Chapter 1440 It was A Ning who was blocked.

With Meng Han standing in front of the two, Xia Yan felt half relieved and acted without restraint, quickly knocking all of them to the ground.

Those men probably knew they couldn't do anything to them, so they stumbled to their feet and angrily said, "You just wait."

Then, enduring the pain, he quickly ran out of the alley.

After they all left, Meng Han breathed a sigh of relief, then snorted and looked at Xia Yan, "Didn't you say you wouldn't interfere? What's wrong? You suddenly become a hero and save a damsel in distress when you see a young lady?"

Xia Yan glanced at her, then walked past her to the two girls behind him.

Meng Han expressed her contempt for him, saying he had no self-control and couldn't resist a girl. She said he was even worse than her and that she would have to give him a good talking to when they got back.

However, Xia Yan suddenly squatted down and asked the young girl, "Miss A Ning, are you alright?"

Meng Han was stunned. Was this someone she knew?

Ah Ning obediently shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm fine, I'm not afraid at all. These people are just trying to scare people."

Xia Yan laughed, "That's good." He knew this young girl was brave, and seeing that she wasn't injured, he was relieved.

Before he could stand up, Meng Han had already squeezed through the crowd and asked curiously, "Xia Yan, do you know this little girl? Who is she?"

Xia Yan said helplessly, "This is A Ning, Miss Lu's younger sister."

Miss Lu's younger sister? Meng Han's eyes lit up instantly. "You're Sister Shu Yu's younger sister?! Sister Aning, you're so cute! I'm Meng Han, I'm Meng Yunzheng's younger sister. From now on, we're best friends."

"Huh?" A Ning was surprised. Brother Meng's sister? She had never heard of her before.

Meng Han was about to explain her identity when Xia Yan stopped her in time, "Don't rush to speak, miss. We need to leave here. Those people escaped; who knows if they'll bring reinforcements? Let's find a safe place first and talk slowly, okay?"

Meng Han felt a little regretful, but she still stood up, suppressed her surging urge to speak, and nodded in agreement.

Xia Yan let out a breath before turning to look at the girl next to A Ning.

The girl in front of them thanked them sincerely. A Ning introduced her, "This is Sister Xie. She is a doctor at Renxin Medical Clinic."

Renxin Medical Clinic is the clinic where Ah Ning, a curious female doctor, first went but encountered a thug committing a crime.

That's when I met Dr. Xie.

At the time, Dr. Xie liked her very much and wanted to take A Ning as his apprentice. However, when he learned that she already had a master, he regretfully gave up the idea, but still gave her his home address.

However, Ah Ning had never been there.

This time, they followed Doctor Zhao to the prefectural city to detoxify and treat Young Master Tan. Because they needed to get medicine frequently, Renxin Medical Clinic happened to be the closest large medical clinic to the Tan family, with a complete range of medicinal materials, so the master and apprentice often went there.

Over time, A Ning and Doctor Xie became very familiar with each other.

Ah Ning also liked Dr. Xie very much. When she had free time, she would go to Renxin Medical Clinic to run errands for Dr. Xie and occasionally take his pulse and make a diagnosis, which gave her a lot of practical experience.

Dr. Xie also learned about many rare and difficult diseases from A Ning that she had never seen before. She didn't expect that A Ning, who could only bandage wounds and assist others last year, would make such great progress in just one year.

The two had reached a point where they could discuss medical techniques with each other, which amazed her.
