Chapter 1058: [1058] The anxious senior brothers
Senior Cao’s delivery was set aside because Teacher Lu’s grandson had co.
“Big sister, my grandma asked to give this to you.” Zhang Shuping handed Xie Wanying an envelope sealed with tape and said, “I don’t know what’s inside.”
“I’ll take it back and have a look first,” Xie Wanying said.
Zhang Shuping waited for a while, but seeing she had no intention of opening it in front of everyone, he had no choice but to leave.
At night, with the two senior sisters on the night shift absent and the weather being hot, Xie Wanying went out to buy a bowl of cold noodles and hurried back to her dormitory to eat it while eagerly opening the envelope to see what was inside.
Soon, the phone rang.
It was a call from Senior Cao. Xie Wanying suddenly rembered the chocolate that Senior Brother Huang had brought; she had been in such a hurry to get Teacher Lu’s things, she had left the chocolate in the office.
“Senior Cao.” She picked up the phone and quickly apologized, “Thank you for the chocolates, I left them in the office, I’ll get them tomorrow.”
Hearing this, Cao Yong paused for a mont before speaking gently, “That’s okay.”
“Senior, what’s up?”
“Talk to her quickly, ask her,” Yu Xuexian, standing beside him, urged him repeatedly.
Cao Yong frowned at this. He wasn’t keen on making this call; it was Yu Xuexian who had dragged him out to make it.
“She gets along well with you; she won’t completely refuse to answer if you ask her. We’re not asking for everything, just wanting to know a teacher’s general condition is enough.” Yu Xuexian pointed out the crux of the matter, “Don’t you want to know about the teacher’s condition?”
It seed like Senior Brother Yu’s voice was audible from the other side; Xie Wanying understood what the situation was and said, “Senior, I’ll talk to you about it later.”
The younger sister didn’t want to say anything because she had to adhere to the dical profession’s code of confidentiality; if the patient didn’t authorize disclosure, the information must remain confidential. In reality, Cao Yong didn’t intend to ask her about this; what he was more concerned about was, “Have you had dinner?”
He knew her personality; as soon as there was a patient’s issue, she’d likely neglect everything else.
“I have, I had cold noodles tonight. —— Have you eaten, Senior?”
“Your Senior Brother Huang should have told you, I was treated to a al, so I definitely ate well. Just having cold noodles isn’t nutritious enough.”
Senior Cao nagged like her mother would. Xie Wanying couldn’t help but smile and said, “Senior, I added a marinated egg and sausage.”
“Take your ti and eat, it’s fine.”
Yu Xuexian tugged at his arm and glared at him as if to say: You haven’t asked the important questions, are you planning to hang up?
Feeling displeased, Cao Yong hung up the phone right in front of him and said, “I’ve said before, if you dare, go ask the teacher yourself. Don’t trouble any other person.”
“I don’t understand, what’s wrong with asking her a question? If you don’t want to ask, why did you co out with to make this call?” Yu Xuexian stood with his hands on his hips, tilting his head looking at him as if trying to figure out what was wrong with his brain, “Four years ago, when you and Tao Zhijie were in a quarrel, you didn’t speak out and neither did he, so we never knew what exactly happened to Teacher Zhang during that ti.”
“Are you suspecting sothing?” Cao Yong asked sharply.
“I’m not suspecting. It’s just that many people are talking, saying that the two of you had a fierce fight. I personally think it’s better to be transparent about Teacher Lu’s issue, so that everything is crystal clear to everyone. This is for your own good, you know? Otherwise, if there’s another incident where you and her have a falling out, the trouble will be even bigger.”
“You’re overthinking,” Cao Yong cut him off.
