Chapter 950: [950] Situation Deteriorates

After two days away from the hospital department, Xie Wanying didn’t know what had happened between these two students.

"How can what my senior fellow student and I did be called a bribe?" Fan Yunyun became more infuriated the more she thought about what Geng Lingfei had said, so much that she felt smoke could billow from her nostrils, "He doesn’t have the skill or the heart. If he doesn’t want to visit you, he can only speak about me in that weird, sarcastic way."

Xie Wanying had to clarify and explain, "He has shown concern for me."

"Senior sister, how did he show concern for you?" Fan Yunyun asked, disbelieving.

"He gave me liniment oil."

Fan Yunyun could also offer liniment oil to her senior sister. Thinking this, she said, "Senior sister, I’ll bring you some liniment oil."

"No need," Xie Wanying could only repeat what Senior Cao had once told her to educate her younger school sister, "Only seniors may give juniors things. If a junior gives a senior something, that’s bribery. I didn’t accept his liniment oil."

Reflecting on it, the last time she had forcefully given Senior Cao a bottle of medicinal liquor and a hot water bottle was indeed a little "bribe" to him. However, the last time was different; it was she who had caused Senior Cao to get injured.

Is that so? Fan Yunyun looked up at the ceiling, deep in thought.

Just as the conversation with her junior had sidetracked her, Xie Wanying quickly returned to the main point and asked, "Is there a teacher in the department?"

"No," answered Fan Yunyun, "Everyone is in the operating room. We interns have been stood up by the teachers. We’ve been told to self-study in the department."

Interning in internal medicine might be alright, as the teachers are generally in the department. It’s tougher for surgical interns; the surgical teachers are usually not in the department and tend to spend the entire day submerged in the operating rooms. If they are not allowed to observe in the operating room, interns often find themselves with little to do in the department. Unless they’re like Xie Wanying at the beginning, who would go see patients and study case histories on her own. However, it’s hard for the average intern to have such Enlightenment.

There’s a reason why medical students who are new to clinical practice are called fledglings by their teachers because they are usually very timid, afraid even to interact with patients. If Xie Wanying hadn’t been reborn, she guessed she would have been scared too.

"Senior sister, what’s the matter?" Fan Yunyun’s brain finally caught up, realizing that her senior sister wouldn’t call unless something was wrong.

"Could you run to the emergency room and tell the teacher there? If you come out of the hospital entrance and turn left, after walking for a bit over a thousand meters, there’s a patient here." As Xie Wanying thought this through, she considered that perhaps she should make the run herself to call for help, as running a bit over a thousand meters would take her less than ten minutes. But as soon as she turned around, she noticed the situation on-site had changed.

Li Xiaobing was sitting on the concrete floor, her nostrils visibly breathing, slightly gasping for air.

"Senior fellow student Li, what’s wrong?" Xie Wanying approached, extending a hand to check Li Xiaobing’s pulse, counting a rate faster than normal, which alarmed her.

Li Xiaobing shook her head at her and pointed across the way with her hand.

Teacher Lu, who had been standing, was now slumped on the concrete floor, hand on one side of his abdomen as if in pain, sweat droplets falling from his face.

"Teacher Lu," Xie Wanying exclaimed in shock, hurrying to Teacher Lu’s side, "Where does it hurt?"

"I’m fine, just need to rest a bit," Teacher Lu replied, gesturing with his hand and asking her, "Did you manage to call someone?"

Xie Wanying, who had planned to run for help herself, had to abandon the thought and instead instructed her junior over the phone, "You go to the emergency room and inform the teacher. There are three patients here, one suspected of severe heatstroke, with symptoms of heat cramps, abdominal pain, and vomiting. The other two patients are a pregnant woman, and an elderly patient—"
