After the police finished taking the victim’s statement, they collected evidence from the relevant people. They also interviewed Huo Xiaoran. They mentioned a very sharp question. “Huo Xiaoran, you said that you sensed that Qiao An was in danger through your sixth sense, right?”
Huo Xiaoran knew that this theory must sound ridiculous to them, but it was true. However, Huo Xiaoran also gave an auxiliary answer.
“It’s not just that. When Qiao An was with me, she was once robbed on the street and encountered a falling chandelier. I was already worried about her safety, so I became suspicious when she suddenly lost contact for more than ten minutes.”
The answer convinced the officer.
“What’s your relationship? Why do you care so much about her safety?” the officer asked.
“She’s the ex-girlfriend I loved and couldn’t have. Although we weren’t lucky enough to get together, we used to support each other and survive many storms together, leaving many good memories. Even if we can’t be husband and wife, we’re still the closest family in the world.”
The police officer closed his notebook and said goodbye to Huo Xiaoran. “We’ll definitely inform you as soon as we have news.”
“Thank you.”
As soon as the police officer left, Huo Zhou entered. He saw that Huo Xiaoran’s face was dark and he looked very unhappy.
“The police suspected that I hurt Qiao An?” Huo Xiaoran took a deep puff of his cigarette, confusion in his eyes.
Huo Zhou seemed to have heard a fantasy. “Didn’t Qiao An tell them that you saved her life?”
“Qiao An has post-traumatic amnesia,” Huo Xiaoran said with heartache.
Huo Zhou looked indignant for Huo Xiaoran. “I thought that Qiao An would be grateful to you after you saved her this time. Your spring should have come. I didn’t expect her to lose her memory and go back to before the reforms.”
Huo Xiaoran sighed bitterly. “She and I are always a little unlucky. This is probably the legendary fate.”
After Huo Xiaoran finished his work, he rushed to Jinghang Hospital. However, he happened to bump into Qiao An.
“I’m not sick. I was clearly sleeping at home. Why did I wake up in the hospital? Let me out of the hospital. I’m not sick. ”
Huo Xiaoran quickly went forward and the doctor told him about Qiao An’s situation helplessly. “President Huo, she has post-traumatic amnesia. She can’t remember what happened in the past two days at all. She doesn’t know why she was in the hospital, so she wants to be discharged.”
“I’ll talk to her.” Huo Xiaoran retreated.
He walked into Qiao An’s hospital room. She was sitting on the bed, her hands on her hips, her almond-shaped eyes wide and angry.
Huo Xiaoran bent down and picked up the mess on the ground. The tidied room became tidier than before.
Qiao An stared at him in a daze. In the past, she had never seriously experienced Huo Xiaoran’s tolerance for her. Now that she saw a powerful man like him compromising like a little wife towards her, she felt endless self-reproach.
“An’an.” Huo Xiaoran suddenly walked up to her and reached out to rub her head. He said helplessly, “Do you want to be discharged?”
“Yeah,” Qiao An said as she pretended to be angry.
The moment Huo Xiaoran entered the house, her anger had already dissipated. When Huo Xiaoran cleaned up the mess for her, and smoothed her hair.
“Then do a full-body checkup. If all the indicators are normal, I can agree to you being discharged.” In front of Qiao An, Huo Xiaoran became a little unprincipled.
The inpatient had to stay in the hospital for a week, but Huo Xiaoran put the hospital’s rules to the back of his mind.
This time, instead of giving him a hard time, Qiao An nodded obediently.
Huo Xiaoran thought that he would have to waste his breath to convince her, but she was surprisingly obedient.
“Why are you so obedient today?” Huo Xiaoran smiled.
Qiao An looked at him with bright eyes. “The doctor said that I have nodules in my breasts, so I have to be less angry in the future. Smile more. So, you’ll be lucky in the future, because I’ll never scold you again.”
In recent years, Qiao An had rarely smiled.
She always kept herself in a shell. Her emotions were gradually hidden. She was always a numb, expressionless face.
This sudden playful smile instantly lit up her youthful and lively face.
“An’an, you look beautiful when you smile. Smile more often in the future.”
Qiao An nodded shyly.
Huo Xiaoran’s gaze landed on her chest. “What’s with the breast nodules?”
Qiao An followed his gaze and realized he was looking at her proud spot. Her face burned slightly.
“The last time I had mastitis, the doctor said there was a small nodule. If the inflammation goes away and the nodule doesn’t, I’ll have to have it checked again.”
“So did it disappear or not?”
“I don’t do self-checks,” Qiao An said stiffly.
Qiao An glanced at him. “Aren’t you a doctor? Why don’t you examine me? Anyway, you’ve seen my body and touched it all over. I’m shy about examining other people examining me”
Huo Xiaoran was speechless.
He actually didn’t know if this was an honor or a disaster.
This girl wasn’t shy when facing him?
However, when he served her in the past, she was a paper figure.
Now that she was plump and full, he was afraid he would lose his composure.
“Qiao An, I’m not a doctor anymore. It’s indecent to touch a girl’s body without a white coat,” Huo Xiaoran said.
Qiao An smacked her lips, disappointed.
Huo Xiaoran said, “Go for an ultrasound.”
Qiao An pretended to be reserved. “The last time I did an ultrasound, the doctor kept touching my chest. It made me uncomfortable.”
Huo Xiaoran’s expression darkened.
“Was it a male or female?”
Qiao An hesitated before saying, “A female doctor.”
Huo Xiaoran was a little speechless.
He suddenly felt that he had been played by this little girl.
“Qiao An, the nodules can be serious. Remember to get them checked out. Don’t make me worry,” he ordered.
Qiao An still nodded obediently.
Only because he said, “Don’t make me worried.”
The two of them seemed to have endless things to talk about, from nodules to lymph nodes, from lymph nodes to the immune system. Huo Xiaoran was surprised by Qiao An’s familiarity with medical knowledge. He revealed an admiring gaze and praised Qiao An. “An’an, you’re really knowledgeable.”
Qiao An exaggerated. “Of course. I spent four years in the library in college. I finished all the books in there.”
Huo Xiaoran sighed sincerely. “It’s really my misfortune to lose you.”
Qiao An looked at him slyly and thought to herself, “Brother Xiaoran, you won’t lose me.”
“Are you engaged to Dr. Lu?” she asked suddenly.
The smile in Huo Xiaoran’s eyes faded bit by bit, before it was replaced by confusion. “Yes.” He nodded.
