Chapter 221: 221. What is Lu Moqing planning?

After quickly washing up in the bathroom, she was about to look for Shen Zeheng to handle the discharge procedure, but the door was pushed open from the outside.

Looking up, she saw Lu Moqing still wearing the clothes sent to the hospital by the servant yesterday. It was apparent that he really hadn’t left and had slept here for a night?

Her gaze moved imperceptibly to the folding chair by the bed, which could barely accommodate her height, and her heart filled with complex emotions.

It was hard to imagine what it felt like to squeeze onto that chair for a whole night with his tall and broad frame.

What was Lu Moqing trying to achieve by doing this?

But Lu Moqing didn’t notice the complexity in Qiao Xu’s eyes. Seeing her awake, he walked up to her, "You’re up so early. Don’t you want to sleep a little more?"

His deliberately gentle voice made Qiao Xu frown inadvertently. Feeling his approaching presence, she felt somewhat uneasy.

Without a word, she walked past him towards the bed, pressed the call bell, and then turned to look at Lu Moqing, saying, "Thank you for bringing me to the hospital yesterday."

At first, she thought that the next sentence would be to ask him to leave, but after waiting for a few seconds, Qiao Xu said nothing more after expressing her gratitude.

This suffocating silence made Lu Moqing feel a little uncomfortable. He raised his hand to check the time and said, "It’s still early. You should lie down and rest for a while."

"No need, I have urgent matters to attend to."

Thinking that her mobile phone should still be in Xia Yumo’s car and not knowing if anyone from the company was looking for her, she needed to get back to the company as soon as possible.

Hearing about the urgent matters, Lu Moqing naturally thought of the news this morning. Qiao Xu had just woken up and should be unaware of it.

"You’re not even well yet. What can’t you let others handle?"

A few hints of displeasure appeared on Lu Moqing’s face.

Qiao Xu didn’t want to argue with him, and just as she was about to speak, Shen Zeheng entered the room after hearing the bell.

Seeing Lu Moqing still in the room, Shen Zeheng’s face showed undisguised disgust.

Without dwelling on Lu Moqing for too long, he turned to look at Qiao Xu and asked, "Why are you up so early?"

"I’m fine now. I want to be discharged today."

Qiao Xu said directly. As a doctor herself, she knew her own condition.

Shen Zeheng wanted to ask her to stay for another day for observation, but seeing Qiao Xu’s determination, he reluctantly said, "After eight o’clock, let’s take another CT scan. If there’s no problem, I’ll handle the discharge for you."

"Alright."

Qiao Xu didn’t insist and nodded at Shen Zeheng’s words.

Shen Zeheng didn’t leave right away. Since he was on the night shift, he could already clock off now. Checking the time, he asked Qiao Xu:

"Are you hungry? What would you like for breakfast? I’ll go buy it for you."

Just as Qiao Xu was about to say it wasn’t necessary, Lu Moqing next to her couldn’t bear to listen anymore.

Did Shen Zeheng think he was dead?

Before Qiao Xu could speak, he walked to her side, keeping a distance between the two of them, and said, "No need, I will buy breakfast for her."

Shen Zeheng glanced at Lu Moqing indifferently, ignored him, and looked back at Qiao Xu, "What would you like to eat?"

The two men appeared calm but were actually at daggers drawn, making Qiao Xu frown.

Not wanting them to argue in the hospital ward, Qiao Xu shook her head and said, "No need, I don’t have much of an appetite. You must be exhausted after working the night shift. You should go home and rest."
