Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s-Chapter 1971: Not Lying
[1971] Not Lying
Aunt Min was completely baffled and said, "At the time, I reached out to her wanting to say save me, but she didn’t seem to see me at all. Her eyes were terrifying, like those of a dead person."
"Doctor Hu’s eyes are terrifying?"
"I felt her eyes were cold and lifeless, without any light."
No light reception, no focus—could her eyesight be failing? If not blind, her vision must have drastically deteriorated.
Doctor Hu wasn’t lying when she said she didn’t see the patient fall because she simply couldn’t see.
Xie Wanying was taken aback, then recalled her previous conversation with Doctor Hu in the office.
Doctor Hu’s first question was whether she was being blamed for not notifying anyone. This suggested that Doctor Hu actually wanted to notify someone, but perhaps Xie Wanying acted quickly, making it unnecessary. Why didn’t Doctor Hu administer emergency care on the spot? Because Doctor Hu’s eyes couldn’t see clearly and she had no idea what was happening, let alone participate in rescue efforts.
Doctor Hu mentioned that she went to the stairway to find something, which might have been something she lost. Not finding it, she hurried back to her office. This item was likely related to her eye condition. It’s possible she returned to the office to retrieve eye drops for an emergency.
Doctor Hu’s eye condition was no ordinary eye disease.
With that, all doubts were resolved.
"Aunt Min, have you found your phone?" Xie Wanying looked at the phone that had been missing from Aunt Min’s hand.
"Yes, I later heard that a cleaner found it and handed it over to the relevant department of your hospital. My nephew received a notice from the hospital to retrieve it. We thought it had been stolen and were about to report it to the police." Aunt Min replied.
The mystery of the lost phone was also solved. It seemed Doctor Hu’s eyes truly had an issue. Xie Wanying told Aunt Min, "Please understand her; she didn’t do it on purpose. She may have wanted to help but was powerless at the time."
Aunt Min blinked for quite a while after hearing this, as if she understood and yet didn’t.
Given Doctor Hu’s personal privacy, Xie Wanying decided not to elaborate for now. Besides, whether Doctor Hu’s eyes were truly blind needed further verification. It’s best not to speak carelessly about uncertain matters. This was a lesson learned from experience.
Knock, knock, a knocking sound came from the door. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Who is it?" Aunt Min shouted, "The door’s unlocked."
The door was pushed open. Dr. Qi, the patient’s attending physician, stepped in first with large strides and stood at the foot of the bed, saying to the patient, "As I mentioned to you before, we’ve invited an expert from Guo Xie Neurosurgery Department to examine your physical condition. We’ve invited Dr. Cao from Guo Xie Neurosurgery Department. Today, he has taken time out of his busy schedule to come."
Upon hearing the attending physician’s words, Aunt Min repeatedly thanked the expert for coming to see her, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor."
Following Dr. Qi, a group of people walked in.
Xie Wanying turned to face the door and saw Senior Cao in an elegant posture, dressed in a white coat from Guo Zhi Hospital, appearing in the ward.
Cao Yong, focusing on work, merely glanced at her, not exchanging pleasantries, but his eyes held a warm and steady smile for both her and the patient.
Xie Wanying voluntarily stepped aside to make room for Senior Cao.
Cao Yong approached the bedside and first checked the patient’s pulse.
"Yingying, long time no see."
The voice, like a lark taking flight, was unmistakably that of Senior Brother Shim.
Shim Youhuan, wearing a white coat with a row of buttons not yet fastened, entered the room with energetic strides and greeted his junior sister as soon as he saw her.
