Chapter 71: Taking a Day Off for Surgery

Li Manman dared not utter a word, meekly agreeing.

After hanging up the phone, she seemed to come to her senses.

Wait a minute! Wasn’t the purpose of her call to inquire about the company’s arrangements for Yan Yueqing? How did the conversation twist and turn, only to circle back to herself?

Li Manman clutched her phone, ultimately too afraid to disturb Director Yang again. Swallowing her frustration, she quietly walked back to the recording venue.

Meanwhile, Yan Yueqing suddenly became an internet sensation.

Opening Weibo, all the trending topics were about her:

#YanYueqing’s million-yuan tip: scripted or true tycoon?#

#YanYueqing’s charming and adorable son#

#YanYueqing fiercely protects Tang Tang#

#YanYueqing livestreams with a child to save leukemia patient#

The first few topics were fine, but the last one left Qin Youran utterly speechless!

It was clearly under her persuasion that Song Hui and his wife agreed to let Song Xiaoyu undergo testing for a bone marrow match. How did it suddenly become all of Yan Yueqing’s credit?

These netizens were so fickle! Just because she tipped brother Lin a million yuan, they instantly became sycophants^[1]bootlickers, as if the money had gone straight into their own pockets. It was ridiculous.

However, the higher Yan Yueqing’s standing became, the more pleased Qin Youran felt.

After Song Xiaoyu’s successful match, everyone was celebrating for Song Xiaohua, but only Qin Youran noticed Song Xiaoyu’s feelings! She was like a gentle stream, slowly nourishing the child’s barren heart.

Therefore, when Xiaoyu suddenly refused to donate bone marrow, only Qin Youran could persuade her.

As for Yan Yueqing? What did her money matter? Song Xiaoyu’s emotional knots could only be untied by Qin Youran. At most, Yan Yueqing would just gain the title of some wealthy philanthropist.

Even if that failed, Qin Youran still had tricks up her sleeve.

Sure, Yan Yueqing could donate money, but could she donate to thousands upon thousands of cases?

Families like brother Lin’s and Song Xiaohua’s, stricken with serious illnesses and lacking funds for treatment, were everywhere.

It was Qin Youran who proposed charitable donations, and it was also Qin Youran who began to establish a transparent donation organisation.

When the time came, if Yan Yueqing had money, she could donate to this organisation! Yan Yueqing would provide the funds, but Qin Youran would reap the benefits. No matter how you looked at it, Qin Youran wouldn’t lose.

Song Xiaoyu’s matching results would take four days. During this time, the show continued to livestream as usual.

Almost half of the fans stayed glued to Yan Yueqing’s livestream, with only a few checking in on other guests. Everyone’s hearts were anxiously awaiting that result!

On the second night, some clues about Song Xiaoyu’s background emerged.

Wang Sheng worked quickly, efficiently sending over the information: 「Miss Yan, based on the information you provided, I found an incident that might be related to Song Xiaoyu. Seven years ago, there was a hostage situation involving an infant in the obstetrics department of A City Hospital. The perpetrator tried to extort the wealthy businessman Song Qinglong, but it escalated into a kidnapping.」

Yan Yueqing asked gravely, 「Was that infant Song Xiaoyu?」

Wang Sheng replied, 「That infant was Song Qinglong and his wife’s only daughter, Song Xiaoxiao!」

Song Qinglong? Song Xiaoxiao?

「At that time, hospital management was lax, and the nursery was in chaos. Some babies were even mixed up in the confusion. The hospital had no choice but to conduct paternity tests for each infant before allowing parents to take them home…」

They did paternity tests?

Yet Song Xiaoyu still wasn’t Song Hui and his wife’s biological child…

Yan Yueqing’s expression turned serious—

It seemed this wasn’t just an ordinary case of mistaken identity! It was very likely premeditated!

Could Song Xiaoyu’s biological parents actually be Song Qinglong and his wife?
