Stunning Check-in: A Carefree Life Begins in the Countryside

With Wei Ningbing and the others present today, Xia An didn't use the puppet to cook.

Ye Qingxuan and the others were either in their own rooms or in another main room.

Therefore, when Xia An saw Wei Ningbing enter the room, he did not stop her.

Upon entering Xia An's house,

Wei Ningbing turned to look at Xia An, her gaze deep and fixed on him.

"Was that you that day?"

Xia An's heart skipped a beat, but she remained outwardly calm, feigning confusion as she asked:

"Comrade Wei, what are you saying?"

"Stop playing dumb. Not many people know my nickname, and you're one of them."

Wei Ningbing said coldly, "Xia Ming has already confessed to me that he has never been to the border."

Hearing this, Xia An wanted to laugh, but quickly suppressed the urge.

Xia Ming is his alias, his illusion; whether he confessed or not,

How could Xia An not know?

Xia An thought about some sad things in her mind before she managed to hold back her laughter.

He frowned slightly, looking at Wei Ningbing with a puzzled expression, seemingly confused.

"Comrade Wei, I really don't know what you're talking about. Could you please explain in more detail?"

He's not stupid.

Xia Ming and these people are his aliases; no one except his women can tell him about this.

If it's just to help Wei Ningbing get treatment, is it really necessary to expose this kind of thing?

Unless he's gone mad.

Moreover, Wei Ningbing is a member of the military. If she were to find out that Xia Ming and Ye Gu were her "puppets,"

If Xia An waits for him, he might end up with lead poisoning and be bedridden.

Wei Ningbing stared intently at Xia An's expression, her delicate brows furrowing slightly.

Could it really not be him?

Xia An still looked puzzled, her gaze fixed on the aloof and stunningly beautiful face before her.

have to say,

This woman is truly stunning; her looks and figure are absolutely amazing!

for a long time,

Wei Ningbing withdrew her gaze, sighed softly, and then shook her head, saying:

"Xia Ming seems to be a very good doctor. Why don't you teach him and have him treat me?"

Xia An raised an eyebrow slightly. "Comrade Xia Ming, I've heard he does have some medical skills, but I haven't met him. What do you think?"

"but……"

"Why did Comrade Wei reject me but accept him, even though we're both male doctors?"

Wei Ningbing shook her head, her voice cold.

"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell me if you can teach me."

Xia An shook his head, his expression somewhat serious, his voice earnest.

"I'll say it again."

"I'm not entirely confident that I can teach others, or rather, I don't dare to teach them."

"unless……"

"Unless the person you bring in can prove that his medical skills surpass mine."

Wei Ningbing frowned, her expression unreadable, as if she were thinking about something.

But Xia An continued, "Comrade Wei, you either find this person or give up."

Wei Ningbing's already furrowed brows tightened further as she looked at Xia An with suspicion.

"You just said you'd give me time to consider, but now you're saying you don't want to make a move?"

Xia An shook his head slightly. "After talking with Comrade Wei for a while, I've thought about it and decided not to take the risk."

"After all, as I just said, I can't risk my happiness for the rest of my life just to treat Comrade Wei's illness."

"You agree, right?"

Wei Ningbing frowned, her gaze fixed on Xia An, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

Is this young man jealous?

Probably not.

Or is it really as he said, that he doesn't want to take full responsibility for her because of this treatment?

Her thoughts raced, and she gave the man before her a deep look.

He then sighed softly, "Let's leave it for now, give me some time to think about it."

After saying that, he glanced at Xia An again, then turned and walked out of the house.

Watching her leave, Xia An's gaze lingered, and she said nothing.

Wei Ningbing currently only has a good impression of him, so it's not worth the risk for him.

If treatment is not necessary, that would be the best outcome.

of course,

If the level of attraction develops into liking or even infatuation during treatment, then that would be acceptable.

If she can fall in love with him, she will naturally understand and won't mind if there are other women around him.

quickly,

Upon learning that Wei Ningbing was temporarily beyond saving, Cao Ying and the others were all somewhat puzzled.

"Sister, since it can be cured, why not ask Brother Xia to treat you?"

Wei Shanghua asked in confusion.

Cao Ying nodded in agreement.

As Wei Ningbing's good friend, she naturally knew about Wei Ningbing's situation.

If you've sought treatment from numerous renowned doctors without success, and now that there's a possibility of a cure, why not seek treatment?

"Ningbing, what are you thinking?"

Wei Ningbing shook her head.

"I just spoke with Comrade Xia, and the chances of a cure aren't very high, so let's give up for now."

She didn't mention that the acupuncture points were somewhat inappropriate, otherwise it could easily cause misunderstandings.

This... is bad!

"Whether we're confident or not, we can't give up, even if it's just a possibility!"

Cao Ying frowned, her eyes full of confusion; she had a feeling that something had happened.

Thinking of something, she turned to look at Kong Qingci and the other person, whose expressions were calm, as if all of this was expected.

"What exactly did you tell Xia, the educated youth, to say that you'd just stop treating her?"

Kong Qingci shook her head and smiled, pointed at Wei Ningbing, and said softly:

"Instead of asking me, you should ask the person involved; that would be more direct and simple."

Cao Ying frowned slightly, looked at Wei Ningbing, and was about to ask a question...

But Wei Ningbing shook her head. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."

"Sun Liang, get ready, come with me into the mountains this afternoon to find some things."

"Okay..." Sun Liang nodded in agreement without asking any questions.

Cao Ying frowned again. "You're not feeling well and shouldn't go into the mountains. Why don't you just have Comrade Sun Liang go find what you need?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Ningbing hesitated slightly, then nodded and said:

"Alright,"

"Please ask Sun Liang to pass on a message to Comrade Xia: he'll be coming over later to discuss something."

Sun Liang said he understood instantly, naturally knowing that this Comrade Xia was not that Comrade Xia.

He nodded in agreement, "I'll go right now."

"No rush!"

Wei Ningbing shook her head, "I've already had dinner at Comrade Xia's place, I'll go later."

Sun Liang nodded and did not refuse.

At lunchtime.

Cao Ying looked at the many beautiful women gathered together, her eyebrows slightly raised in surprise.

"Comrade Xia actually cooks with so many female comrades, that's really..."

"You're quite the lucky one!"

Xia An shook his head and smiled, quickly denying it.

"Comrade Cao is joking. It's just a normal meal together; where would I get any romantic luck from?"

Cao Ying smiled and said nothing more.

But as she looked at the rather lavish meal on the table, surprise lingered in her eyes.

"Comrade Xia is truly generous to offer such a fine meal to Ningbing and the others!"

Xia An smiled and did not deny it.

Could he say that this was slightly less impressive than their usual performance?

Obviously, this shouldn't be said carelessly.

Although the source of his food can be explained, there's no need to make a big fuss about it.

"Alright, everyone, let's eat."

Xia An gave a signal, and everyone picked up their chopsticks, their eyes subtly shifting.
