The four of them followed Doctor Li into the office, where Doctor Li promptly placed a stack of papers on the table. “Hey! This is the cost for the next few days. ”
Chen Lian spoke up, “The person who sent Li Jin here promised to pay the bill once every three days. It’s been six days, and no one has come.”
Doctor Li knocked on the paper with his finger and said, “Since you want to see
Li Jin and claim to be her son and daughter-in-law, let’s see who will cover this
Xia He and Chen Lian were stunned as they stared at the thick document.
After a moment, Chen Lian reacted, “How are we supposed to know that this is the cost of my mother’s hospital stay?”
Xia He added, “Yes! Where is your evidence? Why should we give you money when you ask us for it?”
Doctor Li appeared prepared and replied, “I’ll take you to see the patient now.
“After confirming that she’s your mother, I’ll show you the treatment and medication records for the past few days.
“Will that clear things up?”
Xia He and Chen Lian became even more anxious.
Xia He exclaimed, “What kind of hospital is this? You’ve generated so many bills in just a few days!
“This has to be a scam!”
Doctor T.i _ crossing his arms. asserted “This is the largest mental hospital in
town!
“If you have any doubts, feel free to investigate.”
“What? Mental hospital?!” Xia He screamed in shock.
He had never expected his mother to end up in such a place. Chen Lian was equally alarmed, fearing they might be locked up if they entered.
In an attempt to escape the situation, Xia He, tugging on Chen Lian’s clothes, said, “Well, Xia Hai, I’ll leave Mom’s matters to you. We still have things to handle at home, including setting up Xia Ye’s blind date for the next few days, so we won’t be coming back.”
With that, Xia He hurriedly pulled Chen Lian, and the two fled as though they feared being committed to the hospital.
Xia Hai and Yan Han exchanged puzzled glances, then turned to Doctor Li, who had secured the stack of papers in a cabinet.
Xia Hai stammered, “Doctor Li, what’s happening here? I’m finding it hard to grasp.”
Doctor Li reassured them, “Don’t worry; this is Miss Xia’s directive.”
“Wanwan?” Xia Hai was even more bewildered. “What has she done?” Yan Han joined in, “Why did you follow her instructions?”
Doctor Li displayed a look of admiration. “I’ve been a doctor for many years, and Miss Xia is the most resourceful and skilled person I’ve ever met.
“This sanatorium was previously shut down and later transformed into a temporary hospital in town.
“This morning, a Mr. Xu sent over a document—a transfer agreement for the hospital. Now, this sanatorium officially belongs to Miss Xia Wan.”
Xia Hai and Yan Han were in disbelief.
“What!”
Doctor Li remained composed, seemingly anticipating their reaction. ‘We’ll ensure Li Jin receives excellent care. Please don’t worry.”
Although Doctor Li explained the situation further, Xia Hai and Yan Han were too overwhelmed to absorb the details.
After Xia Wan returned home, she discovered Xia Hai and Yan Han sitting in a daze.
She knew they would struggle to understand and accept the idea of a private hospital, especially in this unconventional location.
Nevertheless, she needed to accumulate strength, and this sanatorium provided the perfect starting point.
Xia Wan had initially intended to discuss the matter with Chen MO upon his return.
However, after the commotion caused by Xia He and her husband, Xia Wan realized that she had to resolve this matter promptly. If she allowed someone else to take over, it would likely lead to further complications.
Regarding the swift approval of the document, Xia Wan hadn’t expected Xu Ye to act so swiftly.
She had only intended for him to create a temporary document to delay Xia He and her spouse, but he had already finalized the deal.
“Wanwan, how do you plan to manage such a substantial hospital?” Xia Hai looked at Xia Wan with concern.
Yan Han added, “Although you have some medical knowledge, running a hospital is a significant responsibility. You…”
Xia Wan interrupted, “Dad, Mom, do you trust me?
Xia Hai and Yan Han exchanged glances and sighed. “Well, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, make sure to let us know. We’ll do our best to support you!”
However, deep down inside, they knew that there was little they could do if Xia Wan really did encounter any trouble..
