At the same time, in Director Si’s office, Si Xing put down the phone in his hand and sighed with a complicated expression.

Si Yan was sitting on the sofa opposite him with one leg crossed lazily. He was curious to see his second uncle’s expression gradually darken after receiving two calls.

Playing with the exquisite teacup in his hand, he asked, “What’s this? Why are you so unhappy after receiving two calls one after another, old man? What happened? Tell me and give me some amusement.”

When Si Xing heard his nephew’s words, he glared at him and asked unhappily, “What did you just call me, you little brat? I am your second uncle! I’ll beat you up if you continue to be so rude!”

Si Yan looked at Si Xing with a nonchalant smile. His nonchalant attitude made one’s head throb, which directly confirmed the ‘bad name’ his second uncle had given him. He said, “Why are you being so mean? I’m just concerned about you. Plus, I’m wondering, what in this hospital could give you such a headache? You’re my second uncle, what’s so difficult for you?”

Si Xing snorted coldly at his nephew before sighing again. He had never been able to do anything to this brat. “It’s not really a problem within the hospital. It’s just that a good student of mine has some problems in her love life and she’s making a fuss about it. I’m just feeling troubled for her!”

“A good student of yours? Who is it?” As Si Yan spoke, the light in his eyes suddenly flickered. He thought of the person he had met downstairs. He chuckled and asked tentatively, “It can’t be Wen Xi, right? She’s already married at such a young age? Moreover, she already has a problem with her love life? Could it be that her husband did something to let her down?”

He was just making a wild guess, but the smile on his face slowly disappeared when he saw the strange expression on Si Xing’s face. He moved closer to Si Xing and asked in surprise, “Is it really her? Who is her husband?”

Si Xing was speechless.

Seeing that his second uncle did not answer his question and only looked at him without moving, his wise eyes revealed a strange and scrutinizing look.

He cleared his throat and straightened his back. As if to hide his sudden curiosity, he explained, “When I went to the Cardiovascular Surgery Department just now, I ran into a group of hooligans who were looking for trouble with one of the doctors there. They adhered to the excellent traditional virtue of ‘helping when they see injustice’, so I gave them a helping hand! Do you know who that troublesome doctor was?”

Si Xing knew very well that once he felt guilty, he would act like this. He snorted lightly and asked without giving him any face, “If you helped, then just say that you helped. Why are you feeling guilty? What shameful thing did you do?”

Si Yan was stumped by his second uncle’s words. He looked at him speechlessly before he denied, “When did I ever feel guilty? Second Uncle, we’re talking about your issue right now, not mine, alright? Tell me what’s bothering you, maybe I can help you share some of your worries!”

Si Xing didn’t really want to continue bickering with his nephew, mainly because he wasn’t in the mood. After sighing softly, he said with a complicated expression, “This is someone else’s private matter, so why are you so curious? It has nothing to do with you!”

“If you have the time to gossip about other people, you might as well quickly finish your business! Over the years, our family has put in a lot of effort to promote this Public Welfare Medical Support Project. Since you took charge of it from your father, then you have to manage it well, okay?”

Si Xing’s expression became serious as he spoke. He looked at his nephew and nodded in satisfaction. Before Si Yan could say anything, he continued ,”I take back my last words. You’ll definitely do well. You’re our Si Yan, after all. Second Uncle believes in you!”

“This is a good thing that will accumulate great merit, and it’s more meaningful than some simple charity aid. As long as everything goes smoothly, it’ll be of great benefit to your reputation in A City and even the entire country Z. It’s a sure-win ‘deal’!”
