Chapter 296 — An Evening Date, While the Dealership Owner Waited Days for Black Panther to Transfer the Title but His Phone Stayed Switched Off
After hearing the dealer out, Qiu Lingshan did not bother to explain. She told him to come straight to the city police bureau and go with Wei Zhao to the vehicle administration office to transfer the title. As long as the car was not stolen goods, she could not be bothered to ask where Wei Zhao had gotten it from.
"All right, your business is settled. Now will you add to your statement?" Qiu Lingshan took out her statement notebook, ready to take Wei Zhao's deposition.
"Forget the statement. Just make one up yourself. The credit is all yours anyway. I do not want any of it," Wei Zhao said.
"No." Qiu Lingshan refused flatly. This time Wei Zhao had taken down Huang Guanya in full view of everyone, so how could the credit possibly go to her? What would other people say?
"Wait while I make a call." Wei Zhao ignored her, dialed Yang Huaijun directly, said a couple of words, then handed the phone to Qiu Lingshan: "Listen for yourself."
Qiu Lingshan took Wei Zhao's phone and heard Yang Huaijun's voice. Though she was not pleased with Yang Huaijun's order, she still answered meekly: "Understood, Director Yang!"
Qiu Lingshan frowned as she handed the phone back to Wei Zhao. What exactly was this fellow's relationship with Yang Huaijun? The always selfless and impartial Yang Huaijun, ever since he got mixed up with Wei Zhao, had seen his image collapse utterly in Qiu Lingshan's eyes.
"All right, you can go." Qiu Lingshan spoke crisply. Since Yang Huaijun had said the credit for this case would count as hers, then so be it. The men of the criminal team were all Yang Huaijun's old subordinates. As long as Yang Huaijun gave the word, no one would raise any objection.
"Heh, if you keep up this businesslike attitude next time, do not come looking for me." Wei Zhao was angry too. He was moonlighting as an agent and was not even paid, and this was the attitude he got?
Qiu Lingshan shot Wei Zhao a glare and said nothing. In her heart she said, what are you so cocky about? Think you are invincible? Just wait until you run into something you cannot solve, and see how I mock and taunt you. For now I will endure it.
Wei Zhao did not insist that Qiu Lingshan make any kind of statement. To him, whether she did or not made no difference at all.
Coming out of the police station, Wei Zhao saw a fat, big-eared fellow looking left and right at the entrance.
"Mr. Wang?" Wei Zhao walked over and asked.
"Yes, that is me." Wang Mingri came up to meet him with a face full of smiles: "You must be Captain Song's friend? Shall we go transfer the title now?"
"Heh, let us go. Then I will have to trouble you, Mr. Wang." Wei Zhao nodded.
Although Wang Mingri could see that Wei Zhao was not the man who had bought the car that day, Captain Song of the criminal team had personally called, so this man must be no problem. Captain Song would never cheat him out of a ten-thousand-yuan car, so Wang Mingri did not even ask for details and went to the vehicle administration office to help Wei Zhao transfer the ownership.
Before leaving, he even gave Wei Zhao a business card, telling him to call him directly next time he wanted a car. New or used, he knew people and could help.
Wei Zhao thanked him, put away the card, and prepared to drive to school.
Anyway this beat-up car was now Wei Zhao's private property. He could drive it to and from school every day without having to ask Gu Mengyao for permission.
Before he reached the school, Wei Zhao's phone rang. He took it out and saw it was Guan Xuemin's number.
"Grandpa Guan?" Wei Zhao quickly answered the call.
"Xiao Yi? What are you busy with?" Guan Xuemin's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Nothing much. I am just driving to school. Grandpa Guan, is something the matter?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Are you free tonight? My granddaughter is on leave tomorrow and will be home tonight. I will have her stir-fry a few dishes, and we two can have a couple of drinks?" Guan Xuemin had not discussed medical questions with Wei Zhao for a long time and could not hold back any longer.
If he did not call Wei Zhao, Wei Zhao never came to visit on his own. Left with no choice, Guan Xuemin could only swallow his pride and dial Wei Zhao's number.
"Tonight? That works." Wei Zhao had also been wanting to tell Guan Xuemin about his idea for setting up a pharmaceutical company, only he had never found the time. Since Guan Xuemin's call had come in today, Wei Zhao would naturally not refuse again.
"Then it is settled! I will be waiting for you at home on time!" Guan Xuemin was delighted to hear Wei Zhao agree to visit.
"No problem. I will be on time to trouble you." Wei Zhao smiled.
After hanging up on Wei Zhao, Guan Xuemin called his granddaughter Guan Xin.
Guan Xin had just finished giving her statement and had been given several days off by the director to go home and rest properly.
Guan Xin's cry of "Leave me alone, shoot quickly! The patient in the ward was stabbed by him. Without emergency treatment, his life will be in danger!" had already spread through the hospital, and even news reporters had come after hearing of it to interview her.
Director Qin was overjoyed, his face beaming as he faced the reporters who came to interview him! These days, many reporters loved to run negative stories about hospitals, which annoyed Director Qin greatly, but with what happened with Guan Xin this time, Director Qin could hold his head high!
Who would still dare to speak ill of our hospital? Our nurses are the finest. In the face of a threat to her life, her first thought was for the safety of her patients, not herself.
Of course, apart from that, no one knew the details of how Huang Guanya was killed, because only police personnel had been up front at the time. Everyone else could only stand far back on the perimeter. They could hear Guan Xin's shout, but they did not know Huang Guanya had been taken down by Wei Zhao.
Because Guan Xuemin and Guan Xin's father were shareholders of the hospital, Director Qin had wanted to look after Guan Xin, but he could never find a suitable reason. To promote someone, you had to convince everyone, did you not?
This time, however, he meant to promote Guan Xin as an exception, and he figured no one would say anything against it. With such an outstanding nurse, whom should he promote if not her?
While giving Guan Xin leave, Director Qin had already decided to hold a meeting of the hospital leadership that afternoon to discuss Guan Xin's personnel adjustment. Was not the old head nurse of the inpatient department about to retire? He would first make Guan Xin deputy head nurse, then wait for her to take over the post.
As for whether Guan Xin could achieve even more in the future, that would depend on herself.
Guan Xin had just left the hospital and was about to go home when her phone rang. She took it out and saw it was a call from home. Guan Xin froze. Could Grandpa have learned about her injury?
Guan Xin frowned and silently cursed whichever loose-lipped, bootlicking hospital leader had leaked it! She had been afraid her grandfather would worry, so she had told Director Qin not to tell her father or grandfather about it. But why had her grandfather's call come so quickly?
"Grandpa..." Guan Xin answered the phone, calling out uncertainly.
"Xinxin, you are on leave tomorrow, are you not?" Guan Xuemin asked with a smile.
"Yes... what is it?" Guan Xin was slightly taken aback. From her grandfather's tone, he did not seem to know what had happened earlier at the hospital, and Guan Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
