Lin Yi turned around and saw that the person who spoke was wearing a nurse’s uniform. She was about forty years old, and her attitude and expression were a little overbearing.
In the hospital, only the head nurse would dare to speak in such a tone.
“We want to go to the 18th floor to see the patient. Why is the path blocked?”
“The 18th floor is a high-security ward. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter,” the middle-aged nurse said. “No one is allowed to enter without an ID issued by the hospital.”
“Um…”
Lin Yi was a little surprised. He didn’t expect such a rule.
Huashan Hospital did not seem to be this strict.
“Can we call the family and ask them to pick us up?” she asked.
“No!”
The nurse refused righteously. “The people living upstairs are all the leaders of the province and their families. Do you think you can enter just because you want to?”
“So be it. Did you eat gunpowder or did you have an endocrine imbalance?” Liang Jinming said.
“What are you talking about? This is my…”
“Little Li!”
Just as the middle-aged nurse was about to flare up, another middle-aged man hurriedly walked over and pulled her behind him, holding Lin Yi’s hand enthusiastically.
“Director Lin, what a coincidence to see you here.”
“Um…”
Lin Yi was a little stunned. This person was a little unfamiliar and he didn’t seem to have met him before.
“And you are?”
“I’m the director of the orthopaedics department, Tao Liu.”
“Oh, hello, hello.”
“Director Lin, are you here to see the patient?”
Lin Yi nodded. “But I was stopped by your people.”
“It’s a small matter. I’ll scan the elevator for you. You can just go up.”
“Isn’t this against the rules?”
Liu Tao chuckled. “Aren’t rules set by humans?”
“Then we’re in trouble.”
“Of course, of course. Don’t stand on ceremony.”
Liu Tao enthusiastically helped Lin Yi swipe his card and the group got into the elevator.
At this moment, the middle-aged nurse walked over.
“Chief Surgeon Liu? You know that man?”
“I know him, but he doesn’t know me.”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“It means you almost got into trouble,” Tao Liu lectured.
“I was just following the rules. What did I do?”
“Let me tell you, that Director Lin just now used to be the department director of the cardiology department at Huashan Hospital.”
“So what if he’s a department director? You’re also a department director. You’re on the same level as him. Why were you still bowing and groveling?” The female nurse did not mind.
“Let me tell you, you’re lucky today. If the dean hears about what happened just now, he would have deducted at least a month’s bonus from you,” Tao Liu said.
“Don’t think of him just as a director. Even if the dean sees him, he would have to politely call him Director Lin.”
“Is… Is he that powerful?”
“That’s how amazing he is,” Tao said. “There’s almost no one better than him in the medical industry in Zhonghai and the entire country.”
“Really? How old is he? Could it be that his family background is very deep?”
“His background is one thing, but he’s also very skilled. He’s the number one cardiovascular surgeon in Huaxia.”
After coming out of the elevator, He Yuanyuan teased, “There are even people who take the initiative to greet you here.”
“Maybe he knew something about me and recognized me.”
Ji Qingyan held Lin Yi’s arm with a sense of pride.
Compared to the other floors, the environment on the 18th floor was obviously much better.
It was almost enough to re-enact scenes from television dramas.
Following to the information they had previously obtained, the group arrived at the door of Room 1801.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
“Please come in.”
...
A woman’s voice came from inside. Lin Yi pushed the door open and entered.
The group of them entered the ward. It was very big, measuring at least 70 square meters. There were all kinds of equipment here.
Other than Gao Zongyuan’s grandmother, there were three other people in the ward.
A middle-aged woman in a gray dress was sitting at the end of the bed. She looked a little haggard. When she saw Lin Yi, Qin Han, and the others enter, she stood up.
The middle-aged woman’s name was Fan Jing, Gao Zongyuan’s mother.
They had met Qin Han and Liang Jinming before and knew each other.
The remaining man and woman looked very young, about 20 years old.
He also stood up.
The man’s name was Gao Zongjing, and he was Gao Zongyuan’s cousin. The woman beside him was Fu Le, his girlfriend.
Judging from their attitude towards Qin Han and Liang Jinming, they knew each other.
“Why didn’t you inform us in advance? Quick, take a seat.” Fan Jing called out, “Has business been busy at home recently?”
...
“Everything’s fine at home.” Qin Han smiled and greeted her. Then, he turned to the side and said,
“Aunt Fan, let me introduce you to Lin Yi. Zongyuan should have mentioned him before. This is his girlfriend, Ji Qingyan, the CEO of Chaoyang Group. This is Zongyuan’s girlfriend, He Yuanyuan.”
Fan Jing often heard Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan’s names.
She also knew what kind of people they were.
However, He Yuanyuan’s arrival surprised Fan Jing.
As the saying goes, a mother knows her son best. As his mother, she naturally knew about her son’s situation.
She had long known that his son had fallen in love with a girl named He Yuanyuan.
However, she did not expect her to come here today.
On the other hand, when she saw He Yuanyuan, Gao Zongjing revealed a cold expression and sized her up carefully.
“Come, come, come. Take a seat.” Fan Jing was very enthusiastic, and her words and actions were very honest.
She did not have the aura of a wealthy lady.
Gao Zongyuan had said before that they came from poor families. Although they were rich now, their temperament and speech were very down-to-earth, just like ordinary people.
“What have you been up to recently? I haven’t seen you in a long time,” Qin Han said casually.
“I’ve been a little busy at the company recently, and now that I have a girlfriend, I’ve calmed down,” Gao Zongjing said shyly.
“You’re right.” Qin Han chatted casually. “There are so many benefits to this. When you get married, I’ll give you a big red packet.”
“Thank you, Brother Qin.”
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Just as they were talking, Gao Zongyuan’s grandmother coughed a few times.
“Mom, you’re awake.”
Fan Jing walked over and rolled up the bed. This way, the old woman would be more comfortable.
The old lady was helped to her feet. Her blurry eyes lit up as her gaze landed on Ji Qingyan.
“My, my granddaughter-in-law is here… Quick, let me take a look…”
“Grandma, you’ve misunderstood. This is my wife.” Lin Yi stood up and pulled He Yuanyuan up. “Your granddaughter-in-law is here. This is an authentic domestic product with nationwide warranty. Please charge it for 24 hours before first use.”
