After Rebirth, the Miracle Doctor Wife Is No Longer Humble!

Chapter 31: Inquire

"I have something to ask you," Min Nan said calmly.

"Alright, I also have something to tell you. Just wait for me a moment." Dai Wei put on his shoes and walked to the police station's courtyard. He washed his face with the cold water from the well before returning to the office. "Who wants to go first, you or me?"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Min Nan replied, "I'll go first."

After a two-second pause, Min Nan asked, "Did Ye Ling come to you yesterday?"

Dai Wei's eyes widened, "How did you know? That's exactly what I wanted to talk to you about!"

Min Nan carefully observed Dai Wei's expression and quickly made a judgment. Since Dai Wei had something to say, it indicated that Ye Ling's visit to him had a valid reason and wasn't related to any progress in their relationship.

In an instant, Min Nan felt a cool breeze blowing into his chest, dispersing some of the negative emotions that had been bothering him.

"Alright, you go ahead," Min Nan leaned back against the chair and her tone became slightly more relaxed.

Dai Wei recounted what happened to Ye Ling yesterday from beginning to end. Then he sighed and said, "I mean, who could be plotting against Ye Ling? That woman, Du Juan, is suspicious!"

As Min Nan listened to Dai Wei's account, his eyebrows furrowed at times. When he heard Dai Wei's conclusion, he nodded in agreement, expressing his concurrence.

However, Min Nan didn't want to dwell on this matter for the time being. He planned to personally investigate the woman named Du Juan again. At the moment, he was more concerned about another issue.

Dai Wei noticed Min Nan's dark and profound gaze once again fixed upon him, and he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

Why was Min Nan looking at him like that? Did he say something wrong? It didn't seem like it.

Dai Wei's mind raced, and he suddenly realized a serious problem. He hurriedly explained, "Hey, I have no idea why Ye Ling came to me first. I'm also wondering about it. Did you two quarrel? Otherwise, why wouldn't she ask you for help?"

Min Nan's eyebrows furrowed again. A quarrel? How could he have quarreled with her?

The two men locked eyes, and silence filled the air.

After a moment of hesitation, Dai Wei asked tentatively, "So, how far have things progressed between you two?"

Min Nan fell silent for a moment before replying, "There hasn't been any progress."

"No progress?" Dai Wei's expression turned into one of frustration. "You've wasted such a good opportunity! It has been so many days, and I've put in so much effort to create favorable conditions for you. The publicity department's dormitory at the production team is just a 20-minute walk from your place. And yet, you're telling me that there's been no progress between you and her?"

As Min Nan looked at Dai Wei's disappointed expression, he found himself at a loss for words. Dai Wei had taken the liberty to bring Ye Ling to Willow Village, and Min Nan had yet to settle that score with him.

However, at this moment, Min Nan decided not to argue with Dai Wei about this matter.

"But..." Min Nan suddenly thought of something, "My godmother and Wan Hai have all misunderstood the relationship between Ye Ling and me. Could it be that she asked for your help because of this?"

After contemplating for a moment, Dai Wei nodded. "Although you're inefficient in relationships, you're not stupid. I think that's the reason! You haven't even expressed your feelings to Ye Ling. She is unsure about your intentions and probably doesn't want to further complicate the situation or make you think that she is presumptuous. That's why she hesitated to ask for your help."

After Dai Wei finished his analysis, he sighed. "Now, when she faces a problem, her first thought is to come to me."

After speaking, Dai Wei noticed Min Nan's dangerous gaze and quickly defended himself, "What I meant was, in the future, you should take the initiative so that the young girl doesn't think you have no feelings for her."

"I never had any feelings for her," Min Nan corrected Dai Wei, feeling that his statement was somewhat inappropriate.

Dai Wei widened his eyes and stared at Min Nan. "Really? Don't lie to me. Why did you come and ask me about what happened to her yesterday? Come on, Min Nan, there's no need to be embarrassed about it!"

Min Nan fell silent and glanced at Dai Wei, signaling that he didn't want to discuss it any further.

Just as Min Nan was about to leave, a police officer on duty entered and informed them, "Old Dai, there's a young girl looking for you. She's quite beautiful. Is something going on?"

The police officer on duty smiled with a hint of mischief.

Dai Wei instantly knew that it was Ye Ling who had come to find him. With Min Nan right beside him, Dai Wei's heart nearly stopped, and he quickly glared at the police officer, saying, "What nonsense are you spouting? She's my relative!"

"Relative? When did you have such a beautiful relative?" the officer muttered to himself. "Alright, I'll let her in."
