Chapter 559: [559] The Mysterious Patient Saved by Senior Apprentice Brother Chapter 559: [559] The Mysterious Patient Saved by Senior Apprentice Brother Gao Zhaocheng nodded in approval, âJunior Cao is impressive.â
Xie Wanyingâs teeth inadvertently clinked against her chopsticks, âI really want to see Senior Cao saving someone with his own hands; it must be super cool.â
Upon reflection, wasnât this the meeting Senior Cao mentioned they were having during dinner the night before?
Catching the glance from his junior sister, Huang Zhilei raised his eyebrows in a gesture: âYouâll have to forgive me, junior sister. Some patients have rather sensitive identities, and doctors need to keep their conditions confidential for a while.â
Big leaders, after all, it is said that if their illness becomes known to the public, it could affect the stability of the company. So, we canât disclose the conditions of patients unless the doctor says itâs no big deal.â
âSo, this is something that only a few people are aware of,â Gao Zhaocheng said.
âOf course, I donât know where you got your information from,â Xia Dongxian said skeptically as he looked at him.
Gao Zhaocheng smiled without a word.
âLogically, you shouldnât know. Because people from the cardio-thoracic surgery and neurosurgery departments, aside from doctors called in for emergency surgery, are all unaware, like Fu Xinheng knows but Zhu Huicang doesnât. And it is even less likely for us in the ICU to talk. Senior Dai, our ICU Director Dai, has signed a confidentiality agreement,â Xia Dongxian said.
âI didnât disclose anything,â Gao Zhaocheng quickly denied any breach of confidentiality.
âWere you also on night shift last night?â Xia Dongxian asked him in return.
âNo. I came back to the hospital early in the morning because a patient needed resuscitation,â Gao Zhaocheng said.
Xia Dongxian understood and didnât ask any more questions.
Eating her rice cakes, Xie Wanying suddenly stiffened. The eyes of Senior Xia across from her were fixed on her, as if he had noticed something.
âWhen did you come back to the hospital, and did you see a police car at our hospital?â Xia Dongxian asked Gao Zhaocheng.
Gao Zhaocheng was taken aback, âWhat, a police car? Was there another drunk causing trouble in the emergency room?â
Drunk people coming to the hospital emergency room and causing trouble while inebriated is a common occurrence that often requires calling the police.
âNo, a police car arrived at the entrance of our inpatient building,â Xia Dongxian said.
âI didnât see it. How do you know? Did you see it?â
âThe incident happened on our second floor,â Xia Dongxian said. âFirst, the nurses in our ward thought they heard someone outside shouting âthief.â They wanted to send someone to the entrance to check out the situation, but I wouldnât allow it. Itâs not safe for girls to run into bad people, so I said I would go and take a look. When I got to the entrance, I saw a woman waiting for the elevator. I asked her what happened. She kept saying it was nothing. I was about to go over when she took the elevator up to your sixth floor.â
Sure enough, Senior Xia was the person who called her last night. Xie Wanying could hardly move.
âAre you saying you saw a female thief ride the elevator to our sixth floor?â Gao Zhaocheng said, interpreting the meaning of his words.
Xie Wanying raised her head to glance at Senior Gao: Could it be? How had she become a thief?
âI didnât say she was a thief,â Xia Dongxian patted his old classmateâs shoulder, âdonât let your imagination run wild. Later, I called the security office, and the security guards at our hospital were acting strange, hesitating and unwilling to explain what happened. When I asked again, they told me to ask the hospital leadership. It occurred to me that maybe the thief from last night had been caught stealing some secret hospital documents, and they didnât want the public to know, so even I wasnât allowed in on it.â
So that was it. After listening, Xie Wanying realized she also couldnât just report the incident to her teachers; she needed to call the security office again.
