"Did you and Mr. Qin have a fight? You don't seem very happy," Fu Yunque asked cautiously.
"We didn't argue."
"If you're feeling down, you can try talking to me about it. Don't keep it bottled up inside."
Ling Mo nodded, clearly not wanting to continue the topic. He strode into the elevator and said calmly:
"I'm going to class now. Remember to reserve the lead surgeon position for me tomorrow."
Fu Yunque smiled and waved to her, "Goodbye."
As he turned around, he was surprised to see Qin Beiming standing not far behind him, staring intently at the closed elevator sliding door.
Fu Yunque nodded politely to Qin Beiming.
Perhaps because of his status as a "love rival," even the gentle Fu Yunque was not very willing to get close to Qin Beiming, who could be considered his number one love rival.
Qin Beiming also ignored Fu Yunque.
If it weren't for the fact that Fu Yunque was Old Madam Qin's attending physician, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to speak to Fu Yunque.
Now that only the two of them are present, the atmosphere naturally becomes subtle.
"Mr. Qin, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
Seeing Qin Beiming's indifferent attitude, Fu Yunque didn't wait for his reply and hurriedly brushed past him as soon as he finished speaking.
...
The next day, at the entrance of the operating room at Renhe Hospital.
Apart from Qin Beiming, who was anxiously waiting, dozens of members of the Qin family were also present.
Arriving breathlessly, Qin Wanli glanced at Qin Beiming, who stood with one hand in his pocket at the operating room door, and was furious. He coldly shouted:
"You insolent brat! Who gave you the right to make decisions on your own? Can you really trust doctors in a small town? If anything happens to your grandmother, I'll hold you accountable!"
"Chairman Qin, it's like this. The chief surgeon for Madam Qin is the world-renowned Divine Physician. With the Divine Physician in charge, there will absolutely be no mistakes." Chen Guo was afraid that Qin Beiming and his father would get into a fight, so he quickly stepped in front of Qin Wanli and tried to smooth things over with a smile.
"Wow~ Bei Ming has quite the influence, actually managing to invite the legendary physician. I just wonder if this physician is the same one as the legendary physician." Wei Xianya crossed her arms and affectionately linked them with Qin Wanli's arm, a faint smile always on her face.
Having understood the doubt in Wei Xianya's words, Qin Beiming didn't think of refuting her.
He was already used to her smug and petty nature.
“Master, I have a feeling something is off about this. We’ve spent a lot of time and effort on this, but we still haven’t found a top-notch doctor. Yet this kid, Bei Ming, was able to invite a top-notch doctor so easily? Could it be that your status in the Beijing circle is not as high as that of this junior, Bei Ming?”
Wei Xianya rubbed against Qin Wanli's arm, her words clearly tinged with jealousy.
To be honest, she and Qin Beiming didn't have any personal grudges.
The reason she always targets Qin Beiming is simply because the money and power he holds are blocking her path.
To trace this story back to the day she successfully ousted Qin Beiming's birth mother, Jiang Jingqiu, and married into the Qin family in a grand and glorious manner.
She originally thought that, given Qin Wanli's deep affection for her, she would be able to take sole control of the Qin family's finances after they married.
Unexpectedly, after learning that Qin Wanli and Jiang Jingqiu had divorced, Old Master Qin transferred 90% of the shares of the Qin Group to Qin Beiming in a fit of anger.
It was precisely because of this move by Old Master Qin that Wei Xianya, although she secured her position as the matriarch of the Qin family, was merely a figurehead and had no real power whatsoever.
The Qin family, with their opportunistic and snobbish members, only cared about Qin Beiming, who had both money and power, and no one paid any attention to her or her son Qin Shaojing, who was currently idle and was still messing around in the entertainment industry.
"Who cares how they were invited? I only care about the results."
Qin Wanli snorted coldly. Although he disliked Qin Beiming very much, he couldn't do anything about it.
Logically speaking, no matter how powerful Qin Beiming is, he shouldn't disobey his father.
In reality, Qin Beiming never took his father seriously from a young age.
In addition, Old Master Qin doted on Qin Beiming and transferred the group's shares to Qin Beiming's name early on.
Even if he disliked Qin Beiming, he didn't dare to go too far on the surface.
Fearing that he might go too far, Qin Beiming, who had absolute decision-making power, dismissed him from his position in the Qin Group in a fit of anger.
"Sigh...this is all we can do for now. I just hope that Mom can pull through this ordeal."
Wei Xianya sighed dramatically, but her carefully made-up face showed no trace of sorrow.
Qin Beiming was thoroughly annoyed by Wei Xianya's habitual acting, so he simply crossed his legs and sat on the bench outside the operating room, smoking as if no one else was around.
Wei Xianya had suffered from acute pneumonia, and even after recovering, she couldn't stand the slightest smell of smoke.
At this moment, seeing Qin Beiming actually smoking in front of her, she was so angry that her face turned red, and she stood there anxiously stamping her feet:
"Master, look at Bei Ming! He knows I can't stand the smell of smoke, yet he deliberately smokes in front of me. I think he's openly trying to provoke me!"
"If you're not feeling well, why don't you go look around somewhere else first? The surgery has only just begun and won't be over anytime soon."
Qin Wanli knew he couldn't persuade Qin Beiming, so to avoid a confrontation, he had no choice but to let Wei Xianya wander around by herself.
Wei Xianya gritted her teeth in resentment, gave Qin Beiming a cold glare as he frowned and remained silent, but ultimately suppressed the urge to argue with him and turned away angrily.
"Mom, where are you going?"
