Hearing that the old man had awakened, Qin Jijing rose to greet him upstairs.
Jiang Ni wanted to accompany him, but Qin Jijing did not agree, giving her a reassuring look.
"You should rest well first."
Doctor Ji didn't leave. Seeing this, he added, "Once you go up, it probably won't be long before you get sent out. The old man definitely wants to talk to him alone."
Jiang Ni thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.
She silently lay back down on the bed.
After Qin Jijing left, Doctor Ji withdrew his gaze and looked toward the bundled figure on the bed, hesitating before speaking, "Xie Qiao was here just now."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ni opened her eyes, a look of confusion in them, "Just now? While I was asleep? How did he come early?"
"Yes." Doctor Ji pulled up a chair and sat down, "He just left."
The meaning of just left was...
Jiang Ni furrowed her brows, staring intently at him. Doctor Ji nodded, "Yes, they ran into each other."
