73 Iron Deficiency (2/2)
'Who thought I would like to laugh today?' Jonah said, swallowed his chuckle. There was no way, Han Jie was pregnant. With all the nosebleed recently, it would really make sense that she has an iron deficiency, instead.
”I didn't mean to overstep, sir, and I'm sorry.” the woman said apologetically.
”No need to worry, Jess,” Jonah began solemnly after reading her name tag, making the woman blush harder.
”She is not pregnant, and it's all good.” Jonah finished as he dipped the washcloth back into the water. He would give Bai Min a call to give him a head's up. They will absolutely drop by at the clinic today.
While he was thinking, Han Jie already began to wake up slowly. She was blinking ever so slowly, before she began to push herself up to a sitting position.
”Careful, Miss,” Jonah said in concern and also in warning when he saw Han Jie open her mouth to speak.
”Could you please get her a glass of water? It looks like we wouldn't need these anymore.” Jonah said, trying to discreetly get rid of the woman to give Han Jie privacy.
The woman nodded eagerly, hurrying to leave the room after her embarrassment.
Han Jie sat up fully and put her hands on her head.
”Headache?” Jonah asked in concern. He then fished out his phone from his pocket and added, ”I will call Doctor Bai.”
Han Jie nodded. She would get an earful from Bai Min, but with the incident, she already realized that she could not take her health as a joke.
”We couldn't catch her.” Han Jie said bitterly. If she did not almost pass out, probably she had already caught Han Mei.
”We'll get her at another time, miss,” Jonah said softly.
”But when?” Han Jie asked sadly, tears filling her eyes. She was not even able to talk to her sister, even for a little to know and know if she was alright.
”Soon, miss,” Jonah said. ”At least you don't need to formulate a plan to go to City S. If she was here, it only means she was preparing to meet you probably.”
Han Jie felt better when she heard of Jonah's words. The mere fact that she was in the same building, the same store as her sister, means she was not completely trying to hide.
'Probably, I caught her off guard?' Han Jie thought to herself. Then she tried to recall what she did when she saw Han Mei, and realized bitterly, 'I did probably scare her off?'
She could guilty recall her enthusiasm to grab Han Mei and felt really dejected
”Where's my…” Han Jie spoke but trailed off as the woman bustled back in, bringing a glass of water and her purse.
”Thank you, Jess,” Jonah said, standing to accept the glass and purse. He just finished calling Bai Min.
Han Jie smiled appreciatively at the other woman before drank the water greedily before handing the glass back to Jonah.
Jess blushed and left immediately, giving them back their privacy.
Han Jie searched through her purse until she found her phone. She stared at it for a while before dialing Han Mei's number.
It went straight to voicemail.
”I think I saw you today. Talk to me, please. I won't like a tiger next time… I miss you, Mei Mei. Call me.” Han Jie left the voice mail message looked at Jonah.
”Are we not telling your father about this? Han Jun would be going to City S after all.” Jonah reminded as he helped Han Jie stand up.
”Oh…” Han Jie remembered, but a mischievous idea popped inside her head. ”Don't tell him yet, because what if she suddenly drove back to City S cause we made her scared?” She said, persuading Jonah.
