Midway through her walk, she heard a call from behind. Xie Wanying turned around to find that, unbeknownst to her, she had been followed by a girl with a round face and a ponytail, who appeared quite adorable. The girl had an intern badge on.
“I’m a student of Clinical Surgery from the 96 Class. My name is Fan Yunyun. I’ve long heard of Senior Sister Xie’s great reputation. Witnessing Senior Sister Xie’s technique just now has strengthened my determination to learn from you and become an outstanding female surgeon as well. I started my internship here in Hepatobiliary Surgery today. Could I learn from you in a clinical setting from now on?” The girl introduced herself fluently.
He Xiangyu poked Xie Wanying’s shoulder excitedly right away: You’ve got a fan!
Xie Wanying felt slightly bewildered. She was just an intern learning from the teachers, how could someone learn from her?
“Is that all right?” Fan Yunyun asked with her large round eyes fixed on her.
“I’m also in the middle of learning. If you have academic questions that you want to discuss with someone, we can certainly learn from and exchange with each other.” Xie Wanying was sincere and warmhearted, so she made things clear to the girl, “As for the internship plan, it’s best to follow the teachers’ arrangements.”
After listening to her, Fan Yunyun sighed, “Senior Sister Xie, you’re just as humble as everyone says.”
“How come you decided to do your internship in Hepatobiliary Surgery?” He Xiangyu took an interest in getting to know the new fan for her junior sister, “Is it just you from your class coming here?”
“Not just me; several of us from the class came as a group. But I’m particularly interested in Senior Sister Xie, so I came to find her alone,” Fan Yunyun explained.
“It’s fine if you want to learn from her. But bear in mind, she’s a study maniac; prepare yourself mentally,” warned He Xiangyu, with her hands on her hips, as she gave the fan a heads-up about her idol’s intense side.
“I know, I will definitely work very hard,” said Fan Yunyun, clenching her fist with determination.
Here comes another cute junior sister, He Xiangyu thought, and she laughed heartily, looking up: “Let’s all have dinner together tonight.” She wanted to introduce Senior Sister’s new fan to their junior sister.
“Thank you, Senior Sister,” Fan Yunyun expressed her gratitude towards He Xiangyu and continued to show concern about whether she could follow Xie Wanying in her studies, asking, “Senior Sister Xie, do you have any students?”
“No. I’m just a student myself,” Xie Wanying answered.
What she hadn’t expected was that she’d spoken too soon.
Before closing time, a group of them returned to Tao Zhijie’s office.
Qiu Ruiyun was standing, reporting the performance of the new interns from the afternoon session.
Tao Zhijie listened attentively, while he had He Guangyou, who was sitting beside him, arrange where this group of interns would go. This batch of interns would mostly be divided among other doctors for mentoring. His group was special; he only took on certain students.
When Tao Zhijie got the gist of it, he turned towards Junior Xie Wanying: “Yingying.”
Xie Wanying replied, “Yes?”
“I know you’re here,” Tao Zhijie chuckled, his laughing eyes looking her way alongside Song Xueling.
There was something off in Tao Zhijie’s gaze. Song Xueling became internally alerted.
“The surgery you and Doctor Song performed today went smoothly, right?” Tao Zhijie commented on the day’s performance by the two.
“Um–” Xie Wanying felt uneasy answering this question; she and Doctor Song had indeed worked well together, but “it’s mainly because Senior Tao was there, so we weren’t scared.”
That didn’t seem to have much to do with him. Tao Zhijie was grinning from ear to ear: “Doctor Song probably doesn’t feel the same way as you.”
Did Doctor Song think she hadn’t done well as the First Assistant? Xie Wanying immediately turned to ask the Chief Surgeon, ready to learn from her mistakes.
