She snatched the towel from Pei Fengzhi's hand, somewhat annoyed, and vigorously rubbed her head a few times.

Her once neat and tidy, semi-dry long hair suddenly turned into a bird's nest, appearing in a messy, explosive shape on Ye Ningwan's head.

Seeing her embarrassed and angry expression, Pei Fengzhi couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile that slowly widened.

His hand gently and softly brushed across Ye Ningwan's slender nape, his fingertips lightly kneading the area around her vital point.

"What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."

Tsk!

This person speaks so gently, yet just uttering this one sentence made Ye Ningwan tremble involuntarily.

This is what is meant by "when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head."

She immediately raised her small, palm-sized face and gave Pei Fengzhi a sweet smile.

"Honey, how are you so amazing! You guessed it right away, you know exactly what I'm thinking!"

She clasped her hands under her chin, winked at Pei Fengzhi, and looked on with utter admiration.

Pei Fengzhi looked at Ye Ningwan's affected manner, which resembled an adorable kitten, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He picked up a comb and carefully combed Ye Ningwan's long hair, gently smoothing it out as he spoke to her.

"Don't be angry. I didn't lie to you without a reason. Besides, since I already suspect you, I can find out who the Immortal Physician really is if I want to investigate."

"You can't escape it even if you try."

The last few words carried an unusual possessiveness, as if they were making a declaration to Ye Ningwan.

Ye Ningwan subconsciously looked up to see Pei Fengzhi's expression, but Pei Fengzhi had already returned to his usual gentle and refined self.

She bit her lip and looked down at the pair of dusty white shoes she was kicking, which had a footprint on them.

Suddenly, I understood the meaning behind Pei Fengzhi's words.

She said to Pei Fengzhi.

"They are my shoes."

She wasn't asking; she was certain!

She performed surgery on Pei Fengzhi under the guise of a medical immortal. Afterwards, Jiang Yinglin personally came to the bathroom to intercept her. He then made her take a bath because of the stinky pill. When she saw Pei Fengzhi again, all of her clothes had been changed.

The only thing missing was the pair of shoes on his feet!

Therefore, if Pei Fengzhi were to have any doubts, there would only be one possibility: Pei Fengzhi recognized the shoes, especially the particularly conspicuous half-footprint on them.

Sure enough, Pei Fengzhi nodded gently and then touched Ye Ningwan's soft, fluffy hair.

"Our Wanwan is so smart!"

Ye Ningwan silently rolled her eyes, not at all pleased by this kind of childish praise.

She removed Pei Fengzhi's hand from her head, turned and glared at him, saying irritably.

"I'm not a child anymore, don't touch my head like that!"

Pei Fengzhi looked at Ye Ningwan and said softly and gently.

"In my heart, you've always been a child. It's like in my memory, you've always been like a child—so innocent, so kind, and so..."

Pei Fengzhi didn't finish speaking because Ye Ningwan suddenly reached out and covered his mouth, stopping him from saying anything more.

Ye Ningwan frowned slightly and said calmly.

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it."

She disliked that Pei Fengzhi was thinking of another woman when he was with her, even though she didn't love Pei Fengzhi and didn't know if this so-called memory of Pei Fengzhi actually existed.

Pei Fengzhi met Ye Ningwan's slightly furrowed cat-like eyes.

Ye Ningwan's palm was warm and soft. His thin, cold lips gently brushed against her palm, and a strange flutter rose in his heart.

Suddenly, Ye Ningwan withdrew her hand from Pei Fengzhi's.

He glared at Pei Fengzhi and squeezed the palm that Pei Fengzhi had licked.

Meeting Pei Fengzhi's ambiguous smile, Ye Ningwan felt a strange, indescribable feeling rising in her heart.

It's hot, and my heart is beating fast.

She seemed to be sick; she had become very strange, completely unlike her usual self.

Ye Ningwan stood up abruptly, distancing herself from Pei Fengzhi as if avoiding a snake or scorpion.

"I...I'm hungry, I want to go eat! I...I'll have Jiang Yinglin come and keep you company!"

As Ye Ningwan said this, she practically fled.

Bang!

The door to the ward was opened and then quickly closed. Ye Ningwan's figure disappeared from the ward, and the ward returned to its previous silence, a desolation that seemed too abrupt compared to the previous liveliness.

Not long after, Jiang Yinglin pushed open the door and came in. He saw Pei Fengzhi already sitting on the only single sofa in the ward, with an open laptop on her lap. Her only usable hand was typing on the keyboard, and she was obviously already working.

Jiang Yinglin rolled his eyes at the quick-working employee and walked to the sofa.

"You went to work right after surgery. Is work more important than your health? Go to bed right now. If anything happens to you, the old man will definitely not let me off the hook, and neither will your precious little wife!"

Pei Fengzhi smiled.

"Don't worry, I have the most professional care, nothing will happen."

Jiang Yinglin scoffed at Pei Fengzhi's phrase "the most professional care," but he quickly remembered what Pei Fengzhi had instructed him to do earlier, so he asked.

"You know I should find the Healer, but she's already escaped. Give me three more days, and I'll find her within three days, or I'll face military law!"

Pei Fengzhi looked at Jiang Yinglin's confident expression and shook his head with a smile.

"No need, I've already found her!"

Jiang Yinglin looked incredulous.

"How is that possible?! Weren't you supposed to be in the hospital room the whole time? How did you find them? Do you have other subordinates in the country besides mine?"

"Who is it? Is it Yube? Or..."

Pei Fengzhi sighed and spoke earnestly to Jiang Yinglin.

“Jiang Yinglin, it’s not that you’re not sharp-eyed or careful enough, it’s just that you underestimate others too easily.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yinglin suddenly fell silent.

After thinking for a moment, he jumped up and retorted with a look of astonishment.

"Impossible! How could Ye Ningwan be a medical genius? That woman doesn't even know the most basic bandaging. Look, she bandaged your hand up like a pig's trotter before."

Pei Fengzhi just smiled and remained silent.

Jiang Yinglin stomped his feet for a while, then fell silent.

Recalling everything that had happened before, including his encounter with Ye Ningwan in the restroom, but the Healer who should have been there was nowhere to be found, and...

Jiang Yinglin gritted his teeth. His first reaction upon confirming that Ye Ningwan was a medical immortal was not that this woman was amazing.

Instead...

"Holy crap, that woman is wicked! She's clearly a miracle doctor, yet she still made a bet with me! She swindled me out of a Bugatti! A modified Bugatti, worth over twenty million!"
