Due to the increase in popularity, Xia Xingran's number of patients has increased linearly, and she has also been transferred from the emergency room back to the outpatient clinic. Considering Xia Xingran's physical condition, Peking Union Medical College Hospital had no choice but to start limiting the number of patients.
At eight o'clock that evening, Xia Xingran stretched out, slapped his back, and prepared to pack his things for get off work. As soon as he walked out of the clinic door, he saw Zhao Fei wearing a blue firefighter uniform sitting in the waiting area at the door.
Seeing Xia Xingran walk out, Zhao Fei immediately stood up and saluted her with a military salute. Xia Xingran didn't know how to reply, so she hurriedly bent down to return the favor.
"Doctor Xia, Dr. Xia, you don't have to be like this, you're too polite." Zhao Fei was embarrassed by Xia Xingran and quickly helped Xia Xingran up with one hand.
Xia Xingran covered her mouth and yawned and asked, "Commander Zhao, why haven't you returned to the fire brigade yet? Why are you looking for me so late?"
Zhao Fei helped Xia Xingran out of the hospital gate. Xia Xingran saw the official car with double flashes at the hospital gate. Zhao Fei opened the car door for Xia Xingran and made a gesture of invitation.
Xia Xingran stretched his neck and looked inside, and saw that in addition to the driver, there was also a man in a straight suit sitting inside. Her extended leg immediately retracted instinctively.
"Dr. Xia, this is tomorrow's lawyer." Zhao Fei's face was half annoyed and half apologetic.
"Tomorrow Dr. Xia will appear in court as a witness with me, but today I couldn't wait for Dr. Xia to be free during the day. I think if possible, there are some procedures and arrangements. Can we communicate them first tonight?" Zhao Fei kept asking. Pursing her lips, Xia Xingran could see all the tension and worry in her body.
Xia Xingran, who had seen more than a hundred patients today and had three surgeries, wanted to lie down on the ground and fall asleep.
She looked around inside and outside the car, rubbed her temples, tried her best to smile and nodded, "Okay, Commander Zhao, no problem."
After saying that, she got into the car, steeled herself, took out pen and paper from her schoolbag, and began to seriously communicate with the lawyer about the process of tomorrow's trial.
Looking at it from Zhao Fei's perspective, Xia Xingran was very cautious, asking every detail as detailed as possible, confirming again and again and recording them all.
By the time everything was confirmed, it was almost eleven o'clock. Zhao Fei said sorry several times, but Xia Xingran didn't answer and just waved his hand.
Zhao Fei insisted on sending Xia Xingran home safely, so Xia Xingran agreed. After asking for the address, Zhao Fei just finished talking to the driver and turned around to find Xia Xingran, her head leaning against the car window, already asleep.
After a while, light snoring could be heard, and everyone could tell that Xia Xingran was really tired.
Zhao Fei hurriedly took off his firefighting uniform and put it on Xia Xingran. He blushed and hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to put Xia Xingran's head on his shoulder to sleep.
Half an hour later, the driver drove smoothly into Xia Xingran's downstairs. Zhao Fei couldn't bear to wake up the sleeping Xia Xingran, so he prepared to carry her upstairs.
As soon as the driver and lawyer moved Xia Xingran out, Han Chenluo, who had been waiting for a long time, appeared in front of them with precision and speed as if he had emerged from the ground.
With clear warning and murderous intent in his eyes, he instantly took Xia Xingran and held her firmly in his arms.
"What is going on? Why is my sister with you? What did you do to her so late?"
Black clothes and dark hair made Han Chenluo's already fair skin look even paler and terrifying. He raised his eyes and stared at the few people in front of him. He was completely different from his usual self. His eyes were numb and exuded a strong and bloodthirsty aura.
Zhao Fei swallowed subconsciously, cleared his throat, stretched out his hand to Han Chenluo, and said friendly: "You are classmate Han Chenluo. Hello, I am Zhao Fei. I heard that when Dr. Xia saved me that day, You are here too."
Han Chenluo glanced at Zhao Fei suspiciously, not caring who was in front of him. He suppressed the anger in his body and asked again and again: "What I'm asking is, what happened to sister?"
A cold light suddenly appeared in the air, and murderous intent was everywhere.
Zhao Fei felt a little cold, tightened his clothes and explained, "I'm talking to Dr. Xia about some business. She was too tired and fell asleep. Nothing else."
Han Chenluo's gloomy expression remained the same
It was ugly, and there was a strong smell all over his body.
"It's just this once, it won't happen again."
The low and hoarse words seemed to imprison a wild beast. Han Chenluo's pupils were slightly dark and unclear. Liang Liang turned around and carried Xia Xingran into the elevator.
When the driver saw Han Chenluo leaving, he finally dared to lean out half of his body and look upstairs. He murmured with lingering fear: "Good guy, with such an imposing manner, if he didn't know he was Dr. Xia's younger brother, he would have just thought he was his significant other. .”
After hearing this, Zhao Fei frowned slightly and stared at the ground for half a day before leaving and returning to the army.
…
Since seeing through things a few nights ago, Xia Xingran seemed to be avoiding Han Chenluo intentionally, going out earlier and coming back later. This made Han Chenluo feel very uncomfortable.
Han Chenluo opened the door, placed Xia Xingran on the bed and covered her with a thin quilt. The moon tonight is warm yellow, illuminating the room with a misty ambiguity.
This kind of alone time is even more valuable because it has been missing for several days. Han Chenluo sat on the side of Xia Xingran's bed, staring at her pink sleeping face, as if he were in heaven, like his dream had come into reality.
After an unknown amount of time, Han Chenluo reluctantly stood up, leaving lingering wrinkles on the sheets. As he left, the notebook in Xia Xingran's hand also fell down, making a clear and loud sound.
Han Chenluo immediately knelt down, picked up the notebook, and glanced at the bed in panic. Xia Xingran was probably really tired. She had always been a light sleeper, but she didn't wake up and breathed evenly.
Han Chenluo held his chest and exhaled softly. He stood up, packed up Xia Xingran's notebook and put it on the bedside table.
The legal words in the corner of the notebook caught Han Chenluo's attention. He opened it curiously and looked at it, the expression on his face becoming more and more unpredictable.
"Sister, I'm preparing for tomorrow's court hearing." He put down his notebook and leaned on the desk in front of the window. A long black shadow suddenly appeared on Xia Xingran's black and white patterned quilt.
Han Chenluo touched his chin and smiled softly. Then he picked up Xia Xingran's cell phone, estimated the time, set an appropriate alarm, and walked out of Xia Xingran's room with long legs.
"See you tomorrow, my good sister."
Han Chenluo closed the door, with an unknown smile on his eyes and brows.
…
At seven o'clock the next morning, the alarm rang on time. Xia Xingran, who was sleeping soundly, immediately opened her eyes and took the phone.
She said that luckily she didn't forget to set the alarm last night, and quickly changed her clothes and washed up.
Still unwilling to give up, she called Han Chenluo again, but Han Chenluo refused to answer her call, saying that he was on his way to school.
Xia Xingran's whole body visibly relaxed, and then he let out a heavy sigh.
After a moment, she pursed her lips and patted her face to cheer up. After opening the notebook and memorizing it several times, I said a few words to keep up the good work. She went downstairs and took a car to attend the hearing at the Supreme People's Court of Beijing City.
At ten minutes past eight, Xia Xingran arrived twenty minutes early, and Zhao Fei had been waiting at the door for a long time. Xia Xingran entered the court directly through the work channel as a witness.
As soon as he entered, Xia Xingran's eyes lit up and he immediately ran over in three steps and then two steps.
Although the most important evidence was lost, Gu Xi still filed a lawsuit against Fu Yanci, other state agency staff, and the person directly responsible for Ruihu Company, a total of more than 50 people.
"Oh my god, are there actually so many people related to this explosion?" Xia Xingran stood next to Gu Xi and looked at the file at a glance, feeling shocked.
Gu Xi sneered, her eyes sharp: "165 people died and 798 were injured. I must get this blood debt back from these scum today!"
Like the light dispelling the darkness, the gods are about to descend into the world. Xia Xingran looked at Gu Xi with eyes full of appreciation and full of confidence in the upcoming court session.
Eight twenty, the last ten minutes before the trial begins.
Under the guidance of the staff, Xia Xingran sat down next to the plaintiff
Witness box. At this time, a group of defendants headed by Fu Yanci came from the opposite side. Xia Xingran looked at them, and her breathing became more and more rapid.
When he saw clearly who was sitting on the witness stand for the defendant, Xia Xingran couldn't bear it any longer and stood up with a leap, his eyes seeming to spit out fire.
On the defendant's witness stand, Han Chenluo smiled with a ruthless look on his face. After noticing Xia Xingran's angry eyes, he shrugged at Xia Xingran without caring, and then waved leisurely, looking very comfortable.
