The hospital president walked over holding a pen and some patient records. He nodded to Chen Ming before entering the hospital ward.
The stats on the hospital equipment were gradually climbing, indicating that Huo Yulin was a lot better now.
The hospital president found it inconceivable. How could the patient stabilize and recover so quickly?
After they were done performing surgery, he had been worried that it might take some time for the patient to recover. From the looks of it, his concerns were unnecessary.
The hospital president took down the patient’s physical stats before he turned to say to Chen Ming. “Don’t worry. He is doing exceptionally well. I expect him to regain consciousness soon.”
Chen Ming felt relieved on hearing this. He nodded and said, “Thank you so much.”
The hospital president waved his hand and remarked. “We have to thank your friend for this. If she wasn’t around, we might not have succeeded.”
Chen Ming felt scared just thinking about this. Huo Yulin could have died last night. If he did not tell Huo Yao about the mission, Huo Yulin might be lying in the morgue now.
Fortunately, Huo Yao was a great doctor. Otherwise, the consequences were unimaginable. Thoughts kept flooding Chen Ming’s mind until he recalled the conversation he had with her. He told the hospital president, “You have to keep the incident a secret.”
The hospital president nodded. The Huo family was the hospital’s biggest investor, so he had to do as they asked. He replied. “Don’t worry. I won’t breathe a word about the incident.”
“Thanks.” Chen Ming paused before he continued. “Don’t tell anyone about my friend either. That includes Young Master Yulin.”
The hospital president was intrigued by Huo Yao’s medical skills and wanted to find out more about her. The moment he heard what Chen Ming said, he struck the thought from his mind completely. It was not his place to ask questions. He simply responded. “Got it.”
“Uh huh. Great.”
……
After the hospital president examined Huo Yulin, he went over to the hospital records department.
The records department had footage of every major surgery done in the hospital. Even though he could not ask questions about the young woman, he still wanted to study her work.
She had managed to save a dying man simply by applying some acupuncture needles. It was undoubtedly worthy of study.
When he got there, he sent everyone away except the head of the records department. The hospital director had told the records department head to make a copy of last night’s surgery and send it to his mailbox.
“Last night’s surgery? There are no records. Are you mistaken about the date?”
The record department head could not find any footage from last night after checking through the system.
“I suppose it was technically today since the surgery took place after midnight.” The hospital director corrected himself.
The records department head. “Nothing for that either. Did we have a major surgery last night?”
He was at work, but he did not know anything about it.
Since the surgery was conducted in absolute secrecy last night, the hospital director did not inform many people. He walked up in front of the computer and felt puzzled. “Can you check again? How could it be missing?”
“There’s really nothing from last night.” The records department head kept checking the archives, but there was nothing.
The hospital director had an inkling of why the footage was missing. He stopped asking about it and left the records department disappointedly.
The records department head watched from behind quizzically when the hospital director walked off.

Meanwhile, Wang Jing called Huo Yao after she ended her conversation with Chen Ming.
Wang Jing had found out about Huo Yao’s sick leave, so she called to check upon Huo Yao.
