Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Is this a den of tigers and wolves?
Yin Hehe had once again become Han Lina.
When she was brought to the hospital the next day, her inconspicuous appearance, coupled with the attire of a Xiahou Family servant, aroused little suspicion.
"Old General, this is?"
"From now on, aside from the attending physician and the head nurse, we won’t need any other nursing staff; she’ll take care of everything."
Xiahou Yi had brought her to the hospital director’s office and gave a brief introduction.
The director immediately understood what was going on.
This director had a good relationship with Xiahou Yi; they had studied abroad together when they were young and later delved deep into the Military Department.
Hence, he could be considered one of Xiahou Yi’s more trustworthy friends.
So Yin Hehe stayed in the hospital.
It was around this time that she finally understood Sheng Siyuan’s current condition.
"He was shot with two bullets—the one that hit his scapula isn’t a big deal, but the critical one pierced through his lung."
After some prying, the head nurse told her everything in detail.
"Two bullets?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe immediately recalled the large dried bloodstain she had seen in the hotel and, in a fit of anger, her fingers clenched tightly.
It seemed that the bullet in the scapula was fired by Xiahou Yi.
That old bastard!
Why did he need to be so vicious? If it hadn’t been for his shot, Sheng Siyuan would never have been hit by the second bullet from Chu Yan.
"So what is his condition now? If the bullet has been removed, why hasn’t he woken up?"
"Due to excessive blood loss, and because the bullet hit near his heart, to be honest with you, it’s already fortunate he’s still alive."
The nurse sighed.
Her thoughts drifted back to the day they rushed to Chongzhou for the emergency operation—it was truly a precarious and gruesome scene.
If it weren’t for the director’s excellent medical skills, this man would have been gone.
"Actually, you don’t need to worry; as long as he wakes up, there won’t be a problem."
Seeing Yin Hehe bow her head in silence after hearing this, the nurse imagined she was worried and upset.
So she offered words of comfort.
Yin Hehe looked at her...
What if he doesn’t wake up?
She wanted to ask.
But in the end, she didn’t have the courage to do so because she couldn’t allow that possibility to become reality.
Yin Hehe changed into the hospital’s nursing staff uniform.
Two days later, just as she was about to head up to the VIP ward early in the morning, she suddenly saw two people inquiring at the information desk about the patients in the VIP ward.
"Nurse, I am from the Xiahou family. I heard one of my uncles is hospitalized here; do you know which room he is in?"
"I don’t know."
Seeing they did not provide the specific name of the patient, the nurse immediately refused them.
The two men became agitated, and slamming the gift they were carrying onto the counter, the younger man said, "How could you not know? It’s the Xiahou family, you hear that, the Xiahou family!"
He repeated it twice.
The Xiahou family? Could they be here to visit my husband?
Yin Hehe paused, planning to step forward and ask.
However, at that moment, a middle-aged man entered, carrying a birdcage. Seeing the two causing a commotion at the nurse’s station, he went up to the younger man and pulled his ear without a word.
"Xiahou Shaojie, are you asking for a beating? How dare you create a ruckus in a place like this!"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" With his ear being tugged, the young man cried out in pain.
"Third Uncle, I’m not here to cause trouble; I just want to see my uncle whom I’ve never met. Look, I even brought gifts."
He rubbed his ears and said with a touch of grievance.
Another person by his side jumped in to explain, "Yes, Third Master, our young master just heard that his uncle was hospitalized and wanted to come for a visit. You know how Grandpa has always doted on the young master. Now that his son is in the hospital, it’s only right for him to come and see him, isn’t it?"
The words sounded quite complicated.
However, Yin Hehe always had a strong ability to understand logic. After briefly sorting it out, she was able to grasp the relationships amongst these people.
These two must be here to visit Sheng Siyuan.
They’re from the Xiahou Family, but not from the line of Xiahou Yi, rather they’re descendants of his brothers.
As for the man holding the birdcage, referred to as Third Uncle, he must be a higher-ranking member of the Xiahou clan, perhaps of the same generation as Xiahou Maolin, his cousin.
Having clarified the relationships, Yin Hehe was about to step forward to tell them that she could take them up to visit.
But then, her sharp eyes noticed the man with the birdcage constantly signaling to the younger man.
Weren’t they simply passing by?
Why the need for secret signals?
Yin Hehe’s footsteps, just lifted, halted again. Just at that moment, the nurse was fooled by their act and disclosed the location of the ward.
"Oh, so you’re all from the Xiahou family. The patient is in the VIP ward area. Please go ahead and visit," she said.
"Great!"
The three of them were immediately overjoyed.
Watching them excitedly rush towards the elevator, Yin Hehe suddenly felt a surge of alertness.
Before her arrival, the old butler had only warned her not to let outsiders know that Sheng Siyuan was staying here and especially not to reveal that he was the illegitimate son discovered by Xiahou Yi.
But he hadn’t mentioned anything about the Xiahou family members.
Yin Hehe followed them upstairs.
However, upon reaching the VIP floor, she saw that as soon as these people exited the elevator, their excitement intensified at the sight of the entrance ahead.
"Remember to take photos when you see him, got it?"
"Right, we need the photos to determine his identity!" said the young man after the middle-aged man holding the birdcage gave the order.
He immediately took out his phone.
Yin Hehe saw this, and abruptly, her amber eyes grew cold. Just as they were about to step in,
she dashed forward and blocked their way.
"What are you doing? Move aside!" the young man yelled upon seeing Yin Hehe, dressed in a caretaker’s uniform, blocking his path.
But Yin Hehe stood her ground, unmoved.
"I’m sorry, but this area is private and strictly for VIPs. Without permission, outsiders are not allowed to enter," she said coldly.
In an instant, her words fell, and the young man’s face turned fierce immediately.
"What the hell are you? Do you even know who I am? How dare you stand in my way!" he cursed, pointing fiercely at Yin Hehe’s nose.
Seeing this, the Third Uncle darkened his face and warned in a slow, deliberate tone, "Are you saying you don’t want to work here anymore?"
"You’ve got to be joking. I’m not one of the staff here, I was sent by General Xiahou himself," Yin Hehe finally retorted, folding her arms and staring down these people as she revealed her own identity.
As her words sunk in, the group deflated like balloons, their faces turning green as they stood there unable to make another sound.
Xiahou Yi’s people!
Staring dumbfounded at Yin Hehe’s retreating back as she turned and went inside, they appeared as if struck by frost.
