Chapter 32

In the hospital room, Ye Qiu used the Maoshan talisman to remove the fingerprints from Lin Jingzhi's face.

"How do you feel?" Ye Qiu asked.

"It feels cool, like I'm applying a face mask," Lin Jingzhi said.

"Does it still hurt?"

Lin Jingzhi shook her head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Lin, that woman just now doesn't seem to be a good person. I think she won't let this go. I suggest you hire a couple of bodyguards to protect you," Ye Qiu advised.

Lin Jingzhi smiled and said, "With you protecting me, why would I need bodyguards?"

"I've been transferred from the nursing position."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jingzhi's smile vanished.

"Where have you been transferred to? The surgery department?" Lin Jingzhi asked angrily, "Was it Bai Bing's doing? That's outrageous, I'll call the hospital director right away."

With that, Lin Jingzhi picked up her phone and quickly dialed a number.

Ye Qiu hurriedly explained, "Lin, it's not Director Bai's fault. I wanted to go back to the surgery department myself."

"You don't need to speak for Bai Bing. She's the head of the surgery department. Without her order, you wouldn't have been transferred."

"You're right. The order was given by Director Bai, but it was because I asked her."

"Why do you want to leave?" Lin Jingzhi looked at Ye Qiu in confusion, and suddenly, tears welled up in her beautiful eyes. She said resentfully, "Is it because you dislike me that you want to transfer?"

"How could I dislike you? You're so beautiful; I don't think anyone would dislike you!"

"Do you really think so?"

"Really."

"Then why are you transferring?" Lin Jingzhi was puzzled.

Ye Qiu said, "Lin, I told you before, my dream is to be a great doctor. What is greatness? It's doing extraordinary things in an ordinary position. That's what greatness is."

"The reason I studied medicine is to save lives and heal the sick, to help more people avoid the suffering of illness."

"To achieve this dream, the first step is to return to the surgery department. Only by dealing with all kinds of patients every day can my medical skills improve."

"Lin, I hope you can understand me!"

Lin Jingzhi asked Ye Qiu, "Then who will take care of me when you leave?"

Ye Qiu said, "The hospital will assign a new nurse."

"But I don't want anyone else to take care of me. I want you to take care of me."

"Lin, the nurses in the hospital have years of experience. Each one is more experienced and meticulous than I am. They will take better care of you."

"I said, I want you to take care of me." Lin Jingzhi suddenly looked at Ye Qiu with affection and said softly, "If I were your girlfriend, would you be so heartless as to leave me to other nurses?"

"No." Ye Qiu continued, "If you were my girlfriend, I would have my mother take care of you."

He said it casually, but Lin Jingzhi became interested.

"I think that's a great idea. Why don't we have Auntie take care of me?" Lin Jingzhi smiled, "That way, I can start getting along with her as my future mother-in-law."

Ye Qiu knew Lin Jingzhi was joking. He was just a probationary doctor, how could she be interested in him?

"Lin, don't joke around," Ye Qiu said, "You'll be discharged in a few more days."

"But I don't want to be discharged."

"Why not?"

Ye Qiu was very puzzled. In the past, every patient he encountered wanted to be discharged as soon as possible. It was unbelievable that Lin Jingzhi said she didn't want to be discharged.

"Because I don't want to part with you." Lin Jingzhi propped her chin in her hands and gazed at Ye Qiu with infinite tenderness. Her beautiful eyes were so alluring that they seemed to be brimming with water.

Here we go again.

Ye Qiu felt a headache. Lin Jingzhi liked to tease him.

"Lin, you need to take good care of yourself in the future."

Thinking that he wouldn't be able to be with Lin Jingzhi every day, Ye Qiu felt a bit regretful. After all, being with such a beautiful woman always made him feel better.

"Can't you take care of me?" Lin Jingzhi asked again.

Ye Qiu explained, "After returning to the surgery department, I will be very busy and won't have time to take care of you."

"Can you promise me one thing?"

"What is it?"

Lin Jingzhi said, "I want you to promise to visit me once a day."

"This..."

"Can't you even do this small favor for me? You said you don't dislike me, but I think you clearly do."

Drip!

A tear rolled down Lin Jingzhi's cheek.

Ye Qiu was immediately flustered.

He was most afraid of women crying.

When he was with Zhang Lili, as soon as she cried, he was helpless. No matter what she asked, he would agree.

In this situation, he could only agree with Lin Jingzhi.

"Lin, don't cry. I promise to visit you once a day."

"Then you also have to promise to be available whenever I call."

"Lin, you know, there are many patients in the surgery department. I can't guarantee that I'll be available whenever you call..."

"Ugh... You heartless jerk, you took advantage of me and now you don't want to take responsibility?" Lin Jingzhi didn't let Ye Qiu finish his sentence and started crying and making a fuss.

"Okay, okay, I promise to be available whenever you call. Please, don't cry, okay?"

Ye Qiu was in a panic, afraid that others would hear and misunderstand. He was a novice when it came to dealing with women. He couldn't even handle Zhang Lili, let alone someone like Lin Jingzhi.

"Ha ha!"

Lin Jingzhi suddenly burst into laughter and said, "I was just joking to see if you really care about me."

"Lin, don't joke like that in the future. And you say I took advantage of you, when did I ever do that?"

"Didn't you take advantage of me? Tell me the truth."

"Really, I didn't..." Before Ye Qiu could finish his sentence, he saw a snowy landscape.

Magnificent.

"Now, are you still going to deny it?" Lin Jingzhi's eyes sparkled with mischief.

Ye Qiu's face turned red, and he quickly looked away.

...

At the same time.

In the office of the vice president of Jiangzhou Hospital.

Guo Danu's face was dark.

Zhang Lili stood in front of the desk, her head lowered, tears welling in her eyes.

"Do you think you're very wronged?"

"I'm telling you, I'm not wronged at all."

"I entrusted Shaocong to you and asked you to take good care of him. How did you take care of him?"

"Moreover, you kept the fact that Shaocong was missing from me. If I hadn't gone to the ward to visit him and found he wasn't there, were you planning to keep it from me forever? Do you still respect me as the vice president?"

Slap!

Guo Danu slapped the table hard, scaring Zhang Lili into crying out, "Director Guo, I was wrong, I was wrong..."

"Shut up!" Guo Danu shouted, "If anything happens to Shaocong, I won't let you off."

In a panic, Zhang Lili said, "Director Guo, I think Ye Qiu is involved in Shaocong's disappearance..."
