Chapter 47: Farewell to Lu Yunqi

Seeing Ye Tian daring to retort, Director Lu snorted coldly:

"Mrs. Lin's matter will be dealt with later. But for now, shouldn't you be leaving?"

"What if I don't?" Ye Tian clenched his fists, staring at Director Lu and asking word by word.

Initially, most of Ye Tian's resentment was towards Mrs. Lin, and he was merely dissatisfied with Director Lu. However, the director's actions gradually stoked his anger.

Ye Tian could have paid the hospital fees when Director Lu first assumed he couldn't afford them. After all, the director was just a medical head and couldn't possibly kick out a patient who had paid in full.

But Ye Tian couldn't swallow this insult, and he didn't trust Director Lu either, fearing that he might seek revenge against Ye Xi under the guise of his position.

Director Lu's behavior now confirmed he was capable of such acts. After all, in his eyes, Ye Tian was just a poor man who couldn't afford hospital fees. Before obtaining the Dog Food System, if he had been kicked out of the hospital, Ye Tian wouldn't have had the time or means to arrange treatment at another hospital, putting both siblings' lives at risk.

Determined to teach him a lesson for threatening his sister, Ye Tian's hand reached for a golden card in his pocket.

A special item, 'I Am Your Daddy', Ye Tian was at his wits' end, ready to use this card.

Despite the numerous special items that appeared in the draws, it didn't mean they were easy to obtain. The thousand-point Dog Food draw was lucky due to the presence of 'Fortune's Favor' and it being his first such draw. The combination of these factors resulted in many special items.

In reality, from obtaining the Super Dog Food System until now, Ye Tian had only won two special items from dozens of draws, which was extremely fortunate.

For instance, in a hundred-point draw, among ten options, nine would be within the draw's range, with a negligible chance for an item like 'Fortune's Favor'. Among the remaining options, there would be higher-tier items like '

Life-Extending Pills', exceeding the value of the draw. Only a few such draws would contain special items.

Moreover, not all special items were valuable. Items like Doraemon's Memory Bread, dyes from games, and various minor characters also fell under the special category.

The card's name might be awkward, but its effect was undoubtedly powerful. Even under 'Fortune's Favor', it was rare to draw such a potent item.

This item had limitations; it could only be used on those whose strength did not surpass Ye Tian's. But for Ye Tian, this was enough. Ancient martial artists were a minority in this world, and power did not equate to authority. If Ye Tian wished, he could even use it on the President of the United States.

Of course, Ye Tian had no plans to immigrate, and even the powerful President couldn't reach into the Daxia Empire. This illustrated the card's value.

Ye Tian was about to use the card, indicative of his extreme anger.

"Xiao Zhang, call security to refund their remaining hospital fees and kick them out!" Director Lu, intimidated by Ye Tian's fierce gaze, ordered a nurse peeking outside the door.

"Ah..." The nurse, surprised by the director's command, looked involuntarily across the door as if someone was standing there.

"What are you looking at? Didn't you hear me tell you to find security?" Director Lu snapped when the nurse didn't move.

The nurse, still motionless, stammered, "Director Lu... it might not be right to kick them out like this, this is a hospital, and Ye Xi's illness..."

Before she could finish, Director Lu impatiently interrupted her, shouting, "Shut up and go do it! They're causing trouble in the hospital. It serves them right to be kicked out. Don't forget who's in charge here!"

"Director Lu, since when did you become the Dean?" Just as Director Lu scolded the nurse and Ye Tian was about to use the card, a familiar, crisp voice reached his ears.

Then, a girl about Ye Tian's age walked in from behind the door, apparently having been standing outside all

 along.

It was her!

Seeing the girl, Ye Tian was slightly surprised. She was Lu Yunqi, Su Mei's close friend whom he had recently met at Su Mei's house.

Expecting someone formidable to support Ye Tian, Mrs. Lin was dismissive upon seeing just a young girl:

"Who's this little girl? You think you can meddle in hospital affairs? Director Lu might not be the Dean, but his word is law here..."

"Shut up!" Mrs. Lin's words were abruptly cut off by a loud roar, leaving her stunned and turning to Director Lu, who looked terrified:

"Director Lu, what is this about?"

"Lu... Miss Lu... How come you're here?"

Director Lu's forehead was sweating profusely, his voice trembling with panic as he looked at Lu Yunqi.

"If I hadn't come, you would have been throwing your weight around even at my father's expense! Is this how you treat patients in our hospital?"

Lu Yunqi didn't spare him any face, questioning sharply without giving him a chance to respond, then coldly said, "I've recorded everything on my phone. I'll explain it to my father when he returns. You can leave now. Our hospital is too small to accommodate someone as 'great' as you."

"Miss Lu, you can't do this. I was just looking out for the hospital. They can't pay their hospital fees, and I feared they'd refuse to leave," Director Lu explained in a panic.

"Can't pay?" Lu Yunqi looked at Ye Tian and laughed disdainfully: "How do you know they can't pay? What if they can?"

Director Lu's words were completely unbelievable to her. Although she had a bad impression of Ye Tian, thinking him a swindler or a gold-digger due to Su Mei, she didn't believe he couldn't afford hospital fees.

"Absolutely they can't pay. These poor wretches, if they could have paid, they would have done so instead of causing a scene here! If they can show the money, I'll resign immediately."

Director Lu, feeling cornered and about to be dismissed, clung to this as a lifeline.

However, he failed to notice the smirk forming at the corner of Ye Tian's mouth.
