Jian Zhizhen and Qin Yubai exchanged a glance and silently conveyed their feelings.
Then Jian Zhizhen went to the doctor and played the good cop: "Doctor, we miscalculated our assets, it was really our fault. We still have 38,000 yuan on us, we hope you can be lenient in treating the patient, and I will make up the difference next time we come."
Qin Yubai played along, saying coldly, "You can save me or not, it's up to you. If you don't save me, you won't even get the 38,000. You can go livestream your childbirth next door, but there are so many people there, you won't get much."
The doctor hesitated for a few seconds, thinking, "I can't really not make a single penny."
He had no choice but to go along with Jian Zhizhen's suggestion: "Alright, then you can return it to me next time you come for treatment."
Jian Zhizhen nodded: "Doctor, if you are good at medicine, I will often seek your treatment in the future."
These words were a veiled compliment, but also an encouragement for him to do his best to save people.
The doctor smiled confidently and went back to save the patient.
Jian Zhizhen reached out and tugged at Qin Yubai's sleeve on the left, then at Lin Yi's sleeve on the right, signaling them to come further away to talk to her.
Without Jian Zhizhen having to say anything, the two men left with her, their tacit understanding bordering on that of a family.
Lin Yunfei stared at them with wide eyes, instinctively wanting to follow, but Xu Qiuyuan grabbed her arm.
Xu Qiuyuan kindly reminded you, "They didn't even call you. It's impolite of you to go over and eavesdrop."
Lin Yunfei gave her a cold glance: "My brother's business is my business."
Xu Qiuyuan said with a smile, "Then you can wait for your brother to come back and ask him alone. Or are you afraid that your brother doesn't consider you family and won't tell you later?"
"Let me go!" Lin Yunfei shouted in desperation, her eyes flashing with a ferocious glint as she looked back at Xu Qiuyuan.
Not only was Xu Qiuyuan startled, but the viewers of "Love Across Worlds" were also taken aback:
[Yu Luo: Oh my god, how could Lin Yunfei be like this... She used to be so gentle and pure in my eyes, practically flawless. But now... the contrast is too great, it's startling me.]
[Little Grass: She said she would give all 30,000 yuan to the collective, but she didn't even discuss it with them before spending it all herself. That alone is enough to make me lose interest in her...]
[My beloved concubine: Don't try to morally blackmail me! That 30,000 was her earnings; whether she gives it to the collective or not is her prerogative!]
[Huai Xun: Whether or not to donate to the collective is indeed a matter of personal choice. But initially, she righteously claimed she felt guilty and donated all the money to the collective. After reaping the benefits of this reputation, she didn't donate a single penny to the collective and secretly spent it all herself. Isn't that fraudulent donation?]
Lin Yunfei was about to argue with Xu Qiuyuan, but Zhou Sui interrupted her as soon as she started: "Shh, don't argue. Keep quiet in the hospital. The people here have no manners, so we can't be no manners either."
[Wu Xian: Writer Zhou is absolutely right. Is this the kind of manners a movie star's daughter, this metaphysical girl, is expected to have, shouting and screaming in a hospital?]
Lin Yunfei took a deep breath and had no choice but to shut up to avoid being seen as rude in front of the guests.
She looked into the ward through the glass window.
Indeed, right now, she cares more about whether Zhai Qinghe can survive.
As for what Jian Zhizhen and Lin Yi said... she'll ask Lin Yi about it separately later.
...
In a corner, out of the earshot of others, Jian Zhizhen said to Lin Yi, "Director, this one treatment has used up all our savings. We really can't stay here any longer and waste our time."
Lin Yi nodded silently, his expression serious, agreeing with Jian Zhizhen's words.
There were no medical professionals in their group.
Chien Chih-chen only had a superficial understanding of medicine and pharmacy because he studied chemistry, and therefore dared not rashly attempt to save someone.
Qin Yubai agreed: "We have no choice but to go back ahead of schedule; lives are at stake."
Lin Yi had another worry. He glanced back at the ward and said, "But it will take several hours to transmit the data back. Can Zhai Qinghe hold on?"
Qin Yubai was blunt: "Staying here will only make it harder to hold on."
Chien Chih-chen echoed, "Every second wasted is an extra second of danger."
After much deliberation, Lin Yi also felt that nothing was more important than human life now.
He nodded and agreed: "I'll contact President Qiao first to report this."
He immediately called Qiao Peishi.
But then they discovered that they had lost contact with them and couldn't reach them no matter what they did.
However, he checked the device's frequency again and found that it was still connected normally, proving that they could still go back.
However, there is no way to report it now. If I force my way back and disrupt the program schedule again, I wonder if it will have a negative impact on the company?
...
Apple's backend.
Qiao Peishi, watching from in front of the screen, saw Lin Yi hesitate at the crucial moment, wanting to return. She anxiously shouted at the screen, "Come back! I've wanted you guys back for ages! If you come back, I won't blame you for interrupting the show, and I'll even give you a bonus! Nothing is more important than human life!"
Lin Qiao, standing to the side, also looked worried and sighed softly, "President Qiao, you don't need to shout anymore, they can't hear you."
Qiao Peishi certainly knew.
But there's no other way now, so I'll just shout it out to make myself feel better.
She slammed her hand on the table and continued to raise the stakes: "Lin Yi, if you bring all the guests back safely, I'll make you the vice president of Apple!"
...
Although Lin Yi couldn't hear these words, he and Qiao Peishi shared the same philosophy in making the program.
He hesitated for only a few seconds before making up his mind: "Go back!"
Even if it means losing your job and career if you go back, you must put human life first!
He said to Jian Zhizhen and Qin Yubai, "Let's discuss it with them. Some of us will go back to pack our bags, while others will stay here to watch over Zhai Qinghe. Then we'll all meet up at the hospital and send the message back."
So the three of them went back outside the operating room and told Lin Yunfei and the others about their current decision.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yunfei glanced at Zhai Qinghe on the hospital bed out of the corner of her eye, then smiled and agreed: "You all go back and pack your luggage. I'll stay here to protect her."
Jian Zhizhen glanced at Lin Yunfei silently, and without much thought, subconsciously rejected her suggestion: "It's better to leave more people here. Don't forget this isn't our time and space. People without basic morals are capable of anything. If something happens, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it alone."
Lin Yunfei was about to retort when she heard Lin Yi say, "Zhenzhen is right. It's not safe for you to stay here alone."
Lin Yunfei had no choice but to swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Lin Yi divided the group: he would take Jian Zhizhen and Qin Yubai back to pack their luggage.
The rest of the people stayed behind to protect Zhai Qinghe and prevent any unforeseen circumstances.
Guests who are not going back should list out the essential items they need to bring and ask Lin Yi and the other two to help them pack.
While Lin Yi was recording what the guests were going to bring, Jian Zhizhen pulled Xu Qiuyuan aside.
She whispered to Xu Qiuyuan, "Sister Qiuyuan, I suspect that Lin Yunfei deliberately drove Zhai Qinghe to her death."
