CHAPTER 431: CHAPTER 432: BEICHENG’S VERSION OF SU DAQIANG!

After he finished speaking, Gu Anxi silently looked at him.

About two or three seconds later, she gave him a faint smile. "Second Uncle, I am going to the hospital."

Bo Qing was taken aback, seemingly unable to accept the abrupt end to the conversation.

After a moment, he looked down. "Okay."

Gu Anxi stared at him for another few seconds before she left.

As she was leaving, the wind blew, causing Bo Qing’s dark-colored long robe to flutter slightly, creating a stark contrast with her white outfit today.

After she left, Bo Qing stood under the magnolia tree as petals fell all around him.

He gently touched his forehead and laughed bitterly...

...

Gu Anxi got in the car and gave a slight smile before starting the engine.

As she turned on the car, she gently sighed with her eyes closed.

The last person she wanted to face was him.

***

The news of Gu Anxi taking over Yunxi Hospital spread like wildfire.

Everyone knew that Gu Anxi was Bo Xichen’s student, but to manage Yunxi Hospital, the most prestigious hospital in the whole country? That must be a joke!

They said Gu Anxi had only been studying medicine for half a year!

Could she really perform surgery?

Many voices of doubt echoed within Yunxi Hospital, but Gu Anxi ignored them all. She went to her uncle’s office, put on a white coat, and started reviewing the documents her uncle had previously read. As her fingers touched the files, she felt a sense of tenderness in her heart.

Perhaps they still carried her uncle’s warmth...

She couldn’t help but send a WeChat message: "Are you taking off yet?"

It took about five minutes for him to reply: "Yes, I’m about to take off."

Gu Anxi didn’t reply. Instead, she lowered her head and focused on reading about the crucial patients under Bo Xichen’s care.

Yunxi Hospital was the most high-end hospital in Beicheng, and all the prominent figures in Beicheng trusted this hospital for their healthcare.

Among them, Old Wang was the most distinguished.

He was a titan in Beicheng’s elite circles and, notably, an elder of the current paramount leader’s family. His health was not something to be taken lightly. Jiang Hospital had desperately wanted to secure him as a patient. However, their resources and reputation ultimately couldn’t compare to Yunxi Hospital, so Old Wang was admitted here.

Yunxi Hospital did not disappoint. Bo Xichen had performed successful surgery on Old Wang.

However, Old Wang needed a second surgery.

Everyone in Yunxi Hospital knew about this, yet no one in the hospital was confident enough to perform the surgery on Old Wang. Firstly, they lacked experience; secondly, Old Wang was of advanced age with various health conditions that could unexpectedly worsen at any time. Who had the courage to operate on him?

Concerning this matter, Dr. Bo hadn’t left any instructions before he left.

However, Gu Anxi knew very well that her uncle intended for her to perform the surgery. This was also what Bo Xichen’s father had implied when he had previously approached her about taking full responsibility.

At this crucial juncture, Gu Anxi had to proceed, whether she wanted to or not.

After reviewing Old Wang’s medical history and surgery records, she summoned the surgical assistant and nurse who were present during the initial surgery to question them about the event. Then, she meticulously examined the video recorded by Fengxi.

While she was focused, Fengxi’s voice sounded rather sarcastic—

"[You must be lonely without Professor Bo!]"

Gu Anxi sighed. "Yes, I am!"

Then, Fengxi’s voice sounded extremely cheerful—

"[I am omnipresent. Professor Bo brought me along.]"

"[Gu Anxi, isn’t it clear who Professor Bo’s darling is?]"

Gu Anxi stared at the screen, speechless.

Fengxi’s voice was filled with arrogance—

"[Jealousy is disfiguring you!]"

Gu Anxi raised her hand and switched Fengxi to its cold emotion mode.

"You talk too much!"

She spent the whole morning understanding Old Wang’s illness. The truth was, simply put—he was old. His organs were all ailing, and the slightest trigger could cause his whole system to collapse. It was an incredibly precarious situation, the kind where only money kept him alive. For ordinary people, complications in such cases were understandable, but this was Old Wang... Even the normally bold and straightforward Gu Anxi dared not be careless.

By the time she finished reviewing the medical records, it was around eleven in the morning. She went to Old Wang’s ward.

The ward occupied an entire floor and was heavily guarded. Furthermore, one had to pass through two sets of password-protected security doors.

Gu Anxi, accompanied by two nurses, entered the ward. Inside the large room, a gaunt old man lay weakly, with an remarkably spirited old lady by his side. Although her attire seemed modest, the string of vibrant green beads—likely emeralds—around her neck and her commanding aura instantly revealed her as Old Lady Wang.

Gu Anxi had heard gossip that Old Lady Wang hailed from an exceptionally illustrious family. Even now, in her eighties, one could still discern traces of the delicate beauty she possessed in her youth.

At that moment, Old Lady Wang was holding a book in French, reading aloud to Old Wang. Her pronunciation was quite pleasant to the ear.

Gu Anxi didn’t interrupt but leaned against the door, listening, and gestured for the young nurses not to disturb them either.

It wasn’t until five minutes later, when Old Lady Wang finished reading, that she looked up and noticed the three people standing by the door.

The old lady’s eyes glinted sharply. "Where is Dr. Bo? Why didn’t he come?"

After speaking, she scrutinized the young woman before her, who looked no older than twenty.

She isn’t even old enough to be a nurse!

Upon hearing this, Old Wang, looking frail, lamented, "It’s over! I’m going to die!"

With that, he lay back down, throwing a tantrum. "Get Bo Xichen here! Otherwise, I refuse to cooperate!"
