Chapter 457
457 A Troublemaker
Zhang Li Xue texted her mother that she would not be going home and instead, will return to her apartment with Bai Qi.
Just like any other newlywed, Zhang Li Xue also hoped that she could take a long break and go on her honeymoon with her husband.
Unfortunately, with Bai Qi’s work, it was not easy for him to take a few days off. Bai Qi was always busy with the hospital and because of his position, he wanted to work hard so that others would not think that he was taking advantage of his relationship with Qi Zheng.
Being a doctor, and a surgeon was something that Bai Qi had wanted to become. Therefore, as a wife, Zhang Li Xue wanted to support him.
Bai Qi knew what his wife was thinking and was thankful for her support.
After a discussion, the two of them decided that they definitely will have to go for their honeymoon after their wedding banquet.
At that time, her leg would be healed and she could also move around freely.
Zhang Li Xue waited for Bai Qi to finish his work. Then, the two of them left the hospital together.
Bai Qi helped his wife to her wheelchair and pushed her out of his office.
.....
As they were approaching the nurse’s station, Zhang Li Xue saw that a man with salt and pepper hair seemed to be arguing with Nurse Tian.
Her brow furrowed.
As if noticing their presence, the man turned around to look at them. The moment that man saw Bai Qi, his expression began to change. He turned and walked over in their direction.
“Mister, I’m telling you that you can’t be here!”
Nurse Tian wanted to stop that man, but the man seemed stronger than her. Just like that, Nurse Tian has pushed aside.
Seeing the man approaching, Bai Qi quickly moved to stand in front of his wife’s wheelchair. His tall body was blocking that man from her.
“Mister Bai, I have been waiting for you for a long time.” The man looked anxious while he was speaking to Nurse Tian earlier. And now that he was in front of Bai Qi, it seemed that his mood had turned worst.
Zhang Li Xue peeked from behind her husband. She looked at the elder man and thought that his face looked a little familiar. However, she could not recall when she had seen him.
“Uncle, you cannot be here.” Bai Qi showed him to the door. “Please leave. This is the hospital. Not a place where you can make trouble.”
“I will leave. But you have to listen to me first,” the man insisted.
Bai Qi shifted his gaze to Nurse Tian and signaled her to call in security. Then, he turned to that man again, “I already said what needed to be said. Uncle, please leave.”
His words only made the man enraged. “I won’t leave until you talk to me. Bai Qi! I came all the way here to discuss things with you. I won’t leave.”
Zhang Li Xue narrowed her eyes. She could see that this man knew her husband.
But... who was he? A troublemaker? Why was he looking for Bai Qi?
Zhang Li Xue could not help but think that the words the man spoke to Bai Qi sounded a little strange.
Bai Qi became impatient as he looked at the man. However, because his wife was still around, Bai Qi could not act recklessly and caused his wife to be injured.
The old man heaved a long breath. “Look. I already know my mistake. Bai Qi, I will return whatever money my brother took from you. But in exchange, you have to let my brother go.”
“I already said that I will leave everything to the law. Uncle, if there’s anything, you should talk to my lawyer.”
“You!” Bai Qi’s words only turned the man angrier. He raised his hand, wanting to hit Bai Qi. However before he could hit him in the face, Bai Qi had already blocked his attack.
The man struggled to free his hand but failed.
At the side, some of the staff were screaming in fear.
Bai Qi gripped the man’s wrist tightly before turning to Nurse Tian again.
As if she could understand what he wanted her to do, Nurse Tian moved to wheel Zhang Li Xue away from the scene.
Once she was farther away, Zhang Li Xue turned to Nurse Tian and whispered, “Nurse Tian, what happened? Who is that person?”
Nurse Tian looked in Bai Qi’s direction with worry. Every few seconds, she would look at the door, hoping that the security guards would come up and help them with this situation.
Hearing Zhang Li Xue’s question, Nurse Tian then shook her head. “This man came to look for Doctor Bai yesterday. But I’m not sure what is going on either.”
Even if she asked, Doctor Bai refused to tell her anything.
Later, she heard that Doctor Bai had gone to Doctor Qi’s room and the two of them talked for a long time. Knowing that Bai Qi had talked to someone, Nurse Tian decided not to think too much about this matter.
Nurse Tian thought that this episode was over. However, she did not expect that this man would show up again. This time, he appeared more aggressive than he was yesterday.
Just then, the elevator opened and the security guards came over to drag that man away. While he was dragged away, the man continued to mutter a few curses to Bai Qi.
The elevator door closed again and the atmosphere in the department turned quiet.
Bai Qi glanced at Nurse Tian and flashed her a smile. “Nurse Tian, thank you.” Then, he looked at the other staff and spoke, “I’m very sorry for the disturbance.” He wanted to promise that something like this won’t happen again, but Bai Qi did not want to make a promise that he was not sure he could keep.
Moreover, he had a feeling that the person will continue to harass him for a while.
After saying a few words to the staff, Bai Qi went back to his wife and flashed a smile. “Are you alright? Did I frighten you?”
Zhang Li Xue shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Bai Qi heaved a sigh. “Let’s go back now. I know that you have a lot of questions for me, but I’ll explain to you a while later.”
