Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 697
Chapter 697
"Ah Huai!"
As soon as Jiang Ye spoke, Jiang Huai instantly calmed down.
"Alright, I won’t do anything."
Even though he said that, it didn’t mean he really wasn’t going to do anything.
Jiang Huai can’t do it himself, but can’t someone else do something?
If you can’t let this anger out, how can you call yourself a member of the Jiang Family?
Just then, the door to the operating room suddenly opened, and the doctor and nurse wheeled someone out.
The Lu Family trio was closest and immediately rushed forward:
"Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu?" Lu’s mother called.
Lu Jing had finally gotten his thoughts together a bit and went straight to the lead surgeon:
"Dr. Luo, how is Xiao Wu?"
If she could come out of the operating room this quickly, things probably weren’t that bad.
The attending doctor pulled off his mask: 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Don’t worry, she didn’t injure any vital areas. It’s just an external wound. Give it some time and she’ll recover."
At that, everyone present finally breathed a complete sigh of relief.
"But, although it’s just an external wound, it did affect the head, so be extra cautious these next few days. If anything happens at all, contact a doctor immediately."
Lu Jing kept nodding vigorously:
"Okay, got it. Thank you, Dr. Luo."
Lu’s father, Lu’s mother, and the Jiang Family’s elders all kept saying their thanks, too.
Then, Jiang Ye pulled Jiang Huai over and nodded at the surgeon.
This Dr. Luo also recognized Jiang Ye:
"Chairman Jiang, you’re here too?"
This—well, on the bright side, I’m getting some face time in front of the boss, right?
Definitely.
Perks would not be in short supply.
Jiang Ye gave a quiet "Mm":
"Dr. Luo, right? I’ll talk to you in a bit."
"Alright, Chairman Jiang."
Who would dare refuse that!
No one’s got the guts!
Even Jiang Huai was sporting a deeply grateful expression at this moment:
"Thank you, Dr. Luo!"
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing."
Even if Dr. Luo never gets super famous in this hospital, he’ll definitely do extremely well here from now on.
.....
Li Wu was wheeled into the hospital room, and finally woke up from the anesthesia.
Seeing so many people in front of her, she was momentarily confused, thinking she was still dreaming.
"Uncle Lu, Aunt Lu?"
"Jing’er? Are you alright?" She finally remembered everything, asking with concern.
Lu Jing couldn’t hold back and immediately started sobbing:
"I’m fine, I’m totally fine."
"Really?"
"Really, nothing happened at all. Didn’t you protect me so well?"
How could anything have happened?
"That’s good."
Lu Jing was crying at first, but suddenly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry:
"Does it hurt, silly girl?"
"Hehe, nope, doesn’t hurt. The anesthesia still hasn’t worn off yet."
Jiang Huai had come up at some point:
"You’re still laughing? Wait till the anesthesia wears off, you’ll be crying from the pain!"
That tone...
Compared to how anxious he was outside the operating room, these were two totally different faces!
Tsk tsk, I’ve seen people whose words don’t match their hearts, but never someone whose mouth is THIS stubborn.
Sure enough, Li Wu on the hospital bed didn’t even bother with Jiang Huai, but when she saw Jiang’s father and mother, she froze in shock:
"Uncle Jiang, Aunt Su?"
Hiss!
What’s going on?
Waking up, it felt like the sky was falling!
She wanted to grab her bestie’s hand, but the anesthesia hadn’t worn off, so she couldn’t.
In the end, it was Jiang’s mother who spoke up first:
"Xiao Wu, Aunt Su really has no idea how to thank you this time."
Uh.
Li Wu hurriedly responded:
"Aunt Su, this is nothing, no need to thank me. I did it willingly."
Jiang’s mother laughed:
"How could that be? Of course we have to thank you. Ah Huai!"
???
Jiang Huai glanced sideways at his own mom:
"Just say what you want, okay?"
Tsk tsk.
Jiang’s mother shot a look at her second son:
"From now on, Xiao Wu is your responsibility. You take good care of her for me!" Her voice full of threat.
