Chapter 811: The Situation Is Not Optimistic



Just past one in the afternoon, after having lunch, Lin Jie, who had been studying Yao Henan's medical records, felt a bit drowsy.

He was about to lie down on the sofa in the office for a short rest.

Before Lin Jie could lie down, the office door was pushed open.

Seeing that the visitor was Zhang Xiaoxiao, Lin Jie asked, "How's Yao Henan?"

"She's asleep. After being examined all morning, she must be tired, plus she probably didn't sleep well last night."

"Now she's sleeping like a little pig. Kemeng is in the ward watching over her,"

Lin Jie let out an "oh" and made room on the sofa, saying, "Xiaoxiao, you've been taking care of her since last night; you must be tired, too. Why don't you lie down for a bit?"

Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head, saying, "I didn't do much. Mostly just kept Nannan company and helped her with some inconveniences. The rest of the time, I ate when I should, slept when I should, so I'm not tired."

"Did she talk to you?" Lin Jie asked, somewhat surprised.

Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head again, saying, "No, I was the only one talking."

"But I noticed she was listening to me. Ajie, I'm confident that after some more familiarity, she'll start talking to me."

Zhang Xiaoxiao then asked with concern, "Ajie, is there any progress with the guardianship issue?"

"There are some complications."

Lin Jie explained further, "According to Lawyer Li's investigation, she has an idle uncle and an elderly grandmother. In addition, on her father's side, there is a cousin and a cousin."

"Actually, it's no big deal because her father is still around and hasn't been stripped of guardianship."

"The main disadvantage is that, according to national laws, Miaomiao and I are not eligible to adopt."

Zhang Xiaoxiao asked anxiously, "Ajie, do you have any workaround? Should we try to pull some strings?"

Lin Jie laughed, "Xiaoxiao, there's no need to worry."

"It doesn't matter even if we don't have this guardianship."

"Now Yao Henan has broken out of her psychological shell, has the ability to discern, and is no longer unable to take care of herself or lacking self-protective awareness."

"And in a little over two years, she'll turn eighteen, become an adult, and have the right to choose and decide."

"We can have a friendly discussion with Yao Henan's current relatives and see if she wants to live with us, of course, only if she agrees."

"What if her relatives stubbornly refuse?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked worriedly.

A flash of cold light appeared in Lin Jie's eyes, and with a calm yet confident tone, he said, "They will agree."

As soon as he finished this indisputable statement, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "A little over a year ago, Miaomiao and I were intimidated by the Han Family's influence, and we had no choice but to sign an agreement to mortgage the house to them."

"Now, I'm thinking of using influence to subdue others."

Zhang Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Your intentions and the Han Family's are not the same; you're doing something good."

"Ajie, have you seen the latest news? The joint investigation team that went to Bowei International School has released the first investigation notice."

Lin Jie asked, "What does the notice say?"

"The investigation team said that after preliminary investigations, the specific bullying content mentioned in the relevant video is mostly true."

"The notice also mentioned that the investigation team has received reports from several students saying they were also severely bullied."

"The notice pointed out that given the serious management issues at Bowei International School, the school will be closed for a week."

"After a week, the investigation team will make a decision based on the specific investigation results."

Zhang Xiaoxiao said with righteous indignation, "Online discussions are full of outrage, with everyone demanding severe punishment for the negligent homeroom teacher and the school's management."

"Many people are also calling for the school's license to be revoked or for it to be converted into a public school."

Lin Jie wasn't too concerned about the fate of the school, and asked, "Xiaoxiao, what kind of person is the owner of this school, the father of the culprit?"

"His information has been fully exposed online, and it's quite detailed. He's a successful billionaire entrepreneur and a member of the city's political consultative conference."

"Oh, Ajie, there's some insider information circulating in social circles now..."

Zhang Xiaoxiao said somewhat mysteriously, "The principal of Bowei International School, a beautiful and wise female Ph.D., is said to be the mistress of this chairman."

"Bowei International School used to have a good reputation and management, but since the chairman's daughter enrolled, the management has gradually become lax."

"This insider information suggests that the female Ph.D. is doing it on purpose to spoil the chairman's daughter."

"The best way to ruin a child isn't harsh criticism, but rather unprincipled indulgence, agreeing to every request. This method not only has strong concealment, but it's also easily perceived by outsiders as being good to the child."

"But that female Ph.D. didn't expect such a serious incident to occur, dragging herself down as well."

Lin Jie couldn't help but laugh, "When things happen, all kinds of conspiracy theories emerge. Let's wait for the formal results of the police investigation…"

Chatting with Zhang Xiaoxiao for a while dispelled Lin Jie's drowsiness.

After Zhang Xiaoxiao left, he pulled up Yao Henan's latest examination data from the computer when he received a call from An Kexin.

"Ajie, Dad went to the Fu Family this morning."

"He communicated with Old Master Fu, speculating that the Luo Family might use the Kangning Hospital land to build a skyscraper, and he found out something you might be interested in."

Lin Jie responded, "Oh, then tell me, what's going on?"

"Someone has already gone to the Fu Family to speak for the Hu Family, trying to persuade Old Master Fu, and further persuade you to treat Hu Yuanqing's injured left arm."

"Unexpectedly, Old Master Fu was angry. The Hu Family and the Luo Family had privately reached an agreement and did not accept this request."

Lin Jie asked in confusion, "Kexin, have you figured out why the Fu Family failed this time? The Fu Family should have been prepared to take over Kangning Hospital long ago."

"This is the second thing I want to tell you."

"Old Master Fu entrusted Fu Xiuyuan's father with handling the takeover of Kangning Hospital."

"However, this person, who wasn't much valued in the family, suddenly having a major responsibility, either got too excited or was too thrilled and overstepped, actually didn't keep the secret and told a confidante at a club about it."

An Kexin sighed, "It's said that this confidante sold the information to the Luo Family."

"This allowed the Luo Family to prepare in advance and successfully intercepted the Hu Family."

Lin Jie couldn't help but say, "From this, it seems there's a reason why Fu Xiuyuan's father hasn't been valued by the family for so many years – he really lacks personal ability and character."

From the phone, An Kexin's voice came through clearly, "Yes, now Fu Xiuyuan's father has completely lost his position in the family, and even Fu Xiuyuan is somewhat affected."

"Ah Jie, you should also be alert about this matter. Why did that woman sell the information to the Luo Family?"

She speculated, "Perhaps Luo Wantong had been watching the Fu Family all along, targeting each person's weaknesses and setting appropriate arrangements."

"This also shows that Luo Wantong should have arrangements against our An Family and you as well."

Lin Jie responded with an 'oh' and said, "I'll be careful, not giving anyone a chance to exploit."

An Kexin replied with a hum, continuing, "Old Master Fu said he will definitely not let Luo Wantong succeed in his schemes. After one failure, Old Master Fu certainly wants to save face."

Upon saying this, An Kexin laughed on the phone and said, "Also, here's another thing for you: the incident of Luo Pengyi trying to escape at the wedding really happened."

"It's said that Chairman Cai of Zhengda Pharmaceutical was furious, immediately declaring the cancellation of the wedding and wanting to take his daughter Cai Yanhe away, but was eventually persuaded by his daughter to stay."

Lin Jie laughed, "So, does this mean Cai Yanhe actually likes Luo Pengyi?"

"Truly likes? I think not necessarily!"

An Kexin scoffed, "It's obviously a marriage of interests arranged by the two families' elders."

"In my opinion, Cai Yanhe is an ambitious person, not easy to deal with. What she values should be the substantial strength of the Luo Family."

She asked again, "Ah Jie, how is Nannan's health checkup; is it optimistic?"

"Based on the current partial results, it's not optimistic."

Lin Jie explained, "The previous bone injury repair surgery was rather crude."

"The prolonged healing has caused bone overgrowth, which has almost incapacitated her hip joint."

"And the leg bone..."

Reaching this point, Lin Jie stated bluntly, "Even if the healing is good, to further improve Yao Henan's bone injuries, I would need to break and realign all her injured bones."

"I'm not quite sure about the success of this."

"Moreover, Yao Henan's legs have various degrees of nerve damage, requiring nerve repair surgery."

"Along with the inactivity for the past few months, Yao Henan's lower limb muscles have begun to atrophy."

Lin Jie sighed and said, "I hope Yao Jishun will have more time to witness Yao Henan stand on her own."

An Kexin also wished hopefully, "Ah Jie, I'm sure you can do it."

"Currently, the case is receiving a lot of public attention online, possibly extending the timeline somewhat..."

In the evening, Lin Jie arrived at the orthopedic ICU.

He saw Yao Henan quietly leaning against the lifted bed, her eyes staring blankly at the wall in front.

Zhang Xiaoxiao and An Kemeng sat on either side of the bed, speaking softly, sentence by sentence.

On the bedside cabinet, there were porridge, small buns, bone marrow winter melon soup, Cordyceps chicken, and a few other dishes.

He asked, "Xiaoxiao, did you have dinner? How much did you eat?"

"Nannan did eat, just not much."

Lin Jie frowned and sternly said, "Yao Henan, your body is very weak."

"Your bone recovery surgery is a major operation, taking at least fifteen to sixteen hours, greatly exhausting the body."

"And your current body can't withstand such a major surgery."

"If you want to slowly nourish your body, it's up to you. I'm just reminding you: time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yao Henan reached over to the bedside cabinet, grabbed the bone soup, and started drinking it heartily...
