Luo Xiuen turned around and said, “Don’t worry Yiling. In the future, I’ll leave a small bench in my car. I’ll make sure that you don’t need to struggle when you get in my car! If there’s no small bench available, Cheng Yi can lie on the ground and act as a bench for you!”

Jian Yiling was a little embarrassed. Her height was indeed a problem...

She had been recently eating well and focusing on doing stretches. She hoped that she could grow a bit taller...

As Luo Xiuen drove up to the entrance of the institution, she noticed that there was a man standing in the middle of the road. He was blocking her way.

However, Luo Xiuen was used to this kind of situation.

There were always individuals that refused to listen to the advice that they were given. They would come to the entrance of the institution and block them from entering. They felt as though submitting the medical information of their loved ones into the institution’s website wasn’t sufficient.

When it came to these actions, the institution could understand why they did such a thing. People were bound to get emotional when it came down to the lives of people they cared about.

As a result, they didn’t want to treat them too harshly.

However, from a logical standpoint, their behavior achieved nothing. Their actions were not effective and only served to act as unnecessary trouble for the researchers and the institution.

Luo Xiuen parked her car and rolled down the window. She shouted at the man who was standing in her way, “Don’t block the road! Let me pass. You can talk to the security guard in a bit!”

The young man turned around. It was Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan recognized Jian Yiling immediately. She was currently seated in the front passenger seat.

The car in front of him was undoubtedly a vehicle from the institution.

Qin Chuan was quite confused. Why was Jian Yiling here?

Qin Chuan walked over to the car and asked Jian Yiling, “Jian Yiling, what are you doing here?”

This caused Luo Xiuen to turn her head and ask Jian Yiling, “Do you know this person? If you don’t know him, I’ll send him flying.”

If he started a conversation without knowing Yiling, he would be treated as a hooligan.

“He’s my tutor,” Jian Yiling replied.

“Huh?” Luo Xiuen asked. She was rather confused. She pointed at Qin Chuan before she continued, “He’s your tutor? What is he tutoring you in? Sports?”

Luo Xiuen felt that Jian Yiling might have needed some tuition in sports.

However, for any other subjects, she would be tutoring the other person.

Qin Chuan looked at Luo Xiuen. He noticed that she was wearing a lab coat that had the logo of Huiling Medical Research Institution. From this, he could deduce that she was someone from the institution.

Luo Xiuen only went out today to pick up Jian Yiling. Because of this, she didn’t change into her usual clothes.

Qin Chuan didn’t have time to question why Jian Yiling was in the vehicle. As of now, he wanted to seize the opportunity to talk to Luo Xiuen:

“Could you give me some time? It’s about my mother. Please reconsider your decision regarding her case.”

When it came to matters regarding his mother, Qin Chuan was completely devoid of his usual icy arrogance.

Usually, Luo Xiuen wouldn’t have been bothered to speak to Qin Chuan. However, as she saw that the other party knew Jian Yiling, Luo Xiuen replied in a much kinder fashion. She reiterated the information that the institution provided to everyone who applied.

“Brother. Please understand that this is a medical research institution and not a hospital emergency room! If we have to take care of everyone who gets ill, we would be so damn busy! We wouldn’t even have time to do any medical research. I understand that you’re calling us heartless because we didn’t save your loved ones. However, once we develop a new drug, we can save countless people at once!”

There were bound to be some trade-offs in life. If their medical research institution focused on ordinary medical cases, the value that they would provide to society would exponentially decrease.

Qin Chuan went silent.

He understood the logic behind Luo Xiuen’s words.

However, logic and emotions were two separate things.
