Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Treating a Dead Horse as If It Were Alive

"Okay, which hospital? I’ll head over right now," Lan Jiaojiao said.

Xia Yanbing said, "City Renmin Hospital."

Qin Yi repeated it once again.

"Alright, see you in an hour." Lan Jiaojiao promptly hung up the phone.

Qin Yi said, "Miss Lan agreed, she’ll be at the hospital in an hour."

"Thank you!" Xia Yanbing gave Qin Yi a questioning look, "Are you close with Miss Lan?"

"Uh... what do you mean by close?"

Xia Yanbing said, "I feel like you speak quite casually with each other."

"Miss Lan is really nice, cheerful, and can chat with anyone; you’ll become good friends when you meet." Qin Yi explained with a smile.

Xia Yanbing’s beautiful eyes flickered, unsure whether she believed him or not.

"You’re coming with me to the hospital since Miss Lan is coming because of you."

Qin Yi nodded slightly.

On the way to the hospital, Qin Yi’s phone vibrated.

It was a message from Lan Jiaojiao: "Twenty million."

Qin Yi gritted his teeth, this woman was taking advantage of the situation.

"Ten million," Qin Yi bargained.

Lan Jiaojiao replied, "I’m turning back home now."

Qin Yi was furious, but he still gritted his teeth and transferred twenty million to Lan Jiaojiao.

Lin Hongzhuang, you owe me twenty million, Qin Yi thought to himself.

Qin Yi and Xia Yanbing arrived at the hospital first.

"Qin Yi, please get Miss Lan to help my dad." Lin Hongzhuang moved forward in a panic when she saw Qin Yi, her face full of pleading.

It was the first time Qin Yi had seen this domineering woman look so pitiful, her face pale.

"Don’t worry, Miss Lan is already on her way."

"Thank you, Qin Yi!" Lin Hongzhuang raised her hand, "I promise, I won’t bully you anymore in the future. I will definitely repay you."

Qin Yi smiled and said, "Don’t mention it, saving your uncle is what’s important now."

Soon, Lan Jiaojiao arrived.

Not only Lan Jiaojiao, but even Lan Wangxu came.

Lin Hongzhuang didn’t know Lan Wangxu but recognized Lan Jiaojiao, she hurried over, "Miss Lan, please save my dad, I’ll do anything you say."

Lan Jiaojiao had met Lin Hongzhuang once, this woman is Qin Yi’s wife’s best friend. She instinctively looked at Xia Yanbing, who indeed was very beautiful.

Lan Jiaojiao looked at Lan Wangxu beside her, "This is my grandfather!"

Xia Yanbing and Lin Hongzhuang were shocked, Lan Wangxu’s name was well-known, they didn’t expect him to come?

"Hello, Blue Elder!"

The two girls quickly greeted.

Lan Wangxu waved his hand, "I’ve already informed the hospital, I’ll go in and check the situation shortly."

"Thank you, Blue Elder, thank you so much..." Lin Hongzhuang was full of gratitude, not expecting Lan Wangxu to personally take action.

Lan Wangxu smiled.

As they were talking, a group of people walked over.

Leading them was the director of Renmin Hospital, Li Miaoxin.

"Blue Elder," Director Li greeted respectfully.

Lan Wangxu was very prestigious; even Li Miaoxin couldn’t put on a show in front of him. Having him here to treat someone was an honor for the hospital and for him as director.

Blue Elder didn’t exchange many pleasantries, he just put on sterile protective clothing and entered the intensive care unit.

Lin Hongzhuang was extremely tense.

Lan Jiaojiao said, "Don’t worry, with my grandfather’s help, your father will definitely be fine."

Lin Hongzhuang gratefully nodded, "Thank you, Miss Lan."

"Thank Qin Yi instead; if it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be here," Lan Jiaojiao said.

Qin Yi smiled wryly, this woman really shouldn’t talk when she can’t converse properly. Why drag him into this?

Xia Yanbing glanced at Qin Yi and said, "I also want to thank Miss Lan for treating Qin Yi. Originally, I planned to ask Qin Yi to invite you over so we could thank you properly, didn’t expect to meet under these circumstances."

"Tsk tsk..." Lan Jiaojiao suddenly chuckled mischievously twice.

Xia Yanbing looked at her puzzledly, full of confusion.

Lan Jiaojiao laughed, "I’ve heard Miss Xia is as beautiful as a celestial being, and now that I see you, it’s truly not just a rumor."

Xia Yanbing was slightly stunned, then smiled, "Miss Lan, you’re too kind. In terms of appearance, Miss Lan is no less than I am."

This wasn’t exaggerating; Lan Jiaojiao indeed was very beautiful, but she lacked a touch of feminine frailty, possessing instead a kind of heroic and valiant beauty.

Lan Jiaojiao laughed, "Actually, I’m curious about something."

"Curious about what?" Xia Yanbing asked.

"Miss Xia, you are so beautiful; both your looks and abilities are top-notch. How did you take a liking to him?" Lan Jiaojiao pointed at Qin Yi, her smile full of mockery.

Qin Yi grimaced, damn it... why can’t Xia Yanbing like me?

Xia Yanbing was slightly surprised and smiled, "It’s destiny!"

"Hmm, right, besides destiny, who else would fancy him?" Lan Jiaojiao nodded in agreement, then turned to Qin Yi, "You really struck it lucky."

Qin Yi kept a straight face, pretending not to listen.

Xia Yanbing’s eyes held a peculiar look, Lan Jiaojiao’s words seemed disdainful of Qin Yi. Yet, when they had spoken on the phone earlier, it wasn’t like this?

Trying to hide the truth.

These four words suddenly popped into Xia Yanbing’s mind.

"Miss Lan, didn’t you unconditionally help Qin Yi with his treatment?" Xia Yanbing said with a smile.

Lan Jiaojiao was slightly taken aback, a playful smile appearing on her lips, "He’s my guinea pig, we mutually benefit, that’s all."

Xia Yanbing’s smile slowly faded, "Miss Lan, are you using a living person for experiments?"

"Not really, it’s more like a challenge, treating a dead horse as if it were alive."

Qin Yi felt fury surging within him, damn it, am I the dead horse?

Xia Yanbing’s tone turned cold, "You can’t keep treating Qin Yi for free. Later on, I’ll pay the medical fees."

Though she didn’t love Qin Yi, he was still her husband, and she didn’t want anyone using Qin Yi as a guinea pig.

Lan Jiaojiao looked at Xia Yanbing with a playful gaze, "I’m afraid you can’t afford my fees."

Xia Yanbing’s eyes turned slightly cold, "If it really works, I’ll pay whatever the cost."

Qin Yi felt the atmosphere was off; he sensed tension and quickly said, "Miss Lan, thank you for your help."

"You’re welcome; aren’t we friends?" Lan Jiaojiao teased mischievously.

Xia Yanbing fell silent. How strange, why did she feel a sudden discomfort seeing Lan Jiaojiao and Qin Yi talk?

Soon, Lan Wangxu came out.

Lin Hongzhuang quickly stepped forward, "Blue Elder, how’s my dad?"

Lan Wangxu’s face was somber, gently shaking his head, "Forgive my lack of medical skills, your father’s condition is severe. Although I’ve managed to stabilize his life temporarily with acupuncture, I can’t say when he might wake up."

Lin Hongzhuang and her mother’s faces turned deathly pale.

Xia Yanbing supported Lin Hongzhuang, anxiously saying, "Blue Elder, your medical skills are unmatched, is there truly no way?"

Lan Wangxu sighed, "The patient already had a cerebral hemorrhage, plus the brain suffered a severe injury, making it very complicated. After all, I’m human, not God, my abilities are limited, truly sorry!"
