An hour later, the door to the examination room finally opened.
A nurse pushed Ruan Qi out in a wheelchair.
Standing outside the door, Xi Jiu immediately stepped forward. He took hold of the young girl's wheelchair and politely thanked the nurse.
"The test results will be ready in twenty minutes. Sir, you can go directly to the doctor's office then," the nurse said.
Xi Jiu nodded, then pushed Ruan Qi away.
Inside the hospital room.
Xi Jiu picked up the young girl and gently placed her on the bed, carefully tucking her in.
"Baby, rest for a bit. I'll go to the doctor's office and be right back."
Ruan Qi obediently nodded.
Xi Jiu kissed the corner of her lips, then quickly left the room.
Who would have guessed, just after his departure, the little girl lying quietly on the bed like a docile chick suddenly sat up.
She pulled her phone out from under the pillow and quickly sent a WeChat message to Abed.
[Is Little Qi: Abed, where are you?]
