Ye Qianqian gave a sudden start and quickly scurried out of the chief editor’s office.

As she exited, she suddenly caught sight of the dazzlingly beautiful diamond on her ring finger.

She quickly turned her head and stuck her hand out as she announced, “I’m getting married soon! Wish me luck!”

The chief editor gritted her teeth and picked up her cellphone. She raised it in the air and was about to hurl it at Ye Qianqian.

Ye Qianqian quickly made a move to dodge her and ran off.

The chief editor withdrew her hand. Huffing and puffing, she made a call. When it connected, her expression suddenly changed. She pitiably whined into the line, “Hubby, I need consolation...”

By the time Ye Qianqian returned home, Shen Zhilie had already left.

When Ye Qianqian was done packing her belongings, she laid on the bed. She couldn’t resist the urge to raise her ring in front of her face and wiggle her finger.

Her face broke out into an uncontrollable smile. Ye Qianqian squealed in delight.

She had been looking at it for a whole day. The ring was so beautiful that she just couldn’t get enough of it.

Closing her eyes, Ye Qianqian could almost imagine how she would look in a wedding gown.

She’d be beautiful, very beautiful.

It was the weekend. The sun in Kingstown was harsh and unyielding.

Ye Qianqian packed two sets of clothes and bought some health supplements that were native Kingstown specialties before setting out on her journey to the Capital.

After a three-hour flight, she landed at the Capital’s international airport. The moment she exited the plane, she called Shen Zhilie.

The phone rang for a while before Shen Zhilie finally answered. The background sounded very noisy.

“Hey, I just landed. Are you here yet?”

“What? That was fast! I’m still at the hospital. Something urgent cropped up, so I had to come at the last minute. Why don’t you take a taxi and meet me at the hospital? It is about 24 miles. You should be able to get here within an hour. Give me a call when you’re here.”

Ye Qianqian was a little disappointed, but she could understand that it was his overwhelming workload that made him unable to pick her up.

Grunting in acknowledgment, Ye Qianqian hung up the phone and made her way out of the airport.

She hailed a taxi and provided the driver with the address Shen Zhilie had furnished her. Before long, she arrived at the hospital.

It was another branch of Huxin Hospital.

Ye Qianqian didn’t call Shen Zhilie on his cell. Instead, she walked straight to the Psychiatric Department.

When she entered, the place was bustling with a flurry of activity. Everyone was very busy. No one seemed to notice her.

Dragging her suitcase behind her, Ye Qianqian walked up to the information desk and said to the nurse behind the counter, “Hello, I’m looking for Shen Zhilie.”

Lin Miaomiao was organizing medical reports when she looked up and saw Ye Qianqian’s face.

She immediately recognized that this was the lady whose face Shen Zhilie had on his phone as his screensaver.

Lin Miaomiao felt unsettled. Glaring at Ye Qianqian, she curtly said, “Dr. Shen is busy. If you’re looking for him, make an appointment.”

Her tone was extremely impatient and unpleasant.

Ye Qianqian never expected that someone working in the hospital would have such a horrible attitude. She said, “Um... I’m not here for medical attention. I’m his girlfriend.”

Lin Miaomiao deliberately looked down her nose at Ye Qianqian and gave her a once-over before saying, “That’s not very likely. I’ve never heard Dr. Shen mention that he has a girlfriend. Moreover, it’s impossible that Dr. Shen would settle for someone like you. There have been plenty of girls masquerading as Dr. Shen’s girlfriend. Why don’t you tell me where you met him?”

Ye Qianqian flared up. She couldn’t maintain her calm demeanor any further and dropped her ladylike act altogether. With a dark expression, she asked, “Why are you so rude? Is this truly the standard of this hospital’s information desk? How has no one lodged a complaint against you before?”

“Lodge a complaint against me?” Lin Miaomiao laughed sardonically. “Ma’am, I’ve already told you that if you are unwell, you’ll need to make an appointment. Stop pestering me.”
