Chapter 331: Chapter 331 There is no middleman to make a difference

Jiang Zhe had still been holding a mouthful of mushroom extract, but she didn’t resist Cai’er and took it into her mouth.

She simply lacked the energy even to chew and slowly closed her eyes.

Seeing that she was just overly exhausted, Qin Jingchen’s heart’s fluctuations began to settle, and he sat by her side, keeping watch over her.

Although Jiang Zhe was usually lazy, she rarely showed this level of fatigue.

It was clear that the surgery hadn’t been easy.

In the hospital.

Qin Feng and the child, safe and sound.

"Auntie Chun, go rest with grandma," Qin Feng said to Tiao Chun.

Then she asked, "What about Jiang Zhe?"

"Jingchen is with her," Fen Ye laughed, "Don’t worry. How is the nephew?"

Qin Feng knew better than anyone else Jiang Zhe’s current condition—stepping back from death’s door by a hair’s breadth, nobody understood better than her the effort Jiang Zhe had put in.

She smiled, "The child is over there."

Fen Ye went to see the child.

Outside the door, many doctors were also looking around.

They all were waiting, yet they didn’t know who was performing surgery on Qin Feng.

Seeing that mother and child were safe, everyone indeed was quite surprised.

The state of Qin Feng’s health was more or less understood by everyone.

They all knew that if it were them conducting the surgery, whether they’d even have a fifty percent chance of success was still doubtful.

Old Madam Qin, sitting in the next ward, had relaxed her spirit, yet her emotions hadn’t subsided.

At this moment, she very much wanted to see Jiang Zhe.

Tiao Chun laughed, "The young master is with the young madam now, and the young madam probably doesn’t have time to see us."

"That so," the old madam felt relieved, "Find me a recording of Xiaozhe’s voice to listen to."

Tiao Chun had already organized all the voice messages sent by Jiang Zhe on the old madam’s phone, enabling her to play them anytime.

As the voice message played, Jiang Zhe’s level and utterly calm voice emerged, cool and detached, sweeping away people’s anxiety.

...

Jiang Zhe slept for a very long time.

A sensation of slight coldness came over her body, and she wrapped the blanket tighter around herself, leaving only her head exposed.

Her hair was a bit fuzzy, spreading messily, and Qin Jingchen reached out to ruffle it.

This was something he wouldn’t do when she was awake.

Perhaps sensing the warmth of his palm, Jiang Zhe snuggled closer into his hand.

With her eyes closed, she no longer looked like a fox but more like a little kitten.

She lost a lot of her aloofness and coldness and seemed more approachable and warm.

Qin Jingchen’s fingers moved slightly, twining her hair around his fingertips, lowering his gaze, his sculpted jawline tensing into a beautiful straight line.

She continued to lean into his palm, until her whole face rested on his hand, and then she fell back into a comfortable sleep.

Qin Jingchen chuckled as her face fitted perfectly in his palm.

Finding her rare dependency endearing, he lay down beside her and simply took her into his embrace.

The exhausted girl rested against his chest without resisting and continued to sleep deeply, accompanied by the sound of his heartbeat.

When Jiang Zhe awoke, she opened her eyes to meet Qin Jingchen’s gaze.

"Awake?" Qin Jingchen asked.

Jiang Zhe shifted, and a plant-like freshness emanated from her mouth.

As her consciousness gathered, she realized she was sleeping in Qin Jingchen’s embrace.

It wasn’t uncomfortable; it was just that she had slept a bit too long, and her limbs felt somewhat numb and weak.

Her voice was languid, "How long have I been asleep?"

"A day and a night," Qin Jingchen handed her some clothes, "Get up and have something to eat?"

"Mm." Jiang Zhe responded and closed her eyes again.

Qin Jingchen didn’t move, continuing to hold her in his arms.

A moment later, she stretched her arms and legs.

"I’ll go get you something to eat." Qin Jingchen got up.

Jiang Zhe didn’t refuse, and Qin Jingchen pulled open the curtains.

The sunlight was just right, filling the entire room. Jiang Zhe blinked slightly, adjusting to the bright light.

She didn’t ask about Qin Feng’s condition and went to the bathroom.

When she returned, Qin Jingchen had already brought breakfast. The warm, sweet taste of soy milk quickly invigorated her spirit.

As she bit into a shumai, she took a large sip of soy milk. Seeing that Qin Jingchen wasn’t eating, she asked, "Aren’t you eating?"

Her raised hand was right in front of Qin Jingchen.

Qin Jingchen bit into the shumai from her hand.

Jiang Zhe withdrew her hand, commenting, "How boring."

But when Qin Jingchen came to bite again, she didn’t refuse or object.

So, the man ate breakfast from her hand.

Qin Jingchen spoke up, "My cousin’s family, both mother and child, are in a stable condition. The doctors have done all the checks, and there’s basically no problem."

As expected, Jiang Zhe nodded.

"Going back to school or to the hospital?" Qin Jingchen asked.

"Back to school."

Since the mother and child were fine, other doctors could handle it; there was no need for Jiang Zhe to go over.

On their way downstairs, they happened to run into Fen Ye.

Seeing Jiang Zhe, Fen Ye’s gaze had a few extra shades of difference compared to before.

"Jingchen, I just came back from the hospital. The Tang Family originally said they wanted to come and thank Xiaozhe in person, but I stopped them."

Qin Jingchen nodded, "Block them in the future as well, there’s no need to see them."

"I’ve already passed down the instructions," Fen Ye finished, not avoiding Jiang Zhe, "Many people are asking about the doctor who performed the surgery this time, wanting to ask Xiaozhe for help."

Previously, for the matter of Qin Feng, Qin Jingchen had paid a heavy sum to find the Divine Doctor, and the outside world knew it.

Since Qin Feng was quickly out of danger, all eyes were naturally on Qin Jingchen’s side.

It was a bit like the scene in N Country last time.

Listenting, Jiang Zhe’s expression remained calm, "I won’t help."

"Of course, I’ve already had people refuse. Besides a few individuals, no one knows you were the one who performed the surgery for Sister Feng," Fen Ye had already taken care of the situation.

"You must have prepared a lot for this surgery, right?" Qin Jingchen turned his head to ask her.

"It was okay." Jiang Zhe was feeling better after waking up and didn’t want to talk much else.

She was about to go downstairs, but Qin Jingchen caught her hand, "So for this operation, what do you want?"

He truly cherished her efforts, so he didn’t want her to work for nothing.

This operation.

When he used that term, Jiang Zhe understood that her identity as the Divine Doctor must have been exposed to him a long time ago.

Her previous treatment for Jiang Yunxuan’s eyes—it hadn’t slipped past him after all.

The two of them had an unspoken understanding for so long without pointing it out.

Qin Jingchen had gambled correctly, confirming her identity and knowing she wouldn’t ignore Qin Feng’s situation.

But at the same time, he was in her debt, by not clarifying the relationship and she hadn’t stood idly by.

Still, it was mostly his concern for her— for her sacrifices for this operation.

There was a glint in Qin Jingchen’s eyes, flickering slightly. The things she would do for Qin Feng had only one purpose, and that was him.

Believing this, the man’s eyes grew even brighter.

"You were willing to fork out a billion, just transfer it to me directly, no middleman making a profit," Jiang Zhe pulled her hand out of his palm.
