Chapter 256 has always been the center of envy.
Upon hearing this, Chi Shaokang became furious.
He slammed his hand on the table and roared, "Outrageous! This old man is so old, yet he still has the nerve to covet young girls as beautiful as flowers. He's shameless!"
Upon learning that the source was Xia Yuhuan, Chi Shaokang showed no intention of backing down.
He said in a deep voice, "If anyone else were to expose his relationship with Master Shi, it would definitely implicate us."
"But if we discover and deal with it ourselves, then there is room for maneuver."
Chi Yanzhou nodded: "That's what I was thinking too, that's why I came to discuss countermeasures with you."
...
Xia Yuhuan was unaware that Chi Yanzhou had already accurately identified Shi Ye as the candidate.
She was busy moving offices at that moment.
Her patience with that group had reached its limit; she had to stay far away from them today, and she couldn't even wait until tomorrow!
Deng Qili was busy at the time, and no one was there to help her, so she carried the load by herself.
She was carrying so much stuff that she couldn't see where she was going, and the documents on top were about to fall over. Someone caught her as she called out softly.
"Is Dr. Xia moving to a new office?" Zhou Shizui asked.
Xia Yuhuan nodded: "Yes, thank you, Dr. Zhou."
Zhou Shizui: "You're welcome. Give me your things, and I'll help you move them over."
Xia Yuhuan quickly refused, "There's no need for that trouble, I can move there myself."
Zhou Shizui had already reached out to help her take it.
In order to avoid physical contact with him, Xia Yuhuan had no choice but to let go of his hand.
“We’ve been through thick and thin together, and you won’t even let me help with this little thing? Dr. Xia is treating me like an outsider.” Zhou Shizui said.
Xia Yuhuan smiled awkwardly: "I was just worried that you had things to do and I didn't want to hold you back."
"I just got back from work, and there's nothing urgent that I need to do right now," Zhou Shi replied.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhuan stopped refusing, told him the location of his office, and then went back to continue moving things.
She assumed that Zhou Shizui would have already left by the time she moved her things to the office.
Unexpectedly, she ran into Zhou Shizui halfway there.
Zhou Shizui: "Let me help you."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and took the things from Xia Yuhuan's hands.
Seeing this, Xia Yuhuan went back to her original office to get her things.
When they met Zhou Shizui again on the way, he reached out to take the things, but Xia Yuhuan didn't give them to him again.
"The things have all been moved, there's only this much left, so there's no need to trouble Dr. Zhou," Xia Yuhuan said with a light smile.
"Thank you so much, Dr. Zhou, you've been a great help to me today."
Zhou Shizui shook his head and said, "We're all colleagues, Dr. Xia, you don't need to be so polite."
"Since Dr. Xia has no further assistance, I'll be leaving now. Goodbye."
Xia Yuhuan: "Okay, thank you, Dr. Zhou. Take care, Dr. Zhou."
Watching Zhou Shizui's figure disappear from sight, Xia Yuhuan then carried her things to her new office.
The office wasn't very big, nor did it look luxurious. It only contained common items like bookshelves, desks, and chairs; there was nothing else inside.
The things that Zhou Shi had brought in earlier were now neatly arranged on the table.
Xia Yuhuan put the things down and glanced at the time.
Then she started walking out, stopping at the place where she and Zhou Shi had met, and noted down the time that had taken.
Then, she continued walking at her own pace to her original office, and from there to the meeting point.
After having a clear understanding of the distance and time between the two, Xia Yuhuan did a simple conversion in her mind.
The timing is similar, so there seems to be nothing to doubt or criticize.
So, is she overthinking it?
Zhou Shi was simply helping her move things; he had no ill intentions whatsoever.
Xia Yuhuan couldn't figure it out for a while, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
She carefully organized the things she had moved in.
Xia Yuhuan was quite busy that day. She was almost constantly on the go, so busy that she could only grab a quick bite for lunch.
When it was time to leave work in the afternoon, Xia Yuhuan walked out with her mind blank.
She heard people talking around her.
"Who's that handsome guy at the door? Is he looking for someone?"
"I heard he's a family member of one of our hospital staff members, and he's here to wait for his wife."
"Who's so lucky to marry such a handsome guy?"
"I don't know, I heard they've been here for a while."
"Oh my god, how romantic! He even picks up his lover from get off work. I wonder who is so lucky to have married him."
Xia Yuhuan smiled faintly as she listened to the excited voices of the two nurses.
Was he just young and naive, thinking that picking up his wife from get off work made him a good man?
That's a ridiculously low standard for a good man.
As Xia Yuhuan was thinking, the moment she stepped into the hall, she saw the man leaning against the car outside the door.
Chi Yanzhou seemed to sense her gaze, and looked up at her, his eyes shining brighter.
He straightened up and waved to Xia Yuhuan.
"Wife, over here."
Xia Yuhuan never expected that one second she was still thinking about crickets in her heart, and the next second she would become the lucky one who was picked up.
She couldn't help but run happily to Chi Yanzhou's side.
She tried her best to control her speed, but she ran too fast and still ran straight into his arms.
Chi Yanzhou reached out and hugged her. His core strength was frighteningly powerful, and his lower body was very stable. Even under such an impact, his body remained unmoved.
"Why are you running? I'm right here, I'm not going to run away." Chi Yanzhou reached out to tidy her slightly messy hair.
Xia Yuhuan clutched his clothes and looked up at him.
"Why did you come to the hospital to pick me up? Didn't you say you had something to take care of today?"
"Could it be that things aren't going well?"
Xia Yuhuan asked somewhat nervously.
After all, this matter concerned whether she could help the original owner avenge her, so she was naturally nervous.
"No, come on, get in the car first, we'll talk on the way home." Chi Yanzhou patted her shoulder, signaling her not to be nervous.
Xia Yuhuan obediently replied, "Okay."
The two then got into the car one after the other, and Chi Yanzhou started the car and drove away.
After they left, the hospital staff who saw them hugging and getting into the car together couldn't help but explode.
"Oh my god, that handsome guy is actually Dr. Xia's lover! God is so unfair!"
"Exactly. Dr. Xia herself is already amazing enough, she's beautiful and has great medical skills, I never expected that her partner would be so good-looking too."
"Comparing yourself to others is just awful, it's outrageous!"
The crowd was buzzing with gossip, their jealousy almost unrecognizable.
Deng Qili had just finished get off work and, hearing the crickets chirping, went over to them.
"So you're just envious and jealous?"
"Can you honestly say you're not envious or jealous?" someone replied.
"He's good-looking, and he even came to pick her up. The two of them hugged in public. They must have a really good relationship!"
"Even if they are husband and wife, there is no reason for them to hug in public."
Everyone chimed in with their own words, their voices filled with jealousy.
Until someone discovered that the newcomer to the gossip circle was Deng Qili.
Everyone in the hospital knows that Deng Qili and Xia Yuhuan have an excellent relationship now.
Almost everyone knows that.
As a result, those who spoke ill of Xia Yuhuan immediately fell silent and dared not utter a sound.
