Chapter 2023: Chapter 2025: Jiang Nuan vs Fu Yi 26
Fu Yi left decisively and briskly. Old Madam Fu came back worried, sighed, and said, "That rascal always tells me nothingās wrong, nothingās wrong, but with such a big earthquake, how could there be no danger? Heās always at the forefront, what if something happens... Nuannuan, do you think heāll be okay?"
Seeing her full of worry, Jiang Nuan grabbed her hand, nodded, and said firmly, "Heāll definitely be okay, donāt worry, Grandma."
"Hmm."
For three days in a row, Jiang Nuan kept an eye on the situation in Hechuan County. The news and online sources all said the earthquake in Hechuan County was severe, many houses had collapsed, and many people were buried in the collapsed walls. The hospital in the county town wasnāt in much better shape, with only two buildings left standing and at risk of being affected by aftershocks at any time.
After the leaders arrived, they immediately mobilized the police and fire departments from the neighboring city to set up a temporary disaster relief shelter on a flat piece of land, where the first batch of disaster victims was accommodated...
She saw the shadow of that man on the news. When the camera swept over him, he was standing amid the broken eaves and walls, commanding the on-site excavation and rescue. His handsome face remained as steadfast as ever, rarely without his glasses, the pair of sharp phoenix eyes usually hidden behind the glasses narrowed into a sharp intensity.
It was raining locally, but he didnāt use an umbrella. The hair on his forehead was soaked and clung to the sides of his forehead in strands, droplets of muddy water splattering on his light-colored turtleneck sweater, and he didnāt even blink.
Jiang Nuan had liked him for twelve years and had been married to him, living together for two years, so she knew better than anyone about his obsession with cleanliness.
In the past, someone of Director Fuās stature would never have allowed himself to wear clothes with dirty stains.
Today, she had completed all her work at the provincial hospital and, after finishing the handover with the hospital, Jiang Nuan packed her things and prepared to go back.
Before leaving, she thought for a moment and decided to go to Zhang Keās office to say goodbye.
Just as she reached the office door, she heard the sound of arguing inside.
"Director Zhang, why wonāt you let me go?"
"You have four surgeries scheduled for the day after tomorrow."
"Let someone else do them, itās not like they have to be done by me."
"Others havenāt kept up with the patients, how would they know the situation of the patients youāre handling? Switching people temporarily will increase surgical risks. We are doctors and have to be responsible for our patients!"
"Director Zhang, Iām the only one willing to go to Hechuan County, if I donāt go, who from our department will?"
"Thatās still not acceptable! Thereās no room for negotiation on this!"
Jiang Nuan heard Xu Qingrongās angry voice say, "Fine, if you donāt let me go, you find someone to go to Hechuan County now, I wonāt make a fuss. If you canāt find anyone, I still want to go! Even if you disagree, Iām going! Are the safety of four patients more important than the lives of millions in Hechuan County?"
Zhang Ke, exasperated, angrily yelled, "Those four patients also have their own families, theyāre fathers, sons, wives, mothers, and parents. Lives are at stake, itās not some math problem where 100 > 4!"
"Director..."
At this moment, Jiang Nuan pushed the door open and entered.
"Sorry, I didnāt mean to interrupt."
After she came in, Zhang Keās angry expression softened a bit, forced a smile, and said, "Nuannuan, what brings you here?"
Xu Qingrongās face didnāt look good from the moment she saw Jiang Nuan coming in, scowling and pretending not to see her.
Not wanting to make things awkward for herself, Jiang Nuan also pretended not to see her, didnāt greet her and walked straight in, saying respectfully, "Iāve completed the handover work with the branch leaders, so I came over to see you."
