The more he thought about it, the more cold sweat broke out. Li Tingyan even wanted to drop everything here and confront his wife about why she didn’t miss him!
Finally, Li Tingyan calmed down. He believed his wife wasn’t the kind of person who would be heartless and unfeeling. If she really didn’t miss him, why go through the trouble of writing it out in a letter? Isn’t that just trying to cover something up?
Moreover, last time she clearly helped him with that...
That’s right!
That!
Li Tingyan thought quickly and soon realized the problem might be with the letter he wrote. Last time, he coaxed his wife into doing that for him, and she was so embarrassed that she was angry for several hours. It took him so long to soothe her!
As a result, he specifically mentioned it again in the letter, wanting his wife to do it again this time. Given how easily embarrassed she is, she must have been infuriated and said she didn’t miss him out of spite!
But even so, his wife shouldn’t say such hurtful things to him even if she’s angry. When she comes over for National Day, he needs to give her a good talking to so she won’t dare say she doesn’t miss him again!
While Li Tingyan was thinking about how to "deal with" his wife, word spread around their entire Fishermen District that his wife had sent him a letter.
Upon hearing that Saozi wrote a letter to Li Tingyan, his sailors were even more excited than he was.
Everyone knew that ever since Li Tingyan returned, he’d been crazily missing Saozi and looking forward to National Day, almost turning into a lovesick stone.
The workouts every day were even more intense than before, wearing the employees out terribly!
Now that the letter from Saozi arrived, they finally saw some hope!
However, by the afternoon, when Li Tingyan announced with a grim face that the workouts would be doubled, there was a collective lament!
They thought Saozi’s letter might make General Manager Li go easy on them, but how did it get even scarier? Seeing Li Tingyan with a face of unfulfilled desire, everyone’s hearts cried, Saozi, what exactly did you write to General Manager Li!

The incident of Wang Fugui and Yang Haiyan only stirred a small ripple in the hearts of their classmates for a few days before it was quickly overshadowed by the delightful anticipation of the upcoming National Day seven-day holiday!
On Sunday morning, Luo Lanzhen had packed up her things and gone home the night before, and Gu Youlan had left at some unknown time. In the end, only Nianyang and Jiang Tian were left in the dormitory!
Jiang Tian had learned yesterday that Nianyang was going to the county hospital to help treat someone, so she only said a few caring words, then dragged her luggage to the bus and went home.
Thinking that everything she needed was at the county hospital, Nianyang didn’t bother bringing anything to disguise herself and just went out with empty hands to catch a ride to the county!
Upon arriving at the First People’s Hospital, Nianyang went straight to the front desk to report her name. The receptionist, who had been personally instructed by Ma Shu, warmly led Nianyang to Ma Shu’s office as soon as she heard her name!
"Gu Divine Doctor, I’ve been eagerly waiting for you!"
Seeing Nianyang, Ma Shu’s face, filled with fatigue, was replaced by joy, as if Nianyang was his savior.
"Doctor Ma, let’s skip the pleasantries. You specifically wrote me a letter asking for my help with a case. What’s going on?"
Nianyang went straight to the point. She wanted to finish up quickly so she could go to Li Tingyan’s place!
"It’s like this, last month our hospital admitted a patient with some background, the wife of the City Lord. She contracted some unknown illness, constantly experiencing anemia, internal bleeding, and infections. She’s been to other hospitals but hasn’t been diagnosed. Our entire hospital couldn’t figure it out. Western medicine is at its wits’ end, so I thought of you, Gu Divine Doctor, since you’re in traditional Chinese medicine, you might have a solution."
