“Why did you call your boyfriend over?” Tang Li asked.

“It’s not like I have some serious illness. There’s really no need to trouble him.”

Tang Li felt a bit embarrassed about dragging Yan Ci along for such a minor matter.

Now that her boyfriend was also involved, she felt even more uneasy.

“It’s no trouble at all; he’s free these days, so it’s no bother,” Yan Ci reassured her.

“And besides, you’re my aunt. It’s only natural that he comes to check on you.”

“But having him here won’t be of any use. With Teng around, everything’s covered at the hospital. Having him here won’t change anything,” Zhou Xinyu said reluctantly.

“Cousin, there’s really no need to have him come. It’s not that necessary,” Chen Teng added.

“You saw how well I got along with Dr. Ma this morning. As long as we complete all the necessary tests, we’ll figure out what’s wrong. There’s absolutely no need to worry.”

“Let him come anyway. I’ve already called him, and it’s not polite to tell him to go back now.”

Under normal circumstances, Yan Ci wouldn’t be this insistent.

But this time was different, it was about her aunt’s health. After so much time without any diagnosis, Yan Ci was feeling uneasy.

She was worried that something might be seriously wrong.

If Lin Yi was there, she would feel much more at ease, so she insisted on having him come.

After all, they were there to see a doctor, and they couldn’t afford to be careless.

“But I think…”

“Alright, Xinyu, stop talking. Listen to your cousin.”

Chen Teng interrupted, glancing at his watch.

“It’s getting late. The test results should be out by now. Let’s go see my friend and have him take a look.”

“It’s lunchtime now. If we go now, we’ll be interrupting his break. That doesn’t seem right. Maybe we should wait a bit,” Tang Li suggested.

“No worries, we’re close friends. There’s no need to be so formal. We can go now.”

“Alright then, let’s go.”

Chen Teng went to the counter to pay the bill, and the four of them left Haiyan Tower, heading toward Huashan Hospital.

Yan Ci and Tang Li walked ahead, discussing the medical situation.

Meanwhile, Zhou Xinyu and Chen Teng followed behind, talking quietly.

“Teng, why did you stop me earlier?” Zhou Xinyu asked.

“I really don’t want to see that guy. Every time I see him, I just get angry.”

She was still upset about being embarassed during the meal at Furong Xiang yesterday.

The thought of seeing Lin Yi again only aggravated her further.

“I didn’t think about it at first, but the more I consider it, the more I think his coming might actually be a good thing.”

“A good thing? How could it be a good thing?”

“Think about it. My good friend works here, so Huashan Hospital is my turf. Even if he comes, he’ll just end up running errands, and we’ll be the ones in the spotlight. It will also prove that you’re better than your cousin.”

After Chen Teng’s explanation, Zhou Xinyu seemed to understand, and a smile appeared on her face.

“Teng, you’re right! You’re so quick to think on your feet. I need to learn from you.”

“It’s nothing, really.”

Chen Teng said, smiling smugly. “Just wait and watch. I’ll help you regain your pride.”

“Mmhmm, mua!”

Zhou Xinyu kissed Chen Teng on the cheek. “You’re amazing, Teng.”

Soon, the group arrived at the outpatient building, picked up the test results, and headed to the Eighth Inpatient Department.

Chen Teng’s friend, Ma Xiaoguang, was a doctor in the cardiology department, which was located in the eighth inpatient department, but on a different floor from the cardiovascular surgery department.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi arrived at Huashan Hospital.

However, instead of calling Yan Ci right away, he headed to the HR department.

“Hey, Director Lin, you’re here! Long time no see, and you’ve gotten even more handsome,” said Chen Ping, who was director of the Human Resources Department.

“You’re looking great too, Director Chen. If you weren’t already married, I’d definitely chase after you.”

“Stop it, Director Lin. I’m in my forties; you can’t be saying things like that. My heart can’t take it,” Chen Ping joked.

“If I get impulsive and divorce my husband, you’ll have to take responsibility.”

“No problem. I’ll take full responsibility.”

“Alright, enough with the flirting,” Chen Ping laughed.

“You wouldn’t be here unless you needed something, right?”

“I’m looking for someone. Is there a Dr. Ma Xiaoguang in the cardiology department? Can you help me check?”

“Hold on, I’ll check right now. No rush.”

“Thanks.”

Chen Ping quickly typed on her computer.

“Found him. He’s a young doctor who just finished his residency training and was assigned to cardiology.”

“That means he’s still pretty young.”

“He’s thirty this year. He spent some time abroad before coming here, completed his residency, and then joined cardiology.”

“Got it. Thanks, Director Chen. I’m heading out now.” Lin Yi waved goodbye. “And remember, if you ever divorce your husband, let me know. I’ll be waiting.”

“Get out of here, stop flirting with me.”

“Haha…”

After leaving the HR department, Lin Yi called Yan Ci to find out where she was, then headed toward the eighth inpatient department.

At the same time, Lin Yi thought about Ma Xiaoguang.

Yan Ci mentioned that they hadn’t gone through the normal registration process and had directly approached him.

A newly assigned doctor who hadn’t even started seeing patients yet shouldn’t have the authority to treat anyone.

Given his current situation, it would be impossible for him to have his own patients.

After all, not everyone had Li Chuhan’s expertise.

Based on this, Lin Yi formed an initial opinion about him.

For the kind of condition Yan Ci’s aunt had, they should have consulted a cardiovascular surgeon.

Ordinary people might not know this, but as a doctor at Huashan Hospital, Ma Xiaoguang definitely should have.

The fact that he didn’t refer them to the right department raised some red flags.

With that in mind, Lin Yi called Li Chuhan and asked her to stop by the cardiology department to take a look at Yan Ci’s aunt.

…

Eighth Inpatient Department, seventh floor.

Yan Ci and her group arrived at the cardiology department and met Ma Xiaoguang again.

Despite his young age, Ma Xiaoguang looked much older.

Although he was only 30, he appeared to be about 35.

“Dr. Ma, we’ve got the test results. Can you take a look and tell us what’s going on?”

“Sure, let me take a look.”

Ma Xiaoguang glanced at the report and frowned.

Not because there was a problem, but because he couldn’t identify any issues.

However, instead of being honest, he said,

“I can see some signs, but we need to do further tests. I’ll write up a referral for you to get checked out on the second floor of the outpatient department.”

Yan Ci frowned slightly, feeling a bit annoyed.

They had already done several tests that morning without finding anything. Was this guy even competent?
