Reborn with the ability to read minds, I became a heartthrob.

Zhou Liwan and Jiang Shiyue had already discovered that Luo Guangshan's case might be intricately related to Xu Zhichao that day.

However, because the story about Lu Xun was too absurd and unsubstantiated, it could not be used as a direction for investigation.

So, in the past two days, Jiang Shiyue and Zhou Liwan secretly visited Xu Zhichao's private doctor based on this lead, hoping to get something out of him.

The sky was overcast that day, with a strong wind whipping up dark clouds and fallen leaves flying everywhere.

The entire city was desolate.

Zhou Liwan wrapped her coat tighter and sat in Jiang Shiyue's passenger seat, her breath steaming in the cold air. "In my memory, this Dr. Li has always been Xu Zhichao's private doctor, so he must know something. It's just that I haven't had much contact with him, so it will be a bit difficult to find out anything from him."

Jiang Shiyue reminded her to fasten her seatbelt, then smiled, shifted gears, and started the car: "You don't need to worry about that, leave it to me. But how did you get his address?"

Zhou Liwan immediately seemed a little guilty, changing the subject and her eyes began to flicker: "I just asked like that, oh, please don't ask anymore."

Jiang Shiyue sensed something was wrong and kept asking, "Something's not right. Did you say something nonsense?"

Just then, a red light came on, and after the car stopped, Jiang Shiyue turned Zhou Liwan around and scanned her from head to toe.

Zhou Liwan's eyes became increasingly unfocused, and her cheeks were indeed flushed red, as if they could bleed.

After a long pause, Zhou Liwan murmured softly, "I told you you weren't good enough, and I was afraid you'd lose face if I saw another doctor, so I chose Dr. Li to preserve your manhood..."

Jiang Shiyue laughed angrily, gritted his teeth, started the car, and continued driving: "What about being a man?"

Zhou Liwan pressed herself tightly against the door, afraid that Jiang Shiyue might slap her to death in a fit of anger: "A man's dignity!"

Jiang Shiyue was so angry that her eyes were seeing stars: "You really are... You've ruined my dignity!"

If word gets out, those rascals underground will laugh themselves to death.

Zhou Liwan raised her hand and swore, "I promise I will never go out and talk nonsense. We are just investigating a case. And even if it accidentally gets out, I will definitely explain for you."

Jiang Shiyue remained cold: "How are you going to explain this to me? Have you seen it all or what?"

As soon as Jiang Shiyue finished speaking, he regretted it, and the atmosphere in the car suddenly became a little awkward.

He glanced at Zhou Liwan somewhat embarrassedly, and Zhou Liwan was also awkwardly unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.

In this eerie atmosphere, the two finally arrived at Dr. Li's residence.

It was only a ten-minute walk, but it felt like an eternity to them.

After getting out of the car, the two politely waited for each other at the door for a long time until Dr. Li saw them through the security camera at the door and opened the door directly.

The two immediately recovered from their awkwardness, naturally clasped their hands together, and greeted Dr. Li with smiles.

Knowing Zhou Liwan's identity, Dr. Li was very polite. After arranging for them to sit down in the living room, he poured them two cups of black tea.

Zhou Liwan picked up her teacup, took a careful sip, and was instantly filled with the aroma of tea and a warm feeling, which made her squint her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Dr. Li couldn't help but laugh and said, "You look exactly like your mother."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to realize that he might have said something wrong and immediately fell silent.

Zhou Liwan's eyes slowly lowered, and she seemed to be in a very low mood.

Jiang Shiyue patted the back of her hand reassuringly, carefully comforting her.

Zhou Liwan smiled and met his gaze, indicating that she was fine and that the case was the most important thing.

Jiang Shiyue steeled himself and turned to look at Dr. Li, having mentally prepared himself for a long time: "Dr. Li, you know my situation, so please keep it a secret for us."

Dr. Li looked Jiang Shiyue up and down and said, "Young man, you look very strong. You don't seem to have kidney deficiency and erectile dysfunction."

Jiang Shiyue froze instantly. He slowly turned his head and looked at Zhou Liwan with a deep gaze. The other party shrank back like a quail, not daring to look at him at all.

Jiang Shiyue could only swallow his bitterness and grit his teeth as he replied to Dr. Li with a wry smile, "Well, I don't know why, it just suddenly turned out like this."

Dr. Li nodded slowly, but was still a little embarrassed: "Actually, I suggest you see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor and take good care of your health. There are still quite a lot of barriers between different departments in Western medicine."

Jiang Shiyue's face was dark brown: "I just thought it would be more private to come here, since it's not exactly something to be proud of."

Dr. Li nodded knowingly, while praising Jiang Shiyue: "Actually, it's very good that you don't shy away from seeking medical help, but coming to me might not be very effective. I need to tell you that beforehand."

Jiang Shiyue nodded reluctantly: "I understand, because Wanwan told me that you have been treating Grandpa Xu, and I thought you must have a wide network of contacts and information in the medical field."

Dr. Li stood up proudly and slowly walked to her window: "That's natural, so don't worry. I'll keep an eye out for you. If a good doctor comes along, I'll contact you as soon as possible. How about I give you a simple check-up today?"

Jiang Shiyue hurriedly waved his hand, "It's already too much trouble for you to help me contact a professional doctor, I won't trouble you any further today."

Dr. Li didn't press the matter. Jiang Shiyue casually asked, as if chatting about everyday things, "How long have you been working for Grandpa Xu? Besides being a family doctor, do you have any other jobs?"

Dr. Li was surprised, not expecting Jiang Shiyue to suddenly ask such a question: "We family doctors can only treat that family."

Meeting Dr. Li's suspicious and scrutinizing gaze, Jiang Shiyue quickly replied, "We've never had any contact with a family doctor before. It seems you're earning just as much as doctors in big hospitals."

Zhou Liwan understood that Jiang Shiyue was about to get down to business, and chimed in, "Why are you asking these questions? Asking about someone's salary is very impolite."

Jiang Shiyue looked completely innocent: "I was just curious, what's wrong with that? How much do we police officers make in a month? Can't I even see for myself!"

Zhou Liwan seemed to think he was embarrassing: "Come on, you don't rely on that little bit of salary. Don't say it out loud and make Dr. Li laugh at you. If you don't have any other questions, let's hurry back and not disturb Dr. Li's rest."

Dr. Li's slight doubts from earlier were dispelled by the two's coordinated back-and-forth, and he quickly smiled and said, "No disturbance, no disturbance. It's been a long time since I've had young people like you here."

Jiang Shiyue picked up his teacup and took a sip: "So you basically spend all your time around Grandpa Xu."

Dr. Li nodded: "We've been together for most of our lives. We're old friends."

Zhou Liwan casually replied, "I really appreciate it. I often heard Grandpa coughing badly when he was at home. He's had tuberculosis for a long time, hasn't he? Why hasn't it been cured yet?"
