Chapter 484: An Unexpected Call 4

“Shu Hui?” Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Ye Lengan couldn't help but furrow her brow. “You're calling at this hour because of your father's illness, right?”

If it weren't for this call today, she would have almost forgotten about this person. He had called her before, and back then, she had mentioned a one-billion-dollar consultation fee.

However, Shu Hui had been out of touch for a while. She figured it was probably because Old Master Shu disagreed or was hesitant about the hefty medical fees. She wasn't particularly concerned. After all, medical treatment was a matter of mutual consent. She wasn't a globally renowned doctor but merely an alchemist, with medical practice being a secondary pursuit. She wasn't the type to chase after patients to provide treatment.

So, Old Master Shu t s condition had been long forgotten by her. Whether he lived or died had no bearing on her.

However, she hadn't expected to receive Shu Hui's call early in the morning.

“That's right, Miss Ye. I apologize for our past interactions.” Shu Hui's tone was quite humble. “My father is in critical condition now. 1 want you to save him.”

“l have no plans to go to Jin City lately,” Ye Lengan replied dispassionately.

“And, I suspect Old Master Shu doesn't trust my medical skills, right?”

“Miss Ye, we're currently at the Central Hospital of the capital,” Shu Hui implored urgently. “My father is now in a coma. Doctors have stated that his tumor is severely compressing his nerves. If this continues, he might not make it. You're the only one who can save him.”

He wasn't familiar with Ye Leng'an's medical skills, but among all the doctors he had consulted, only Ye Lengan could provide assurance that his father would recover. No other doctor was confident enough to perform the surgery. So, he had reached out to Ye Lengan.

In fact, he had mentioned Ye Lengan to his father previously. However, as soon as his father heard about the one-billion-dollar treatment fee, he scolded her, stating she was money-driven and adamantly refused. There was nothing he could do but accede to his father's wishes.

But just a few days ago, his father suddenly collapsed. After a hospital examination, they determined that the tumor had severely compressed the nerves, yet no doctor dared to perform the surgery. That was when he remembered Ye Leng'an and immediately contacted her.

Since his father had fallen ill, the company's stock price had become quite volatile. If his father were to pass away, the entire group might be in turmoil.

After a brief consideration, Ye Leng'an finally replied, “I'll go and take a look now.”

With that, she hung up without waiting for Shu Hui to respond.

After ending the call with Shu Hui, Ye Lengan promptly requested a leave of absence. However, she didn't seek leave from her form teacher, but directly from the principal. Ever since she decided to participate in this year's college entrance exams, she was no longer under the purview of her form teacher.

Therefore, when requesting leave, she had to approach the principal directly.

After the principal heard Ye Leng'an's request, he sighed in resignation. 'Ye Lengan, don't you think you should attend school and let your teachers know you are still a student of theirs?”

His remark wasn't meant as criticism. He simply wanted to express his frustration about Ye Leng'an's frequent absences.

“Hehe, Principal, I had no other choice!” Ye Lengan said somewhat helplessly.

“l really have something important to deal with when requesting leave. Otherwise, I'd certainly be studying hard. You know, I'm the most passionate about learning.”

“Heh,” hearing Ye Lengan's self-assured response, the principal chuckled. “Do you believe that yourself?”

“Principal, whether I believe it or not doesn't matter.” Ye Lengan grinned. “As long as you believe it, isn't that enough?”

“Why do I feel like I must've done something wrong in my past life to end up with a student like you!” the principal couldn't help but continue grumbling. He wasn't genuinely irritated with Ye Lengan.

“Alright, Principal, I won't say more. I genuinely have an urgent matter to attend to.” Ye Lengan quickly added, “I'm taking two days off for now, and we can discuss the rest after those two days.”

She knew the principal was merely expressing his thoughts in a lighthearted manner. In reality, he had no objections to her taking leave.

“Okay, I got it.” Zheng Anyangs grumbling voice came through the phone. “Even though you're on leave, you must study at home. Don't forget that your goal is to be the top scorer in this year's college entrance exams!”

“Don't worry,” Ye Lengan pledged confidently. “I'll definitely become the top scorer in the college entrance exams and bring glory to the school.”

Having said that, Ye Lengan hung up the phone and took a taxi to the Central Hospital. While in the car, she couldn't help but ponder whether it might be a good idea to buy a car. But considering her age, she hadn't even obtained her driver's license yet, so even if she did buy a car, it would be futile. She could only abandon that thought.

Soon, Ye Lengan arrived at the Central Hospital. Without inquiring from anyone, she proceeded directly to the VIP single room within the hospital. People with some wits would understand how she knew.

The Shu family was financially well-off, and even while hospitalized, they would undoubtedly choose the best room.

As expected, upon arriving at the VIP single room, she encountered the agitated Shu Hui pacing back and forth by one of the ward's doors.

“Miss Ye, you've finally come,” Shu Hui eagerly welcomed her the moment he saw her. It was as if he had just seen a savior.

“Let's go in and have a look,” instead of having small talk with Shu Hui; she spoke directly.

Shu Hui pushed the door open, and the two of them entered.

Upon entering, Ye Lengan took in the situation in the ward. She didn't know the identities of the individuals there, but she assumed they were likely Shu t s family members.

This was unsurprising. Old Master Shu's condition was dire, and he could pass away at any moment. It was only natural that these people would want to be by his side during this time. Otherwise, when it came time to dispose of his fortune, they might suffer losses..
