âUmâ¦â
âBeing a doctor is your main occupation. Banana eating is just a part-time job.â
âHehe, got it.â
At one oâclock in the afternoon, the patient was wheeled into the operating theater, and the surgery was about to begin.
The Liu family members were waiting anxiously outside.
However, Xie Xiaotong walked into the stairwell while Liu Jingwei wasnât paying attention.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Xie Xiaotong went down two floors.
At the top of the stairs stood a fashionable young man with dyed yellow hair and black sunglasses.
The young man was quite tall. Even though he was wearing sunglasses, one could tell that he was several levels more handsome than Liu Jingwei.
âDarling, why are you here? Itâll be troublesome if they see you.â
The man in sunglasses wrapped his arms around Xie Xiaotongâs waist. âDidnât you say that the old fartâs surgery is today? I couldnât help but come over to take a look.â
Xie Xiaotong looked upstairs and realized that there was nobody watching, so she did not struggle.
âThe doctor said that the success rate of the surgery is only 5%. If there are any complications, he wonât even come out of the operating theater.â
âAre you sure heâs going to die in there?â
âMost likely.â Xie Xiaotong said.
âThe chief surgeon today is the best surgeon in Huashan Hospital, Li Chuhan. If even she says that the risk is so high, thereâs no need to talk about his recovery. Just wait here for the good news. Once he dies, the tens of millions of assets of the Liu family will be mine. After this, Iâll think of a way to see if we can get Liu Jingwei out of the house with nothing to his name. By then, our goal will be achieved.â
âIâm glad to hear that.â
The man in sunglasses patted Xie Xiaotongâs butt. âGo back first. Iâll wait for your good news in the car downstairs.â
âUh-uh.â
Xie Xiaotong kissed the man in sunglasses on the cheek. âDonât worry, itâll definitely be fine. In a few hours, that old fart will be dead. By then, everything in the Liu family will be ours.â
After separating, Xie Xiaotong pulled down her skirt and walked back to the operating theater with a calm expression. She even looked anxious.
The Liu family did not notice anything amiss.
Time passed minute by minute. Three hours later, the lights in front of the operating theater went out. Lin Yi, Li Chuhan, and Qiao Xin walked out.
Seeing Li Chuhan, Liu Jingwei and Liu Jingyu immediately went up to her.
âDoctor, how was the surgery? Howâs my father?â
âDonât worry, the surgery was very successful,â Qiao Xin said.
âAnd Director Li said that as long as he recovers well, he can live for another ten years.â
âReally? Thatâs great!â
Liu Jingwei knelt on the ground in excitement. âThank you, Director Li. Thank you, Director Li. From now on, you are our Liu familyâs great benefactor.â
âCome on, get up.â
The Liu family members were moved to tears. Xie Xiaotong stood rooted to the ground in a daze, feeling terrible.
How could this be? Wasnât there only a 5% chance of success?
âDirector Li, are you sure heâs okay? Were there any complications?â
Li Chuhan glanced at Xie Xiaotong.
âWhat do you mean? Were you hoping for an accident?â
âNo, no, no. Thatâs not what I meant.â Xie Xiaotong explained, âIâm also happy that the surgery was successful. Thank you, Doctor Li.â
Li Chuhan nodded. âThe nurse will be wheeling the patient out soon. You guys can just wait here for a while.â
âOkay, okay, okay. Thank you, Doctor Li.â
Liu Jingwei hugged Xie Xiaotong excitedly and kissed her.
âHoney, thank you. If you hadnât insisted on the surgery, we definitely wouldnât have gone through with it.â
Xie Xiaotong stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.
After packing up, the three of them returned to the department.
âIf thereâs nothing else tonight, donât leave. Itâs easy for something to happen on the first night after the surgery. Stay here and watch.â
âGot it, Director Li.â
It was already past five in the evening by the time everything was over. Lin Yi ordered something and took out his phone to chat with Sugar after dinner.
Nothing about her gaming skill level or personality had changed.
However, after working in the hospital for so many days and seeing all kinds of strange patients, Lin Yiâs tolerance toward Sugar increased a lot.
âAre you retarded? Even a dog would be better at playing this game than you.â
âAiya, stop scolding me. Actually, Iâve improved a lot.â Sugar said shamelessly.
âLetâs play another round. Iâve already learned my lesson.â
âI canât wait to tell the enemy team that their food has improved.â
He was just killing time. Lin Yi didnât really care about the results and was prepared to continue playing.
However, at this moment, Liang Ruoxu called.
âBusy?â
âYeah.â
âBusy with what?â
âPlaying games with girls.â
âWhat kind of business is that?â Liang Ruoxu said.
âWe have received almost 40% of the goods from the six major pharmaceutical companies. Of the remaining 60%, half of the stock will be delivered tomorrow. The remaining 30% will take some time to arrive. However, the pharmaceutical companies have already urged customs to let them go.â
At this point, Liang Ruoxu paused for a few seconds. âIf you have other plans, you can start preparing.â
âGood!â
Lin Yi stretched. The goods had arrived one after another, and he had to inform Cao Jingqiu to get ready to work.
However, before he could call Cao Jingqiu, Ji Qingyan called.
âDoctor Lin, what are you doing?â
âI just finished eating. Iâm on night duty today,â Lin Yi said, âWhere are you? Are you home?â
âYes, Iâve brought everything back. I wouldnât dare to work overtime without you around.â
âAt first, I thought it was fine to work overtime, but after you told me off, I realized I really had to be careful. Iâve already thought it through. When youâre not around, Iâll go home before dark in the future and never stay back late.â
âWhen Iâm not here, go home before dark, and when Iâm around, you wonât go home?â
âWhen you were around, was it up to me if I went home? When have I not been dragged to Jiuzhou Pavilion by you?â
âHehehe⦠Thereâs nothing wrong with saying that.â
âAlright, I wonât talk about it anymore. I still have work to do,â said Ji Qingyan. âSleep more when youâre not busy. Stay up late at night to take care of your health.â
âYou should rest early too.â
âUh-uh.â
The conversation between Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan went like usual.
There was no specific topic to discuss. They simply chatted about life.
Although it was nothing of value, they chatted quite enthusiastically.
After hanging up, Lin Yiâs phone rang again. It was Sugar.
âWerenât we going to play mafia? Why did you leave?â
âWhy are you in such a hurry? Just invite me to rejoin.â
After hanging up, the two of them continued to play games.
âBrother Lin, you seem to be very busy.â Qiao Xin was bored and was skimming through the Conan TV series. âAre all the calls from girls?â
âChildren shouldnât ask about such things.â Lin Yi took the peeled banana from the table and handed it to Qiao Xin.
âHere, have a big banana.â
âYes, yesâ¦â
Qiao Xin mumbled.
