Kicked out, but everyone loves me more

When they arrived at Bo Yuting's office, by chance, Director Fang was also there.

Apparently not expecting Lin Wu to come with Bo Yuting, Director Fang greeted her with some surprise.

Lin Wu nodded faintly in response.

Bo Yuting asked Lin Wu to sit down on the couch first, then turned to Director Fang and asked, "What's up?"

Director Fang quickly pulled out a list and handed it to Bo Yuting, "Doctor Bo, here's the list of the new pharmaceuticals you wanted the hospital to procure. I brought it for your final confirmation. If there's no problem, I'll arrange for the purchase."

Bo Yuting skimmed through the list and handed it back, "No problem, procure it as soon as possible. If you encounter any restrictions, come to me."

On this topic, Director Fang couldn't help but smile, glanced at Lin Wu, and said, "Don't worry, Doctor Bo, our hospital has the most procurement channels. Many foreign medical devices, even those that may not be accessible in Beijing, are available in our hospital. All thanks to Miss Lin. So rest assured, we'll be able to procure this batch of new drugs promptly."

Bo Yuting looked at Lin Wu with a hint of surprise and said to Director Fang, "Thank you for the trouble. I need to discuss Mr. Lin's condition with Miss Lin, so I won't keep you any longer."

"Alright, alright, you two go ahead and discuss, I'll be leaving."

Knowing the extent of Lin Wu's concern for her grandfather, Director Fang wasn't so surprised to see the two meeting so early in the morning.

In fact, Director Fang hoped more than anyone that Lin Wu and Bo Yuting would get along well.

After all, one was the hospital's main financier, and the other was the expert she had finally managed to invite from Beijing; she didn't want to offend either of them and wished to retain both. If the two of them got along well, the hospital would continue to thrive and improve.

With these thoughts, Director Fang left in high spirits.

When Bo Yuting looked at Lin Wu again, there was a bit more inquiry in his gaze. He picked up the two thermos containers on his desk and sat down opposite Lin Wu.

While opening the thermos, he casually remarked, "According to Director Fang, you're quite impressive."

Lin Wu's expression remained very faint, "Not as much as Bo Ninth Master."

Bo Yuting tugged at the corner of his mouth, not surprised that the other party knew of his identity.

He pushed the thermos towards Lin Wu and handed her a spoon, "Won Ton with lotus root and pork filling. I don't know if you have any dietary restrictions?"

As soon as the lid was opened, Lin Wu caught the enticing aroma and found herself surprisingly hungrier.

She accepted the spoon and politely said, "Thank you, I don't have any dietary restrictions."

Not only did she not have any, it was quite the coincidence that Won Ton with lotus root and pork filling was actually her favorite.

Lin Wu ate quietly, moving quickly and with small gestures, and with a focused expression.

Bo Yuting also ate his portion quietly, only occasionally glancing at Lin Wu, uncertain whether he was checking to see if she found the taste to his liking, or if he was thinking about something else.

On the thirteenth time she noticed Bo Yuting looking at her, Lin Wu spoke with a neutral expression, "The Won Ton is delicious, and your cooking skills are decent too. No need to keep watching and asking me about it."

Bo Yuting had finished eating faster than Lin Wu, and he now leaned back on the couch armrest, resting his chin on his hand as he looked at her.

He chuckled lightly, "It's not that. I was just wondering if I would have the honor of inviting Miss Lin to join me for lunch?"

"No."

Lin Wu refused.

Bo Yuting chuckled softly and shook his head without saying anything more.

After Lin Wu finished eating as well, Bo Yuting got up to grab the medical charts he had brought that morning and returned, saying, "I've basically understood your grandfather's condition and have a preliminary treatment plan."

Lin Wu immediately sat up straight, "Go ahead."

Bo Yuting said, "No rush. About your grandfather's medical report, there's one thing I'm not very clear about and need to ask you."

Lin Wu: "What is it?"

Bo Yuting flipped to the last few pages of the medical records, pointed to a certain part, and showed it to Lin Wu, "Last week's examination report mentions trace amounts of a radioactive element in your grandfather's body. Were there any in previous reports?"

Lin Wu stared at it, momentarily taken aback.

She carefully recalled the previous reports she had read, her brow furrowing, "No, there weren't."

"Are you certain?"

"Yes."

"It appears then that the condition might have developed recently. Of course, it's not ruled out that your grandfather might have been to some experimental site. Given the sudden worsening of his condition, I need to understand the situation clearly," Bo Yuting said.

Lin Wu also found it strange how her grandfather's condition could have suddenly deteriorated. She stood up and said, "Alright, I'll go and ask my grandfather right now."

Bo Yuting stood up as well, "Then take care, I won't see you out. Once you have the results, I'll come back in the afternoon to examine the old master."

Having said that, he put down the medical records and bent down to pack up the thermos.

Seeing this, Lin Wu felt a bit embarrassed to just eat and run.

She reached out her hand, "Let me wash it and return it to you."

"There's no need," Bo Yuting glanced at Lin Wu's hand, which was slim and fair, extremely beautiful. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Hands like yours are suited for other things, not for washing."

Lin Wu fell silent for a moment, then took her leave. She decided to include the cost of the meal in the consultation fee to pay Bo Yuting.

When she returned to the old master Lin's hospital room, she happened to run into Lin Jiangchuan and Lin Qian who were about to leave.

Upon seeing each other, Lin Jiangchuan immediately turned his face away, "Why is it you? You aren't a part of the Lin Family anymore, so what are you doing here? Wasn't it enough how you bullied my mother last time?!"

Originally, Lin Jiangchuan hadn't planned to come to see the old master; he had too many things to keep him busy, how could he afford to waste time on a dying old man.

However, the old master Lin had accidentally learned of the incident involving Shenggui and confronted them. When everyone else was unavailable, Fang Ruling went to the hospital to explain things to the old master Lin. Unexpectedly, she ended up being scolded by him, and even worse, it was in front of Lin Wu, an outsider!

As soon as Fang Ruling got back and told the rest of the family, they were unhappy.

How could old master Lin take the side of an outsider over his own family, making them look bad?

Could it be he was becoming senile!

But Lin Qian was empathetic. She felt that old master Lin simply didn't understand her and that's why he didn't give face to Fang Ruling by siding with Lin Wu. So she decided to come to the hospital to visit old master Lin.

The Lin Family, of course, all supported this, but they couldn't let Lin Qian go by herself, lest she too would be mistreated by old master Lin.

Since everyone else was pressed for time, in the end, it was Lin Jiangchuan who accompanied her.

Lin Jiangchuan truly cherished this sister. Seeing that old master Lin indeed didn't seem to like Lin Qian, he complained inwardly about old master Lin while doing everything he could to endear Lin Qian to him.

He was almost at his wit's end, and old master Lin finally showed a pleasant disposition, but still, most of what he said was about Lin Wu.

This made Lin Jiangchuan loathe Lin Wu even more. The moment he saw Lin Wu, he couldn't offer a kind face.

"If you know what's good for you, get lost. Don't keep showing up in front of my grandpa. Don't you have your own grandfather?" Lin Jiangchuan said before sneering as if something just occurred to him, "Oh, I forgot, you don't even know your own biological parents, so naturally, you wouldn't have your own grandfather either."
