Situ Jin didn't say anything, but one of the nurses behind him spoke.
"That lady was called over by Doctor Xiang. The one with all his hair combed upwards and glasses is Doctor Xiang."
Xu Yaran looked at the stern-looking middle-aged man standing behind Tang Li and said, "That doctor is very handsome."
"That's right. Doctor Xiang is one of the most handsome doctors in our hospital. Moreover, he's the director. There are many people who like him."
Xu Yaran seemed interested and asked, "Is Doctor Xiang married?"
"He's married, but his wife and son are both out of town. He rarely goes back."
"Is that so? For this doctor to be able to become a chief physician in this hospital, he must be very hardworking and skilled."
While saying that, Xu Yaran sneered, thinking to herself, "I guess that doctor is so happy here surrounded by all these beautiful nurses and patients that he doesn't wanna go back at all."
She felt that there must be something going on between Tang Li and Doctor Xiang.
Tang Li was not a medical student. Other than her good looks, she was useless in the hospital.
At the thought of this, Xu Yaran could not help but smile meaningfully.
She really wanted to take out her phone and take a picture of the scene over there so that she could show it to Qi Yihan.
"Yaran."
When she was lost in thought, Situ Jin called her suddenly.
Xu Yaran came back to her senses and asked, "Yeah?"
"Aren't you looking for earrings? I'll get them to go with you."
Then, he said to the three nurses standing by the side, "Take her to my villa. Other than the second floor, you guys can look anywhere."
Xu Yaran was reluctant to leave because she was planning to confront Tang Li.
However, judging from the situation over there, the discussion wouldn't end anytime soon, so she thought she'd go through the motions of looking for the earring. Then she stood up and left with the nurses.
When they walked out of the park, Xu Yaran asked casually, "Do you know anything about that woman with Doctor Xiang?"
The three nurses looked at each other and shook their heads. One of them said, "I'm not very sure. Our hospital doesn't allow us to gossip about patients' families."
Xu Yaran knew that they would not tell her easily, so she tried a different tack. "The doctors in this hospital are really approachable. In my impression, doctors and the patient's family members would not be so close."
"She is different from the other family members."
"How is she different?"
The three nurses fell silent. There were some things that they did not dare to say.
But Xu Yaran didn't mind and didn't ask further.
Shortly after they set out, they arrived at Situ Jin's villa.
There were bodyguards staying inside the villa.
Xu Yaran was actually not familiar with Situ Jin. She called him on the off chance that Situ Jin would not turn her request down because he was her brother's high schoolmate and friend.
After entering the villa, Xu Yaran showed everyone the picture of the earrings that she had taken earlier and told them where she must have left the earrings, and then everyone split up to look for them.
Actually, the earrings were not lost, but Xu Yaran joined the search nonetheless just to not appear suspicious.
After searching for a while, her phone rang.
It was her good friend, Qin Sang Sangsang, who had returned two months earlier than her from abroad. "Yaran, let's go shopping today."
After going to the corner, she smiled and said, "I'm afraid I can't today. I'm at Hospital X."
"Hospital X!" A raised voice came from the other end of the line. Then Qin Sangsang continued, "How did you get in? I thought they wouldn't let anyone in without the patient's permission."
"I told you that one of my brother's friends is seeking treatments in this hospital, didn't I? I wanted to meet Tang Li today, so I lied to him, saying that I left my earrings here when we came to visit him yesterday. That's how I got in."
"Then don't come out just yet. I want to get in too."
"What are you coming here for?"
"I told you that my fiancé is hiding from me in that hospital. I must make him acknowledge me this time."
"You mean the one who got engaged to you when you were young and you only found out about his existence this year? The one you fell in love with at first sight when you first met him?"
"That's right, that's right. You must ask your friend to let me in later."
Without waiting for a reply, she hung up.
Xu Yaran had no clue who her friend's fiancé was. When she came back from abroad, she met up with her friend who told her about how handsome her fiancé was. However, in Xu Yaran's opinion, no one could be more handsome than Qi Yihan.
After the nurses and bodyguards searched around the villa for a while, they told Xu Yaran that they couldn't find her earrings.
Xu Yaran pretended to be sad and disappointed, saying, "Alright, let's just forget about it. It probably means I'll have to go shopping and buy a new pair, although I like it very much."
With that, she went back to the park.
Seeing her, Situ Jin was surprised. "You found the earring really quickly."
"No, we searched everywhere but couldn't find it. Probably, the cleaner mistook it as rubbish and threw it away. If it's already in the garbage dump, there's no need for me to take it back anymore." After saying that, Xu Yaran looked towards the group of people who were still talking.
She asked Situ Jin, "What are they talking about? Why hasn't the conversation ended yet?"
"I don't know." Situ Jin lowered his eyes and started coughing again. After coughing, he stood up and said, "I'm going for a walk. You can leave when you want."
Xu Yaran didn't intend to leave so soon. Looking at Situ Jin, she replied, "Okay, Brother Situ."
Situ Jin looked at her face for a few seconds and warned all of a sudden, "No matter what you do, you have to know when to stop."
Stunned for a moment, she then smiled and nodded at him. "Got it."
After Situ Jin left, Xu Yaran strode towards Tang Li.
When Tang Li spotted Xu Yaran, she was already pretty close.
Looking at her coming closer, Tang Li wondered if she came so early just to look for her.
At this moment, Xu Yaran, who was still in the distance, suddenly shouted "Sister Tang, I didn't expect you to be here."
The moment Xu Yaran spoke, everyone stopped and looked at her.
Doctor Xiang also asked, "Mrs. Qi, is she your friend?"
"No, I don't know her that well."
Tang Li's reply was so straightforward that the smile on Xu Yaran's face almost disappeared. Her expression changed several times before she finally asked with her watery eyes, "Sister Tang, why did you say we're not familiar. The Qi family is very close to my family."
Looking at her, Tang Li crossed her arms. In her life, she hated bitches the most.
"The Qi family is close to a lot of families. Do I have to know every one of them? But thanks to your reminder, I suddenly recalled something. Yesterday, someone told me that a woman named Xu Yaran went to my husband's company to seduce him. Was it you?"
Xu Yaran went black for a second, and then she shouted at her angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Why are you getting so worked out?" Tang Li asked calmly. She turned to Butler Zhang and asked, "Butler Zhang, is this Miss Xu?"
