Chapter 70



After Jiang Yubai and his car completely disappeared from sight, Shen Qingli slowly opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat.

Her movements were somewhat slow, as if all the strength in her body had been suddenly drained away, and she leaned back in the chair.

After a short rest, he reached into his bag and took out his cell phone. He tapped the screen with his fingertips, and his eyes became serious.

On the Internet, like a pot of boiling hot porridge, the wave of controversy about Union Hospital is still surging, with no sign of abating.

Netizens were filled with indignation, and their sharp comments were like a dense rain of arrows, demanding that the president of Union Hospital come forward and give an open and transparent explanation.

Those questioning voices are rising one after another: Are the test orders that doctors casually write out in private necessary considerations for accurate diagnosis, or are they a means for certain people to pursue personal gain and squeeze the hard-earned money of ordinary people?

Union Hospital, as the leading Grade A hospital in Beijing, usually carries the hopes and trust of countless patients. Now it is caught in such a whirlpool of public opinion, and the reputation and prestige it has accumulated in the past are in jeopardy.

Once the foundation of people's trust collapses, how easy will it be to rebuild it?

After all, hospitals are supposed to be holy places that save the dying and the wounded and serve the people wholeheartedly. Now that the storm has arisen, many people are worried and are hesitant about whether they can still be treated here with peace of mind in the future.

The situation got increasingly out of control and continued to ferment wildly, with the heat remaining high, prompting a quick response from above.

A sternly worded document was issued urgently, ordering a thorough investigation of the Xiehe Hospital. The words were full of a resolute intention to show no leniency, vowing to give a clear explanation to the people who were eagerly waiting.

Shen Qingli quietly read through the messages, took a long breath, and put away his phone.

She knew in her heart that although the exposure of this incident would cause the hospital to lose face and suffer short-term reputation damage, it would not necessarily be a completely bad thing in the long run.

At least those who lurk in the dark, harbor evil intentions, and do unjust things under the guise of curing diseases and saving lives will be more cautious in their actions in the future and will not dare to act recklessly again.

She secretly decided to wait until the matter was settled before officially submitting her resignation letter.

On the other side, when Mr. Zhou saw Lin Shuwen coming back, his calm face suddenly became anxious. After Lin Shuwen stood firm, he asked directly, "How is the matter going?"

Lin Shuwen lowered his head slightly, his expression solemn, "Master, I just went to the police station to inquire about the situation carefully. Sister Shen has already handed over all the relevant evidence to the police. Now we are waiting for the results of the investigation."

When Old Master Zhou heard this, his brows slightly wrinkled and he sighed softly. He thought to himself that it seemed that Xiao Li already had someone who was willing to help her.

"Have you made any progress on the matter I asked you to investigate last time?" Old Master Zhou suddenly changed the subject and looked at Lin Shuwen sharply.

Lin Shuwen nodded and answered: "Master, I haven't found out why the young master takes special care of Su Xinyao. If you want to know the reason, I'm afraid you have to ask the young master in person."

Mr. Zhou was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and waved at Lin Shuwen, his tone revealing a bit of loneliness: "You go down, I want to be alone for a while."

Lin Shuwen understood and replied softly, "Okay, sir, if you need anything, just let me know."

Having said that, he quietly retreated.

Mr. Zhou wanted them to be together happily, but were they really not destined to be together?

Shen Qingli left the hospital and had a simple lunch. Thinking that she still had time in the afternoon, she went to the mall to buy some supplements and prepared to visit Grandpa Zhou.

After the result of this matter comes out, she will leave Beijing.

I'm afraid it will be difficult to see grandpa again in the future.

The car stopped steadily in front of the Zhou family's old house. Shen Qingli took a deep breath, got out of the car, opened the trunk, and picked up the heavy supplements with both hands.

Then he went to the door and rang the doorbell.

When the servant saw her, he ran over to open the door, his face filled with enthusiasm: "Young lady, you are back."

This call made Shen Qingli's body startle slightly, and ripples appeared in her heart. She knew that Zhou Yanchen did not tell them about their divorce.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile, without deliberately correcting it, thinking that she would leave soon and they would naturally know it later.

"Well, is grandpa home?" she asked softly.

"Yes, the old man is drinking tea in the teahouse now. Young man, please go and find him directly." The servant replied respectfully.

"Okay." Shen Qingli handed the things in his hand to the servant and walked towards the tea room.

In the tea room, Lin Shuwen was standing quietly at one side. Through the clear glass, he was the first to see Shen Qingli's figure, and hurriedly reminded her softly: "Master, Sister Shen Xiao is here."

Mr. Zhou paused in his leisurely tea tasting, his eyes suddenly lit up with surprise, and he hurriedly ordered: "Quick, go get me the best tea."

Lin Shuwen understood what he meant, and said, "Okay, I'll go now," and quickly retreated.

At this moment, Shen Qingli appeared at the door of the tea room. Mr. Zhou immediately put down his teacup and greeted her lovingly, "Qingli, you are here. Come and sit down."

Shen Qingli walked up quickly and sat down opposite the old man, looking at him with concern: "Grandpa, how are you feeling recently?"

Mr. Zhou looked at her carefully, frowning slightly: "Well, I'm in good health recently. Why do you look like you've lost a lot of weight?"

Shen Qingli's smile deepened, and he shook his head lightly and joked: "Grandpa always says this every time he sees me, but in fact I haven't lost any weight at all, I eat well and sleep well."

But Grandpa Zhou refused to believe it. His eyes were full of heartache. He changed the subject with a barely perceptible complaint in his tone: "Xiao Li, why didn't you tell Grandpa what happened in the hospital?"

"You don't consider me your grandpa anymore?"

Shen Qingli's heart tightened, and he quickly reached out and gently held the old man's slightly rough hand. "Grandpa, it's not like that. You will always be my grandpa in my heart."

"I thought I could handle this myself, and I didn't want you to worry about it, so I didn't tell you."

Grandpa Zhou sighed, stared at Shen Qingli, and said slowly: "Shen Qingli, don't treat me as an outsider. If you have anything to say, tell me."

Shen Qingli nodded, "Okay, Grandpa."

Master Zhou thought for a moment and then spoke: "Xiao Li, are you really divorced from Chen Er?"

Shen Qingli subconsciously raised his eyes and met the old man's inquiring gaze. After a moment of silence, he finally responded softly: "Grandpa, you know everything."

"Well, we're divorced. I've figured it out. A forced marriage is not a happy one. He was very resistant from the beginning. I forced this marriage on him, and it's not fair to him."

"That's good. He can pursue his own happiness in the future."
