Chapter 817 [Bonus chapter] Not So Important
Song Xin'ai thought a lot before she decided to visit the hospital. She knew she had no right to appear before Raelle but she still wanted to check up on her. She at least wanted to see her with her own eyes. Even if she learned from Xiang Hulin that Raelle was fine, she wanted to come and see Raelle once."Dr. Song?"
Song Xin'ai turned around and faced Gong Qiubai, also known as Mrs. Gu. "Oh, it's you."
"What? You are at the hospital I work at and you're surprised to see me here?" asked Mrs. Gu.
Song Xin'ai had a look of realization, "It must have slipped my mind."
"That isn't surprising," said Gong Qiubai. "You've always been cut off from the world because of your work. So, it's normal that you forgot where I work. But what are you doing here? Are you sick?"
Song Xin'ai pursed her lips and didn't reply.
Gong Qiubai thought of something and asked, "You're here for those patients of the Xiang family, right?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSong Xin'ai nodded her head, "Yes. Do you know where I can find them?"
"Which one are you looking for?" asked Gong Qiubai. "One patient's name is Raelle Xiang and the other is Tang Hebe who was brought with her."
Song Xin'ai hesitated for a long while before saying, "I'm looking for Tang Hebe."
Gong Qiubai raised her brows at Song Xin'ai, "Jie, you're not looking for Raelle Xiang? I thought you are here for her. After all, she is the one from the Xiang family."
"I'll see her later," replied Song Xin'ai. "But she might not want to see me. So, I'll first check up on Tang Hebe."
"Oh, okay," replied Gong Qiubai. "Then you come with me, I'll take you to her ward."
"You can tell me where it is, I don't want to take your time," said Song Xin'ai.
"I'm on break for a while," said Gong Qiubai. "And it's rare to see you. I'll just use this time to chat with you." She started walking towards the elevator saying, "Then follow me."
Song Xin'ai silently followed behind her and entered the elevator with her. Gong Qiubai observed Song Xin'ai for a while before telling her, "I met Mu Chenyan the other day. Only then did I learn that someone from the Xiang family was admitted to our hospital. Also, I learned that our Dean is actually Mu Chenyan's Uncle."
Song Xin'ai frowned and asked, "The Dean is Professor Gou Danhong?"
"Yes," replied Gong Qiubai.
Song Xin'ai nodded her head, "Yes, he is Mu Chenyan's maternal uncle. In fact, Mu Chenyan has shares in all of the Gou family's hospitals and medical research centers. So, not only is she the shareholder of this hospital, Mu Chenyan can be considered a top giant in the medical field."
"The Gou family doesn't dominate the medical field of our country," replied Gong Qiubai.
"But Mu Chenyan also has Mu family," reminded Song Xin'ai. "I feel like you know very little about Mu Chenyan. Don't ever underestimate her."
"Who is underestimating her?" retorted Gong Qiubai. "But you're right. It seems I never really knew who Mu Chenyan is." She took a pause and added, "I thought she would beat me up."
Song Xin'ai chuckled, "If she wanted to beat you up, she'd have done it years ago. She isn't someone who'd wait for so long to take her revenge. Although people say revenge is the dish best served cold, she doesn't believe that. She even likes her noodles piping hot, how can she have the patience to eat the cold dish of revenge? If she really wanted to beat you up, she'd have done it when you took her place."

"When I got together with her brother, she can be considered a kid," said Song Xin'ai. "I watched her grow up. She is very impulsive. She is very violent. There is no such thing as empathy in her. But at the same time, you can't find the kindest person than her. She is a conflicted personality. She is very straightforward but she can still confuse you."
Gong Qiubai sighed, "She is very happy in her life."
"What did you think? She'd be sad because of what you did? Her life would be destroyed and she'll fall from her throne just because of your little trick?" retorted Song Xin'ai. She sneered, "She is Mu Chenyan. Even when she was young, she didn't like to be called a princess. She said she was the Queen and she proved it all her life. So, whatever you do, you can never take her off of her throne. She was meant to wear her crown. She was meant to shine. The biggest mistake you've done was being jealous of someone like her. You could never even touch her."
"Jie, you're insulting me," said Gong Qiubai.
"I'm stating facts," replied Song Xin'ai. "Even you know in your heart that you did a mistake by messing with her."
Gong Qiubai looked sad, "What can I do? I was young and impulsive. I didn't think about it clearly. I was jealous. I just wanted to take Gu Ye's attention but he always looked at Mu Chenyan. I got mad and did something reckless. But I did apologize to her. She..."
"She doesn't care," Song Xin'ai finished her sentence for her. "Mu Chenyan had been a nonchalant person in her life. Apart from her family, there are hardly any people who can make her sad. If it was her dearest Ge who stood against her instead of Gu Ye, she might have broken down. But it's a pity that Gu Ye could never be Xiang Hulin and he could never take that place as well. You thought too highly of your husband, Mu Chenyan didn't put him at such an important place in her life. Not then, not now and it'll never be."
"Wow, now, you're even attacking my husband," said Gong Qiubai. "Anyways we are here."
