The sound reached the ears of Qin Ye and Chu Qingtian, and they both raised their heads and glanced towards the door.

"Is there a noise outside?"

Chu Qingtian spontaneously got up from Qin Ye's lap, "Go and have a look."

Qin Ye hummed, put down the unfinished cake in his hand, and told her, "Don't come out."

Seeing the man walk out and close the door, Chu Qingtian felt uneasy. She approached the door, opened it a little, and found Tao Zi sitting on the ground, holding the wrist of her left hand tightly with her right hand, gritting her teeth.

, as if it hurts a lot.

Standing in front of her were Zhou Ziheng and Wang Lian, neither of whom had any intention of giving her a hand.

It was Qin Ye who stepped forward and helped her up from the ground.

"Are you okay?"

Tao Zi wiped away her tears and said, "My hand is twisted."

Qin Ye's face showed a rare look of anger.

He looked at Zhou Ziheng and Wang Lian, his voice was quite calm, and he was obviously suppressing his anger, "What do you want to do?"

Wang Lian looked like it was none of my business, and Zhou Ziheng explained: "She suddenly rushed over, and I pushed her away. I didn't use any force, and she accidentally dropped her."

"careless?"

If Zhou Ziheng didn't push Tao Zi away, how could she accidentally fall on her own?

"I told you it was an accident, what do you think is more serious?"

Zhou Ziheng turned around and looked at his watch. It was almost time to get off work.

He changed the topic and said to Qin Ye: "The admission procedures will be completed at the hospital tomorrow."

"knew."

"Then I'll take Wang Lian and leave first."

Qin Ye frowned, but before he could say anything, Zhou Ziheng already signaled Wang Lian to change clothes, and he walked out, got in the car, and waited for Wang Lian in the car.

Tao Zi's eyes were red, and the tears of frustration fell again.

She didn't understand that she had always been doing the work and Wang Lian had done nothing. In the end, she was inferior to Wang Lian in every aspect.

The twisted wrist was already red and swollen, and it hurt even when touched.

She lowered her head to wipe away her tears and said to Qin Ye, "I want to take a leave."

"Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

"No, I can go by myself."

"Then you take a taxi to the hospital and the clinic will reimburse all the medical expenses."

Wang Lian changed her clothes and came out, following Zhou Ziheng one step ahead.

Chu Qingtian stood in the lounge and watched through the crack in the door as Tao Zi entered the locker room. When he came out again, he was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, carrying a backpack, and left alone with his head downcast. He felt indescribably sad.

She could see the grievance Tao Zi felt.

You can't hide the look in someone's eyes that you like. When Tao Zi looked at Zhou Ziheng, the look of sadness and anger was deeply imprinted in her mind, and she couldn't get rid of it for a long time.

Qin Ye entered the office and told the woman suffering from depression about being admitted to the hospital tomorrow, and asked the woman to go back and make arrangements for her daughter. Then he handed over his business card and sent the woman out of the clinic.

By the time I finished my work, it was already dark outside.

He returned to the lounge and was not in the mood to eat cake again.

"Let's go home."

He smiled at Chu Qingtian.

In just one afternoon, so many things happened. Chu Qingtian made a special trip to deliver afternoon tea cakes, but was ignored by him. He felt somewhat sorry.

Chu Qingtian didn't care about this. After all, Qin Ye was at work, and she was afraid that her sudden visit would disturb him.

On the way back, Chu Qingtian sat in the back seat of the car, keeping a little distance from Qin Ye.

The teddy dog ​​peed on her shoes. She was afraid of getting too close to Qin Ye, and he said it smelled strange.

When the car arrived at the community, it drove directly to the underground garage.

After parking the car, Qin Ye turned to look at Chu Qingtian behind him and suggested that she put on her helmet.

"It's rush hour now, so there should be a lot of people in the elevator."

They took the elevator from the underground floor to the top floor. There were so many people coming in and out, and it took at least three minutes.

"A lot of people?"

Chu Qingtian felt frightened and didn't want to take the elevator for a moment.

"Doctor Qin, you can go up by yourself. I...can climb the stairs."

After hearing this, Qin Ye couldn't help but want to laugh, "You forgot, you live on the twentieth floor."

How could she forget?

But the current situation is that she has no other choice.

"It doesn't matter. I usually exercise at home. I can climb up in one breath."

Qin Ye raised his eyebrows with a look of disbelief.

"I really can."

"Since you insist, then okay."

After getting off the car, Qin Ye walked towards the elevator.

Entering the elevator, he put one hand in his trouser pocket, smiled at Chu Qingtian and waved, "See you upstairs."

"..."

No matter how you look at it, you feel like he deserves a beating.

"I'll help you keep track of time."

"..."

He deserves a beating even more.

Chu Qingtian rolled her eyes silently.

Who wants to climb stairs when you can take the elevator?

There is no way!

She carried her helmet and walked towards the stairway. She looked up at the stairs going up one level and felt a headache coming from her.

Qin Ye took the elevator up very quickly, and it took less time than he expected.

After stepping out of the elevator, he subconsciously looked towards the stairway, but Chu Qingtian was nowhere to be seen.

At this time, Chu Qingtian was on the tenth floor.

She climbed so high in one breath, her legs were sore and weak, her breathing was short, and her body had begun to sweat.

After sitting down on the steps to rest for a while, she got up and continued climbing.

Qin Ye went home and made a cup of coffee, added milk, then walked out with the cup and stood in the stairwell, drinking coffee while looking at the stairs going down.

Soon, he heard Chu Qingtian's breathing.

She has climbed to the eighteenth floor.

"Almost there."

He leaned against the stair railing and looked down.

When Chu Qingtian heard his voice, she tilted her head and looked up, and their eyes happened to meet.

"Do you need me to pick you up?"

A smile could be heard in Qin Ye's voice.

She snorted, "No."

"Quite stubborn."

"..."

She climbed up slowly, and when she arrived in front of Qin Ye, she found the man holding a cup in his hand and drinking coffee leisurely. She suddenly felt dumbfounded.

Although she usually insists on exercising, she just does yoga, jumps and fat-burning exercises, and she has never climbed the 20th floor in one breath so desperately.

By now her legs were as soft as noodles.

She sat down on the ground, gasping for air.

So tired.

Still very thirsty.
