âAwesome, awesome.â
Lin Yi gave her a thumbs up. âMy opinion is definitely one-sided.â
âItâs good that you know.â An Ning said,
âItâs fine to make a rational assumption, but this matter has to be done from a scientific point of view. We canât just assume.â
âYes, yes, yes. Iâve learned something.â
Lin Yi smacked his lips and glanced back and forth at An Ning.
After thinking about it, he felt that this Northeastern girl was quite interesting. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Although he had witnessed this cool and valiant aura coming from Liang Ruoxu before, it was still a little inferior to a native Northeasterner like An Ning.
This woman was really exciting.
Ring ring ring!
An Ningâs phone rang at this moment.
âMom.
âWhat happened? Wasnât he okay when I called you last night?
âDonât worry, Iâll go over now.â
Due to An Ningâs call, the joyous atmosphere in the car turned solemn and tense.
âWhat happened?â
âMy dad had a heart attack. Heâs on his way to the hospital.â
In her haste, An Ning did not ask for his opinion. She turned around at the next intersection and drove towards the hospital.
âDid he suffer any stimulation before the incident?â
As a professional doctor in the cardiology department, Lin Yi knew about heart attacks very well.
Although there were many causes, generally speaking, external stimulation was the most common reason.
âMy mom told me that a group of people came to our house just now. They said 1 had hired someone, and they injured their friend, demanding twenty thousand for medical expenses, or else they would report it to the police,â An Ning explained.
Lin Yi frowned and instantly understood the reason.
âThey should be Sun Manjiaâs men.â
âItâs very possible. My mom said theyâre a bunch of hooligans,â An Ning said.
âMy father used to be a soldier for more than ten years. Coupled with the fact that he is a pure northeasterner and had a bad temper, he quarreled with them. In the end, he was so angry that he had a heart attack. Those people ran away when they saw that things were turning sour.â
âIt should be them.â Lin Yi supported his head with one hand.
âHurry up and get to the hospital as soon as possible.â
âBy the way, arenât you going to the institute? 1 canât send you there. Iâll drop you off at the intersection. You can take a taxi there.â
After what happened last night, the relationship between the two of them had imperceptibly become much closer.
When she spoke, she was not as formal as before.
âThereâs no point. Iâll go to the hospital with you,â Lin Yi said.
âMoreover, this matter started because of me. Logically speaking, 1 have to go over and take a look.â
âYou canât say that. Itâs just a coincidence. You didnât want this to happen.â
âItâs fine, bring me there to take a look,â Lin Yi said, âDrive faster.â
âThereâs a speed limit here. Thereâs a speed camera up front.â
âThatâs a parking sign, not a speed limit.â
âOh.â
âThereâs no need to wait at the red light in front. The camera isnât working. Just rush through it.â
âAre you sure?â
âJust listen to me.â
Under Lin Yiâs instructions, An Ning arrived at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bingcheng Medical University at least ten minutes early and rushed at the ICU ward.
Because he had worked in the hospital before, Lin Yi knew very well that the entrance of the ICU was the most complicated place in the entire hospital.
There were people on chairs, on the floor, even on the windowsill and in the corridor.
There were all sorts of people ranging from rich folks with illustrious family backgrounds, farmers who had farmed for their entire lives, ordinary workers, and even blue-collar workers.
All kinds of people in society gathered together. Their emotions and mentality were surprisingly unified. All of them were frowning. They were too lazy to even say a word, let alone smile.
When he was at Huashan Hospital, the ICU was the place Lin Yi disliked the most.
The atmosphere was too depressing.
He even felt that if he stayed there for too long, his mind might become distorted.
Lin Yi and An Ningâs appearance did not attract much attention. Even if they were handsome men and beautiful women, no one was in the mood to take a second glance at them.
Soon, she met An Ningâs mother at the entrance of the ICU.
An Ningâs motherâs name was Liu Guiqin and she used to be an employee of a state-owned enterprise. She wore a red cotton gown while her face clearly resembled An Ningâs.
âDaughter, youâre finally here.â
When she saw An Ning, Liu Guiqin, who was already mentally and physically exhausted, could no longer hold on.
He hugged her and started crying.
âMom, howâs Dad?â
âDaughterâ¦â
Liu Guiqin grabbed An Ningâs clothes tightly and wiped her tears. âHeâs been wheeled in. The doctor hasnât told us whatâs going on.â
âDonât worry,â An Ning comforted.
âHe got here in good time. He should be okay.â
âI called Zhengyang just now. He said the same thing, but Iâm still worried about it.â
âItâs alright, itâs alright.â An Ning hugged Liu Guiqinâs shoulder and comforted her.
âWith the Second Affiliated Hospital standards, this should be no problem. Donât worry.â
In reality, she was also worried. However, at this time, she still had to support this family. Otherwise, no one would be able to hold on.
âI got it.â
Under An Ningâs persuasion, Liu Guiqinâs mood greatly improved. She wiped her tears away, but her face was still filled with worry.
It was also at this moment that Liu Guiqin noticed Lin Yi, who was beside An Ning.
He felt that this young man looked even better than Nie Zhengyang. He looked quite compatible with ger daughter.
âDaughter, who is this young man?â
âHis name is Lin Yi. Heâs a client of our institute. Iâm in charge of receiving him,â An Ning said.
âWhen you called me, the two of us were together, so we came together.â
âI see.â
At this moment, the elevator door opened and Nie Zhengyang, who was wearing a white coat, walked out.
âNingning, youâre finally here. I was worried that I couldnât contact you.â
In order to avoid Nie Zhengyang yesterday, An Ning turned off her phone after getting into the car.
It was not turned back on until this morning.
âThere was a problem with my phone yesterday. I just fixed it this morning.â
Facing Nie Zhengyang again, An Ningâs emotions were complicated. Things would not be able to return to the way it was before in such a short period of time.
âThen last night, youâ¦â
Nie Zhengyang wanted to ask where An Ning had gone last night, but halfway through his sentence, he saw Lin Yi not far away and his expression changed.
âWhy are you here?!â
âWhy canât I be here?â
âNie Zhengyang, what are you doing?â An Ning said coldly.
âIsnât he a client from your institute? Why is he here?â
âI went to pick him up this morning and was about to go to the lab together. This incident happened midway, so we came here together.â
Nie Zhengyang glanced at Lin Yi coldly.
âThis has nothing to do with you. Leave now. You donât have to worry about my future father-in-law.â
If An Ning heard this in the past, she wouldnât have though much of it and would even feel that it was normal.
However, now, no matter how she thought of it, it felt awkward and extremely uncomfortable.
âYouâre a real dog. If it werenât for me, you might not have been able to walk away unscathed yesterday.â Lin Yi said lightly..
