Chapter 217 The Truth That Isn't Too Late (shuhaige.net)



Everyone looked at Li Ying: "So, according to you, this is a rare disease?"

Li Ying nodded: "Yes, it's not common, which is why it's easy to misdiagnose."

The dean asked Li Ying to come to his office and write down the patient's condition, medication instructions, and the best medications. Dean Xu also had it recorded and archived in the hospital's archives for future teaching and research.

"Comrade Li Ying, would it be alright if we asked you to serve as a consultant for the hospital?" Dean Xu asked with a smile.

Lu Laochong nodded to Li Ying, hoping she would agree.

Li Ying declined, saying, "I really don't deserve the title of consultant. If the hospital encounters any difficult or complicated cases in the future, and they ask me to come over, I will."

Mr. Lu gave an awkward smile.

That girl is just so stubborn.

After leaving the dean's office, Mr. Lu and Li Ying went to the inpatient department to check on the condition of a particular patient.

Li Ying saw Jing Chi and another man at the door of the ward.

"She's the one who diagnosed my mother's illness?" Leng Su frowned, finding it hard to believe that she was so young.

“Yes, it’s her, the person I asked you to investigate before.” Jing Chi glanced at Leng Su. “The information you gave me is wrong.”

"I was in a hurry and gave the documents to Jiang Nuannuan. I didn't expect it to turn out like this." Leng Su also felt apologetic.

Jing Chi sighed: "It's not your fault, it's my fault."

"Then you two..."

"Let's talk about it later."

Old Lu and Li Ying had already reached the door. Leng Su stepped forward, took Li Ying's hand, and with a cold, expressionless face, simply said, "Thank you!"

Jing Chi pulled Leng Su aside and said to Li Ying, "This is Leng Su. He is a private investigator."

Private investigator?!

If Li Ying remembered correctly, Ye Jingchi said he had hired a private investigator to investigate her and her child, so he should know who the father of her child was.

"Hello, my name is Li Ying."

Li Ying reached out and shook Leng Su's hand again before stepping into the ward.

After examining the patient's condition, Li Ying discussed the precautions with the attending physician before leaving with Mr. Lu.

Back at the clinic, Leng Yan had been waiting for a long time.

"You're not coming to ask me to pretend to be your husband again, are you?"

Leng Yan shook his head, his hand holding the teacup was a little sluggish, and he seemed somewhat dazed.

"Is this still the decisive and efficient Master Leng?" Li Ying noticed the change in Leng Yan and spoke sarcastically.

"What does it feel like to love someone?" Leng Yan suddenly asked.

Li Ying was almost startled, looking at Leng Yan: "So, Master Leng has fallen in love? Let me guess what kind of girl could make our usually calm and collected Master Leng fall in love?"

"Stop joking with me, Lu Yufei. Just tell me, what would happen if I developed a relationship with her?" Leng Yan asked seriously.

After listening to Leng Yan's words, Li Ying fell into thought.

Leng Yan had no one else to consult, which is why he was waiting here for answers to his questions.

Objectively speaking, a family as prestigious as the Lu family is not someone like Leng Yan can aspire to. As he once said, he used to live like a dog. Being adopted by Aunt Jing was just a change of identity to be a dog.

However, marrying Lu Yufei would mean becoming an adopted son-in-law of the Lu family, essentially becoming a dog with a higher social status.

"Do you want me to tell the truth, or do you want to hear something nice?"

Leng Yan pondered for a moment and said, "I need you to analyze it for me, just analyze it, I will judge for myself whether it is good or bad."

"Leng Yan, you're finished. You've really fallen in love. Only someone who's truly in love would disregard the outcome and only want the answer they desire."

Leng Yan scoffed: "After so many years in the underworld, I do want a home, but as for being sentimental, I think you're just romanticizing my ambition."

Li Ying laughed: "You're still making excuses for your feelings, using this as a stepping stone to success, right?"

“You know, my situation in the Jing family is very difficult right now. Aunt Jing has established the headquarters, and Jing Chi has taken over the reins. The little power I have is being gradually stripped away. Of course, I need to leave myself a way out.” Leng Yan spoke very clearly, and it seemed that his meaning was also very clear: climbing up the Lu family’s high branch was another kind of rebirth for him.

"So you opened a clothing store for Ah Hu and found suitable positions for many of your subordinates, just so that when you lose power, you can find a capable person to cling to?" Li Ying smiled as she looked at Leng Yan.

This person always speaks in a half-truth.

Saying she wants to find a powerful backer clearly means she's fallen in love.

"That's right."

“Leng Yan, if that’s really the case, why are you so troubled?” Li Ying said incisively.

If there is truly no emotional connection, and every choice is made solely for personal gain, then why worry about the outcome?

"I love the way you tease me." Leng Yan finished his tea, stood up, and said, "I'm leaving."

“Leng Yan,” Li Ying called out to Leng Yan, “I think I can be your best friend, and also your best family member.”

Leng Yan stopped in his tracks, raised his hand and waved: "Don't worry, I'll bother you again."

After saying that, he strode away.

Li Ying turned around and saw a note where Leng Yan had just placed the tea.

Li Ying walked over, picked it up, and saw that it was left by Leng Yan.

(Avoid meeting with Jing Chi in the near future)

"Why is this guy being so mysterious?"

Li Ying tore up the note and threw it away.

The next morning, as soon as the clinic opened, Leng Su came with gifts to express his gratitude.

"I heard from the hospital staff that it was you who diagnosed my mother's illness and was able to prescribe the right medicine. This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."

Li Ying was just about to go find him when he unexpectedly showed up.

"Mr. Leng, right?"

"Yes, you can just call me Leng Su."

Li Ying invited Leng Su to sit down in the backyard and have a glass of water.

"Does Dr. Li have something he wants to ask me?" Leng Su asked.

Li Ying nodded: "I heard that Ye Jingchi asked you to investigate my affairs before. What was the result? Can you tell me?"

She also really wanted to know who the man from that night was.

Leng Su asked in surprise, "You still don't know the specifics?"

“The information you gave me before has been altered; some of it is untrue,” Li Ying wanted to hear Leng Su say in person.

Leng Su was quite embarrassed: "It was my oversight. I took a private job and smuggled myself to Hong Kong. I couldn't come back for a while, so I forgot about it. Actually, that night at East Lake, it was Ye Jingchi. Your son is also Ye Jingchi's."

Upon hearing this, Li Ying felt a sense of relief for some reason.

"That's good."

In any case, she can openly tell Chenchen that his father is Ye Jingchi.

"Dr. Li, what happened between you and Ye Jingchi? How did things turn out like this?" Leng Su was baffled.

Li Ying sighed, "It's all fate's arrangement. But I still want to thank you, because your appearance has made me feel much better."
