Chapter 193 Return to the Island
When some villagers talked about this incident, they looked at Xiao Hai in particular.
At this time, Xiao Hai's face flushed red, and he shouted at the villagers, "What nonsense are you talking about? Doctor Su and Chief of Staff Yan must have a very good relationship. It's just that the Chief of Staff is too busy with military duties, so he rarely has time to accompany Doctor Su."
"Stop talking nonsense here. Whether someone has children or not is their own business. How do you know there's something wrong with Dr. Su's health? Maybe they don't want any children at all right now?"
When others saw Xiao Hai speaking up for Su Jinhui, they felt more and more that there was something wrong with their relationship.
They pursed their lips and were busy with the things in their hands, but the seeds of doubt grew deeper and deeper until they took root and sprouted.
A few days later, Yan Li'an completed his mission and returned to the island.
Unexpectedly, the overwhelming gossip and rumors got into his mind. As soon as he came back, Xiao Zheng, who used to work under him, immediately reported to Yan Li'an what had happened on the island recently and how Su Jinhui saved Xiao Hai.
"Chief of Staff, during your absence, after the last strong typhoon, your wife rescued a man, but his identity is unknown, and he doesn't even know his own name. Since we found him on the beach, we'll temporarily call him Xiaohai."
When talking about this, Xiao Zheng's eyes flickered. There were some things he didn't know how to say to Yan Li'an.
"What's wrong? It's only been a short time since we last met. I just went to Kyoto for a while. How could you not recognize me so quickly?"
"No."
Xiao Zheng certainly knew about the relationship between Yan Li'an and Su Jinhui, which must be very deep. However, he was not sure whether he should tell Yan Li'an about some recent rumors on the island.
Seeing his hesitant look, Yan Li'an lost his patience. "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have something to say, say it quickly. Are you afraid to talk to me now that I've been promoted? You weren't like this when I was the deputy head of the group."
Xiao Zheng shook his head. He had made up his mind and said to Yan Li'an, "That's not the case. The main thing is that Xiao Hai seems to have been very close to Doctor Su recently."
"Some people even said that Dr. Su and you have a bad relationship. Now suddenly a young man appears out of nowhere to care for her, and Dr. Su usually takes good care of him."
"Anyway, there have been quite a lot of rumors about them on the island these days, but now that you're back, I think these rumors will be dispelled on their own."
Yan Li'an thought it was something big, but after all this time, it turned out to be just some messy gossip.
"She's a doctor, so she's kind to her patients. Isn't that normal? Do I have to be suspicious of her every time she's kind to every patient of the opposite sex? I'm not one of those boring gossipers who overthinks things."
"If a couple doesn't even have this basic trust, what's the point of getting married?"
Yan Li'an was a little angry, and Xiao Zheng closed his mouth and didn't dare to say anything.
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll take a look at this Xiao Hai and see where he came from."
Yan Li'an deliberately chose Su Jinhui to examine Xiao Hai, and came to the hospital to visit her that day.
When he arrived at Su Jinhui's office, he happened to see Su Jinhui and Xiao Hai alone in the office.
Originally, this was nothing, but what Xiao Hai said made Yan Li'an feel a little uncomfortable.
"Doctor Su, I heard that the Chief of Staff has returned."
Su Jinhui was stunned. He had been very busy recently, and he didn't care much about the military affairs on the island, so he had no idea when Yan Li'an came to the island.
"Where did you hear this news?"
Xiao Hai was a little surprised when he saw Su Jinhui asking him questions without knowing anything. "Doctor Su, you're his wife. Don't you know he's already on the island?"
"Then the Chief of Staff is going a bit too far. How could he not tell you such an important matter?"
"And I know there have been a lot of bad rumors lately. I'm sorry they spread. I thought the Chief of Staff would be able to seek justice for you when he returned to the island at this time."
Xiao Hai showed a look of disappointment on his face. He looked at Su Jinhui with even more distress, "No matter how busy the Chief of Staff is, he can't just ignore his wife, right?"
When Su Jinhui heard him say this, she felt something was strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange about it.
On the contrary, Yan Li'an, who was at the door, heard a strange man caring about his wife on his behalf, which made him feel a little angry.
He didn't knock on the door, but pushed it open and walked in. "When did I stop caring about my wife?"
Hearing this, Su Jinhui raised her head sharply, and the moment she saw Yan Li'an appear, her eyes were filled with joy.
Even his pace became more cheerful, and he took a few steps towards Yan Li'an.
She said excitedly, "You're really back. I thought Xiao Hai heard what he said from someone else."
Yan Li'an reached out and touched her head, looking at her lovingly, "I'm sorry, I just arrived on the island yesterday, but there were a lot of things waiting for me to do when I got back here, so I didn't go home yesterday, but stayed in the military area."
"I heard there have been big changes on the island. The team leader called me over to talk about the situation there. I know about it, and it's changed a lot because of you. I'm very proud of it."
Su Jinhui smiled. The two of them hadn't lost their affection for each other after being apart for so long. Instead, Xiaohai watched them being affectionate with each other.
I felt like an outsider and felt bad.
"Doctor Su..."
After hearing Xiao Hai's voice, Su Jinhui realized that there were other people in the office. She looked at Yan Li'an awkwardly and said, "This is Xiao Hai. He has traumatic amnesia. He must have been traumatized before, so he can't remember his name or where he lives. I've temporarily placed him in an uninhabited villager's house."
"Today is the day he comes for a follow-up visit."
Su Jinhui explained.
"I know. When I came here, Xiao Zheng told me everything that happened on the island. Since he's your patient, I won't think about it in other ways. But you've been working hard during this period. Did you get enough rest while I was away?"
Su Jinhui knew that as soon as Yan Li'an appeared, he was disciplining the child like an adult. Although he was a little nagging, she felt very happy because she was wrapped in Yan Li'an's care.
"Okay, okay, there are still people here, so don't tell me all this. I'll finish the things on hand first and then tell you."
Next, Su Jinhui carefully examined Xiao Hai's body.
During this time, Yan Li'an noticed Xiao Hai's focused eyes when he looked at Su Jinhui, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
