The two panicked and hastily denied Song Ning’s words. “No, no, we didn’t talk about that at all…”
Song Ning smiled. “We’re both girls, and we like listening to gossip as well. We really want to know what’s the relationship between the celebrities you spoke about; why do they look so similar. Why don’t you tell us? There’s no one here anyway.”
There were not many people on the VIP floor anyway. There was usually more medical staff than patients and their families. This was the reason the nurse and the cleaner had been boldly gossiping in the pantry. After all, the chances of someone overhearing them were slim to none. Alas, who knew Song Ning would overhear them?
Jiahui knew Song Ning wanted to know what the duo was talking about. Considering she wanted to go downstairs as quickly as possible, when she saw the duo hesitating, she said threateningly, “Hurry up and say it. If you don’t, I’ll speak to the person in charge of the VIP ward and ask him to transfer both of you to another floor…”
This threat was rather serious. After all, it took a lot of effort to get assigned to the VIP floor. Those with outstanding abilities and good work ethics were all assigned here. After all, they were going to serve VIP patients. Needless to say, the pay was higher as well. Since the quality of service was paramount, the management of the hospital was very strict regarding the staff’s conduct; there was zero tolerance for complaints.
Upon hearing these words, the duo began to panic.
Finally, the young nurse said, “It’s really nothing. We were just talking about two famous celebrities…”
Song Ning asked patiently, “So what’s the reason you think Ning Xia and Little Ning Xiao look so alike?”
Jiahui had no idea this was what Song Ning was interested in. She was not around earlier, after all.
The cleaner seemed like she was trying to wash her hands of this matter as she hastily said, “She told me that Little Ning Xia is Ning Xia’s half-sister. Apparently, she heard this from her cousin. Her cousin is a doctor in the Hematology Department that does DNA tests.”
Song Ning and Jia Hui froze immediately.
The young nurse said anxiously, “It’s true, it’s true. I’m not lying. The result of the DNA test shows that Little Ning Xia and Mr. Ning are father and daughter. Doesn’t that mean Ning Xia and Little Ning Xia are half-sisters then?”
When Song Ning regained her senses, she said with a weak smile on her face, “Oh, this gossip is really explosive. Alright, both of you can return to your duties.”
After the duo hurried away as though they had been granted amnesty, Song Ning sat in a daze.
Upon seeing this, Jiahui hurried crouched in front of Song Ning to check if Song Ning was okay.
When Jiahui was about to speak, Song Ning suddenly said, “Jiahui, let’s go downstairs. I want to bask in the sun.”
Jiahui could sense a hint of agitation in Song Ning’s voice. She did not know what to say so she could only nod and say, “Alright.”
Jiahui was anxious when she saw Song Ning’s reaction, but she could not show it on her face. She brought Song Ning downstairs and found a sunny spot before she locked the wheelchair. Then, she crouched in front of Song Ning. When she saw Song Ning’s face was slightly pale, she hurriedly reached out to check Song Ning’s pulse as she said in an attempt to comfort Song Ning, “Song Ning, don’t be angry. You can’t get angry, okay? Think about the baby. You’re going to be a mother soon. Understand?”
Song Ning allowed Jiahui to check her pulse as she tried to calm herself down.
Meanwhile, Jiahui sighed in relief when she discovered there was no abnormality with Song Ning’s pulse. She held Song Ning’s icy hands to warm them up as she said gently, “Song Ning, if you feel unhappy, it’s fine to cry, okay? Don’t suppress your emotions, understand? This has nothing to do with you so you shouldn’t let it affect you, alright?”
Song Ning trembled a little. It took her a long time to calm down, and when she did, she murmured, “That’s right. It has nothing to do with me. What does it have to do with me?”
Jiahui nodded vigorously. “That’s right, Ningning. It has nothing to do with you. You’ve left that family for so many years anyway. Whether he betrayed your mother once or twice, the ending is still the same. Don’t bother with that family anymore, okay? Ningning?”
When Song Ning’s eyes finally focused on Jiahui who was clearly concerned, she nodded gently. “Jiahui, I feel like crying. I want to cry for my mother…”
Jiahui rose to her feet and leaned forward to hug Song Ning as she said, “Alright. Cry if you want to…”
