Chapter 92 - 92 Qiao Yue’s Backer
92 Qiao Yue’s Backer
The door to the ward opened and Lu Ying was the first to walk out. He scanned the corridor but did not see the person who called him a quack.
He needed to keep calm before treating a patient, so he didn’t argue with this man. But now that the old master was awake, how could he let him off?
“Dr. Lu, how is Grandpa now? ” Qiao Xuan asked as he met Lu Ying at the door.
Seeing the anxiety in Qiao Xuan’s eyes, Lu Ying didn’t keep him in suspense. “He’s already...”
Before Lu Ying could finish, the sound of someone running came from the corridor. As the old master was staying in a Class A ward, with less than ten high-status patients across the entire floor, who would be so impolite to run in the corridor?
“Second brother, how can you believe the words of a so-called miracle-working doctor! They’re all liars!”
Qiao Xin ran up to Qiao Jing and said anxiously. Qiao Ying followed behind her, along with Qiao Yu and Qiao Ze. This was great, the entire third generation of the Qiao family was here.
Qiao Jing frowned silently at Qiao Xin before he fixed his eyes on Lu Ying.
Qiao Xuan was also a little annoyed that Qiao Xin interrupted Lu Ying, but he didn’t show it as obviously as Qiao Jing.
When Third Madam Qiao saw her daughters, she calmed down a little and walked up to Lu Ying. “Sir, I don’t know where you came from. Everything’s fine if Father is cured but if his conditions worsened because of your treatment, please be prepared to receive a legal notice.”
Lu Ying’s eyes were filled with ridicule as he said, “You threaten me before the treatment and then after the treatment. It looks like you really don’t want the old master to wake up at all. Why else would you keep riling up the doctor?”
Third Madam Qiao’s body stiffened at Lu Ying’s words. Qiao Xuan also stared at her after hearing Lu Ying’s words.
That’s right! It was a taboo for doctors to be riled up before treating a patient, especially before an acupuncture session, which required extreme concentration. Wouldn’t his grandfather be in great danger if Dr. Lu was affected by them?
Qiao Xuan and Qiao Jing looked at each other. They didn’t speak, but they understood what the other meant.
Third Madam Qiao shivered from the stares and tried her best not to shudder as she held Qiao Xin’s hand.
“I only have Father’s best interests at heart, don’t slander me! And that Qiao Yue, you must be in cahoots with him! Why else would he appear so suddenly?” Third Madam Qiao scolded sternly.
Lu Ying kept his expression but the mockery in his eyes grew.
“Sorry to disappoint you, but the old man is awake now. You can go and see him!” With that, Lu Ying gave way to Qiao Xuan and Qiao Jing.
As soon as Qiao Jing entered the room, he saw Old Master Qiao holding Qiao Yue’s hand and telling him how he fell into coma. It was because Qiao Jing had discovered Qiao Yue’s whereabouts and news that Qiao Qing had died long ago. Old Master Qiao collapsed under the shock of great joy and great sorrow and was rushed to the hospital immediately. For some reason, he fell into a coma and was unconscious for a month before he woke up today.
“Xiao Yue, now that Grandpa is awake. I will be your backer from now on. Just tell me if anyone bullies you, and I’ll teach them a lesson for you.” Old Master Qiao glared at Third Madam Qiao as he spoke.
Qiao Yue didn’t expect the old master to say this and didn’t know how to react.
She had very few relatives since young. She lived with her mother and they didn’t stay in one place for long. As soon as she got to know her friends and neighbors, her mother would move again. Her mother’s health deteriorated because of that.
After her mother passed away, she was sent to an orphanage. Although there were many children there, not many became friends. Sometimes, they would fight over an opportunity to be adopted.
After living in the orphanage for half a year, godfather found her. At first, she didn’t know that he was looking for her on purpose. She heard it by accident when she returned early from a mission.
She had been wandering around for more than half of her eighteen years of life. She only settled down after meeting godfather, but he had never been so close with her. She was at a loss now when faced with love from an elder like Old Master Qiao.
“Old master, I...”
As soon as Qiao Yue opened her mouth, she was glared at by the old master.
“What did you just call me?” Old Master Qiao said to Qiao Yue with a threatening tone.
