Chapter 628 Extra - I sprained my ankle
As expected, Fang Tong had another dream that night.
It's those strange dreams again. In the dreams, there's still that man, a courtyard, a swing set, a garden, and a sky full of dazzling fireworks...
In short, she felt completely groggy when she woke up in the morning, and her mind was not clear at all.
She went to the restroom to wash her face, then checked her bank account balance on her phone before finally regaining her energy.
Wash up, put on makeup, change clothes, and go out.
When I brought breakfast to the hospital, Fang Miao was still asleep.
She put her things down, told the caregiver to eat first, and then hurriedly left the ward with two steamed buns and a bag of milk.
What a coincidence! I ran into the person I didn't want to see.
She encountered Chen Ci as he came out of the elevator while she was waiting for it.
The man was dressed in blue casual clothes, his brows furrowed with deep weariness and impatience, but he still smiled the moment he saw her.
Fang Tong.
Fang Tong smiled at him and said, "Dr. Chen."
"How is Fang Miao?" Chen Ci asked.
"Still sleeping... Are you getting off the elevator? I need to go down."
Chen Ci retreated back into the elevator: "I originally wanted to go see Fang Miao, but since he's asleep, I'll come over this afternoon."
Fang Tong nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped into the elevator.
"I heard from Fang Miao that you haven't been working overtime lately?" Chen Ci asked.
Fang Tong nodded: "Mm."
“I usually go into the lab in the afternoon and don’t come out until midnight, so I haven’t run into you yet.”
Fang Tong nodded again: "Yes. Thank you for your hard work."
Chen Ci felt that her tone was a bit distant. He glanced at her a few more times, but all he saw was her slightly lowered eyebrows and eyes. She seemed to be in low spirits.
He raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Fang Miao's condition has not worsened and is even improving slightly. There are new developments in the lab and on my end, but I haven't been able to contact my teacher yet."
His tone was gentle yet reassuring: "Don't worry, I'm here for you."
Fang Tong paused for a moment, then suddenly turned around and bowed deeply to him: "Thank you, Dr. Chen, you've gone to so much trouble."
Chen Ci was startled. Just as he was about to help her up, the elevator arrived at the first floor. She straightened up and said, "I'm in a hurry to get to work, so I'll go now. Goodbye, Dr. Chen."
Chen Ci only had time to wave before Fang Tong strode away.
Even after leaving the hospital, as she walked down the subway line, her feelings remained complicated.
Why did it come to this?
Chen Ci had helped her and Fang Miao a lot in any way, so why did she have to speak to him like that?
Although it wasn't too outrageous, but...
Fang Tong himself had already begun to regret it.
But what could she do after she had already said it?
With these frustrated and complicated feelings in mind, coupled with not sleeping well last night, Fang Tong twisted her ankle when she walked from the subway exit to Yaju.
The pain was so excruciating that she couldn't even stand up.
If it weren't for the lamppost next to her, she would have sat down on the ground.
She hugged the streetlight for a full five minutes before the excruciating pain in her foot finally disappeared, but it was replaced by a faint ache in her bones.
My feet hurt when they touch the ground, and I can't put any weight on them at all.
She could only limp along, wearing high heels, inching forward step by step.
Across the street, Ye Zhiyuan was driving towards the group's headquarters when he glanced at the other side of the road at the traffic light and spotted Fang Tong.
Without hesitation, he made a U-turn at the next intersection, accelerated, and stopped just in time next to Fang Tong.
