After taking a shower, Jingyu moved out all the boxes that were pressed at the bottom of the cabinet.
There were some jewellery inside. She picked them up one by one, estimated the price, and bought as many as she could.
My father needs money for hospitalization; Jingrong needs money for school; and there are also those heavy debts...
"Yu'er, these are all the relics your mother left for you!"
"Yeah." Jing Yu didn't say much, but he had already thought about it. Being able to get by was more important than anything else.
Qi Jinnian sighed, "How about I go and ask our old Qi to think of a solution for you?"
"Don't be so foolish as to ask this question, or you will be scolded." Jing Yu said sternly, "No one dares to get involved in our affairs now. Your old Qi is an official, so he can't get involved in this mess."
Qi Jinnian pursed her lips. Although she was reckless, she knew the importance of the matter.
——
The next day, Qi Jinnian excitedly called her at her workplace.
"Fish, I'm so excited!"
"What's wrong?"
"Guess who I just met!"
Qi Jinnian was keeping things mysterious. Jingyu was thinking about the surgery just now, and answered absentmindedly, "Which famous star?"
"Tsk~ What's a star? It's not like I haven't seen him before. He's much harder to see than a star!" Qi Jinnian said to himself, "It's Mr. Yu! Mr. Yu Zeyao!"
"oh."
"That's it?" Her reaction made Qi Jinnian feel very bored, so he asked again, "Yu'er, don't you know who Yu Zeyao is?"
"Which one?" In order not to spoil Jinnian's fun, she forced her thoughts back.
"See, I knew it." Qi Jinnian introduced helplessly: "He is our future vice president, but he has not officially taken office yet, so it's not surprising that you don't know him. He suddenly came to our Ministry of Education for an inspection today. That scene, that momentum, oh, our old Qi is far behind him! Do you know what the most important thing is?"
"Um?"
"He's so handsome. He's not like Lao Qi with a big belly at all! He's handsome, young, and energetic... I'm almost crazy about him."
Jing Yu laughed, "You're not 'wanting', you're already being infatuated with her."
Now her life was a mess, Jing Yu didn't have much interest in or attention to unfamiliar people and things. Naturally, that name didn't catch her ear.
As she was talking, the head nurse of the VIP building hurried over to her. Jing Yu glanced at her and said, "Niannian, I won't talk to you for now. An important patient must have arrived."
She hung up the phone. The head nurse asked, "Doctor Xiao Jing, where is Professor Luo?"
"My master is on a business trip today. What's the matter?" She put the phone into the pocket of her white coat.
Upon hearing this, the head nurse's face turned grim. "It's over! There is a very important VIP patient. She has some inconvenience in her legs and feet. In the past, Professor Luo would personally come to her home to give her a massage. But just now, she suddenly called and asked for someone to come over."
Jing Yu frowned, "Does it have to be Professor Luo?"
"She's not an ordinary patient." The head nurse looked nervous, "I'll call Professor Luo to ask."
She went to make a phone call. When she came back from the call, her face looked even uglier.
"Doctor Xiao Jing, Professor Luo asked you to go. His technique is so good, and you are his apprentice, why don't you go and give it a try?"
"Is it possible?" Jing Yu saw that the head nurse did not look relaxed.
The head nurse was also unsure, "There's no other way. Since Professor Luo recommended you, we can only do this for now."
There is no way to shirk this matter. Jing Yu nodded, "I will go to the inpatient department to see my dad first and tell him before I leave."
"Okay, let's go now."
When Jing Yu went to the inpatient building, Jing Chaochen was still lying unconscious on the bed with various tubes inserted into his body. In just a few days, he had lost weight from his normal weight to just skin and bones.
Since the incident at the Liang family, Jing Chaochen's current wife has never appeared again. In addition to Jing Yu, her brother Jing Rong would also come over whenever he was free on weekends. But Jing Yu usually asked Jing Rong to go back early because he was about to take the college entrance examination and didn't want him to be distracted during this special period.
"Doctor Jing, the car has arrived outside the hospital, please get off quickly." She had only stood there for a while when someone from the VIP building called her.
Jingyu did not delay. The patients received by Beisiyuan Hospital were either rich or noble, especially those in the VIP building. They could not afford any delay.
Jing Yu went downstairs in a white robe. A black business car stopped outside the clinic building. The driver recognized her at a glance. When he saw her coming, he got out of the car and opened the back door. "Doctor Jing, please get in."
The other party was very serious and wore white gloves.
"Thank you." Jing Yu took a quick look and got into the car.
———————
The car drove a long way. After leaving the city center, it drove dozens of kilometers and finally drove into a manor and stopped in front of a huge villa.
Jing Yu got out of the car, and the driver said respectfully, "Doctor, please go in. The lady is already waiting."
Jing Yu went in as he was told. The villa was very large, and the furnishings inside were all ancient, exquisite and delicate. It seemed that the lady of this house was also a person of great taste.
When she reached the porch, a servant came up to hand her slippers. She bent over to change her shoes and heard the servant's voice inside: "Sir, the doctor is here."
"Please ask her to come up." A young man's voice came from the second floor. The voice was very charming, even more charming than those of radio DJs.
Jing Yu only felt that the voice sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before. However, after thinking about it carefully, he could not figure out why.
She was led upstairs by the servant, who knocked cautiously on the door before entering.
"Madam." The servant introduced the person behind him, "This is the doctor I invited for you."
Madam looked up at her from her seat on the bed, "Are you Professor Luo's apprentice?"
"Hello." Jing Yu nodded and greeted the other party. As she expected, the other party was an extremely elegant lady.
Although she is middle-aged, she is well maintained and her smooth and radiant face does not show her age. She is covered with a light grey silk quilt, with her arms exposed.
"You don't look very old." The lady looked at her.
"Not too young. He's already 25 this year." Jing Yu was worried that the other party might not be confident in his medical skills, so he tried to appear more steady.
"25 is still a child. Zeyao, you're already 30." When the lady said this, she turned her head to look at the young man who had been sitting by the bed without saying a word.
Only then did Jing Yu's gaze also look to the side.
