Chapter 163: Chapter 163:

"Xiao Ye, I was just about to call you. We have a vacant position at our hospital now. When can you come and report for duty?"

"Mr. Fang, wasn’t I blacklisted by all hospitals because of offending the Fu Family?" Ye Yan believed that Vice Dean Fang must have known about this.

Vice Dean Fang felt a bit embarrassed. Back then, although he wanted to help, he was powerless and felt somewhat sorry for his student.

"The misunderstanding has been cleared up. There was never such an incident. Our hospital’s doors are always open for you."

"Was it Pei Ye who didn’t let your hospital hire me?"

"I don’t know if it was him, but his girlfriend, who is also the dean’s granddaughter, went directly to the dean. After that, some unfavorable news about you started to spread." Vice Dean Fang sighed, "I hope you can come to our hospital. It would be a way for me to make up for my inability to help at that time."

After hanging up, Ye Yan became even more certain that this matter was both related and unrelated to Fu Xingzhou.

It was not Fu Xingzhou who spread the rumors about her offending the Fu Family, but Pei Ye.

Probably because he wanted revenge against Meng Tian, he also couldn’t bear to see her succeed.

Moreover, since she left Holy Land Hospital without any reason, he only needed to follow the thread to create some seemingly undeniable evidence.

However, it was the sudden arrest of Pei Ye and Dean Zeng that was truly Fu Xingzhou’s doing.

To be able to pull down a hospital dean immediately, there were few in Ao City with such power.

So, had she been misunderstanding Fu Xingzhou all along?

Fu Xingzhou had not hindered her in finding new work or interfered with her life.

On the contrary, when Pei Ye was secretly causing her harm, he had severely taught him a lesson.

At the moment, Ye Yan’s heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Previously, her trust in Fu Xingzhou led to subsequent events.

Now, she didn’t trust him, yet reality told her it was all a misunderstanding.

Whether to trust or not, she just wanted her life to no longer involve him, and from now on, whether in glory or dishonor, it would be hers alone to bear.

In the evening, when Ye Yan received a call from Holy Land Hospital while she was tallying the day’s receipts with the store manager,

"Can I really come back?" Ye Yan could hardly believe her ears.

"Not only can you come back, but you can also return to your previous VIP floor. Just think of this time as if you’ve been on vacation."

Ye Yan looked at the phone number, "You’re not a scammer, right?"

Dean: ...

Does he really sound like a scammer?

With a light cough, the dean continued, "You can come and report for duty next week. Director Bi will contact you later about the specifics."

After hanging up, Ye Yan felt like she was dreaming.

"What happened?" The store manager waved her hand in front of her.

Ye Yan finally came back to her senses, smiling, "It’s my former hospital. They’ve notified me that I can start working next week."

"Is it that famous Holy Land Hospital?"

"Yes,"

The store manager looked relieved, "I knew it, someone as capable as you couldn’t be stuck in our little pharmacy forever. There’s a saying, something about a dragon and a beach."

"Dragon Trapped on the Shallow Shore?"

"That’s the one."

Ye Yan blushed at the compliment, not feeling deserving of being compared to such a metaphor, "If you need my help in the future, just give me a call."

Although it was a short time, the store manager had been very good to her.

Knowing she had a foot injury, he rarely assigned her night shifts and spared her from any dirty, tiring work.

"So if I need to see a doctor, can you help me out?"

Ye Yan laughed, "Sure, but I hope you won’t need to see me because of that."

Hospitals, no one likes them. If possible, you’d want to avoid them all your life.

"Then I’ll handle your resignation, and since you’re not yet a regular employee, it won’t be complicated."

"I’m still available these days since it’s not Monday yet."

The store manager expressed his gratitude, "Thank you so much, I will hire someone as soon as possible."

After they completed the accounting, the store manager suddenly clutched her stomach, "Ye Yan, do you have a sanitary pad? I think my period has come unexpectedly."

Ye Yan quickly took out a pad from her bag and handed it to the store manager.

"Thanks so much. It really is as unpredictable as my aunt’s visit."

The store manager went to the restroom.

Ye Yan put her bag away and calculated her menstrual cycle in her mind.

Her periods were usually on schedule, and she should get it these days, which was why she always carried a spare.

However, five days had passed, and there was still no sign of it.

Usually, she would have started to feel back pains by now.

As a doctor, she paid close attention to this matter.

Especially since a month and a half ago, she had been with Fu Xingzhou.

That time was intense,_OBJC she had let him be wild in hopes of making the medication’s effect more comprehensive.

There were no protective measures during the process, and later, she was attacked by a wild boar and ended up in the hospital.

Taking advantage of the store manager’s absence, Ye Yan took a pregnancy test kit from the shelf.

After paying for it, she put it in her backpack.

After work, Ye Yan received a message from Chai Chen.

As she stepped out, she saw his car parked not far away, with him standing by the car, looking down at his phone.

"That’s your boyfriend, right? He’s picked you up several times," the store manager nudged Ye Yan’s arm meaningfully, "Nice young man, good-looking and neat. What does he do?"

Ye Yan was about to deny it but then decided not to argue.

Even if she explained, she guessed the manager wouldn’t believe her.

"Doctor."

"A colleague of yours? That’s good, you have things in common." The manager chuckled, "Go on, don’t keep him waiting."

Before Ye Yan had even crossed the street, Chai Chen waved at her and put down his phone.

Knowing that Ye Yan loved spicy food, Chai Chen chose a hot pot restaurant.

"Lucky I made a reservation, this place really is popular."

The restaurant Chai Chen chose was the same one where Ye Yan and Fu Xingzhou had eaten together.

There were still people selling glowing balloons at the entrance, but not the same uncle as last time.

The balloon seller’s business was slow, many people were passing by and waiting for seats, but no one was buying balloons.

Ye Yan thought back to the day when Fu Xingzhou bought a balloon. The image of that impressive, clear-skied man seemed out of place with the childish balloons, yet oddly fitting.

Suddenly, a car stopped at the roadside, and a tall man got out.

Her heart inexplicably sped up.

However, the man’s face was unfamiliar. He bought a balloon from the aunt and handed it to a little girl in the car.

The little girl joyfully hugged his neck and kissed him, and the car quickly drove away.

"Ye Yan, what are you looking at?"

Chai Chen followed her gaze but didn’t notice anything unusual.

"Do you like balloons? Wait, I’ll go buy one."

"No need," Ye Yan quickly pulled him back, "That’s something kids like, I don’t."

When she got home that evening, Ye Yan took out her phone from her bag and also brought out the box of pregnancy tests.
