Afterward, very anxiously, it wanted to remind its master, but it was afraid. Its master’s state of mind was unstable. Anything could trigger her Heart Demon. It feared that if it spoke up, it would bring the Heart Demon upon Situ Xin.

While Baibai was frantically scratching its head in the space, it suddenly sensed that something touched Situ Xin’s state of mind and it stabilized.

Seeing this, Baibai breathed a sigh of relief. It didn’t care why Situ Xin’s mind had stabilized. Seeing the outcome was enough for it.

Situ Xin was unaware that Baibai in the space had been frightened on her behalf. Baibai did not bring up the matter again.

Inside the hospital room.

Loo Jianxin had gone to Gao Yong to request an additional hospital bed in Situ Xin’s room.

Gao Yong readily agreed to this request. After all, it wasn’t anything that violated principles—just a small matter of adding a bed to a hospital room. Why would he, Gao Yong, object? However, if it had been anyone else, this wouldn’t have been so easily agreed upon.

But today, even if others, or even ordinary patients’ families, approached Gao Yong with this request, he might still have agreed. His mood was good after all.

Situ Xin’s fever had subsided. She had regained consciousness, and there wasn’t even the slightest post-fever sequelae. This allowed Gao Yong, who had been tormented by Situ Xin’s family and the two old generals all night, and whose heart had been suspended mid-air, to finally breathe a complete sigh of relief.

Not just the hospital director Gao Yong—in the military hospital, all doctors and nurses involved in Situ Xin’s medical treatment sighed deeply with relief when they heard that Situ Xin had woken up, feeling jubilant that they had dodged a bullet.

When Situ Xin’s condition remained uncontrollable, these doctors and nurses had braced themselves for the possibility of being dismissed in the event of Situ Xin’s demise. Such fears were all because Old Master Situ, Old Master Loo, Situ Haotian, and others looked furiously at the intensive care unit doorway, giving off the ancient emperor’s vibe that if they couldn’t save someone’s life, the whole lot of them should be buried in accompaniment.

No matter the process, as long as the result was good, it was acceptable. Despite being tormented for some time, these doctors and nurses had apparently recovered from their scars and forgotten their pain. They had entirely forgotten their fear of facing the old generals and were now eagerly vying to help when they learned that an additional bed was to be added to Situ Xin’s room.

They had their little calculations, but hospital director Gao Yong saw right through them. It was clear as day—Situ Xin’s recovery meant they saw an opportunity to make an impression on the generals and possibly advance their careers.

Gao Yong was aware but didn’t interfere. He knew much better than these opportunistic doctors and nurses that someone couldn’t simply climb the ladder by currying favor with these retired generals. These little schemes would be instantly exposed in their presence.

Indeed, seeing the suddenly bustling and somewhat crowded hospital room, the old masters and old madam were well aware that these people had ulterior motives. Under normal circumstances, Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo would have turned a blind eye, not caring at all. But unfortunately for these people, they had run right into the guns of the two old masters, who were already upset that their treasured baby had been preyed upon by the big bad wolf Xiao Muli without their knowledge. Moreover, they were even more annoyed that Xiao Muli had successfully moved into Situ Xin’s room.

However, unable to vent their anger and displeasure because their old wife was there, they felt even more frustrated. And now, to make matters worse, here were these doctors and nurses, displaying such eagerness.

Now, in the eyes of these two old masters, all these doctors and nurses were antagonists, siding with Xiao Muli to steal their baby.

"Why have you all come here all of a sudden? Do you all have nothing better to do?" Old Master Situ was the first to express his indignant feelings towards the doctors and nurses, who had just finished their tasks and were preparing to show concern for Situ Xin to increase their visibility.

The loud reprimand from Old Master Situ caught the bustling doctors and nurses off guard. They looked at each other, clueless about where they might have offended the old general.

Before they could figure it out, Old Master Loo also spoke, "Exactly, what’s the need for so many of you to fuss over such a small matter? What’s this, has your hospital overstaffed you to the point of idleness? If that’s the case, I’ll give the Minister of Health a call later, to have him reassign your hospital staff."

Old Master Loo’s words shocked the doctors and nurses even further. They never imagined that their effort to make a good impression would provoke such a reaction from the two old generals, who were now threatening to have the Minister of Health reorganize the hospital staff.

The doctors and nurses stood dumbfounded, and upon hearing Old Master Loo’s words outside the room, Gao Yong panicked, his forehead breaking out in cold sweat. He was confused—these people had only come to help set up a bed. How had they managed to infuriate the two old generals so?

Although puzzled, Gao Yong wiped the sweat from his brow, knocked on the door, and entered. After stepping in, he first glanced at his hospital’s doctors and nurses, then turned with a smile to Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo, saying, "What’s wrong, esteemed generals? Why this anger? If anyone from our hospital has offended you, please tell me directly."

"Hmph. I say, Gao Yong, what kind of director are you? Can’t even manage your doctors and nurses. It seems I’ll need to have a word with your grandfather," Old Master Situ’s anger wasn’t restricted to the medical staff, and now it was extending to Gao Yong as well.
