Song Mai didn't wake up until the afternoon of the next day.

Although she was conscious, she was seriously injured and had been relying on drugs to sustain her life for so many days without eating or drinking. Her body was extremely weak.

The nurses in the intensive care unit followed Jiang Jibai's instructions and kept an eye on Song Mai's condition.

As soon as she saw Song Mai wake up, she rushed to Jiang Jibai's office like flying.

"Doctor Jiang, Miss Song Mai is awake!"

Hearing this, Jiang Jibai ran to the intensive care unit without saying a word.

Song Mai rolled his eyes and looked around.

She didn't know how long she had been unconscious, let alone where she was.

She felt dazed, so the moment she saw Jiang Jibai she thought she was back in Nandu.

"Dr. Jiang?"

Jiang Jibai smiled gently: "Long time no see, Miss Song."

Song Mai's face was pale. Maybe it was because she had been unconscious for too long, but even her facial expression had become stiff. She wanted to smile, but it was difficult to do so when she pulled the corners of her mouth.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

She had a lot of questions to ask, such as what time it was, what day it was, where Chu Xing had gone...

But Jiang Jibai interrupted her just as she opened her mouth.

"I know you have a lot of questions, but don't ask them yet. You are weak now, and talking too much at once will be very exhausting. I will check you first. Once I make sure you are fine, I can transfer you to the general ward."

Song Mai nodded and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

After a series of examinations, it was determined that her body functions had returned to normal, but her wounds had not yet fully healed, so she needed to stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation.

When Song Mai heard that she would have to stay in the hospital for a few more days, her face instantly drooped.

She looked at Jiang Jibai worriedly:

"Doctor Jiang, what time is it now?"

Jiang Jibai said as he arranged for a nurse to take her to the ward: "September 23rd."

Upon hearing this, Song Mai's eyes suddenly widened.

So her vacation was over for two days.

Doesn't that mean she is absent from work now?

She was extremely anxious. When the nurse pushed her out of the CT examination room, Chu Xing was already waiting for her at the door.

Chu Xing was originally queuing to pay the fee, and he immediately rushed over when he heard that Song Mai had woken up.

However, when he arrived, Jiang Jibai had already arranged for her to go for a check-up, so he had to wait here.

Seeing the woman he had been thinking about day and night finally alive in front of him, the man couldn't help but want to hug her tightly, but she was still lying on the hospital bed and couldn't move at all, so he had to hold back.

"how do you feel?"

He asked her gently, and naturally helped the nurse to push her to the ward.

There is a deep longing in his eyes that cannot be dissolved.

Song Mai's eyes turned red when he saw him. It seemed that he had not had a good rest in the past few days. He had lost a lot of weight and looked very haggard. He didn't even shave and looked a little disheveled.

"I'm fine. Thank you for your hard work these days..."

When she said this, her voice was choked with sobs and a tearful tone.

Chu Xing immediately panicked.

"Be obedient and stop crying. You just woke up and your body hasn't recovered yet. Don't be so emotional. I'm fine. It's not hard."

Although he said so, Song Mai understood how hard it would be to be so.

It has been a week since the accident. Song Mai could tell how he had gotten through this week just by looking at his appearance.

When he returned to the ward, Song Mai saw the words printed on the corner of the quilt: Zicheng Hospital.

She was stunned: "Am I still in Purple City now?"

Chu Xing nodded: "After you were injured, the ambulance sent you here. We immediately performed surgery on you because your condition was critical. You didn't wake up after the surgery and couldn't be transferred back to Nandu. In addition, the police still needed your cooperation in taking a statement, so you stayed here until now."

Song Mai was puzzled. If she was in Zicheng Hospital, how could she see Jiang Jibai?

She remembered that he was clearly from Nandu People's Hospital.

She frowned: "Then Doctor Jiang..."

Chu Xing sat down beside the bed, picked up an apple, and peeled it methodically with his slender and beautiful fingers.

"I asked him to come. The medical level in Zicheng is not as good as that in Nandu. You are so seriously injured. You need a doctor with high medical skills and familiarity."

Song Mai also knew that what he said was right. He did this for her sake and hoped that she would receive the best treatment.

But Jiang Jibai is such a famous doctor, but he came here just because of a word from him. How big a favor does he owe him?

She was touched, but also a little worried:

"I want to talk to Dr. Jiang. I want to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible."

[I have already requested seven days of leave, and now I have to add another seven days to the seven days. Not to mention how much salary will be deducted, I am not sure whether the company will approve the leave.]

Chu Xing heard her thoughts and touched the top of the woman's head.

"Don't worry, you've already applied for leave from your company. Health is the most important thing. You can't let work affect your health."

Song Mai finally felt relieved. She consoled herself in her heart that part of her salary had already been deducted this month, and she would not be able to get the full attendance bonus. It would be better to just let it go, take care of her health, and start making money when she returns.

But after looking at the exquisite interior decoration of the ward, she hesitated and spoke:

"I'll give you the medical expenses when I get back. I don't know where I threw my phone, so I can't transfer the money now. I still want to change the ward. I really don't need to live in such a good ward."

I don't know how much it would cost to stay here for a day.

She had already had a lot of salary deducted this month, and the little money she had saved was probably not enough to cover the medical expenses. How could she afford to stay in such a good ward?

Song Mai couldn't help but get anxious when he thought of this.

The man cut the peeled apple into small pieces, pierced them with toothpicks, and fed them to Song Mai bit by bit.

"Don't worry. We have helped the Purple City Police solve a major problem this time. Those people are wanted criminals with a high reward. The reward is enough to pay for the medical expenses. In addition, the Purple City Police will be fully responsible for all the expenses of your hospitalization this time, so you don't have to worry. Just stay here peacefully."

Song Mai then nodded and slowly loosened his clenched hands.

Chu Xing took care of her carefully, with undisguised tenderness in his eyes.

Song Mai took small bites of the apple. Being stared at in such a way, she felt her cheeks getting hot. She lowered her eyes and dared not look at him.

And that pale, almost transparent little face finally had some color.

"I can just do it myself."

She raised her hand to take the toothpick with the apple on it from the man's hand, but because she couldn't stand up, she couldn't take it accurately, so she grabbed the man's hand instead.
