Chapter 527: Please treat, please treat [527] Chapter 527: Please treat, please treat [527] āSenior Sister!ā
Hahaha, Kang Mingzhu laughed heartily, not forgetting to congratulate her junior sister on successfully being the Chief Surgeon for the first time, āIāll treat you to a meal!ā
āI already offered first.ā Lau Jingyun hurriedly pushed her aside.
āYou treat in the morning, Iāll treat at noon.ā Kang Mingzhu firmly arranged the junior sisterās meal plans for the day, āAnd letās have one of the senior brothers treat in the evening.ā
A beep, a message arrived.
āYingying, Senior Cao and I congratulate you, what do you want to eat tonight, you name it!ā
It was a generous text from Senior Brother Huang.
Thereās no need. Xie Wanying declined. She couldnāt let her senior brothers and sisters treat her every day. It hadnāt been long since Senior Cao had treated her to a steak.
Huang Zhilei: Didnāt you consult Senior Cao about the first time being Chief Surgeon? You should report back to us, right?
He was right, she needed to repay Senior Caoās favor, it required reporting back. She hadnāt properly thanked him for his help on Tuesday evening.
Xie Wanying: How about I treat tonight? Otherwise, I wonāt go.
Huang Zhilei: Didnāt Senior Cao tell you? No bribing us.
Xie Wanying: Deep in thoughtā¦
Huang Zhilei: How about this, going for steak again tonight?
Xie Wanying: No, no. Letās have noodles.
The two senior sisters leaned over and, eavesdropping on her text, grabbed her: āSteak!ā
What noodles? How could they pass up the chance to take advantage of a senior brother offering a meal? The two senior sisters knocked on her head: Donāt be silly.
āLetās have hot pot.ā Xie Wanying finally compromised.
āLetās eat at the food stall.ā Kang Mingzhu suggested, āThereās a restaurant opposite the hospital, they cook some tasty dishes, and itās cost-effective.ā
The senior sister, like the senior brothers, is a foodie.
After having breakfast with the two senior sisters, she bought egg milk buns for Teacher Sun and Li Qiāan and brought them back to the department. With Teacher Sun present and the classmate absent, Xie Wanying turned around and went to the ward to call for him.
Just as she guessed, Li Qiāan was in the ward, talking to the aunt in bed 23.
āYouāre like my son, my son wears glasses just like you, very studious, heās abroad and canāt come back,ā the aunt said, holding on to Li Qiāanās hand.
Didnāt the auntās son come over yesterday? He was called by the doctor for a talk. He didnāt wear glasses and was a finance professional.
Whatās going on? Was the auntās brain failing?
Li Qiāan let the aunt hold his hand, striving to wipe away the sorrow in his heart while maintaining a smile on his face, āAuntie, would you like some soy milk? Iāll go buy it for you.ā
āNo need, they said they would deliver it, we have meal service,ā the aunt, however, remembered this clearly and didnāt let him leave.
Xie Wanying approached the bedside and said, āAuntie, Iāll keep you company, he has something to do.ā
Turning her head, the aunt gave her a glance: āWho are you?ā
āSheās Dr. Xie. My classmate, auntie. You donāt have to be afraid of her,ā Li Qiāan said.
Hearing this, the aunt slowly let go of his hand.
Li Qiāan left the ward to have breakfast, thinking that he would come back when he had time after eating.
Watching her classmate walk away, Xie Wanying moved a chair to sit beside the auntās bed and said, āAuntie, could you tell me his story again?ā
āMy sonās story?ā The aunt began to tell it with pleasure as soon as she heard her interest, āMy son has been very smart since he was little, he could recite Tang poetry, if you asked him to recite poems by Li Bai, he would recite them well.ā
Due to lack of oxygen, even though the patient was excited, the speech was intermittent, as she gasped for air without even realizing it and insisted on continuing. Seeing this, Xie Wanying stood up and adjusted the patientās oxygen cannula to make her as comfortable as possible.
