Female Novel
chapter 15 I'm pursuing Olivia Xia
Upon seeing the situation, Director Zhao's eyebrows furrowed deeply, a hint of worry evident in hisgaze as he quickly glanced at the tall and imposing man beside him. The man had a slight smile onhis lips, but his eyes were sharp and piercing. Wiping off some sweat, Director Zhao began, "Si..."
Xavier Si took two steps forward, standing in front of Olivia Xia. "How much more do you need forthe medical expenses?"
Unexpectedly, Xavier Si would show up at such an awkward moment. Olivia Xia coughed lightly toease the tension and said, "No worries, I've paid it all."
Xavier Si raised an eyebrow, "Oh?"
Just as the young nurse was about to speak, Mrs. Liu shouted, “What do you mean you’ve paid itall? You poor thing, not only could you not afford the 1 million plus bill at once, even paying off thequarterly amount of three to four hundred thousand would be impossible for you.”novelbin
"If Tyrone Xia doesn't give you money, a person like you won't even make a million if you go out andsell yourself," Chole Liu smirked.
As soon as Chole Liu's words fell, she felt a sharp gaze on her, sending a shiver down her spine,making her feel like she was in an ice cellar.
At this moment, the young nurse, who had been constantly interrupted, finally had a chance tospeak, "Director Zhao, Mrs. Liu, and Miss Liu, you all have misunderstood. Miss Xia just had meuse her card to pay off the previous quarter's hospitalization and medication fees and prepay for thenext year..."
Director Zhao was stunned, and Mrs. Liu widened her eyes in astonishment, "What, what did yousay?"
"This is impossible! Where did she get the money?"
Chole Liu regained her composure and met Xavier Si's gaze. Her heart skipped a beat as shelooked upon his extraordinarily handsome face. Her cheeks flushed a deep shade of red almostimmediately, and she began subconsciously adjusting her clothes and tidying up her hair.
"This seems to have nothing to do with you," Xavier Si said, his hands in his pockets, standing lazilynext to Olivia Xia. He sneered, "Director Zhao, does the hospital allow patients to continue staying ifthey owe fees?"
"Exactly, she's been in arrears for so long. Why hasn't she been kicked out yet? Isn't this a waste ofresources? Do you know how many patients can't get a room in the hospital and can't receivetreatment because of such instances?" Mrs. Liu angrily shouted.
Director Zhao looked at Xavier Si's expression and straightened up, saying, "Usually, suchsituations do not occur. However, Mrs. Yue has been here for six years and has consistently paidher fees on time in the past. With Deputy Director Qi acting as a guarantor, our hospital hasadopted a more humane approach to her situation."
Xavier Si nodded slightly, "In that case, if a patient needs to be asked to leave the ward, it should bethe responsibility of the hospital. Since when can one patient arbitrarily ask another patient toleave? Moreover, Mrs. Yue's outstanding payment for the ward is her personal privacy. Can thehospital disclose a patient's privacy to outsiders at will?"
Director Zhao wiped away his cold sweat, "This is our oversight in management. Please restassured that we will thoroughly investigate this matter and not let the patient and her family down."
"Good," Xavier Si nodded and glanced at Mrs. Liu, then turned to Olivia Xia, "Shall we go in to seeyour mother?"
Was he going to meet her parents so quickly?
When Olivia Xia was hesitating, Chole Liu suddenly adopted a gentler tone, "This gentleman isabsolutely right. Who could it be that deliberately leaked information to us? It's obvious they knew Iwanted to change rooms and intentionally provoked us to come here and cause trouble."
After saying that, she looked at her mother with a pitiful expression and said, "Mom, I just wanted tochange to a more comfortable room. I've been following the hospital's procedures all along. It'sdefinitely someone deliberately trying to harm us, making us come up here to stir up trouble."
Mrs. Liu couldn't understand why her daughter suddenly changed, but she followed along, "That'sright, Director Zhao, we hope you can explain this matter."
So, initially, they were the troublemakers, but with Chole Liu's words, they had turned into victims,as if they had been manipulated.
Olivia Xia glanced at Chole Liu and saw her constantly looking at Xavier Si. She couldn't help butsmile and said coldly, "So, Miss Liu, are you saying that everything you just said was instigated bysomeone else?"
"Miss Xia, I admit I made a mistake in this matter. I shouldn't have let my emotions be manipulatedso easily. But, I am a dancer, my legs were seriously injured, and I almost couldn't dance orparticipate in the provincial competition. These days in the regular ward were tormented, so it'sunderstandable that my emotions got out of control."
Chole Liu lowered her head, appearing pitiful.
Olivia Xia couldn't help but laugh, "Miss Liu, perhaps you should consider acting instead ofdancing."
After speaking, Olivia Xia turned her head and looked calmly at Director Zhao. "Director Zhao, Iwould appreciate it if you could handle this matter. My mother has suffered so much for no reason. Ifthe hospital cannot provide a reasonable explanation, I will seek justice in my own way."
"Director Zhao is reasonable, and I don't think you'd want the hospital to have such incidentshappen again. If this were to be exposed online, it could significantly impact the hospital," Olivia Xiaadded, mixing reason with a hint of threat, causing Director Zhao to nod uncontrollably.
If it were only Olivia Xia, Director Zhao might not have paid much attention, but a powerful figurewas standing next to her.
Director Zhao didn’t dare say a single word.
Chole Liu wanted to say more to Xavier Si, but Olivia Xia had already taken his hand. She elegantlyopened the door to the hospital room and, with a cold demeanor, shut out all the noise from theoutside.
As soon as Xavier Si left, the atmosphere in the corridor became considerably lighter. DirectorZhao, no longer looking nervous, directed the hospital staff to take Mrs. Liu and her daughter awayand ordered a thorough investigation into the matter.
Inside the hospital room, soothed by the music, Sofia Yue's condition had already improvedconsiderably. Seeing Olivia Xia enter, she quickly removed her headphones. "Darling..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she noticed that Olivia Xia was holding a man's hand, and hereyebrows immediately furrowed.
Olivia Xia calmly withdrew her hand from Xavier Si's and handed a glass of water to Sofia Yue."Mom, have some water first. The situation outside has been resolved."
Sofia Yue nodded slightly and then glanced at Xavier Si by her side. "Who is this?"
"Hello, Aunt. I'm Xavier Si, and I'm…," Xavier Si replied, but Olivia Xia interrupted him.
"My prospective boyfriend," Olivia Xia coughed and replied indifferently.
Xavier Si didn't expose Olivia Xia's remark. Instead, he smiled charmingly and nodded, "Yes, I'mpursuing Olivia Xia."
Olivia Xia gave Xavier Si an approving look. This guy had high emotional intelligence.
Xavier Si raised an eyebrow as if responding to Olivia Xia.
However, their intimate interaction, seen through Sofia Yue's eyes, had a different meaning.
Sofia Yue's voice was distant and aloof as she said, "Mr. Si, my daughter is still young and currentlyhas no plans to date. Besides, with me around as a burden, she doesn't have time for arelationship."
Xavier Si smiled, "Auntie, don't worry. I'll wait for her. And as for you, you won't be a burden. On thecontrary, you'll be the best witness to our happiness."
Sofia Yue couldn't help but look at Xavier Si for a moment. He was quite eloquent, had a silvertongue, and looked better than most women. It's no wonder he could win her daughter's heart. So,she wouldn't let her daughter be easily deceived.
