Chapter 372: Chapter 372
All along the way, Hu Jianda kept trying to strike up a conversation with Ji Yu, acting as if he was quite familiar with her.
But Ji Yu was fully aware of what he was up to. Tactics might work with others, but to her, they were nothing but exasperating.
Fortunately, they soon arrived at the hospital, and Ji Yu had no intention of continuing the conversation. Instead, she led him to see the doctor.
After all, she did have some connections here.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Hu Jianda couldn’t help showing signs of impatience.
"Yu, you probably don’t know that your father has a doctor who’s familiar with his condition. If you casually switch doctors, it might not be very appropriate."
Ji Yu didn’t quite agree with this notion of inappropriateness. At the very least, she wasn’t thinking that way at all.
"I’ve asked someone for help because I know this doctor’s skills are excellent. If anything goes wrong, I’ll take full responsibility. Besides, Uncle, your nervousness—could it be that you’re hiding something?"
She smiled at Hu Jianda with narrowed eyes.
Her tone was casual and joking, yet it made Hu Jianda feel as if his plans had been completely exposed.
Faced with such a situation, he genuinely didn’t know what to say.
Ji Yu simply wanted to make it clear to him that she was now suspicious, and if he planned on making any moves, he had better think twice. Otherwise, he’d have to deal with the consequences.
"Yu, what are you implying? Could I ever harm my own brother? I’m just as worried about your father’s condition as you are. He’s my brother, someone very important to me."
Her attitude made Hu Jianda realize that acting overly guilty would only lead to one outcome.
"That’s not what I meant at all. I simply believe my father should receive the best possible treatment. If I know a more skilled doctor, why should I listen to your suggestions instead?" Updates are released by novel⸺fire.net
Ji Yu was firm and resolute in her stance, no matter the situation. Right now, she was genuinely concerned about her father. If anything happened to Hu Jianyu, she’d regret it for the rest of her life. Treating him was her top priority.
Besides, the accuracy of those previous medical test results was still up for debate.
Hu Jianyu had noticed that Ji Yu harbored suspicions toward almost everyone. Even though he didn’t doubt his own brother, he knew it was crucial not to let Ji Yu down in this matter.
"Brother, let’s just go with what Yu proposed. If it helps ease her worries, changing doctors isn’t an issue."
He had no hesitation when it came to agreeing with Ji Yu’s decisions.
Hu Jianda grew even more frustrated. This was precisely what he wanted to avoid, which is why he always insisted on being personally involved. Now that Ji Yu wanted to switch doctors, his plans were at risk of being exposed.
His heart felt genuinely uncomfortable.
"Alright then, let’s just see how things go. If this new doctor turns out to be less competent than the previous one, we can always switch back."
He remained quite persistent about this matter.
Ji Yu understood the underlying implications of his statement. It was likely that Hu Jianda had planted several spies in the hospital. While this moment might have caught him off guard, he still had opportunities to recover.
Ji Yu, however, found such obstacles easy to handle.
She had already planned to involve others to help.
It was just unclear what the final situation would be.
She smiled at Hu Jianda again. "Since Uncle has agreed, let’s hope the examination goes smoothly this time."
After arranging for someone to carry out the medical examinations, Ji Yu went to the hospital director to review recent records.
"So, this doctor joined the hospital recently?"
"Yes." The director, somewhat familiar with Ji Yu, deliberately hinted at something. "Sometimes, these machines require human intervention to operate. The final results—well, only people know the truth."
In other words, the test results might not be entirely genuine.
Ji Yu nodded, fully grasping the implication. She was determined to get to the bottom of this matter.
She didn’t know what kind of tricks had been played, but if this continued, Hu Jianyu’s body wouldn’t hold up.
"Yu, are you still planning to deal with Chongxin Group?"
"I don’t have time to worry about Chongxin at the moment. You’ve seen it yourself—I’ve been busy staying by my father’s side these days." She was determined to focus on her father’s treatment. If anything happened to him, Ji Yu knew she’d carry the regret forever.
The director wanted to say more, but seeing her resolve, he chose not to press further.
"I hope everything goes as smoothly as you plan."
When the final test results came back identical to the previous ones, Hu Jianda finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yu, it’s better not to question your elders so easily. I only want the people around me to live happily. Look at the awkwardness you’ve caused now—how will we face each other in the future?"
He smiled at Ji Yu, seemingly trying to resolve the matter peacefully.
But Ji Yu had long since formed her own conclusions and felt no obligation to explain further.
"It’s good that nothing’s wrong with my father. But Uncle, whether you have a problem or not—isn’t that something you know better than anyone? Besides, if even Hu Qianqian isn’t worried about awkwardness, why should I be?"
She was very confident in her stance and position.
Hu Jianda’s gaze turned colder, though he made sure not to let Hu Jianyu catch on, as that would surely cause more trouble.
"Alright, now that the examinations are done, let’s head back."
Ji Yu was ready. Gu Qixiao was already reaching out to specialists. Ji Yu refused to accept the current results. After all, the director had made it abundantly clear—machines could be manipulated by people.
And this case was no exception.
"Yu, are you still suspicious of your uncle? Maybe things aren’t as complicated as you think." Hu Jianyu didn’t want to see the worst in his family. To him, at least, family bonds still mattered.
