Qiao Qianmo stood in the distance, watching Ou Jue talking on the phone in the corridor.
Ou Jue had always been aloof, carrying an air of indifference toward the world.
But at this moment, tenderness seemed to overflow from his gaze.
It must be Xia Xiyan he was talking to.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qianmo clenched her fist and stepped forward. "Ou Jue, you're here! I've been looking for you everywhere."
Ou Jue lifted his eyes and replied coldly, "What's the matter?"
"The doctor is looking for you. He said he wants to discuss the surgery with you," Qiao Qianmo said softly with her head down, her tone tinged with hesitation. "The surgery's tomorrow, and I'm a little scared…"
Ou Jue cast her a indifferent glance and said nothing more. Instead, he spoke into the phone, "The doctor wants me to go over. Be good, Xiyan. Wait for me to come back."
Qiao Qianmo's earlier words were clearly heard on the other end of the phone.
