Chapter 766 It's a Bit Cold Outside_1

Ruan Qi stared at her Weibo, her eyes lowered in contemplation, when suddenly, a knock on the door echoed through the hospital room.

Xi Jiu put down his bowl and went to open the door.

Outside, Cheng Jinyan sat in a wheelchair, clad in a light grey patient's uniform.

Both his arm and lower leg were wrapped in bandages, and his handsome face was pale from loss of blood.

However, this paleness didn't make him appear sickly; instead, it lent a trace of softness to the man's otherwise indifferent and cool demeanor.

"Master Xi," he greeted with a faint nod.

The instant Xi Jiu saw Cheng Jinyan, his face instantly frosted over.

The incident last night had all stemmed from Cheng Jinyan dragging Ruan Qi into it.

If he hadn't shamelessly insisted on Ruan Qi treating him to hotpot, the young girl wouldn't have gotten into his car.

If she hadn't entered his car, everything that followed wouldn't have happened.
