"Is this just a regular ward?" Carrying her luggage, Zhu Yiting could not help but ask Chen Yu, who was beside her, as she looked at the hospital room in front of her that seemed even better than the best ICU rooms in their hospital.

"This is a VIP ward, generally provided for special patients," Chen Yu explained to Zhu Yiting with a smile, "Although there are also regular wards, I think the VIP wards are a bit better and quieter, so I arranged for you to stay here. Plus, the admission process isn’t as quick for regular wards, whereas special patients in VIP wards often enjoy priority in many aspects."

Hearing Chen Yu say this, Zhu Yiting felt somewhat relieved and also became concerned about the cost of staying in the hospital, "Then, about the fees for this ward..." Discover more stories at Freewebnovel

Even though her family was quite wealthy, Zhu Yiting was well aware that the cost of living in Japan was much higher than in China. With the VIP ward offering great conditions and treatment, it naturally came with high charges, so she thought it best to clarify the costs upfront.

"Don’t worry, he’s part of a medical cooperation project. I can help you cover the expenses using research funds; you only need to pay for the basic medical fees. The additional cost for the bed difference is not something you need to worry about," Chen Yu explained to Zhu Yiting. He was of course aware of the astonishing additional fees for VIP wards, even ordinary people in Japan could not afford such treatment.

Chen Yu’s words made Zhu Yiting feel quite embarrassed. Chen Yu had arranged everything for her, and she felt deeply indebted to him, "This... This is so embarrassing! We should pay for it ourselves! It’s already a huge help that you’ve arranged the ward for us, how can we still ask you to help cover the medical expenses!"

Zhu Yiting immediately felt that she should not have asked Chen Yu about the costs directly, as it seemed like she was intentionally seeking his assistance. For Zhu Yiting, who already felt like she owed Chen Yu a significant favor for the help with the medical treatment, this was naturally quite embarrassing.

"It’s okay, this money comes from an experimental budget within the research project and doesn’t require any contribution from me," Chen Yu, sensing Zhu Yiting’s sentiment, laughed and indicated not to worry, "Moreover, the research funds include a portion specifically for the medical expenses of patients. For instance, patients participating in drug trials are covered by these funds when hospitalized, so you don’t need to feel embarrassed."

"I know." Kosuke Kanai nodded to his secretary and then turned back to Chen Yu with a smile, "I’m sorry, Professor Chen Yu, I have a meeting to attend, so I’ll leave Nanami in your care! By the way, are you free tonight? I know a great sushi place in Ginza, how about we have a casual dinner together, and you can tell me more about Nanami’s situation then?"

"This... Tonight?" Chen Yu frowned slightly but still nodded in agreement: "If there are no unexpected events, I should be free."

"Haha, that’s great! You usually finish work at five o’clock, right? I’ll have someone pick you up later," Kosuke Kanai laughed, then walked towards the elevator with his secretary.

Chen Yu watched the retreating figure of Kosuke Kanai and couldn’t help but smile as he turned to walk to his own office.

Inside the elevator, Kosuke Kanai suddenly instructed his secretary, "Check up on who Professor Chen Yu’s patient is. Also, the information about Professor Chen Yu that I asked you to find earlier, and if there’s anything he might need help with, have you found out?"

"Yes, Member of Parliament," the secretary replied promptly, rushing to answer Kosuke Kanai’s queries: "Professor Chen Yu still retains his Chinese citizenship. He has no relatives in Japan, but he is currently in a romantic relationship with Doctor Jounouchi Hiromi, who is also from Tokyo University Medical School Hospital. Information collected from the hospital confirms that Professor Chen Yu proposed to her last year and was successful. The couple has already met each other’s parents and are likely to get married within the year."

"As for areas where he might need help... Professor Chen Yu’s private life doesn’t seem to require any assistance. His financial situation is good, and he doesn’t have any debt. However, Professor Chen Yu’s main research interests are broad-spectrum anti-cancer drugs and nerve reconstruction surgery. In these two areas, there are opportunities that you can avail yourself of to curry favor with him," the secretary continued.

"Is that so? Tell me more," Kosuke Kanai turned to his secretary.
