Whether from shyness or some other reason, Ye Zhiqiu didn't want a third person to see her like this.
"Zhiqiu, if I leave..."
Mi Hong hesitated, glancing at Jiang Xinghai's back.
"Go on," Ye Zhiqiu insisted. "I trust Divine Doctor Jiang's character."
Mi Hong nodded in embarrassment.
'She knew firsthand whether Jiang Xinghai's character was a problem or not.'
'Back then, she had been the one who was too forward. Otherwise, Jiang Xinghai probably wouldn't have... done that to her.'
"I'll go make you two some coffee, then."
Mi Hong turned, but paused at the door to add a word of caution. "Divine Doctor Jiang, you must uphold your professional medical ethics."
"Of course," Jiang Xinghai nodded.
'He chuckled to himself. 'As long as Ye Zhiqiu doesn't try to provoke me, fine. But if she does, she can't blame me for not holding back.''
