Chapter 468: Chapter 468: What’s Wrong with This Girl?_2

At that moment, her heart had essentially come to believe that she might have been wrong before, but the one thorn that persisted in her heart was Qian Fuchen’s illness. This was the strong evidence she had always held onto to regard Xiao Yi as a great fraud. Although her grandfather had repeatedly explained to her the reason Xiao Yi had not come the first time, she still believed that it was because Xiao Yi was incompetent, hence he deliberately made excuses to shirk his responsibilities, and even the second time, she thought it was just another excuse by Xiao Yi...

But now... with this one sentence from Qian Fuchen, that final thorn was directly removed!

Xiao Yi really was a Divine Doctor, he wasn’t making excuses, and now he had saved Qian Fuchen!

In her heart, this sentence echoed incessantly, her hands involuntarily clenched, and a hard-to-describe joy appeared on her face.

Wait... Xiao Yi, he... saved Uncle Qian?

How could he possibly have really saved Uncle Qian?

Eventually, her heart slightly calmed down, and she remembered a dreadful reality, her face involuntarily showing an extremely shocked expression as she looked at Xiao Yi. Mr. Qian’s illness had always been treated by her grandfather, and it was because of this that she had gotten to know him, becoming familiar. She was very clear about how difficult the illness was...

Her grandfather had been completely helpless, but now... Xiao Yi had actually cured it?

Could it be that Xiao Yi, so young, had already surpassed her grandfather in medicine?

"Miss An, what’s wrong?"

Feeling the strange expression on An Lili’s face, Xiao Yi couldn’t help but ask again, as he always felt there was something very odd about An Lili today, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.

"Ah... it’s nothing..."

Hearing Xiao Yi’s words, An Lili suddenly snapped back to reality, realizing her own lapse and involuntarily showing a hint of blush on her face. It took a while before she somewhat recovered and, feeling somewhat apologetic, she looked at Xiao Yi and said, "I’m sorry, Xiao Yi, I just remembered something and lost my composure."

"Oh, no worries, Miss An, please go ahead and order first, this young lady has been waiting for a while, hehe."

Although Xiao Yi sensed that An Lili was definitely acting strange today, since she hadn’t said anything, he didn’t want to probe further. After all, he and An Lili were not very familiar, he just said with a slight smile on his face.

"Oh, okay."

An Lili hurriedly picked up the menu somewhat embarrassedly and began to order.

An Lili wasn’t dining here for the first time and was obviously familiar with the menu. Soon, she had already ordered several dishes and even introduced them to Xiao Yi.

It must be said, An Lili really had a unique eye when it came to introducing eateries. She said the dishes here were quite well made. Initially, Xiao Yi felt she might be exaggerating, but when the dishes arrived, he couldn’t help but show a look of approval in his eyes, even he, a person with high standards for cuisine, had to admit that the food was indeed very well prepared.

The only downside was that during the enjoyable meal, An Lili seemed quite curious about him, constantly asking him questions, which made him feel quite awkward.

However, he didn’t think much of it, assuming she was just curious about his medical skills he had displayed. He basically repeated the kind of talk he usually had with Xiaoxiao and the others to her.

When dinner was over, Xiao Yi was prepared to pay the bill himself, but An Lili was quicker and insisted on buying it herself, leaving him no choice but to put his wallet back reluctantly.

"Miss An, I really want to thank you for the treat today."

As they stepped out of the restaurant, Xiao Yi checked the time and, feeling it was getting late, he prepared to take his leave.

"Xiao Yi, you’re really too polite. It was just a meal, and if anything, I should be thanking you. For an expert like you to dine with a little nurse like me."

An Lili’s face showed a mischievous expression as she winked at Xiao Yi, "By the way, Xiao Yi, could you not be so formal? Always calling me ’Miss An’ sounds so awkward. Just call me Lili or Anan."

"Uh, this..."

Xiao Yi’s face involuntarily showed an embarrassed and hesitant expression. He always felt that either Anan or Lili seemed a bit too intimate; he and An Lili hadn’t reached that level of closeness.

"My friends all call me that, you saying ’Miss An’ all the time really sounds too awkward. Otherwise, I’ll have to keep calling you Expert Xiao."

An Lili blinked.

"Well... okay..."

Xiao Yi nodded helplessly but still couldn’t quite bring himself to call her by those names. Just then, seeing a taxi approaching, he casually said to An Lili, "Then... An... Lili, it’s getting late, I should head back."

"You’re leaving so soon?"

When An Lili heard Xiao Yi was about to leave, her face instantly showed a hint of disappointment.

"Yes, it’s getting late, and I may still have some things to take care of. That being said, Lili, no worries, I will still be visiting the hospital and can see you again. Next time, let me treat you to a meal."
