Chapter 789: [789] The doctor is really busy Chapter 789: [789] The doctor is really busy But no one has the right to stop Mother Yaxi from getting pregnant and having another child, not even a doctor.
Song Xueling touched the patient’s bed and felt the mattress was warm; the patient must not have left long ago. She looked up and asked, “Does she know anyone in the hospital?”
Xie Wanying suddenly remembered the first day when Li Yaxi wanted to find her classmate, Lin Hao.
In the second-floor ward, the roommate had gone out for a walk, leaving only Wu Lixuan to feed the young girl, Ma Yunli, her evening porridge.
Unable to sit up and eat, Ma Yunli tilted her head carefully to sip the porridge when suddenly she said towards the door and to Sister Wu, “Someone’s coming.”
Wu Lixuan put down the spoon and turned around. A girl she didn’t recognize was standing at the door, so all she could do was ask, “Who are you?”
Without answering her question, Ya Xi walked straight into the ward, her face emotionless and her eyes hollow as she approached.
The young girl, Ma Yunli, felt fear and gripped Sister Wu’s hand tightly.
“Who are you looking for?” Wu Lixuan asked again, preparing to press the call bell to summon a nurse.
“Don’t press it,” Ya Xi told her, pulling a fruit knife from her clothing with her right hand.
Ma Yunli, lying in the hospital bed, trembled, “Sister!”
Wu Lixuan held the young girl’s hand, “It’s okay, I’m here.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not here to kill you,” Ya Xi said, seeing their panic and gripping the knife tighter.
Wu Lixuan addressed the other girl, “Put the knife down. Whatever it is, I’ll help you solve it. Are you short on money?”
“I don’t lack money,” she came from a wealthy family.
This person wasn’t here for a robbery, Wu Lixuan wondered, “What do you want?”
“I want my mother to come here, and Doctor Lin,” Ya Xi said.
Was Doctor Lin the classmate and friend of hers, Doctor Lin Hao? Wu Lixuan had to consider the risks of calling Lin Hao over.
Ya Xi continued, “I know he’s here; he doesn’t leave until after six.”
Clearly, she had been secretly following Lin Hao for some time. Wu Lixuan took out her phone, “What’s your mother’s number? I’ll call her for you.”
“I’ve texted my mum. I’ve told her she’ll bear the consequences if she doesn’t come,” Ya Xi said.
“What do you want to do by asking them to come here?” Wu Lixuan cautiously tried to gauge her intentions.
“No one cares about me,” Ya Xi said with a voice filled with sorrow and anger. Turning her gaze to Ma Yunli, she almost gasped for breath, “Why does he care about you and not about me!”
Faced with her terrifying gaze, Ma Yunli was so scared she couldn’t speak, and the heart rate monitor started to beep erratically.
Wu Lixuan thought she must have been triggered by something and tried to console her, “Don’t think like that. They will care about you. There must be something urgent that momentarily prevented them from attending to you.”
“I know, it’s your friend who brought her here, making him care for her. What about me?” As Ya Xi spoke, tears threatened to fall. She didn’t know what she had done wrong that made Lin Hao prefer to care for Ma Yunli instead of her.
The girl might have been a patient from her friend’s department. Wu Lixuan believed her friend, as a doctor, would never favor one patient over another, “You need to understand the doctors; they’re busy figuring out how to treat you.”
“No, they don’t care about me; they only listen to my mother. And my mother doesn’t want me anymore, fine, I’ll die right now for her to see,” Ya Xi shouted, her eyes brimming with desperate sorrow as she raised the fruit knife in her hand. After all, everyone had been saying she was going to die.
