After finishing breakfast and tidying up the table, Xie Wanying observed senior fellow student Li’s baby bump and said, "Senior fellow student, your due date should be approaching, right?"
"Yes, next month. In about five or six days." Li Xiaobing counted the days on her fingers, recalling the difficult journey she and her baby had gone through, which almost brought her to tears. Every mother has a tough ti.
"I’ve decided to check into the hospital in a couple of days to avoid unforeseen complications," Li Xiaobing shared her plan with her junior, saying, "You won’t be in our hospital’s obstetrics departnt, only your classmate will be there."
Li Qi’an, a classmate, was in the obstetrics departnt, likely to help care for senior fellow student Li when the ti ca.
As they were chatting, a phone call from the patient’s family ca in. Xie Wanying said goodbye to her senior and promised to return after taking care of matters, planning to buy so groceries for her senior to cook.
Leaving the house, it was past eight o’clock; the sunlight peeked through the clouds, sweeping away the gloom from the heavy snow of the morning and the night before.
Having agreed to et at the hospital entrance, Xie Wanying quickly walked there to avoid keeping others waiting.
At the bustling entrance of Guoxie Association Hospital, Mr. Liu stood on the steps of the outpatient building, waving to her with a dical record in hand.
Xie Wanying looked over and saw Mr. Liu tightly clutching Doctor Hu’s hand.
Previously, Teacher Hu had not ntioned coming, and the situation was sowhat unexpected. Xie Wanying recalled the discussion among her senior brothers and sisters in the room earlier, sensing that this matter might be tricky.
"I asked her to co," Mr. Liu explained the situation as she approached, "I told her that just looking at the dical record is not very clear; it’s best if you, as the patient, co to et the doctor in person and let the doctor see your condition firsthand. It’s not acceptable to completely lose confidence without even trying. After going ho, I inquired thoroughly and learned that Dr. Cao is different from other doctors; he dares to perform surgery on patients with difficult conditions and try new treatnts."
Sotis an outsider sees things more clearly. Although Mr. Liu is not from the industry, he cares for and considers his wife from the correct and rational perspective.
It was likely Doctor Hu was persuaded by her husband’s words at ho, so she accompanied him without expressing any opinions, appearing sowhat silent.
Xie Wanying led the two of them to the inpatient departnt, heading to the ninth-floor neurosurgery ward.
At this mont, inside the surgical ward, the doctors had finished their rounds and were preparing to perform surgery in the operating room.
According to the nurse, Senior Cao was in the office, and Xie Wanying brought the patient and family mber to the door of Senior Cao’s office.
Knock, knock, a tap on the door.
The door was ajar, and with a knock, it opened on its own.
At this ti, the senior doctor’s office was customarily packed with healthcare professionals and dical students. Noticing this, Xie Wanying initially withdrew her head.
"Yingying, co in." Huang Zhilei, catching sight of her, called out.
Xie Wanying stepped aside at the door, allowing the others who had finished the eting to leave first. Not seeing Doctor Song, he might be off duty today after many consecutive shifts.
As people gradually left the office, several individuals entered.
Regarding who Doctor Cao Yong was, Mr. Liu felt there was no need for an introduction upon entering the office; the imposing man standing behind the desk in a neat, clean, and tidy white coat was undoubtedly Doctor Cao Yong.
"Hello, Dr. Cao." Mr. Liu walked forward, respectfully greeting.
Hearing the family mber’s voice, the busy Cao Yong looked up, nodding towards the family mber, and his gaze followed, sweeping over the patient’s face behind them.
