The nurse knew who Qi Liya was, but had referred to her with her bed number in accordance with the hospital’s special privacy protection measures for celebrities. “Ms. Qi, your medical report is out. We would like to ask someone from your family to go over it with the doctor.”

Xu Xiyan asked, “Ms. Qi, is no one from your family around?”

“Xiao Ke looks after me, but she had other things to attend to this afternoon.”Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com

A wounded look passed over Qi Liya’s face, but it was gone before anyone could catch it. She’d had a falling out with her family several years ago, when she had insisted on going to Peijing with Peng Sicheng to further her career, and had not been in contact with her family ever since.

Her assistant, Xiao Ke, was the only one who genuinely cared about her well-being now.

Since there were no family members around, Xu Xiyan decided it was time for her to step up to the plate. She volunteered herself.

“How about this then—I’ll stand in for your family today, and get the report for you. How’s that? Do I have the honor?”

“Thank you, Jing Xi.”

Qi Liya’s heart overflowed with warmth; she had not felt this in a long, long time. She was grateful to Jing Xi for being such a good and sincere friend.

“Everything will be all right. Why don’t you take a nap, Ms. Qi? I’ll be right back.”

Xu Xiyan gave her a small, reassuring smile before following the nurse out the room.

Xu Xiyan walked out of the doctor’s office with a heavy heart. She felt nauseous. The medical report in her hands seemed to burn her like a hot potato.

She thought despairingly: What should I do? How do I break the bad news to Qi Liya?

Back in the doctor’s office, the doctor, whose surname was Xia, exchanged a look with the nurse after Xu Xiyan left.

The nurse asked doubtfully, “Dr. Xia, are you sure about this? What if the hospital finds out?”

“I’ll take responsibility if anything goes wrong. What are you afraid of?”

Dr. Xia removed his mask and took a sip of his tea.

The look on the doctor’s face was one of complete disinterest. To him, fabricating a patient’s medical report was a trivial, insignificant matter.

“But that’s Qi Liya, the superstar...”

The nurse was a gentle soul. She was a fan of Qi Liya, and enjoyed watching her shows.

But now her idol had been admitted to the hospital, and instead of helping her, her supervisor was forcing her to deceive the actress and rob her of her future as a mother. The nurse did not have the heart to do it.

“So what if she’s a superstar? Big deal! There are only two kinds of people in a hospital: the sick, and the healthy.”

It was a huge risk, but Dr. Xia was willing to take it because he would be handsomely compensated for it.

“But Ms. Qi doesn’t have uterine cancer. Removing her uterus when there’s nothing wrong with it... isn’t that going too far?”
