Chapter 299

Inside the hospital.

The attending physician spoke with Qiao Muting about Song Ziqi's current condition.

Yesterday's surgery was indeed very successful, but today, for some unknown reason, the patient's mood is very low, which is greatly affecting her post-operative recovery.

"This situation usually stems from the patient's own psychological issues, so Mr. Qiao needs to find a way to have a chat with the patient."

Qiao Muting went to the intensive care unit afterward.

Song Ziqi was still sleeping at first, but perhaps sensing someone beside her, she opened her eyes.

The moment she saw Qiao Muting, she thought she was dreaming.

"Brother Mu Ting..."

Is it really Brother Mu Ting?

She thought Brother Mu Ting only had eyes for Shu Xia and would no longer care about her.

Her eye sockets suddenly turned red at this moment, and the grievance in her heart seemed to crawl up instantly.

Seeing Song Ziqi's eyes turn red in an instant, Qiao Muting frowned imperceptibly, "The attending physician spoke to me about your condition; did you suddenly think of something that affected your mood?"

Song Ziqi bit her lip, feeling even more aggrieved, and her eyes turned even redder, but she knew some things could not be said; she just shook her head and said, "I was just a little scared, scared that my body wouldn't recover well and that I would be a burden to Brother Mu Ting in the future. Also, school is about to face graduation, and I'm afraid it will affect my graduation."

"You don't need to worry about these things. Your surgery was very successful, and your school has contacted me; you don't need to overthink the graduation matter, you will graduate smoothly," Qiao Muting reassured her.

Song Ziqi couldn't help but shed tears, "Thank you, Brother Mu Ting."

"Rest well, you will be able to be discharged soon," Qiao Muting said.

Thinking of Qiao Muting's closeness to Shu Xia this morning, Song Ziqi's heart tightened, and she softly made a request, "Can Brother Mu Ting stay and keep me company?"

"Mm, alright. I'll stay with you until visiting hours are over," Qiao Muting agreed.

Song Ziqi got her wish, and the discomfort in her heart vanished into thin air.

In his heart, her position should be irreplaceable.

As long as she wanted him to keep her company, he would definitely agree to her.

"Isn't Brother Mu Ting going back to Jing City soon?" Song Ziqi asked.

He put down so many matters at Qiao Group to come specifically to accompany her for surgery; how many people would envy that?

Every minute and every second of his time is precious.

Thinking this, a sweet smile appeared on Song Ziqi's lips.

"I need to go back in two days. Zhang Tezhu will arrange all your follow-up matters; if you need anything, call Zhang Tezhu," Qiao Muting nodded.

He had just asked Zhang Tezhu to book flight tickets for him and Shu Xia to return to Jing City together.

When they were on the boat, Shu Xia said she would return to Jing City in two days.

He calculated the time and realized he could go back with her.

Hearing Qiao Muting say he would return in two days, Song Ziqi pursed her lips, "Alright, I will take good care of myself. Once I finish my graduation matters, I will return to Jing City. Then Brother Mu Ting won't have to come to K City so often, and I can also take care of Grandma after I go back."

Hearing about Grandma, Qiao Muting's expression softened slightly, "Alright, take care of yourself."

Seeing that Qiao Muting looked better than yesterday, Song Ziqi immediately smiled and said, "Brother Mu Ting really listened to me and rested well. You look much better today, and your eyes aren't red anymore."

Qiao Muting was stunned for a moment, thinking of how he had held Shu Xia after the events of last night and slept until morning almost without dreams; that feeling of his whole body being refreshed.

He knew very well that it was because he slept while holding Shu Xia that his insomnia had been relieved.

"I did rest early and sleep well last night," Qiao Muting thought of the feeling of holding Shu Xia in his arms, his heart softening, and even his usually cold and noble facial contours softened by three parts.

Song Ziqi believed it was her credit, "Brother Mu Ting must rest early in the future too. Health is the capital of revolution; if Brother Mu Ting suffers from insomnia every day, even the best body will be worn out."
