Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1418: Chapter 1417: Just as Tong Said, Faking Death

If memory is correct, during school days, Ning Fanwei was once a prominent figure, due to his identity as a member of the Ning Family.

Ning Fanwei waved his hand, saying: ”I am not worth mentioning, just a descendant from a branch, not a significant figure. If it’s about understanding the family, I think Brother Li Yan is the most familiar.”

The matter of Devil King being the heir of the Li Family has long been widely discussed in the circle.

Even if Ning Fanwei has no intention to inquire, he can still know about it.

Li Yan also waved his hand, saying: ”I live in the East District, knowing little about Shoucheng, and likewise it’s just in name only, not worth much.”

The Eldest Young Master of the Li Family is simply a façade, with real power entirely controlled by Gong Qingwan.

The mission is one thing, self-interest is another, due to these two reasons, Li Yan keeps fighting for power, which is indeed a difficult path.

Indeed, every family has its difficulties.

Ning Fanwei understands the underlying principles; he changed the topic, saying: ”I don’t know much about family matters, but at least I count as a family member, so I’ll dare to say a couple of words. Besides the remaining wealthy families left by the fallen old families, there’s hardly any family background that’s clean in Shoucheng. Their connections are astonishingly dense, making them hard to manage.”

”Thus, once it’s said to deal with family members in Shoucheng, whether it’s the Constable Station or the Academy, everyone becomes incredibly headache-inducing.” Ning Fanwei raised his eyes again, saying: ”Therefore... when Sister Gu Tong mentioned potential insiders, I too felt the same way...”

Qiao Chenyi furrowed his brows, saying: ”If looked at this way, Du Wanyu’s safety does indeed become a problem.”

Ning Fanwei nodded, saying: ”Yes, protecting against everything, yet it’s hardest to guard against internal thieves; that’s the rationale.”

”The best solution is what Tong said about feigning death, but she’s seriously ill now.” Qiao Chenyi looked up, inquiring: ”Sister Tong, is it true that Du Wanyu cannot be moved?”

Gu Tong pursed her lips, saying: ”Du Wanyu’s condition is special; she needs to be treated in the critical care unit and cannot be moved for now. However, if she’s in the critical care unit, it’s easier for us. As long as we strictly screen the list and ensure all medical staff are trustworthy, there won’t be any safety issues.”

Ning Fanwei’s eyes lit up, asking: ”How to do it?”

Gu Tong smiled lightly, saying: ”I am a Royal Doctor, so I know a bit about it. The doctors, nurses, and medical staff in the critical care unit form a fixed team, and the unit is isolated, inaccessible from the windows, making it much easier for our protection.”

Li Yan thought for a moment, saying: ”If so, we only need to screen the doctors and nurses, then install surveillance in the critical care unit, without needing much manpower, it can be fully covered.”

Gu Tong lowered her head, saying: ”Yes, that’s the principle. This medical team requires high standards; formal hospital staff need to be arranged, no interns can be used, and they must keep the patient’s secrets. For instance, steadfastly stating that Little Yu’s injuries are severe, she’s near death, and hospitalization is just prolonging her life.”

Formal employees have contracts and are not easily bribed; if something happens, they bear medical responsibilities and more.

Interns are different; their contracts are short, some are university internships lasting only a semester and then leaving the hospital. If something happens, they can shift blame onto their teachers during their internship, affecting themselves less, thus making them more susceptible to high-price bribery and trouble.
