She spoke softer and softer, because Qiao Xinruo's expression told her that it didn't seem to be the case at all.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Qiao. If I said anything wrong, please just consider it me being nosy. Maybe people just have similarities."
Tingting shut up and ran away quickly.
This is so awkward. Why did she have to meddle in other people's business?
Qiao Xinruo was not angry.
But the doubts are real.
Do she and Su Yueya really look almost exactly alike?
They are both 21 years old.
If they didn't look alike, Tingting wouldn't have guessed they were twins based on their age after just one glance!
Could it be...?
A thought suddenly popped into Qiao Xinruo's mind.
She went back to the ward.
She didn't open the door; she just stood there, peering into the ward through the transparent section in the middle of the door.
Su Yueya remained lying down, but changed her position; she was now facing the door instead of having her back to it.
Therefore, Qiao Xinruo could clearly see the face that was said to resemble her.
Do they really look alike?
Is it really that similar?
Qiao Xinru recalled how she looked in the mirror and didn't think she resembled Su Yueya.
But why would Tingting lie to herself?
What's the point of this lie?
Su Yueya closed her eyes, seemingly resting.
Qiao Xinruo didn't push the door open and go in. At this time, it was really inconvenient for her to disturb the other person's rest.
After watching for a while, Qiao Xinruo turned and left.
She deliberately stopped as she passed the nurses' station.
"Dr. Qiao, is there anything I can help you with?" asked Jin Shulan, another nurse on duty.
"It's nothing," Qiao Xinruo nodded to her, then looked at Tingting and asked, "Do you really think I look a lot like that patient from earlier?"
"Really." Tingting nodded, her expression quite serious.
Qiao Xinruo looked puzzled again.
Seemingly afraid that Qiao Xinruo would think she was lying, Tingting quickly pulled Jin Shulan and shook her, asking, "Xiaolan, let me ask you, don't you think Dr. Qiao and Su Yueya from room 307 look a lot alike?"
“Su Yueya…” Jin Shulan thought for a moment, confirmed which patient it was, and then nodded vigorously.
"Yes, it looks very similar!" she remembered.
"Dr. Qiao, I was shocked when I first saw Su Yueya. You two really look alike. I'm not the only one who says this. We even chatted for a bit this morning when I was doing rounds with Dr. Liu!"
Do so many people think it looks alike?
The thought that popped into Qiao Xinruo's mind became increasingly active at this moment.
“Even Dr. Liu noticed it. Although you, Dr. Qiao, usually wear makeup, and we’ve only seen Su Yueya without makeup, your features are just alike!” Jin Shulan added.
Qiao Xinruo thought for a moment and said, "Let me see the forms Su Yueya filled out when she was admitted to the hospital."
Tingting and Jin Shulan were very puzzled.
Aren't they sisters?
Do I need to see more information?
However, neither of them raised any questions. They simply took out Su Yueya's hospital admission records and handed them to Qiao Xinruo.
"Thank you." Qiao Xinruo took the documents and returned to the doctor's office.
First of all, their ages do match; they are both 21 years old.
However, their birthdays are not on the same day...
I guess I was just overthinking it.
The thought that had just crossed Qiao Xinruo's mind was instantly extinguished.
She closed the document, about to laugh at herself for her wild idea, when her eyes swept over the family history section.
This section usually lists any illnesses in the family, which can serve as supporting information and give doctors more ideas when considering the patient's condition, since many diseases are hereditary.
The section on Su Yueya's family history states: Orphan.
Is she an orphan?
The thought that Qiao Xinruo had just extinguished instantly reignited!
If Su Yueya is an orphan, then the discrepancy in her birthday is reasonable!
After all, she probably didn't even know which day her birthday was.
So, Qiao Xinruo began to carefully read the information.
This contains Su Yueya's height, weight, and blood type. Her height and weight are basically the same as Su Yueya's, and their blood types are the same.
Qiao Xinruo put down the documents and leaned back in her chair.
She recalled a conversation she had with her father in the past.
"Dad, are you kidding me? What do you mean I have a twin sister? Haven't I always been the only daughter in the family?" Qiao Xinruo found it funny and thought her father was joking with her.
However, this joke is not funny at all.
Qiao Hanxue looked at his daughter with loving eyes, yet it was as if he was looking through her at someone far away.
"It's true, you have a twin sister, but she was kidnapped by human traffickers when she was little." His tone was filled with deep sorrow.
Qiao Hanxue's eyes and tone told Qiao Xinruo that her father was not lying.
She immediately sat up straight, and her tone became serious.
"Dad, what happened then? She was kidnapped by human traffickers, and you never looked for my sister again?"
"I've been searching for many years, but there's still no news."
"Then why did you never tell me?" Qiao Xinruo felt very sad because of her older sister, whom she barely remembered.
Her lack of recollection is enough to show that she was very young when she was taken away by human traffickers.
What good can come of a child being taken away by human traffickers?
Qiao Xinruo's heart clenched.
“I used to think you were too young to tell you this kind of thing, but now that Xinruo is all grown up, Dad thinks you should know that you have an older sister,” Qiao Hanxue said.
Looking at his proud daughter, he couldn't help but wonder if his eldest daughter, somewhere out there, was doing well.
Perhaps, she is still alive?
With that, Qiao Xinruo sat up straight again.
She studied medicine and understood genetics.
Since her parents had twin brothers, it means that her parents' genes carry the gene for having twins. It's normal that she and her sister are also twins.
Her father would never deceive her with something like this.
That Su Yueya...
Qiao Xinruo had a vague recollection of it.
She is a student at Wenxiu Medical College in a self-study class. I even taught her once. She was chosen to give a demonstration on stage, and she performed exceptionally well. It's clear that she has a talent for medicine, just like me, and has inherited her father's talent!
Qiao Xinruo's heart started racing!
She felt she really might have found her sister!
The talent she displayed in medicine, more than any objective condition in the data, made Qiao Xinruo feel that she and Su Yueya might be sisters!
They look alike, are the same age, and are also talented in medicine.
If this isn't her sister who was abducted by human traffickers, then could it be someone else in the world?
She couldn't sit still any longer!
"Director!" Qiao Xinruo went straight to the director's office.
"I need to take leave! It's urgent, I need to take leave!" Qiao Xinruo said excitedly.
