Chapter 396: [(396)] Call elder schoolmate for help Chapter 396: [(396)] Call elder schoolmate for help Doctors have long grown accustomed to being startled awake by a sudden phone call in the middle of the night. As soon as his phone rang and he saw it was his junior calling, Cao Yong immediately picked up. When had his junior ever initiated a call to him? This was the first time, and it was in the dead of night; he knew without a doubt that something serious must have happened to his junior.
“I’m not asleep, tell me, what’s the matter?” Cao Yong’s voice on the phone was quite stern.
Xie Wanying started to feel a bit scared, mainly afraid of not being able to cover up the fact that her second senior sister had drunk too much.
Helplessly, the two senior sisters behind her were pushing her: Hurry up and speak, there’s no other choice, we need to go back!
“It’s , senior brother, I’m at the emergency department of Xuanwu Hospital with two senior sisters. Something has happened tonight, and we can only trouble you to come over–” Xie Wanying cautiously phrased her words to avoid provoking anyone.
However, her words evidently still managed to provoke the usually gentle Senior Cao. From the other end came a commanding voice: “Stay right there! I’m coming over right now!”
Since when had Senior Cao’s tone been so terrifying? Xie Wanying’s hand holding the phone didn’t dare to move, she just heard a click on the other side as the call was hung up, unclear if the always-smiling Senior Cao was angry or not.
“How did it go?” the two senior sisters asked as they tugged on her sleeve.
“Senior brother said he’s on his way.” Xie Wanying said.
The two senior sisters were overjoyed: “That’s great, we can go back now.”
Why were her senior sisters so optimistic? She could tell from the tone of Senior Cao on the phone that he was not very pleased.
Cao Yong: Hearing someone was in emergency, how could he be pleased?! He was about to explode!
Sitting back on the cold bench, Xie Wanying fiddled with her phone, her heart hanging as uneasily as a bucket suspended in a well.
Doo-doo–Senior Cao called back. Xie Wanying answered the phone, pressing it closely to her ear to listen carefully: “Senior brother?”
“I’m on the road, driving fast and will arrive soon. Tell me clearly, how are you all now? Are you injured?” After the initial urgency, Cao Yong calmly asked in detail.
“Not hurt, is that right? Okay, stay put and don’t move. Wait for me to get there, got it?” Cao Yong’s voice lowered on the last sentence, soothing his junior sister.
“Yes–” Xie Wanying nodded.
She and her senior sisters definitely did not dare to move now; if they even managed to anger Senior Cao, they would have no one else to turn to for help.
With no traffic late at night, Cao Yong drove fast and arrived at the entrance of the Xuanwu emergency department in about half an hour.
As soon as his car arrived, people from inside the emergency department of Xuanwu Hospital came out.
Leading the group at the entrance, Doctor Wei identified Cao Yong by sight: “Are you Doctor Cao Yong from Guoxie?”
Stepping out of the car with a jacket in his arms, Cao Yong quickly ascended the steps to the emergency department entrance and answered the other person: “I am.”
“I’m Wei Guoyuan from the surgery department of Xuanwu Hospital.” Doctor Wei extended his hand as he spoke.
Cao Yong shook hands with him, saying: “My junior sister called me, saying they were in your emergency department.”
“Oh.” Actually, Doctor Wei had already guessed as much when he saw Cao Yong appear. With an indescribable smile, he said, “We’ve been asking about the three of them for quite some time, and they were always hesitant to say which medical college they belonged to. I suspected they were afraid of being scolded by their teachers.”
The junior sisters were afraid of being scolded, and Cao Yong’s expression darkened: only those who have something to hide fear reprimand.
Thankfully, his junior sister remembered to call him, her senior brother. Cao Yong’s heart felt a mix of complicated emotions.
“The three of them are from your Guoxie? Your junior sisters? No wonder they could handle so many patients on the scene.” Doctor Wei said with a note of admiration, especially impressed by Xie Wanying’s ability to recall the treatment process at the scene.
