A Billion Dollar Exchange

250 What to do?

The details in the mail read that she had been discharged already. He was not related to her in anyway, therefore, there was no way he could get information on her__ that was if she was really the one the admitted in the hospital.

Jin Yue sat in the car, thinking for a moment. After God knows how long, he finally pulled himself from the car and walked towards the hospital. Sitting in the car wasn't going to make her appear in front of him, the only way to find out was to enter and make inquiries.

The hospital building was a bit quiet; there were few nurses littered around, but most of the patients were in their wards.

Jin Yue thought for a while before walking up to the receptionist.

''You are welcome sir, how may I help you?''

The receptionist, whose eyes were groggy, asked.

Jin Yue thought for a moment;

''I'm here to check on someone who was admitted here.''

''Okay.''

The lady turned on the desktop in front of her, before looking at Jin Yue again.

''What's her name?''

''Xin Yong; ''

Jin Yue was elated on how easy it was. He didn't expect to get information on a patient that easily.

''What's your relationship with the patient, sir?''

The hope he had just now came crashing head first to the ground when he heard the receptionist question.

What was his relationship with her?

They had broken up, so he was no longer her fiancé, and after what he did to her, he wasn't a friend either.

Jin Yue was quiet for a while and the receptionist grew suspicious.

''Sir?''

Jin Yue blinked back to reality;

''I'm a relation…''

If he wanted to get some information, he was going to have to lie first.

''A blood relation? ''

''Yes ''

''Your ID please.''

Jin Yue's mouth fell open when he heard the lady. His surname was different from hers, and his ID would expose him.

''We don't reveal patients' information without due verification, Sir ''

''But I'm not with my ID ''

Jin Yue lied again, brushing his hand through his hair.

The lady, who was ready to check the patient on the computer, logged it off immediately.

''Sorry Sir, but I cannot help you. I cannot release patients' details without verification. Is there anything else I can help you with?''

Jin Yue's head fell.

If he couldn't get information from the hospital, how was he going to confirm that she was indeed the one admitted?

''Please, this is very urgent. I don't need any details on the patient; I just want to know if she was really admitted in this hospital. ''

Jin Yue pleaded; he was already exhausted and coupled with the unyielding lady before him he looked nothing less than frustrated.

The woman sighed, her brows creased into a frown/

Jin Yue did not know what else to do. He was running out of options.

''What if I give you 100,000 Yuan, would you check it for me? ''

At the mention of money, the lady's face scrunched up.

''Are you trying to bribe me? ''

She exclaimed, raising her voice a little.

Jin Yue looked around to make sure no-one was watching them, turning back to the woman, he lowered his voice.

''No, I'm not, I'm just in a tight corner right now and I'm running out of time. Please Ma, I need to know if this lady was admitted in the hos…''

''I've told you I can't release information on any patient without your ID! How would I know that you are not an assassin sent to kill her? Please, if you don't have anything else to do, I would like to take a nap.''

The lady replied curtly and bent her head on the desk, totally ignoring Jin Yue.

Jin Yue's head fell for a moment; he did not know what else to do. After standing for a while, he turned around and walked out of the hospital and to his car.

How would a receptionist be that cruel? Even after offering her money!

Jin Yue sat in the car, thinking for a while. There was no way he was returning to Beijing without seeing Xin Yong or being sure that she was not the one admitted in that hospital;

He checked the time on his watch; it was still past three in the night.

Jin Yue figured that he might have to book a hotel because this would take longer than he had anticipated. He picked up his phone and called the secretary informing him take care of things in the company and urgent matters should be sent to his email.

Starting up the engine, he drove out of the hospital. He searched for a nearby hotel and lodged in. After taking a shower, he ordered food and took a short nap. He had come with just one set of clothes, which was the one he was putting on.

He quickly ordered for clothes online and waited for it to be delivered. After changing into them, Jin Yue stepped out of the hotel, entering his car again; he drove back to the hospital.

This time, there was another lady receptionist. Jin Yue thanked his stars and gladly walked up to her.

He went through the lines as he did with the other receptionist but he was disappointed when he received the same reply.

Jin Yue wondered how a local hospital could be so strict with rules!

He didn't know what else to do. Was he going to go around the street showing her picture to everyone asking if they knew her or had seen her somewhere?

If only they would just tell him if she was really the one admitted, at least he would have some hints on what next to do.

Jin Yue thought for a while. His eyes widened as an idea popped into his head.
