Qin Liuxi and Hospital Director Ou were both invited by Lin Xiang to another room for a talk.
Upon assessing the situation, Hospital Director Ou knew something was amiss. Based on his years of medical experience, he was certain that Lin Xiang intended to 'put him on the spot'.
Indeed, he went right ahead and inquired about how long Madam Lin could hold on.
With a forced smile, Hospital Director Ou thought of resorting to the vague responses he had used in the past, but Lin Xiang interjected, "The Junior Temple Master said that my mother could possibly live to a ripe old age."
Hospital Director Ou: "!"
He looked at Qin Liuxi with an astonished expression. Really?
Qin Liuxi sipped her tea, worthy indeed of the Prime Minister Mansion, such fine tea leaves. The tea was clear, quenching, and had a lingering sweetness. Noticing Hospital Director Ou's gaze, she looked back at him.
