Zhou Qiqi thought that Lin Yao would slink away if she couldn't get into the VIP ward.
Unexpectedly, this woman was still persistent and was still hanging around outside.
Zhu Yingying's eyes reddened, and she spoke with a wronged expression.
"She seems to have mistaken me for you, blocking me in the hallway and insisting that I explain myself..."
Zhou Qiqi listened and couldn't help but chuckle.
Zhu Yingying has been preoccupied lately, not eating properly, and frequently going to "tie the dolls."
She did indeed look just like the original Zhou Qiqi who had just transmigrated—skinny like a bean sprout.
Moreover, to facilitate the inspection, she wore a blue jacket and black pants, making her look even more convincing.
However, their facial features are completely different, how could they be mistaken for each other?
Lin Yao actually dared to bully Yingying, Zhou Qiqi will definitely teach her a lesson, but not now.
Her stomach was practically empty from hunger, so she needed to fill it up first.
The state-run restaurants of that time were not like the big restaurants of today. The dishes served each day were ordered a day in advance, and you couldn't just order whatever you wanted.
There was no fish or soup on the menu today, so Yingying could only bring back a few light stir-fried dishes.
After eating and drinking her fill, Zhou Qiqi finally had the energy and led Zhu Yingying outside.
"Zhou Qiqi, come out here right now!"
Outside the stairwell, Lin Yao shouted at the top of her lungs.
At first, she was a little afraid of the two soldiers standing guard at the gate, but later she found that they were only responsible for guarding the gate and could not do anything to her as long as she did not go in.
Gradually, she grew bolder and started shouting at the top of her lungs.
Her presence drew stares from every family member and soldier entering and leaving the VIP ward; she was particularly conspicuous.
As Zhou Qiqi walked towards the door, she could still hear two women whispering to each other.
"Who is Zhou Qiqi? What's going on?"
"I don't know either..."
Those who can enter and leave VIP wards must be of high status themselves. Unlike Qiu Chunfang and her ilk who love to gossip, they are not without curiosity when faced with such a situation.
How embarrassing!
Zhou Qiqi couldn't help but roll her eyes and stormed out in a huff.
"Zhou Qiqi, you give me..."
Outside, Lin Yao was still calling out.
However, after shouting for more than an hour and not having eaten lunch, I was a little too tired to shout anymore.
When she suddenly saw Zhou Qiqi walk out of the door, she immediately perked up and rushed towards Zhou Qiqi, shouting, "Hey, you!"
But the object of her madness was not the real Zhou Qiqi, but Zhu Yingying behind Zhou Qiqi.
"Hey hey hey~ Over here!"
Zhou Qiqi had anticipated this, and immediately reached out to stop her.
"Are you blind? I'm Zhou Qiqi!"
"You? You're Zhou Qiqi?"
Lin Yao's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets.
She had only met Zhou Qiqi once. At that time, Zhou Qiqi was wearing a gray cloth jacket with patches on it, her face was sallow, and she looked malnourished. She was a typical country bumpkin.
She was afraid of looking at him too much and being mistaken for someone from the countryside, so she didn't pay much attention to him and naturally didn't remember what he looked like.
The girl in front of me was wearing a short, warm white collared knit top and a khaki A-line skirt, with a thin brown leather belt around her waist.
The design was so exquisite that she had never seen anything like it in a department store, and it reminded her of the dean's daughter who had returned from studying in England.
No, even the dean's daughter isn't dressed this fashionably.
This outfit is not only novel in style, but also very form-fitting and neat, as if it were carefully tailored by an old tailor.
Aside from her clothes and appearance, this girl had fair skin with a rosy glow, a round face, and delicate features like a porcelain doll. Her round almond-shaped eyes exuded a bright and proud air.
Looking at her own light pink dress, she felt as if it were more than a decade out of style compared to hers.
Once upon a time, she was a city dweller, while Zhou Qiqi was a country girl.
But today, the situation is completely reversed.
Zhou Qiqi became a sophisticated and fashionable wife of a high-ranking official, while she seemed like a country bumpkin from the countryside.
She could hardly believe her eyes and asked again.
"Are you really Zhou Qiqi?"
"It's absolutely true, no doubt about it."
Zhou Qiqi casually tossed her hair, the double-layered lace headband adding to her elegance, which made Lin Yao grit her teeth in anger.
No wonder Shen Huaichuan suddenly stopped listening to her; he must have been bewitched by that vixen Zhou Qiqi!
She was standing outside in the wind, and she'd been thinking about this the whole time.
Shen Huaichuan was madly in love with her before, and treated her so well!
Although they were always cold and had poker faces, the two of them never exchanged more than ten words a year.
However, from childhood to adulthood, whatever she wanted, she could get it as long as she told Shen Huaichuan!
When it came time for her to look for a job, she only had to say it once, and Shen Huaichuan specially asked the dean to get her an internship.
This made her a very special person at the provincial military hospital. All the doctors and nurses treated her with utmost respect and didn't let her do any work.
She originally thought she could definitely stay at the provincial military hospital and have a secure job for life.
Unexpectedly, when the list of those to be admitted to the hospital came out, her name wasn't on it!
She immediately rushed to the dean's office and, after much pleading and cajoling, finally learned that it was actually Shen Huaichuan's idea!
She couldn't believe it at first, but now she finally understood.
Lin Yao stiffened her neck, her fingertips almost poking Zhou Qiqi's nose.
