Chapter 112: Chapter 112 Mrs. Xiao’s Identity Begins to Be Exposed (8)

If it hadn’t been for their mutual needs, her world would have had no chance of intersecting with this man’s.

After stuffing her into the backseat of his car, Xiao Yebai instructed, "Go to Doctor Tang’s."

The Audi left the construction site and clearly made a U-turn towards the city center.

Before coming to Changda, Gu Nuan had conducted background checks and research about Changda. Naturally, the information she could obtain was mostly the official material released by Changda.

Accordingly, she knew that her boss, Xiao Jianming, was actually in his sixties, nearing seventy.

The substantial early profits and quickly accumulated wealth in real estate had swiftly placed Xiao Jianming among the ranks of the world’s wealthy elite. With an abundance of wealth, besides investing and expanding his empire, why not use the money for charitable causes like other well-known tycoons, and gain a noble reputation that would last for ages?

After all, money cannot be taken to the grave.

Therefore, some years ago, Xiao Jianming established a charitable foundation in cooperation with the government. Together, they founded a university and, relying on this university, built a public hospital in partnership with the government known as Mingxin Hospital.

Because Xiao Jianming was willing to invest generously in both the school and hospital, the Xiao Family’s educational and medical facilities, as well as their talent, were world-class.

Gu Nuan recalled that Su Yixia’s brother, Su Yide, seemed to work at Mingxin Hospital.

It was said that Su Yide had used his connections to get the job at the hospital. Otherwise, with Su Yide’s less than stellar academic record, the best he could have hoped for in such a renowned hospital would have been a temporary contract position.

Su Yixia had complained quite a bit to Gu Nuan, suggesting that her brother was good for nothing other than sucking up to people.

Gu Nuan had only seen Su Yide a few times and did not have a deep impression of him. As for the matters of the Su Family, she lacked interest since those were their private affairs, and she, being an outsider, had no place to judge.

After about an hour, they arrived at the hospital. Instead of passing through the bustling main entrance, the Audi went through a back entrance reserved for hospital staff only.

Upon entering the back, Xiao Yebai didn’t head for the emergency department. Instead, having carried her out of the car, he rushed directly into a hospital building.

Gu Nuan had developed a slight fever along the way, having been exposed to the chilly wind for several hours.

When she began to feel a bit better and opened her eyes, she saw a man’s face close to hers, observing her.

His was an extremely clean and neatly kept face, without a trace of stubble on the chin, his eyebrows groomed more meticulously than a woman’s, giving him a very clean, fair complexion, and his features exuded an air of clear-sighted brightness.

A white coat, a white shirt, and a jet-black side-swept fringe. He looked like a stylish and handsome movie star but possessed a pair of professional looking eyes. His pupils were deep, his silent demeanor as if his exterior masked a layer of unspeakable ice.

The pungent smell of disinfectant filled her nostrils.

Gu Nuan thought this person must be the Doctor Tang they spoke of.

"I believe there’s nothing serious. There’s no need for injections, just take some medicine," Doctor Tang said after checking her pulse and other signs.

Discussing her medical condition, Gu Nuan took another look at the doctor. His demeanor was neither stern like an old professor nor brimming with youthful arrogance like some young doctors who’d found early success. Rather, it was marked by a faint indifference.

One could only say that the people around Xiao Yebai each had their unique traits.

Gu Nuan could only think of one phrase at this moment—birds of a feather flock together.

After saying this, Doctor Tang turned and walked away.

Clearly, Gu Nuan’s condition wasn’t serious. It was indeed true. It was nothing more than a cold with a slight fever, something that a few cold and fever-reducing tablets could handle. Yet someone was overly anxious and insisted on taking her to a major hospital, and in the middle of the night at that, summoning a prominent doctor who was asleep to see a patient with a mild cold.
