CHAPTER 447: CHAPTER 434: DIVORCE, MUST DIVORCE_2

At this moment, the third floor was bustling with patients. Nan Yu and Chi Ying followed behind Li Chongbai, walking into the pre-arranged Acupuncture room.

Soon after, the four renowned doctors also entered, tightly shutting the door behind them.

Other patients outside, witnessing this, couldn’t help but grow curious.

"Who was that patient who just went in? Why does it take the Dean and four top doctors to treat them?"

"They don’t look that sick. Why do they need so many doctors? Isn’t this just a waste of medical resources?"

"Look at that old lady, so dignified and extravagant, dressed in gold and jewels. She obviously comes from wealth or power, throwing money to get this treatment!"

"I thought Dean Li was always fair and principled, never bending to the rich and powerful. Turns out he’s just another black-hearted opportunist."

In less than half an hour, rumors began to swirl everywhere.

Meanwhile, Meng Yi, who was stationed at the entrance of the ICU, also caught wind of the speculation.

She immediately rose to her feet and hurried to the third-floor Acupuncture room.

Reaching the door, she took a deep breath and shouted at the tightly shut room.

"Dean Li, please save my boyfriend! If you don’t help him now, he’ll be paralyzed for the rest of his life!"

The next second, the door opened.

Li Chongbai stepped out and, with the compassion of a healer, asked, "Young lady, who is your boyfriend?"

Meng Yi’s face lit up upon seeing him, and she quickly said, "My boyfriend is Luo Ji, the patient in the ICU on the fifth floor. Dean Li, if you can cure him, I’ll pay any amount necessary!"

Li Chongbai quickly recalled who it was and found Meng Yi somewhat familiar as well.

"Young lady, are you also in the medical field?"

Meng Yi nodded. "Yes, I’m a third-year medical student at A University. My name is Meng Yi. You even lectured at our school before. I was one of the top student representatives."

Li Chongbai nodded, acknowledging, "Meng Yi, since you’re a medical student, you should understand that your boyfriend’s injury isn’t a matter of money; it requires time to heal slowly."

"Moreover, his situation is quite special. The specific treatment plan requires confirmation from his family."

Meng Yi quickly responded, "I *am* his family. I can confirm everything. As long as you do your best to heal him, I’ll accept any treatment plan!"

Li Chongbai explained, "Meng Yi, you’re his girlfriend, but you’re not married yet, so legally, you’re not considered his family. His family must be the ones to make the decision."

"The police have already contacted his family, and they should arrive today. You can discuss it with them first."

Checking the time, he added, "I have other patients to see. If you have any questions, you can discuss them with his attending physician."

With that, he went back inside.

Meng Yi wanted to say more, but the door closed right in front of her. At the same time, a voice came from inside.

"That murderer deserves to be paralyzed."

——

On the other side.

Nan Yu had her eye on an apartment in the same complex as Song Yingqing, though on a different floor.

She spent the entire afternoon searching for an appropriate apartment but hadn’t found a suitable one yet, deciding to continue the search the next day.

When she returned to the building of Song Yingqing’s apartment, she looked up and saw lights on inside, shadows moving about.

Her guard went up instantly. She picked up a brick from downstairs and cautiously went upstairs.

At the entrance to the apartment, she found the door wide open, the interior in complete disarray, as if it had been burgled.

Nan Yu’s heart tightened. She quickly pulled out her phone to call the police.

The next second, she heard the sound of something being smashed inside the bedroom.

She immediately tightened her grip on the brick in her hand and approached the doorway, pushing the door open.

Inside, she saw Song Yingqing, with crimson hair, smashing a phone in anger.

Nan Yu froze in place, quickly discarding the brick, and asked nervously, "Yingqing, you’re back? Weren’t you in C City? What happened?"

Song Yingqing’s eyes blazed with fury, her jaw clenched as she said, "The deal in C City suddenly fell apart. Before I could figure it out, my agent told me to come back immediately to discuss terminating my contract."

——

First, Nan Yu sent a message to Song Yingqing.

[Yingqing, are you back?]

Song Yingqing replied quickly.

[I’m still in C City. What’s up?]

Nan Yu pursed her lips tightly, not wanting to worry Yingqing, and sent a reassuring response.

[Nothing, just thought I saw someone like you and mistook them for you.]

After that, she put her phone away, looking up at the higher floors with a wary expression.

She

had only climbed two flights of stairs before she heard a rough voice coming from above.

"Where’s Nan Yu?"

Nan Yu immediately stopped in her tracks, listening closely to the voices upstairs.

A timid yet defiant voice replied, "You said Nan Yu lived at my sister’s place. This is my sister’s house; I already opened the door for you. Now that Nan Yu isn’t here, how can you blame me?"

As soon as Nan Yu heard that voice, she recognized it. It was Song Yingqing’s half-brother, the illegitimate child, Song Yao.
