Director Sun nodded solemnly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Qi deserves a reward—he’s a genius who needs early investment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, arrange a meeting with Lin Qi—day after tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood.

Such a genius was allowed to slip away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can’t imagine how many talents have been lost because of her over the years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Li, from now on, you’ll be the new Director.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll report to the Hall Director and have Gu Qian removed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Director Wang!” Deputy Director Li’s face lit up with joy—he was thrilled; that bitch Gu Qian was finally gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Gu Qian, still at home celebrating the holiday, was unaware she had been fired; she watched footage of the Disaster Beast tide on TV, bored, already thinking about where she’d go tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, a phone call came. Her face turned deathly pale; despair engulfed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the afternoon of January 16, Lin Qi’s family and Jiang Tao’s siblings were discharged from the hospital, preparing for tomorrow’s surgery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the morning of January 17\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianhai City First People’s Hospital, Convalescence Wing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Waiting area outside the Shockwave Therapy Room on the third floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ding!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The therapy door opened; a gurney slowly rolled out, followed by several doctors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi and Lin Zhen rose immediately to meet them, staring at Fang Huiyi, asleep on the gurney.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Li removed his mask and gloves, smiling:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Congratulations, both of you.
