Chapter 14 Finding the Child's Whereabouts
Chapter 14 Finding the Child's Whereabouts
"Ma Fangfang, do you know what qualities doctors need to be qualified to come to our Jiangcheng Hospital?"
Looking at Lu Mingxuan's handsome face, Ma Fangfang's mind was filled with images of the girls in her department swooning over him.
Since he came to this hospital, people have been sending him gifts when he's on night shift, all hoping to be on the same shift as Lu Mingxuan.
"Dean Lu, is it because he's good-looking?"
Ma Fangfang also knew that she was getting older and wasn't as glamorous and likable as those young girls.
"Ma Fangfang, it's a wonder you've been a doctor for so many years, how could you say something like that? The most important thing for a doctor is medical ethics, do you know that?"
Ma Fangfang breathed a sigh of relief: "Dean Lu, I knew you weren't the type to judge a book by its cover."
"Enough with the nonsense, I just want to ask you, when you were in China, did you deliver a baby for a woman named Song Qiao and then switch her daughter with hers?"
More than five years later, Ma Fangfang was horrified when she heard about it again. She had done it for money back then. Later, she found out that the child she had slept with was the niece of a company CEO, so she used her connections to get to Jiangcheng Hospital.
Unexpectedly, someone still managed to find their way here, and even went directly to her supervisor.
"Dean Lu... I... I didn't!"
Just as Song Qiao was about to leave again, Lu Mingxuan slammed his hand on the table: "Ma Fangfang, do you really want me to get the evidence and throw it in front of you before you admit it? You better think it over, by then it will be too late. Not only will your medical license be revoked, you'll be going to work as a sewing machine operator."
"Dean Lu, please don't!"
Outside, Lu Mingxuan was threatening Ma Fangfang. Inside the room, Song Qiao glanced back at the layout of the lounge and was secretly surprised.
In her mind, men were all sloppy and unkempt. Even successful men had family members to help them take care of their appearance. But Lu Mingxuan's room was spotless.
On the bed, the dark gray checkered sheets exude a sophisticated and classy feel.
There was a display shelf in the room, and everything on it was spotless. Even the bathroom was sparkling clean.
Song Qiao interpreted this as a doctor's habit.
As Song Qiao was looking around the room, Ma Fangfang's voice came from outside: "Dean Lu, if I tell you, can you help me keep this a secret? Otherwise, my medical career will be over."
With Lu Mingxuan's "Okay," her voice became even softer, and Song Qiao had no choice but to open the door a crack.
“It was her husband who made me do this. At the time, his mistress was also about to give birth, and he wanted to switch the babies, take his mistress’s daughter home to raise, and leave his wife’s daughter outside.”
Upon hearing that she had been thrown outside, Song Qiao burst into tears. Her biological daughter was still alive; this was the sentence she most wanted to hear.
Do you know where that child is now?
Lu Mingxuan's voice.
"I didn't know. Later I heard that Jiang Ming had someone dump the child at the garbage station in the west of the city."
Garbage dump?
Song Qiao's heart sank lower and lower, then her whole body went cold. What if no one noticed and the child got caught in the garbage truck? Wouldn't the child die then?
At this moment, Song Qiao wanted to go out again, but Lu Mingxuan outside coughed. She knew that he was stopping her from going out.
“Ma Fangfang, I don’t need to call the police on this matter, but tell me how much money Jiang Ming gave you back then? And who switched the child and took it?”
"This...I..."
Ma Fangfang realized the problem was serious, but she wanted to speak up yet dared not.
Don't force me to call the police!
“It was a nurse named Zhang Xia who took it away. Jiang Ming gave me 10,000 yuan and gave her 10,000 yuan as well.”
Lu Mingxuan, still holding back, continued to ask, "Where is Zhang Xia now? Is she still in China?"
"After that incident, Zhang Xia left China, and I don't know where she is now."
Lu Mingxuan gritted his teeth, but still didn't explode: "Do you have Zhang Xia's contact information?"
Ma Fangfang shook her head: "Dean Lu, you promised not to call the police and not to tell anyone about this. I have a sick child at home who needs to take medicine all year round. Please don't revoke my medical license."
Lu Mingxuan finally snapped: "Zhang Xia, you are also a mother. When you switched someone else's child with another child, did you ever think about that innocent child? And her biological mother?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Fangfang lowered her head in shame: "For the past five years, I have been afraid that this matter would be exposed. I have been restless day and night. Dean Lu, I know I was wrong."
“Ma Fangfang, if you want to keep your medical license, you have to stand up when you are needed to testify in this matter.”
Lu Mingxuan had already realized that Song Qiao and Jiang Ming's marriage had come to an end.
But now is not the time to think about that; the most important thing is to find the child.
After Ma Fangfang left Lu Mingxuan's office, he got up and went to the lounge. When he opened the door, he saw Song Qiao with tears streaming down her face.
He stepped forward and hugged her: "Don't be sad, I will definitely help you find your child."
"Lu Mingxuan, what if the baby is lost? What should I do?"
Lu Mingxuan had also thought of this, and patted her on the back: "Let's find Wang Xia first."
After saying this, Lu Mingxuan took out his phone and dialed the number Ma Fangfang had given him. Song Qiao looked at him with hope in her eyes as he held the phone in his long, beautiful hand.
However, the number on my phone is not in service.
"Lu Mingxuan, where does Wang Xia live? I want to go to her house to find her."
Lu Mingxuan forgot to ask Ma Fangfang this question, and then returned to his desk and dialed her cell phone number again.
However, the other side is a dial tone.
In other words, Ma Fangfang didn't want to answer his call.
"I'm going to find her now."
After saying this, Lu Mingxuan left the office, and Song Qiao sat on the sofa outside waiting for him to return.
Less than ten minutes later, Lu Mingxuan returned, looking annoyed: "That Ma Fangfang actually took leave and left."
Left with no other option, Song Qiao dialed Gao Xiang's phone number.
Gao Xiang answered the phone, and Song Jie's voice came through: "Sister Song, is something the matter?"
"Dr. Gao, I want to ask you about someone. There used to be a nurse named Wang Xia in your area, who delivered my baby along with Ma Fangfang. Does anyone know where she is now?"
After a brief silence, Gao Xiang's voice came through: "Sister Song, Wang Xia has been gone for several years. If she's intentionally hiding, I doubt she'll leave any contact information for anyone."
"What should we do? She's the one who switched the baby back then. I need to find her and ask her where the baby went."
"There's nothing we can do about that. If you want to find it, come to the hospital's records office and see if she filled in her home address when she joined the company."
Song Qiao agreed, and the two ended the call.
Just as Song Qiao was in a hurry to go to China, Lu Mingxuan stopped her: "I'll drive you there!"
Jiangcheng Hospital and Huaxia Hospital are located in the south and north of the city, respectively. If Song Qiao were to rush there, the hospitals would probably be closing time.
Song Qiao thought about picking Jiang Xiaoran up from school at noon, and nodded at Lu Mingxuan.
