Chapter 44 The Past
Xiao Nanxing shook his head subconsciously, "No, my feet should be able to slowly get down to the ground by then..."
Meeting his gaze, she lowered her voice, "Okay, okay, but we can't go together. Just walk me outside."
Pei Zhengping finally smiled. "Doctor Xiao needs to adapt more and use me more. Do you understand?"
If a woman doesn't need you, it's actually a man's failure.
Maybe one day she won't need you at all, she can be self-reliant, so why would she need you?
Pei Zhengping knew that Xiao Nanxing had been accustomed to being strong on her own over the years, and it was impossible for her to rely on him immediately.
The more he shows it, sooner or later she will get used to thinking of him first.
Pei Zhengping stayed for a while and then left in a hurry. Secretary Li's phone kept ringing outside. It was obvious that both of them were busy.
Xiao Nanxing touched her leg and sighed. She really couldn't rely on one person completely. She would feel very insecure if she did that.
Thinking about the exchange meeting, it will be another tough battle.
That night, Pei Zhengping was still on guard, Xiao Nanxing was reading, and he was working. The small ward was quiet and warm.
Xiao Nanxing thought it would be awkward, but he found that even if the two of them didn't talk, the atmosphere was pleasant.
Perhaps he deliberately restrained himself so that she wouldn't feel embarrassed.
The next day, Xiao Nanxing woke up and the flowers on the bedside table were replaced with yellow roses.
She slept very soundly last night and didn't know when Pei Zhengping left in the morning.
She asked Li Ma, "Did he have breakfast?"
"Don't worry, I'll take it. Secretary Pei pays great attention to health preservation. He runs and boxing every day, and goes to the gym when he has time. He is in great shape."
Xiao Nanxing thought, this is indeed the style of an old cadre.
She found that he rarely smoked, and occasionally smelled of alcohol when he came back from social events. He had very healthy lifestyle habits and was the doctor's favorite.
The more outstanding a man is, the more he will restrain himself, not be vulgar or follow the crowd, and have a stable mind.
They know the importance of a healthy body, Xiao Nanxing thought of this sentence he heard from somewhere.
Fei Dabai was checking on her in the morning. "You can go home to recuperate in a couple of days. The hospital just issued a notice to the department that the doctors injured during the free clinic can rest for half a month. The hospital will waive all the expenses."
Xiao Nanxing really didn't know, "Is there anyone injured in our Fourth Hospital?"
"It's Doctor Liu, he's about the same age as you, but I heard that the province praised everyone for not fearing hardship and showing compassion. Dean Zhang was so happy that he was so generous."
The previous cafeteria poisoning incident made Dean Zhang's face gloomy for a long time, and it finally cleared up now.
Speak of the devil, and he will appear. Dean Zhang walked into the ward with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.
He glanced at the busy Li Ma and said, "Doctor Xiao, take good care of yourself. Our hospital needs young and good doctors like you."
Xiao Nanxing smiled in an official manner, "Thank you for your concern, Dean. I will."
Dean Zhang and Aunt Li asked about Mr. Tang's health before leaving leisurely.
Pei Zhengping didn't come over at noon, so he sent her a WeChat message to inform her that he was going to the next city to attend an event and would not be back until the evening.
Xiao Nanxing thought about it and replied: "Okay, be careful on the road."
Pei Zhengping directly voiced her: "I want to take a screenshot of this scene, print it out and save it as our memoirs when we are old."
This was the first time she gave herself a positive response, which was worth remembering.
Xiao Nanxing felt his happiness, and the corners of her mouth curled up. She arrogantly stopped replying to him to prevent him from being too proud.
"Yo yo yo~~~~" Li Xiaoxiao's teasing voice came from the door:
"Look who this is, so bright and cheerful. I thought I'd see a miserable little cabbage. I was so anxious that I rushed back as soon as the event was over. I didn't expect that someone doesn't want me. Oh, so sad."
Xiao Nanxing coughed and suppressed his smile. "Welcome back, Doctor Li. Quack, quack."
Li Xiaoxiao put down the bag and the thermos in her hands. "It seems that Secretary Pei has taken good care of you. You don't need my sister's bone soup anymore."
Xiao Nanxing was furious and said, "I'm a patient, don't you feel sorry for me?"
"I feel so bad. Didn't I make this delicious soup for you myself?"
"You're not trying to poison me, are you?"
"That won't happen. What if Secretary Pei comes to me to settle the score for poisoning you?"
"Li Xiaoxiao, if you don't mention him for three minutes, he will die!"
"Why are you so sensitive? Xiao Nanxing, you're in trouble."
Xiao Nanxing was silent. Yes, if you can control your feelings and not dislike something if you don’t want to, there won’t be so many entanglements and worries.
Li Xiaoxiao knew what was on her mind. "I won't try to persuade you, I won't support you, I won't oppose you. No matter what the final result is, you still have me. At worst, we can just live our lives together."
Xiao Nanxing was touched, "Thank you, Xiaoxiao."
Just after two formal sentences, Li Xiaoxiao started gossiping, "Tell me, how did things reverse so quickly? Just now you said you wanted to reject it, but now you're together again. My dear sister, share the process with me."
"What kind of words are you using? How vulgar." Xiao Nanxing rolled his eyes at her and refused to say anything even if he beat her to death.
Li Xiaoxiao scolded her for being stingy, but she didn't care and turned to share other gossip:
"Remember Gu Yizhi? He went abroad, and Gong Fangfang couldn't find him. She went crazy in the class group, asking around for news about him. Tsk tsk, you didn't see the scene. She's absolutely crazy."
Xiao Nanxing was silent for two seconds and told her what had happened before.
"Well, I told you they were so ruthless back then. If it weren't for you being a face to get them selected by several supervisors, how could they have gotten a PhD with their level of ability?
All your sincerity towards them, giving them guidance and tutoring, and taking them to internships in advance, was all wasted."
Li Xiaoxiao was filled with righteous indignation. "What does it have to do with you that Gong Fangfang likes Gu Yizhi? You are completely innocent. It's outrageous. I'm so angry."
"And Zhao Yuwen, she always loses to you in the exams, and because she's jealous that you're better than her, she resorts to shady methods. There are so many people in the world who are better than her, can she really kill them all? What a bunch of psychos."
It was extremely unlucky for Xiao Nanxing to meet them.
After cursing, Li Xiaoxiao offered an idea, "Should we expose the contents of your USB drive?"
At that time, there was Luo Jiabao's mother Ren Mei in the school. She relied on her family background to cover up for Zhao Yuwen.
The slander was so full of loopholes, but no one investigated it. They just convicted Nan Xing and wanted to fire her.
It was Professor Bai Heng who saved Nanxing and transferred her to the Traditional Chinese Medicine major, allowing her to at least complete her studies.
But how could the evil people be willing to accept this? Not long after, Nanxing was tricked out by Luo Jiabao and surrounded by a group of thugs.
Nanxing escaped with blood all over his head, but his most important right hand was broken and his head was also injured. He fainted and slept for half a year before waking up.
Every time Li Xiaoxiao thought about that incident, she wanted to kill those people.
Xiao Nanxing shook his head. "It's useless. As long as they have a strong backer, these revelations won't hurt them."
But it will be soon. She has confidence in Pei Zhengping and hopes that he will not let her down.
Well, Li Xiaoxiao talked about the happy things, "I heard that Luo Jiabao is indeed ill and has been seeing famous doctors everywhere in the past few years.
I used to keep it a secret, but recently I heard that the witch Ren who was trying to induce labor had a disagreement with Zhao Yuwen, and then it was revealed that it was actually Luo Jiabao who was sick. Hey, if you ask me, that's retribution."
"How do you know so clearly?" Xiao Nanxing remained calm.
Of course she knew that Luo Jiabao was sick and that he might never be cured, she thought coldly.
Li Xiaoxiao muttered softly, "Many medical experts went to Beijing this time. I saw Ren Mei and Luo Jiabao there..."
