Yan Jun, who was standing to the side, sighed silently. Although this pretty boy was good-looking, he always seemed to have an inexplicable feeling about him. He was like a starving wild dog who would be humble and flattering to others without any limits in order to fill his stomach. But once his desires were satisfied, the first thing he would do was to take advantage of the people around him.

He has no taste or morals. I can't believe Dr. Xia would like someone like that. He's not even as good as a small pebble as Lu Zhenghan. He has no taste at all.

"Are you alright?" Yan Jun gently patted Lu Zhenghan's shoulder.

Lu Zhenghan quickly came to his senses, his gaze falling heavily.

"It's alright, let's go."

Just as they reached the hospital entrance, they saw Yan Jun riding a bicycle with Xia Qiuran away.

They looked just like a newlywed couple.

"Zhenghan, do you know this person? Why would Dr. Xia go with him?" Yan Jun asked casually, increasingly confused.

That's her fiancé.

Lu Zhenghan gave a direct answer without much emotion.

Oh, so it's her fiancé!

What?! My fiancé!

Once he realized what was happening, Yan Jun's eyes widened as if he had just stumbled upon a huge surprise, and he quickly chased after him to continue asking questions.

But Lu Zhenghan had already returned to the hospital and didn't want to say another word.

...

Zhao Feng quickly took Xia Qiuran to a small hospital on his bicycle.

After Xia Qiuran went inside, she saw her mother hunched over outside a multi-person ward on the third floor. She was wiping her father's face with a towel while he was lying on the hospital bed. Her face was pale and her eyes were listless. It was clear that she hadn't rested well and her whole body was exhausted.

"Mom, Dad."

Xia Qiuran's eyes instantly reddened, and she pushed open the door and rushed in, shouting.

Qian Guifang turned around and was stunned to see Xia Qiuran. She quickly stood up and said.

"Xiao Ran, what brings you here?"

"Mom, why didn't you tell me you were coming to the city for medical treatment?" Xia Qiuran said as she walked to her father's bedside.

At the time, Qian Guifang only said on the phone that her father was almost cured at the county hospital. In the subsequent phone calls, Qian Guifang only reported good news and not bad news. I never expected that my father's injury would be so serious. She is such an incompetent daughter.

"You're so busy, why are you telling me such a small thing?"

Qian Guifang simply replied that Xia Qiuran had sent her so much money, how could she not understand her daughter's hardships?

A rural girl is already a cut above city dwellers, and she has to work hard to support her family. As a mother, she naturally wants Xia Qiuran to suffer less.

If Xia Dazhi's injury hadn't been deemed untreatable by the county hospital, she would never have come to the city. She had planned to return to her hometown after receiving treatment at the hospital arranged by Zhao Feng, but Xia Qiuran still found out.

"Aunt Xia, I asked the doctor, and they said Uncle Xia's injuries are quite serious, so I thought it would be better to inform Qiu Ran."

Zhao Feng entered the ward and said to Qian Guifang with an apologetic expression.

She had learned about Xia Dazhi's injury from her mother and rushed to the county hospital that day. Luckily, when she arrived, the doctor told them that they couldn't treat the illness and they had to transfer to another hospital.

He naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity, so he immediately helped them transfer to another hospital and found a car to take them to the city.

If they hadn't repeatedly asked him not to tell Xia Qiuran, he would have taken her to the hospital long ago. He wouldn't have kept such a huge favor a secret.

"You're right, Xiaofeng. I'm already very grateful that you helped me transfer from the county to here. It's right for you to inform Qiuran now."

Qian Guifang nodded in reply. Zhao Feng had already helped them so much, so there was no reason to let him take on any more responsibility. In case something bad happened, this would be a good way to explain things to everyone.

Xia Qiuran took this opportunity to check Xia Dazhi's wound and glanced at the medical record written after the county hospital examination. She found that it was a comminuted fracture, but fortunately the wound was not too big. As long as he recovered well after the surgery, it would not affect his future life.

"Mom, let's transfer to another hospital for treatment."

This hospital is considered a small hospital in Shangchun City. It's not that it's bad, but it's definitely not as good as the First Hospital. After thinking about it, Xia Qiuran decided to transfer to another hospital for surgery so that they could all be in the same hospital and it would be more convenient to take care of her father.

"No need, I think this place is fine." Qian Guifang was still a little hesitant.

Xia Qiuran understood that her mother was worried about the high cost of large hospitals, and then explained.

"Mom, don't worry about the money. The First Hospital is a public hospital with transparent and open pricing. It won't cost more than here."

"Yes, Aunt Xia, if you hadn't insisted that I not tell Qiu Ran about this, I would have taken you to the First Hospital long ago. The doctors there are all very famous, and their medical skills are all superb."

Zhao Feng also chimed in with his advice.

The First Hospital is Xia Qiuran's current workplace. If her colleagues see the two of them together every day, it won't be long before Lu Zhenghan becomes estranged from Xia Qiuran again, just like today, and she will choose to go with him without hesitation.

Unable to resist their persuasion, Qian Guifang finally agreed to the request to transfer to another hospital.

Xia Qiuran's studies leaned towards traditional Chinese medicine and internal medicine, and she was not good at surgery. After returning to the hospital, she could only ask Gao Yingting for help in arranging a renowned orthopedic surgeon.

With his father's condition finally stabilizing for the time being, Zhao Feng was constantly busy in the ward, either pouring water for him or wiping Xia Dazhi's arms and face. He was even more filial than a biological son.

Gao Yingting stood at the door of the ward and glanced at Xia Qiuran.

Xia Qiuran, who was packing her luggage, immediately put down what she was doing and went out.

Standing in the hospital corridor, Gao Yingting cleared her throat before speaking.

"Qiu Ran, I know that as a leader I shouldn't pry into my employees' private affairs, but I've always treated Zheng Han like my own child. I hope you won't be angry if I ask a few more questions."

"Go ahead and ask the dean, I definitely won't be angry."

While in the ward, Xia Qiuran noticed that Gao Yingting looked at Zhao Feng with a strange gaze, and she understood what Gao Yingting was thinking.

Now that her fake relationship with Lu Zhenghan has ended, it's time for her to give an explanation to those who care about them.

Kao Ying-ting: "Is that person inside your ex-fiancé?"

Xia Qiuran answered truthfully, "It is the dean, but we broke off our engagement a long time ago. We only met again because of my father's matter."

Kao Ying-ting: "Then you and Cheng-han..."

Xia Qiuran: "Dean, we're not a good match. We've already made that clear before. It's better to be revolutionary comrades."

"Is it because you have someone you like?"

Gao Yingting asked again, tentatively.

This afternoon, Lu Zhenghan approached him and said he wanted Xia Qiuran to end her internship early.

In fact, Xia Qiuran's performance at the hospital during this period has been evident to everyone. Even if she really wanted to end her internship early, take the exam early, and then return to work at the military hospital, it wouldn't be impossible, but the process would be relatively complicated.

He understood that Lu Zhenghan was not an impulsive person, and there must be a reason for his actions, so he asked a few more questions.
