Chapter 265 - Going To The Hospital To Line Up
A beautiful person naturally had an advantage in society. Sometimes, it was very convenient for a beauty to do things others could not.
She believed that Gu Jingyuan might not be able to resist her gentle and generous words.
"You and Doctor Gu?" Wen Yongwei asked subconsciously.
"Are you talking about my brother?"
Wen Yongwei"s breathing paused for a moment before Wen Jili walked over to her with a smile on his face. "s.h.i.+ Jin, I haven"t introduced myself yet. I"m Yongwei"s father. I"m here to ask your brother for help."
His usually arrogant face now bore a rare look of humility.
Wen Yongwei could understand the relations.h.i.+p between s.h.i.+ Jin and Gu Jingyuan even without Wen Jili"s explanation.
Hadn"t s.h.i.+ Jin come from a village? Why did she have a brother like Gu Jingyuan?
She had long known that s.h.i.+ Jin was just a fake heiress of the s.h.i.+ family. Not only was she ignorant and incompetent, but she also stayed with the s.h.i.+ family all year round. However, she actually had such a big brother!
s.h.i.+ Jin raised her beautiful brows. "Oh, then you can look for him directly."
Wen Jili choked.
If Gu Jingyuan was so easy to find, he wouldn"t have waited for s.h.i.+ Jin.
He had only gone out to ask around after hitting a wall earlier. He realized that Gu Jingyuan was already the most popular doctor in the capital, and even the entire world.
He deeply regretted going to look for Gu Jingyuan without having done any preparation today.
No, based on what he found out, even if he had made all the necessary preparations, he still might not be able to cut the queue to this doctor who was already so in-demand.
"s.h.i.+ Jin, you have competed with Xiaowei before, and you have a good relations.h.i.+p with her. Why don"t you put in a good word for us in front of your big brother? A friend of mine is really sick and wants to ask your big brother for help. Saving a life is a more worthy act than building a seven-storied paG.o.da. We can"t just leave her in the lurch, right?" Wen Jili"s tone softened. He even used the moral abduction tactic.
s.h.i.+ Jin did not even bat an eyelid. "Is my brother the only doctor in the capital?"
Wen Jili choked again.
The door to the private room opened. Gu Jingyuan saw that s.h.i.+ Jin hadn"t returned, so he had come over to look for her.
When he saw the two extra people outside, his expression immediately darkened.
"Doctor Gu!" Wen Jili immediately said, "I have a friend who is very ill. Please help him!"
Wen Yongwei said softly, "Doctor Gu, please give us a chance."
She was beautiful, and when she softened her voice, it was very moving. However, Gu Jingyuan only glanced at them indifferently. "Go to the hospital and wait in line."
He did not take Wen Yongwei"s beauty seriously at all.
"Doctor Gu…" Wen Yongwei wanted to fight for more.
Gu Jingyuan reiterated, "The hospital is open to everyone."
After saying that, he did not even look at the Wens. Instead, he looked at s.h.i.+ Jin and said gently, "Do you find it noisy here? If you find it noisy, let"s go somewhere else."
"No need. We"re almost done anyway," said s.h.i.+ Jin. "Let"s go in a sec."
"Okay." Gu Jingyuan ignored Wen Jili and Wen Yongwei.
Did they really think that he did not know why Wen Jili had come to find him alone?
Gu Jingyuan had seen too many people who treated him as a useful tool. Those who really had family and friends who were sick would have gone straight to the hospital to wait for an appointment. How could they be as calm as them?
He had spoiled them!
By the time s.h.i.+ Jin returned, Gu Jingyuan had already paid the bill. He took her bag and walked out with w.a.n.g Boyan and Ye Ke.
For the first time, Wen Yongwei felt defeated in front of s.h.i.+ Jin.
This was something she had never felt before. She had always been a high and mighty daughter of a rich family, a rich and beautiful daughter of a musical family. She had not needed to rely on anyone.
As he watched the four of them leave, Wen Jili"s expression changed slightly. "This s.h.i.+ Jin…"
"Oh right, Dad, I remember now. We can ask s.h.i.+ Xuexin for help."
She explained the relations.h.i.+p between s.h.i.+ Xuexin and s.h.i.+ Jin. "If Gu Jingyuan is really from the Li family, then s.h.i.+ Xuexin should have a good relations.h.i.+p with him. She should be able to help us."
"Alright, quickly go and find s.h.i.+ Xuexin"s contact information."
s.h.i.+ Xuexin was a high-profile person and was a model student of Second High School, so Wen Yongwei managed to find her cell phone number without much effort.
After the call connected, Wen Yongwei made a simple self-introduction.
s.h.i.+ Xuexin"s tone was rather polite, even though she did not really like Wen Yongwei. She had heard from Hu Lai that Wen Yongwei and Chu Ling almost became a celebrity couple. Fortunately, they had not formed a team yet.
However, she subconsciously treated Wen Yongwei as her love rival, even though Wen Yongwei was not very clear about her relations.h.i.+p with Chu Ling.
"Why are you looking for me?" Nevertheless, s.h.i.+ Xuexin had never thought of offending her openly.
"Senior s.h.i.+, I have a favor to ask of you."
"Tell me."
Wen Yongwei deliberated for a moment before saying, "Do you know Gu Jingyuan from the Li Family?"
"I do." s.h.i.+ Xuexin did not speak much. Before she knew the motives of others, she was unwilling to reveal her hand.
"Senior s.h.i.+, I know that you have a good relations.h.i.+p with Doctor Gu. I would like to ask you for a favor. Please get Doctor Gu to agree to my dad"s request to operate on a friend of ours."
s.h.i.+ Xuexin was still in a daze. "You mean Doctor Gu?"
"Can you help me?" Wen Yongwei a.s.sumed that she was unwilling to help.
"My brother is rather busy now. I can"t agree to your request immediately. You can call back later," said s.h.i.+ Xuexin.
"Alright, thank you Senior s.h.i.+. I"ll call you later."
Finally, there was a glimmer of hope. Wen Yongwei"s tone was filled with excitement.
Wen Jili asked, "How is it?"
"Senior s.h.i.+ agreed to help, but she doesn"t know if Doctor Gu has the time."
"Sometimes s.h.i.+ Xuexin is useful. There must be hope."
After hanging up, s.h.i.+ Xuexin immediately went to check on Gu Jingyuan"s information.
Before she could check, her best friends, Zhao Xiyue and Chen Jierou, sent Gu Jingyuan"s photo to her. They were infatuated with Gu Jingyuan on WeChat. "Xue Xinxue, look, this is a new professor from the medical school at Beijing University! Isn"t he a beauty?"
Chen Jierou quickly sent a message: "I heard that when he was fifteen, he was already a junior at Beijing University!"
Zhao Xiyue chimed in. "He"s the most famous doctor in the capital now. I heard that Princ.i.p.al Jiang expended a lot of effort on inviting him to our school for guidance. He even visited the cottage three times and personally invited him!"
Chen Jierou: "It"s a pity that I didn"t attend medical school. Otherwise, I would have been able to see the face of this handsome guy irl!"
Zhao Xiyue said, "Then we can attend the lecture.. As long as it"s Doctor Gu"s cla.s.s, we can definitely attend it."
