Nan Qingqing glanced at Nan Yu, and said deliberately, "Dad, I think Dr. Li is only saying those things to scare us because she’s afraid she won’t make as much money once we bring mom ho."
"Vice Chairman Gu is right by mom’s side now, how could anything possibly go wrong?"
Nan Bofu nodded in agreent, his eyes filled with disapproval as he looked at Nan Yu.
"Dr. Li, about what I just discussed with you, the job of treating my wife at the ancestral ho, could you accept it?"
"Don’t worry, the price will be double that of the hospital. As long as you can wake my wife up, you won’t be shortchanged."
At that mont, in Nan Bofu’s eyes, Nan Yu was just a young doctor reeking of greed, not the savior working hard to heal his wife.
Nan Yu saw the aning in his glance and a twinge of pain crossed the depths of her eyes.
"I..."
She had not yet begun to speak when Nan Zhuoyuan stepped forward to defend her.
"Dad, Dr. Li ca to treat mom’s illness without taking a di, she didn’t do it for money, she ca to heal mom. She is not at all like what Nan Qingqing described."
"Moreover, you are being too harsh. Dr. Li, as mom’s primary doctor, should have been consulted about mom’s discharge from the hospital, yet now you even verbally humiliate her."
"Dad, how could you beco like this?"
Nan Zhuoyuan’s eyes reddened with indignation for the wronged Nan Yu. He then stood up and approached her.
"Dr. Li, I apologize on behalf of my father. The Nan Family was at fault here. Now let take you to the ancestral ho where you can check on my mother’s condition and make sure there are no issues."
He still rembered the conversations about the wound rupturing and internal bleeding that Nan Yu had ntioned, and now he was worried that an accident might occur to his mother due to these conditions.
Nan Yu also understood the urgency of the situation. She caught a glimpse of Nan Qingqing, who was smirking and a hint of hatred solidified in her eyes.
She clenched her fists and looked at Nan Zhuoyuan, "Let’s go."
In three days, at that banquet, she would tear Nan Qingqing’s hypocritical mask to shreds!
Li Chongbai also stood up from his seat and followed the two out of the conference room.
Nan Bofu, left behind, paused his bead-turning hands and spoke, "Qingqing, let’s go take a look too."
Nan Qingqing’s dark eyes swirled with a sly glint.
"Okay, dad."
As Nan Bofu walked ahead, she intentionally lagged a step behind, quickly pulled out her phone, and sent a ssage to Gu Chuxin.
Then, in less than three seconds, she pocketed her phone and adopted an indifferent facade.
She quickened her pace to walk alongside Nan Bofu.
It wasn’t long before they caught up to the three waiting anxiously for the elevator.
Nan Zhuoyuan saw them approaching, deliberately diverted his gaze to avoid noticing Nan Bofu.
Nan Bofu, seeing his usually polite eldest son now in conflict with him over Dr. Li, felt an instant surge of increased dissatisfaction towards Dr. Li.
His face darkened as he grew even more supportive of Nan Qingqing’s previous assertion that Dr. Li was unreliable.
With Ah Zhu’s health much improved and Vice Chairman Gu fully confident in waking her, Dr. Li, unseen and unknown, surely seed unreliable.
Vice Chairman Gu, at least had the backing of the Traditional Chinese dicine Association, far more reliable than soone not fully vetted.
If Dr. Li had ill intentions, and she ran off, he wouldn’t even know how to find this Dr. Li.
Vice Chairman Gu was simply more suitable.
Once back at the ancestral ho, he decided it would be best to dismiss Dr. Li.
With his decision made, Nan Bofu didn’t spare another glance for Nan Yu.
Squeak—
The elevator doors opened.
Nan Bofu stepped forward, about to enter when he saw Nan Zhou, breathing heavily and sweating profusely, exclaim, "Dad, big brother, it’s bad, mom is vomiting blood non-stop!"
