Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Su Qiqi subconsciously looked towards it, curious at how Jin Muchen could have returned so quickly, only to see Mo Chen.
His eyes looked tired, with an air of dejection surrounding him.
Su Qiqi gave a comforting smile, "Mo Chen."
Mo Chen, who had been initially standing frozen at the door, walked over as though in a haze upon hearing her voice.
Upon reaching the bedside, Su Qiqi could clearly see the exhaustion in Mo Chen's eyes. "Haven't you slept?"
She had no idea how long Mo Chen had been searching for her, or how long he had waited outside.
Seeing his exhausted state, she instinctively assumed it was work-related stress that had caused it. "Work must be busy."
"I'm sorry." Mo Chen hadn't smoked today, yet his throat felt as if stuffed with sharp thorns, making speaking a painful and difficult task.
