Cheng Yi smiled and replied, “Hello.”

Jian Shuxing continued to speak, “In the next few days, my son is going to move into the ward of your institution. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your staff’s hard work.”

“Your son?” Wouldn’t that refer to Yiling’s brother then?

“Yep, he’s at the door right now.” Jian Shuxing replied.

Cheng Yi looked at the door. Jian Yunnao was standing there. His eyes gleamed with hope.

All of a sudden, Cheng Yi seemed to realize something. He smiled before saying:

“Today, Sister En and I didn’t come here for work. Young Master Yunnao’s matters will be followed up by relevant staff in our institution. We are merely here to visit our friend.”

And their friend was Jian Yiling.

Once again, Cheng Yi mentioned why they came here today. And the reason for that was Jian Yiling.

Once again, everyone’s eyes were focused on Jian Yiling.

There was not a lot of expression on Jian Yiling’s face. In fact, she looked calmer than everyone else in the room.

Her face was pale and young. From her eyes, one could tell that she was in poor health. Luo Xiuen had shoved a mint-flavored lollipop into Jian Yiling’s mouth.

“Yiling, how do you know Dr. Luo and Dr. Cheng?”

The person who asked this question was Jian Shuxing. He was rather curious and excited about the situation.

“From- Online.”

Jian Yiling answered the question truthfully. However, she was rather quiet. The reason for this was because it was rather hard for her to speak as the inflammation in her throat had not subsided.

It was true that Jian Yiling had contacted them on the Internet.

After communicating with Cheng Yi for a long period of time, the two of them had finally had their first in-person meeting.

Online?

Was it possible to get in touch with the institution’s researchers on the Internet?

None of them knew a direct way to contact the researchers. The website of the Huiling Medical Research Institution only allowed them to submit applications.

“Ahem. The situation is like this. We met Yiling when we were playing a game.”

Cheng Yi explained. He tried to help Jian Yiling hide her identity.

Cheng Yi knew a bit about Jian Yiling’s situation. He knew that she had been hiding her relationship with the institution from her family.

Cheng Yi’s answer had been quite unexpected. However, it seemed that it was quite reasonable.

Nowadays, it was normal for young people to meet new people by playing games.

However, none of them would have expected Jian Yiling to have met two talented researchers in such a way! Usually, no one had the ability to get in touch with them.

They had to admit that her luck was quite good. Often, there was a danger that the people that someone met online were scammers.

However, she hadn’t met any of those people. Rather, she met two of the most talented researchers out there.

When the Jian family heard such an answer, they had a feeling in their stomach that they could not explain. Jian Yunnao felt this feeling the most.

When Hong Baizhang heard this answer, he felt quite crushed. Usually, it would take him a lot of effort to contact the people at the institution.

However, this young girl only had to play a game. And she had met two of them!

Cheng Yi smiled before he continued to speak in a gentle voice, “By the way, Yiling is not only acquainted with the two of us. She also knows the doctor who is going to perform the operation on Young Master Yunnao.”

As soon as those words were said, everyone looked at Jian Yiling differently.

Jian Yiling actually knew the person who was going to operate on Jian Yunnao?

Back then, no one could convince the mysterious surgeon to accept the surgery. Even Mr. Qiu, who was renowned in the industry, could not manage. And it turned out that person was acquainted with Jian Yiling?!

This undoubtedly gave everyone the biggest shock.
