But, is this hospitalâs ward even allowed Mengqi to come in?
âMengqiâ¦â
âWoof! Woof! Woof!â Mengqi barked a few times, as if responding to her.
âDid you bring it back?â
âWhat else?â he retorted.
Gu Qiangwei was grateful in her heart.
After all, she did not know this man before, and she had even offended him in the mall.
âThank you,â she said sincerely.
Yet, these three words stirred a strange emotion in Qin Sijueâs heart, one that even he could not fully understand.
He did not respond to her and turned to leave the ward.
As she watched his figure disappear from the door of the ward, Gu Qiangwei withdrew her gaze and looked at Mengqi.
Its spirit seemed much better than before.
Could it be that he had taken it to the hospital when they had lost sight of each other yesterday?
Until lunchtime, Gu Qiangwei did not see Qin Sijue again, and lunch was also brought to her by a nurse.
âExcuse me, when can I be discharged?â
She wanted to make a phone call to her company to ask a colleague to request leave for her, but she realized her luggage and purse were not with her.
The nurse smiled at her, âIn two days.â
Having said that, the nurse turned to leave.
Gu Qiangwei couldnât help but call her back, âThenâ¦â
She stopped mid-sentence, as she did not even know Qin Sijueâs name.
Since he had saved her, shouldnât her belongings be with him?
The nurse turned back, staring at her to finish her sentence.
âThe person who brought me to the hospital, when will he come?â
The nurse did not know Qin Sijue either and naturally had no idea when he would return.
âIâm not sure about that.â
âOh, thank you.â
Gu Qiangwei thanked her, but she ate her lunch somewhat distractedly.
She needed to retrieve her phone tonight as she had to work as a translator for an executive.
âWhatâs the matter? The food not to your liking?â
Just as she was thinking, the door suddenly pushed open.
Gu Qiangwei looked up and saw a familiar figure walk in.
âItâs you.â
âHmm, this hospital is mine, but Iâm rarely here,â he said.
A young doctor owning his own hospital?
Hearing Li Yuanâs words, Gu Qiangwei was taken aback.
âIs the food not to your taste?â Looking at the food in her hand and noticing her sporadic eating, Li Yuan couldnât help but ask.
âNo, itâs just that I wanted to ask about⦠that⦠what you called some âJueâ, when will he come?â
Staring at her, Li Yuan couldnât help but laugh, âAre you missing him?â
Gu Qiangwei was shocked and quickly responded, âNo! Iâm not missing him, he and I arenât close, itâs not like what you think.â
âIs that so?â Looking at her face, Li Yuan seemed unconvinced.
Having known Jue for many years, this was the first time he had seen him take an interest in a woman; it couldnât possibly be a casual relationship.
Or was it that this woman was someone he met in Country A?
âNo,â Gu Qiangwei looked up, glanced at him, and responded with utter sincerity.
âDo you really know when he will come?â she looked up and asked again.
Li Yuan slightly pursed his lips and with a frown replied, âI really donât know about that; his schedule is unpredictable, no one knows when he might be free or busy.â
Gu Qiangwei was perplexed; based on what he said, would retrieving her belongings be difficult?
âThen, do you have his number?â
Li Yuan paused, âYou want to call him?â
