A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce - Chapter 683

Chapter 683: Chapter 682: Old Dong isn’t ill, he’s contracted a virus

“I’ll think about the Qian family’s matter and get back to you later. Please convey my thanks to Old Qian for taking care of Wen Huai all these years. Once I’ve made up my mind, I’ll personally visit to express my gratitude.”

Wen Xin had also been thinking in the car. If those people really came to Beijing for her parents and then chose to retire, she indeed had a responsibility to bring them back out and give them an explanation.

As for the other matters, she needed to think them over carefully, especially the private grievances between the Qian and Mu families. She certainly didn’t want to get involved in handling those absurd issues.

“Wait a moment… I heard that your great-grandfather and Master Xi’s great-grandfather…”

Wen Xin pondered this and suddenly felt that some things were unrealistic. If the Qian family had indeed come over for her parents, then history couldn’t have been that ancient…

“That matter is false… But the discord between the ancestors of the Qian and Mu families is true, and only the ancestors themselves know the specifics. We don’t understand them.”

“The origin of the ancient martial arts families is in Beijing. Later, due to some serendipity, they moved to the Independent State, and then Mr. Wen brought them back to Beijing.”

“Therefore, there have always been legends of ancient martial arts families in Beijing. Not knowing about them always gives people a sense of mystery yet familiarity.”

This matter was too complex for Wen Xin; she did not want to delve into the history of the ancient martial arts families. Now she only knew that she might have more contact with this person she disliked in the future. She just didn’t know how Mu Chengxi would feel when he found out.

“I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t talk much. I’ll be going now.”

Wen Xin saw Ma Wenyuan’s car and also caught sight of Sun Ning getting out of the car reluctantly. She quickly walked over, feeling that without her prompting, Sun Ning would likely slack off,

Qian Meng watched Wen Xin’s departing figure, momentarily dazed. He never dared to dream that the girl of his youthful dreams would turn out to be the very girl before him.

And that girl was also his love at first sight ideal.

But in the end, it was all a dream. She had her own lover…

After casually greeting Ma Wenyuan, Wen Xin’s gaze fell on Sun Ning, observing his empty hands, her eyebrows lightly furrowing, “As a doctor, you don’t bring anything with you?”

“What should I bring? What equipment does the hospital lack? Do you really expect a doctor to bring his own equipment? Miss, you do have a sense of humor.”

Sun Ning answered reluctantly. At this time, he should have been in an external laboratory analyzing his data, but now he was dragged here under threat to fill the ranks, and he was very unhappy about it.

Wen Xin glanced at Sun Ning and didn’t want to waste words with him. She followed Ma Wenyuan into the hospital to check on Old Dong’s condition.

The moment they entered Old Dong’s ward, Sun Ning pulled Wen Xin out of the room, making a gesture to her to keep quiet.

“The person on that bed doesn’t have an ordinary illness. The symptoms he’s showing now are of the ψ virus, but you don’t have to worry, this virus can only be transmitted through injection, it won’t spread through other means!”

Sun Ning deliberately lowered his voice so that only Wen Xin could hear him speaking.

Wen Xin’s eyes widened in shock, looking through the window at Old Dong’s condition on the bed, his cyanotic skin indeed looked very abnormal.

“Do you have a way to deal with it?”

Wen Xin was surprised; she hadn’t expected Sun Ning to have such a thorough understanding of the Independent State’s viruses. She couldn’t help but look at Sun Ning seriously, feeling that there were too many unfathomable secrets about him.

“There is a way, but I need to make a trip to the Independent State. You know it’s not very convenient to return to the Independent State right now, I can’t be sure if I can come back smoothly once I leave, and the time is quite tight as well.”

Sun Ning leaned against the wall, stroking his chin in thought, considering how he could move freely in and out of the Independent State. The risk this time was somewhat high and there wasn’t much time.

“What about entering the Independent State through the Medical Organization from M State? I can arrange for someone to take you in.”

Watching Sun Ning seriously pondering, Wen Xin felt that the only viable path was through the Medical Organization, given the collaborative relationship between the medical research institutes of the Independent State and M State.

“No need, I’ll figure out my own way. Give me three days, and I’m sure I can get my hands on that injection.”

At this point, Sun Ning seemed to have come up with a method. He stood up straight, twisted open the door to the ward, pulled a stethoscope out of the pocket of his coat, and began to check on Old Dong, determining the extent of the virus’ invasion into his body.

Wen Xin leaned lazily against the door, with no intention of stepping forward to help check Old Dong’s condition. She did not want to take over the patient and felt there was no need to add to the confusion.

Just as Wen Xin was about to step out of the ward to send a message to Mu Chengxi, she saw Ling Yichen hurriedly entering from outside in the distance. Her eyebrows involuntarily furrowed, and she put her phone back into her pocket.

“Why are you here?”

“Why are you here?”

Both asked the question unconsciously at the same time. Ling Yichen and Wen Xin looked at each other and couldn’t help but smile.

“Old Dong from the research institute isn’t feeling well, so I came to check on him. What’s the matter with you rushing over here all of a sudden?”

Wen Xin had a rather good impression of Ling Yichen, and her attitude was clearly warmer and more patient towards him, especially because of his relationships with Nan Xu and Mu Chengxi.

“My grandfather is feeling unwell, he was suddenly brought to the hospital. I just received the news, so I came to check on him. Nan Xu isn’t in Beijing, do you have time? Could you come with me to see how he’s doing?”

Ling Yichen had great faith in Wen Xin’s medical skills. Old Master Ling had often mentioned wanting Wen Xin to give him another check-up; his impression of her was particularly good.

“Sure, I’ll go with you to take a look.”

Wen Xin picked up her backpack from the side, slung it over her shoulder, and walked with Ling Yichen towards the elevator.

In the elevator, Ling Yichen casually brought up meeting Mu Chengxi that afternoon, expressing concern for Mu Chengxi’s health.

“Master Xi’s leg seemed quite severely injured. I wonder how long it’ll take for him to recover?”

Ling Yichen suddenly asked about Mu Chengxi’s condition, causing Wen Xin to pause slightly. She was hardly surprised when she saw Mu Chengxi walking normally on campus that day, thinking he didn’t want to keep up the act anymore.

“His leg has started rehabilitation training, and he should be able to recover before long. Was there any particular reason you all gathered together this afternoon?”

Wen Xin was completely unaware of the impact of her identity exposure. She merely thought their afternoon meeting was just making casual conversation and did not think much of it.

“Just internal communication among the major families. It was nothing but your identity getting exposed, dropping a bomb on Beijing. With the Wen family, the heirs of two major research institutes, reappearing in Beijing, all those old folks got nervous.”
