Ning Yan frowned and asked, “Who is he? Why are you so surprised?”
“General Hao!” Yang Mukun stared after the man’s figure in shock as he whispered, “He’s the director of the Special Forces!”
He was usually in the capital and enjoyed a lofty position in the army. Even his grandfather was a level lower than him in official rank. Why had this kind of individual, who could only be seen on television, appear in City A and even come to Lin’an Hospital at that?! Had he come to visit a patient?
Someone like him would not be so high-profile if he had come to see a doctor. But since he was, he had to have come here to visit a patient!
Everyone was surprised, even including He Wanning. He asked, “Are you sure it’s him? Even if he wants to visit a patient, he should be in the capital’s hospital. Why is he here?”
Yang Mukun shook his head and replied, “I don’t know, but what I do know is that this man is really General Hao, Hao Hong. I’m sure it’s him!”
“What is he doing here?” Yang Mukun frowned and said to himself, “Even if my grandfather were ill, he wouldn’t come to visit him.”
Xiao Sa and Xiao Yao looked at each other and thought it was impossible. A general would come to see Xiao Yao, a little major?
Yang Mukun asked, “Hey, Little Cousin, is there a super-senior official in your hospital?”
Xiao Sa sneered, “Don’t you think I would know if we really had that kind of patient in our hospital?”
“Weird… it’s really weird…” Yang Mukun shook his head. “When I go back, I’ll ask my grandpa whether there is a general living in reclusion in City A.”
He Wanzhou laughingly said, “Your grandpa is retired. He probably doesn’t know it. You might as well go back and ask your father.”
Yang Mukun snorted. “Well, all my brothers and sisters serve in the army except for me. Because of this, my dad doesn’t like me and rarely gives me a smile. But why should we all join the army? I served in the army for two years as demanded by them. How could they ask me to stay in the army for my lifetime? Is there no other talent in my family?”
He Wanzhou shook his head. “You just don’t know how lucky you’re!”
Xiao Sa was in a hurry to see if the so-called General Hao had actually come to visit their brother, so he hurried to see off the guests. “Hey, don’t stand at the hospital entrance. You guys are being too conspicuous. It’s time for you all to go home.”
Ning Yan was about to speak when another car parked in front of them. A few men dressed in white gowns got off the car, holding laptops in their hands. A doctor was discussing the patient’s condition with the others as he got off the car. “Judging from the patient’s medical history, I can’t see any problem. I think her brain cells must be seriously damaged. How do you all think?”
The other doctors looked worried. “It must be very urgent for them to have hurriedly asked us to come here from the capital by plane. Let’s go up first.”
They spoke no more and entered the hospital.
Burning with anxiety, Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing tried to send off the guests. “Hurry up, go home.”
Xiao Jing looked at He Wanyi and said, “Hey, superstar, don’t you have a job? I heard you have a show to shoot. Just go. We have to go.”
Ning Yan, the old fox, had long noticed the two brothers looking anxious. Looking at the back of the two brothers, he narrowed his eyes and said with a faint smile, “Have you noticed that those two guys are hiding something from us.”
Yang Mukun had realized it too, responding with a nod. “It seems they want us to leave as soon as possible.”
He Wanyi said, “If we want to find out whether they’re hiding something from us, we should go upstairs and have a look.”
The crowd decided to go upstairs again except for He Wanning. He Wanzhou looked at his brother, came over and patted him on the shoulder, saying, “Brother, don’t you think those doctors came to see Xiao Rou? Don’t you want to know about her real condition?”
He Wanning was persuaded by this reason and nodded. “Then let’s go up and have a look.”
The crowd sidled up again to the VIP floor. As they had expected, the doctors they saw downstairs had entered Xiao Rou’s ward. Yang Mukun raised his eyebrows at He Wanning, saying, “You see?”
“They’re experts invited from the capital?”
“And they aren’t like common experts,” Yang Mukun said, pursing his lips. “They don’t look like ordinary doctors. I think they’re military doctors.”
The crowd was surprised. “What? Military doctors!”
Yang Mukun raised his hand to hush them. “When I served in the army, my dad sent me to a training base in the capital and I stayed there for a few months, where there were a lot of doctors carrying out important studies under the protection and sponsors.h.i.+p of the state. These doctors are just like them.”
Just then, General Hao walked out of Xiao Yao’s ward and exchanged a few pleasantries with Yang Jingxian, but he didn’t look as majestic as they had just seen downstairs. Bug-eyed, Yang Mukun leaned against the wall and cried out incredulously, “My eyes aren’t blurred, right?”
Ning Yan snorted. “Your eyes aren’t blurred. That General Hao you can only see on TV has come to visit Xiao Yao in person.”
He Wanzhou poked at Yang Mukun and asked in a low voice, “Has this General Hao come to visit your cousin because of your uncle?”
Yang Mukun sneered, “How could that be possible?” He had told them even if his grandpa were ill, a big shot like General Hao wouldn’t come to visit him in person!
Although City A could be compared with the capital in prosperity, it was no match for the latter in certain aspects.
He Wanning frowned and said, “You’re celebrities anyway. What are you doing here in the corner? If you have any questions, just walk over and ask them!” With that, he strode towards the ward.
It was too late for the crowd to stop him, so they could only follow. Fortunately, General Hao had already left.
Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing were waiting for the results of the doctors’ examination outside Xiao Rou’s ward. When they saw the crowd come back, they raised their eyebrows in surprise and then planned to pretend to know nothing.
Yang Mukun walked over and patted Xiao Jing on the shoulder with a laugh. “Little Cousin, do you have something you’re hiding from us? That was General Hao. My eyes weren’t blurred, right?”
Xiao Jing replied with a frown, “I wouldn’t know if your eyes were blurred or not. I’m not your eyes.”
Xiao Sa nodded, agreeing with what Xiao Jing said.
Just then, Yang Jingxian came out of Xiao Yao’s hospital ward. When she saw the crowd, a gleam of surprise flashed through her eyes and she asked, “Haven’t you all left yet?”
“Aunt Yang, we were feeling a bit worried about Rourou when we ran into the doctors from the capital downstairs, so we came back,” He Wanyi explained with a smile. “We’ll leave when the doctors come out and tell us the results.”
