Chapter 035 Invitation
…
The afternoon sun is high up in the sky enveloping the entire world with its brightness and glory. Those that are under its influence bask and toil with their sweat pouring down their brows.
Usually, at this time of the day, people would choose to either hide from its blazing hot radiance or go through it as it is part of their day.
Vie Hospital lobby area
A tall and beautiful woman walked inside the hospital lobby. She is wearing dark blue six-pocket denim shorts exposing her slender white knee and shin, while she wears high-cut rubber shoes. The loose white T-shirt hangs on her body showing off a part of her cool charm.
Jisoo did not wear a mask but her usual large dark glasses with her raven black hair tied up in a bun. This exposes her long white slender neck which glitters as the rays of the sun land on its jade-like surface.
Many of the men that saw her entering the lobby could not help but take a second glance at her, while others have their eyes glued on her figure.
"Is she an actress or something?" a young woman muttered while looking at Jisoo with her mouth slightly agape.
"I cannot see her face clearly, but I could tell that she is a beauty…" a man said while he looks at her with admiring eyes.
Sung Jisoo did not mind the words that the people are saying, she is just here because of the transaction she has with the Yang family.
Soon she saw three people sitting calmly in the lobby and quickly noticed the man in his 40s who closely resembles the ghost of Ronald Yang.
As she approaches the two people, she showed a faint smile on her beautiful face.
But before she could reach them, she noticed that the two seem a bit weird as they are looking not toward her but at a woman on her far left.
This woman walked in with her, and Jisoo knew that she is a doctor at the hospital from the phone conversation she heard before she enters the lobby.
"Hello! Are you Miss Sung?" asked James Yang to the doctor.
The woman showed a confused expression and then shakes her head.
"I'm sorry… I'm not…" the woman said as she takes out her hospital ID.
When the three saw her ID they nod their heads and apologize.
"She is not that doctor? Uncle, have you been scammed or something?" the young woman who is one of the people with James Yang commented while shaking her head.
"Cousin, I think that woman is a fraud… We should report her…" the other man suggested.
"Report me? Then who would cure that old man of his sickness then?" suddenly a beautiful voice interrupted the three.
They turn their heads and then saw a beautiful young woman calmly sitting on the soft chair next to them.
The three showed confusion in their eyes and did not react immediately.
"Sigh… Time is precious… Let's go see the old man…" Jisoo did not have time to play with them.
She then turns her head toward the guy on the side and then said.
"You're that guy who always said that I was a fraud, right? The reason why I added another 100k credit to the treatment fee?... Hahaha…" Jisoo chuckled while looking at the guy.
But the guy just looks at her incredulously. Although he had seen plenty of beautiful women in his life, he could not deny the fact that the woman before him should be the most attractive woman he has laid his eyes on compared to others.
Plus, while sitting near them, he could actually get a whiff of her natural fragrant body which made him want to close his eyes and savor the scent.
"Miss Sung?" James Yang asked with a squint.
Jisoo nodded her head and show a faint smile.
She then stood up and looks at the three.
"Lead the way please…"
James Yang quickly recovered from his stupor and quickly walked forwards while gesturing for her to follow.
But deep in his heart, he feels a bit suspicious. How could such a young woman heal his father when the other doctors are unable to?
It was a bit unbelievable, impossible even, but he could not help and put his trust in the young woman. There is something in her eyes that tells him to trust her.
As the four figures walked toward the elevator, the man and the young woman scrutinized Jisoo. The young woman could not help but notice her casual look and a slightly mocking smile appears on her face. Although she could not deny the beauty of the woman before her which made her feel a bit jealous, she also could not help but mock her low-quality clothing.
In her mind, she thought, "She might be beautiful, but she is poor…"
Meanwhile, the man behind Jisoo could not help but quietly savor the scent which tingle his senses to ecstasy.
He is a man who is not easily attracted to women who only have beauty. For him, he likes those naturally sweet-scented women.
And this is the reason why until now he is still single.
Although he found some but such women are rare and they would not usually have the beauty he is looking for, along with the body figure and height.
However, right now, right in front of him is the perfect woman in his mind.
While walking, he could not help but clear his throat and asked.
"Miss… Sung Jisoo is your name, right?" he asked.
This caught the two people with him off-guard.
Jisoo nodded her head.
"I'm Alvin… Alvin Yang…" he introduced himself as he handed his business card to her.
Sung Jisoo accepted it but did not say anything.
The walk to Thomas Yang ward was quiet and uneventful.
As soon as Jisoo enters the room, she noticed a group of doctors doing their rounds.
When they enter, the doctors greeted James Yang.
"Mr. Yang… Your father's condition is getting a bit worse… I'm sorry that we cannot do anything for you. Surgery might have an effect, but it also would be dangerous to him… with only 10% success rate…" the middle-aged doctor said.
This middle-aged doctor is the hospital director, Eugene Pan. He personally visited old man Yang today after hearing about his worsening condition.
He also feels helpless after the specialist told them of the current circumstance of the old man.
Right now, there are two things that could happen to him.
Either he dies, or becomes comatose for the rest of his old life.
But for the Yang family, of course, prefer their father and also grandfather to be fine.
"James… What should we do?… Dad… He…" James Yang's wife who suddenly approached on the side is already crying.
Her voice made everyone in the room turn gloomy.
By this time, the doctors noticed a beautiful young woman walking to the side of the bed and then carefully checking the condition of the old man on it.
"Who are you? What are you doing?" suddenly an effeminate young doctor scolded.
When he saw the beauty of the young woman, he felt a bit jealous deep in his heart. Especially when he noticed one of the handsome interns he has his eyes on, showing fascination with his eyes.
His words woke everyone up from their stupor.
This effeminate doctor is an intern doctor named Bernard Da.
He can be considered one of the most promising interns in the hospital.
Top of his class while in medical school, and he has even gained praise from his lecturers and resident doctors for his outstanding performance.
Because of his accomplishments and soon-to-be graduating in his internship, he has that proud aura on him.
Plus he is doing this to attract the attention of someone he has had a crush on for many months now.
He suddenly takes a step forward to grab and drag Jisoo away from the patient's bed.
Sung Jisoo looks at the doctor and then at James Yang.
"I can save your father… but it will depend on your decision…" she suddenly said before Bernard could grab her hand.
The wardroom turned silent as everyone's gaze now landed on James.
He suddenly feels like he is on a hot seat while everyone's gaze bore on him pretty heavily.
"I…"
But before he could say anything… his wife's expression suddenly turned hostile.
"Are you crazy? Who is this woman? Why is she here?" suddenly the expression of Mrs. Yang became that of a jealous wife.
How could she not feel jealousy when the young woman before her is truly beautiful? Plus she was brought here by her husband. Now she feels angry and wronged.
Seeing that her husband is not saying anything, she suddenly wanted to cry.
"Is… Is she your woman?" she suddenly said with a sad tone.
Everyone was flabbergasted by the reaction of Mrs. Yang.
Even James was a bit taken aback by what his wife suddenly said.
"What are you talking about? She was the one whom we called this morning…" he then explained who Sung Jisoo is.
When the rest of the people heard his explanation, they showed complicated expressions on their faces.
"You… you can cure my father-in-law? But then why is he still sick?" asked Mrs. Yang while showing an expression of blaming on her face.
Sung Jisoo suddenly lifted her fair hand and stopped those who wanted to talk.
"I might have cured her… But… you guys did not pay me yet back then. So I just applied for a temporary relief… You are willing to pay the hospital, right? So do you expect me to cure him… for free? Hehe… I'm not that magnanimous though…"
Jisoo folded her arms on her chest which now showed her bulging chest. Most of the male interns in the room could not help but have their eyes glued to her chest area.
The expression of Mrs. Yang this time changes and quickly begged.
"Please… You… Your asking price is 200k credits, right? I will pay… you…" she suddenly said.
This only shows how close Mrs. Yang with her father-in-law. In fact, before falling in love and marrying James, Mrs. Yang grew up treating Thomas like her own biological father as she has none. That is the reason why she is very close to him as a real daughter.
