Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered - Chapter 438
Chapter 438: Beijing Overlord
Butler Qin stepped in front to block her, his gullied face full of pleas as he murmured, “You must wait for the Sixth Master…”
Although he was a butler, he didn’t have many connections. The Qin family only had today because of Qin Xiuchen’s support.
Butler Qin had immediately informed Qin Xiuchen after the incident. Without him, Butler Qin seemed to lose his backbone.
He was very certain that the Fourth Master must have something to do with Qin Ling’s incident. But like the collapse of the Qin family’s direct bloodline several years ago, this incident surely wouldn’t be traced back to him.
In the past few days, Ah Wen and the others had watched Qin Ling so closely and didn’t expect something to happen.
Silently standing in front of the elevator door with drooping eyes, she paused for a long while before slightly looking up. Her eyes were still as cold and black as usual but were now tinged with a trace of blood.
She was usually lazy and casual, so her new attitude was too strange to Butler Qin.
Qin Ran closed her eyes and opened them after a long while. “Go to the hospital first,” she said in an undulated voice.
Ah Wen drove the car.
Qin Ran didn’t drive in her own car and got into the back seat.
Butler Qin got into the driver’s seat. It was Saturday, and the roads were unimpeded.
They arrived at the Research Institute hospital 20 minutes later.
The third floor belonged to the emergency operating room.
Qin Hanqiu was standing outside the operating room, his simple and honest face now quiet, and his eyes reddish. He stared motionlessly at the operating room.
Not far from the operating room stood a woman and a fat girl.
The girl looked only nine years old. Her eyes were dark and bright, and she had a calmness unmatched by ordinary people, but her hands were tightly pinched at her sides.
Male and female policemen were taking notes beside her.
Butler Qin had already explained the incident to Qin Ran. This was a car accident. The driver had sudden epilepsy and was in the hospital as well.
Qin Ran went straight to the operating room without looking at anyone.
Seeing her, Qin Hanqiu’s eyes finally moved, and he seemed to find some strength. “Ran Ran…”
“What’s the situation now?” Qin Ran’s voice was still calm and slightly lowered, her suppressed tone very obvious in the quiet corridor.
“There was a critical emergency notice…” Qin Hanqiu glanced at her. “He transferred here from the First Hospital an hour ago.”
At that time, they were close to the First Hospital and had sent Qin Ling over directly. After the First Hospital issued a critical illness notification, they were advised to transfer to the affiliated hospital.
Nodding slightly, Qin Ran remained silent and stood beside Qin Hanqiu for a long while before easing her mind.
She took her phone and headed towards the end of the corridor.
“Miss Qin, what are you doing?” Butler Qin focused on her every movement and immediately asked when he saw her walking to the side.
He was well aware of her temper.
Without looking back, Qin Ran said in a cold voice, “My friend is still waiting for me. I’m giving him a call.”
She only thought of her appointment with Lu Zhaoying after arriving at the hospital.
It wasn’t 9 am yet.
Mother Lu was changing clothes.
After changing into a purple cheongsam, she changed into a white cashmere coat and came out to ask Lu Zhaoying.
Lu Zhaoying glanced at her and frowned. “Mom, no need to change. Qin Ran has something urgent to attend to.”
“What?” Mother Lu paused with her coat in her hands and threw it onto the sofa, her eyes slightly squinted.
Shaking his head and losing his cynical smile, Lu Zhaoying’s voice became heavier. “Her tone isn’t right, I’ve only heard it once.”
That time, Chen Shulan had passed away in Yun Cheng.
Getting up from the sofa, he called Cheng Juan with one hand and grabbed his coat. “Mom, I’m going out.”
Mother Lu originally wanted to go with him, but after seeing his solemn expression, she decided to stay at home.
**
At the hospital.
Qin Ran hung up and leaned against the wall for a while.
Her hands tightened around her phone.
After a long while, she took out her phone again, found a phone number, and called Cheng Juan.
Not far away, the surgery door opened, and out came the assistant doctor in a blue surgical gown.
He held a slip in his hands and talked to Qin Hanqiu in a solemn voice, “Every operation has its own risks. Craniotomy and heart surgery have the highest risks. I can’t promise you anything, but I’ll try my best as a doctor.”
Qin Hanqiu’s eyelashes fluttered. At this time, he wasn’t in the right state of mind. He looked at the success rate of the operation and didn’t dare to sign the agreement. “What are the sequelae of the operation?”
“Craniotomy will have an impact on the patient’s IQ, and they usually take three to six months to recover…” the doctor spoke conscientiously.
Butler Qin remained silent and only lowered his head to look at the agreement.
Success rate—
65%.
He was stunned. Although he knew the risks of this operation and knew it wasn’t a 100% success rate, he didn’t expect a 35% risk…
This was why Butler Qin and Qin Hanqiu dared not sign.
Doctors faced this situation often, and it wasn’t surprising to see family members struggle to sign for a period of time.
With a solemn face and trembling hands, Qin Hanqiu was about to sign on the paper when it was yanked away from him.
He looked up to see Qin Ran.
He finally leaned on the wall.
Holding her phone in one hand and the agreement in the other, she looked down at the success rate written above.
Butler Qin and Qin Hanqiu both stared at her. Although they were afraid to sign, the agreement had to be signed eventually.
The assistant doctor also looked towards her. “This success rate is the highest in the city… Of course, there’s a man with a higher success rate, almost 100%. But he’s rather eccentric and only performs surgery once a month, and he also likes to do those intractable diseases… Our Dean also has a 90% success rate, but…”
“Who is it?!” Qin Hanqiu’s eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope.
Butler Qin was also a little agitated. He knew who the doctor was talking about.
The former neither sought fame nor fortune and only promised to do one operation a month. The operation on his hand seemed to be scheduled for a year later. As for his authority?
In the entire Beijing, aside from the Xu family, nobody could shake the Cheng family’s overload position.
The Dean…
To make an appointment with him, they had to schedule at least three months in advance, but Qin Ling’s situation was an emergency…
Even in the Qin family’s heyday, this was an impossible feat.
Butler Qin pursed his lips and said in a weak voice, “Second Master, just sign. That person… it’s impossible…”
“No need to sign,” Qin Ran said lightly after hanging up.
The assistant doctor was stunned. “What do you mean?”
Qin Ran remained silent and only stared behind them.
Behind them, the elevator reached the third floor, and the doors opened. A group of people came out in a wave.
The person heading the group was a man in a white coat. His head was flat, his hair was slightly white, and he looked cold.
He also held an illness form in his hands.
He glanced around the lobby and saw Qin Ran.
He directly walked over to her.
The assistant director and the nurses were shocked. “Dean?”
The Dean nodded at them and then turned to Qin Ran. “Miss Qin, I’m Cheng Weiping, Qingyu’s Dad.”
Qin Ran nodded at him and remembered seeing him at the Cheng family’s house before. She handed the form to him.
“When will Master Juan arrive?” Cheng Weiping let the group of people behind him inside the operating room and handed Qin Ran the white coat in his hands.
Putting on the white coat, her extremely pale eyebrows seemed to be the calm before the storm. “10 minutes.”
Cheng Weiping nodded and led her to the operating room. “I’ve found your brother’s information. Don’t worry, I’ll show you his condition first.”
Cheng Juan had instructed him to do so.
Qin Ran had yet to see his condition.
Buttoning her coat, she turned and glanced at Qin Hanqiu emotionlessly. “I’ll go in and see his condition.”
Then, she walked inside with Cheng Weiping.
The originally clean and quiet operating room suddenly became busy.
A group of nurses and doctors came and went.
Another five minutes later, a nurse came over and took off her mask. “Mr. Qin, don’t worry, the kid is safe.”
Qin Hanqiu stood outside with Ah Wen and the others, his mind still in a daze.
The series of things that had happened stunned them.
They finally sighed in relief.
“Just now, was the person who went in with Miss Qin… the Dean?” Ah Wen reacted and turned to Butler Qin.
Butler Qin slightly regained his senses. He naturally had never met Cheng Weiping but had heard the group of doctors and nurses address him as the Dean. “I think so…” he replied, a little dazed.
