41: Chapter 41 Shura Field

Municipal Hospital, neurosurgery nurse station.

Two nurses were looking down, checking a case file. One of them, standing on the outside of the counter, wearing a nurse's uniform with a delicate and pretty face, was Su Qingxue.

Suddenly, the rapid clicking of high heels approached from afar.

Su Qingxue turned slightly and saw a super beauty with exquisite makeup and a capable aura, followed by a slightly chubby, anxious-looking young man rushing over.

It was Tang Man and Yu Yi.

"Excuse me, which ward is Mr. Lin in?" Tang Man asked urgently, her eyes full of worry.

The other nurse looked up and asked according to procedure: "Who are you to him?"

"Family." Tang Man blurted out.

The nurse clicked a few times on the computer and pointed to the end of the corridor: "Special care ward, bed 88, just walk that way."

"Thank you!"

Tang Man thanked her and rushed toward the special care ward.

Su Qingxue's heart jumped violently. Lin Yu? This name... how could it be such a coincidence?

An inexplicable panic instantly gripped her. Ignoring her colleague calling her from behind, her footsteps followed uncontrollably.

The nurse looked at her retreating back and muttered suspiciously: "What's wrong with these people? They're all in such a rush..."

Just as she was about to turn into the pharmacy room, she was called again.

"Comrade Nurse, may I ask which bed Mr. Lin is in?"

The nurse turned around and saw a man in an administrative jacket.

"Who are you to him?"

The man showed his credentials and said: "A friend."

The nurse's expression immediately became serious. It was a government work ID.

"Bed 88, special care ward."

"Thank you."

The man nodded slightly and turned to leave.

Inside the ward.

The driver who caused the accident was still apologizing. Director Chu Yao stood to the side, quietly accompanying Lin Yu.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open violently.

Tang Man rushed in and saw Lin Yu on the hospital bed, wrapped in bandages, covered in bruises, with an IV drip in his hand. Her eyes instantly turned red, and tears fell uncontrollably.

"Boss..." She choked, about to throw herself on Lin Yu, but immediately stopped, fearing she would hurt him, and instead grabbed his other hand: "Why didn't you tell me when such a big thing happened... You scared me to death..."

"I'm fine, aren't I? I didn't want you all to worry."

Yu Yi followed closely behind, his eyes also red. But the bedside was already occupied by Director Chu Yao and Tang Man, so he didn't squeeze in. His attention immediately shifted to the driver who caused the accident.

Yu Yi turned his head sharply, his eyes fierce, staring at the couple, his voice suppressing anger: "Was it you who hit my brother?"

He clenched his fists, veins bulging, looking like he was about to make a move.

"Yu Yi, stop!" Lin Yu immediately stopped him sternly. While patting Tang Man's back to comfort her, he said in a deep voice: "It was an accident. He didn't do it on purpose, and he cooperated actively afterward. Let it go."

The driver and his wife were pale with fear and didn't dare to say a word.

Tang Man only then noticed Director Chu Yao standing nearby. She hurriedly restrained her lack of composure and squeezed out a greeting: "Director Chu Yao."

Director Chu Yao nodded slightly in response.

Just then, another beautiful figure rushed into the ward and stopped.

Su Qingxue stood at the door, and when she saw the familiar face on the hospital bed, she froze.

It really was him. He was actually here, and he was injured.

Tears burst forth instantly.

"Lin Yu..." Su Qingxue choked and rushed to the bedside. Director Chu Yao and Tang Man subconsciously made room.

Lin Yu: "..."

He awkwardly held Su Qingxue's hand back: "Why are you here?" He scanned the room. Tang Man on the left, Director Chu Yao on the right, Su Qingxue in front.

"I was at work. What happened to you? Are you okay?" Su Qingxue asked with concern.

"Just a small car accident, a mild concussion, I'll be discharged in three to five days."

Su Qingxue was slightly relieved, looking at Lin Yu carefully, feeling very distressed.

Yu Yi and the couple who caused the accident were stunned, looking at each other, as if confirming some suspicions.

Lin Yu braced himself, soothing the two crying women, his temples throbbing.

Just as the atmosphere became extremely awkward, the door was knocked again. This time, the knock was steady and measured.

Director Chu Yao and Su Qingxue hurriedly stepped aside to collect their emotions.

Tang Man saw who it was, her expression straightened, and she quickly stepped forward, whispering to Lin Yu: "Boss, it's Vice Mayor Wang, and his secretary."

Lin Yu was stunned.

The Deputy Mayor actually followed him to the hospital.

Vice Mayor Wang was in formal attire with a steady demeanor. The secretary, wearing an administrative jacket, followed behind, holding an exquisite flower basket.

"Mr. Lin, I heard you had an accident, so I came to see you." The Deputy Mayor's gaze fell on Lin Yu with concern.

"Vice Mayor Wang, why did you come in person?" Lin Yu tried to sit up, but was pressed down by the Deputy Mayor: "Don't move, just rest."

"I didn't go to greet you, but instead made you come here. I am truly sorry!" Lin Yu said.

The Deputy Mayor waved his hand and smiled: "Work is important, but your health is more important. I just came to check on the situation, and by the way, bring you the planning permit."

The secretary stepped forward to hand over the documents and the flower basket, and Lin Yu asked Director Chu Yao to take them.

The Deputy Mayor casually asked about his condition and the accident. After hearing it, his expression sank slightly, and his gaze swept to the trembling couple in the corner, his tone serious: "Causing an accident while driving in broad daylight, treating human life as a joke? This must be handled seriously!"

The driver and his wife were so scared their legs went weak. The man hurriedly stepped forward, his voice trembling: "Mayor, Comrade Mayor, I really didn't do it on purpose... I called the police and an ambulance immediately afterward, and have been actively cooperating, never trying to escape..."

The woman also bowed repeatedly to apologize, tears streaming down her face.

Seeing this, Lin Yu smoothed things over: "Vice Mayor Wang, it was indeed an accident, and their attitude is very good. Let's just leave it at that. I'm not seriously hurt."

The Deputy Mayor looked at Lin Yu, and seeing that he had no intention of pursuing it, he nodded: "Since Mr. Lin has spoken, we will let it pass this time. Be sure to be careful when driving in the future; such incidents must not happen again."

"Yes, yes! Definitely!" The couple felt like they had been granted amnesty and thanked him repeatedly.

Just then, the department director and the attending physician also arrived.

The Deputy Mayor immediately ordered the hospital: "Mr. Lin is the head of a key enterprise in our city, a young entrepreneur who has made huge contributions to urban construction. His health is of the utmost importance. You must use the best medicine, the best equipment, and the best ward to ensure Mr. Lin's recovery. Everything must be up to the highest standard!"

The director and attending physician nodded repeatedly: "Please rest assured, Mayor! We will go all out!"

The Deputy Mayor looked at the crowded ward and decided not to disturb him further, so he got up to say goodbye: "Mr. Lin, please rest well. Work is not urgent; we can talk when you recover. I won't disturb you further."

"Thank you for your concern, Mayor." Lin Yu nodded his thanks.

After seeing the Deputy Mayor off, the director turned back and said enthusiastically to Lin Yu: "Mr. Lin, we have a luxury single suite on the top floor, with a better environment and more quiet. Shall I arrange for you to move wards now?"

Lin Yu politely declined: "No need for the trouble. This room is very good, and it's a single room. Besides, I won't be staying for many days, so let's not go through the trouble."

Seeing his insistence, the director stopped forcing him: "Alright, we will go back and organize another expert consultation to ensure nothing goes wrong."

"Okay, thank you!"

After the director and the attending physician left, the driver and his wife thanked him again and apologized repeatedly. Lin Yu comforted them a few times and let them go.

Once out of the ward, the man patted his chest, still terrified, and said to his wife: "Wife, it's a good thing we listened to you and came to apologize. This Mr. Lin is a big shot we can't afford to offend... Even the Deputy Mayor came to visit in person. We really saved our lives."

Inside the ward.

It was suddenly eerily quiet.

Lin Yu lay on the bed.

Director Chu Yao, Tang Man, and Su Qingxue stood by the bed.

Yu Yi shrank into the corner, secretly observing this strange and subtle situation. He had a headache, looking at this one, then that one, praying crazily for Lin Yu in his heart: Guanyin Bodhisattva, Golden Horn King, Silver Horn King.

This is a damn Shura field! Old Lin is in big trouble this time! Yu Yi's eyes darted around. There was really no way, so he might as well slip away. He gave a dry laugh: "Well... I'm going out for a smoke. You guys chat, you guys chat!"

Before he finished speaking, he had already slipped out of the ward, afraid of being dragged into this storm.

Lin Yu was panicked inside, but on the surface, he was as steady as an old dog. He calmly patted the empty space by the bed: "Why are you all standing? Come and sit."

The three women looked at each other. The atmosphere was subtle, but they followed his words and sat down on both sides of the hospital bed.

Lin Yu raised the hand without the IV drip, first gently touching Director Chu Yao's cheek; then he held Tang Man's hand and patted it to comfort her; finally, he raised his hand and rubbed Su Qingxue's hair.

His movements were natural, and his sense of proportion was just right, as if he had practiced it countless times. Then he said gently: "You heard the director just now. I'm fine, just some skin trauma and a mild concussion. I'll be discharged in two days." Lin Yu said calmly, "You all have your own things to do, so you don't all have to stay here, so as not to delay your work. I know that whoever I ask to leave now won't be happy about it."

He paused and threw out a solution: "How about this, we take turns taking care of me. Either a twelve-hour shift or a one-day shift, how about that?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Yi poked his head in sneakily: "What about me!"

Lin Yu said angrily: "You are responsible for running errands, buying food, getting things, and driving. All the miscellaneous tasks are yours."

Yu Yi's eyes lit up: "Got it!"

Tang Man took a deep breath, looked at Director Chu Yao, then at Su Qingxue, and took the initiative to reach out, grabbing one hand of each: "Let's go out and discuss the shift schedule. Don't disturb his rest."

Director Chu Yao and Su Qingxue looked at each other, neither refused, and followed Tang Man out of the ward.

Yu Yi immediately leaned over to the bed, gave Lin Yu a thumbs up, his eyes full of admiration: "Brother, you are my own brother! Three goddesses are clearly controlled by you! I want to be an apprentice! Please teach me your unique skills!"

Lin Yu rolled his eyes at him: "Less nonsense, get out of here."

Yu Yi chuckled and obediently retreated to the side.

After a while, the three women walked in, having reached a consensus.

Tang Man spoke: "We have agreed. From 8 am to 8 pm, Director Chu Yao, me, and Su Qingxue, in this order, we will take turns on duty."

Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, they didn't fight. Hearing them address each other, their relationship seemed even closer. Tang Man is capable.

"Then you two go back to work first." Lin Yu looked at Tang Man and Su Qingxue, "The company can't be without people. Director Chu Yao will watch here first. You can come over after work."

Tang Man and Su Qingxue also knew that they had snuck out, so it was inconvenient to stay long. They gave a few more instructions before leaving reluctantly.

Lin Yu suddenly remembered something and said to Yu Yi: "By the way, my Cullinan is still parked at the old residential area. Go and help me drive it back. You can drive it while running errands these two days."

Yu Yi's eyes widened instantly, with an expression of being so happy he was about to faint: "Cul... Cullinan?! Brother, don't worry! I will be more careful than protecting my wife! I guarantee it will be unscathed!"

He took the car keys, his hands shaking with excitement, and ran away in a flash.

Before leaving, Lin Yu specifically instructed: "Don't tell my family, lest they worry."

"Understood!"

The ward door closed.

Instantly, the whole room was left with only Lin Yu and Director Chu Yao.

The sunlight fell quietly on the floor, and the air was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant.

Lin Yu leaned on the head of the bed, watching Director Chu Yao, who was lowering her head to peel an apple. Her fingers were slender and fair, and her movements holding the fruit knife were amazingly steady. Circles of golden apple peel fell continuously, the width exactly the same, as if cut by precision instruments.

Lin Yu's Adam's apple rolled, and he swallowed.

These hands were too steady. He recalled the scene of Director Chu Yao holding a scalpel. Would she one day cut him with one knife because of jealousy or love turned into hate... It was terrifying to think about!

Since the system was bound, he had relied on the beauties around him to get cash rebates, earning a lot of money, and his attributes had also strengthened his physique, otherwise he could not have just had a mild concussion in this car accident. He went from a penniless poor boy to having such achievements in a short time. Luxury cars, luxury houses, business achievements, status that countless people look up to... All of this was brought by the system, and this is just the beginning.

But this secret, he could never tell in his life. Once exposed, let alone these confidantes around him, even his own family would not survive.

Slowly, there were more and more beauties around him, all of them top-notch, Director Chu Yao, Tang Man, Su Qingxue... Each of them was deeply in love with him. After a long time, even if they trusted him, it was inevitable that they would have doubts—why was he never short of excellent women around him? Why could he rise so defyingly against the sky, faster than common sense?

This required an explanation. He had to give them a reason to follow him wholeheartedly and willingly, lest he burn himself or set his backyard on fire.
