86 The Cloak Of Denial (2/2)

Elder Qin wanted to ask Li Xiuying why she wanted to keep such an incompetent PA any longer. However he knew that Li Xiuying must have a reason behind her decisions.

Elder Qin: ”Okay Xiuying I'll find a new PA for you but instead of having him on standby how about I get them to work behind the scenes and pick up Jiang Huan's slack?”

Li Xiuying: ”Evidence.”

Elder Qin: ”I'll make sure they keep records of Jiang Huan's mistakes.”

Li Xiuying: ”Thank you. Goodbye”

Elder Qin: ”Ah Xiuying before you go, I just wanted to ask if everything went regarding the surgery?”

Li Xiuying: ”Yes.”

Elder Qin: ”Good. That's good. How was Huang Teng? He can be difficult to deal with.”

Li Xiuying: ”Fine.”

Elder Qin: ”Good, that's good. How about...”

Li Xiuying: ”Elder Qin is there something you want to ask me?”

Elder Qin: ”Xiuying. I just wanted to check that you were fine. I heard that your cousins came to see you at the hospital today.” Elder Qin had many eyes and ears within the hospital. He had been informed about Li Xiuying meeting with her trouble making cousins, the Director of Northwest University's medical programme and Huang Teng.

Li Xiuying could hear the genuine concern in Elder Qin's voice. Li Xiuying thought that Elder Qin was worried that she may have dented the relationship between Unity hospital and the two elders.

Li Xiuying: ”Li Yu Yan has been admitted into medical school.”

Elder Qin was again filled with questions that he wanted to ask Li Xiuying.

Elder Qin: ”Oh well I'm sure she is incredibly happy being admitted into the best medical school in the country.”

Li Xiuying laughed. Oh Li Yu Yan was probably a lot of things but happy wasn't one of them.

Li Xiuying: ”Sure.”

Elder Qin didn't think that Li Xiuying would be so happy for her cousin. He had thought that Li Xiuying hated Li Yu Yan. ”Why would Xiuying help Li Yu Yan?'

Li Xiuying could hear Elder Qin shuffling around and the rustling of paper.

Elder Qin: ”Sorry about that there's an annoying pest. Okay Xiuying I won't keep you any longer. Enjoy your weekend.”

Li Xiuying: ”Goodbye.”

Elder Qin's office - Qin Enterprises

Elder Qin looked at his eldest son also known as annoying pest.

Elder Qin was annoyed: ” Song, what's wrong you? Couldn't you see I was trying to talk to Xiuying?” His eldest son kept writing messages on paper and waving it at him.

On the piece of paper Qin song had written 'loud speaker?' When Elder Qin didn't comply he had written 'What's happening now?' Followed by the next message 'what meeting?'

Qin Song ignored his father's annoyance and remained indifferent: ”What's going on with Dr. Li? Why did she ask for Jiang Huan to be replaced? What were her cousins doing there? What meeting? What did Elder Huang want?”

Elder Qin looked incredulously at his son.

Elder Qin's voice contained suspicion: ”Why are you so concerned about Xiuying and her affairs?” When elder Qin thought back to the interactions between Qin Song and Li Xiuying he realized that his son had been behaving out of character.

Qin Song: ”Father. Dr. Li is important for the growth of Unity hospital. She has only signed a contract with us for 3 months. We have to ensure she is happy with us so she will extend her contract. It has only been 8 days and she has already met with unfortunate misunderstandings at our hospital.”

Elder Qin nodded. What Qin Song said made sense. They had to ensure that Li Xiuying was happy even if she didn't choose to extend her contract. Li Xiuying could break her contract with them at any time; God knows that she has enough money to pay the termination fee.
