"Mom, Uncle Juju, Godmother..."
Everyone silenced seeing the kids enter. Junjie picked Yuyu as she stretched her arms at him. "Godmother, why were you yelling? Did Uncle Juju did sothing again?"
"No one was fighting," Xiu i said, placing Lan on Fei Hong’s bed and she instantly crawled when Hong spread her arms. "Tell , why you all are here? This place is not for kids. You too, Honey."
Honey, who had just got his hands on Wang Shi’s phone, looked up startled. "I’m a man, Ma-ma. You said KIDS."
"Really? Tell Albert Einstein’s law of motion."
"...."
Yuyu, "Who was he?"
Lan, "Isn’t he the man with a bird’s nest on the head? I’ve seen his pic in school. Scary, he looks."
"...."
Honey shoved the phone back into Wang Shi’s pocket, "That..... that is a trick question. Though I don’t know what are the laws of motion, Newton developed it not Einstein. I heard you saying that to Uncle Junjie when he lost his balance in this swimming pool."
Xiu i "...." ’This kid!’
Suyin had a fan-girl mont. If it was not for everyone’s presence, she would have surely eaten him up. ’So cute!!!!!’
Wang Shi, "Jianyu was in a eting. I was passing by, so I volunteered to pick girls. As usual, they demanded to et Honey, but upon knowing Hong was here, all three tagged along. Don’t scold them."
He called Miya and send the kids to his office. Least they catch any infection.
"Suyin, did you find out anything behind those won’s death?" Fei Hong asked. Her words caught Xiu i and Junjie’s attention. Both looked at Suyin in question.
"Not yet. And...."
".... And there are eleven such cases in my hospital too with one death." Wang Shi finished her sentence. "Actually, now there are twelve."
Suyin, "Twelve?"
"Another one is about to co. I’ve sent an ambulance to Southex Hospital. The patient is on her way."
Southex Hospital was just a normal hospital, not a multi-specialty like People’s and Ace.
"How did you find this patient?"
"Actually, she is---"
"Hold on!" Xiu i interrupted, "Can anyone tell us what’s going on? We are the most confused ones here." She pointed at Junjie and herself.
Wang Shi pointed at the couch, "The thing is...."
....
.....
....
"Holy crap! What’s causing their death?" Junjie’s brain short-circuited. "Why only won?"
"We don’t know yet. Infections cause septic shock when harmful bacteria seep into blood. But what’s causing that is still a mystery." Wang Shi answered. "I’ve asked Daiyu to collect data from all the hospitals of this country. I’m sure this problem is not exclusive to Ace or People’s."
"Not only hospitals, but we need information about private clinics as well. Small or big. Tell your assistant to scan everything."
Before Wang Shi could move, Suyin’s words clicked sothing in Xiu i and she stood up to fetch her handbag. "Daiyu will take weeks to get information as wide as this. I’ll do it. With the help of my droids and supercomputers, it’s just a matter of ti as far as the information is available on the internet. Junjie catch!!"
Junjie caught the car keys.
"Get my laptop from the car."
"Sure. Anything I can help you with?" he looked at Wang Shi and Suyin.
"Her interns! They are on the field job to collect data from the families of the deceased and are scattered everywhere. Before it gets dark, send soone to bring them back." Wang Shi instructed. They were just college kids after all, there safety is Suyin’s responsibility and anything related to her is his responsibility.
Suyin twisted in her seat to face him. If he had not done this, she was about to call the ministry to arrange sothing for her interns. Normally this was taken care of by her assistant, but now that he had taken a day off, her work-load had increased.
"Thank you! I really needed this help."
Wang Shi reached to pinch her cheek, "It’s the last ti I’m hearing it."
Junjie "...."
Xiu i "...."
Fei Hong "...."
Junjie, "What just happened?"
Xiu i, "Brother Wang, you pinched her cheek?"
Fei Hong, "I think they forgot to share sothing? Brother Wang, mind telling us."
Wang Shi interlinked his fingers with Suyin’s, "We are dating. Now stop being nosy and get back to work. This is important. JUNJIE...."
"Argh.... Going. Going. But don’t think this is over. I won’t let you go unless you fill with details. Welco to the team, Sister." Before sprinting off, he didn’t forget to look at Fei Hong. As their gaze t, she pursed her lips and looked away.
"I thought it will take you forever to realize, but here you prove wrong. Undoubtedly you are Jianyu’s elder brother. A step ahead! But we will talk about it later." Xiu i fished out her phone, "Does Jianyu knows about it?"
"Yup,"
"Good. He dared keep it a secret, now I’ll make him sleep in the guest room for one month."
"..."
"i, please."
Xiu i gave her phone to Suyin, "I’m fed up of being alienated by these brothers. Today onwards, we will do the sa, okay? Let them know how it feels."
Suyin saved her number on it, not at all surprised how easily she was accepted by them. While confessing, Wang Shi had ntioned about his brother. In fact, he had ntioned him a lot. And what Xiu i just did was expected from Feng Jianyu’s wife. The way she’s loved and respected by everyone, including Honey, tells a lot about her personality.
Wang Shi’s phone brought everyone’s attention to him. He cut the call within three seconds.
"Let’s go. The patient is here."
"You shall go. Let again go through the patient reports I got from you. If you find sothing new, call ."
He caught her elbow, "Trust . You need to see this patient."
"Wang Shi—"
"She’s your assistant’s daughter."
"No, listen. That’s what— Co again!" she recalled Long Tao’s words when he ca in the morning. Family ergency! Her heart pounded.
"When I ca to the cafeteria to get you, I saw him crying."
