Chapter 760: Chapter 757: His Status Is That High?

(It seems like Friday again, time flies so fast, hehe. I’ve had some thoughts these past two days that I want to share with everyone. Writing up to now, the book is nearly two million words. I’ve seen many readers say that the pace of the book is slow. Those who are attentive should be able to see that this is the longest book I’ve ever written. This book is, in a way, a learning process and also a practice. The main purpose of writing this book is to imagine life a bit, to mourn the university life that is gone forever and can never return... All for the sake of feeling great! Of course, I hope everyone likes it, but I also know it’s hard to please everyone. If some people like it, there will definitely be some who don’t! I hope those who like it will continue to do so. I will strive to write better and more excitingly, making everyone feel more relaxed and happy while reading. Those who don’t like it, don’t need to be troubled or upset, and there’s no need to insult others, just leave it behind! Finally, I want to thank those friends who have supported me all the way. Thank you, I love you all! I will try to write something even more captivating! The above is a moment of reflection from your author, words of rambling, not included in the charge. Please rest assured.)

Chapter 757: Is His Status That High?

I hope she doesn’t know the things that she shouldn’t...

Xiao Yi, in the end, did not ask the driver to stop the car, mainly because he really didn’t know if the injured person was Zeng Xiaoxiao. If it was truly Zeng Xiaoxiao, he absolutely couldn’t fail to rescue her. He could only make the worst assumptions in his heart and silently ponder over counter-strategies, while praying she didn’t know too much.

Outside the hospital operating room, Doctor Niu and the two other doctors shook their heads one after another, hearing the almost commanding tone Zeng Xiaomei used while speaking to Xiao Yi on the phone, and even some anger appeared in their eyes.

They were annoyed with Zeng Xiaomei’s attitude speaking to Xiao Yi and annoyed at their own judgment beforehand, feeling like they had really misjudged the person. This young lady, who looked decent and seemed to have some temperament, turned out to actually have such an impossible and haughty demeanor!

Such a girl was better lost than found!

She was simply not worthy of a fine young man like Doctor Xiao!

Deep down, they all decided they would never encourage Xiao Yi to be with her and even planned to find an opportunity to advise him to stay as far away from this girl as possible. With Xiao Yi’s caliber, what kind of good girl couldn’t he find? Why settle for a quality-lacking, shrew-like woman and put up with her?

If worst comes to worst, there were plenty of young and beautiful doctors and nurses in their hospital. Introducing any one of them to him would be better than being with her!

Doctor Niu had an epiphany; now he understood why Xiao Yi tried to avoid her earlier, looking like he’d seen a ghost. With such a girlfriend, he too would run away—faster than Xiao Yi, no less!

Because of their annoyance, they couldn’t be bothered to speak anymore with her. Their eyes rolling, they stood there minding their own business, occasionally glancing down the corridor, waiting for Xiao Yi’s arrival.

Zeng Xiaomei was somewhat puzzled that after making a phone call, they seemed to have suddenly developed an opinion of her. Even the previously enthusiastic Dean Chen had become silent. However, since she had already asked what needed to be asked, and she wasn’t a talkative person, if they were silent, she didn’t say anything else. She just stood there with complex feelings, waiting for Xiao Yi, while her mind was a mess—thinking whether Xiao Yi really was a doctor and how he could be one, and then wondering if he really could save that person once he arrived.

"Doctor Xiao!"

Suddenly, Doctor Niu and Doctor Li’s eyes brightened almost simultaneously, and they called out with a surprised joy, quickly striding towards the elevator entrance to greet him.

"Doctor Niu? Doctor Li, why are you here?"

Xiao Yi had just come out of the elevator and was about to look around for Zeng Xiaomei, but unexpectedly, he saw the three old friends. His face involuntarily revealed a look of surprise, which disappeared in an instant, replaced by a worried expression, "Guys, have you seen my friend? She’s a girl, about twenty-something..."

Ah... such a fine young man, how could that young lady not understand, not know how to cherish!

Seeing the nervous and worried expression on Xiao Yi’s face, the three doctors looked at one another and saw a look of disapproval in each other’s eyes, especially noticing the trace of sweat on Xiao Yi’s forehead, and they felt even more that he deserved better.

Comparing the time again, they could almost completely picture how Xiao Yi must have rushed here in a frenzy after receiving Zeng Xiaomei’s call, all the while internally consumed by anxiety over her well-being...

Thinking back to when Zeng Xiaomei made the call, and comparing that to what they were seeing now, they felt the urge to slap some sense into her and give her a profound lesson in respect!

After a while, it was Doctor Li who was somewhat calmer. He turned his head to glance at Zeng Xiaomei, who was looking at this side with a shocked and surprised expression, and with a slight embarrassment on his face, he said to Xiao Yi, "Doctor Xiao, actually... there’s nothing wrong with your friend, you don’t have to be so nervous."

"You know my friend?"

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly noticed the strange expressions on their faces, which seemed quite odd.

"Well, not to hide it from you, Doctor Xiao, but your friend, the patient, was under our care for a rescue attempt. But alas, we were unable to save her, so..."

Hearing Doctor Xiao’s question, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Doctor Niu’s face. After all, for a doctor, the inability to treat a patient and repeatedly asking others for help was somewhat shameful. However, that embarrassment and unease quickly disappeared. Standing before him was not just any doctor, not just a colleague, but a rare traditional Chinese medicine Divine Doctor. Seeking such a person’s help couldn’t be considered too humiliating.

"You all? Do you mean it was your suggestion to seek me out for help?"

Xiao Yi paused for a moment.

"This... Yes, Doctor Xiao, we’ve bothered you over and over again. We are really sorry..."

Hearing Xiao Yi’s questioning, the doctor who had just regained his composure thought that Xiao Yi was dissatisfied with his behavior and immediately became embarrassed again, especially Doctor Niu, who regretted having spoken out earlier to suggest seeking Doctor Xiao’s help.

So it was they who had told Zeng Xiaomei!

From this perspective, although she knew of his medical skills, there were still many things she didn’t know. At least, the worst-case scenario hadn’t occurred!

Listening to the three doctors’ conversation, a wave of overwhelming joy surged in Xiao Yi’s heart. All the way there, he had been on tenterhooks, unsure how Zeng Xiaomei had come to know of his medical expertise—was it because of something he had discovered? But he hadn’t even considered these doctors; after all, the First Affiliated Hospital of Z University was neither too big nor too small. With hundreds of doctors in various departments, he really hadn’t thought it such a coincidence that Zeng Xiaomei would happen to reach out to them.

But upon further thought, he should have considered it. With Zeng Xiaomei’s status, coming to the First Hospital for treatment, she would definitely seek out the best doctors, and these doctors were among the most professional in their respective fields!

"No problem, no problem, haha."

It took Xiao Yi a while to snap back to reality. Seeing the expressions on the three doctors’ faces, he immediately knew they had misunderstood him. He quickly smiled to reassure them. Having said that, a sudden question occurred to him. His complexion changed abruptly, "Doctors, you just said... resuscitation?"

When he said the last two words of resuscitation, Xiao Yi’s voice couldn’t help but tremble.

"Yes, the patient’s injuries are very severe. They have already damaged..."

Doctor Niu nodded, sighed, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes as he was about to describe the patient’s condition to Xiao Yi.

But before he could even start, he was interrupted by Xiao Yi, whose face turned pale as he grabbed Doctor Niu’s hand. "Doctor Niu, quickly tell me, where is the patient?"

Could it be that Xiaoxiao was really hurt?

Sweat began to form in Xiao Yi’s palms.

"Doctor Xiao, this way, this way, follow me. Don’t be nervous, the patient’s injuries are indeed very severe, but after our emergency treatment, their vital signs have temporarily stabilized. I believe you will certainly be able to save them!"

None of the three doctors had expected Xiao Yi to be so anxious, and they could only conclude that he had great compassion in his heart—to hear that the patient was in a serious condition, he was so anxious, even for someone with no relation to him.

As they led Xiao Yi towards the operating room up ahead, they even began to warn themselves internally to be like Doctor Xiao from now on, treating each patient with the same importance as a loved one—doctors should embody benevolence and hold a parental heart.

Zeng Xiaomei, seeing Xiao Yi walking over surrounded by three doctors, was completely dumbfounded. A moment ago when she heard their exclamation, she had snapped out of her reverie. She had been about to greet him, but the unusually enthusiastic response from the three doctors had left her completely stunned.

These three doctors, just a while ago, ignored her, Zeng Family’s young lady and a beautiful woman standing there, but they greeted Xiao Yi as if he were a pilgrim, with reverence that even dedicated fans of big stars wouldn’t exaggerate so much.

Even Dean Chen had stepped forward to meet him.

...Was Xiao Yi’s status really so high in these doctors’ eyes? Could this really be the same obedient young man from a mountain village who had always listened to her scolding?

It wasn’t until Xiao Yi approached, escorted by the three, that she snapped back to her senses. Her eyes, filled with complexity, watched the young man who she had reprimanded several times. Her mouth opened, wanting to say something, but when she did, she found she didn’t know what to say, standing there dumbfounded. (To be continued.
