Chapter 93: Murong Feixue
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Just as Sun Xing’s mother was raging at the two bodyguards, in the chest surgical department’s intensive care unit of the same hospital, a city lady dressed in office attire was questioning the doctor in charge. They were in a luxurious intensive care ward as well.
“Doctor w.a.n.g, are you sure my grandfather does not require surgery? And is his head really fine?”
Doctor w.a.n.g tried his best to resist staring too hard at the ravis.h.i.+ng beauty before him. He then gave her a gentle smile before politely explaining.
“Lady Murong, don’t worry, elder Murong only fractured two of his ribs and in this department, it’s a common case. As compared to his head injury, this level of rib fracture does not require surgery so everything is fine.”
“And to our surprise, his displaced ribs have been repositioned back perfectly by whoever saved him. All we’ve got to do now is to use the chest band to hold the rib in place. After that, all he has to do is make sure he gets plenty of nutrients. Make sure he eats food with high protein and calcium often. Within two weeks, he should be able to get off the bed.”
This is one of Jiangnan Provincial Hospital’s most luxurious wards. To be able to afford such a ward, the person must be highly affluent. Thus, Doctor w.a.n.g made sure to explain politely and patiently to Murong Feixue. Hearing Doctor w.a.n.g’s confident explanation, Murong Feixue’s anxiety lessened. However, another worry popped up in her head.
“But, if my grandfather’s head injury is so severe, will he be alright?” She asked worriedly.
“Lady Murong, all I can say is that it’s a miracle! To be honest, with the state elder Murong was in yesterday, he should have suffered fatal wounds to the head as well as excessive loss of blood. However, when he was sent to the hospital, we performed a full-scale examination only to find that nothing was wrong with his head. Apart from a few bruises that we wrapped up, there was nothing wrong with his head. This was also why we arranged for him to be warded in the chest department instead.
With all her worries removed, Murong Feixue finally calmed down.
“Doctor w.a.n.g, thank you so much!” She exclaimed with sincerity.
Doctor w.a.n.g shook his head politely, giving a smile as he replied, “Lady Murong, you’re thanking the wrong person. You should express your thanks to the person who carried out immediate treatment for the elder right after the accident. If not for him, your grandfather’s condition would not have been favorable.”
The phrase ‘not have been favorable’ is simply an euphemism used by doctors for the patient’s family. In the hospital, this phrase is synonymous with ‘death’.
Having finished his piece, Doctor w.a.n.g nodded his head at Murong Feixue before smiling again.
“Now, I’ll have to excuse myself since I have to attend to other wards. If there’s any problem you can find me anytime.”
After sending the doctor off, Murong Feixue turned and walked back to her grandfather’s ward.
Murong Feixue, aged 23 is among the most famous of jewelry appraisal masters and jewelry designers in the international jewelry industry. She is the current CEO and head designer of the Tianxi jewelry company which is part of the Murong family’s conglomerate.
Yesterday afternoon around three o’clock, she was partic.i.p.ating in a big jewelry auction in Hong Kong when she received the news about Murong Wens.h.i.+. She immediately threw everything aside and took the first plane back to Qingshui City, not even bothering to change her clothes. As a result, since yesterday morning, for a total of thirty-three hours, she did not sleep at all. Thus, her eyes were slightly bloodshot and her face haggard from the anxiety and worry.
Nevertheless, she still looked ravis.h.i.+ng.
She had snow white skin, fine brows, and a sharp nose. With her long jet black hair bundled up on her head, it made her neck look even slimmer. All these helped her give off an air of cla.s.s and elegance. Standing at 1.7 meters tall, her stunning figure was further emphasized by her perfectly fitted office attire. If she were to change to an evening dress, she would no doubt mesmerize anyone that saw her.
“Grandpa? Are you awake?! I’ll go get the doctor now!” the dumbfounded Murong Feixue exclaimed in shock when she saw her grandfather opening his eyes as she returned to the ward. Straight afterward, she left the ward in a hurry.
“Feixue, come back!” Murong Wens.h.i.+ shouted in a weak voice.
“Grandpa!” Murong Feixue stopped instantly and turns around. She then knelt at his bedside as tears began to cascade down her face, wetting the bed sheets. Her face was filled with worry.
“Feixue, grandpa’s fine. Why are you crying? Why’re you alone, where are the others?” Murong Wens.h.i.+ asked softly as he endured the pain in his chest. With every word, his chest seemed to vibrate violently and his fractured ribs hurt him so bad he had a hard time speaking.
Murong Feixue raised her head and wiped her tears away before speaking.
“Grandpa, I didn’t trust them so I sent them back yesterday night.”
“Silly child, we’re all family, what’s there to worry about?” Murong Wens.h.i.+ replied in a soft tone as he looked at his precious granddaughter’s tearful eyes.
“Grandpa, I’ve already sent people to the Public Security Bureau. The person that knocked you down is called Sun Xing, the young master from Beijing’s Sun family. I’ll definitely make him pay for what he did!”
Seeing her grandfather awake and capable of speaking coherently, Murong Feixue was finally able to relax. She felt as if a huge burden had been lifted from her shoulders.
“Who knocked me down isn’t important. What’s important is the guy called Ling Yun who saved me. Have you sent people to find him?”
Before Murong Wens.h.i.+ was rescued by the ambulance, he had already regained consciousness as a result of Ling Yun’s treatment. He then asked for Ling Yun’s name so that he would be able to repay him in the future. Thus, even though the doctor administered anesthesia to reduce his pain and he fell asleep for almost a day, he still remembered the name of his savior.
As for Murong Feixue, she indeed lived up to the reputation of being the CEO of Tianxi jewelry. After coming to Qingshui City, she made sure to settle every matter at hand in an orderly fas.h.i.+on. Now that her grandfather had asked, she nodded her head before replying.
“I tried sending people to investigate, but neither the Public Security Bureau nor the doctors in the hospital know a person call Ling Yun. We are currently still looking for him.”
“He’s the person who saved grandpa’s life. Without him, even if your grandpa was saved he would have landed in a vegetative state. That’s why we must find him and express our grat.i.tude. Do you understand Feixue?” Murong Wens.h.i.+ nodded his head before speaking.
Xue Meining had never driven her precious Ferrari on such a b.u.mpy and rough road before. She frowned as she drove, her heart aching for her Ferrari!
“Why would you live in such a place, how does one even drive on such a broken road!” She moaned.
Regretful as she was, it was too late since she was already deep into the area. Thus, she could only grit her teeth and continue driving deeper into the district. After an ‘excruciating’ journey, she finally reached the entrance of the People’s Clinic. Ling Yun was already at the entrance waiting for her.
This was because after agreeing to let Xue Meining come over, she called him every few minutes to ask for directions. Thus, he gave up on studying and decided he might as well come out and wait for her instead.
“How do you even live in such a place? Driving here almost tired the life out of me!” Xue Meining whined as she came out of her car.
Ling Yun grinned and he glanced at Xue Meining before teasing her.
“Oh is that a new pair of jeans? I see you finally have the decency to cover up your legs huh? Well done…”
Xue Meining’s attire for the day was all made up of clothes she bought yesterday afternoon. She was wearing a snow white s.h.i.+rt, tucked neatly into her light blue skinny jeans. This enhanced her ripe chest and raised her round pet.i.te b.u.t.t. Even though one could no longer see her slim legs, the skinny jeans further emphasized her long and beautiful legs. Her attractiveness seemed to radiate in all directions.
However, the biggest change in her appearance was that the two big and long braids on her head were gone. Instead, she had let down her long black hair, allowing it to sway freely in the breeze. Noticing that Ling Yun was staring at her chest, instead of feeling embarra.s.sed, she was proud of herself. She even puffed her supple chest outwards with confidence for him to see.
“*Cough*cough*… What are you showing off in broad daylight? Come on inside!” Ling Yun exclaimed, his face turning beet red when he saw that she was unfazed by his stare.
The victorious Xue Meining giggled as she hooked her arm comfortably around Ling Yun’s arm. Pressing her right chest against his arms, with her black hair swaying in the wind, she followed him into the clinic.
“Hey, control yourself alright? My mum’s coming soon, it’ll be bad if she sees us like this!” Ling Yun said. He was once again shocked by how bold this lady was as he felt her soft breast pressing against his arm. To flirt with him under broad daylight!
Unfortunately, the neighboring Li Hongmei who had been sitting at the counter of her shop had witnessed everything! She was flabbergasted once again.
“What…What kind of fortune is s.h.i.+ning on Ling Yun? The car today is even more luxurious than the one from yesterday! That girl is so attractive, but, why is she so intimate with Ling Yun? …”
Once they were within the clinic, Xue Meining unhooked herself from Ling Yun and began surveying the place.
“Big brother Ling Yun, so this is your family’s clinic huh? Do you all practice eastern or western medicine?”
“Both.” Ling Yun replied nonchalantly.
“Hehe, looks like both of our family are in the same business. Things should get interesting…”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, knowing that you have a clinic, I’ll be able to come and help out whenever I’m free right? Even though I don’t know anything about the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot, I’m still quite well versed in medicine…”
Having seemed to find a place where she could put the medical techniques she learned from her grandfather to good use made her eager and excited to try things out.
“You will have to get my mum’s approval first, besides, we’ll be moving out of this place soon.” Ling Yun answered
“Auntie will surely approve!”
“You… What makes you so sure?”
“Hehe, that’s because I’m your girlfriend, or have you forgotten?” Xue Meining replied cheekily.
“…”
“Yeah but that’s also temporary, right? It’s not like it’s a real relations.h.i.+p!”
“Yeah, but if we’re gonna act then we gotta play the part, or else that Li Qingchuan would never believe me. Not to mention he’s full of tricks!”
“If you insist, then how about for starters let’s have a pa.s.sionate hug followed by a deep kiss!”
Once he finished speaking, Ling Yun playfully dashed towards Xue Meining with a ‘wicked’ smile. In response, she dodged and ran to another corner of the clinic, giggling.
“Ling Yun, it seems like you have slimmed down considerably?”
