Chapter 371: 371: Extreme sports???

“So…. as long as the suture on my back recovers completely, I’ll be able to walk?” Zhan Lichuan could feel his voice shaking from the excitement.

Jing Qian showed a seductive smile on her face, and it perfectly matched the temperament of the mask that she was wearing.

“You won’t have to wait that long. You can try walking in two day’s time. But, you just completed a major surgery on your back and injured your vertebrae before this. In the coming two years, your back may hurt once in a while, especially during the cold weather. In this weather, it would be better for you to stay home and keep yourself warm.”

“That’s alright. As long as I can stand up again, I can accept those.”

Forget about being in pain for only two years, he would be able to accept the torturing pain for the rest of his life.

From being completely paralyzed to being able to walk like a normal person, he was already tremendously fortunate.

“Also, you were immobilized for four months. Even though your muscles have been subjected to certain exercises with the help of the machines, there were still a few places where atrophy is seen. Therefore, you shouldn’t rush it.”

“Would I have to come here for any physiotherapy sessions?”

“Well, that won’t be necessary. Just restrain yourself from doing any extreme sports.”

Extreme…. Sports?

Zhan Lichuan was stunned.

What he wanted to ask was how many steps should he take in one day.

But…. his wife’s answer was that he shouldn’t be doing any extreme sports.

It feels like…..

They aren’t on the same channel.

“Okay. I’m leaving. Hong Lu will talk to you about the rest.”

Jing Qian was saying it casually, but Zhan Lichuan quickly noticed how Jing Qian interacted with Hong Lu.

Hong Lu was still the Deputy Director of the Lawrence Institute and was one of the subordinates that Saka loved the most. She might only be a professor that was grade AAA, but she was in charge of the entire institute. In other words, their director, Lawrence, was only responsible for the medical aspect. Professor Hong Lu was the one who was running the institute.

Even if Jing Qian was a genius and became a professor of the Lawrence Institute, it was...

Shouldn’t Hong Lu be the one instructing Jing Qian instead?

But, from today’s surgery, Hong Lu was only the assistant. Other than that, Jing Qian was already ordering her around with all sorts of errands, and she was still treating Hong Lu that way when the surgery was already over.

Jing Qian exited the room, and Hong Lu was the only one left with him. She explained to Zhan Lichuan the precautions to take note of in a friendly manner and even asked him about who to contact regarding the transfers of the shares.

When Zhan Lichuan’s bed went back to the floor above, he noticed the woman who was enjoying her tea in one corner of the room.

Seeing his entrance, Jing Qian smiled and walked over to him.

“How was it? How do you feel? Was it a success?”

As he looked at the woman who had only removed her white coat and the mask, Zhan Lichuan really wanted to ask her how she could be acting so shamelessly right in front of him.

Shouldn’t she be most aware of whether surgery was a success?

“I feel good. Professor J is indeed a smart, gentle, and beautiful woman.”

Zhan Lichuan paid close attention to Jing Qian while he replied, but this woman was acting without any conscience as she smiled and said, “Perhaps it’s because her skills are good and she has saved a lot of people. Don’t they have the saying where those who are kind-hearted are always beautiful? Usually, those who are extremely beautiful definitely would have been a kind-hearted person in this life or in her past lives.”

Zhan Lichuan’s only reply was — “You’re right.”



Chapter 372: 372: Interrogation

“Doctor Xu, please! I found a new job, and it has pretty decent pay. I am an actor now, and I will be able to make a lot of money. As long as you agree to save my son, I will definitely be able to pay for the medical expenses. Plus, I am already one of the assistant researchers in Qing Da’s laboratory. Although my qualifications are still very far away from required, I’ll make sure to work hard. As long as I am qualified to enter the institute, I promise to work hard for this institute for my entire life. Other than the money for the basic needs, I can work for free for the institute. Please! Let me meet with Professor Hong Lu!”

In one of the rooms in the Lawrence Institute branch of H City, there was a woman crying to her doctor.

Zhan Lichuan was already asleep, and Jing Qian was about to walk toward the hidden room downstairs to meet the bunch of idiots when she heard the woman’s voice.

The door was open, so her voice could be heard from outside. Jing Qian stopped when she realized that it was a familiar voice.

“Miss Ling, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but every hospital has its own policy. Your child isn’t suffering from a normal condition, and the only person who would be able to help him is our director. However, you have to know that there are about thousands of people who would want an appointment with our director. We really want to help your son, but he isn’t the only one waiting to be saved, and he isn’t the only child whose life is hanging on a thread.”

“Miss Ling, what are you doing? Please, stand up. Even if you kneel to us for your entire life, it still wouldn’t work. If I am able to do the surgery for him, I would have done it myself, but there’s nothing that I can do for you now.”

“Could you just bring me to Professor Hong Lu? Please!”

Upon hearing what Doctor Xu’s reply was, Jing Qian walked away and called Hong Lu.

“Ling Siqi is one of the actresses on my set. His son seems to be in some trouble. Check it out and see if you can help him.”

“Yes.”

The backyard of the Lawrence Institute is another courtyard, and there are rooms in every corner.

Jing Qian walked toward one of the rooms, pushed the door open, waited for the men to key in the passwords, and walked into the basement that was four floors below.

This was a hidden room that was completely soundproof.

There was a cage inside the room, and in that cage were those men who entered into the Lawrence Institute, trying to look for Zhan Lichuan.

There were some who were hung from the roof with chains, and their hands and feet were tied. There wasn’t a single piece of skin on them that was still unscathed. They were covered in blood with open wounds all over, holding on to their last breath.

Outside the cage, there was a bunch of Tibetian Mastiffs, and their mouths were covered in blood. If it wasn’t because of the cage that was stopping them, those helpless and defenseless men inside would have been left with bones only by now.

Who would have thought that a place so holistic, where they would save people’s lives, would have such a horrible place in it?

Jing Qian looked at the men who were inside the cage and asked, “Have they spoken?”

“Just a bunch of gangsters with no background but there are five grade A mercenaries who were amongst them. They made a deal with someone on the Secret Web, and the other party gave them 10 million. They were told to get ready these few days, and today afternoon, they suddenly received the signal to do their job.”

“What time did they receive the signal?”

“11:45 in the afternoon.”

The corner of her lips rose.

11:45 a.m. was the exact time when she just arrived at the Lawrence Institute.
