The call she had received was from none other than the nurse who did not manage to catch up with Huo Yao earlier at the hospital.
Huo Yao hailed a cab and hurried back to the hospital. On her way there, He Xiaoman called her countless times, but she did not answer. In the end, Huo Yao simply blacklisted her number.
"I'm sorry, Miss Huo. I should have called you earlier to come and collect this, but I got held up," apologized the nurse as she looked at Huo Yao.
Then she handed a letter to Huo Yao.
Huo Yao took the letter and replied politely. "It's okay. Thanks."
"You're welcome," said the nurse with a smile.
Huo Yao took the letter and walked away. Then she turned to look at the nurse and asked her. "Can I ask if my grandmother completed the discharge paperwork on her own?"
The nurse shook her head and answered honestly. "I don't know. I was working the night shift and wasn't around that morning."
