Chapter 462: [462] How does the doctor sister coax the child? Chapter 462: [462] How does the doctor sister coax the child? “An envelope?” Huang Zhilei immediately snapped his head back, amused by the child. Where did this kid pull an envelope out of someone’s pocket?
It’s rare to keep an envelope in a trouser pocket. Unless you’ve just received some mail. But nowadays, there are so many ways to communicate, and fewer people write letters. With so many people carrying mobile phones in the hospital, why bother with the antiquated ‘carrier pigeon’ method?
Xiao Yazhi had no idea she was facing a neurosurgery expert, her little eyes staring straight at the neurosurgeon uncle, unknowingly about to have another secret coaxed out of her.
“This isn’t your patient, is it, Cao Yong?” Zhu Huicang, who happened to pass by and see the scene, stuck his head out and asked his old classmate.
Wasn’t it obvious? His patient was the one lying on that operating table.
“Whose patient are you teasing?” Zhu Huicang turned his head and saw Xie Wanying not far away, “Oh, hers–”
At this moment, Xie Wanying vaguely sensed something amiss. It couldn’t be that she and her child had just bumped into the very person at Doctor Zhang’s office: oh no, please let it not be so.
Everyone else noticed the complicated expression she tried to hide on her face, and they began to speculate what was going on.
“Hey, is Dr. Xie here?” A doctor hurried along the corridor, seemingly in search of Xie Wanying.
“What do you need her for?” Cao Yong turned around and asked.
The person saw Cao Yong and immediately stood still, “Dr. Cao.”
“What’s the matter, speak up,” Zhu Huicang also asked.
The person replied, “They said Dr. Xie is good at comforting children. They want her help.”
Turns out that four-year-old girl was still crying.
“How did she comfort her?” Zhu Huicang asked curiously, as he and Cao Yong hadn’t known about the previous events.
The person balked for a moment: they said the child thought Dr. Xie was beautiful.
Huang Zhilei, who knew the whole story, couldn’t contain his laughter.
“How could it be!” Zhu Huicang, understanding the situation, pointed at Huang Zhilei, “You go!”
Good-looking guys and pretty sisters both have a strong impact on kids.
“I can’t do it, Senior Zhu.” Huang Zhilei turned back with crossed arms.
Being handsome doesn’t necessarily mean you can soothe children. Huang Zhilei was well aware of this.
Cao Yong laughed, patted his junior sister’s shoulder, and said, “I’ll accompany you to see.”
He left his junior to finish the pre-surgery preparations with the anesthetist.
Seeing that Senior Cao was also going to help, Xie Wanying took Xiao Yazhi with her to follow.
The four-year-old girl had congenital heart disease, a patent ductus arteriosus. She had tried interventional surgery, but when it failed, she had no choice but to turn to surgery. If this child were deferred any longer and developed pulmonary hypertension, there would be no chance of treatment.
For a girl, once she developed pulmonary hypertension, she most likely wouldn’t be able to have children in the future. Therefore, her parents were very anxious.
It’s unclear whether it was the parents’ influence on the child, but although she was a girl, she had quite a volatile temper.
Zhu Huicang, who followed, remembered this little patient from the department and cautioned, “Be careful. She likes to throw things.”
No sooner had he spoken than as the group reached the door of the operating room, they suddenly saw a dark shape flying towards them. Cao Yong quickly pushed Xie Wanying aside, while also scooping up the six-year-old Yazhi to dodge the projectile.
The group ducked and saw a plush teddy bear lying on the ground, likely a prop the nurses used to stop the child from crying.
Immediately after, the voice of Zhou Junpeng, both angry and helpless with the child, came from inside the room, “You threw it, it’s your toy, why did you throw it? Don’t you want to play with it anymore?”
