“My bone is cracked. It’s not completely broken. As I’m still young, my bones have strong regenerative abilities. It will heal in a week or so.:

After a pause, Jian Yiling said: “If you take your medicine, eat well, and maintain a positive and optimistic outlook on life, you will quickly recover as well.”

Jian Yiling said this with a serious expression on her face.

However, Zhai Yunsheng did not reply to her.

He once believed that if he was careful enough, he could be beside her for many years.

However, he did not have this confidence anymore.

As Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling spoke, the door was opened by Liu Ting.

Previously, Liu Ting had always been wearing a lab coat. That look gave off the impression that he was only focused on academic research.

However, he changed into a suit today. Whilst being well-dressed, there was also a bouquet of roses in his hand.

There was even a rose held in his mouth.

“Dean, this is for you.”

Jian Yiling paused before she slowly took the bouquet. Question marks were written all over her face.

“Why are you giving me flowers?”

“No reason why. I just haven’t seen you in two years. And thus, I wanted to express how much I’ve missed you in these past two years.”

Liu Ting was no longer laughing. Instead, he looked at Jian Yiling with a burning gaze. His voice was steady and the look on his face was inexplicably serious.

It seemed as though his eyes were hiding many unexpressed feelings.

As he said this, Liu Ting tumed around to look at Zhai Yunsheng who was lying on the bed. When Jian Yiling was not watching, a taunting smile appeared on his lips.

When Zhai Yunsheng saw this, he frowned.

He sensed that Liu Ting was provoking him.

“Thank you,” Jian Yiling said. She did not think too much into this.

“This is also for you. I know you like strawberry flavored desserts,” Liu Ting said as he took out a heart-shaped dessert that was packed inside a transparent plastic box. The outer layer of the dessert was coated in strawberry jam.

Roses and a heart-shaped dessert… Even the closest colleagues wouldn’t gift these two things together.

Although Jian Yiling did not understand what was happening, Zhai Yunsheng immediately understood.

“Thank you.”

“Let me take you to watch a movie tonight,” Liu Ting said to Jian Yiling.

“Watch a movie?”

“Mhmm, Brother Yunmo said that you probably didn’t get much rest in the past two years. Even though you’re back, you’re still super busy. Therefore, he wanted me to think of something that would help you take some time to relax and unwind.”

‘When he heard these words, Zhai Yunsheng nervously looked at Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling shook her head and replied: “I’m going to stay by A Sheng.”

Jian Yiling’s reply made Zhai Yunsheng breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he received this reply, Liu Ting did not back off. Instead, he said: “Well then, continue to take care of him. I will ask you another day.”

As he said this, he gave Jian Yiling a warm smile.

This smile was very different from his usual smiles.

It was the first time Zhai Yunsheng saw such a smile on Liu Ting’s face.

And thus, Zhai Yunsheng was inclined to think that Liu Ting had feelings for Jian Yiling.

After all, on Lahaisen Island, Liu Ting treated Zhai Yunsheng with quite a bit of animosity. When Jian Yunmo wanted to make things difficult for Zhai Yunsheng, Liu Ting always helped him.

Liu Ting looked at Zhai Yunsheng and asked Jian Yiling: “Is he going to start doing exercise?”

“Yep,” Jian Yiling answered. She was planning to help Zhai Yunsheng with massages today.

“Does he need a muscle massage? I can help,” Liu Ting said.

“No need.”

Not long ago, Zhai Yunsheng refused Jian Yiling’s help and requested a man to do his muscle massage..
