The next morning, Ruan Tinghe intended to personally deliver the evidence hair clip to the police station, but unexpectedly, Yin Quan returned.

Judging from his appearance, he had dark circles under his eyes, a sallow complexion, and looked listless, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Yin Quan hadn't slept all night; he didn't get back until 4 a.m.

He spent half the night making phone calls to medical professors abroad.

It has finally been confirmed that the "Heimlich maneuver" mentioned by Ruan Tinghe is real. It was officially named in 1975 and is still in the promotion stage.

It has not yet been introduced in China.

So he doesn't know yet.

But how did Ruan Tinghe know things that he didn't know?

Before his grandmother got up, Yin Quan asked her directly.

"Ruan Tinghe, how did you learn about the Heimlich maneuver? This first aid method hasn't been introduced to China."

Ruan Tinghe had long known she would be asked about this, so she was prepared.

"A foreigner taught me this method. I had food stuck in my throat, and he used this method to save me. He also taught me this method later."

Yin Quan asked with a hint of disbelief, "How do you know foreigners?"

"Of course it's to make money. I'm a woman raising three children alone, and I'll do anything to earn money."

Ruan Tinghe made it up off the cuff; sure enough, after telling lies so many times, one gets used to it!

"For example, translating for foreigners, or drawing for foreigners."

Yin Quan: "Your English is very good? I heard from Grandma that you wanted to find a translation job before."

Ruan Tinghe shrugged, looking helpless: "So-so. I learned it haphazardly on my own. Unfortunately, every job has its own niche, and with my half-baked skills, I definitely won't be able to find a translation job."

"It really can't be found."

"You..." Ruan Tinghe was speechless. "Can't you say something encouraging?"

"You won't find a translation job, but there's one that should be a good fit for you."

"What kind of job?" Ruan Tinghe immediately became interested.

"Enemy agents."

Yin Quan's words were loaded with meaning, his cold eyes fixed on Ruan Tinghe.

Ruan Tinghe retorted angrily, "What do you mean? Are you suspecting me of being a spy?"

"Are you?"

"Of course I'm not! If I were an enemy spy, I'd be hit by a car and die!" Ruan Tinghe hated enemy spies more than anything in her past and present lives. How could she possibly be an enemy spy!

"Yin Quan, you can call me inhuman! But you can't call me an enemy spy! You're insulting my character!"

Ruan Tinghe glared angrily at Yin Quan, wondering how this man could mistake her for an enemy spy, just because she spoke a foreign language? And knew the Heimlich maneuver?

"You, you're driving me crazy!"

Ruan Tinghe was genuinely angry. She turned and left, not wanting to talk to Yin Quan anymore.

Seeing how angry she was, Yin Quan couldn't help but doubt himself, wondering if he had really wronged her.

But she has so many secrets.

For some reason, seeing Ruan Tinghe so angry, he felt a little soft-hearted and regretful.

Perhaps I was wrong; I shouldn't have suspected her without investigating anything thoroughly.

With her and the children keeping Grandma and Aze company, the house finally felt lively again, and Aze's condition was improving.

I shouldn't have doubted her.

"Wait," Yin Quan blocked her way, "I'm sorry, I was being too suspicious."

"snort!"

Ruan Tinghe turned away and ignored her.

Yin Quan didn't know how to apologize, and after racking his brains, he finally came up with something.

"We have a patient coming for a follow-up appointment today. His situation is somewhat similar to Xiao Bao's. He went blind due to complications during birth, but his vision has been gradually recovering recently. He's coming to the hospital today for a vision check. Would you like to go see him?"

Ruan Tinghe turned around immediately, unable to hide her excitement, and asked, "How did he cure him?"

Yin Quan shook his head: "It seems they found a very skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor, but I don't know the specifics. Perhaps you can ask him yourself."

He only found out about it recently. He had originally planned to tell Ruan Tinghe last night, but the Heimlich maneuver incident delayed him.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the hospital right now!"

She grabbed Yin Quan's arm and started to walk out. Yin Quan yawned, too sleepy to move, but seeing how excited Ruan Tinghe was, he didn't want to disappoint her.

So he got her into the car, and just as he was about to start the engine, Ruan Tinghe asked, "Were you driving while fatigued?"

Yin Quan didn't react immediately: "Huh?"

"Have you not slept in a long time? Are you very sleepy and want to sleep?"

Yin Quan thought she saw he was tired and wanted to considerately let him go back to rest first.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Tinghe said, "Then you can rest in the back seat, I'll drive."

Yin Quan: ?

"What are you standing there for? I can drive, don't worry!"

Yin Quan still didn't move aside: "How can you drive? How can you do everything?"

"You're not going to suspect me again, are you? Didn't Shen Yan mention it to you? I often work for the Public Security Bureau in my hometown, going in and out with them all the time. Isn't it normal for me to know how to drive?"

Do you have a driver's license?

Now it was Ruan Tinghe's turn to be dumbfounded.

No one told her that you needed a driver's license to drive in Shanghai in 1976.

Yin Quan yawned again. "I'll drive. It's only a short distance. I can manage. I often go two or three days without sleep when I'm in the hospital having surgery."

Ruan Tinghe was still a little worried, but Yin Quan had already started the car, not giving Ruan Tinghe a chance at all.

Knowing she couldn't persuade her otherwise, Ruan Tinghe quickly said, "Wait a minute! I haven't gotten something yet!"

After saying that, he hurriedly got out of the car, went into the kitchen, and took out a packet of coffee powder from his storage space.

Brew it and serve it in the car.

"Here you go, drink this to perk yourself up!"

"Is this coffee?" Yin Quan looked at Ruan Tinghe in disbelief as he smelled the rich aroma of coffee.

"What? You don't suspect I'm a spy again, do you? Getting some coffee in Shanghai isn't difficult, is it?"

It's not difficult at all. There are many foreigners in Shanghai, so coffee still has an audience.

Yin Quan had drunk quite a lot of it, and it was indeed very helpful in refreshing the mind.

He didn't stand on ceremony and took a big gulp. The taste was much better than any coffee he had ever had before, and the flavor was much richer!

He didn't press her to ask where she bought it, lest he upset her again.

"If it's on your way, could you take me to the police station first?" Ruan Tinghe felt the hard object in her pocket and then remembered another important matter.

"What's wrong?" Yin Quan asked casually, unaware that a thief had broken into his house last night.

"Last night, two thieves broke into our residential compound, intending to steal from our family and also to kidnap our children."

Yin Quan gripped the steering wheel tightly; his Shen Nian had been abducted by kidnappers!

"Where's the thief? Has he been caught?"

"Of course, it has already been sent to the police station, but I found some evidence."

Ruan Tinghe showed the pearl hair clip to Yin Quan, "Those two thieves mentioned that a woman encouraged them to steal. This must have been a gift from that woman."
