Where Are Your Ear Studs?

"Li Lan, where are you?" Su Yang sat weakly in the car. His voice was low.

Li Lan's voice on the other end was quiet, but her breath was uneven. "Where else could I be? Didn't you ask me to come back? I'm in the hospital now. Are you coming back? I'll take a taxi to pick you up."

"You're in the hospital now? You didn't go home?" Su Yang held the ear stud in his hand, skeptical. If she was in the hospital, then the person who went to the basement earlier couldn't have been her. The hospital was 30 kilometers away, and she couldn't get there in just ten minutes.

"Yeah, I didn't want to go home. If you come back, I can take care of you." Li Lan tried to make her voice sound calm, but she was getting anxious. She had parked her motorcycle in an alley when she received Su Yang's call. If she couldn't rush back to the hospital, her lie would be exposed.
