The Emperor's Pampered Wife

Those who were yet to know her, those who belonged Higher than the rest, suddenly found out her achievements like a bomb. Why did they not notice her ahead of time? Why did they allow such potential doctor to become Director Hans apprentice?

They gave the Director the upper hand once more like the idiots they are.

"Oh My G.o.d! Did you hear! Did you hear!" a nurse from the Neurological Department said while running full speed to the new arrivals.

The oblivious nurses who just came in all looked at her like she"s crazy. This is a hospital, not some sort of playground where she can freely run around. "What?"

"Master Han made Doctor Hou his apprentice!"

An unsettling feeling suddenly warped them upon hearing this news. It"s that Doctor again? What"s up with her?

"Really?" someone asked in enthusiasm making the others look at her differently. Wait, what"s wrong with her? Is Long Lee crazy?

The little perky nurse, Long Lee, looked at them with a smile. Yep, she knows. They are obviously envious and she wasn"t like them. She likes Doctor Hou.

In fact, she idolizes her. Watching them chew on her makes her quite bitter on them. How can they not see Hou Wei Yan"s shine? She"s the Doctor that should be taken as a role model because unlike Jiang Yanyan, she genuinely cares for her patients no matter their status in life.

Sure everyone has varying opinions and she can"t force her belief on them, but gawking at Wei Yan just because she got it all isn"t right judgement at all.

"Yeah! Master Han told Doctor Wen Shan"

He told Doctor Wen Shan?

Lee smiled at herself when she heard this. Ah, her idol is simply the best! She managed to spike up Master Hans interest to the point that he willingly shared the good news to his frenemy.

"What the heck! That"s crazy!" one of them exclaimed in utter surprise. Doctor Hou, an apprentice of the Great Master Surgeon? That"s ridiculous! "Even Jiang Yanyan didn"t become his apprentice"

When they heard what he said, some of them gasped in realization. That"s right! Jiang Yanyan was his favourite but he never considered her his apprentice nor bragged that she is.

That means Doctor Hou is on another level of greatness. After all, she"s the first apprentice! "Then she"s the first ever apprentice of Master Han"

"She must be really good" someone acknowledged making Long Lee smile while nodding her head.

They realized way too late!

"She must be really good at selling herself" an unknown voice said. They turned around, ready to hear some rumors and experience a bit of drama.

"Hey Suchun! Stop talking nonsense" Long Lee defended while pointing at her. This ridiculous Nurse again! Last time she was the one who initiated the rumors regarding Wei Yan and Lu Huan. She didn"t learn and here she is ready to sabotage her idol once more.

But she won"t stand idly again. "Do you think Master Han is that kind of man?"

"Yeah sure, he is honorable. But my doubt is in Doctor Hou" Suchun said with mockery and poison. Her words was venomous enough to attract a lot of attention.

Long Lee grated her teeth in vexation. She purposely raised her voice, didn"t she! This lunatic is a serious headache and an obvious thorn in her path of befriending her idol!

"She"s a great surgeon. She must have been chosen because of that" someone from the sideline said, but Suchun easily dismissed it with her words.

"She must have been chosen because She"s Doctor Hou. Doctor Jiang was the best yet why wasn"t she chosen. Isn"t it because her beauty was inferior to hers and her moves far innocent compared to Doctor Hou?"

"Suchun" Long Lee called out with warning. One more word from her filthy mouth and she will strangle her!

She"s such a green eyed monster! Can"t she just be glad Yi Lan has a capable doctor who can boost the probability of saving their patients!

Suchun wickedly smiled at her warning thinking that Long Lee was a puppy barking at the wrong tree. She looked around her and eyed the silent male nurses and doctors around.

"What? Don"t tell me you don"t find her attractive? Don"t tell me that if she asks you something you won"t do it?"

True enough, some guilty party ducked their heads in embarra.s.sment. Wei Yan haven"t asked them any favor but they were sure that if she ever asked, they would agree without delay.

But it"s not because of her attractive face, but because she"s quite kind despite everything that happened to her here in Yi Lan. She remained the same despite the cruel treatment of the staffs to her.

So basically, what Suchun said isn"t wrong but isn"t entirely right either.

"All the boys are after her and she"s letting it be. Doesn"t that speak volume" she said with a smirk on her face. Some of them felt offended by what she said.

Are they all b.a.s.t.a.r.ds in her eyes just because they show kindness to Wei Yan?

Between Wei Yan and Suchun, the latter seems more suspicious and insane!

"To put it simply, she"s a b.i.t.c.h climbing to the top through her body" she added making the females grate their teeth at her. Calling someone a b.i.t.c.h in such establishment is going to far.

And what did she imply with her words? That those attractive people who managed to reach the top of their hospital are using their body for their success!?

They too have friends above and they are righteous people! Saying such words are an insult not just to Hou Wei Yan but to those above them as well. As a woman, she shouldn"t be saying such words in front of this crowd. In fact, she shouldn"t talk like this at all!

A slow clap was slowly heard from the back along a hideous laugh. All of them turned around only to see Xie Na with her eyes filled with mockery and darkness.

This bee hive needs to be destroyed. And she, Xie Na, will be the one to destroy it.

"Looks like someone is jealous over here" she said after reaching the front. The darkness in her eyes was very dangerous and intimidating that they can"t help but gulp and back away.

Spectating is their forte, fighting such wild beast isn"t.

"Doctor Xie" Long Lee called out with respect before bowing. Ah, her idol"s best friend is here, ready to save the day!

Xiong Suchun grated her teeth upon Xie Na"s entrance and sudden interference. She has their ears already! She managed to grab their attention and was ready to tarnish b.i.t.c.h Wei Yan.

But the b.i.t.c.h"s Apostle just had to come and ruin everything! Both of them are the same. b.i.t.c.hes ruining her image, they are always there ruining her plans! And they are always there taking her men!

She was the one that first saw Fang! How can she s.n.a.t.c.h him away from her! She"s like her best friend, a b.i.t.c.h through and through.

"Xie Na" she said in despise.

Xie Na hardened her gaze when Suchun called her name. This disgusting creature! How dare she call her name! "Don"t call me so casually, unlike others I don"t consider you my friend"

"So you"re the source of all the nasty rumours, Nurse Xiong" Xie Na said, her voice filled with mockery. She was talking, yes, but her tone was laughing. Suchun can"t help but flinch at her demonic eyes and voice.

"Wait, should I start calling you Nurse Gossiper? Nurse Rumor maker!? The nurse who has all the time in the world to mess with the hospital staffs?"

"What did you say!?" Suchun yelled in anger. Mess with the Hospital staffs!? How dare---

She looked around her and saw how everyone who was on her side earlier, destroying Wei Yan, was now whispering words she can"t dare think about any longer. This table turning b.i.t.c.h!

"Ooops, was that supposed to be a secret?" the annoying Xie Na asked before covering her mouth with her hands. But despite that, her irritating eyes never changed nor falter. She continued staring at Suchun, jesting her like crazy. "I"m sorry"

"But what can we do? Now they know" she added, now holding back her laughter at her obvious mistake.

Who told her to spread rumors about Wei Yan? She"s so bold when in fact she should be hiding in shame. After all, she"s just a ring for barbecue sticks.

Suchun"s eyes went wide in anger and she screeched in rage at the filthy bad mouthing Xie Na. "I"m just stating my opinion. Am I not allowed to?"

"Of course you can. But to use your opinion to tarnish someone is not really acceptable" Xie Na said now returning to her stoic and bored look. "Besides, I find your opinion quite delusional"

"Aren"t you just jealous that someone has the boy"s attention and you do not? I think the real s.l.u.t here is the one spreading such wonderful news like it"s the end of the world for her"

A huge smile was now plastered in Xie Na"s face. She"s not that much against Jiang Yanyan, but against this tiny ant, she"s a Demon, and demons never leave their prey with mercy.

She wants to destroy Wei Yan, but what if she gets destroyed by that plan? Won"t that be the most satisfying thing ever?

Killing the mage with the power he threw! That sounds more fun to her.

"You---"

Wei Yan who just entered the facility along Fang looked at the crowd. When she saw her best friend amongst them, she already felt something was odd. She must have done something again.

"Xie Na?" she called out, ready to pull her collar if she continues to linger with such crowd.

Upon hearing her bestfriend"s voice, Xie Na smirked towards the pale Suchun before turning to Wei Yan with a huge smile on her face. The complete opposite of her demonic face earlier. "Wei Wei~"

"What are you doing? Fang is waiting for us" Wei Yan said before looking at Fang who was already waiting ahead of her. Xie Na glanced at the Ice Cold Prince before nodding her head.

"Coming!" she yelled before turning back at them who was gathered like ants.

"I don"t expect you to believe in her skills, but could you at least respect her profession the way she respected yours" she said before totally leaving the buzzing bee hive of stupid gossipers.

Silence fell on those who were left there, but Suchun wasn"t done yet. She won"t end the fight like this! She won"t accept defeat right now!

"She"s right" someone said before she could open her mouth and spill poison once more. "Doctor Hou displayed what a doctor is ought to be unlike some of us. Admit it"

They who were stunned earlier, turned on the brunette near Long Lee. He was quite tall and his body has noticeable muscles screaming testosterone. His eyes was that of a sapphire, glistening with pa.s.sion and righteousness. The glistening of his chocolate brown hair was magestic perfectly harmonising with the look in his eyes.

Long Lee who idolized Wei Yan can"t help but give the man a thumbs up despite not knowing who he was. Who cares, he"s a comrade. That"s right he"s a comrade now!

The man glanced at her and wasn"t able to hold back a chuckle. Who is this cute creature?

After a good few seconds, he turned his attention on Suchun and smirked. "Don"t you think it"s ridiculous how you"re destroying her image just because you can"t save yours?"

"Who are you to talk like that to me!" Suchun yelled unaware of everyone"s stare and fright.

One of the Cardio Departments Nurse pulled her away warily without looking at the man. This woman is done for! And all of them will be included in her misfortune if this keeps up! "Hey Suchun, stop!"

"That"s funny" the man said all of a sudden while chuckling. He took a step forward and glared at the small fry nurse. "I"m Doctor Ismael Ashraf"

"Don"t you know me?" he asked, obviously aware of how big his name is and what kind of impact it brings.

Suchun paled when she heard of his name. Ashraf!? Ismael Ashraf!? That Egyptian Doctor Director Han personally scouted?

"Doctor Ash?"

Ismael smirked at her pale figure. "That"s me and that Doctor you insulted is my future master"

He came in before Hou Wei Yan did that"s why he was more well known than her and already established strong connection in the hospital. He was always busy with his research and surgeries so not everyone knows what he looks like.

Barely leaving the surgery room, Ismael only met Wei Yan during her surgery with Cheng Ying. He saw that despite all the hurdles, she was swift and skilled. Judging from her precision, she was more skilled than he is. A master worthy of him.

He will make sure he becomes her apprentice. Hou Wei Yan will become his master, whatever it takes!

"So watch what you say or you will find yourself walking out this hospital without bringing a single penny out" he added before turning around with a smile. "Ciao"

.....

"Master Han" Wei Yan called out after knocking three times in the esteemed Master Surgeon"s office.

Han Tengfei who was just talking in the phone with Ji Li Zhao sighed before ending the call. As usual, the husband found out of the rumors circulating his wife and he didn"t like it one bit.

Questioning his wife"s capabilities after all the hard work she exerted is a great insult to him. Offendimg Li Zhao is something everyone wants to avoid, and thus a counterattack has been planned.

Tengfei coughed before opening the room for Wei Yan. He gave her his polite smile and guided her inside. "Doctor Hou, take a seat"

"I don"t know if you"re aware but there"s a rumor circulating around" he stated directly, not wanting to delay anymore in setting the unrest inside him.

This lady is his son"s wife which technically makes her his daughter. He won"t allow such gossips to destroy Wei Yan"s bright future.

"A rumor?" Wei Yan asked, quite oblivious of the rumor Suchun started to spread.

Ah, now that she thinks about it, the crowd earlier must have been about the rumor. Xie Na obviously knows about but purposely kept silent.

That kid, it"s not like a rumor could kill her competence and self-esteem.

"People are doubting whether you"re capable or worthy enough to become my apprentice" he said with a sip of his coffee.

Honestly, why does he have such stupid subordinates? Would he accept someone incompetent? Sure, polishing a newbie is thrilling to others, but he"s a psycho. He"s preference is different. He would rather choose someone who can stand with him than take in someone who follows him. That way, there would be less explanation and more action.

"It can"t be helped. I just learned from Xie Na that I"m your first ever apprentice" Wei Yan said while shrugging her shoulders. "Such attention would of course be directed to me who took another important role"

When she found out about it from Xie Na, she was quite shocked and thought that she went into another heap of trouble again by accepting the apprenticeship. Her normal days are over thanks to her sudden agreement with the Master Surgeon.

Tengfei smiled when she said this but he immediately reverted to his serious mode. "Doctor Hou, to be honest, I"m not a shy and reserved person. I show people what I have"

He took out a folder and handed it to Wei Yan who accepted it without delay.

"I have a VVIP operation three days from now. I want you to a.s.sist me on it"

"VVIP" she repeated before glancing at Han Tengfei.

He told her that he doesn"t usually treat VIPs. She confirmed this fact from Xie Na not too long ago.

For him to take this in, it must be a risky operation. Risky enough for him to seek her.

"There will be a lot of spectators" he added making her ears perk up.

Spectators.

So he does intend to show her off.

"I see" she said before flipping the pages. The patient will undergo Septal Myectomy, a surgery to unclog the congealed muscles of the heart.

He has a congealed heart muscles - a symptom of a multifaceted heart disease medically recognised as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Besides being a procedure that can last anywhere between three and six hours and convalescence in the ICU, the tricky part of this surgery is that it needs to be performed on a motionless heart.

This is something she cannot ignore. Wei Yan gave a sincere smile before nodding her head. "It"s okay for me. There"s no need for me to hide when someone needs me"

"I"m glad" Tengfei said with a sigh of relief. This way, they can shut all the twerps yapping like mad dogs who doesn"t know the extent of their capabilities and Wei Yan"s.

"For now, I want you to help out in the A&E Department. We"re still looking for a suitable replacement for Doctor Jiang"

"Got it" Wei Yan replied with a huge and understanding smile on her face. "Thank you for your help, Master Han"

"Call me Uncle Han" Tengfei suddenly interjected. He had a fatherly smile on his face which was slightly odd to Wei Yan.

Let her call him Uncle first, then in the future he will allow her to call him father.

Wei Yan shrugged his odd smile and listened to his reason. "I prefer it if you call me Uncle Han. Your mother and I are cla.s.smates after all"

"Alright, Uncle" she immediately replied knowing full well the extent of his friendship with her mother. She vaguely remembers him from her past but he"s undeniably a part of the memories her mother treasured.

Tengfei who was sipping his coffee with a smile glanced at the portrait behind Wei Yan. The image of his beloved wife on their wedding made him remember the request she made early in the morning. "Ah, my wife wants to have dinner with you tonight. Is it okay?"

Dang, he almost lost his life for forgetting such crucial request.

"Hmm? Dinner?"

"My wife, your mother"s best friend. I"m sure you met her in the past a lot"he asked, trying to make her remember the past she once burried in her head.

"I"m sorry, Uncle. Mother has a lot of gangs" Wei Yan answered sheepishly.

Her mother, well...her mother is a known gangster back in the days. She"s the Fierce Princess Xing since she was young so her connection and circle of friends is too vast. Sometimes, she even wonders how her mother remembers all of them without missing a single detail or an update of their current life.

Tengfei can"t help but chuckle at her honesty. "Right right"

Xing Mei Yi is indeed famous for her connections and weird collection of friends.

"Tong Yixue. Ring a bell?"

"Ah, Auntie Yi!?" Wei Yan exclaimed in excitement. That Auntie Yi?

She was quite close with Tong Yixue because of her mother and their deep family connection. She"s a wild heiress who managed to capture her grandparents" favor, so whenever she visits the house always prepares a feast.

But why can"t she remember Han Tengfei from her past!?

Now that she recalls, Auntie Yi"s husband seems vague in her memory. She remembers their marriage, they even have children, but his face seems blank in her mind.

Why can"t she remember him?

Puzzled, Wei Yan stared intently at Tengfei. After a few seconds, she smiled at him like nothing happened in her mind. She dismissed her mini debate and proceeded on accepting such wonderful invitation. "Sure, I would love to"

"She"ll come for you later, I hope you"re prepared" Tengfei said, well...more like warned.

Her wife is crazy, he"s a bit worried she might infect Wei Yan with her weirdness.

Ah, G.o.d forbid.

"I"ll be" Wei Yan chirped, unaware of the worry currently eating up Han Tengfei.

Yep, he"s going to pray that it doesn"t happen.

To not blurt out anything unnecessary that may definitely anger or ruin his wife"s plan, Tengfei coughed and changed the course of their conversation. "Also, you should start considering building a team. Having just three of you doing risky operations may spark unnecessary interest from others"

Wei Yan as his apprentice is already a juicy topic for everyone and she"s attracting attention just by it. If she continues showing her skills by performing miraculous surgeries with three people, then he might not be able to protect her from the spy bees anymore.

Some doctors indeed never investigate given their hectic schedule, but those of higher rankings are often suspicious and can easily dispatch special forces to investigate. Sure, there"s Ji Li Zhao and the Xing"s to prevent any leakage of information, but a simple deduction is all one needs.

With her skills, someone might connect her to the Daredevil.

After all, one cannot simply hide their true talent.

"I"ll send some recommendations to you" he said before taking a sip of his coffee.

Right, Ashraf might do. That little b.a.s.t.a.r.d keeps complaining that he"s not getting enough information and knowledge from him. He should send him to Wei Yan so he can discover how much he still lacks so he would stop referring to himself as a genius.

Wei Yan nodded her head before standing up and taking a bow. "Thanks again, Uncle"

Tengfei waved his hands at her. When she left, he immediately dialled Ji Li Zhao to inform him of their talk and the progress of Wei Yan"s soon to be established Medical Team.

"Wei Yan" Meixiu called out after Wei Yan closed the door.

She looked at Meixiu for a while before nodding her head. Han Tengfei is right, she"s attracting unnecessary attention to her by playing with only three people in the risky casino. She can"t continue going down that path anymore if she wants to continue working in the emergency department.

"Sister Qiu" Wei Yan called out with a smile. "I"ll be helping in the A&E from now on. I want to ask for your help"

"Of course" Meixiu immediately answered without delay. It"s her greatest pleasure to lend a helping hand to her, whom she now consider as her family.

Wei Yan smiled sincerely at her. The rumors are ridiculous but somehow she can"t stand it.

By saying she"s incompetent, they are also implying that her comrades are incompetent as well. She won"t stand by and do nothing when the insults are no longer directed at her. "Let"s go show them something special"

"Also, Sister Qiu. Why don"t we build our own medical team?"

This time, Meixiu was the one that smiled. Oh, so the time has finally come. "Why not? Shall I start gathering intel? It"s my forte after all"

"Then, I"ll leave it in your good hands, Sister" Wei Yan answered, wuite excited of the prospects Meixiu will offer.

But, as much as possible, she wants to avoid trouble. If she were to choose from those high up or from the popular ones, the price to pay might be too high a cost.

Besides, isn"t it thrilling to start from scratch. If she wants to prove something, she needs people who are diligent enough to work alongside her and prove that hardwork beats intelligence. "Ah, let"s try polishing our rising newbies. I believe I heard rumors of them having potential rising stars"

"I"ll get on with that" Meixiu nodded her head, her enthusiasm rising by the second. Oh yes, here comes the nice juicy part. Finally, they can shut up the arrogant fools in the hospital. "It"s been a while since I felt this thrilled"

Wei Yan can only chuckle as she began walking. Meixiu followed suit. "The others will feel thrilled as well"

A naughty smile made it"s way to her face as they drifted away from Han Tengfei"s office. Yep, she"s ready to go for the thrilling part and she will make sure she"s not the only one who will feel it. "In a different way that is"

Yi Lan Hospital better be prepared.
