Zhao Nan and Xia Xin’s unspoken understanding made it clear that Xia Xin also disliked Tang Hai. So, Zhao Nan straightforwardly said, “We thank you for your gifts and trouble. You may go home and rest now. I’ll take care of the rest.”
Tang Hai wanted to say something, but Zhao Nan noticed the reclining chair behind him and commented, “Mister, you are so considerate. You even set up a reclining chair for me. Thank you.”
Without giving him a chance to speak, Zhao Nan ushered Tang Hai out of the ward.
Tang Hail s expression grew increasingly sinister, but he left without saying anything more.

Xia Xin agreed, and while she was at it, she glanced at the lady in the room. Realizing she had caused an awkward situation, the lady didn’t dare to say anything more and obediently closed her eyes to sleep.
Worried that Zhao Nan wouldn’t be comfortable sleeping, Xia Xin proposed, “How about we both sleep on the bed? You have work tomorrow, and that reclining chair won’t be very comfortable to sleep in.”
Zhao Nan casually replied, “It’s fine. You know my sleep quality, even if the sky falls, it won’t wake me up. It’s just a reclining chair, not the floor. It won’t affect my sleep. Rest up, and if there’s anything tonight, remember to call me.”
The next morning, Zhao Nan stayed with Xia Xin until they completed the X-ray. The X-ray showed that Xia Xin’s leg bones were fine, and the displaced bone had already been attached. She just needed to avoid intense exercise for about a month.
After the examination, Xia Xin took the X-ray and the prescribed medication and went to pick up Layle to go home together.
At her doorstep, Xia Xin noticed a sticky note stuck on the door. There was nothing written on it, only a paw print of a dog. Xia Xin recognized it as Bobo’s paw print, left by Jing MO and Bobo when they came to her home and couldn’t find her. However, she didn’t know when it was left. It seemed like it had been there for quite a while since the edges were curling.
Thinking about how the seemingly aloof Jing MO would engage in such a childish game with a dog like Bobo, Xia Xin couldn’t help but smile. She took the sticky note down, straightened it, and put it into her pocket before entering her home.
Before entering, Xia Xin felt a bit uneasy. Since the last time Zhang Liang caused a scene here, she hadn’t been home. The place was probably a mess, and she didn’t want to deal with cleaning while nursing her injured leg.
However, to Xia Xin’s surprise, the house was very clean and tidy, obviously
having been meticulously cleaned. But she had no idea who could have done it so thoughtfully. She pondered, ‘Zhao Nan didn’t pay much attention to details, so it probably wasn’t her. Could it have been something I instructed Zhao Nan to do before losing consciousness?’
While Xia Xin was lost in thought, she suddenly smelled the aroma of food. She wondered if she was so hungry that she was hallucinating. She was the only one in the house, so it was weird that she could smell food.
Xia Xin sniffed again carefully, confirming that she wasn’t mistaken. Immediately on high alert, she picked up a broom and cautiously made her way towards the kitchen.
Layle followed her lead, sticking close to the wall.

But just as Xia Xin took a couple of steps, she realized something wasn’t right, ‘Wait a minute, this scent was too familiar, just like the smell of the braised pork ribs my mother used to make!’
Then, Xia Xin immediately realized that it was Gu Fan. Gu Fan had a spare key and could enter and exit Xia Xin’s house at will.
Hearing movement, Xia Xin knew Gu Fan was about to come out. She quickly placed the broom on the floor and stood at attention.
Gu Fan came out carrying a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs and another plate of crispy pork belly. Seeing Xia Xin, she was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, “You little girl, you’re back without making a sound. You scared me.
Wash your hands quickly and sit down to eat.”
Gu Fan placed the dishes on the table and then took a moment to really look at Xia Xin. Seeing Xia Xin holding X-rays in her hand, Gu Fan grew nervous and asked, “Whose X-rays are those?”
“Uh, mine.”
“What happened? Where are you injured?”
Xia Xin hurriedly lied to comfort Gu Fan, “Mom, don’t worry. It’s just that I sprained my foot a bit today at the zoo. I went to the hospital, but there was no serious issue. Don’t worry.”
Relieved, Gu Fan scolded Xia Xin slightly and looked at her with a hint of irritation. Gu Fan said, “Be more careful in the future. You’re all grown up, but you can’t take care of yourself when you’re out. You always make me worry..”
