"Xiao Fu, what brings you here?"
Before Qin Sheng could explain, Gu Yueming strode over, her scrutinizing eyes scanning Qin Sheng and Fu Jingheng. The more she looked, the more uneasy she felt, and she couldn't help but ask, "Sheng Sheng, you two..."
Qin Sheng hooked her fingers inward as she typed on the keyboard, and lied to her mother with a blank expression: "Oh, Brother Fu was passing by our school and happened to hear Dad calling me, so he brought me here."
Gu Yueming, unusually, disagreed: "How can we trouble Xiao Fu? Isn't there Mo Huang?"
Qin Sheng pointed to the computer on her lap: "I sent Mo Huang home to get his computer."
The time, place, and reason all matched perfectly, without any problems, but Gu Yueming still felt that something was off.
But it's not appropriate to say anything more.
Her eyes darted around, and she changed the subject: "Grandpa Fu... I mean my dad, how has he been lately?"
“I haven’t seen him for a while, but he sounded quite energetic when we talked on the phone the other day, so he should be doing well.” Fu Jingheng glanced at Gu Yueming and coughed lightly, “Don’t worry, Aunt.”
The word "Aunt" eased Gu Yueming's tension by half, and a smile appeared on her face: "Don't worry, don't worry."
Thinking about it, I realized I was being a bit paranoid, even suspecting Fu Jingheng, who is Sheng Sheng's cousin, and I felt a little embarrassed.
She quickly thanked him, "I haven't thanked you yet for bringing Sheng Sheng here. You've really gone to so much trouble."
Fu Jingheng smiled slightly: "Auntie, you're too kind."
Then he looked at Qin Sheng, whose dark eyes sparkled with tiny starlight: "Sister Sheng Sheng is so well-behaved and cute, it makes people want to be nice to her, care for her and love her. I hope you don't find me annoying."
These words struck a chord with Gu Yueming, and her last bit of resentment disappeared. She said with a reserved yet proud air, "That's true. Our Sheng Sheng is just that lovable."
"Little Fu, our Sheng Sheng has a rather aloof personality, so it's rare that she gets along with you. Please come to our house more often when you have time. Your aunt will definitely give her a warm welcome."
Fu Jingheng's eyes crinkled into a smile: "Then I shall accept your offer."
Qin Sheng, who witnessed the whole thing: "..."
Seriously, she'd never seen such a scoundrel of a man.
She couldn't help but glance at him, and her eyes met Fu Jingheng's as he looked down at her. His dark eyes were filled with undisguised doting, reflecting a ring of light gold, like a sky full of stars falling, dazzling and radiant.
Qin Sheng paused, then slowly lowered her eyes, revealing a light pink hue on the tips of her ears hidden behind her long hair.
Fu Jingheng saw it, his eyes darkened, and his hand hanging at his side slowly tightened.
I want to pinch it.
I want to bite.
I want to...eat it.

After waiting for about an hour, the operating room door opened smoothly, and Director Liao came out first.
Although his face was mostly covered by a mask, Qin Zheng and the others were already relieved just by looking at the smile in his eyes.
However, she still quickly stepped forward and asked, "Director Liao, how is my father?"
Director Liao nodded, his voice still brimming with barely suppressed excitement: "The surgery was a great success. The patient's vital signs have stabilized. As long as no complications arise in the next few days, everything will be fine."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're alright."
Then she quickly thanked the doctor.
Dr. Liao waved his hand repeatedly, about to say that it was all thanks to Chairman Xi for finding the hidden lesion that they were able to clean it in time, thus saving the patient's life. This was all thanks to Miss Qin.
But when he looked up, he met the girl's cool gaze, and the words he was about to say stopped, turning into: "This is what I should do."
Qin Yu was still in the ward waiting for the observation period to end, and no one seemed inclined to leave. They pulled Director Liao aside and asked about the things to pay attention to afterward and the cause of Qin Yu's illness.
Director Liao pondered for a moment: "According to my diagnosis, the patient must have experienced a great shock that caused his blood pressure to spike, which led to the cerebral hemorrhage. I wonder where the patient was when the accident happened, and who else was nearby?"
Everyone looked at Wang Shujun.
Wang Shujun looked puzzled: "He was alone in the study at the time. I didn't hear him talking on the phone or arguing with anyone. It was Xiao Li who heard the sound of the floor being hit and went to check on the situation, only to find that the old man had a seizure."
This is really confusing.
Qin Zheng pondered for a moment, then, as if remembering something, took out his phone and made a call: "Shi An, where are you?"
Qin Shi'an checked the navigation: "We'll be at the hospital in about ten minutes."
Qin Zheng: "Your grandfather is out of danger. There's no rush at the hospital. Go home first and check your grandfather's study to see if there's anything wrong."
He paused, then added, "Mainly check the computer."
Qin Shi'an tightened his grip on the steering wheel: "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Zheng thanked Director Liao again and said, "Dr. Liao, I wonder if you have time later to observe my father for a few more days?"
Director Liao was very easy to talk to: "No problem, no problem. Since these patients came from my care, I will of course take full responsibility. You can contact me anytime. By the way, this is my personal phone number. If I am not at the hospital, just call me and I will come over as soon as possible."
The doctors' subordinates were all bewildered: "???"
How could they not know that the director had a habit of taking full responsibility for the patients he treated?
They even gave out their private phone numbers?
But I can understand it.
After all, there were people in the patient's family who knew Boss Xi. Just for that reason alone, Dr. Liao deserved to treat them with utmost care, not to mention...
The doctors, who had also been called in at the last minute, glanced discreetly at the man at the back of the crowd and exchanged unreadable glances.
Just then, a surprised female voice rang out.
Then Qin Yanshu walked out from the crowd, looking at Director Liao with a hint of expectation, and said, "Excuse me, but the doctor just said that you went to Tiandu to attend a medical conference. I wonder why you suddenly came back?"
Director Liao recognized the girl; she was the one who had tried to slap someone at the slightest provocation. Director Liao didn't have a good impression of her, but after a pause, she still answered, "I was asked to do this."
Qin Yanshu's eyes lit up instantly, and she asked, "Do you know Ren Changtian?"
"Ren Changtian?" Director Liao paused for a moment, then nodded. "My cousin. What, you know him?"
really!
Qin Yanshu's lips curled up involuntarily, but thinking of all the people watching, she tried to suppress her smile and nodded slightly, saying, "Ren is a classmate from the class next to mine. We're also in the same club and are friends."
Then, she looked embarrassed and said, "I ran into Ren when I left school and casually mentioned my grandfather's illness. I didn't expect him to contact you immediately, which made you come all this way and even miss the medical conference. I'm so sorry."
