Chapter 555: News Leaked
Old Tang quickly boiled the medicine, and as he walked by carrying it, the air was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine.
Qin Shuhua frowned. She glanced at Yan Shaoyu who was standing at the door, and a hint of hatred flashed across her eyes. But when she thought that her father was being treated, she suppressed her annoyance and stood aside obediently with her bag.
Old Mr. Tang stayed in the room for a while and then came out again, leaving Gu Yuehuai with a quiet space.
"Mr. Tang! How is it? Can my dad really wake up today?" Qin Liguo was the one who cared about Qin Yougong the most. When he saw Mr. Tang coming out, he hurried forward to ask. When he spoke, his tone became a little dry, for fear that the end would be disappointing.
Qin Yougong has been in a coma for seven days since he became seriously ill. If it weren't for the nutrient solution that kept him alive, he would have died long ago. In other words, only the senior medical staff here can afford the medicine. Besides, Qin Yougong is not an ordinary person. His condition is too serious and he cannot die. If it were an ordinary person, he would not be able to hold on for so long.
Gu Wei also came over and looked at Mr. Tang cautiously, hoping to get a positive answer.
Elder Tang frowned, looked back at the closed door, and said hesitantly, "Though those herbs are not common, I have used most of them before and they didn't have much effect. Maybe Doctor Gu has his own way of treatment?"
After hearing this, Qin Liguo and Gu Wei felt disheartened. Their original aspirations and hopes were shattered.
Although Qin Shuhua stood obediently aside, her ears were perked up.
After hearing what Elder Tang said, the pent-up anger in her chest suddenly surged out, and she sneered, "I told you, why would a young woman come to Beijing to take over Elder Tang's job? I think she's a liar!"
Qin Shuhua's noisy voice reached everyone's ears. Meng Hu looked at her with disgust and refuted: "Stop talking nonsense! Our military doctor Gu is very capable. Before she came here, she saved the lives of several comrades in our military region!"
"If it wasn't for Commander Xu's order, why would Doctor Gu take the trouble to come here?"
"You must be jealous because Doctor Gu is prettier than you, so you are deliberately slandering her here, right?"
The young man would be fine if he didn't speak, but when he spoke, his words were sharp and thunderous, making Qin Shuhua's face turn pale and blue.
"I am jealous of her? What is there about her that is worthy of my jealousy? Do you know who I am? How dare you speak nonsense and insult me here! You are blind!" Qin Shuhua's eyes were almost spitting fire.
However, she suffered a loss in the end and did not dare to step forward to fight. She just hid behind Qin Liguo and cursed.
Yan Shaoyu narrowed his eyes, pursed his thin lips into a sharp arc, and said in a cold voice: "Do you have a military rank? Have you made contributions to the country? Have you done anything worthy of praise for the people? Just because your father is Qin Yougong? You speak wildly to a soldier who just came back from the front line? Is this the upbringing Qin Yougong taught you?"
His words were cold, showing no respect for Qin Yougong at all, which made Qin Liguo frown unhappily.
Yan Shaoyu grew up in the Eighth Military Region since he was young. After returning, he often stayed in the military region compound. He was not very familiar with the children of these officials. At most, he had met them a few times. Since the Yan family fell into decline, no one would bother to remember his appearance.
At this time, Mr. Tang also frowned, but not because of what Yan Shaoyu said, but looked at Qin Shuhua: "As a female comrade, your words are really unpleasant. I think it's really because the authorities have been too indulgent to you in the past, which has caused you to be so unruly!"
Qin Shuhua looked pale and aggrieved. Before she could speak, Elder Tang frowned even deeper, his expression becoming solemn and serious: "Old Feng and I did not inform you that someone was coming to treat the authorities. Where did you get the news?"
Upon hearing this, the surroundings fell eerily quiet for a moment.
Yan Shaoyu's heart sank. Could it be that the news had leaked out in advance?
They have two missions on this trip. One is to rescue Qin Yougong of the Qin faction, and the other is to deal with the sorcerer behind the Jiang faction. Once the news leaks out, the Jiang faction and even the sorcerer will be on guard, making it even more difficult to take action.
Qin Liguo pursed his lips, looking a little embarrassed.
Qin Shuhua didn't care at all. She just snapped her fingers and didn't say anything.
"This matter is top secret. How did you know about it?" Elder Tang scolded in a deep voice.
The matter of Qin Yougong's serious illness requiring treatment involved a wide range of issues. Moreover, the person who came this time was a young female military doctor. In order to avoid any twists and turns in the process, he and Mr. Feng reached a consensus that no one should tell the news and keep it secret.
The situation was urgent just now and he didn't think too much about it. Only now that he thought about it did he discover the clue.
Qin Shuhua and Qin Liguo did not receive any notification. How did they know about this?
Qin Liguo would be fine, but with Qin Shuhua's temperament, how could she not provoke and ridicule when she met a young female military doctor like Gu Yuehuai? The sinister intentions of the person behind this are self-evident. It is clear that he does not want the authorities to get better!
Thinking of this, Mr. Tang's pupils shrank and he felt a chill in his bones.
Elder Tang glared and said sternly, “Speak!”
He was a gentle person and rarely got so angry. Qin Shuhua's face turned pale and she looked at Qin Liguo as if for help.
Qin Liguo sighed and bowed slightly to Elder Tang: "Elder Tang, Shuhua only heard from a friend that Commander Xu of the Eighth Military Region sent his military doctors to Beijing to treat my father. There is no way this matter can be concealed."
Yan Shaoyu sneered, "To treat your father? Who said I was here to treat your father? Qin Yougong is seriously ill, and this is a serious matter. This matter should not be made public. You just heard about it from a friend. Do you think it's a joke?"
Hearing this, Qin Liguo's back stiffened and he suddenly came to his senses.
He didn't care at first. After all, he had found many people to treat his father before. But now that it was related to the military, it should be concealed. Where did Qin Shuhua, who had nothing to do with military or politics, hear this?
Qin Liguo strode up to Qin Shuhua, grabbed her arm, and said sternly, "Shuhua, who on earth did you hear this from?"
Qin Shuhua didn't know the importance of the matter and shook off Qin Liguo's hand: "Ouch, you hurt me!"
She seemed to notice that everyone around her was looking at her, and knew that if she didn't give an explanation today, something might happen, so she whispered, "No one, I just ran into... ran into Jiang Tong at the Grand Hyatt Hotel yesterday, and we talked a little."
Qin Liguo took a deep breath and looked at her with disappointment: "Qin Shuhua, don't you know the relationship between our Qin family and the Jiang family? You are still entangled with him. Do you know that what you do will harm us!"
Qin Shuhua was dissatisfied: "How can it be as exaggerated as you say? I am me, and the Qin family is the Qin family. How can we mix them up? Jiang Tong and I come from similar families, and we admire each other. It's normal for us to be in a relationship. Brother, you are really making a fuss!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Liguo raised his arm and slapped her hard in the face.
He cursed: "Making a mountain out of a molehill? It's stupid! Stupid!"
