Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Mu Anan stared at the anxious expression on Dr. Gu’s face, Seventh Master had already noticed something strange through the phone.
“Kid, what happened?” Seventh Master’s tone turned colder.
Mu Anan stared at Dr. Gu and replied to Seventh Master, “Seventh Master, I don’t know either. I only saw Dr. Gu finding me. I’ll ask him, wait a moment.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Anan gave Dr. Gu a look.
Dr. Gu understood what she meant, “Miss Anan, you asked me yesterday if you were suitable to be a doctor. 1 think 1 found the answer.”
Dr. Gu said sincerely.
Mu Anan gave him a silent thumbs-up and walked to the French windows.
She said to Seventh Master on the phone,” After I returned yesterday, I wanted to talk to Dr. Gu about my internship.”
“Ok.” Seventh Master replied. He didn’t doubt that.
He also didn’t ask further.
Mu Anan had chatted with Seventh Master before.
She wanted to give herself an answer about whether she wanted to continue interning at the mental hospital.
Seventh Master had promised not to ask.
At that moment, he did not ask.
In fact, Seventh Master had no time to ask.
On the other end of the phone, someone called out to Seventh Master.
For the next three minutes, Seventh Master was talking to someone else.
Mu Anan did not understand Zong Zhengyu’s work, but she liked hearing his voice.
It was a typical subwoofer. When he was in a business discussion, his voice was deeper.
If she were obedient, the Seventh Master’s voice would be lower and huskier, which would be very sexy.
“Anan, I still have something to do here.” The Seventh Master said again.
Mu Anan hummed in acknowledgment and asked reluctantly, “When are you coming back?”
“Two days later.”
Mu Anan’s eyes lit up, “Really?”
She thought Zong Zhengyu would only return in ten days to half a month.
“Yes,” Zong Zhengyu replied, “Be good, understand?”
“Alright!”
Mu Anan replied happily, “Seventh Master, you can go ahead with your work.
I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Mu Anan’s emotions were rippling when she thought about how she would be able to see Seventh Master in two days.
Very happy.
“Ok.”
Zong Zhengyu hung up after a simple reply.
Mu Anan held her phone tightly.
The excited expression on her face disappeared when she turned around and saw Dr. Gu leaning against the back of the sofa with a solemn expression.
She threw her phone on the bed and walked towards Dr. Gu, “What happened?”
Dr. Gu looked up at Mu Anan and did not say anything immediately. Instead, he handed the phone in his hand to Mu Anan.
The phone screen was lit.
There was a photo on the screen.
It was a photo of a woman.
The woman was about the same age as Mu Anan. She wore a white dress, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. Even though the photo only showed her side profile, it was not difficult to see that that woman was a beauty from her pretty nose and slender neck.
When Mu Anan saw the woman’s photo, her mind was shocked, and her expression froze.
She raised her head and stared at Dr. Gu. Her lips moved a few times before finally saying a name, “Zhong Ting?”
Dr. Gu nodded, “Yes, this is Zhong Ting!”
“This doesn’t seem like a scene overseas.” Mu Anan said as she looked at the photo again.
There was a wooden door in front of Zhong Ting, and wind chimes hung on the door.
It looked like the entrance to a cafe.
Mu Anan found that door familiar.
“A recent photo?” Mu Anan asked again.
“This was sent to me by a student I sent to Liuli City to treat the Old Master.”
“What do you mean?”
“My student went to the cafe this morning to meet a senior to get some information. He saw Zhong Ting at the cafe, so he took a photo. He knows that Seventh Master is looking for this woman.”
After speaking, Dr. Gu added, “This student is a little timid. He’ll usually come to me if there’s anything, so he sent me the photo first and asked me to give it to Seventh Master.”
Mu Anan’s expression became even more solemn after hearing Dr. Gu’s explanation of the source of the photo.
She did not immediately respond to Dr. Gu.
Instead, she stared at Zhong Ting’s photo on the phone again.
After nearly a minute, she asked, “Is the opposite of this cafe the TAG Private Club?”
“You know about it?” Dr. Gu was a little surprised.
Mu Anan said, “The day before 1 returned to Jianglan City, I saw a back view in this cafe. It looked very much like Zhong Ting’s.”
Mu Anan had been very surprised at that time. She had been staring at the back view of that person and wanted to check it out.
However, she was knocked down repeatedly because she did not pay attention when she walked.
Mu Anan returned to her senses and felt it couldn’t be Zhong Ting.
Zhong Ting should be in Xing Yun Kingdom, not Liuli City.
She felt that it was not logical, so she did not continue to ponder over that matter.
But when Dr. Gu suddenly brought that photo over, it was like a severe blow to Mu Anan.
“Is the person 1 met really Zhong Ting?” Mu Anan stared at Dr. Gu, “Did I overlook it?”
“Maybe it’s just a coincidence?” Dr. Gu thought for a moment and said.
“What do you mean?”
“The person you met at the cafe that day was the same person as in the photo, but it was not Zhong Ting.” Dr. Gu expressed his speculations and concerns, “What you saw was only a back view, and this photo is only a side view. We’re unfamiliar with Zhong Ting, so there’s a possibility of a mistake.”
Mu Anan shook her head, “Although that’s our analysis, most coincidences in this world are not without reason.”
It would take someone who was very familiar with the person to be able to recognize the person from the back and side profile.
And Auntie Zhong, who was familiar with Zhong Ting, had already been sent away by Mu Anan.
Mu Anan stared at Zhong Ting’s side profile in the photo and remained silent.
She slowly moved her feet, walked to the back of the sofa, and leaned against it.
Mu Anan hugged her stomach with one hand and spun her phone with the other. She was obviously thinking about that matter.
“We will not be able to guess anything even if we guess like that.” Mu Anan said after a while.
Dr. Gu glanced at Mu Anan.
Mu Anan looked up and met the eyes of Dr. Gu. She asked, “Can you help me?”
Although it was a simple question, Dr. Gu could understand the unspoken content behind her question.
Dr. Gu did not give an immediate response.
Mu Anan waited patiently for about two minutes, but Dr. Gu still did not respond.
Mu Anan already had an answer in her heart.
She sighed, stood up, and returned the phone to Dr. Gu.
Mu Anan said, “Send me the photo. I’ll find someone else to help.”
“Miss Anan?” Dr. Gu did not take the phone. His gentle face was apologetic.
Mu Anan said frankly, “We are on good terms, but that doesn’t mean you have to help me. Moreover…”
Mu Anan paused momentarily, “1 know that the incident ten years ago affected you and the Seventh Master. You’re unwilling to go back even when the Old Master is seriously ill, which means you don’t want to have anything to do with Liuli City.”
Mu Anan patted Dr. Gu’s arm to express her understanding.
Dr. Gu looked apologetic.
He opened his mouth several times, but nothing came out.
Mu Anan looked at Dr. Gu’s troubled face and suddenly laughed.
Dr.. Gu frowned, “Miss Anan, what are you laughing at?”
