Lin Mubai had no patience. When he got no response over the phone, he simply continued to instruct through his mobile: "Wait for me at the hospital, I’ll be there in half an hour."
Perhaps it was too much excitement; Lin Mubai actually forgot the existence of the little person on the sofa this time.
It wasn’t until people disappeared from view that An Jiayou suddenly realized: "Everyone’s gone. How am I supposed to get home tonight?"
First, he had no money; second, he still had no money; third, he had no money, again.
"Oh, I’m so pitiful."
After sighing, An Jiayou simply laid down on the sofa playing dead, while hoping deep inside that someone might feel guilty and remember him, and then give him a ride home later. Otherwise, he’d have to find the handsome secretary outside and borrow some fare to get home.
Lin Mubai had been to the hospital where Lan Xinru worked, but didn’t know where her office was, so he called her again: "I’m in the parking lot, come pick me up."
Lan Xinru held the disconnected phone, her face twisted: "That damned brat, am I your nanny?" After cursing, she obediently left her office and headed to the hospital parking lot.
Upon meeting, she immediately mocked him: "Oh my, Young Master Lin, when did you undergo a sex change? Getting pregnant now, are you?" As she spoke, Lan Xinru didn’t forget to look for a familiar figure, but she saw none, which confused her even more.
Could it be she misunderstood and it wasn’t An Nan who was pregnant.
Just as Lan Xinru was looking around, the man in front of her spoke: "Stop looking, my wife didn’t come. Quickly take me to find that doctor."
The anxiety in Lin Mubai’s heart at the moment was beyond words.
Lan Xinru pursed her lips immediately, not asking further questions, and just turned away and left. Anyway, once she met that doctor, she’d naturally know what this bastard was up to.
With Lan Xinru’s prestige in the hospital, backed by the Lan Family, she could be said to walk the hospital like a crab—almost sideways—and she never shied away from this point.
Once someone complained about her attitude, saying she relied on her family, and this young lady directly replied: "Yeah, I rely on my family, so what? You can rely on yours too, just afraid someone has no one to rely on. Plus, I’m not scared to tell you, if I hear one more comment about me, I wouldn’t mind using my family’s influence to make sure you can’t stay in this hospital. Don’t believe me? Just try it."
After that, no one in the hospital dared gossip behind Lan Xinru’s back. Over time, people admired her more and even said: "Who said Doctor Lan relies on her family? She clearly relies on herself. No matter how powerful her family is, could they have given her such remarkable medical skills?"
What’s more, oddly enough, Lan Xinru’s supporters in the hospital were mostly young girls, especially the little nurses. Mentioning Doctor Lan would make their eyes light up, making all the male doctors in the hospital want to cry nearly, looking to the sky and sighing at how outrageous the world was.
Lan Xinru led Lin Mubai towards the hospital’s obstetrics department. Along the way, they drew a lot of attention, and after they left, everyone’s faces carried strange expressions. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel·fire.net
For ordinary people, they would have long been unable to endure such stares, yet these siblings were anything but ordinary; they could be described as walking straight ahead, ignoring everything.
