Chapter 125 - 125 125 Hold Her
?Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Hold Her Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Hold Her Ye Chuyi kept Madam Wen company a little longer before lifting her wrist to check the time. She then stood up and excused herself, “Madam, I have a surgery to perform. After it’s finished, I’ll come back to see you.”
“Alright, you go and stay busy!”
As Ye Chuyi walked toward the exit, she couldn’t help but feel uncertain, “Madam, where’s my mother? Why isn’t she here with you?”
“Your mom followed Youyou’s father back home. They went to prepare a nutritional meal for me and also to bring me some clean clothes and such. They should be back soon.”
“That’s good. If you need anything, just ring the bell. There’s a nurse waiting outside.”
“Ok.”
Having instructed her, Ye Chuyi then left with peace of mind.
She returned to her office, quickly ate a boxed meal, and then headed to the operating room.
Today’s patient had experienced a sudden worsening of their condition, so she had to work consecutive shifts, performing surgery to remove the tumor overnight.
Luckily, her youth and vitality allowed her to bear the continuous high-intensity surgeries.
By the time she emerged from the operating room again, it was already midnight.
She changed her clothes and went to Madam Wen’s ward once more.
Unfortunately, this time Lin Yueqin was guarding the door again, and she couldn’t enter.
She returned to her office, ate a couple of pieces of chocolate, a packet of cookies, and drank a box of milk. Only then did her empty stomach feel a bit better.
She intended to read some more literature, but due to exhaustion, she fell asleep while reading. She was so sound asleep that she didn’t even notice someone coming into the office.
Sheng Tingyuan knocked but received no answer, so he pushed the door open and entered.
Upon entering, he saw Ye Chuyi asleep at her desk.
He walked over to her and called out, “Ye Chuyi, wake up.”
Ye Chuyi showed no response.
Sheng Tingyuan glanced at her desk and noticed a surgical schedule filled with back-to-back appointments, leaving hardly any free time.
And for today’s entry, handwritten at the very bottom, it read: Emergency surgery, surgical time from 19:30 to 24:00.
Sheng Tingyuan frowned slightly. She had been in surgery for so long and so late into the night.
No wonder she was fast asleep on the desk, unreachable even by calling her.
She had far exceeded his expectations, born into the prestigious Ye Family, with outstanding looks and extraordinary talent, yet so resilient and always cheery. Even a rainy day could lift her spirits for hours. She accepted surgical duties deep into the night without any complaint, even maintaining a good mood while talking to him on the phone.
For the first time, Sheng Tingyuan felt curiosity about her, wondering what kind of environment and experiences had shaped her optimistic and resilient character.
She was sleeping soundly, and Sheng Tingyuan didn’t have the heart to wake her up.
However, if she continued to lie like this all night, she would likely wake up with a useless arm the next day.
He bent down slightly, lifted her horizontally, and placed her on the sofa.
She must have been so exhausted that even as he carried her, she didn’t awaken and continued to sleep deeply.
No wonder her office sofa was so long; it was probably meant for sleeping and resting.
Sheng Tingyuan watched her for a while, but feeling like he’d seem like a creep if he kept on staring, he turned off the light for her and left.
The next morning.
When Ye Chuyi woke up and realized she was lying on the sofa covered with a coral fleece blanket that she rarely used, her mind blanked for a moment.
That’s not right, she clearly remembered she was sitting in front of her desk reading literature last night.
She knew she didn’t have somnambulism quite clearly.
Her memory couldn’t possibly be mistaken, and she had confidence in that fact.
Her assistant Qianqian couldn’t possibly have the strength to carry her from the office chair to the sofa.
After pondering for a long time, she finally suspected a certain man.
She got up and walked over to her desk to retrieve her phone and start texting Sheng Tingyuan.
“Did you come to my office last night?”
“Hmm.”
“Was it you who carried me to the sofa?”
“Hmm.”
“Thank you.”
“Hmm.”
“Can you say anything other than ‘hmm’?”
“I’m at the company in a meeting. Can’t type too much.”
“Shocking! The young master of wealthy families actually knows about working?”
“I’ve always been working.”
“I haven’t noticed.”
“Don’t sleep lying on the desk next time.”
“Mr. Sheng, are you showing concern for me?”
“It’s not good for your hand.”
Hand, hand, hand, all day long he knows only about the hand, when she was actually resting her arm.
