Chapter 767 Unreasonable Behavior
"I'll give it a try."
All he could say was that he would try his best to see if there was any way to get Wen Qingyi into the First People's Hospital.
If they can both work at the same hospital, then there's a lot more room for maneuver.
The real challenge is getting Wen Qingyi to the First People's Hospital.
...
A few days later.
Wen Qingyi was originally recuperating at the Third Hospital, but because the main building of the Third Hospital was completely destroyed by the earthquake, she was originally arranged to recuperate at Xiangshan Hospital. However, she did not know why the doctor informed her that she would be transferred to another hospital.
“Xu Chen, I really like being here. The environment here is much better than the Third Hospital. Could you ask the doctor not to transfer me to another hospital?” she said to Xu Chen, who had been by her side the whole time.
Xu Chen peeled an apple for her, saying as he did so, "There was an earthquake at the Third Hospital, and beds are in short supply at all hospitals. If you don't transfer to another hospital, your bed will have to be moved. If there are no beds available, would you be willing to sleep in the corridor?"
This is what he learned after rushing to the scene to understand the situation immediately after seeing the news of the earthquake. It's not something he could arrange for her just because he wanted to.
After all, the situation is different now; no one can withstand a natural disaster like an earthquake.
"I don't want to!" Wen Qingyi refused without even thinking. "But Ah Chen, is there really no other way? I really don't want to transfer to another hospital."
She drew out the last syllable of her voice, giving off a distinctly feigned pitiful vibe, making her sound innocent and pathetic.
Hearing this, Xu Chen didn't indulge her this time: "You're already lucky to have a ward to stay in. Xiangshan Hospital doesn't have enough beds to begin with, and they need to be made available for those who need them. So don't be so picky."
Besides, her condition has gradually improved. More than her, he is worried about where Lu Nanchu, who is missing, is.
Since the earthquake, she seemed to have vanished into thin air, completely disappearing from the world, and he couldn't find her no matter how hard he searched.
"But I've already been transferred to another hospital once. I don't want to be transferred again!" Wen Qingyi didn't notice the strangeness in Xu Chen's emotions and continued to argue with him: "Brother Chen, please help me to the end and let me stay at Xiangshan Hospital, okay?"
Xu Chen, barely able to contain himself, said, "Enough! If you don't want to transfer hospitals, go and argue with the doctors! Don't argue with me here! I'm already overwhelmed with my own problems, how can I have time to bother with yours? Stay or leave if you want, if not, get out!"
No one forced her to live here.
Originally, she had almost recovered from the surgery and could have gone home for further treatment, but she insisted on staying at the Third Hospital. Now that the Third Hospital has been hit by an earthquake, she has been transferred to Xiangshan Hospital, which is nearby. Who can she blame?
"Brother Chen, what's wrong?" Wen Qingyi had never seen him so angry before, and she was a little scared. She, who had been making a fuss all along, was so frightened that she dared not make a fuss anymore: "Don't scare me, I'm still a patient..."
Perhaps because Xu Chen had just lost his temper, she spoke cautiously, afraid of accidentally touching his sore spot.
Xu Chen's expression changed several times before he finally said, "I'm going out for a bit."
With that, Xu Chen turned and walked out of the ward, took out his phone and made a call: "Hello, it's me. Have you found the person?"
"I'm sorry, Second Young Master Xu, I've inquired with the police many times about Miss Lu's whereabouts, and they all say they've never seen her." The voice on the other end sounded somewhat cautious: "Do you think Miss Lu might have already passed away?"
Otherwise, how could they have searched for a whole week and still have no trace of it?
They're either dead or probably still trapped under those concrete blocks.
However, this outcome may not be what Young Master Xu wanted to see.
Upon hearing this, Xu Chen retorted without hesitation, "Impossible! Nan Chu couldn't have just died like that! Did you not put in enough effort to find her? Is it because you were incompetent that you couldn't find her? Keep searching! I want to see her alive, or... I want to see her body."
The last few words seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat.
He didn't want to hear the news that Lu Nanchu had passed away, because he simply couldn't understand why Nanchu would go to a place like the Third Hospital.
In his opinion, Nan Chu would never have gone to the Third Hospital, but then again, if she didn't go to the Third Hospital, then why is she still missing?
"Yes, we will continue the search, but you should be prepared for the worst." He could only do his best to help him search, but whether they could find it in the end depended entirely on fate.
He hung up the phone immediately after saying that.
Xu Chen clutched his phone in one hand and leaned against the wall with the other, muttering in anguish, "Nan Chu, where are you...?"
Where can he possibly find her?
Is she deliberately avoiding him? Or has something really happened to her?
With that thought in mind, he abandoned Wen Qingyi and ran straight to the hospital parking lot. The black Rolls-Royce sped along until it stopped in front of the Xu family's old mansion.
This was the first time he had returned to the old house since his father kicked him out of the Xu family.
When the servants at the Xu family mansion saw him return, they exchanged glances before going in to announce, "Master, the young master is back."
"Young Master?" Xu Yi scoffed coldly, then gave him a cold glance: "What young master does the Xu family have?"
Realizing she had misspoke, the maid quickly corrected herself, "I'm sorry, I misspoke. It's Mr. Xu Chen who's requesting an audience outside. Will you see him?"
Although the master always regarded the young master as his son, he just couldn't hold back with his words.
They've seen it all before, but now that he's back, he's showing this kind of attitude again. It's really hard to understand.
"Let him in."
He wanted to see what this unfilial son was up to this time!
"yes."
The maid quickly brought Xu Chen in and then silently left the living room. The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became cold and silent. No one spoke first, and they just looked at each other.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Chen finally spoke first: "Dad, please allow me to still call you that. I really have something to ask of you this time."
"What could possibly require the Lu family's live-in son-in-law to personally come to my Xu family to beg this old man?" Xu Yi immediately retorted, unable to resist saying sarcastically, "Mr. Xu, why don't you tell me?"
He kept addressing Xu Chen as "Mr. Xu," which made Xu Chen feel a pang of sadness: "Dad, Nan Chu has disappeared. I've been looking for her for a whole week and I still can't find her. Do you have any news for me?"
