Chapter 885: There is always a solution to a problem

Night.

City Emergency Center.

It’s Lunar New Year in less than twenty days, and the temperature has dropped. It was cold, especially at night. Dong Xuebing could feel the piercing cold as he got out of his Porsche.

Everything is over.

Dong Xuebing could not answer Qu Yunxuan and her parents.

The single ward is on the third floor. Dong Xuebing could not find Qu Yunxuan in her previous ward. He asked a nurse and was told her condition had stabilized. She was transferred from the ICU ward to a regular ward. The Emergency Center only catered to treating emergency patients and was not responsible for the patients' aftercare. She had to be transferred to another hospital if her condition did not worsen tomorrow. Dong Xuebing was relieved when he heard this. He could use REVERSE on her during her hospital transfer, and she can be discharged in a few days.

Second floor.

Normal ward.

Dong Xuebing found Qu Yunxuan’s ward and was about to go in. He heard people talking inside.

“What do you want?!” Qu Yunxuan’s mother shouted.

“This must be Miss Qu Yunxuan.” A man said in a low voice. He sounded like he was in a bad mood.

“This is my daughter. What do you want?”

“I am Wan Sizhao’s brother, Wan Siguo. I am representing my family to apologize to Miss Qu.”

“We don’t need your apology! Get out!” Qu Yunxuan’s mother shouted.

“Aunty, my brother passed away this afternoon. Let’s forget it.”

“Forget?! That is his karma! Serve him right!”

“How can you say this?! I am talking to you nicely! Stop giving me this attitude!”

“This is how I speak! Apologize?! You all should have done it a long time ago!”

“I had already apologized. Here! This is Miss Qu’s compensation and medical fees.”

Dong Xuebing was puzzled. Wan Siguo? Why did Wan Sizhao’s brother come here to apologize? This should not be possible. He thought for a while and understood what had happened. It must be City Party Secretary Wan who ordered him to apologize. Xu Dabing’s statement confirmed Wan Sizhao tried to rape Qu Yunxuan, and this case was reopened for investigation. That’s why Secretary Wan asked Wan Sizhao’s family member to apologize. Dong Xuebing nodded with satisfaction. This was the right thing to do regardless of the reason, and it saved him the trouble of visiting Wan Sizhao’s family to get them to apologize.

Wan Siguo and Qu Yunxuan’s mother argued for a while.

A few seconds later, Wan Siguo stormed out of the ward.

Dong Xuebing looked at Wan Siguo. He was in his early thirties with a studious look, and his eyes looked angry. He had checked Wan Sizhao’s background and knew he had a brother. This person was also Secretary Wan’s nephew and is currently Fen Zhou City’s Ministry of Education Deputy Chief. He had no authority, and Dong Xuebing knew nothing about him.

“Wan Siguo?” Dong Xuebing looked at him.

Wan Siguo immediately recognized him. “Dong Xuebing?”

Both stared at each other without saying anything, and Wan Siguo walked away. He seemed to be upset over his younger brother’s death.

Dong Xuebing looked at Wan Siguo’s back before entering the ward.

Qu Yunxuan’s mother was still fuming. “These people are too much. It’s too late for an apology now.”

“Xiao Bing is here.” Qu Yunxuan’s father saw Dong Xuebing and nodded.

“Dad, Mum.” Dong Xuebing greeted them and looked at Qu Yunxuan. “Are you feeling better?”

“I am much better.” Qu Yunxuan smiled. “How did Wan Sizhao die? What happened?”

Qu Yunxuan’s mother also asked. “That’s right. Why did Wan Sizhao die suddenly?”

Wan Sizhao died around 1 pm, and they just heard about it.

Dong Xuebing smiled. “You said it earlier. It was karma. Wan Sizhao had done too many evil deeds, and it was time for him to pay the price. Li Taibo and Xu Dabing, who had conspired with him, were also arrested. They will be charged with murder a few days later.” He did not want them to know he did all these.

Qu Yunxuan’s mother clapped. “This is fantastic!”

Qu Yunxuan’s father was relieved. “These people should be punished earlier!”

Qu Yunxuan looked at Dong Xuebing and beckoned him over. “Xiao Bing, come here. I got something to ask you.”

Dong Xuebing went over to the bed. “What is it?”

“Tell me the truth. Do you have anything to do with Wan Sizhao’s death?” Qu Yunxuan looked at Dong Xuebing. “You said leave this matter to you yesterday, and Wan Sizhao died this afternoon. Li Taibo and Xu Dabing were also arrested. How can this be coincidental?”

Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. “Err…. I don’t know.”

Qu Yunxuan looked at him in his eyes. “Tell me the truth. Are you asking for a beating?”

Qu Yunxuan’s parents were shocked and looked at Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing thought to himself. Aunt Xuan knew him too well. He stuttered. “I do have something to do with this incident, but not I am not involved.

Qu Yunxuan gave Dong Xuebing a stare. “Why are you doing this again?! I asked you to leave it to the Police.”

“Sigh…. It would be great if the Police could handle it, but they can’t handle it. So, I offered some help. You are seriously injured in this incident. How can I not be concerned?”

Qu Yunxuan was about to scold Dong Xuebing, and her mother interrupted. “Xiao Bing had done well! These bad guys should be put in place by someone worse than them. They deserve it!”

Dong Xuebing was speechless. Since when did I become a bad guy?

“You had done well.” Qu Yunxuan’s mother patted Dong Xuebing's hand. “We will not bring up your marriage with Xie Huilan, but don’t forget about the five-year agreement. Yunxuan had given birth to your daughter, and I will kill you if you don’t marry her! You must have a conscience. Do you agree?”

Dong Xuebing was sweating. “Yes… yes…. Err…. You said yesterday….”

Qu Yunxuan’s mother feigned ignorance. “What did I say?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Nothing.”

Qu Yunxuan’s mother had said she would allow Qu Yunxuan to be Dong Xuebing’s mistress if he could bring Wan Sizhao down. But she had said it in anger and could not be treated seriously. Of course, Dong Xuebing did not expect her to stick to her words, and having her agree to their five-year agreement was good enough. He would not be scolded by Qu Yunxuan’s parents and his mother again in the future.

Ring… ring… ring…. Dong Xuebing’s phone rang.

Dong Xuebing saw it was Xie Huilan’s number, and he excused himself to the corridor away from the ward to answer.

“Hello, Huilan.”

“What have you done?”

“Nothing….”

“Nothing? Then why did Wan Sizhao fall off the building and Li Taibo arrested?”

“This had nothing to do with me. I….”

“Save your explanation. Do you think I don’t know my husband? Qu Yunxuan was forced to jump out of the window, and Wan Sizhao did the same a few days later. You always like to do the same thing as revenge. Do you think I will believe this has nothing to do with you?”

Dong Xuebing was speechless. How come you all know me so well?

“Was it so obvious?” Dong Xuebing had no choice but to admit it. “I thought I had covered my tracks well.”

Xie Huilan giggled. “You would have covered your tracks well if you did not tell the Police you went out to buy alcohol. Who asked you to speak without thinking and tried to show off?”

Dong Xuebing argued. “What show off? I was trying to spite them!”

“I told you many times to wait for me. You never listen.”

“Yunxuan almost died, and it was a miracle that I had waited for one day. I can’t wait anymore.”

“You are always so rash. You saved me on impulse during the time bomb incident in Yan Tai County. If you were not rash, we would not be husband and wife now. Haha…. There are two sides to everything. Alright. You had done well, and I don’t need to rush back.”

Dong Xuebing smiled. “There’s no rush. Just come back after you finish your work. Everything is fine here.”

Xie Huilan laughed. “You don’t want me to be back because of Yunxuan.”

Dong Xuebing quickly explained. “What are you saying? I am concerned about your work and want you to return earlier. I miss you badly.”

“Haha…. Are you telling the truth?”

“Of course.”

“Not bad. Kiss me.”

Dong Xuebing kissed his phone. “Ok?”

“Haha…. I am hanging up. Bye.”

After hanging up the call with Xie Huilan, Dong Xuebing noticed something. Most people would not know he was behind this incident, but intelligent people would suspect he was involved. They would not think he had killed Wan Sizhao because of the evidence, but they know he played a critical role in it. Wan Sizhao’s death might create more problems for him.

Secretary Wan, Wan Sizhao’s family, and the people who had dealings with Wan Sizhao should hate Dong Xuebing now.

However, Dong Xuebing did not care.

There is always a solution to a problem.
