Mrs. Xie's stunning face grew warm. Though her skill was renowned throughout the hospital, she was still a bit bashful when her daughter-in-law lavished her with such praise. "Alright, a hospital is no place to linger. You two take Jing Qi and head home. And you, Xiao Mei, aren't you cold? You're dressed so lightly."
Qin Mei paused for a few seconds in the face of Mrs. Xie's concern, a warmth spreading through her heart. She shook her head with a smile. "I'm not cold."
Mrs. Xie didn't believe her. She looked at her son, intending to tell him to give Qin Mei his coat, but when she saw he was also dressed lightly, she swallowed her words.
"Is it urgent?" Mrs. Xie asked Qin Mei.
Qin Mei smiled, her gaze falling upon Jie Jingshan. "I'm not the one in a hurry. Jing Qi is."
Mrs. Xie understood. Her compassionate gaze swept over Jie Jingshan. "I see," she said. "Xiao Si, I'll be home late, so take them home for me. I have to get back to work."
