Finally, as the various medical personnel dispersed and headed in, Ji Nuan approached her from behind. "Miss Shi, are you all right? You're covered in so much blood. If you're also injured, go get it checked out. Are the people inside your friends? I'll stay here and talk to the doctor for you, so quickly go get your wounds checked."

"I'm fine." Shi Niange turned around, raising her hand for Ji Nuan to see the blood on them. "I'm not injured. It's their blood. The ones injured are my chauffeur and my assistant. They're heavily injured. I'm fine."

At this moment, several reporters had rushed into the hospital. While taking photos of the situation inside, they approached them to ask: "Excuse me, are the two of you friends or the family of the injured? Can anyone give us the details on the serious car accident that occurred on Yuan Chang main road..."

Outside the emergency room, the situation was suddenly thrown into chaos due to the abrupt appearance of the reporters.

Shi Niange did not speak. Ji Nuan was about to step in between her and the reporters when the voice of a man came from behind the crowd. "Scram."

That voice was shockingly cold. Ji Nuan turned around in surprise to see Qin Siting standing there expressionlessly in a white robe.

The instant Qin Siting showed up, the entire floor of medical personnel all fell silent. No one dared to speak up.

Those reporters faltered for a moment. When they turned back to see such an impolite doctor, they immediately raised their cameras toward him.

However, before they could even speak up, the hospital security guards charged out from behind Qin Siting. They chased the reporters out while sternly saying, "The emergency room isn't a place reporters can record as they please. Quickly get out, don't block up this place. You'll delay the doctors from giving patients the treatment they need. Leave!"

In the next instant, the surroundings finally became peaceful.

Qin Siting glanced coldly at Ji Nuan before shifting his gaze carelessly onto Shi Niange's figure behind her. When he saw the pale Shi Niange standing there silently, he approached.

The man's voice was low, heavy, and cold. "Where are you injured?"

These words were directed at Shi Niange.

Shi Niange clearly did not expect that the hospital the ambulance had brought them to was the one Qin Siting worked in.

She was silent for a moment. Her expression did not change as she calmly replied, "I'm not hurt."

When she replied, Shi Niange's eyes did not move to meet Qin Siting's. Her attitude was cold and mild, just like Qin Siting's.

Qin Siting shifted his hand to his coat pocket. His cold eyes scanned her body while his lips turned up in a thin, cold smile. "That's true. Miss Shi's life has always been stubborn."

Hearing this, Shi Niange abruptly turned to look up at him. When she met Qin Siting's cold gaze, she remained calm but said coldly, "Right now, both my chauffeur and assistant are injured. Their life and death cannot be confirmed. It's fine if Doctor Qin is against me, but please don't choose such a time to add hail to snow."

Qin Siting sneered, before chuckling coldly. "I really couldn't tell. Miss Shi actually has some conscience when dealing with the people around her. That conscience of yours eaten by a dog, did it regrow bit by bit when you were in America?"

Shi Niange did not reply, staring at him.

Ji Nuan did not wish to interfere with their feelings but found that she could not continue listening to this.

She moved closer to Qin Siting's side, softly saying, "Doctor Qin, when Miss Shi ran in, she was stumbling slightly. She might have injured her ankle or her legs. Right now, her complexion is quite poor. Although the blood on her body isn't hers, she still suffered a fright. You're a man, can you not choose such a time to stab someone's heart?"

In such a situation, he actually sprinkled salt on Shi Niange's wounds? She really could not tell that this man, who usually held a surgical knife to save lives, was actually so cold-blooded and cruel.

"Fright? What does a fright count for?" Qin Siting's said coldly and meaningfully. "A person with a stone-cold heart is impervious to ten thousand arrows. If my few words can stab her heart, she wouldn't be Shi Niange."

Once he finished his words, he turned to leave.

Although Ji Nuan wanted to accompany Shi Niange, whose physical and mental state both appeared disheveled, the two of them were not on close terms. Furthermore, the point of her visit today was to express her gratitude to Doctor Qin. After hesitating for a moment, she turned and walked out of the crowd.

Qin Siting had already entered the elevator. Before the door could close, Ji Nuan rushed to enter.

Qin Siting glanced mildly at her. His gaze was cold and indifferent, and he clearly did not have the mood to speak up.

The elevator gradually rose. Ji Nuan glanced at the tall and cold man dressed in a large white robe. She smiled teasingly. "You're clearly concerned, yet you insist on acting indifferent. I suppose the hearts of men can also be considered a needle in the ocean, impossible to grasp."

Qin Siting's expression was heavy. He did not speak.

"Isn't your clinic on the sixteenth floor? This elevator moves so slowly. It even stops on the other floors occasionally. You came down so quickly from the sixteenth floor. You must have ran down the stairs, using the quickest possible speed to arrive at the first floor. The moment you saw her, after confirming that she wasn't the one heavily injured, you immediately began acting as though you wanted to freeze the other party into an icicle. Why is there a need to do so..."

Qin Siting coldly glanced at her. "Do all women speak so much?"

Ji Nuan raised her brows slightly and did not speak any further. After all, she did not understand the situation well and could not say more.

"Aren't your hands already healed? Why did you suddenly come to the hospital?" Qin Siting changed the topic, glancing at her impolitely.

"To express my gratitude, ah. Previously, you helped to bandage my wounds. The medication and scar removal cream you prescribed were both handy. Furthermore, you also helped to analyze my dad's medication. Recently, I've been troubling you for so many matters, so I wanted to express my gratitude properly."

Qin Siting snorted indifferently. "There's no need to thank me. If you want to thank someone, go back and thank your man."

Seeing Ji Nuan's suspicious gaze, he coldly reprimanded, "I'm busy to death every day. If your man didn't constantly bother me to settle your problems quickly, those medications might still be stuck in my cabinets, unanalyzed until the end of time."

Ji Nuan: "..."

He sure was honest and straightforward.

"That may be so, but I've still troubled you. I originally wanted to treat you to a meal, but since you're so busy, let's wait till you have more time." Ji Nuan's expression changed, and she suddenly smiled. "Jingshen and I will treat you. We can call Nan Heng along as well as Miss Shi..."

Hearing the words Miss Shi, Qin Siting immediately sneered coldly. "I won't go!"

Ji Nuan: "..."

——

Qin Siting's attitude today was as though he had been stung by a bee. He completely did not give her any face and was too lazy even to display basic courtesy. Ji Nuan chose not to stay there to add fuel to the fire.

In the evening, when she returned to the Yu Garden, Auntie Chen informed her that Mo Jingshen had already returned for quite some time.

Ji Nuan went up the stairs and returned to their room. She pushed open the bedroom door to hear water flowing in their bathroom.

She had only just entered when, abruptly, Mo Jingshen's handphone, placed on the bedroom couch, began to vibrate.
