The day senior fellow student Li was discharged from the hospital, it was said to be quite lively. Teacher Lu also came. A group of people crowded in the ward, chatting enthusiastically.
Not long after, the attending doctor arrived with others, performing the final discharge check and giving the discharge instructions to the patient.
Li Xiaobing, holding her son, expressed her sincere gratitude to her husbandās colleagues and said to her son: "Thank Uncle Fu, let him hold you. He saved your life."
Hearing his motherās words, Xiao Liangliang widened his small eyes and looked at Uncle Fuās face. At that moment, the little guy seemed to recall some nightmare and suddenly burst into tears.
"Why is this child crying?" Teacher Lu exclaimed in surprise, asking the child, "What is it? Is this uncle not good to you?"
Yes, this Uncle Fu had once tickled Xiao Liangliangās little feet. Xiao Liangliang was crying and complaining.
"Itās not like that." Li Xiaobing was extremely embarrassed by her sonās exaggerated reaction and apologized to Fu Xinheng while comforting her child, "Doctor Fu, Iām sorry. He is afraid of strangers."
Fu Xinheng squinted at the crying child, not minding at all, and didnāt even like holding children. Xiao Liangliangās crying was just as well.
Doctors treat patients regardless of their age, but it doesnāt mean that all doctors have to like children.
In contrast, Doctor Huās discharge went unnoticed by anyone; it was quiet. She wasnāt unhappy; on the contrary, she was overjoyed. Too happy to want to disturb others, she decided to enjoy a candlelight dinner with her husband in peace.
The joy came from the deepest part of the patientās heart. After surgery, Doctor Huās eyesight recovered to half of its healthy state, which for her was a great surprise. Wearing glasses, she couldnāt return to the surgery table but could go back to the outpatient department and continue contributing. In other words, she could still be a doctor.
She was so thrilled she almost cried but held back the tears, wiping her face dry. Having packed her discharge belongings, she left the hospital, hand in hand with her husband, Mr. Liu. When they were outside the building and getting into a vehicle, she received a message from a friend, and promptly sent a short message to Xie Wanying:
"Thank you, Dr. Xie. I promised Iād help you find out about that matter, and now Iāve found some clues."
During her lunch break, receiving this message from Teacher Hu left Xie Wanying astounded.
She hadnāt told Teacher Hu about her motherās matters because she didnāt want to trouble an unrelated senior with her concerns.
Teacher Hu was persistent about her affairs, possibly from a sense of justice or perhaps as an act of gratitude to Xie Wanying. Secretly, Doctor Hu contacted Aunt Min and directly obtained her motherās story.
Since the senior took action, Xie Wanying called to thank her personally: "Teacher Hu, thank you."
"No need for formalities," Doctor Hu straightforwardly shared information with her, "Iām asking you, do you know a person named Liu Sugu?"
Liu Sugu. Xie Wanying pondered repeatedly, confirming she had never heard this name before.
"Teacher Hu, Liu Sugu isā" Could it be the person who took her motherās admission spot?
This matter needed to be started from the beginning. Doctor Hu carefully explained the ins and outs.
Back then, her mother wanted to study at the local health school. Sun Rongfang had an elementary school education, and no matter how good her self-study grades were, she could only be recommended to study at a health school at most.
The recommended list was submitted, but the person finalizing the list was not from the recommending committee.
