165: Chapter 164: Stepping Forward 165: Chapter 164: Stepping Forward Chen Qiuya imdiately panicked, stamping her feet in anxiety.
If this got out, she wouldn’t be able to face anyone ever again.
She had no choice but to cast a pleading look at Liu Hun, believing, as she always had, that this man could play the most crucial role when it mattered most!
“Wait!
Just wait!
Both of you, wait for !
I’m reporting to the hospital and county leadership right away!
Let them see what kind of trash you two are!” After He Mingfu finished speaking, he turned to prepare to dress and leave, but suddenly felt soone patting him on the back.
As he turned around…
“Smack!” A slap landed on his face!
He Mingfu spat out two teeth in a daze and hadn’t even managed to curse before he blankly took a punch to the face, followed by a kick to the lower abdon.
Just as his body was about to lean back, Liu Hun swiftly caught his chin in his hand.
“Rember today’s lesson!
The consequences of spewing garbage from your mouth!” After Liu Hun finished speaking, there was a “crack” as he twisted He Mingfu’s jaw.
He Mingfu, never having suffered this kind of abuse in his life, passed out from the pain.
“He…
he’s not dead, is he?” Chen Qiuya asked Liu Hun nervously.
Liu Hun pulled Chen Qiuya over, keeping her away from the wardrobe, before saying to her, “He won’t die, I know my limits.
Hurry up and get dressed!”
Chen Qiuya’s face imdiately blushed with a touch of shyness as she hastily picked up her clothes and white coat and got dressed.
“Dr.
He?!
Dr.
Chen?!
What are you doing?”
Just as Chen Qiuya was fully dressed, the second wave of people urging hurriedly called their nas and opened the door—this ti, it was Director Zhou Ji and Mayor Xiao Yanzi!
“What…
what is going on here?
What happened to Dr.
He…
and who are you?” Zhou Ji was completely befuddled as he entered, finding He Mingfu lying on the ground in his underwear, covered in bruises and blood, while Chen Qiuya stood there seemingly fine, but the person next to her was a complete stranger.
“Liu Hun?!
What are you doing here?” Xiao Yanzi asked with a frown.
After the agricultural fair selection, Li Tianyang had taken the credit for resolving the arms smuggling case, while she was assigned the task of handling the reception of dical experts at the county hospital.
Liu Hun quickly organized his thoughts and relayed the events that had transpired.
However, according to his version, the story hadn’t changed much.
He wasn’t hiding in the wardrobe; instead, he had co from outside, intending to visit Chen Qiuya, and happened to walk in on He Mingfu attacking her.
“Even if Dr.
He behaved improperly…
surely that didn’t warrant knocking him unconscious?!
There’s a whole group of experts and professors waiting for him outside!
Dr.
He is our hospital’s and county’s representative!
With him like this, what are we going to do?” Director Zhou’s urgency spiked, never imagining that such a scandal would erupt at a critical ti.
Xiao Yanzi glanced disdainfully at He Mingfu, lying in his underwear, a man unworthy of her use even had she the choice.
Turning to Zhou Ji, she asked, “Director Zhou, can our hospital reassign a representative?”
“That…
Mayor Xiao, I must tell you, He Mingfu was transferred to our county hospital because of his lifestyle problems.
The people waiting outside are top national experts and professors, and the only one we can count on is He Mingfu,” Zhou Ji replied, voicing difficulty before asking Xiao Yanzi, “Mayor Xiao, since this is just an academic exchange symposium, why don’t we just say Dr.
He is ill and be done with it?”
“No way!
Fire He Mingfu; I wouldn’t keep such a person even if he were competent!
Find soone else!” Xiao Yanzi firmly rejected Zhou Ji’s suggestion.
Li Tianyang had snagged a great deal, dumping this arduous task on her.
If she couldn’t deliver a performance, she’d lose face.
Moreover, it wasn’t just about face, but also significant interests, as this incident sowhat affected pharmaceutical company investnts.
“Replace him with whom?” Zhou was near tears, finding it increasingly difficult to communicate with leadership who were only focused on results, completely disregarding challenges.
“!”
At the drop of this word, not only did it taphorically cause a crater on the ground, but it also stunned everyone present.
All eyes turned toward the source of the interruption—Liu Hun!
“You?
Who are you?!” Zhou Ji cocked his head, questioning Liu Hun, suspecting he might be a patient who had escaped from the psychiatric ward.
Liu Hun straightened his clothes and walked up to Zhou Ji, announcing, “Farr from Wanbao Village of Taiping Town—Liu Hun!”
“Ah?!” Zhou Ji’s mouth involuntarily opened into an “O” shape.
“That’s right—Liu Hun!
Don the white coat!
Let’s move!” Xiao Yanzi decisively declared, leaving no room for doubt.
“Ah?!” Zhou Ji’s jaw dropped to the ground, truly believing Xiao Yanzi must have found so other lifelong pursuit, no longer intending to be mayor to make such a statent.
But as for Zhou, he truly wanted to continue as the director.
With national experts and professors outside, Xiao Yanzi had actually settled on a farr to represent the hospital!
When they reached the largest lawn of the county hospital, everyone felt Director Zhou wouldn’t last many more days.
His expression was ashen, his walk limp as if boneless.
Both Chen Qiuya and Xiao Yanzi had full confidence in Liu Hun, having witnessed his capabilities.
As for Liu Hun himself, he had no choice but to accompany Xiao Yanzi, leaving the bewitching woman in the wardrobe’s origin for future investigation.
On the hospital lawn, soone had evidently taken a cue from abroad and started a cocktail party.
Groups of three to five people gathered, talking and chatting.
Chen Qiuya was dragged off by a round-faced female doctor, inquiring about the earlier dressing room incident, while Xiao Yanzi accompanied several old n in conversation.
Liu Hun didn’t know what the eting was about, no one had notified him, so he could only wander about, with thoughts of the woman in the closet constantly on his mind.
As he was preoccupied, Liu Hun aimlessly made his way to an inconspicuous corner of the lawn.
“Ouch!”
While brooding over the enchanting woman, Liu Hun suddenly heard a woman’s cry.
Snapping back to attention, he saw a frail girl had fallen on the lawn, with a wheelchair placed beside her.
Liu Hun hurried over, reaching out to help the girl on the ground, but he heard her say between gasps, “I can’t move my lower body.”
Liu Hun imdiately understood, hurriedly adjusted the wheelchair, and then lifted the girl into it.
It was only then that he took a good look at the girl…
or rather, the woman!
Her face was delicate, skin fair and clear, with eyes that seed a bit weary and distant, as if she had just woken up.
Staring at that face, Liu Hun found himself stunned, as if he was witnessing so supre religious ritual, feeling a solemnness wash over him.
Yet, what was more surprising was that the face seed familiar.
Beautiful!
Holy!
Ethereal!
Pure, without a trace of distraction.
“Are you a doctor?” The woman in the wheelchair asked Liu Hun.
Liu Hun snapped out of his daze, was about to shake his head, but looked at his white coat, smiled and nodded saying, “Sort of!”
“Liu Hun…
my na is Bai Nichang,” the woman identified him from the na tag hanging on his chest, a temporary trinket provided by Zhou Ji, written with a pen.
Hearing this na, Liu Hun found it curious and looked at the woman with even more surprise; according to his judgnt of won, she should be in her early twenties, yet she gave off a mature vibe—pure intuition.
“How long have you been in a wheelchair?” Liu Hun asked Bai Nichang, feeling that he might be able to help her.
“For many years,” Bai Nichang said, lowering her head, appearing sowhat saddened.
Although Liu Hun was a man, he was quite thoughtful, and seeing Bai Nichang like this, he said to her, “I can help you stand again.”
“Really?!” Bai Nichang’s eyes suddenly lit up, looking as though her soul had returned to her body, eyes shining as if to pierce through Liu Hun.
Liu Hun nodded and said, “Give your hand, you’ll feel a bit strange in a mont.”
Bai Nichang eagerly nodded, handed him her hand, and Qi imdiately entered her body through her hand.
This Qi, Bai Nichang didn’t know why, seed to gallop like a wild horse within her.
Nevertheless, Liu Hun didn’t pay much attention to it, and after a short while, he withdrew the Qi and asked Bai Nichang, “How do you feel now?”
Bai Nichang let go of Liu Hun’s hand and slowly began to stand, astonishingly on her own.
Watching this scene, Liu Hun was filled with boundless emotion; this sense of achievent was what healing was all about!
“Liu Hun!
Liu Hun!
The eting is starting!” Chen Qiuya called out to Liu Hun from a distance.
After giving Bai Nichang a few instructions, Liu Hun ran over to Chen Qiuya.
Bai Nichang stood beside the wheelchair, watching Liu Hun’s retreating figure; tears stread down her cheeks like a dam breaking, her lips trembling as if she wanted to say sothing.
At the front end of the lawn, a platform had been set up for speeches.
Naturally, the conference began with the leaders, and Xiao Yanzi, with an official smile, said a bunch of inconsequential things.
The content was like pumpkin soil, not very substantial, but the audience took notice of her final statent—the most critical point.
“We at Anchang County and Anchang County Hospital warmly welco Yulong Group to consider investing!” After Xiao Yanzi said these words, her smile appeared a few degrees more sincere.
“I doubt that!”
After Xiao Yanzi finished speaking, not only was there no warm applause, but an older man with slightly graying temples blurted out the remark.
Xiao Yanzi’s smile clearly faltered, completely taken aback by the unexpected disruption.
When she saw who had spoken, she had to suppress her anger, continuing politely with a smile, “Does Professor Tang have any objections or good suggestions?”
Whoosh!
Everyone on the lawn turned to look at this dissenter.
Liu Hun sized up this Professor Tang, utterly ordinary, soone who, if mixed in a crowd, would be impossible to pick out.
Thus, he asked Zhou Ji, the Dean next to him, “Dean Zhou, who is this guy?”
