An Ning was amused by Luo Li's expression, which looked like she was plotting a major conspiracy. She playfully patted Luo Li's cheek and pushed her away.
"Rein in that wild imagination of yours and just stick to being a doctor."
"Sigh... All right."
In a tone of deep regret, Luo Li put down her scalpel and asked about the performance again.
"Today's performance wasn't representative of my true skill level."
After An Ning spoke, Luo Li nodded frantically as if she'd had a sudden epiphany.
"I get it! You're holding back now so you can blow everyone away later. Brilliant! Absolutely genius! You've definitely read your Thirty-Six Stratagems."
Believing she had figured it all out, Luo Li immediately lowered her voice. "Don't worry, your secret's safe with me."
"As long as you know."
An Ning just went along with Luo Li's theory. 'She couldn't very well say it was because the erhu wasn't the right one, could she?'
