Chapter 565: Leave It to Me
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Sure enough, it didn’t take half a day for many well-trained individuals to appear near the hospital. Although they were all disguised, the mercenaries who had spent years abroad were still quite different from ordinary people in Hua Country. Especially on the floor of Gu Chen’s ward, people came to check every few minutes. The number of Gu Chen’s bodyguards had doubled, but everyone was on edge.
Song Fan was also on high alert in the hospital. She knew that the upcoming events would be tricky. Seeing her so tense, Gu Chen chuckled, “So nervous? Haven’t you experienced gunfire and bullets? Afraid of this?”
Song Fan glared at him, “Given your current frail state, I can’t afford to let you get hurt even a bit. What if you blame me later?”
She was indeed nervous. She had already received information that the Brown Family had deployed many people. Gu Chen held her hand, “Don’t worry. My people aren’t pushovers, and besides, you are here too.”
Just as Song Fan was about to say that even she might not be able to handle the situation, the door to the ward was knocked. A bodyguard rushed in, “President Gu, someone has hacked into the hospital’s computer to steal your medical records, and part of it has already been taken.”
Before Gu Chen could say anything, Song Fan had already opened her laptop and hacked into the hospital system. Her fingers flew over the keyboard, and she quickly found the intruder’s IP address.
“The address is traced. They used an overseas server, but it’s near Charlie’s hotel. It seems he doesn’t trust you either.”
“I optimized the system; even if they hack in, they will only get fake records. But the paper records…” She turned to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard immediately understood, “I have asked the doctor to bring them over; they will be in the ward shortly.”
Song Fan nodded, feeling a bit relieved. However, seeing more and more people outside the hospital, she was still worried, “Gu Chen, I’ll go check if my people have arrived. Don’t go out.”
Since Gu Chen no longer needed medication, she believed that with so many people protecting him, he should be safe in the hospital. With so many people probing around the hospital, someone was likely planning a major move.
Song Fan thought her arrangements were flawless, but she didn’t expect Peter to be driven to desperation. Before she could arrange her people for covert protection, Gu Chen called, “A rat has slipped in, come back.”
Song Fan hurried to the ward and found it in chaos, with two men held by bodyguards. She walked over and lifted one man’s head, his face battered and bruised, but she still recognized him as one of Peter’s men.
“Are you Peter’s man?”
The man instinctively wanted to shake his head, but Song Fan grabbed his hair harshly, “Don’t lie to me!”
Thinking of Gu Chen’s ruthless moves earlier and looking at Song Fan, the man shivered. “Yes, yes, I’m sorry, Peter sent me.”
“What was the purpose?” Song Fan frowned at him.
The man took a deep breath, not daring to defy her, and finally said in a low voice, “He’s about to die. His kidney is failing. If he doesn’t get a transplant, he will die.”
Song Fan and Gu Chen exchanged glances without speaking, then asked the bodyguards to take the men out. Once everyone had left, Song Fan spoke, “Peter is dying. He won’t let you off.”
With Gu Chen’s current good condition, Peter might act regardless of Gu Chen’s situation to save his own life. Gu Chen nodded slightly, a fierce glint in his eyes, “Then we should just…”
“No, I’ll tell Old Mr. Brown and let them fight it out.”
Song Fan quickly took out her phone, thought about her words, and then sent the recent events and photos to Old Mr. Brown. Old Mr. Brown called back almost immediately, “Miss Song, how is Gu Chen?”
“He was frightened and has fallen into a coma.” Song Fan lied with her eyes wide open, looking at Gu Chen sipping coffee beside her.
Gu Chen smiled at her, realizing how good a liar she had become. Old Mr. Brown’s voice trembled with anxiety, “He, he won’t be in danger, will he?”
“Not for now. I’ve given him medicine, but I can’t guarantee next time.” Song Fan’s voice was urgent, but her face remained expressionless. She only needed Old Mr. Brown to believe that Gu Chen was in trouble.
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone before Old Mr. Brown said solemnly, “Leave it to me. I will make sure Peter won’t bother Gu Chen again.”
