Chapter 327 A Demand
Fang Bingwen was an Architect, and Fang Group was all about that sector.
Everything that had to do with making a building plan, landscaping, building and interior design, Fang Group was there to take of the matter.
And being in this line of work, he was able to help Zhang Liling renovate the building and work on the interior design.
Most of the ground work was done by Fang Group who got the contract for them.
Well, Zhang Liling already had him by her side, so she wasn't stranded. Thankfully, she differentiated personal relationship from business, and made sure to pay up her bill in full.
Taking a cab, Zhang Liling went straight to Fang Group to deliver a package to Mr. Fang.
Because cabs were not allowed into the underground parking lot, Zhang Liling had to get down from the car and carry the two boxes into the building herself.
At the reception, Zhang Liling walked up the receptionist to give her name.
"Hello, I'm here to see my boyfriend." She said to the older woman with a stuck-up smile on her face, surprising her in the least.
Zhang Liling didn't even look embarrassed while making that kind of request. At first, she had wanted to say, 'Mr. Fang' but at end, she used 'My boyfriend'.
She found out that it was weird to address him so officially at his place of work instead of proving her close their relationship was.
And in order to do that, she made sure to tell the woman how dear the person she came to see was without bothering if she would be able to recognize her.
But thankfully, the woman recognized her and didn't bother to ask if she had made an appointment before coming over.
The receptionist directly placed a call straight to Fang Bingwen's office using the telephone and after two rings, the man answered.
"Hello, Mr. Fang, Ms. Zhang is at the front desk. She wants to see you."
"Send her up." Fang Bingwen replied a s immediately hung up.
*******
These past few days, Shi Wenqian has been busy with quite a few things.
At least if no one wanted to listen or pay attention to her, she could at least focus on her work.
If no love was coming her way, she would put all her attention into her work to gain more connection and money.
What else was she living for?
Immediately after breakfast that morning, she left for her health Foundation.
She was very interested in knowing how many people were checking in to donate their kidneys or any of their body parts.
She didn't really care about their blood as she was doing nothing with it. They were already having more than enough blood in their different blood group banks.
Normal blood didn't give her money as she had to give them all to the hospitals in need of them.
Her main interest was on their body organ that gave her lots of money, hence, she came to check the records to find out if there had been any one soon.
As soon as she got into her office and settled down, one of the top doctors handling the health centre, stepped in to inform her of a business deal.
"You didn't even let me sit. Do we have a kidney or a heart donor?" Shi Wenqian asked as her eyes followed him till he sat from across her desk.
"No, but instead we have a demand." The doctor revealed.
Squinting her eyes, she probed, "From who?"
To that question, the doctor leaned in and spoke in a low tone. "The Chief minister."
Immediately, Shi Wenqian's eyes flew open. She could feel her heart begin to pound heavily in her chest.
A minister of S City's government wanted an organ.
This was a troublesome affair.
Why would someone of that calibre come to her health organisation to request for an organ? He could have gone through his doctor to make the request, but he came directly to her.
Was he suspecting her and therefore wanted to test her out, or was he serious in need of an organ transplant?
Whichever the case might be, Shi Wenqian had to find out, but she must tread carefully.
Trying to hide her fear, she released a deep breath she has been holding in, then shifting her gaze back to the doctor in his white coat, she asked,
"Which one does he want?"
"Two kidneys."
"Two what?!" Shi Wenqian exclaimed in shock as her eyes flew open.
How could one man request for two kidneys, what was his aim and without wasting time, she began to throw questions at the man before her.
In due time, she got answers to her questions which made her a little relieved.
At least Chief minister didn't come to her for help because he had a hunch about her underground business that supported her health Foundation, but because of his health issues.
Two of his kidneys were failing and only a transplant could save his life.
"How could he let two of his kidneys to fail at the same time?" Shi Wenqian asked with a troubled expression on her face.
These days business was not going that smoothly for her and even if she had some stocks, she wasn't sure it was going to be a match, then he had to need two. Things were not going to be easy.
"Next time he calls, hint at him to reach me directly on my personal line and not through work." Shi Wenqian instructed before sending him away.
Through out the time she spent at work, she was lost in thoughts strategizing on how to get the kidneys the Chief minister needed for his transplant.
At last, she got an idea and immediately, she picked up the landline to phone the same doctor that had left her office a few hours ago.
As soon as he answered the call, she laid out a few instructions for him to follow.
"Tell the minister that he has to come down to this place to carry out a few tests that would help to find matches for his organ."
They would be carrying out the tests a real hospital does. That way, the man would think that there was nothing shady going on with her foundation in case he had other intentions at the back of his mind.
