Chapter 84 As long as it's useful
Yin Bailu was also very angry after hearing this: "There are more and more weirdos these days. They dare to do such things. Aren't they afraid that people will fight them to death out of anger?"
"Who said it wasn't? I was so impressed after watching it. I thought, don't we both have a daughter? Nowadays, all the men out there are so cunning. If they meet someone like this, wouldn't their lives be ruined?"
Yin Bailu was very unhappy when she heard her words: "Pah, pah, pah, gossip is gossip, don't curse our Jingyi,"
Du Lianshuang: “…” I’m just talking and you’re so angry. If you knew that this is what your Jingyi will encounter in the future, you would immediately carry an Italian cannon and shoot Cui Jueyan and his son.
After thinking about it, Du Lianshuang felt that this was feasible. Anyway, she also had to investigate Cui Jueyan, and that bastard had probably just made contact with Jingyi, so there was still time.
It would have been fine if she didn't know before, but now that she knows, she absolutely cannot let that bastard get close to their good child!
Du Anrao's tense nerves relaxed after hearing Du Lianshuang's explanation.
[So it was news. That’s right, art comes from life. Some things in reality are more explosive than fiction. After all, fiction requires logic, but reality does not.]
Du Lianshuang and her mother finally put their minds at ease. Du Lianshuang even raised her eyebrows proudly, proud of her extraordinary reaction speed.
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door of the ward, and then two men walked in from outside.
"What are you talking about? The atmosphere is so serious?"
The first person to come in was Yin Bailu’s husband, Liao Yuqian, who had just been mentioned by Du Lianshuang and the others.
The man looked to be in his early forties, wearing a spotless white suit, very elegant, and seemed like someone who was easy to talk to.
But only those who are familiar with him know that underneath his white shell is a dark substance. If you dare to treat him as Maitreya Buddha, he will eat you till there is nothing left.
Yin Bailu stepped forward naturally, took her husband's hand, and said with a faint smile: "We are discussing some weird news. What did you do just now that took you so long?"
"After using the restroom, I happened to run into someone I knew, so we chatted for a while."
"An acquaintance?" Yin Bailu looked over in confusion, and then she noticed that there was a young man following her husband.
"Let me introduce you. This is President Xi Jingyue of Shengshi Group, the one I mentioned to you before."
Yin Bailu was a little surprised. Liao Yuqian had indeed mentioned this Mr. Xi to her, but she had always thought that he was a CEO about the same age as her husband. She didn't expect him to be so young.
"Hello, President Xi. I've often heard Yu Qian mention you before. Seeing is believing. I never thought President Xi is so...young and promising."
"Ma'am, thank you for the compliment. It's all thanks to Mr. Liao." Xi Jingyue said a few humble words and then turned his attention to Du Anrao.
It was no coincidence that he would appear in this place. The hospital under the name of the Xi family was conducting technical discussions and cooperation with this hospital, and they needed someone to come and negotiate in advance.
Originally, such a small matter did not require the involvement of a major shareholder like him, but Xi Jingyue had found out early on that the Du family had shares in this hospital, so he thought of using this as an excuse to come over and see if he could meet Du Anrao or even the Du family in the hospital.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the hospital gate, he ran into Liao Yuqian who came with his wife to visit the patient.
After learning that the person his wife was visiting was also named Du, Xi Jingyue decisively chose to go with him, and a few meters away from Du Lianshuang's ward, he heard Du Anrao's complaints full of resentment and indignation.
In order to listen longer, Xi Jingyue even endured Liao Yuqian's strange gaze and talked to him for a long time about the recent international economic situation. So now he has basically figured out the relationship between Du Anrao and the hospitalized Ms. Du and the Liao family, as well as the plot points triggered by these people collectively.
Recalling Duanrao's excited tone when he was thinking enthusiastically about how to make that Phoenix man and his son break down, Xi Jingyue could even imagine the little man in her mind jumping around with excitement, and there was a little more smile in her eyes.
"Miss Du, what a coincidence, we meet again."
Du Anrao was also surprised to see Xi Jingyue: "Mr. Xi, why are you here?"
"The hospital under my name has a cooperation with this hospital. I came to take a look while I was here on business."
Duanrao frowned, as if thinking about something.
[This statement sounds familiar. Mr. Xi seemed to have said the same thing when I went to the hospital to see Brother Yang last time? Oh, no, the hospital last time was his. This time I came here just to exchange and learn as a partner. If you think about it carefully, it is true that large hospitals like this usually have some connections with other large hospitals, so they can call for help when they encounter difficult and complicated diseases.]
[Mom seemed to have mentioned before that the Third Hospital and the First Hospital have a partnership, and many doctors at the First Hospital are very familiar with Dad. I think Mr. Xi’s situation should be similar.]
Seeing that Du Anrao was suspicious of him and trying to find excuses for him, Xi Jingyue felt helpless and amused.
So, it’s not the quantity of excuses that matters, as long as they are useful.
Duanrao was slow to notice these little tricks, but that didn't mean the adults were as easy to fool as she was.
Especially Du Lianshuang. She had been suffering from PTSD recently because of the incident with Cui Jueyan and his son, and was even more alarmed when she heard Du Anrao's muttering. She looked at Xi Jingyue with sharp scrutiny and vigilance.
"An An, do you know this...Mr. Xi?"
Duan Rao did not suspect anything and enthusiastically introduced the two parties: "Mr. Xi is Mr. Li's cousin, the Mr. Li who invited my fourth sister and I to the banquet. When we were in J City before, we met Mr. Xi several times and he took good care of us."
When Du's mother heard Mr. Li inviting them to the banquet, she immediately matched the Li family with the people in front of her and subconsciously narrowed her eyes.
It turned out that this was the Mr. Xi that the second brother had mentioned. He was quite handsome and had a good appearance. Judging from his looks alone, he was indeed good-looking.
No wonder the second brother felt like he was facing a formidable enemy whenever he mentioned him, fearing that this man would kidnap their little one.
Thinking of this, Du's mother also had a trace of doubt in her heart. This person happened to appear here today. Was it a coincidence or...
"Ms. Du, you are too polite. What I did before was just a piece of cake. On the contrary, it was Miss Du who helped me and my cousin a lot."
Xi Jingyue paused when he said this, and thinking of his cousin who was still struggling to clean up the mess in J City, he mercifully explained a few words for him.
"Yesterday, when he learned that I was coming here, he specifically told me to thank Miss Du on his behalf. He has a lot of things to deal with right now, so he can't get away. Once he has dealt with all these things, he will come to S City in person to thank Miss Du and...Miss Du's sister."
