Chapter 1442 So they've become confidants?
Xia Yan was relieved to hear that. "That's good."
As they spoke, the group arrived at Renxin Medical Clinic.
A Ning climbed down from Xia Yan's arms and said to Doctor Xie, "Sister Xie, you have to be careful. Make sure someone goes with you on your way home. I won't go to your house today; I have to go see my sister."
Doctor Xie smiled and said, "Alright, then see you another day."
"Okay, then tell Xiao Que when you get back, and have him tell Master where I am going."
Xiao Que was a maid in the Tan family. The Tan family took good care of Doctor Zhao and A Ning. Knowing that A Ning would come to Renxin Medical Clinic from time to time, they specially found a maid to pick her up and drop her off.
Not only does A Ning have a maidservant, but Doctor Zhao also has a servant. He can order the servant to do anything he needs.
Today, it was Tan's maid, Xiao Que, who brought A Ning to Renxin Medical Clinic. At first, Xiao Que would wait at the clinic, but A Ning stayed there all day, so it wasn't good to let her wait idly. So she told Xiao Que to go back first.
After Ah Ning finished speaking with Doctor Xie, she turned to look at Xia Yan.
Xia Yan nodded to Doctor Xie and then led her away from the clinic.
Once outside, A-Ning excitedly asked, "Is my sister in the inn? Is she with Brother Meng? News came from Changjin Prefecture that Brother Meng has once again topped the examination. He's amazing! Master said that with Brother Meng's knowledge, he'll definitely be able to become the top scholar in the imperial examination. A top scholar! Then my sister will be the top scholar's wife!"
Xia Yan couldn't help but laugh as he listened to the little girl's lively voice, but before he could answer, Meng Han had already started talking impatiently.
"Sister Shuyu isn't at the inn. She said she has something to do, but she'll be back soon. My cousin is out too. Sister Aning, you're so young and you already know medicine? No wonder you're Sister Shuyu's sister, you're just like her."
Ah Ning puffed out her chest slightly. "Right? I also think I'm smart and capable. I have my sister's blood in me."
Xia Yan, “…” Why does this sound so strange?
Meng Han nodded vigorously from the side, "Yes, yes, that's what they call 'like sister, like sister.' Sister Shuyu is learned, talented, and exceptionally beautiful; she's a true heroine."
Xia Yan was full of questions. It was true that Miss Shu Yu was capable and intelligent, but Meng Han had only known her for a short time. Her biggest impression of her was that Miss Shu Yu slapped Tao Qin. Just from that one slap, she recognized Tao Qin as a heroine.
But A Ning looked on with a deep sense of agreement, not thinking that Meng Han was exaggerating at all. In fact, she went even further, praising Shu Yu to the skies.
The two girls, who were six or seven years apart in age, hit it off immediately. On their very first day of meeting, they introduced each other as confidantes and started talking about Shu Yu in countless ways. They chattered away the whole way, giving Xia Yan no chance to interrupt.
He sighed softly, unable to understand the girl's thoughts.
Fortunately, the three of them soon arrived at the inn where they were staying. When they returned to their room, they didn't see anyone. It seemed that Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng hadn't returned.
Ah Ning was somewhat disappointed and could only wait in her room.
Xia Yan went downstairs to get some snacks for them. Just as he put them on the table, there was a knock on the door.
As soon as Xia Yan opened the door, he saw Shu Yu standing in the doorway.
"Second sister." A Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, and she took a step forward and hugged Shu Yu's waist.
