Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now! Chapter 1206 - 359: [The Critically Ill Big Boss] (Part 3)
Previously on Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!...
After the car arrived at the hospital, there were indeed a large number of reporters lingering on the street outside, but the hospital had already arranged security outside, not allowing media personnel to enter the hospital.
As the car drove into the underground passage, some quick-reacting media tried to chase and film, but the anti-peep glass made it impossible to see who was inside the car.
In the underground parking lot, there were a few men whose physique and aura appeared robust waiting; they should be the Liu Family’s own security personnel.
In the car on the way, Chu Keqing had introduced that the Liu Family had good relations with Beijing and had hired several retired special talents from Dragon Country’s military to serve as security through connections.
At this moment, it seems that these guys, in terms of build and appearance, are not local to Port City; they should be the ones Chu Keqing was talking about.
With strict clearing of the area, Chen Yan got out of the car, holding Lu Sisi’s hand, accompanied by Chu Keqing, and entered the elevator, with two burly men arranged to follow along the way.
The elevator reached the top floor, which had been entirely cleared.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, Chen Yan saw outside the elevator doors, standing in the corridor, a short, thin middle-aged man.
He looked about forty, wearing glasses, and his suit seemed to be custom-fit. But he appeared very weary and worn out, and the suit seemed to have not been changed for days, looking somewhat crumpled.
Judging by his demeanor, he should be someone accustomed to issuing commands at a higher level.
The man’s gaze first fell on Chu Keqing inside the elevator, and it seemed he breathed a sigh of relief before his gaze swept over Chen Yan and Lu Sisi, finally landing on Chen Yan.
Upon seeing Chen Yan’s youthful face, he seemed slightly startled, and his eyes inevitably grew complicated.
Actually, with such a significant matter, Chu Keqing would surely have explained to the Liu Family that the invited expert was quite young.
With an attitude of believing it if you will, and leaving if you don’t, the Liu Family had acknowledged it back then.
But upon actually witnessing Chen Yan himself, seeing that youthful face barely over twenty, one couldn’t help but feel a thump in their heart.
While it was said to be young, this is... a bit too young!
Chen Yan maintained a calm demeanor, his gaze indifferent, and after meeting the eyes of this middle-aged man, he shifted his gaze to the corridor.
He was pleased; the corridor was clean and empty, free from any random personnel.
The medical staff had also been evacuated.
"This is Mr. Liu Zhaoming, the eldest son of Mr. Liu Sr."
Chu Keqing introduced.
Chen Yan nodded inwardly.
The Liu Family was indeed knowledgeable about manners: the eldest son greeting the esteemed guest.
Moreover, being the eldest son, he should be the heir of the Liu Family.
Then, Chu Keqing stepped aside half a step, letting Chen Yan stand in the center, and addressed Liu Zhaoming, "Mr. Liu, this is the esteemed expert I mentioned, Mr. Chen."
Liu Zhaoming seemed to have some depth; despite feeling uneasy about seeing Chen Yan so young, he didn’t say anything immediately. Instead, he steadied his nerves and forced out a polite smile, "Mr. Chen, thank you for coming."
Chu Keqing spoke slowly, "Alright, time is tight; let’s go see Mr. Liu Sr. first."
Liu Zhaoming’s face was solemn, but his eyes were uncertain and balancing, yet he eventually nodded, "Please."
Chen Yan realized that this man actually doubted him, but probably thanks to the demeanor and propriety nurtured by a wealthy family, he didn’t say anything openly. It’s probably also a case of grasping at straws in desperation, hoping for a miracle.
Mr. Liu Sr. lay in a room at the end of the hallway.
Here was a standard ICU setup, with a sterile room treatment, various instruments, etc...
Inside the room looked spacious, and Mr. Liu Sr. was lying in bed, thin and haggard, with tubes inserted on his body and mouth, with various instruments beside him emitting frequent beeping sounds.
Outside the ward, following Chen Yan’s instructions, the area had also been cleared. Besides Liu Zhaoming, two others from the Liu Family remained.
One was a middle-aged woman exuding affluence, who appeared not very old, about forty-something. Her clothes and attire seemed somewhat old-fashioned, her expression weary, and under her eyes, there were dark circles tinged with blue.
This one should be Mr. Liu Sr.’s wife.
However, it’s said that she wasn’t the first wife, as the original passed away many years ago; this one is Mr. Liu Sr.’s remarried wife.
Another was a young woman appearing no older than twenty or thirty, dressed in the style of a genuinely rich household’s daughter or socialite, albeit in a more conservative way in the hospital.
This young woman resembled the middle-aged woman by about five or six parts, probably suggesting a mother-daughter relationship.
Liu Zhaoming first went over and softly introduced Chu Keqing and the others to the mother and daughter; once finished, the young woman looked at Chen Yan, her expression changed, and she blurted out, "Isn’t he too young?!"
These words spilled out, and Liu Zhaoming immediately furrowed his brow, instinctively glancing at Chen Yan and the others.
Chu Keqing’s eyes turned cold, about to speak, but Chen Yan already patted her arm, without even looking at the young woman, and looked at Liu Zhaoming, "Mr. Liu, can we start now? I need to go inside and have a close look at Mr. Liu Sr."
Liu Zhaoming hesitated for a moment, about to speak, when the young woman also looked at Liu Zhaoming, "Brother, he’s too young; this young, can he..."
"Alright, don’t say such things." Liu Zhaoming somewhat reluctantly interrupted the young woman.
