Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1077: Chapter 635: Unusual Behavior

Luo Ye and Zhao Qianqian returned just as Ouyang Zijing was wheeled out of the operating room. Seeing Ouyang Zijing’s exhausted look, Zhao Qianqian lowered her head and followed the nurse toward the ward. Liu Ailing hurriedly caught up, grabbed her hand, and comfortingly squeezed it.

Zhao Qianqian forced a smile, kept her head down, and continued walking silently.

Xing Nong pulled Luo Ye aside, frowning slightly: ”Luoluo, what exactly did she want from you? Why do I feel like her expression isn’t quite right?”

”We’ll talk about it later.” Luo Ye glanced at Zhan Hao, Wu Zetian, and others standing outside the door, ”Things here aren’t convenient for you to get involved in. Why don’t you go tend to your own tasks?”

Zhan Hao thought for a bit, then stood up: ”We’ll head out first then.” Seeing Wu Zetian and Liu Xing still hesitating, he dragged them away.

”Boss...” Wu Zetian struggled to turn his head back, ”Luoluo...”

Zhan Hao twisted his head around: ”Are you going to look after Ouyang Zijing?”

”No! But...”

”No ’buts,’ hurry and leave.” Zhan Hao kicked his butt, ”Don’t be so fussy, how does it look for grown men to linger around here?”

”Luoluo, call me if anything comes up.” Wu Zetian unwillingly shouted back.

Zhong Xiuxiu came out of the ward, glanced at Wu Zetian, and slightly frowned. Luo Ye quickly stepped forward: ”Doctor Zhong, thank you for your hard work!”

”It’s my duty, but...” Zhong Xiuxiu sighed lightly, ”Your captain was too impulsive this time. Two and a half months pregnant, it’s the most dangerous period. This is just asking for trouble!”

Luo Ye smiled apologetically, unsure of what to say.

Seeing her like this, Zhong Xiuxiu didn’t continue complaining and turned to walk toward her office. After a couple of steps, she turned back: ”Too many people in the ward will affect the patient’s rest.”

”Yes, I’ll arrange it right away!” Luo Ye responded quickly.

Feng Tianzhi had not shown up at all, which was very much in line with his usual style—what is done is done, what is wrong is wrong. It’s impossible for him to hover over Ouyang Zijing; therefore, as the vice-captain, Luo Ye naturally had to bear the necessary responsibility.

The anesthesia hadn’t worn off yet, and Ouyang Zijing was still asleep. Luo Ye waved to those at the bedside to step out of the ward.

...

Zhong Xiuxiu returned to the office, paced around uneasily, and turned toward the interrogation room. As expected, Captain Feng was still there, leisurely watching some files, not showing a hint of concern.

”Captain Feng, can’t you sit more alert?” Zhong Xiuxiu’s eyes filled with a strand of helplessness.

”Then what should I do?” Feng Tianzhi looked at her calmly, forcing a dramatic smile, ”Should I ask Ouyang Zijing to lie for me?”

”You...” Zhong Xiuxiu shook her head with a bitter smile, ”Why haven’t you changed at all over the years? When will you grow up a bit?”

”Am I not mature?” Feng Tianzhi took a small mirror to look at himself, ”I feel like I’m almost overripe.”

”Madman, I’m not joking with you. Although the surgery was very successful, and the patient won’t have any aftereffects after recovery, your actions this time might make it hard to get away cleanly.”

”So what?” Feng Tianzhi raised his eyebrows, ”Zhong Xiuxiu, even though we’re classmates, it’s not your place to dictate to me, is it?”

”Why can’t you recognize good intentions?” Zhong Xiuxiu rubbed her forehead in frustration, ”After all these years, why haven’t you changed? I’ve always wondered, with a temper like yours, how did you get to where you are today?”

”No need for you to worry.” Feng Tianzhi swayed leisurely, ”As you said, perhaps my promotion was a bit fast. It’s good to take the chance to slow down with this incident, isn’t it?”

”Alright, my interference was unnecessary and anxious.” Zhong Xiuxiu shook her head and turned to leave.

”Xiuxiu, thank you.”

Zhong Xiuxiu paused, sighed: ”Madman, if it wasn’t for my husband always speaking well of you, I wouldn’t want to meddle. What needed to be said I already said, what needed to be done I already did, the rest is up to you.”

Feng Tianzhi’s expression grew serious: ”Someday, I’ll visit Old Jing.”

Zhong Xiuxiu turned abruptly, eyes full of delight: ”Really? Are you serious? You’re not lying to me? You’re really not lying?”

”Of course.” Feng Tianzhi nodded solemnly, ”A gentleman’s word is his bond!”

”I’ll call him right away; he’ll be thrilled...” Zhong Xiuxiu spoke while quickly running to the office.

Luo Ye stepped out from beside the door of the interrogation room, smiling awkwardly: ”I wasn’t intentionally eavesdropping, it’s just that when I arrived, she was on her way out...”
