Chapter 168: What the Hell is This?

Although this hospital room was not arranged by his mother, but rather secured earlier by Zhao Long's men, as mentioned before, that was beside the point.

In Wang Xiang's view, since Shen Yina had no idea who had arranged this VIP room, he might as well take the credit to boost her favorable impression of him and showcase his own influence.

He had expected this to make Shen Yina view him more favorably, but to his surprise, after he finished speaking, Shen Yina didn't even spare him a single glance!

Wang Xiang was stunned for a moment. Following the direction of Shen Yina's gaze, he saw that she was smiling at Qin Xuan, which instantly filled him with burning rage. How was this possible? Could it be that this Qin Xuan had already completely won Shen Yina over?

Qin Xuan had no intention of conquering Shen Yina, but at this moment, Shen Yina had eyes for no one else; her mind was entirely filled with him.

Seeing Shen Yina completely ignore her son, Wang Hongying frowned. She recognized Qin Xuan as well, but in her eyes, he was merely someone backed by the Zhao family. As an illegitimate daughter of the prominent Wang family of Yanjing, she had zero fear of the Zhao family.

Therefore, she remained silent, believing her son was fully capable of handling the situation. Instead, Shen Donglai, who was watching from the side, caught her attention. Was this Shen Donglai, the president of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China's Jinling Branch?

She felt that if her son could successfully win Shen Yina's heart, endless wealth would surely follow. Although her family had already made a fortune relying on the First Hospital, she felt it was still not enough.

"Shen Yina, do you feel a bit weak, your internal organs somewhat uncomfortable, and your qi and meridians obstructed?"

Without paying attention to the others, Qin Xuan asked, looking straight at Shen Yina.

"Mm. Qin Xuan, you're amazing. You guessed right away that I was uncomfortable."

Shen Yina said with admiration.

"Hehe, this wasn't a guess. The injuries you suffered last night are no ordinary wounds. Although the hospital treated your cuts, there are deeper internal injuries that they couldn't handle. You can't recover from them on your own."

Qin Xuan smiled.

At this point, Wang Xiang's expression turned rather ugly. He could not fathom how Qin Xuan and Shen Yina had become so close; judging by the way they were exchanging glances, they practically looked like a couple! Besides, how on earth did Qin Xuan know that Shen Yina was feeling unwell?

Because of this, Wang Hongying grew angry as well.

Qin Xuan's remark that the hospital could not treat Shen Yina's internal injuries was practically a slap to her face in broad daylight. Knowing her status as a prominent figure at the First Hospital, she was extremely furious to hear someone bad-mouthing the institution.

Of course, what mattered more was that he appeared to be her son's love rival.

"Is your name Qin Xuan? When it comes to a patient's condition, we doctors know far better than you do," Wang Hongying's sharp and sarcastic voice rang out. "Yina's injuries are completely fine. She'll recover fully after resting for a couple of days. What kind of nonsense internal injuries are you talking about? Internal organs, qi and meridians—it's utterly laughable."

"What the hell do you know? Shut the hell up."

Without even turning his head, Qin Xuan replied coldly, then reached into his pocket, intending to retrieve the Tianshan Great Restorative Pill.

These words made Wang Hongying so angry she was practically ready to explode. Ever since she became the director of the emergency department at the First Hospital, no one had ever spoken to her like this. She was a dignified director of the First Hospital, so who did this Qin Xuan think he was?

To dare tell her she didn't know a damn thing?

Absurd to the extreme!

Seeing Qin Xuan speak to his mother in such a manner, Wang Xiang instantly felt outraged as well. However, lacking the courage to take physical action himself, he could only curse, "Qin Xuan, I never expected that a dignified student of Jinling University would be so disrespectful to an elder in the medical field and use such foul language!"

"Cut the crap. Is someone like her an elder in the medical field?"

Qin Xuan gave a cold laugh. If not for the backing of the Yanjing Wang family protecting their household, this entire family would have been crushed not long ago. Her position as the director and chief physician of the First Hospital would certainly have been forfeit, and whether she could even remain in the hospital at all would be a question.

As the director of the First Hospital, Wang Hongying was utterly devoid of medical ethics. If he hadn't made that phone call to Zhao Long last night, Shen Yina's condition would likely have been delayed for a long time. The hospital's reputation was precisely being ruined by people like her.

An elder in the medical field? Qin Xuan scoffed at the notion.

"You—"

Wang Hongying and Wang Xiang were both instantly infuriated, but right at that moment, Qin Xuan pulled the Tianshan Great Restorative Pill from his pocket. Immediately, a wave of alluring medicinal fragrance drifted out, quickly filling the entire hospital room.

Everyone in the room looked perplexed. What on earth smelled so fragrant? There was even a faint hint of herbal medicine.

They saw Qin Xuan holding a thumb-sized, pitch-black pill—the Tianshan Great Restorative Pill—and saying solemnly to Shen Yina, who was lying in bed, "This thing is called the Tianshan Great Restorative Pill. Last night, you were injured by a certain sword qi, leaving your internal organs and meridians blocked. If this isn't resolved, it will definitely leave chronic health issues. Now, you just need to eat this, and you'll recover very quickly."

"Really? Qin Xuan, I believe you..."

Shen Yina was startled at first, but she quickly nodded. When she woke up injured this morning, she indeed felt her qi obstructed, her chest tightly oppressed, and occasional pains throughout her body, making her feel that something was seriously wrong.

When she asked the doctors, they all told her it was nothing. Hearing Qin Xuan's words now, although it sounded rather mystical, she readily chose to believe him. As for Qin Xuan, Shen Yina's current state of mind could almost be described as blind worship.

"Wait, what is this junk?"

Wang Xiang stared at the pitch-black pill in Qin Xuan's hand and hurriedly stepped forward to demand an explanation in a harsh tone.

"Are you deaf? Qin Xuan said this is the Tianshan Great Restorative Pill."

Shen Yina finally noticed Wang Xiang and frowned, glaring at him irritably. She felt she didn't even know this Wang Xiang fellow—what was he doing in her hospital room?

"Haha, the Tianshan Great Restorative Pill?"

Wang Xiang couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What kind of nonsense Tianshan Great Restorative Pill is that? This is a hospital; we won't allow some suspicious character to run amok here," Wang Hongying said bitterly. "Qin Xuan, get out of this hospital right now, or security will be here immediately."

Wang Hongying had finally found a pretext to chase Qin Xuan away.

This was the respectable Jinling City First Hospital; how could they tolerate some wandering charlatan causing trouble here? In her eyes, the Qin Xuan before her was a con artist through and through.

First it was internal organs and meridians, and now he pulls out some pitch-black object and calls it a great restorative pill—it was the height of absurdity.

Qin Xuan frowned. Seeing this, Shen Yina grew worried and quickly said, "Qin Xuan, they don't believe you, but I do."

She then glared at Wang Xiang and Wang Hongying, adding, "Whether I eat it or not is my own business. You have no right to interfere."

Wang Xiang and Wang Hongying were left momentarily speechless. However, at this point, Shen Donglai caught sight of the pitch-black pill in Qin Xuan's hand and also felt something was amiss.

Though he didn't care much for his daughter, such a bizarre object obviously shouldn't be ingested. He quickly chimed in, "Shen Yina, don't be ridiculous. Qin Xuan, I took you for a promising young talent, so why are you messing around with such inexplicable nonsense?"
