Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2400: 2336: It's Best to Check Carefully

Previously on Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s...
Chiang Xiao discovers a subtle puncture wound on Liu Guoying's hand after his handshake with Hu Xiangyong, immediately suspecting foul play from the man's ring. Overcome with fear due to Hu Xiangyong's notorious reputation, she insists on an urgent hospital visit and tricks Liu Guoying into drinking a mysteriously sweet glass of water to safeguard him. Despite his skepticism and reluctance, she rushes him to the elite Alliance Hospital for a comprehensive check-up, her anxiety mounting over potential hidden dangers.

Indeed, should a serious illness arise that no other medical center can handle, one could seek permission to visit this place, yet that's entirely pointless in this case, right?

He's merely undergoing a routine examination.

Chiang Xiao bit her lip in silence and promptly linked her arm with his, heading directly inside the facility.

Only arriving at this spot allows her to experience some measure of relief.

This location is absolutely essential.

By now, she has grown well-acquainted with the hospital's chief, the various department leaders, and numerous physicians on staff. Initial encounters happened during Old Master Jiang's stay here, with deeper connections forming later amid Ah Liu's admission for an operation.

Furthermore, the chief executive and section supervisors are fully aware of her ties to Li Hanzhong.

Back then, Li Hanzhong had explicitly instructed them to heed her directives no matter the circumstances.

The key aspect lies in her current knowledge of which staff members align with Li Hanzhong and maintain strict confidentiality.

In any other scenario, she would feel utterly uneasy about seeking an examination at this venue.

After all, she remains uncertain about the extent of Second Master's influence or the network of allies he possesses.

She constantly suspects his bold and audacious behavior stems from powerful support, fearing any trail could trace back to Li Hanzhong.

Thus, utmost vigilance proves wise in all matters.

“Getting examined right here brings the greatest peace of mind, don't you think? Teacher, remember that my dad's procedure took place in this very hospital?”

“I notice plenty of Alliance Officers receiving care here too— is it truly fine for you to escort me in so casually?”

“What could possibly make it not fine?”

Chiang Xiao abruptly comprehended that Liu Guoying likely remained unaware of her actual background.

A wave of quiet reflection washed over her.

It appears she must seize a chance to reveal the truth to him.

Even though Liu Guoying understands Ah Liu hails from the D State Jiang Family, the clan boasts far too many members; it's unlikely he's linked her to Li Hanzhong.

Once inside the premises, Chiang Xiao guided him straight toward the director's chamber.

No prior reservation had been set, yet luckily, the director occupied his workspace at that moment.

Catching sight of her, he rose promptly, a touch of astonishment in his expression, and inquired, “Miss Jiang, what brings you by? Has something arisen?”

Her unexpected arrival at the hospital caused his pulse to quicken in alarm.

As the initial figure to acknowledge her proper as Miss Jiang rather than Miss Chiang, he has consistently addressed her accordingly.

Despite his elevated status as director, overseeing the treatments of Old Master Jiang and Sixth Young Master Jiang marks dealings with exceptional individuals, compelling him to exercise extreme caution.

Their successful discharges from the facility had filled him with profound gratitude.

He earnestly hopes no new complications have emerged.

Chiang Xiao hastened to reassure, “Nothing like that, Director. I actually need to ask a favor of you.”

“No trouble at all—just tell me what you require.”

Liu Guoying gazed in stunned silence as Chiang Xiao conversed with the director.

Does the Jiang Family truly wield such immense sway?

Why is the director extending such deference to this young woman?

Chiang Xiao introduced, “Allow me to present my teacher, Liu Guoying.”

“Master Liu, your reputation precedes you.” The director approached and extended a handshake to Liu Guoying.

His familiarity with Liu Guoying stems from the staff's broad understanding of Chiang Xiao's circumstances, including her status as a celebrated artist and art academy pupil under the guidance of the prominent Liu Guoying in artistic circles.

Hence, his words carried genuine admiration.

“Greetings, Director—apologies for the imposition.” Liu Guoying inwardly yearned to shoot Chiang Xiao a stern look.

Wasn't this imposing on him excessively?

A simple health scan, and she insisted on dragging him to the top administrator?

Should everything check out normal, wouldn't it turn into an embarrassing farce?

“Think nothing of it. Please, Miss Jiang, explain the situation.”
