Chapter 20 - Moral Bottom Line

Although Bai Qihan managed to survive, he was also crippled for life. All these years, he had never given up on himself despite his disability. The mockery around him only made him stronger and cherish his life even more. It was his parents who had exchanged their lives for his. He despised all those who ignored belittled life.

Therefore, after everything that happened with the original Luo Yun, he did not want to care about anything else and asked for a divorce.

"After his parents passed away, the young master had been receiving psychological guidance. He had been physically and mentally crippled and had a very difficult time. Fortunately, his willpower was strong, so he persevered. In the past few years, he had become increasingly influential in the business world." The butler handed a stack of documents to Luo Yun. "The diagnoses and follow-up rehabilitation plans are all here."

"Thank you." Luo Yun took the files and flipped through them. Just as she had expected, the car accident had resulted in severe nerve damage and rendered him permanently disabled. He had been diagnosed to never be able to stand up again. However, Luo Yun knew that this world's medical standards were different from her world. In her world, there was a neurosurgery team led by her master, Li Shi, who had done research in this area and had even succeeded!

She looked at the words on the document and his past. Her heart ached for Bai Qihan, and she felt that she had been cruel to him. In her world, he had a chance to stand up. She slowly raised her head from the documents and let out a long sigh. "I want to know more about his attending doctor. I want to talk to him. Can I?"

"The attending doctor is not here at the moment, and he does not have much spare time. He is currently deployed in a medical team in Africa. At the moment, he can only provide the young master with some guidance on recovering, but other than that, there really isn't much else that can be done…" More than one doctor had already concluded that Bai Qihan's leg could not recover, so they did not ask the attending doctor to stay. "But the psychiatrist will come to the house tomorrow to help the young master."

"Then I'll make some preparations tomorrow and wait for the psychiatrist to come over." Luo Yun said gently, "I've been reading books on psychology recently. I hope that I can help Bai Qihan even a little bit."

The butler looked at her, not knowing what to say.

In the afternoon, Luo Yun bought a batch of professional medical books online and communicated with Lawyer Xu about the matters regarding the Luo family. Because Bai Qihan had informed him in advance, the other party's attitude was very good. Unknowingly, time had quickly passed, and it was already past seven in the evening. Seeing that dinner was ready, she asked, "When my husband left this afternoon, did he say that he would be back tonight?"

"Sir did not say."

Luo Yun nodded and called Bai Qihan.

In the White Dragon Group, Bai Qihan was still in the meeting. The others were already starving, but they did not dare to show it. After all, everyone knew that their boss was a tireless workaholic.

The projector was connected to Bai Qihan's phone. After he finished reading a page, he raised his hand and signaled his assistant to switch to the next page.

At this moment, the screen suddenly darkened as a call had come in.

The assistant habitually clicked on the right, causing the call to go through.

A crisp and sweet female voice sounded in the conference room. "Hubby, what time are you coming back? I'll wait for you so that we can eat together."

Everyone, who was originally starving and dispirited, instantly sat up straight with different expressions on their faces.

Only the assistant was scared silly. He wanted to throw the phone away, but he did not dare to. He could only brace himself and look at Bai Qihan with a face expressing a sense of despair of likely being fired the next day.

Bai Qihan furrowed his brows and gestured for his assistant to pass the phone to him.

"Hello, hubby? Can you hear me?" Since there was no response from the other end of the phone, Luo Yun asked again.

Bai Qihan took the phone and looked at the executives with different expressions. He slowly said, "Yes, I just finished a meeting. Give me a moment."

"Why do you still have a meeting at such a late hour? You really are working hard. Alright then, I'll wait for you anyway. Be careful on the road…" Luo Yun's heart ached a little. In her opinion, Bai Qihan was still a patient. She felt that the company was simply too inhumane for it to be holding a meeting so late into the night.

Everyone heard the crisp voice of a young woman and raised their heads. They stared at Bai Qihan's face without regard for any possible consequences. Bai Qihan's lips seemed to curl up slightly, and then he replied, "Mm."

After hanging up, Bai Qihan said, "It's getting late. Meeting dismissed." With that, he pushed his wheelchair out and left.

After Bai Qihan left, the meeting room exploded. The person in charge of the workplace center, Marvin, immediately stood up from his chair. "When did our boss get married? Why don't we seem to have ever gotten new of it?"

Usually, as long as there was any news about Bai Qihan, they would be the first to know because they had to handle his publicity and public relations.

"No one knows. However, that voice earlier sounded a little young. It doesn't seem to come from an adult. Could they be someone who has just come of age…"

"That can't be. Although the boss is a bit of a workaholic, he still has a moral bottom line…"
