Ning Jie usually wakes up quite early every morning, but today she woke up even earlier than usual. The reason was simple—someone had called her very early in the day.
In general, few people call Ning Jie. She has no relatives or friends in this city of Jing and the colleagues at her company are merely acquaintances; they don't have particularly close relationships with one another. Therefore, it's unlikely that any of them would call her unless there was official business.
But today, just a little after six o'clock in the morning, someone had called her. Ning Jie squinted at her phone for quite some time before confirming that this was an unfamiliar number.
"Could it be that someone dialed the wrong number" Ning Jie wondered to herself. Nevertheless, she picked up the call: "Hello Who is this"
The voice on the other end politely asked, "May I ask if this is Miss Ning Jie" It sounded like a woman.
"This is Ning Jie speaking. May I ask who you are" Ning Jie was puzzled; it seemed that the call wasn't made by mistake, but she had never heard this voice before.
"Miss Ning, hello. It's like this, do you know the divine doctor Xia of summer" The woman on the other end didn't identify herself but continued to ask Ning Jie.
"Summer " Ning Jie was stunned for a moment, "I know someone called Summer, but I don’t know if he is the one you're talking about."
"Then do you know where Doctor Xia is" The woman on the phone asked somewhat urgently.
"I don't know. We’re not close," Ning Jie answered, then couldn’t help but ask, "Who are you anyway"
"Miss Ning, I am a friend of Doctor Xia’s. I need to find him urgently. Do you happen to know his phone number" The woman still didn't reveal her name.
Ning Jie began to get a bit impatient: "I’ve already said that we’re not close. If you are his friend, then surely you should be more familiar with him than I am!"
"Miss Ning, I really need to find Doctor Xia urgently. Could you please tell me his phone number" The woman’s tone carried a hint of pleading.
"I really have no idea!" Ning Jie finally got annoyed and hung up the call. It was so bizarre; if they wanted to find Xia Tian, why did they bother her Even if they were contacting her, it was strange how secretive they were, not even revealing who they were after asking a few times!
Less than ten seconds later, Ning Jie's phone rang again.
"Hello, I already said I don't know!" Ning Jie answered the call and shouted at the other end.
A male voice responded: "May I ask if this is Miss Ning Jie"
Ning Jie was momentarily stunned before realizing that it wasn’t the woman who had called her earlier. "I am Ning Jie, who are you" she asked.
"Miss Ning, I apologize for disturbing you so early in the morning. I have an urgent matter and need to find Doctor Divine Medicine Xia. Would you be able to help me contact him" The man's tone was quite polite, but hearing this made Ning Jie even angrier.
"I don’t know anyone named Doctor Divine Medicine Xia!" Ning Jie angrily said before hanging up the call again.
But after just a few minutes, another call came in for Xia Tian. Ning Jie was about to lose it; how could that hateful guy cause her such trouble She couldn’t understand why these people had to find him through her when they knew he was hateful And she didn't even know him well!
After receiving several more similar calls, Ning Jie finally snapped and turned off her phone. Now she could finally have some peace.
Because the calls woke her up, she arrived at work earlier than usual before 8 AM, but she noticed that many people were even earlier, including Du Qing.
"Good morning Ning Jie!" What was strange for Ning Jie was that colleagues who usually didn’t talk to her initiated conversations with her.
“Oh, good morning,” Ning Jie replied and sat down at her desk in confusion. She wondered what day it was today as everything seemed a bit off.
"Ning Jie, you’re really lucky!" One of the colleagues couldn’t help but speak up.
Ning Jie found this strange: "What’s lucky about me"
Since she was young, she had always been the epitome of a luckless girl. Now that people were saying her luck was good, Ning Jie felt both sad and indignant. If having her situation be considered lucky meant there are no unlucky people in this world
"You met Xia Tian, the miracle doctor. Can you still say your luck is bad" Another colleague chimed in, then continued in a sycophantic tone: "Ning Jie, I’ve been feeling unwell lately, could you help me by having that miracle doctor friend of yours take a look at me"
"What miracle doctor I don’t know him!" Ning Jie was annoyed; it was about this again!
"Ning Jie, you can fool others, but not us. We’ve personally seen the miracle doctor come here to find you twice," a colleague immediately said.
Another colleague chimed in: "That’s right, Ning Jie; everyone knows about it! There are even people on the internet saying that you’re the miracle doctor’s girlfriend!"
"What internet" Ning Jie finally pinpointed the source of the problem. "Are you telling me that Xia Tian is really a miracle doctor"
As a matter of fact, until now, Ning Jie still couldn’t believe that Xia Tian was actually a miracle doctor. However, she did recall that Xia Tian had once offered to treat her eyes. Could it be that this detestable guy was truly a miracle doctor
Thinking back to the first time she met that guy, Ning Jie couldn't help but doubt whether he might actually be some kind of divine doctor
"Ning Jie, you don’t know what’s happening online Don’t you use the internet" a colleague asked in surprise.
"My eyesight isn't good, so I rarely go online," Ning Jie replied. Although she often sat in front of her computer, it was mostly for work and she seldom went to forums or other sites; she usually only browsed news updates online.
"No wonder you didn’t know then. Come here, let me show you a place, once you take a look, you’ll understand what’s going on," the colleague kindly opened up the Water Overflowing Beijing forum for Ning Jie and pointed at a pile of posts for her to read.
Ning Jie spent over an hour browsing through the forum before she finally figured out what was happening. It turned out that the hateful guy, Xia Tian, really was a divine doctor, and someone had said she was his girlfriend online, although not many people believed it. However, a lot of people believed that she did know Xia Tian personally, which infuriated her even more because someone had posted all her personal information online, which was outrageous behavior indeed—no wonder so many people were calling her early in the morning!
Ning Jie couldn’t help but look at Du Qing with suspicion, as she suspected that Du Qing might have spread this rumor. But without any evidence to prove it, there wasn't much she could do about it.
