Miss Zhao thought of Xiao Sheng and hurriedly said, “Dr. Min, the surgery will be at nine tomorrow morning, right? I’ll inform the family in advance.”

As Miss Zhao turned around excitedly, Dr. Min hesitated for a moment before calling out to her, “Don’t be anxious. I’ll reconsider the exact time. Wait for my notice.”

Miss Zhao was a little puzzled. Usually, after the results were out, the family would be informed a day in advance. However, when she saw that Dr. Min didn’t look too happy, she didn’t ask. “Okay.”

When Xiao Sheng returned to get water, he saw Miss Zhao return to the nurses’ station. He went forward and asked, “Miss Zhao, did Doctor Min say how my sister’s checkup result is?”

Looking at Xiao Shengs handsome face, Miss Zhao blushed a little and she replied gently, “Don’t worry, Brother Xiao. Dr. Min said that Xiao Li l s condition is quite good.”

Xiao Sheng didn’t notice Miss Zhao’s abnormality, since he was too focused on the surgery. When he heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he asked expectantly, “Then the surgery is tomorrow, right?”

Miss Zhao froze for a moment before replying, “Wait for my notice.”

Xiao Sheng felt a little uneasy when he heard this ambiguous answer. “Is there any problem?

Seeing that Xiao Sheng was a little anxious, Miss Zhao felt dejected that she had not been of much help. She thought for a moment and replied, “I’ll ask again later. Perhaps it’s because of the operating theater’s usage time or the nursing department’s schedule. They’re probably determining the schedule.

Don’t think too much about it.”

Xiao Sheng didn’t know the specifics, so when he heard this, he nodded at

Miss Zhao with a smile. “Miss Zhao, sorry to trouble you.”

Xiao Shengs smile mesmerized Miss Zhao. When she came back to her senses, she shook her head repeatedly and replied shyly, “It’s fine. I’ll tell you after I ask. By the way, is the girl who came to see Xiao Li a relative of yours?

The reason Miss Zhao thought that Yu Bing was a relative of the Xiao family was that everyone felt that coming to the hospital during the new year was inauspicious, so they wouldn’t come unless they were close relatives.

Miss Zhao realized that Yu Bing looked delicate and fair, like a girl who had been educated in the city. She thought that if they were all in S City, she could interact more in the future. This way, she could befriend the people around Xiao Sheng and maintain a relationship with Xiao Sheng.

Xiao Sheng froze before realizing that she was talking about Yu Bing.

Because their relationship had yet to be officially confirmed, Xiao Sheng replied according to the reason on the village’s permission slip, “She’s an intellectual in our village. She came on a business trip for the factory. When she found out that Xiao Li was undergoing surgery, she came to visit.”

When Miss Zhao heard this, she felt a sense of crisis. However, since Xiao Sheng said that they were from the same village, she must be just here to take a look, so she shouldn’t worry too much about it. She smiled at Xiao Sheng sweetly. “In that case, she’s really diligent. She’s still so busy even during the new year.”

Xiao Sheng smiled, but didn’t continue the conversation. “Then I’ll go in first. Let me know if there’s any news.”

When Xiao Sheng entered the ward, Xiao Li was talking to Xiao Lin. Yu Bing seemed distracted.

After Xiao Sheng placed the kettle in his hand on the table beside Xiao Li l s bed, he saw the few chocolates on the table and he asked curiously, “Where did these chocolates come from?

Xiao Li smiled as she replied, “This is from Sister Zhao.”

Sister Zhao referred to Miss Zhao. When Xiao Li was first hospitalized, she and

Xiao Lin called her the nurse at first, but the other party took the initiative to

ask them to call her differently and they didn’t mind. After all, it was just an address.

Xiao Sheng frowned. “Xiao Li, don’t accept other people’s things. These are very expensive.”

Because the domestic market wasn’t open to foreign countries, foreign products like chocolate weren’t cheap.

Xiao Lin explained, “We rejected her, but Sister Zhao said that today is the first day of the new year.”

It wasn’t good to reject other people’s gifts during the new year, so Xiao Sheng didn’t say anything else.

Yu Bing glanced at Xiao Sheng, who didn’t notice anything amiss, and pursed her lips as she said angrily, “Why blame them? They didn’t call her over.”

When Xiao Sheng heard Yu Bings resentful words, he turned his head slightly. He didn’t know if Yu Bing was angry or not, but he thought for a moment and explained, “I don’t blame them. I was just asking.”

When Yu Bing saw Xiao Shengs innocent expression, her anger dissipated. If she had to blame someone, she could only blame his handsome face. He himself wasn’t the problem. Thus, she didn’t harp on this matter anymore..
