“No one. I was mistaken.” Dr. Dong explained with a perfunctory smile. He was soft-spoken and friendly.
Jiang Jingchen wanted to find out more, but Dr. Dong said that he needed to see the patient.
In consideration of Ruan Qi’s condition, Jiang Jingchen could only endure it.
Dr. Dong examined Ruan Qi and said slowly, “No bleeding. The pain in her abdomen has lessened, and she’s slowly recovering.”
“I’ll give her some neutral medicine to recuperate. She must be careful these next few days. Don’t get too worked up, or there’s still a risk of miscarriage.” Song Zhou noted the details carefully and thanked Dr. Dong profusely. Dr. Dong smiled and waved his hand.
“Chen asked me to help and I’m honored to meet his students. Call me if anything crops up. I’m happy to see the patient again.”
Tang Beibei thanked him and wanted to walk him out, but Jiang Jingchen told her to stay with Ruan Qi while he and Song Zhou walk Dr. Dong out.
Although Song Zhou didn’t know what was going on, he knew that his young master must have his reasons for such an arrangement. He got up and left with Jiang Jingchen.
Jiang Jingchen followed Dr. Dong out of the ward.
On the way, he asked Han Yun to investigate Dr. Dong’s background.
Dr. Dong’s father was the young master of a noble family. His family had been practicing medicine for generations. They had fled to M-Country because of the war and opened a clinic here.
The clinic had a history of more than 50 years, and it was quite a landmark here.
Looking at Dr. Dong’s information, nothing strange stood out.
However, what Dr. Dong said about Tang Beibei looking like someone really stood out.
When they arrived at the entrance of the hospital, Jiang Jingchen walked up and asked, “Dr. Dong, you saw my wife and said that she looked like someone. Who did she look like? Can you tell me, please?”
Dr. Dong explained politely, “I might have remembered wrongly. Don’t read too much into it, Mr. Jiang.”
Jiang Jingchen looked at him sharply to pressure him into talking.
But Dr. Dong kept a polite and gentle smile on his face as he turned around and got into the car.
Jiang Jingchen stood by his car window and said sincerely, “My wife was abandoned by her biological parents when she was young and had a very unhappy childhood. She really hopes to find her parents. Even if they didn’t acknowledge each other, she would be happy just looking at them from afar.” “I’ve always wanted to fulfill her wish, but I haven’t been able to find any clues. If Dr. Dong remembers anything, please contact me.”
Dr. Dong looked at the name card he held out and hesitated.
“Mr. Jiang, what does your wife’s search for her parents have to do with me?”
Jiang Jingchen said, “Mother and daughter usually look alike. Although I don’t know who Dr. Dong is talking about, it must be fate that my wife looks like that person. It would be good if they could meet.”
Dr. Dong smiled and shook his head. “Mr. Jiang, you’ve got the wrong person.”
Jiang Jingchen was insistent. He stuffed his business card into Dr. Dong’s hand and bowed respectfully.
“Please, Dr. Dong, this is my wife’s wish. Whatever small clue that Dr. Dong can give me is better than me running around like a headless chicken.”
Dr. Dong sighed helplessly as he took the business card.
“Mr. Jiang is quite a character, but there are some things that shouldn’t be delved into.”
“Dr. Dong, please tell me more.”
The more Jiang Jingchen listened, the more confused he became.
“There’s nothing more to tell. I’m just saying that Mr. Jiang is too polite.”
Dr. Dong looked at the hospital with pity in his eyes.
“If Mr. Jiang doesn’t want to cause trouble for himself, take your wife home and don’t let her show her face in public.”
Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “My wife has the freedom to do whatever she wants. How does that interfere with other people?”
Dr. Dong didn’t want to say anything more and asked the driver to drive away.
Jiang Jingchen narrowed his eyes at the departing car.
It was very likely that Dr. Dong had met someone who looked like Tang Beibei. But who was that person?
He asked him to keep his wife from showing her face in public. Could it be that her parents would harm her if they saw her?
Dr. Dong looked like someone who had seen the world. Although he did not reveal his prestigious family background, he hinted for them to be careful. Could the other party be very powerful?
“Young Master, do you think there’s something strange about this Dr. Dong?”
Jiang Jingchen waved his hand. “Dr. Dong has been a doctor for so many years. He must have met enough people and problems to be so cautious, but I still want to investigate this matter.”
He had promised Tang Beibei that he would help her find her parents.
It was a very sad thing to live a life without knowing who one’s parents were.
Even if her parents had passed, Tang Beibei would want to pay her respects as their daughter.
“Han Yun sent a message saying that Jack has been captured. He said to take you to him.”
Song Zhou’s expression darkened as he drove to Han Yun’s castle.
Han Yun usually lived in the villa in the city center when he worked. He would live in his private castle when he wasn’t working.
The castle occupied a vast area and had four security guards at the gate. After entering the compound, they had to drive a little more to arrive at the garage, parked their car before taking the elevator to the living room.
As soon as Jiang Jingchen walked in, two maids served tea to them respectfully. “Han Yun, where is he?”
Han Yun was looking at his laptop and casually pointed at the guest room. “I didn’t want his blood to dirty my carpet, so I locked him up.”
Jiang Jingchen and Song Zhou went to the guest room and knocked on the door. A man opened the door respectfully.
“Mr. Chen, you’re here. We’ve already caught him. He’s injured.”
Jiang Jingchen acknowledged the greeting and looked at Song Zhou. Song Zhou went up to Jack and pulled the blindfold off his eyes. He then squatted down and looked him in the eye.
“You seem to have known me for a long time?”
Jack spat out the blood in his mouth at Song Zhou.
Song Zhou frowned in disgust and grabbed Jack’s neck. “It looks like you’re not afraid of death!”
The veins on Jack’s neck bulged as he breathed with difficulty. He said through gritted teeth, “I have known you for a long time.”
“Since when?”
“When I saved you.”
Song Zhou frowned and let go of Jack.
“You saved me? What are you talking about?”
“It’s no surprise that you have no idea. It wasn’t Mi Qing who saved you back then.”
Jack sneered in disdain. “Back then, you were chased by many people and fainted in a small alley. I saved you. Mi Qing went to find me, but she told you that she saved you and even made you promise to marry her.”
“I just can’t stand what you did for her all these years. I wanted to kill Mi Qing and also teach you a lesson.”
“You’ve been deceived and played by her for so many years. Does that feel good?”
Jack looked at him with a ferocious expression and continued, “I’m not a good person either. I saved you then in a moment of weakness because I once had a younger brother who was about your age until he died of an accident.”
“But I didn’t expect my moment of weakness to turn into an opportunity for that b*tch Mi Qing!”
Song Zhou laughed angrily and sat down in front of Jack.
He was on a mission for his young master when those men hunted him down. He fainted during his escape. When he woke up, he saw Mi Qing. Before he could thank her, Mi Qing told him that she had saved him.
Song Zhou was a person who remembered kindness. Mi Qing had saved him, so he would repay her kindness.
When Mi Qing asked him to be her fiance, he wasn’t in love with anyone. He was happy to marry his savior. Even if he didn’t love her, he could still take care of her.
He did not expect that this was actually a scam!
“Why didn’t you expose Mi Qing and tell me the truth that you were the one who saved me?”
