Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Ji Nuan raised her eyes, meeting the gaze of the white silhouette entering the room.

“Hai, Doctor Sheng!” The moment the door opened, Xia Tian raised both her hands, waving to the man in front of her flatteringly.

The man wore the hospital’s traditional white robe. His body was slender and thin like a jade tree. The moment he caught a glimpse of Ji Nuan, his brows furrowed. When he saw Ji Nuan’s cold look, his frown deepened.

“Doctor Sheng, I never had the opportunity to introduce you formally. This is the best friend that I always mention, Ji Nuan.” Xia Tian introduced, gleefully anticipating the chaos to follow.

Doctor Sheng’s lower face was covered entirely by a mask. Only a snow-white forehead and a pair of icy eyes were visible.

In an instant, the room fell into a pin drop silence. Ji Nuan coldly and indifferently looked at him, the corner of her lips hiding her contempt.

The four eyes met. Within two seconds, Doctor Sheng’s cold gaze shifted away from her elegant and imposing face. He calmly said, “We’ve met before. I somewhat remember.”

Xia Tian appeared as though she had chanced upon an amazing opportunity to gossip. She sat up on the bed, opening her mouth to ask more but was quickly cut off by Ji Nuan.

Ji Nuan delicate features carried a hint of ice, but when she opened her mouth, her words sounded teasing, “Doctor Sheng, I plan to help Xia Tian complete the procedures to move to a different hospital today. You are her doctor. We’ll require your signature before we can do so. Please help me to sign your name.”

“Changing hospital?” Doctor Sheng’s cold eyes finally moved toward Ji Nuan. “Does she not want her leg anymore?”

“Why? She can’t?” Ji Nuan faced him, expressionless.

“Right now, her leg cannot be moved carelessly. A small jolt might cause the broken bone to move into a problematic position. If she wants to walk around with her two legs at different lengths or to become a lame person, I don’t mind signing on the papers to discharge her.”

While he spoke, Doctor Sheng’s indifferent yet cold gaze landed on Ji Nuan’s face.

Ji Nuan furrowed her brows imperceptibly.

A fracture, indeed, could not be taken lightly. During recovery, if the position of the bone was incorrect, it would leave a significant impact on Xia Tian in the future.

Although she wanted to guard against the bastard, she also could not allow anything to happen to Xia Tian’s leg.

“It’s all right if we don’t change. In that case, I’ll have to trouble Doctor Sheng to pay more attention to her hospital room. Don’t let those people with unclear intentions come as they please. Right now, the only close friend she has is me. If she’s bored during her stay, Doctor Sheng should take the opportunity while you’re free to come and talk to her. Such a request shouldn’t be out of line, right?”

By the side, Xia Tian had been watching them for quite a while. She had been unable to hear anything, nor notice anything strange throughout their exchange, only managing to catch Ji Nuan’s last words. She immediately glared at her, her face turning green.

Let this ice cube come to the room to chat with me?

Why don’t you just leave me alone!

This Doctor Sheng has never known how to coax patients with sweet words. He was also a big ice mountain. Regardless of what she said, he would rarely respond. If he really came to accompany her, it would most likely become an ice show.

How… how awkward…

Doctor Sheng appearance became colder. “I don’t have the time.”

Xia Tian secretly spoke in her heart: Yes, yes, yes, he doesn’t have the time. There was no need to trouble this doctor to accompany her!

Ji Nuan comfortably curved her lips, suddenly leaning toward Doctor Sheng. Doctor Sheng appeared surprised, and because of her closeness, his eyes shook. In the dazed moment, he could only hear Ji Nuan quietly speaking as though hiding a smile. “A few nights ago, a shocking incident involving both the police and the media happened at Cheng Dong bar. At that time, I happened to pass by. If I didn’t see wrongly, you were also there.”

The man in front of her had his face shielded by the mask. He glanced at her, the expression in his eyes unchanging and revealing no surprise.

“A doctor actually has the time to go to a bar at night? Who knows why he did so,” Ji Nuan lazily said, glancing at him.

He only returned her gaze silently.

“Can’t you be more considerate to a lonely patient lying on the hospital bed? From the beginning of her stay, Xia Tian has been under your care. I think Doctor Sheng should be alert to both the patient’s emotions and her physical health. ‘Medical benevolence,’ no?” Ji Nuan curved her lips, but her smile did not reach her eyes.

Since the two of them were whispering to each other, Xia Tian could not hear anything. She was impatient to the point of wanting to jump towards them. However, right now, she could not even reach for the crutch near the bed, not to mention jumping down the bed. She could only glare unhappily in Ji Nuan’s direction.

“I heard about the two successors of Sheng family; one has cancer while the other has been imprisoned for stealing business information.” Ji Nuan furrowed her brows. “I doubt you’ll be able to be an orthopedic doctor for long.”

Doctor Sheng’s gaze darkened. “Ji Nuan, what do you mean by this?”

“My meaning is simple. I want you to take good care of my friend and arrange for her to have a room where no one can easily disturb her. If even the smallest harm comes to her, I will reveal what happened during those years without hesitation. Right now, it’s the vital period when you can formally return to the Sheng family. You need a clean, good reason to do so. Yet, with one word, I can cause your reputation to burn down.”

Finishing her words, Ji Nuan glanced at him coolly. “How about it, Doctor Sheng? Right now, my character is not as simple as the Ji Nuan back then. It’s just a small request, won’t you agree to it?”

Doctor Sheng did not speak. After a moment, his tone fell, sounding apathetic. “You seem very aware of the Sheng family’s affairs.”

Ji Nuan lowly chuckled. “I’ve already said the things that need to be said, Doctor Sheng.”

—-

Ten minutes later, Ji Nuan received a call and left. Xia Tian sat on the hospital bed, appearing dumbstruck as she stared at the man who had one hand stuffed in his robe pocket as he made no move to leave.

“Um, Doctor Sheng…” Xia Tian looked at him, bewildered. “Do you want to continue with the examination? Or…”

The man glanced at her; his gaze was indifferent as though it contained no emotion whatsoever.

Ss… What did Ji Nuan intend to do by leaving this ice cube in her hospital room?

After a long moment, she still did not receive a reply. Xia Tian obediently and defenselessly sat on the hospital bed, tugging on the blanket. Her gaze occasionally flitted towards the ice mountain near the door.

After a moment that felt as long as a century, Doctor Sheng suddenly said huskily soft, “What do you want to chat about?”

“…”

Xia Tian almost jumped up from the bed. She was flabbergasted as she stared at him. Her mouth moved for some time before she swallowed. She carefully asked, “… we’re really chatting, ah?”

The man frowned, his gaze as cold as ever, and did not speak.

Who would have thought that he would actually agree to Ji Nuan’s request. As though aware of her sudden fortune, Xia Tian suddenly said, “Then, chatting is not that important, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you, but… can you remove your mask for me to take a look?”

Doctor Sheng coldly and indifferently stared at her. A moment later, he silently raised his hand to remove the mask.

Then, under Xia Tian’s dumbstruck look, he walked expressionlessly out of the hospital room.
