Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s-Chapter 1978: Can Lend a Hand
"You should know that no matter what you say, it won’t exactly endear you to me," Doctor Hu said in a hard tone, unwilling to be overly concerned by this medical student. "I don’t like you and Xiao Song. The two of you are too smart, and in medicine, being too smart also represents emotional detachment. Some diseases can’t be cured even if discovered. You two are like Death Gods."
These words were as biting as a chilly wind.
Shen Xifei’s spirit trembled, thinking: Xie Wanying, you’ve finally met your match, thinking you’re all that, only to end up like a Death God. Doctor Hu spoke so well.
"Teacher Hu, are you saying that we should pretend not to know when problems arise? I admit that benevolent deception is sometimes necessary for certain patients in clinical practice," Xie Wanying said.
"You don’t understand what I’m saying. Whether you tell the patient or not, it doesn’t change the essence that the Death God comes to announce."
"I feel, Doctor Hu, that your understanding of me and Doctor Song shows you’ve experienced the same things as us," Xie Wanying said.
Impossible. Shen Xifei shook her head vigorously: Teacher Hu could never be like you, Teacher Hu’s viewpoint has always been polar opposite to yours.
It is the same. A person with different experiences wouldn’t be able to speak such profoundly insightful words.
Doctor Hu lowered her face, a low chuckle gurgling out of her throat, "You’re quite interesting, unlike Xiao Song. Xiao Song doesn’t speak with the same tact and worldly wisdom as you."
Student Xie’s words were at once derogatory and complimentary.
Doctor Hu stifled her laughter and suddenly seemed to change the topic as she said to her, "Let’s not talk about my matters, let’s talk about yours. Do you want me to help you? I’ve discovered you have your unspeakable secrets too."
Director Zhang had mentioned that to investigate her mother’s years-ago swap, she needed to reach out to people within the health system. Doctor Hu had the connections to help her.
The Boss had sharp eyes, able to see that she was hiding something. Xie Wanying’s expression turned serious.
Doctor Hu only knew she didn’t immediately refuse, as her lips curled slightly.
A beam of headlights rapidly pierced the night, the wheels grinding on the wet, snowy ground emitting a piercing screech, indicating someone slammed on the brakes.
As the daughter of a truck driver, Xie Wanying’s ears immediately picked up on the unusual information this sound revealed: brake failure!
Near the roadside where they stood, a speeding white van was out of control, slanting towards where Doctor Hu stood.
She could hear the sound but only see a blurred image; Doctor Hu couldn’t quite make out the situation, not knowing where to dodge, her body swaying like a scarecrow ready to fall at any moment.
In a split second, Xie Wanying ran towards Doctor Hu and extended both hands to give a forceful push. The two of them tumbled forward roughly three meters.
These crucial three meters saved their lives at a critical moment.
The van slammed onto the pedestrian pavement in that three-meter gap, its wheels pressing over where Doctor Hu had stood moments before.
The driver held onto the steering wheel to prevent the van from rolling off the road, continuing its erratic trajectory along the sidewalk towards a lamppost.
Shen Xifei screamed loudly, darting out from behind the lamppost, leaving a shadow streaking across the road. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
The van chasing her crashed into the lamppost, flipped sideways, swerved off the road, and only stopped its reckless charge once its front wheels rolled into the roadside cement ditch.
