Chapter 707: Silent Maintenance
"What are you looking at me for? It's not what I said."
Although Nie Xiu had long known Tu Ran's identity as a miracle doctor from the Internet, he had never told it, let alone to his mother.
Madam Nie looked at Tu Ran softly, "That's not what he said."
"With my identity, it's easy to investigate anything I want to, you know."
Well, this is the first time I feel such a strong sense of pressure.
Although she could feel the kindness that Mrs. Nie showed her.
But I still feel a lot of pressure in my heart.
Just now, in front of Nie Xiu, I gave Chen Yingli ice cubes and didn't think anything of it.
This will make me feel a little guilty.
"Ma'am, you are too kind."
"I'm not some miracle doctor. I just do some small jobs online to support my family."
"Medical skills are not worth mentioning."
“But Miss Shen is my good friend, I will do my best, don’t worry.”
"I feel at ease with you here."
Then, Madam Nie looked at her son and said, "What are you still doing here? I haven't eaten yet."
Little Jemma added, "Madam just finished the Southeast Asian Six-Nation Summit."
“After hearing about Miss Shen’s situation, I rushed back as soon as possible.”
"What do you want to eat? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it." Nie Xiu said expressionlessly.
"Girl, what do you want to eat?"
"Ma'am, I'm not hungry."
"Even if you're not hungry, have a bite with me. Just cook it according to this girl's taste." Mrs. Nie knew that Tu Ran was often invited to Chenyuan for dinner, so Chenyuan must know her preferences.
After a while, the midnight snack was served.
Classic Cantonese dim sum.
Clay pot porridge, shrimp dumplings, walnut buns, and even a serving of three-strand fried rice noodles.
The combination is very exquisite.
Cantonese cuisine is one of Tu Ran’s favorite foods, and he eats it very often.
Since Mrs. Nie had spoken, I had no choice but to eat with her even though I wasn't hungry.
Nie Xiu didn't say a word, but he joined in.
Xiao Jie stayed with Miss Shen, watching over her every step of the way.
Not long after eating, Xiao Jie came to report in surprise, "Madam, Master, Doctor Tu. Good news, Miss Shen's temperature has dropped, now it's 36.9 degrees Celsius."
Tu Ran nodded, "Yes, is she awake?"
“Not yet, I’m still sleeping, and I don’t dare disturb Miss Shen.”
"Let her sleep a little longer, my poor child." Mrs. Nie's eyes were full of distress.
Madam Nie glanced at her son and said, "The Ling family kid has been dead for several years. Why are you bringing up the past again?"
"It's a package sent from abroad. I really don't know."
"But I've already checked it out. It's not some conspiracy theory. It was kept by Ling Yuan's former teammates. My cousin was the one who contacted her and asked about Ling Yuan's life. Maybe that person sent it to the address. I didn't expect my cousin to react so strongly. It's been so long, I thought she had let it go long ago."
Nie Xiu's logical thinking is particularly clear and his ability to express himself is also very strong.
Even Tu Ran, an outsider, could hear something.
"Your cousin is the most loyal and nostalgic person."
"She kept all the woolen coats I bought her when she was little."
"How can you let go of such a grown-up person just like that?" After saying that, Mrs. Nie sighed slightly.
"Girl, you are very good at taking pulses."
"Tell me the truth."
"My niece, how long can she live?"
Mrs. Nie asked so directly that Tu Ran didn't know how to answer.
Telling lies is wrong, and you will be found out.
To be honest, she felt a little bit sorry.
Just as she was hesitating, Nie Xiu interrupted, "Why are you always giving her a hard time? Don't you know your cousin's condition best? Those old Chinese doctors in Beijing have explained it hundreds of times. Even the century-old ginseng you found on Snow Girl Mountain couldn't keep her alive, so why are you deliberately giving her a hard time?"
Mrs. Nie looked at her son for a long time without saying anything.
In her impression, she watched her son grow up and he never defended anyone.
Now, he actually spoke up to defend a little girl. It seems that he is really moved.
Madam Nie didn't say anything, but looked at Tu Ran and said, "Indeed, it's useless to ask. I know the child's health. Every day he lives is a day he earns."
"Madam, Miss Shen's parents...won't they come to visit?" Tu Ran asked curiously.
As soon as these words were spoken, the mother and son's expressions changed.
It seems like there is something unspeakable.
Tu Ran immediately changed the subject, "This clay pot porridge tastes good. I want to ask for the method so that I can make it myself later."
"Okay, I'll let the chef tell you how to make it later." Nie Xiu also gave way.
After supper, Chen Yingli was in stable condition.
Tu Ran got in the car and Xiao Jie drove her back.
Before leaving, she said hello to Mrs. Nie.
"Goodbye, ma'am, thank you for the late-night treat." She was still cautious.
"We'll meet again."
"It should be soon." Mrs. Nie said.
There was no time to think, the car started.
Maybe she was too tired, and on the way back, she fell asleep without anyone noticing.
But confusedly began to enter the dream again——
She dreamed that she went to the hospital, the hospital where Xie Nancheng's mother worked.
The huge corridor was empty.
Suddenly, a voice spoke—
"Your Vajra Seal is about to lose its effectiveness."
"She is a dying person. We will take her away as ordered."
"We have already reported your violation."
"Wait for your trial."
Tu Ran turned around suddenly, but saw no one behind him.
But that voice just now was clearly... a man's voice, and it seemed familiar.
"who?"
"Who's there? Come out quickly." Tu Ran shouted in his dream.
But woke up in reality.
When I woke up, I found myself still in the passenger seat.
"Doctor Tu, did you have a nightmare?" Xiao Jie asked with concern.
"Ah, maybe it's just too late and I'm too tired."
"I'm so sorry for interrupting your rest."
"But my master doesn't trust anyone else, he only trusts you." Xiaojie explained.
"I understand. It's okay. There's nothing to be sorry about. Mr. Nie and Ms. Shen have always been very kind to me."
"No matter what I do for them, it's not too much." She knows how to be grateful.
Xiaojie nodded, and at that moment, he let the cat out of the bag.
"Of course. Doctor Tu, your affairs are of great importance to the master. Just like the last incident..."
After the words came out, I realized that I seemed to have said too much.
Tu Ran grasped the key point intelligently, "What is it?"
"nothing."
"Xiao Jie, you can't lie to me. Just tell me, what did Mr. Nie do?"
Seeing that the stroll had passed, Xiaojie could only tell everything.
He mentioned that the old man from the Lu family had surgery in Beijing last time and needed a national player.
Xiao Jie continued to mutter, "Miss Shen doesn't hold a position, so she can't hire a nationally renowned doctor on her own. That time, Mr. Nie knew you had a request, so he immediately ordered it to be done. But my master is a very awkward person. He might be afraid that you might feel a psychological burden, so he won't let us tell you."
"It turns out that he was the one who took action that time." Tu Ran recalled that it was indeed exceptionally smooth.
But she and Xie Nancheng later thanked Miss Shen, and she even deliberately said a few words to him, which made her feel guilty when she thought about it.
"So that's how it is. Thank you for telling me."
"Doctor Tu, please don't mention this to my master. He will scold me to death."
"Okay." Tu Ran smiled and got out of the car.
Just as she turned to go upstairs, a voice sounded behind her.
"You're back so early, didn't you spend the night outside?"
She turned her head in surprise and saw Xie Nancheng's face, which was so ugly that it couldn't be any uglier.
"Why are you being so sarcastic?" Tu Ran's face also turned cold.
"The person who did the wrong thing seems to be justified?" He looked at her.
"What else? You're going to shoot me?" Tu Ran said angrily.
Xie Nancheng: ...
"Tell me, why did you hang up on me just now? Why didn't you listen to me?" The boss started to find fault.
