Chapter 246: Resisting Jinghang and Questioning Mother Lu

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Huo Xiaoran’s pupils suddenly constricted as his scrutinizing gaze landed on Qiao An’s face.

Qiao An usually looked at a woman who was like a tiger, but she treated the Lu family as a big tiger.

Mother Lu clenched her fists at Qiao An’s sharp tongue. “Qiao An, I kindly advised you to stay in the hospital for observation, but my good intentions were treated as ill intentions. It’s up to you whether to stay or not. When your lungs are all infected, don’t blame Jinghang Hospital for not treating you well.”

She thought that her words would scare Qiao An because she had seen too many patients abandon their dignity in order to preserve their lives. She decided that the seriously ill Qiao An would also be at her mercy.

Unexpectedly, Qiao An said, “Qiao He, transfer me to another hospital.”

Qiao An’s words were full of information.

Jinghang Hospital was the best general hospital in the capital. Yet Qiao An was asking to be transferred. There was a strong sense of suspense.

Madam Lu and Lu Mo looked surprised because their intuition told them that Qiao An might already suspect that they had ill intentions towards her.

Mrs. Lu was a woman who had experienced all kinds of storms. Faced with Qiao An’s doubts, she could still squeeze out an elegant and calm smile and question Qiao An, “Qiao An, I know that my driver has hurt you and made you very dissatisfied with our Lu family. However, you have to know that the person who treated you at Jinghang Hospital does not bear our surname. Why are you joking about your body?”

Qiao An looked at her coldly. Perhaps her brain had been fried, but at this moment, her words and actions seemed unstable.

“The doctor’s surname is not Lu, but Jinghang Hospital is owned by the Lu family. Am I right? Mrs. Lu.”

Qiao An hit the nail on the head by saying that the Lu family controlled Jinghang Hospital and did some evil things. This made Mrs. Lu and Lu Mo’s hearts tremble, afraid that the smart Huo Xiaoran would hear something.

Lu Mo carefully glanced at Huo Xiaoran, but saw that he was expressionless and standing there quietly. No one knew what he was thinking.

He had always been unpredictable.

Mrs. Lu flew into a rage out of humiliation. “Qiao An, you’re treating our kindness as ill intent. In that case, leave if you want to. Otherwise, after your condition worsens, you’ll wrongly accuse our Jinghang Hospital.”

Qiao He snorted and rolled her eyes at Mother Lu.

He walked to Qiao An’s side and bent over. “Sister, I’ll carry you.”

Lu Mo pulled Huo Xiaoran and probed carefully, “Senior, quickly persuade Qiao An. She’s still sick. It’s not appropriate to transfer her to another hospital now.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at the haggard Qiao An. He walked up to her and said gently, “The director of the respiratory department of Jinghang Hospital is my good friend. He has studied lung disease thoroughly and the treatment method is very green. An’an, you can rest here and recuperate. This illness must be treated thoroughly. Otherwise, it will be easy to relapse in the future.”

Huo Xiaoran spoke up for Lu Mo, which made Lu Mo very happy. At least this proved that Huo Xiaoran didn’t believe Qiao An’s words.

Qiao He roared at Huo Xiaoran excitedly, “Can you guarantee my sister’s safety?”

Huo Xiaoran nodded.

Qiao He sneered at him. “Tsk, who would believe you? If you were really capable of protecting my sister these past few years, she wouldn’t have suffered so much.”

Huo Xiaoran’s heart ached terribly because of Qiao He’s words.

Had he not protected Qiao An?

After all, he had allowed her to marry Li Zecheng and did not managed to prevent Li Changhai from getting to her?

Although he didn’t know the details, he wasn’t stupid. Li Zecheng and the Lu family were both related to him. Qiao An was implicated by him.

At this moment, when Qiao He condemned him, he felt extremely guilty towards Qiao An.

“Put me down, Qiao He,” Qiao An said suddenly.

Qiao He listened to his sister the most and placed Qiao An on the hospital bed again.

Huo Xiaoran instructed Qiao He and Xiao Yue, “The two of you stay here and guard Qiao An. I’ll help An’an find a doctor.”

“Okay,” Xiao Yue and Qiao He said in unison.

Soon, Huo Xiaoran found Director Sun.

From afar, he saw the two of them whispering to each other. Director Sun nodded solemnly and echoed Huo Xiaoran.

After Director Sun entered the ward, he walked straight to Qiao An and listened to her lungs before formulating a treatment plan.

“Xiaoran, from my experience, Miss Qiao An’s illness is most likely pneumonia. However, in view of Miss Qiao An’s low immune system, she still has to undergo infusion treatment.”

Huo Xiaoran fell into deep thought.

After a while, he asked Director Sun solemnly, “Can she take medicine to control her inflammation?”

Director Sun said, “That depends on Miss Qiao An’s sensitivity to drugs. If used, there’s an anti-infection drug, a new drug developed by Angel Group. Can we try it?”

Mrs. Lu immediately protested, “Director Sun, what nonsense are you talking about? Since Qiao An is receiving treatment at Jinghang Hospital, how can she accept medicine from other sources? This is against the rules. If anything happens to Qiao An, who will be responsible?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I’ll be responsible.”

Mrs. Lu was dumbfounded.

Then, she said sarcastically, “Xiaoran, what’s your relationship with her? Why are you responsible for her?”

Huo Xiaoran’s sharp gaze swept over. Mother Lu had never seen Huo Xiaoran’s fierce and warning gaze.

“If Jinghang Hospital still wants to work with Angel Group, then please keep your mouth shut.”

Mrs. Lu was immediately speechless.

Angel Group’s drugs generally had small side effects, long-lasting efficacy, and high safety performance. Therefore, all the major hospitals were now prioritizing Angel Group’s drugs.

Jinghang Hospital could become the most reputable hospital in the capital because they valued the choice of medicine. If they lost the supply of medicine from the Angel Group, they would probably lose patients.

In this era where competitiveness was increasing day by day, Jinghang Hospital would probably be overtaken by Capital City Hospital in a few years.

Huo Xiaoran asked Qiao An for her opinion again. “An’an, there are too many antibiotics on the other end. Would you try the new oral anti-inflammatory medicine developed by the Angel Group?”

Qiao An knew that Huo Xiaoran had been determined to be a doctor since he was young. His medical skills and medical ethics were rare.

She trusted him.

“Yeah.”

Just like that, Director Sun developed a new treatment plan for Qiao An. In this plan, all Qiao An had to do was take medicine every day, then undergo atomization with some physical acne removal therapy.

All the medicine was prescribed by Dr. Sun. Huo Xiaoran personally went to the pharmacy to get the medicine and handed it to Qiao He.

The entire treatment process was tightly packed, making it impossible for outsiders to interfere.

Mrs. Lu gritted her teeth in her office. “What does Huo Xiaoran mean? Does he suspect me?”
