After a few days of cold treatment, he expected Qiao An to offer him an apology. Instead, she simply kicked him out of her social media circle of friends.

Li Zecheng knew that Qiao An was going against him this time.

But in Li Zecheng’s worldview, women could never be accommodated. If Qiao An had a cold war with him, he would fight her to the end.

However, Old Master Li suddenly had an idea. He wanted to bring the entire Li family, old and young, to the hospital to visit this obedient and sensible granddaughter-in-law.

When Li Zecheng’s mother passed the news to Li Zecheng, she repeatedly reminded him, “Zecheng, your grandfather has always admired Qiao An’s independence. Your grandfather actually blamed you for not protecting Qiao An well this time. He has a lot of opinions about you.”

“So when Grandpa comes to the hospital, you must perform well and let him know that there’s nothing wrong with your relationship. Otherwise, once Grandpa suspects that you’ve been treating Qiao An badly, it will be difficult for you to gain a foothold in the Li family.”

Li Zecheng pinched the space between his eyebrows and said weakly, “Got it.”

Li Zecheng hung up on his mother and searched for Qiao An’s number, but he was unwilling to call.

He was reluctant to give in to Qiao An.

But driven by profit, he had to cave.

Reluctantly, he dialed Qiao An’s number. The phone rang several times, then stopped abruptly.

In this case, the recipient had obviously cut off the call.

However, Li Zecheng did not believe that Qiao An would treat him so coldly. After all, he had already put aside his pride and taken the initiative to contact her. What else did she want?

He called again.

This time Qiao An canceled the call faster.

Li Zecheng’s face darkened.

He tried again, but the phone was turned off.

Only then did Li Zecheng’s self-deception disappear. Qiao An was so stubborn.

Li Zecheng stood up gloomily, picked up his coat, and decided to go to the hospital himself.

When he arrived at the hospital, Li Xiaoran was examining Qiao An. Her hospital gown was open, revealing her chest.

Li Xiaoran gently pressed her ribs and asked, “Does it hurt?”

Qiao An frowned slightly, but she, who was strong in her bones, endured the pain and didn’t cry out.

Li Xiaoran reprimanded with a dark expression, “Call out if it hurts. The patient doesn’t need to be a Ninja Turtle. This won’t be good for the doctor who needs to know your condition.”

Qiao An glared angrily at Li Xiaoran after being scolded.

Li Xiaoran looked at her unconvinced expression and found it rather cute. He smiled and said, “Why, don’t you know how to call out?”

Damn, his voice was gentle enough to squeeze out water. It spread in the cramped ward, giving off a different kind of flirtatious feeling.

“I won’t.” Qiao An’s face was hard, unyielding.

Li Xiaoran tried to figure her out. “Hey, I’ll teach you.”

Then he pinched his throat and groaned. “Ah, ah …”

It was no different from a cat in heat.

Qiao An’s beautiful face flushed red. She gritted her teeth and scolded, “Pervert.”

Li Xiaoran’s unruly face instantly darkened. He said seriously, “The doctor is teaching you how to react to your condition. Don’t get the wrong idea.”

Qiao An understood instantly and cursed him. “Hooligan.”

Li Xiaoran said, “I’m doing a proper checkup for you, but you’re calling me a pervert and a hooligan. Qiao An, there’s a saying that criticizes one for measuring the heart of a gentleman with a petty heart.”

Qiao An fumed.

At this moment, a nurse ran in in a panic and reported to Li Xiaoran while panting, “Doctor Li, the patient in Ward 8 is clamoring to see you. She’s agitated and no one can stop her.”

Li Xiaoran frowned. “Didn’t I just observe her wound? She’s recovering well. You guys can take responsibility in the future.”

The nurse stammered, “Doctor Li, the patient strongly requested that you be her doctor in charge. She said that she likes you very much… She even said that she wanted to confess to you…”

Qiao An felt that if Li Xiaoran could be her doctor in charge, he could also be the doctor in charge of Patient Eight. She blurted out, “Then… let Doctor Li be her doctor in charge.”

The nurse became anxious. “Miss Qiao, Dr. Li is a surgeon, but he’s putting his energy into taking care of one patient. Isn’t this an overkill?”

Qiao An’s face was suddenly as dark as ink.

Li Xiaoran looked at her and smiled. “Qiao An, you should know how good I am to you now, right?”

Qiao An choked on his words.

Li Xiaoran smiled and left.

When Qiao An heard that someone was going to confess to Li Xiaoran, she slowly moved into the wheelchair and followed behind Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran sensed a little tail following behind him and turned to look at her in surprise. “Why are you following me?”

Qiao An said, “A free romance blockbuster. It’s a waste not to watch it.”

Li Xiaoran was speechless.

If he didn’t let her see it, she might overthink.

He might as well be a good person and help her push the wheelchair to ward eight.

The patient sat on the window and did not allow anyone to approach her. When she saw Li Xiaoran walk in, she cried. “Doctor Li, I heard from them that the patient in Ward 13 is your experimental subject. You’re extremely good to her. Not only are you personally operating on her, but you’re also in charge of her food and drinks. I want to be your experimental subject…”

Qiao An was petrified.

Someone else liked the treatment?

The male doctor attended to the female patient’s needs. God only knew how long she’d need to overcome her sense of shame.

Li Xiaoran whispered in her ear, “Did you hear that? The other patients are very envious of your treatment.”

Qiao An lifted her foot to step on his. “Then why don’t you change your subject?”

Li Xiaoran lowered his eyes and couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Qiao An’s red ears.

“Doctor Li, if you don’t promise me, then I don’t want to live anymore. I’ll jump down from here and get it over with,” the patient said.

Qiao An muttered, “If you really wanted to jump, you would have done so a long time ago. What are you yammering about?”

For Qiao An, there was no hesitation. That was the mentality of jumping off a building.

Li Xiaoran heard Qiao An’s words that angered the female patient. He covered her mouth and dragged her out of the ward.

“What are you doing?” Qiao An asked.

Li Xiaoran said, “The patient has a serious psychological problem after being abused by her husband. You shouldn’t anger her.”

Qiao An’s pupils dilated in shock. “I don’t see her having any mental problems?”

Li Xiaoran said, “Then are you willing to tear open the pain in your heart for me to see?”

Qiao An’s brilliant eyes darkened.

Li Xiaoran was right. There was a universe hidden in her heart. The universe was the cause of this catastrophe. As long as she opened her mouth, she would be dominated by hatred and become someone else.
