Chapter 1112: [1112] Everyone wants to cure the teacher’s illness

The person on the other end of the phone got angry: "What do you want to do for Guoxie at our hospital?"

Song Xueling’s eyes caught a glimpse of Xie Wanying’s face next to him. Her usually calm face rarely showed a trace of unease. Turning back, he told the other party: "It’s for a patient."

"What patient?"

"A teacher from Guoxie has fallen ill."

Not expecting such an answer, the other party’s tone grew heavier: "Why would a Guoxie teacher come to our Beidu when they fall ill? Can’t they treat her themselves?"

"She had a classmate working as a doctor in Beidu before, so she had previously undergone examinations here. Guoxie asked me to find that doctor to understand the situation. It’s Teacher Fang from the Department of Gastroenterology. Senior Brother, do you have Teacher Fang’s phone number? I don’t have it on me," said Song Xueling.

"That’s really laughable. Skipping examinations at Guoxie to come all the way to our Beidu for tests? Which teacher? Do I know them? Chances are I might, considering Guoxie has gone to the extent of sending someone over personally," the person muttered on and on, "That must be some remarkable teacher then."

"So, Senior Brother—"

"Alright, I’ll look for Teacher Fang’s number and text it to you later," the person agreed, probably guessing that it must be some big shot in the medical community who has fallen ill. On such matters, there’s actually no distinction between doctors from any hospital, as everyone wants to cure the illness of a medical community boss.

Song Xueling got Teacher Fang’s phone number. He dialed Teacher Fang’s mobile.

Meanwhile, Xie Wanying received a call from Senior Brother Yu.

"Have you found the person? I heard you’re going to Beidu First Hospital to look for Teacher Fang Xueqing. I asked around for her phone number," said Yu Xuexian.

"Just found it," Xie Wanying reported to her senior, "Doctor Song is calling Teacher Fang now."

"If communication with them doesn’t go smoothly, call me," Yu Xuexian reminded her.

Senior Tao had already instructed her earlier that if things couldn’t be managed properly, she must call back right away to report. If not, Senior Brother might have to rush over personally. Tao Zhijie’s decision not to come over himself initially was to avoid escalating the situation, lest the people at Beidu think Guoxie was coming over to pressurize them, which could potentially lead to mutual resentment.

Aside from the obvious competitive relationship between Guoxie and Beidu, it is common for departments in both hospitals to discuss cooperation due to business intersections.

Song Xueling learned on the phone that Teacher Fang was going to hold a clinic at the hospital today, and he quickly set off for the outpatient department with Xie Wanying.

Not long after, the two of them met with Professor Fang in the outpatient clinic room.

As a classmate of Teacher Lu back in the day, Professor Fang was about the same age as Teacher Lu, with graying temples, wearing reading glasses, hair neatly combed and tied into a bun, and a more solemn countenance compared to the straightforward Teacher Lu, with occasional sharpness flickering in her eyes.

Upon seeing them, especially when she saw Song Xueling, Teacher Fang’s eyes seemed to narrow.

"Hello, teacher," Xie Wanying said, noting that Doctor Song by her side did not speak up.

Song Xueling was thinking whether it might be better not to speak first.

"What have you come to find me for? I didn’t catch it clearly on the phone," Professor Fang said, her penetrating gaze seeming to target Song Xueling. It appears that her intention to tell Song Xueling where she was over the phone was deliberate, wanting to have a face-to-face conversation with something to say.
