Chapter 497: Chapter 497: President Lu Pursues to the Hospital
Qiao Yin gave a small laugh, “The treatment is showing satisfactory results. His consciousness will return a bit more in a few days, and his movements will become more pronounced. Once his consciousness reaches a critical threshold, he’ll wake up fully.”
Song Zhu looked at her with some admiration.
In the past, he had doubted her claim that she could treat people in vegetative states. It wasn’t until he saw the patient’s improvement with his own eyes that he truly believed in her capabilities.
But alongside his admiration, his eyes also held sentiment of affection, hesitation, and more.
He was torn between pursuing her or not.
Qiao Yin, obviously oblivious to his internal struggle, was finding the treatment of patient 505 smoother than expected. This lifted her spirits a bit.
She spoke in hushed tones with the nurse as they headed towards room 517.
However, there was no sign of improvement in the condition of the patient in room 517, even as Qiao Yin adjusted her treatment plan. He was just as he had been before.
But this did not discourage Qiao Yin. On the contrary, these complex cases were what inspired her fighting spirit. They drove her to delve deeper into the condition, to read a multitude of medical literature, constantly refining and improving her knowledge and skills.
By the time she finished treating both patients, it was nearly eleven o’clock.
Qiao Yin was truly feeling tired this time around. Working a whole day treating patients, even her sturdy constitution was being taxed by the strain.
Noticing her fatigue, Song Zhu proposed, “Doctor Qiao, let me drive you home.”
Qiao Yin shook her head, “No need. I drove here. I will drive myself home later. It’s getting late, Doctor Song, you should go home as well.”
Song Zhu could not press further, but he still escorted her out of the hospital lobby and to her car.
Next to her Porsche, there was another black car.
Upon seeing this car, Qiao Yin was equally surprised and puzzled.
This was Lu Lingche’s Maybach. Why was it here? Shouldn’t the groom be with his bride?
Moreover, how did he know she was at Shensong Hospital?
As she gazed in surprise, the door of the Maybach opened. Lu Lingche, dressed in a black suit, stepped out of the car.
This was the second time Song Zhu had seen Lu Lingche. Lingche’s presence seemed more oppressive this time around.
It was clear he was here to see Qiao Yin.
But why would he want to see his ex-wife? Hadn’t he just had a grand wedding with another woman today?
Moreover, that woman was heavily pregnant when they got married.
Fearing that Lu Lingche might say something hurtful again, Qiao Yin quickly told Song Zhu, “Doctor Song, you should leave first. You’ve had a long day, too.”
Song Zhu didn’t want to leave. Bearing in mind that they were already divorced and Lu Lingche was remarried, he had no right to have any hold over Qiao Yin.
He wanted to pursue Qiao Yin. This was not a time to back down.
He whispered, “Doctor Qiao, I can stay with you. President Lu—”
Before he could finish speaking, Qiao Yin cut him off, “There’s no need for you to stay. Really. You should leave. President Lu and I need to have a private chat.”
At this point, Song Zhu couldn’t justify staying any longer.
All he could do was clench his fists and walk away, step by step.
As he got further away, he looked back to see Lu Lingche grabbing Qiao Yin’s hand and pulling her towards his car.
Qiao Yin was struggling, refusing to get into the car. To his horror, Lu Lingche simply lifted her up and threw her into the car.
Song Zhu was shocked!
Lu Lingche was being so dominant, outright abducting someone?!
Should he go back and save Qiao Yin?
