A woman of similar age to Hu Xinyi, with well-grood short hair and a sowhat androgynous face, yet possessing an enticing beauty!
However, her gaze was sharp and made Lin Jie avoid direct eye contact!
"Oh... isn't this Han Xue, who was chased abroad by her own brother?"
Hu Xinyi, though smiling, had a rather unfriendly tone, "Have you made up your mind to co back and fight your brother for the inheritance?"
Han Xue snorted coldly and disdainfully said, "This is our family matter, no need for you to concern yourself!"
"You'd better worry about yourself instead. I've heard that Hu Yuanqing is performing increasingly well. Who will ultimately beco the director of Kangning Hospital is still uncertain!"
As soon as these words ca out, Lin Jie's face changed slightly.
He glanced at Hu Xinyi, realizing there was such a significant conflict of interest between her and Hu Yuanqing.
Lin Jie pondered, deciding to be cautious in future interactions with the Hu Family people, to avoid inadvertently getting involved in their conflicts.
Hu Xinyi's face showed anger, but before she could retort, Han Xue spoke again, "Hu Xinyi, I ca here specifically to warn you, now that I'm back, you should give up on your little sches!"
"Texting and calling every day, inviting him for als, don't you have any sense of modesty as a young lady?"
Hu Xinyi, however, was not angry, she smiled brightly and said, "He is unmarried, I am unmarried, and he's so outstanding, why shouldn't I take the initiative to pursue him?"
"Isn't that right, Qiuhua?"
Everyone followed Hu Xinyi's gaze to look behind Han Xue!
There ca a tall, handso man.
Lin Jie happened to know this person, it was the eligible bachelor Dr. Chen Qiuhua, who was responsible for his follow-up treatnt after his heart transplant at Binhai Tongren Hospital.
Chen Qiuhua, who was asked, showed a face of embarrassnt!
He regretted coming over rashly without understanding the situation.
Facing everyone's attention, he averted his gaze slightly but saw Lin Jie.
After a mont of surprise, Chen Qiuhua imdiately walked over to Lin Jie and asked with concern, "Didn't expect to et you here! I'm sorry, I'm powerless about that matter!"
"How are you feeling now?"
"Is there any discomfort in your body?"
"Have you been taking the anti-rejection dications on ti..."
While asking, Chen Qiuhua took Lin Jie's pulse, appearing very concerned.
Faced with Dr. Chen's concern, Lin Jie didn't feel much happiness, clearly, he was being used as a distraction, not genuinely concerned!
"The pulse is strong, and the heart rate is in the ideal range, it seems you're recovering well, now I'm relieved!"
Chen Qiuhua showed a look of relief and then turned to Han Xue and said, "He's the heart transplant patient I ntioned to you, later driven out of the hospital by your brother!"
Han Xue looked at Lin Jie, said calmly, "I apologize on behalf of my brother for his actions. As compensation, Tongren Hospital will provide you with free treatnt should you have any future discomfort!"
With that, she softly said, "Qiuhua, I suddenly don't want to eat Western food anymore, let's change restaurants!"
Without daring to look at Hu Xinyi, Chen Qiuhua imdiately agreed, "Sure, I know a place with good local cuisine, let's go there!"
As Han Xue and Chen Qiuhua left, Hu Xinyi also left the restaurant, face sullen.
Lin Jie and Zhou Ke looked at each other, just as the lunch they ordered was served, and they began to eat.
"Zhou Ke, do you know what the race for the director at Kangning Hospital is all about?" Lin Jie asked casually!
Zhou Ke took a sip of cold water and said, "I heard my boyfriend ntion it once, the Hu Family is a family of doctors, and the old man of the family set a rule that only the one with the best dical skills has the right to be the director of Kangning Hospital."
After saying this, she lowered her voice and said enthusiastically, "Do you know? Han Xue is the daughter of the Han Group's forr chairman who recently passed away, she also has a half-brother."
"It is said that as soon as the old chairman passed away, her brother took all the inheritance and sent Han Xue abroad. There are rumors that the old chairman's death was also sowhat suspicious!"
Lin Jie was a bit stunned, so Han Wenbin is Han Xue's brother, and these rumors about high society figures are so reckless!
These unconfird rumors are best not to listen to, to avoid any trouble from speaking out, he changed the topic, asking, "Do you know the relationship between Han Xue, Hu Xinyi, and later Dr. Chen Qiuhua?"
Zhou Ke's eyes brightened, yet she slowly shook her head, saying, "I don't know! I'll ask my boyfriend at dinner ti, he might know so inside information!"
They chatted about so gossip and interesting stories, finished their lunch, and then parted ways.
On the subway ride ho, Lin Jie suddenly received a call from his neighbor Kong Mingqing.
"A-Jie, my buddy at the municipal bureau told that regarding Mr. Song's report, the bureau decided not to file a case, explaining that it was an ergency response at the ti and did not violate any criminal law clauses!"
"I also contacted a friend at the court, he told that the court also rejected Mr. Song's criminal lawsuit after discussion and investigation."
"I thought you might be concerned about this, so I'm telling you right away!"
Hearing this news, Lin Jie was indeed happy.
At this mont, Shen Lanruo's voice suddenly ca, "Lin Jie, don't be happy too soon! Your neighbor just said the criminal lawsuit request was dismissed, but there is still a civil compensation lawsuit!"
Lin Jie was stunned and imdiately asked over the phone, "Brother Kong, thanks for the news! Has a civil compensation lawsuit been filed by the other party?"
"There is indeed one!"
Kong Mingqing's answer made Lin Jie's heart sink, and he continued to hear Kong Mingqing say, "A friend at the court disclosed that due to the huge public reaction, to avoid setting a bad moral example, diation departnts from the court and so governnt sectors have already intervened!"
"The rescued girl's father also expressed willingness to make certain compensation to Mr. Song. I guess a private settlent will soon be reached."
Saying this, Kong Mingqing also consoled through the phone, "A-Jie, rest assured, I've consulted more than one legal expert, and regardless of the result, you are a heroic helper and won't be implicated in any way."
But Lin Jie felt uncomfortable, venting, "This all started because of , if I hadn't rushed to save people, wouldn't things be different now?"
"If Mr. Song can get compensation because his son wasn't saved, then can I, who saved the injured's life, demand a large rescue fee from those I saved?"
"This... this..."
Kong Mingqing hesitated on the phone for a mont and cautiously said, "I can consult legal experts for you, ask about this rescue fee issue!"
Lin Jie chuckled, laughing, "Brother Kong, I was just joking in anger, don't take it seriously! Also, thanks for informing promptly."
"Hehe, I naturally know you were joking, just playing along!"
Kong Mingqing sighed over the phone, lanting, "Just like the frequent cases of fraud nowadays, extortion after the elderly fall, and no one daring to help, I don't understand how society has beco like this."
"There's no need to be so formal with , and if there's any more news, I'll let you know first!"
