It seems she's not entirely indifferent to him.
"It's alright, the child is fine now, we can take the child for a check-up when we have time."
Xia Ran nodded, then suddenly remembered something else.
"By the way, I'm thinking of sending my child to kindergarten. Do you think my child is ready for kindergarten in his current state?"
He Xiu: "It's okay, don't be afraid, you can go, as long as the child is willing."
"That's good. He's going, and he's willing to go." Xia Ran breathed a sigh of relief. "I was quite afraid to say no, since I was a little worried about his current situation."
He Xiu: "I'm not afraid."
"How is the old man? Is he feeling any better?"
Xia Ran: "It's alright now. Grandpa is feeling a bit better. I'll take the child to your place for a check-up tomorrow. Do you have time tomorrow?"
He Xiu: "Yes."
After speaking, He Xiu looked at Lin Ziming, who had been sitting next to him, and raised an eyebrow. Was this Dr. Lin being a little too enthusiastic?
Although Dr. Lin, who had returned from abroad, possessed superb medical skills and often wore a smile, he remained quite distant from others.
I never expected them to be so enthusiastic towards Xia Ran and Grandpa Xia.
He really wouldn't believe there wasn't something fishy going on.
As for who this trick was about, he wasn't sure.
However, the old man and Xia Ran's shady dealings are probably more related to Xia Ran.
Tsk tsk tsk, so Gu Zheng has unwittingly gained another rival in love.
"Well... I'm leaving now. I'll come see you again tomorrow. Dr. Lin, would you like to come along?"
He Xiu looked at Lin Ziming, who chuckled and shook his head, saying...
"I'm not leaving yet. Dr. He, you should go first. I still have some things to discuss with Xia Ran and the others."
Hearing this, He Xiu narrowed his eyes. Xia Ran? They've only known each other for a few days, how come they've become so intimate?
"Dr. Lin, did you know Xia Ran before? It feels like you've known each other for a long time."
He Xiu asked casually.
Lin Ziming: "No, we met through these geniuses."
“Yes.” Xia Ran nodded. “I met these geniuses recently. Why? Is there any connection?”
He Xiu glanced at the two of them, his eyes meeting Lin Ziming's.
Well, he had met Lin Ziming several times in the hospital, but he had never seen Lin Ziming look like that before.
Lin Ziming's eyes used to be friendly but with a hint of estrangement.
But the look in his eyes now carried a hint of warning.
Although Lin Ziming didn't say anything, He Xiu still saw a warning in Lin Ziming's eyes.
He thought for a moment, and finally just nodded slightly.
"Then I'll be going now."
Xia Ran: "Okay, take care."
Although Dazhuang kept his head down and munched on the apple, his ears were actually perked up the whole time.
He didn't mean to eavesdrop, but the ward was so small that it was hard for him not to hear.
He Xiu glanced at Da Zhuang, who was sitting with his back to him, a smile playing on his lips, and then went out.
When he heard the door close, Dazhuang paused for a moment while eating his apple, but then resumed eating it as if nothing had happened.
After He Xiu left, Xia Ran seemed to realize something.
Didn't Dazhuang say that Hexiu likes Dazhuang? Why hasn't he said a single word to Dazhuang since he came in?
However, he remembered that the two of them seemed to have come in one after the other.
Perhaps Xia Ran's gaze was too intense, because Da Zhuang looked up and met her eyes.
However, after meeting Xia Ran's gaze, he silently looked away, feeling inexplicably guilty.
Xia Ran seemed to understand something, but because Lin Ziming was there, he still didn't say anything.
Lin Ziming waited until the scene he had sent arrived before leaving.
However, when he left, he called Xia Ran along, saying that he had something to say to her.
Xia Ran thought Lin Ziming had something to tell him about his grandfather's illness, so she gave Dazhuang a look and told him to take the child to the ward to keep his grandfather company.
As Xia Ran stepped out of the ward, she didn't see Gu Zheng, but she did see the table.
His expression paused for a moment, then he casually looked away.
Lin Ziming took in Xia Ran's emotions.
"Dr. Lin, is there something you need from me? Is there something wrong with my grandfather?"
Hearing this, Lin Ziming was both amused and exasperated, and said,
"Why do you always assume that something is wrong with Grandpa whenever I say I have something to tell you? Let me assure you again, Grandpa's health is recovering very well, and there are no other problems."
"I asked you to come out today because there's something I want to talk to you about. Shall we go outside and talk?"
Xia Ran was taken aback when she heard that it was about her, but she quickly nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's talk outside."
The two arrived at the side where the elevator came up, where there was a designated area, essentially a smoking area.
There was no one else around at this time, making it a perfect time for them to talk.
Lin Ziming didn't keep Xia Ran hanging; instead, he took out his phone and showed her a webpage.
"Take a look."
"Huh?" Xia Ran was a little confused, not understanding why Lin Ziming suddenly gave him a phone to look at.
"There's something up there about you. Take a look."
Xia Ran was still confused, but seeing Lin Ziming's serious expression, he took the phone.
When Xia Ran saw what was on the phone screen, her face showed shock and disbelief.
"What... what is this?" Xia Ran looked up at Lin Ziming.
Lin Ziming: "It's exactly as you see it."
Xia Ran moved his lips. He understood what was being said on the phone, but what he didn't understand was why someone had filmed him and posted it online.
And this post seems to be quite popular.
Xia Ran directly voiced her doubts.
"I just came here for a medical checkup. I'm not some famous internet celebrity. Why are they paying so much attention to me? And why is it about being kept by a sugar daddy?"
The words "kept woman" stung Xia Ran's eyes deeply.
These two words undoubtedly represent the feelings Gu En had when she told him he was a mistress.
Lin Ziming: "You may not be a celebrity or internet celebrity, but Gu Zheng's popularity is no less than that of celebrities and internet celebrities."
Chapter 295 Solve it yourself
Xia Ran was taken aback, then realized Gu Zheng's identity and was speechless for a moment.
"I just happened to see this, so I thought I'd bring it over to show you. It's about you and Gu Zheng..."
“I… I’ll just let it be.” Xia Ran felt a little tired. “I can’t control what’s being posted here. I don’t know who posted these things, and there’s no way to find them.”
"But if we let things escalate like this, everything about your life will be dug up, and even your friends and the old man might be affected."
Lin Ziming considered things more thoroughly than Xia Ran and brought up the important points, making Xia Ran understand that this was not something that could be solved by ignoring it.
Xia Ran gripped her phone tightly, took a deep breath, and handed it back to Lin Ziming.
"Lin Ziming, thank you for telling me about this. I will take care of it."
Lin Ziming took the phone. "How about I help you resolve this? I have some friends in this field. I can have them release a statement to clarify the matter."
"No need." Xia Ran refused directly. "Dr. Lin, I can handle this myself. It wouldn't be good if I caused trouble."
Xia Ran has never liked to trouble others. This matter only concerns him and Gu Zheng. He has only just met Dr. Lin and the others, so how could he possibly trouble them?
Lin Ziming wanted to say something more, but in the end he said nothing, simply nodded, and said...
"Okay, I'll be going now. If you want to find me later, just give me a call."
Lin Ziming also saw through Xia Ran's intentions, and he would have someone quietly resolve the matter.
They are indeed not familiar with each other, and Xia Ran cannot rashly accept his kindness.
After Lin Ziming left, Xia Ran stood there in a daze. He looked up into the distance and saw that it was night and lights were on in the distance.
Xia Ran felt extremely tired.
Why can't this matter between him and Gu Zheng be resolved after so long?
I used to think that liking someone and having a crush on someone was hard enough, but I never thought that it would be so difficult to sever ties with Gu Zheng now.
"Xia Ran, Xia Ran, how long are you going to keep reaping the consequences of your own actions?"
Xia Ran took a deep breath and turned to walk towards the ward.
The most important thing now is for him to properly resolve this issue online.
When Dazhuang saw Xia Ran come in, he immediately asked curiously what had happened.
Grandpa Xia's gaze also fell on Xia Ran, and he asked,
"Xiao Ran, is something wrong? Why did Dr. Lin ask you to go out?"
Xia Ran smiled and said,
"It's nothing. He just said that he's all alone in China now, with no relatives and very few friends. Plus, you look a lot like his grandfather, so he wanted to come and establish a connection with us so we can keep in touch."
