Mu Ni Hong was afraid that Chen Xiao would refuse her outright, so as soon as she spoke, she added with trepidation, "Dr. Chen, as long as you let my son off the hook and forget past grievances, I will do my best to satisfy any compensation you require."
Chen Xiao remained unmoved, his tone gradually shifting from icy cold to mocking, "Ms. Mu, you've come to the wrong person. I'm just an unknown doctor. What can I do to the esteemed Young Master Ye Tian of the Ye family?"
"You..." Mu Ni Hong struggled to suppress the urge to curse at any moment. "Dr. Chen, as the saying goes, 'where there is mercy, there is mercy.' I've personally called to beg you. Don't be ungrateful..."
Chen Xiao frowned slightly and hung up the phone without hesitation.
"Bastard!" Mu Ni Hong exploded on the spot, about to smash her phone.
Beside her, the sharp-eared butler, Mu Shen, rushed to stop her in a panic and then nervously asked, "Miss, did I just hear you say the person who caused Young Master Tian to be imprisoned is named Chen Xiao?"
Mu Shen was a trusted aide brought from Mu Ni Hong's family when she married into the Ye family. He was deeply trusted by Mu Ni Hong.
Mu Ni Hong gritted her teeth and nodded, "I don't know why a mere doctor from Central Hospital has the qualification to treat the Dragon King. Qing Tian just went to the hospital to teach him a lesson, and inexplicably, he was charged with severely interfering with the Dragon King's medical treatment."
Mu Shen became even more certain of his suspicions. He cautiously leaned in and whispered to Mu Ni Hong, "Miss, I don't think the information provided by Ye Jin Huan is necessarily false. Based on my analysis, that Chen Xiao might indeed be the Dragon King's doctor!"
Compared to the sparsely populated Song family, the Ye family, though seemingly prosperous and thriving, was rife with internal strife. Li Xin was the spy Mu Shen had secretly placed by Ye Jin Huan's side. It was no wonder that a gambler with no diploma or ability could become the new marketing director of Cai Cai Zi Sushi.
After Li Xin anonymously posted exposés online, it was Mu Shen who secretly paid for water armies and traffic to create trending topics. He also arranged for over a dozen trustworthy bodyguards to assist Li Xin, attempting to use this opportunity to completely bring down Song Yan, and then have Mu Ni Hong and Ye Qing Tian, mother and son, claim credit from Old Master Ye, thereby seizing power and profit from Ye Jin Huan.
However, the dozen or so bodyguards who accompanied Li Xin to Central Hospital had recently sent back a message saying that the tall woman Li Xin had exposed was actually legally armed. Mu Shen was terrified at the time and quickly used all his means to erase any trace of his involvement in helping Li Xin. Even now, he still felt a chill down his spine.
Fearing that Mu Ni Hong and Ye Qing Tian might offend Chen Xiao and bring disaster upon him, he paused and then nervously urged Mu Ni Hong, "Miss, don't hesitate any longer. Hurry and beg Dr. Chen yourself. If this matter is not handled properly, both the Mu family and the Ye family will be finished!"
"Is... is it really that serious?" Mu Ni Hong felt her brain explode with a "boom." Her fleshy face instantly turned pale. She frantically pulled out the IV needle from her arm, sprang up, and rushed to the door. Then, she suddenly fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, convulsing uncontrollably, and soon her eyes rolled back, and she lost consciousness.
"Ah! Miss—" Mu Shen shouted and immediately arranged for personnel to rush Mu Ni Hong to Central Hospital.
...
After Chen Xiao hung up Mu Ni Hong's call, his work was completely undisturbed. He sat at his desk, diligently writing Su Shan's medical records. All the doctors and nurses in the office were afraid of him and scurvily slipped away, except for Yang Long Jian, who chattered incessantly, insisting on following him.
"Dr. Chen, I sincerely want to follow you. I don't need you to teach me how to shoot, but I want you to teach me the hacker skills to delete posts online and remotely delete phone data..."
Chen Xiao stopped writing and explained with a wry smile, "Dr. Yang, the posts online are all rumors. I am definitely not the kind of foreign terrorist you imagine. If you don't believe me, go ask the patient named Su Shan."
"I don't believe you!" Yang Long Jian ignored everything else and knelt beside Chen Xiao's desk with a thud, his tone resolute, "Dr. Chen, if you don't take me in, I will kneel here forever!"
Chen Xiao was annoyed and finally cursed with a dark face, "Get out immediately, or I'll shoot you!"
"Ah—" Yang Long Jian was indeed scared. He yelled, covering his head, and fled.
Chen Xiao was happy to have peace and quiet and continued writing his medical records.
After an unknown amount of time, Yang Long Jian suddenly burst through the door again and said fearfully, "Dr... Dr. Chen, a new emergency patient with acute heart disease has arrived. They are still in a coma, and their vital signs are not optimistic. The patient's family specifically requested you to be the attending physician, and Director Gou has also agreed. Please hurry to the emergency room."
Life was at stake. Chen Xiao, without a second thought, rushed out of the room with Yang Long Jian.
