Chapter 395: [395] Being held back by a senior Chapter 395: [395] Being held back by a senior Notify their teacher? Xie Wanying and Lau Jingyun were startled: they had never intended to become famous for their silent good deeds.
Uncle police tapped their heads with his pen, playing the caring elder, “Of course, we need to notify your teachers. What if something happened to you?” Turning his head, he asked Doctor Wei, “Doctor, do you think either of them is injured?”
Whether the students were injured was very important, involving three aspects: the school, parents, and social impact.
This reminded Doctor Wei. Doctor Wei’s sharp professional gaze swept over the blood on their clothing. It was hard to say at this stage whether it was all the patient’s blood or not. To be safe, Doctor Wei said, “I will have them stay in the ER overnight for observation. They can leave only if they’re alright.”
Medical mentors must take good care of their juniors in the field.
Having heard from their mentor and the caring words of Uncle Police, Xie Wanying and Lau Jingyun thought: The elders really do take good care of them.
“We’re not injured,” the two hoped Uncle Police and Doctor Wei would be reassured.
“The scene was chaotic, it was unclear who hit whom,” Doctor Wei became more convinced of his thoughts, “A doctor cannot just let you go, we have to be responsible.”
He Xiangyu, who had returned from making a call, heard this from behind the partition and wanted to take off. But she couldn’t just abandon her senior and junior sister to escape alone, so she had to come back and gather the three of them together.
“What to do? What if we sneak out quietly?” He Xiangyu suggested a bad idea to the others.
Xie Wanying thought it was not feasible. Uncle Police had mentioned they needed to give statements, and it would be found out where they came from, potentially making things worse.
“Let Senior Kang take us away?” He Xiangyu proposed a tentative idea; Kang Mingzhu was easy to talk to, right?
“Do you think Senior Kang could handle it if she came?” Lau Jingyun lacked confidence in Kang Mingzhu. She knew Kang Mignzhu’s character; it was that of a recent graduate who couldn’t hold her ground in serious situations.
“Shall we call Senior Yoo? But we aren’t close with Senior Yoo,” He Xiangyu said anxiously.
When considering their relationship with the seniors on the clinical side, aside from a very few like Kang Mingzhu, they rarely interacted socially, apart from academics.
“I’ve had a drink,” He Xiangyu covered her mouth again, regretting not listening to her senior and junior sister from the start and drinking too much. She really didn’t want the teachers to find out. Once the teacher arrived, they’d definitely smell the alcohol on her breath and take her aside for a talk first, and she might end up with more than just a written apology.
On hearing this, Xie Wanying and Lau Jingyun worried she’d be punished, so it was best to find a teacher who was understanding and easy to talk to handle the situation.
“What if I call Senior Cao?” Xie Wanying thought it over and over, and it seemed only the gentle Senior Cao was left to help them out.
Senior Cao? Lau Jingyun and He Xiangyu’s eyes lit up.
Exactly. Senior Cao had clout at both the school and the hospital. With Senior Cao backing them, they could return without any damage to their reputations.
It just so happened that Senior Cao had once been her junior sister’s driver. He might actually be able to help them out. Lau Jingyun and He Xiangyu eagerly grabbed their junior sister, “Yes, call him quickly!”
Now the time was close to 1 a.m. Xie Wanying dialed the phone with a very nervous heart, bothering her senior brother who might have been asleep.
Click, to her surprise, the person on the other end picked up the phone within three seconds. Xie Wanying’s heart pounded furiously, as if it might leap out of her chest in an instant.
“Yingying, what’s up so late?” Cao Yong asked.
“Senior Brother, you haven’t gone to bed yet?”
