Dr. Ning in the hospital did not expect that Mr. Qin's support for her work was more than just lip service.
Not long after she and Professor Qi returned to the department, she received a call from Director Yan, in which she learned that the Si family had again asked her to treat Si Jianzhang. This time, they were even more active in donating a building, and seemed to have taken the initiative to talk to Dean Ling about it, and were willing to take out half of the donation to support Dean Ling in building the building first.
Dean Ling was so happy.
After listening to this, Ning Xi just smiled and told Director Yan to continue doing what they had said before, first selecting people to form a team, and then starting the treatment.
As for other matters, the dean and others will handle them, so they don't need to worry about them.
Hang up the phone.
Ning Xi went to the psychiatric department to see Ning Lan again.
This time, Ning Lan didn't drive her away directly. "Xixi, Linlin, is there any news about Linlin?"
Seeing her coming, Ning Lan hurriedly got out of bed and walked towards her worriedly.
The nurse was a little worried when she saw this, and was about to stop him, but was stopped by Ning Xi's eyes, "Nurse Liu, please go out for a while."
"Ah, this..." The nurse looked at her worriedly.
"You go out first, I'll call you if there's anything."
"...Then I'll be at the door. Dr. Ning, please call me if you have any problems." The nurse said when he saw that she insisted.
Ning Xi nodded.
Ning Lan looked at this scene with dissatisfaction in her eyes, but for the sake of her daughter's news, she did not speak for the time being.
Ning Xi looked at her again and said, "Yes, she seems to have left H City. I don't know where she went.
However, I have asked someone to help find it, and I will tell you when I have news."
She also asked Qin Yan about Zhao Kailin last night, and Qin Yan told her that Zhao Kailin had left H City and no one knew where she had gone to. She left in the middle of the night.
Although Qin Yan didn't say it explicitly, Ning Xi was not stupid. Combining what she had learned about the time when the fire broke out at the Zhao family's house, she had some guesses.
However, this guess was too hard to believe, so she didn't plan to tell Ning Lan for the time being.
"She left H City? Why did she leave?" Ning Lan was relieved at first when she heard the news about her daughter, but then she was very puzzled.
"I don't know." Ning Xi shook her head.
Ning Lan was obviously dissatisfied with her attitude and became agitated again: "I don't know, then what do you know? No wonder Linlin always said you bullied her, she was right!"
"Aunt, I didn't!" Hearing her say this again, Ning Xi's expression became serious. Looking at Ning Lan's red eyes, she said, "I didn't bully Zhao Kailin, and Qin Yan didn't bully her either. But she, as a cousin, repeatedly went to her cousin-in-law and even got entangled with him. Aunt, don't you think there's something wrong with her doing this?"
She didn't know whether Ning Lan was really confused or just pretending, but she didn't want to continue bearing this false accusation, not to mention that Qin Yan was involved.
Ning Lan felt a pang of fear at her serious gaze. She slightly avoided her gaze and said, "She is your cousin. Even if she came to look for you, she must have something to do."
"What's the matter that she has to bypass me and go to her brother-in-law again and again?" Ning Xi curled the corners of her mouth coldly. After seeing Ning Lan's guilty look, she knew that she knew the truth in her heart.
But even so, she still wanted to protect Zhao Kailin, so she had nothing to say.
The disappointment and discomfort in her heart were suppressed again, and Ning Xi looked at Ning Lan with a cold face.
Ning Lan clenched her hands tightly, her eyes wandering, avoiding her gaze, "Don't talk nonsense, don't make any entanglements, don't make random guesses just because you like Xiao Qin, and ruin your cousin's reputation.
Forget it, if you don’t want to help me, then don’t help me, but I want to be discharged from the hospital, and you can’t lock me up!”
Yes, that's it!
Having said that, Ning Lan's confidence instantly returned, and she looked directly at Ning Xi and said indignantly.
"I'm not sick, you can't lock me up like this, I'm your aunt, you can't do this to me!"
Ning Lan became excited again as she spoke.
Ning Xi frowned, looking at Ning Lan's excited and indignant expression, and felt that she was more and more unfamiliar.
Perhaps, after all these years, she has never really understood her aunt.
She lowered her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Aunt, there's nothing wrong with your body, but your mood has been unstable recently, so you have to stay here for a while."
"What do you mean? What's wrong with me? Ning Xi, I'm your aunt! You can't just…"
"Aunt, if you don't agree, I won't be involved in Zhao Kaifeng's affairs anymore. I heard that for the things he did, he'll be sentenced to at least seven years. If no one intervenes, it could be even longer."
Ning Xi raised her eyes and looked at her again.
Perhaps she never fully understood Ning Lan, but she still knew how to exploit her weaknesses.
Sure enough, when Ning Lan heard her say this, her words were choked in her mouth, and she stared at her with her red eyes.
Ning Xi looked at her calmly.
"You, Xixi, I am your aunt!" Ning Lan couldn't believe that she dared to threaten her!
"Aunt, I'm doing this for your own good." Ning Xi said calmly.
I no longer felt soft-hearted because of her identity.
Ning Lan looked at her almost indifferent eyes, and panic started to rise in her heart. Her lips moved tremblingly, "Xixi..."
"Aunt, please take a rest first. I will come back to give you acupuncture later." Ning Xi retracted her gaze, turned around and walked out.
"...Ning Xi, are you really going to treat me like this?"
“…”
"Haha...you are as ruthless as your father!" Ning Lan laughed twice, and then said with resentment.
Ning Xi paused as she walked towards the door, turned back and looked at her again and said, "Aunt, are you very familiar with my father? Do you know where he went?"
She only asked tentatively, but seeing Ning Lan's expression, she froze for a moment, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. "How should I know? I just think he's heartless. Otherwise, why would he abandon your mother and you two sisters and have no news until now!"
Ning Lan said quickly.
Ning Xi looked at her steadily, as if trying to judge whether what she said was true or false.
Ning Lan clenched her hands nervously, and even in the air-conditioned room, she broke out in a thin layer of sweat.
"Knock knock, Doctor Ning, two policemen are looking for you." The sudden opening of the ward door broke the quiet atmosphere in the ward. Ning Lan and Ning Xi looked at the nurse who came in at the same time.
And behind the caregiver, there were indeed two uniformed policemen standing.
