Chapter 135: I Have the Evidence; Now I'm Going to Yuansheng Headquarters
June 18, 2004, 8:15 AM.
Inside the single-occupancy room of the Obstetrics Department, morning sunlight streamed through the blinds, casting soft bands of light on the clean floor.
Xue Yuan lay in the hospital bed, her face still pale, but compared to the deathly gray of yesterday when she was on the brink of death, she now showed a spark of life after surviving disaster.
In the incubator, a pair of tiny dragon-and-phoenix twins slept soundly; Chen Ran, the older sister, unconsciously waved her small hand.
Chen Qing sat by the bedside, gripping his wife's hand tightly, his eye sockets sunken, clearly having not slept all night. First release of this book: Read novels on Tiantian Kan Xiaoshuo, ttk. tw, super worry-free, providing you with error-free chapters and non-misordered chapter reading experience.
Seeing the doctors enter, he immediately stood up, his eyes filled with gratitude and fear of what had almost happened.
Director Zhai Lin entered the ward with Doctor Dai, Wang Chuan, Pei Nanli, and several other interns.
The routine morning ward round began.
Originally, Wang Chuan was on the night shift, but since he had participated in treating Xue Yuan after surgery yesterday and was more familiar with the case, Director Zhai had called him over as well.
Pei Nanli had no night shift; she was on the mid-shift yesterday, so today she was on the morning shift, as the rotations changed.
Director Zhai carefully checked Xue Yuan's monitoring data, the characteristics of the drainage fluid, and the abdominal wound dressing, then asked if she had any discomfort such as headache, blurred vision, or nausea.
Xue Yuan's voice was weak, but her mind was clear, and she answered each question one by one.
"Blood pressure is well controlled. Magnesium sulfate is still being maintained; remain vigilant against the risk of recurrent convulsions and increased intracranial pressure."
Director Zhai was teaching Wang Chuan, Pei Nanli, and the other interns.
"In a critical case of postpartum preeclampsia, even if temporarily stable, the first 72 hours are high-risk. Fluid management, blood pressure monitoring, and observation of neurological symptoms—none of these can be relaxed."
Doctor Dai added specific adjustments to the Medical Advice.
Wang Chuan pretended to accidentally brush his finger against Xue Yuan's arm.
Ding-dong, 【Clinical Medical Insight】 quietly activated.
The label above Xue Yuan's head had changed from 【Imminent Preeclampsia Convulsion】 to 【Recovery Phase of Preeclampsia Crisis, Requires Close Monitoring for Complications】.
Pei Nanli, standing nearby, quickly recorded the instructions from the Director and the attending physician.
Director Zhai suddenly called out, "Wang Chuan, your performance yesterday during the central venous puncture to establish the rescue channel was excellent."
Wang Chuan immediately added, "Doctor Dai operated together with me; with Doctor Dai present, I felt reassured."
Doctor Dai smiled and said, "Wang Chuan, let me test you. Explain the key points of postoperative care to Ms. Xue and Mr. Chen again, especially regarding catheter maintenance and infection prevention."
"Yes, Doctor Dai." Wang Chuan stepped forward, his voice steady and clear.
"Auntie Xue, Uncle Chen, this central venous catheter is a life-saving channel and cannot be removed for now. Be especially careful when turning or moving to avoid pulling or twisting it. The Nurses will regularly disinfect and change the dressing..."
His explanation was professional and patient, carrying a reassuring steadiness.
Xue Yuan looked at his young yet unusually reliable face, then recalled the words from yesterday when her consciousness was blurred, those words that pierced the darkness with unwavering strength: "Rest assured, I will save you." Her eyes instantly reddened again, and she nodded firmly.
Chen Qing repeatedly expressed his thanks.
After the ward round ended, Wang Chuan, fearing that staying alone would arouse suspicion, applied to conduct psychological comfort for Xue Yuan together with Pei Nanli.
Last night, after Wang Chuan and Pei Nanli left the Obstetrics Department, Wang Chuan asked Pei Nanli to tell her mother, Ning Hui, a little later.
He wanted to persuade Xue Yuan himself this morning, since during yesterday's preeclampsia treatment, Xue Yuan had clearly seen him saving her.
Director Zhai believed that since the two interns had participated in the treatment, their psychological comfort might be more effective, so he agreed.
The ward was temporarily quiet, with only the regular beeping of the instruments and the faint breathing of the infants in the incubator.
Wang Chuan walked to the bedside, looked at Xue Yuan and Chen Qing, and his tone was more solemn than before, also carrying the emotion of having survived disaster.
"Auntie Xue, how are you feeling now? Yesterday was extremely dangerous. Seeing that you and the babies are all safe is truly wonderful."
"Much better, much better..." Xue Yuan's voice was still somewhat weak, but her spirit was clearly much improved. Her gaze involuntarily drifted toward the two children in the incubator, filled with maternal tenderness. "Doctor Wang, the grace of saving my life... I..."
"Please don't say that. Seeing you safe is our greatest comfort."
Wang Chuan gently interrupted her, then looked at the couple with an honest and earnest gaze.
"Auntie Xue, Uncle Chen, the reason I stayed behind, besides confirming your condition, is actually to discuss one very important matter with you again. This matter directly relates to the biggest trouble your family is facing now: the house at Yuansheng Mingjiang Fu."
The expression of gratitude on Chen Qing's face slightly froze, and he sat up straight.
Xue Yuan also withdrew her gaze from the children and looked at Wang Chuan with some nervousness.
Wang Chuan did not beat around the bush but went straight to the core: "Yesterday, you refused me, wanted to keep it secret, and were worried about causing trouble; I completely understand."
"However, Xin Yuansheng, the Boss of Yuansheng Group, already knows about this matter." Wang Chuan took out his Mobile Phone, and Xin Yuansheng's phone number appeared on the contacts list.
"The situation has changed. Considering that you are a friend of Pei Nanli's mother, I am here to notify you in advance."
Having finished speaking, Wang Chuan dialed Xin Chanxi's number: "Little President Xin, you just came out of the President's Office, right? You come and explain Boss Xin's decision."
The Mobile Phone sound switched to speaker mode, and Wang Chuan whispered to Xue Yuan, "This is Boss Xin Yuansheng's daughter, the Deputy General Manager of the company."
On the other end of the phone, Xin Chanxi's voice rang out. These words were what Wang Chuan had told her over the phone early this morning.
"My father has just made a decision: to re-examine all homebuyers brought by An Yuan Real Estate, Xin Wang Real Estate, and An Family Real Estate."
"If it is discovered that they were originally walk-in customers who were deliberately converted into clients through real estate agency channels, first, cancel the home purchase price discount; second, cancel the parking space and property management fee discounts; third, and most importantly, sue the clients and the real estate agencies for colluding to defraud Yuansheng Group of commissions!"
These three measures struck straight at the hearts of Xue Yuan and her husband, and worry appeared on their pale faces.
"Little President Xin, Auntie Xue Yuan is my friend. Could you show some consideration? After all, they did not do it intentionally and were also deceived by others." Wang Chuan proposed to Xin Chanxi.
"That's fine. If she states the entire course of events truthfully and provides corresponding evidence, Yuansheng Group will issue a written commitment letter and will no longer pursue them."
"I see. I will discuss this with them!" Wang Chuan hung up the phone.
Xue Yuan glanced at Chen Qing, then looked at Wang Chuan, and made up her mind: "We... are willing to speak out."
The stone hanging in Wang Chuan's heart finally settled, and a look of genuine relief appeared on his face.
After the phone recorded the entire testimony of the home-buying process, Wang Chuan asked again, "Auntie Xue, do you have evidence proving that you were a walk-in customer?"
Lian Zhanhuai wanted to modify the customer attributes; the ledger registering walk-in customers had surely been destroyed.
Chen Qing suddenly said, "I have evidence. When we viewed the house, they gave us a walk-in customer registration card. This card was designed with a distinct ancient style. Before they took it back the next day, I took photos of both the front and the back."
Wang Chuan looked at the photos on Chen Qing's Mobile Phone. Indeed, there was a card the size of a Bank Card; the front had a deep ochre border with Cloud and Thunder patterns, and in the center was a seal script raised-character stamp reading 'Yuansheng Mingjiang Fu'.
It listed the honored guest's name, Xue Yuan; Mobile Phone number: 138********; and the auspicious date of visit: May 2, 2003.
The reverse side featured blue-and-white intertwined lotus patterns sprawling over a faux rice-paper background, bearing the small inscription "Made in the Guiwei Year" and a regular-script promise reading, "Present this note to enjoy exclusive privileges at Yazu."
"There is another one; Xue Yuan was discussing matters with the female salesperson, with a background wall depicting a meticulous Jiangnan garden painting; I took a photo of it too."
In the photo Wang Chuan saw, the salesperson's name badge displayed her name and the Yuan Province logo; his thumb quickly enlarged the blurry digital figures on the electronic calendar in the corner of the sales office: May 2, 2003.
A surge of joy rose within him; Wang Chuan immediately sent a message to Xin Chanxi: "I've secured the evidence; heading to Yuan Province Headquarters now!"
