Chapter 4: Chapter 4 A Small Goal of One Hundred Million
Nan Qiao looked at Dr. Dong in shock, the woman was actually twisting the truth.
Dr. Dong then said, "Mr. Li, you need to deal with her quickly! She is pretending to be a doctor and has sinister intentions!"
Li Yehan's sharp and unlimited gaze glanced at Dr. Dong, "Are you teaching me how to handle my affairs?"
His low and cold voice carried a full penetrating force, making Dr. Dong tremble all over.
Li Yehan took two steps forward, standing in front of Nan Qiao, the scent of masculine hormones hitting her face-on.
His thin lips parted, his voice resonant and emphatic, "Tell me what happened."
Nan Qiao told the truth, "I was the one who saved your grandfather. If we had gone by her method, your grandfather would've certainly died."
Dr. Dong angrily said, "Mr. Li, she's lying. She's trying to get close to you through your grandfather!"
Nan Qiao retorted sharply, "Are you sick? I don't even know who he is or what his name is, why would I want to get close to him?"
Even if this man was handsome, so what? Was Nan Qiao supposed to approach him proactively?
Nan Qiao's expression was cold and proud, like a snow lotus on top of a snowy mountain, mysterious and aloof.
Nan Qiao's beautiful and cool demeanor seemed to say: Don't mess with me!
Under Li Yehan's sword-like eyebrows, his peach blossom eyes flickered with a trace of a light smile. When he turned his head to look at Dong Xiaorong again, however, it was filled with intense coldness and murderous intent, "Did I allow you to speak?"
The pressure from all sides fell entirely on Dong Xiaorong, making her tremble and unable to speak.
This…
"Mr. Li, I..." Dong Xiaorong didn't know what to say, she hadn't expected Mr. Li to believe Nan Qiao!
Being beautiful is amazing, huh!
At that moment, Uncle Fu arrived after completing the hospital admission procedures.
"Eldest Young Master, you're finally here. It's fortunate that this lady saved the old master, otherwise, I..." Uncle Fu's eyes brimmed with tears, unable to finish his sentence.
Uncle Fu's gaze towards Nan Qiao was clearly meaningful.
Dong Xiaorong only felt a coldness in her body as if someone had slit her throat, leaving her speechless.
Uncle Fu glared at Dong Xiaorong with anger, "Eldest Young Master, Doctor Dong Xiaorong disagreed with this lady's treatment plan. If we had gone with what Dong Xiaorong suggested, you wouldn't be able to see the old master now!"
To not deal with a quack like Dong Xiaorong, to let her stay in the hospital and harm people?
Dong Xiaorong panicked, hurriedly pleading, "Mr. Li, for the sake of my looking after the old master, please spare me..."
Uncle Fu, "Eldest Young Master, our old master has always been in good health. It is precisely because Dong Xiaorong came to care for him that the old master ended up in the hospital!"
It's all Dong Xiaorong's fault!
Dong Xiaorong thought, 'There's a curse, I'm not sure if I should say it or not!'
Dong Xiaorong's heart was filled with rage.
Just then, the hospital director arrived in a hurry, accompanied by the retired Professor Liu.
Li Yehan's piercing eyes turned to Mr. Lin, his words cold as ice, "Mr. Lin, is this the reliable doctor you introduced to me? She almost killed my grandfather!"
Mr. Lin was startled, looking at Dong Xiaorong with eyes full of anger and blame, "Dr. Dong, is this how you took care of Elder Mr. Li?"
Dong Xiaorong, frightened, argued with a trembling heart, "Mr. Lin, I've been very cautious in looking after Elder Mr. Li. Today, he heard his old friend had a great-grandson while in the car and, overcome with grief, insisted on going out alone for a walk. By the time we found him, he was unconscious. I suspect someone has harmed Elder Mr. Li!"
Nan Qiao, "You suspect me? Then call the police; luckily, there's a surveillance camera there, the truth will be clear at a glance."
Dong Xiaorong: ...
Damn it, how could there be a surveillance camera so coincidentally!
Li Yehan, "Lack medical skills, yet you dare to shift the blame?"
Uncle Fu said angrily, "Indeed, the old master was depressed because he didn't have a great-grandchild from the Eldest Young Master, but the old master's health wasn't so fragile as to be unconscious because of this. It's you, Dong Xiaorong, with your lack of medical skills, who tried to harm the old master!"
Nan Qiao folded her arms, her eyes sharply defined in black and white, shimmering with a mocking smile, "The patient is comatose and you don't even know the most basic methods of treatment, having a doctor like you really is bad luck for the hospital."
Professor Liu furrowed his brows and said, "The young lady isn't wrong. Old Lin, is the recruitment threshold for your hospital this low?"
Professor Liu was very impressed by Nan Qiao, young yet accomplished, neither arrogant nor impetuous—truly a promising student of medicine.
Plus, she knew the Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Needle, such an impressive background!
Professor Liu had come along as well, wanting to see for himself.
Mr. Lin couldn't save face being told off like this and glared at Dong Xiaorong fiercely, "You've completely disgraced me!"
Dong Xiaorong wanted to cry without tears, "Uncle-in-law, I..."
"Don't call me uncle-in-law. From today on, you're no longer a doctor at our hospital!"
Dong Xiaorong was numbed, petrified. Her medical career was over, just like that.
Dong Xiaorong wanted to argue her case, but Mr. Lin warned her ferociously, "If you dare say another word, you'll regret it!"
If she wasn't his niece by marriage, he wouldn't have bothered helping her!
And now he had shot himself in the foot!
Dismissed by the hospital, and with the incident involving the Li Family, no hospital would dare to hire her.
Dong Xiaorong's gaze turned hollow, walking forward like a zombie.
...
The room fell silent. With a look from Li Yehan, Secretary Gao handed over a check with both hands, "This is a small token of appreciation from Mr. Li. Please accept it."
Nan Qiao glanced at it and was momentarily startled, but her expression remained as cool and unconcerned as ever.
Wow, so many zeroes. The world of the wealthy is indeed extravagant; such generosity equals a small target for her.
Nan Qiao accepted the check. Treating patients and collecting medical fees is only normal, so of course, she wouldn't be coy about it.
Li Yehan's dark eyes settled on Nan Qiao, "Thank you for saving my grandfather. May I know how to address you?"
"Nan Qiao."
Professor Liu was taken aback, "You're a Nan? That's not right. The Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Needle is a Tang Family specialty..."
Professor Liu fell into deep thought, the more he looked at Nan Qiao, the more he wanted to know her true identity.
Nan Qiao hadn't anticipated that Professor Liu would also know about the Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Needle.
Li Yehan had also heard Professor Liu's remark and became quite curious about Nan Qiao's identity.
Just then, a nurse came in and said, "Old Mr. Li has woken up."
Li Yehan looked at Nan Qiao, his eyes deep, "Miss Nan Qiao, could you please check on my grandfather's condition again?"
At this time, Li Yehan trusted only Nan Qiao's medical skills.
Mr. Lin touched his nose awkwardly but understood Li Yehan's insistence perfectly well. After all, he had no choice but to comply with the wishes of such a powerful man.
"Mr. Li is right, Miss Nan Qiao. Please, could you check on Old Mr. Li's condition?" Mr. Lin said awkwardly, his smile his only cover.
Professor Liu said nothing, because he wanted to see Nan Qiao's needle technique again, wondering if he would have another chance.
Nan Qiao pondered and then said, "I'll go have a look."
Old Mr. Li had been saved by her, and to save someone, you should save them completely. She had accepted a billion, naturally, she wouldn't abandon the task halfway.
Nan Qiao followed Li Yehan into the ward, and the awakened Old Mr. Li, seeing this scene, was both shocked and delighted, "My granddaughter-in-law, you've finally come."
Nan Qiao: ??
What's going on?
