Liu Cheng, who was sitting opposite the man, picked up the orange juice and pointed it in the mans direction as a toast. He was a doctor, so he couldnt drink even when he wasnt at work.

As he drank the orange juice in his gla.s.s, he also looked out of the window. After Yuan Shu and Liu Lan got into their cars, they slowly drove into the traffic.

Liu Cheng shook his head and said, 1 really cant think of what the two of them talked about. My sister has a straightforward personality and has never been able to thrive in upper society. Its indeed a little unexpected that she has such a good relations.h.i.+p with Yuan Shu.

The man opposite her didnt think so. He said, Perhaps Yuan Shu likes straightforward people like your sister. No matter what, lets ask around. I keep feeling that theres not a relations.h.i.+p problem between Yuan Shu and s.h.i.+ Xiao, but that theyre putting on an act.

Liu Cheng asked a little hesitantly, But who are they putting put on an act for?

The man revealed a confident smile as he said, Of course its me. They want me to show up, so they can see who the mastermind is. Isnt it obvious enough? Liu Cheng, it seems that youre only good at treating illnesses. Other things are difficult for you to grasp.

Liu Cheng didnt care about this. He pushed up his gold-rimmed gla.s.ses as he asked, Didnt you choose me because you fancy my medical skills?

After the man closed his eyes and smelled the wine, he said, Im also being used by Yuan Shu. She wants to take the opportunity to leave the s.h.i.+ family and finding the mastermind is just her excuse.

Liu Cheng was puzzled. You seem to know Yuan Shu very well.

The man didnt answer.

Liu Cheng wasnt a gossipy person, so he didnt ask further and changed the topic. Let me tell you something thatll interest you.

After the man finished his gla.s.s of red wine, he said, There arent many things that interest me now.

As Liu Cheng picked up his knife and fork to cut the steak, he said, A patient recently came to our hospital. Because he was under too much mental pressure, he was discharged from the psychiatric department. Coincidentally, his medical record is in my hands.

The man was clearly uninterested in the topic.

Liu Cheng continued, The patients name is Mo Shu.

Sure enough, the man looked up at him and asked, Where is he now?

Liu Cheng said, Ive already checked for you. The address is fake, but hell come for a follow-up in two days. You can meet him at the hospital.

The man poured another half gla.s.s of red wine and raised his gla.s.s to clink with Liu Chengs. This indeed interests me.

With that, the two of them smiled at each other.

As night fell, the neon lights in the city lit up. Li Ran sat in a room that wasnt lit and the faint light outside the window cast a hazy glow on her. The light from the phone screen illuminated her fair face.

Li Ran looked at the chat box again. Then, she threw her phone onto the sofa and stared out of the window in a daze.

She had a bad feeling that she was serious about Zhou Liu.

Zhou Liu hadnt replied to her message for the entire day. The last time was when Li Ran said good morning to him. For the entire day, Li Ran kept looking at her cell phone to see if Zhou Liu had replied. At this moment, she couldnt help but scold, Stupid man, since you dont reply when youre busy, Ive decided to ignore you and let you experience the anxiety of waiting! Hmph!

With that, Li Ran punched the sofa angrily.

At this moment, Li Ci came in from the entrance. When he saw this scene as he was taking off his suit jacket, he asked with a smile, Why arent the lights on? Who made you angry again?

Li Ran glanced at Li Ci resentfully. Hmph, you only know how to tease me.

After Li Ci threw his jacket in the dirty clothes basket and changed into slippers, he turned on the light and walked in. He brought the braised pig trotters he had specially taken a detour to buy for Li Ran and opened the disposable gloves packet before handing them to her. Alright, I wont tease you anymore. Eat first. 111 go take a shower.

Li Ran looked at the jacket in the dirty laundry basket and asked, Didnt you just change your clothes when you went out this afternoon? How did you get it dirty so quickly?

Li Ci said, 1 went to the hospital.

Li Ci had a habit of changing all his clothes and taking a shower after going to the hospital. Li Ci even requested the same for the people around him. Therefore, no matter how lazy Li Ran was, every time she returned from the hospital, she had to take a shower before lying on the sofa..
