Qin Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yan called Assistant Li over directly, gave him a few instructions, and then returned to the lounge.

Ning Xi had already woken up, and opened her eyes sleepily when she heard footsteps.

"What time is it?"

"Three-thirty."

It’s so late.

Ning Xi yawned.

"If you're tired, you can continue to sleep." Qin Yan sat down beside her and gently scratched her face with his fingertips.

"No, I won't be able to sleep at night."

Although she wanted to sleep every day due to pregnancy fatigue, she still didn't sleep.

"Okay, then get up. There's something we need to take care of." Qin Yan reached out to support her.

"What's the matter?" Ning Xi asked suspiciously.

Qin Yan didn't rush to tell her. Instead, he helped her up and put on her coat. Then he looked at her and said, "The hospital called just now. I didn't want to disturb your sleep, so I answered it for you."

When Ning Xi heard the word "hospital", her heart skipped a beat.

Qin Yan looked at her expression and tried to be as tactful as possible when he said, "They said Ning Lan... attempted suicide again, and there was no way she could be saved."

Ning Xi listened to his words with a somewhat dull expression.

It's not that I'm indifferent, but it's really too unexpected, and... So, for a moment I don't know what expression to show.

Qin Yan gently held her hand and was not in a hurry to take her over.

After waiting for a long time, Ning Xi took a breath and said calmly, "Okay, let's go over there."

"Wife..."

Qin Yan was still a little worried.

"It's okay, don't worry." Ning Xi shook her head.

Since this was Ning Lan's own choice, she had nothing to say.

As for those hatreds, or respects, when a person dies, the debts are settled. Whether it is good or bad, it is not worth her to worry about it.

As I said, she is just Ning Lan's only relative and she just needs to fulfill her responsibilities.

Seeing that she was indeed fine, Qin Yan helped her stand up.

"If you're busy with work, don't go. Just let Yan Lu accompany me."

Ning Xi couldn't help but say as she thought of the mountain of documents on Qin Yan's desk.

"It's okay. I can handle work at night. I'll go to the hospital with you first."

No matter how fine Ning Xi acted, Qin Yan was still worried.

"Let's go."

Seeing that he insisted on going together, Ning Xi could only swallow her words of persuasion and left the company with him.

When I returned to the hospital, there were two more uniformed police officers at the door of the ward in addition to the female police officer.

They were all leaders of the detention center, and they all rushed over when they learned that Ning Lan had died.

Seeing Ning Xi coming over, one of them immediately said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Ning Xi. Due to the negligence of our guards, 0812... She is very sorry!"

The female police officer lowered her head and said nothing.

Ning Xi and Qin Yan exchanged a glance before Ning Xi asked, "What happened? How...did she die?"

"She secretly increased the speed of the drip, which led to acute heart failure," the man said.

Ning Xi was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.

She knew Ning Lan's physical condition. Apart from her mental illness, her other health conditions were not very good either.

So it is entirely possible that excessively fast drips can lead to heart failure.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Ning, I didn't expect her to be like this, I..." The female police officer said self-blamingly.

Ning Lan pressed the infusion switch under the quilt and adjusted it secretly. She didn't pay attention to the speed of the drip at all. When she found out, Ning Lan had already gone into shock.

By the time we called the doctor, it was too late.

Learn the cause of Ning Lan's death.

Ning Xi was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't blame you. This is her choice."

Ning Xi understood that Ning Lan would not do this if she didn't have the determination to die.

Since she did that, it was her choice.

Can't blame anyone else.

Seeing that she didn't blame herself, the other party breathed a sigh of relief.

After saying a few more words, Qin Yan accompanied Ning Xi to the ward.

The person on the bed was covered with a white sheet.

As a doctor, Ning Xi was not afraid of corpses, but when facing the person in front of her, she hesitated for a moment before stepping forward, lifting the white cloth and taking a look.

Ning Lan's expression was very calm, without any sign of pain. It looked more like relief than death.

Ning Xi lowered her eyes slightly and covered herself with the white cloth again.

Qin Yan put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Shall I have someone take care of the paperwork and send it to the funeral home? Do I need to notify anyone else?"

"No need." Ning Xi shook her head.

Qin Yan understood.

The two left the hospital. Qin Yan just made a phone call, and someone else would naturally take care of the rest.

Two days later, Qin Yan accompanied Ning Xi and quietly placed Ning Lan's ashes in the cemetery, thus completely ending her life.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and even the streets seem a little bleak.

After resting at home for another two days, Qin Yan finally went to the hospital with Ning Xi.

It’s not that they are preparing to go to work, but today is the day they will meet the little ones for the first time.

When she was three months pregnant, Ning Xi decided to have an important pregnancy check-up.

Qin Yan looked nervous since he woke up, and his face was even more tense when he arrived at the hospital. If you didn't know him, you would think he was going to the battlefield.

Ning Xi couldn't help but laugh and said, "If I didn't know, I would have thought you were going to meet your girlfriend's parents."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense."

Because Ning Xi is a doctor and has always been in good condition, she had an ultrasound done once, which was when she fainted last time.
