The previous day, Lu Xian had expended energy performing a major surgery and stayed up late at night, so this sleep lasted until noon the next day—although early in the morning, he got up to use the bathroom and, out of a sense of responsibility as a doctor, went to the operating room to check on Nie Jiuluo. His conclusion was that she was doing well and had basically passed the critical period.

He remembered that at that time, Yan Tuo even smiled at him.When he woke up again, it was already noon, and the sunlight was good.

Lu Xian yawned, just as he opened the bedroom door and was greeted by the scent of instant noodles.

Yan Tuo sat at the dining table, eating noodles heartily, and gestured towards the kitchen, "Saved you a portion, hurry up, or it'll clump together."

Lu Xian responded enthusiastically. Out of duty, before going to the bathroom, he glanced at the operating room.

His expression turned pale with shock, and he rushed in, then hurriedly ran out and searched around the house in a panic.

Yan Tuo didn't even look up, calmly eating his noodles.

After searching the entire house, Lu Xian returned to the dining table and shouted at him, "Where is she?"

Yan Tuo swallowed the last bite of noodles and took a sip of soup, then gestured towards the kitchen. "Who?"

"What do you mean? That woman."

Yan Tuo wiped his mouth with a tissue. "Which woman?"

"The one you brought back in a box, the woman who was on night duty last night."

Yan Tuo balled up the tissue and threw it into the trash can, bypassed Lu Xian, and went to the bathroom to rinse his mouth with water. In a muffled voice, he said, "Are you dreaming?"

Damn it...Lu Xian pushed open the door to Yan Tuo's bedroom and pointed to the suitcase on the ground. "You used this..."

He stopped halfway through, then swallowed back his words. Inside the suitcase, there were clothes and toiletries packed to the brim.

Looking at Yan Tuo again, who had finished rinsing his mouth and wiped his face with a washcloth, he didn't even spare Lu Xian a glance.

I don't believe this!

Lu Xian gritted his teeth and searched the room again.

Gone, all gone. Yan Tuo must have tidied up in the morning. Those surgical garbage bags sealed by himself were nowhere to be found; Yan Tuo had brought back several shopping bags last night, but they were all gone; the surgical bed was wiped clean, without a trace; they say women easily shed hair, but he couldn't find a single strand on the floor.

CCTV! Yes! CCTV.

Lu Xian's eyes lit up, but then he deflated. There was CCTV, but it was installed outside the door, and Yan Tuo had even managed to clear away the hair. Could he have overlooked the CCTV?

He looked at Yan Tuo, feeling incredulous. "Is this necessary?"

Yan Tuo furrowed his brows and reached out to feel surveillance's forehead. "No fever, why are you talking nonsense after waking up?"

surveillance, feeling annoyed, pushed his hand away.

Yan Tuo remained calm: If Lu Xian could be trusted, that would be good; if not? It's better to be cautious and prevent trouble before it happens. He couldn't afford to capsize, so he had to be extra careful.

He dried his hands with a towel, went into the room to pack the suitcase, and dragged it out. "I'm leaving. I've informed Ah Peng, and he'll help you get an old phone first. You can come to Xi'an to get a new one from me."
