Chapter 26: The Quiet Man's Feelings Quietly Emerge



Sheng Anning has had a very casual personality since childhood. She goes wherever she wants, never puts herself in a difficult position, and faces her likes calmly.

She never cares about other people's opinions, as long as she is happy.

After finishing breakfast in a good atmosphere, Sheng An Ning cleared the dishes and took them to wash. Zhou Shixun also stood up and followed. He recovered very well.

Sheng An Ning admired Zhou Shixun's endurance and healing ability. After all, there was no pain pump at the moment, and he wouldn't have to inject various anti-inflammatory drugs.

He glanced at Zhou Shixun who was following him and said, "Although you have recovered well, you still have to be careful not to pull the wound."

Zhou Shixun hummed, not really caring: "I'll go for a walk, go to the morgue."

Sheng An Ning instantly became interested: "Do you want to go and see if there are any discoveries? Can I go with you?"

Zhou Shixun looked at Sheng Anning's sparkling eyes full of gossip, and knew that she was overthinking things, so he nodded: "Okay, let's go and take a look."

Sheng Anning trotted to the kitchen with the steel pot, added water to it, and then hurried to find Zhou Shixun.

The morgue is in the northwest corner of the hospital, surrounded by green pines and cypresses, making it look particularly gloomy.

Sheng An Ning saw Zhou Shixun walking slowly as if taking a stroll, and reminded him in a low voice: "Do you think the mastermind behind this is working in the morgue?"

Zhou Shixun lowered his eyes and looked at Sheng Anning's careful and cautious appearance. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his lips and nodded in cooperation: "That makes sense. Let's be careful."

Seeing Zhou Shixun say this, Sheng Anning looked around more carefully, as if someone might come out at any time.

As a result, Zhou Shixun walked around and didn't see anyone. The door of the morgue was also locked.

When Zhou Shixun walked back, Sheng Anning was a little surprised: "Is that the end? Did you find anything?"

Zhou Shixun shook his head: "No, it's just that the hospital's wall needs to be repaired, otherwise in the fall, the children from the neighborhood will come and steal the dates."

Sheng An Ning felt ashamed and annoyed that her IQ had been fooled, so she went over and grabbed Zhou Shixun's sleeve: "Are you still doubting what I said?"

Because of anger, his eyes are bright and particularly lively.

Zhou Shixun shook his head again: "No, the person I think is in contact with Li Keda is not a hospital staff or a morgue staff. He is just trying to confuse us, or deliberately pass on a message to us that someone wants to harm me."

Sheng An Ning was a little confused: "Why?"

Zhou Shixun was also unclear: "I asked Song Xiuyan to check it out, and there should be results soon."

Sheng An Ning looked up at Zhou Shixun, only then did she realize that Zhou Shixun was very tall. The original owner's height of 1.65 meters just reached his shoulders.

He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is it because you killed an enemy before, and his family came to seek revenge?"

Zhou Shixun didn't know why Sheng An Ning had such a fantastic idea, and shook his head: "No, there is no such possibility."

They are combat BDs, have no personal grudges, and are not targets of retaliation.

Sheng An Ning said "Oh", was she really overthinking?

Zhou Shixun glanced at Sheng Anning again, his eyes always involuntarily attracted by the vivid expression on her face. He swallowed and retracted his gaze: "I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, go back to the family compound first, and then go back to Niuwan Village, okay?"

Sheng Anning had no objection: "It depends on whether the doctor agrees to discharge me. If the wound heals well, it should be fine."

The only person that worried her was someone who could be discharged from the hospital five days after the operation, but other people would rest at home, while Zhou Shixun still had to run around.

Coming out of the morgue, Sheng An Ning noticed that Zhou Shixun had walked two steps faster, keeping a distance of nearly two meters between them. She then looked at the occasional passers-by around them.

It was a bit laughable. Zhou Shixun was keeping a safe distance between him and her.

In this small place in this day and age, even married couples rarely walk side by side.

Sheng Anning went to the cafeteria to wash the dishes and asked Zhou Shixun to go back to the ward first.

When Zhou Shixun returned to the ward, Song Xiuyan was already there, sitting beside the bed and reading the book he had read last night. When he saw him come in, he pointed to the notes in the book and said, "Your English has improved rapidly. These translations are very accurate. No wonder your teachers praised you when you were in school."

Zhou Shixun went over and grabbed Song Xiuyan's arm, pulling him up from the sickbed: "Sit on the chair."

Song Xiuyan sneered: "What a problem, there are no bacteria on my body."

He sat down on the chair obediently while complaining. When he saw Zhou Shixun bending down and tugging at the bed sheet, and sitting down under another bed, he realized that the bed he had just sat on was where Sheng Anning rested at night.

He pulled the corner of his lip and gave Zhou Shixun a playful smile.

Zhou Shixun pretended not to notice: "How's the investigation going?"

Song Xiuyan pointed at the table: "I did find out something, but it's very strange. I don't know what it has to do with you. Li Keda has a sister who married in Beijing. A while ago, her sister and brother-in-law came back to visit their family and they haven't left yet."

"Li Keda's brother-in-law's surname is Kang. He works at the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources. He is in his forties. He has no connection with you and you probably don't know him."

He has known Zhou Shixun for twelve years, so he is very familiar with Zhou Shixun's circle.

Zhou Shixun frowned. He really didn't know anyone in Jing City. "Besides them, are there any other abnormalities?"

Song Xiuyan shook his head: "No, Li Keda is a good doctor and has a good reputation in the area. It's just that he refused to take sides back then and was never taken seriously. He is an upright person. It is said that such a person would not misdiagnose, let alone accompany others in acting."

Zhou Shixun couldn't figure it out either: "I didn't know Li Keda before, can you help me check the background of his brother-in-law."

Song Xiuyan agreed immediately: "This is not difficult, I can just ask my eldest brother to help. Anyway, the more impossible it is, the more likely it is. You should be careful too."

Zhou Shixun nodded: "I understand. I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and will return to Hewan Village the day after tomorrow."

Song Xiuyan wanted to say something but finally couldn't help himself: "Finally you're willing to go back? I think you're just too good to them, otherwise you and Luo Caixia wouldn't have gotten together, that girl has been waiting for you for so many years."

Zhou Shixun frowned and was about to speak when he saw Sheng Anning come in with a lunch box. For some reason he felt a little uneasy and pursed his lips without saying a word.

Song Xiuyan stood up and greeted Sheng Anning with a smile: "Hello, sister-in-law."

I felt a little uneasy in my heart, wondering if Sheng An Ning heard it. After all, they were already married, and it was not good to talk about other girls.
