Chapter 41: Lost balance (2/2)

VIP Floor

”Why his condition deteriorated since he came here? For God's sake, the random medicines you are giving him have side-effects. You are making him die faster.” Mother Gu lost her patience and cried.

”It was a colossal mistake to get you on the case. And what the hell that Zz or whatever his name is, is doing? Where is he? We want to talk to him? Bring him here,” Father Gu's loud voice broke the mandatory silence of the hospital.

Wang Shi rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache. ”I will say it again. It was your decision to bring me to your son's case, but that doesn't mean I'll wave a magic wand and heal your son. If you are regretting it, take him away, but let me tell you…. if I and Zz cannot solve the mystery, then no other doctor can do it. Do you think we are not doing anything? Here, look at this…”

He opened Gu Feng's case file and showed the medical reports, ”You started giving him testosterone when he was barely twelve. You forced a boy to puberty. Do you think these hormones don't have any side-effects?”

Father Gu turned his face to the rain-washed window, he knows what he did. His wife had warned him of the side-effects. But they wanted their son to be perfect to prevent him from being laughed and questioned by the cruel society.

Aware of Wang Shi's straight-forward personality, Hospital director Li Han butted in as he gestured him to not say anything further, ”I understand why you are angry but this won't absolve anything. Just be with your son and maybe consider telling him the truth of his birth. He has the right to know. I'm staying in the hospital until we solve everything, and will contact Zz too. That all I can say…”

Suyin heard everything as she waited at the end of the corridor and felt bad for Wang Shi. He was trying hard for this case and no one knows it better than her.

This is not fair!

A part of her blamed herself for Wang Shi's situation. She was equally responsible, yet he had to hear everyone's sharp comments.

Useless!

No! She has to solve it by tonight!

After sending the Gu couple to their son, Wang Shi turned to leave and saw Suyin standing, ”Miss. Zhao…”

Suyin jolted out from her thoughts at Wang Shi's voice and fast-walked towards him, tapping her bellies against the marble floor, making wet trails. ”Dr. Wang…. Can I've my car keys? I've to leave-”

In order to get home quickly, she lost her common sense, forgetting her drenched state and that her toes were numb because of being soaked in ice-cold bellies….

”AH---”

She lost her balance after three steps, stumbling forward. Instinctively, her clumsy hands went to grab whatever thing they could and ended up grabbing Wang Shi's scrubs, who reacted reflexively to save her from the fall and grabbed her waist.

Unfortunately, because of the wet floor, he lost his balance too and fell down..... with her on top of him. Before any of the two could understand Suyin's lips met with his.

Her eyes shot wide as she inhaled sharply and turned her face to the side, making his lips brushed with her cold cheek, and stayed there for a second before he turned his face too.
