Chapter 599: 【599】The relationship is exposed Chapter 599: 【599】The relationship is exposed “`
These past few days, when Tan Kelin and Shi Xu were uninford on duty, conflicts arose.
“What is their relationship?” Liu Chengran asked his junior in a low voice.
It seed that this patient was related to Xie Wanying, but Xie Wanying had not ntioned it to these older teachers. Did she not want them to treat her with any special attention? In the hospital, doctors are essentially ritocratic towards any patient. Special care is out of the question, but knowing soone is an acquaintance might make so matters more negotiable.
Sun Yubo also wanted to clear up what was going on with the student.
“Elder Brother,” Little Aunt Zhang, fully unaware of the delicate atmosphere, said to Elder Brother Zhang who had just walked in, “Look who this is? It’s Zhang Wei’s top notch science classmate, now a doctor at Guoxie.”
“Husband,” Zhang Wei’s mother stood up, wanting her own husband to shut the little aunt up.
Little did she expect that Elder Brother Zhang was also happy to see Xie Wanying, pointing at her and saying, “She visited our ho back in the day, and I saw her a few tis. She was a very humble and hardworking child. I said then that she would definitely achieve great things.”
“Are you saying this in front of Zhang Wei?” Little Aunt Zhang asked with a giggle.
“I told her, but she was unhappy to hear it. I said she had to study even harder, otherwise one day her deskmate might surpass her. She didn’t believe ,” Elder Brother Zhang said, unafraid to uncover his daughter’s faults in public.
“Zhang Wei is not bad, either. She went to the United Kingdom,” Little Aunt Zhang finally noticed Zhang Wei’s mother’s unhappy face and tried to smooth things over.
What it ant for the daughter to study abroad in the United Kingdom, Elder Brother Zhang knew all too well: it was funded by the family’s money, not by her own rits through a publicly-funded scholarship. There was nothing to boast about.
He was a man so busy with work that he hardly had ti to go ho, and the entire responsibility of the children’s education was entrusted to his wife. Whatever his wife wanted, went. However, he was not satisfied with his daughter. Everyone was in the final sprint for the college entrance exams, but his overconfident wife claid their daughter needed to relax before the exam, which resulted in Zhang Wei ditching her studies to go listen to music, buy CDs, and chase after celebrities.
Having been admitted to a business school, which wasn’t considered top-tier in the country, they had no choice but to invest family funds to send her abroad for a gloss of gold. But the biggest fault of his daughter was that Grandma Zhang had fallen ill, and to this day, she hadn’t made a single phone call to inquire!
While the Zhang family was having their own conversation, the doctors were taking the opportunity to conduct examinations on Grandma Zhang.
Tan Kelin listened to Shi Xu’s report.
“The surgery is scheduled for the day after tomorrow. So we called the family over for a discussion today. The family wants laparoscopic surgery,” Shi Xu said, “but to completely excise the tumor, especially since it’s located low, I estimate it will be very difficult to perform laparoscopically.”
Hearing the latter part from the doctor, Zhang Wei’s mother hurriedly stressed to the doctor, “We ca here specifically wanting laparoscopic surgery.”
Essentially, if it wasn’t for laparoscopic surgery, Zhang Wei’s mother was completely unwilling to send the patient here.
Patients’ families always have various requests for surgery, so of which can be quite bizarre. Whether a patient undergoes laparoscopic or open surgery is not for the doctor or the family to decide; it’s determined by the patient’s condition. Therefore, the wise patients and their families never make such absolute statents to trouble the doctor.
Typically, the only family mbers that could demand a surgery from doctors with such arrogance, like what Zhang Wei’s mother did, were of one kind: those who believed they were God.
In this era, following the reform and opening-up, various Western ideologies have flooded into the country. Among them, one slogan is particularly loud: The custor is God. Implicit in this slogan is the idea that having money makes you God.
