Chapter 297: The Fence-Sitter

Doctor Chen was still taking the old master’s pulse.

“So, how is this old gentleman doing now?” Lin Qingxiu asked.

Doctor Chen remained furrowed brows, looking extremely serious.

Lin Qingxiu, upon seeing Doctor Chen’s expression, already knew that the situation with the old master wasn’t good.

She finally felt completely relieved.

This time, she could drag Brother Lin Xuan into being her scapegoat.

Another minute passed, and Doctor Chen let go of the old master’s hand, looking at Lin Xuan with excitement.

Lin Qingxiu frowned.

Why did she feel something was off about Doctor Chen’s gaze… Shouldn’t his eyes be full of anger?

Could it be…

That this elder was actually saved by Lin Xuan?

How could that possibly be?

Lin Xuan was just a computer science student who had never touched medicine; how could he have such skills?

Lin Qingxiu didn’t believe Lin Xuan had such abilities, but Doctor Chen’s expression made her heart uneasy.

“Doctor Chen, how is the Master?” the bodyguard pressed.

Doctor Chen replied with a smile, “He’s completely out of danger now. There’s no need to go to the hospital. He’s still unconscious, but you can take him home later. A period of rest will do.”

The bodyguard sighed in relief.

For Lin Qingxiu, Doctor Chen’s words were like a thunderclap on a clear day.

She stood there stunned, her face gradually turning pale.

It was really cured by Lin Xuan…

“How is this possible?”

“This can’t be possible!”

Lin Qingxiu kept shaking her head, muttering to herself.

If even she couldn’t do it, how did Lin Xuan manage?

Fake!

All of this was fake!

No, this isn’t the Lin Xuan she knows!

A passerby who sways with the wind couldn’t help but praise, “This is truly impressive! Who would’ve thought the illness that even Doctor Chen couldn’t handle was cured by him.”

“A senior year student can be this amazing—truly young and talented.”

“One causing severe harm, the other pulling someone back from d*ath’s door, and yet this Lin Qingxiu has the nerve to criticize the young man.”

“What kind of quack exists in Cloud City’s Second Hospital? If other doctors are like her, minor illnesses might turn into major ones under her care. Then where would we go to complain?”

“Snap!”

“Snap!”

Journalists were wildly recording videos of Lin Qingxiu and Lin Xuan.

This series of twists was incredibly dramatic.

The heiress of Starlight Group, the doctor at Cloud City’s Second Hospital, initially mocked and belittled her own younger brother.

Thinking she could cure him, she grandly announced it to the crowd.

In the end, the person wasn’t that ill, but she nearly pushed them to life-threatening conditions.

On the contrary, her mocked younger brother brought him back.

Even more dramatically, this younger brother had severed ties with their family.

Isn’t this like a novel coming to life?

Such dramatic events would surely explode online!

This wave of traffic was secure!

“Lin Qingxiu, resign! Get out of the medical field!”

Someone shouted loudly, and others quickly joined in.

“Get out of the medical field!”

“Get out of the medical field!”

“Get out of the medical field!”

Each shout louder than the last.

Lin Qingxiu’s eyes reddened; she had always been outstanding, constantly praised, never receiving such criticism.

She couldn’t bear it.

She felt like she’d lost all face.

She glared fiercely at Lin Xuan before lowering her head and squeezing through the crowd.

“Young sir.” Doctor Chen excitedly gripped Lin Xuan’s hand. “Thank you so much this time.”

Lin Xuan nodded, “As long as he’s fine, that’s all that matters.”

“Young sir, what’s your name?” Doctor Chen asked with a smile.

He thought he could contact him more often in the future.

If his medical skills surpassed his own, he could seek advice.

If they were average, then he could take him as a student.

He had always wanted a student, but those people didn’t catch his eye.

This young man fit perfectly.

Lin Xuan said, “Forget the name. Just send him home quickly. I’m going to buy groceries for my girlfriend.”

Doctor Chen appreciated Lin Xuan even more.

Neither humble nor arrogant.

There weren’t many young people like this anymore.

It was a pity that he already had a girlfriend; he was thinking of introducing his daughter to him.

Lin Xuan wasn’t doing good deeds anonymously either. If the Jiang family wanted to thank him and cure the old master’s illness, they would definitely come knocking.

Lin Xuan entered the supermarket and continued buying groceries to cook for Su Hua.

Lin Qingxiu returned to the Lin residence in a daze.

Jiang Shuqin, who was applying a facial mask, frowned and asked, “Xiu’er, why does your face look so bad? What happened?”

“It’s nothing, I’m just a bit tired. Resting for a while will be fine,” Lin Qingxiu shook her head.

“Then go get some good sleep.”

“Okay.”

Lin Qingxiu nodded.

Back in her room, Lin Qingxiu sat on the sofa with a pale face.

This incident would definitely blow up online. What should she do?

Money…

Yes!

She needed to use money to silence those platforms so it wouldn’t affect her or the company.

Lin Qingxiu hurriedly contacted Weibo, Tieba, and another one, Tiger Sound.

Lin Qingxiu tightly gripped her phone.

This was a company-owned app by Lin Xuan. He’d want everyone to know about this matter.

There was no way he’d help her…

Downstairs.

Jiang Shuqin started having headaches again, took some medicine, and swallowed it down with water.

Whenever she closed her eyes, she saw her beloved husband and best friend talking while rolling around in bed.

And Lin Chang protecting that despicable woman, Wang Yajun.

Jiang Shuqin clutched her chest, feeling pain.

Now Lin Chang no longer pretended to be affectionate with her and often didn’t return home.

Jiang Shuqin blamed Lin Xuan in her heart.

If it weren’t for Lin Xuan exposing everything, she wouldn’t have known about Lin Chang’s infidelity, and she would still be happy.

The master was right; Lin Xuan was a calamity star, destined to stir up trouble in this household.

—

Su Hua was sitting leisurely on the main seat drinking tea, but her expression was not good.

It had been over three hours since Ah Xuan called her, and he hadn’t contacted her yet…

For so long, Ah Xuan hasn’t reached out…

Jiang approached and glanced at Su Hua’s expression.

Su Zong looked increasingly upset.

But it wasn’t a big problem.

Shen Qianqian was ready to vent her anger, and Young Master Lin was the ultimate trump card.

“Su Zong,” Jiang respectfully said, “Just now Butler Wang mentioned that Young Master Lin went out to buy groceries for you. It seems Young Master Lin is going to personally cook for you.”

“Hmm.”

All the malevolence disappeared from Su Hua’s demeanor.

Her lips slightly curved.

She loved the food cooked by Ah Xuan.

Looks like she should go home early today.

Jiang wore an expression of “I knew it.” She knew telling Su Zong that Young Master Lin was personally cooking would work.

“Su Zong, also, Shen Qianqian has fainted,” Jiang reported.

Su Hua narrowed her eyes, “Splash some icy water on her to wake her up, then bring her over.”

“Yes.”
