Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Not a Single Truth All Day.
Bai Xiao had just started work when an additional person appeared in the outpatient clinic.
Upon closer examination, it was a young man, youthful and confident, who, judging from his complexion and overall appearance, did not seem like a patient.
The visitor sat in front of her desk, his eyes showing eagerness.
Suddenly, Bai Xiao realized who he was, someone from the Yu Family!
"Are you Bai Xiao?"
"I am!"
Bai Xiao had always tried to avoid the Yu Family, not wanting any deeper contact.
What did the Yu Family’s grudges have to do with her?
Children cannot choose their parents, but now, with Yu Shaoya gone, she had the right to choose the life she wanted to live.
It would be better if these so-called relatives and friends appeared less frequently.
"I am Yu Heng, if we are to speak in terms of seniority, I am your elder brother, you are the child of my second aunt." Yu Heng was straightforward, stating their relationship openly without any concealment.
Next to her, Li Xiangqian perked up his ears. He did not recognize the man Bai Xiao was talking to, but he knew him; this was the son of their Dean.
How come the Dean’s son was claiming to be Doctor Bai’s elder brother?
Could it be that Doctor Bai had some hidden background?
If that was the case, then Doctor Bai was really keeping a low profile.
No wonder her medical skills, though not entirely up to par, were still able to land her in their department. It was true, having connections made things easier.
"So what?"
"I came here today hoping you would meet our grandparents this afternoon," Yu Heng didn’t beat around the bush, looking at Bai Xiao with a sense of closeness, perhaps unable to hide the kinship he felt after learning of her identity, "The family already knows about your relationship with your second aunt, the grandparents, and other uncles and aunts are on their way; they want to see you..."
"What does that have to do with me, your grandparents and your relatives? It seems the Dean didn’t make it clear to you from the start, I am a person of the Bai Family, I have my own brothers and sisters, and they all cherish me. So don’t come disturbing others’ lives so easily." She lifted her head to meet Yu Heng’s gaze.
"Bai Xiao, listen to me, there’s a lot of suffering involved in this, there are grievances from the older generation... Listen to me, the grandparents have always loved your second aunt, even though she did many wrongs to the family.
Misunderstandings led to the unfortunate events of the past, none of us knew of your existence, otherwise, with my father’s and grandparents’ temperaments, they would never have let you be left alone outside; it was an accident," Yu Heng explained eagerly, his father was waiting for news on the other side, having instructed him emphatically to persuade her to come.
Bai Xiao called out to the patients outside, "Next!"
Yu Heng could only stand up and leave without having received such treatment before, which left him feeling somewhat embarrassed.
He had no choice but to take his leave, Bai Xiao did not see him out, leaving Yu Heng with an unpleasant taste in his mouth, but before he left, he looked back at Bai Xiao, who, however, turned her head away, clearly unchanged in her decision.
He had thought this matter would be an easy one, not expecting that she would completely refuse any association with their family.
Seeing Yu Heng exit, and with the patient not yet arrived, Li Xiangqian asked Bai Xiao in a low voice, "What’s your relationship with the Dean?"
Bai Xiao shrugged, "A superior-subordinate relationship, of course. What else could it be? You’re not suggesting something inappropriate between me and the Dean, are you?" She teased Li Xiangqian with his curious mind.
Li Xiangqian gave her a look, "A dog can’t spit out ivory; you never say a true word."
