Chapter 939: [939] Leave it to the handsome senior brother to handle it.

Cao Yong took her note and stepped aside to make a call.

“What are they doing?” Huang Beibei whispered. She had been listening for a while but couldn’t understand what was going on. Why had Senior Cao suddenly started discussing academics with the other party?

“Is she trying to butter him up, asking Senior Cao medical questions, planning to have him guide her in writing her thesis later?” Shen Xifei speculated.

“That possibility can’t be ruled out,” Zhang Xiaohui also pondered.

Anyway, the more they observed, the stranger the relationship between the two seemed.

Before long, President Wu’s phone rang.

Oh no, it was actually Cao Yong calling. President Wu felt slightly uneasy. He had heard earlier in the afternoon that this person was looking for him to settle scores, so he hurried away. The monk might run away, but the temple can’t be moved. Sooner or later, they would have to lay it all out on the table.

President Wu cleared his throat before answering the call, “What is it, Comrade Cao Yong?”

Playing the role of Old Naughty Boy, Cao Yong spoke seriously, “There’s something I need to report to you, regarding the injury incident that occurred previously in our hospital.”

This matter concerned the hospital’s reputation and legal issues. President Wu’s expression turned solemn, “Go ahead!”

Cao Yong briefly summarized the incident, cutting to the core of the matter.

President Wu understood and said, “Leave this matter to me. Have Doctor Yin keep the patient in the hospital and treat her injuries until she’s ready for discharge.”

Trusting Old Naughty Boy was absolutely reliable.

It had been Old Naughty Boy who had arranged his initial visit to Songyuan. Old Naughty Boy had very reliable connections there.

After finishing that call, Cao Yong made another call to Yin Fengchun to instruct him.

In the hospital room, a nurse came in carrying a treatment tray, followed by Huang Zhilei and Zhou Junpeng.

Unaware of the new arrivals, Wu Lixuan remained immersed in her thoughts.

Holding her hands tightly for fear she would get agitated and pull on the tubes, Doctor Yin realized what Huang Zhilei and the others were there to do as soon as they walked in, a heaviness in his eyes.

If possible, he didn’t want to do this to her.

Huang Zhilei walked over and handed his phone to him.

Yin Fengchun freed up one hand to take the phone and put it to his ear to listen.

On the phone, Cao Yong’s voice conveyed a serious tone as he instructed, “Doctor Yin, the president has spoken about her family’s situation. Someone will help take care of it. So your task for tonight is to ensure she rests well.”

Having received his order, Yin Fengchun clenched his hand and said, “Yes.” His voice was so faint that no one could hear it. Turning around, the look he gave her held only that well-trained calmness.

Wu Lixuan finally noticed the several people in the room and looked up, “What’s going on?”

“It’s nothing, they’re here for me, to discuss some work,” Doctor Yin reassured her.

His voice sounded completely normal. Knowing that he was always busy, Wu Lixuan said, “You have important things to do, go ahead. Don’t worry about me.”

“I know,” he said softly, squeezing her hand.

That moment, Wu Lixuan finally sensed something was off and saw the intense grip he had on her hand. “I won’t pull out the tubes,” she said.

What was he fretting about? Since he had said leniency was not an option, she wouldn’t make things difficult for him; she would have to find another way. If she were really resolved to pull out the tubes and discharge herself, she wouldn’t have waited for a doctor to negotiate. Anyway, she had to consider the face of her childhood friend who worked as a doctor in this hospital.

Hearing her words, the others realized they had been overly anxious.

Doctor Yin’s heart went from tight to relaxed; it felt as if he had just taken another trip to and from Ghost Gate.

Wu Lixuan was truly in a rush and up in flames, her parents lacking mental clarity, which posed a great risk of mishaps.

Her phone rang, and seeing that it was her childhood friend calling, Wu Lixuan immediately answered the call.
