Chapter 334: Encounter Teacher Wu Again Chapter 334: Encounter Teacher Wu Again “Oh,” Huang Zhilei understood. He had actually learned about it from Cao Yong initially as well.
The elevator dinged open.
The two of them stepped in together; the empty elevator had only them inside.
The elevator ascended and stopped on the second floor, and the doors opened.
Two people waiting for the elevator in front of the doors met eyes with the two inside.
In an instant, Huang Zhilei’s scalp tingled, and his hair stood on end:
Could it be? Had they run into a top hospital executive?!
Compared to his shock, Junior Xie Wanying standing beside him appeared very composed and even smiled. Huang Zhilei was taken aback and turned his head to look at Junior Xie.
Xie Wanying greeted the people in front of her, “Teacher Wu, Senior Cao.”
Upon hearing her call out “Teacher Wu,” both Cao Yong and Huang Zhilei nearly jumped out of their skin, thinking they were hearing things in a dream: What “Teacher Wu”?!
President Wu gave the two men beside him a calm look: Don’t reveal my identity!
Receiving the direct order from the gaze of their superior, Cao Yong and Huang Zhilei felt as if their brains might crash right there: What was going on?!
The two men took a quick glance at President Wu.
President Wu had just returned from outside today. He wasn’t in a white coat nor wearing a work badge, dressed in plain civilian clothes, with a briefcase in his left hand, his attire simple yet stylish.
The leaders of Guoxie Association Hospital were renowned for their rigorous scholarship and simple lifestyles.
Without saying, from his appearance alone, President Wu looked just like an academically inclined teacher.
The question was, had Junior Xie never seen a photo of the President of Guoxie Association Hospital? It was a possibility, since it seemed President Wu’s photo wasn’t hanging anywhere in the hospital.
What was strange was, why did Junior Xie call him “Teacher Wu”? It wasn’t a big deal if she didn’t recognize him, but why address the president as “Teacher Wu”? Since when did the president take Junior Xie as a student?
A confused mess, a series of question marks flashed through Huang Zhilei’s mind, and he had no choice but to see what Senior Cao was thinking.
Cao Yong’s hands were tucked into the pockets of his white coat, his handsome brows slightly furrowed. The eyes that usually held laughter now only contained a complex and profound expression, indicating he was also pondering what had occurred.
“Get in, the elevator won’t wait,” President Wu urged, pulling Cao Yong into the elevator with him.
Anyway, nobody was allowed to escape. That’s what the leader was thinking.
The four of them squeezed into the cramped elevator box, as if each harbored their own secrets.
Standing shoulder to shoulder with Senior Cao and Teacher Wu, Xie Wanying guessed: Senior Cao and Teacher Wu might actually know each other, having attended Guoxie Medical College together, and perhaps they were in frequent contact with the faculty there.
In any case, she never doubted “Teacher Wu’s” identity.
“How is your learning going?” President Wu turned around, playfully winking at her.
“I’m currently interning at General Surgery Department Two,” Xie Wanying updated Teacher Wu on her learning progress, “I just started a few days ago, and yesterday I joined Teacher Tan for an outpatient service, and I learned quite a bit.”
“I’ve heard that your Teacher Tan has taken quite a liking to you as a student now,” President Wu pointed at her with a finger, seemingly praising her.
Hearing the top executive’s words, both Cao Yong and Huang Zhilei felt a bit disgruntled: What’s the matter? When Junior Xie had previously interned at their Neurosurgery Department, hadn’t they liked her as well?
“Teacher Wu, you flatter me,” Xie Wanying responded modestly, “I often get scolded by Teacher Tan.”
Just so, during an outpatient service with Teacher Tan, she had helped him admit the most difficult patient, and as a result, had been chastised by Dr. Xiao Sun.
“The more he criticizes you, the more he likely cares about you,” President Wu said, shaking his head and speaking earnestly.
