Before Su Haikang and Yin Xiuxiu could figure it out, Chi Gui had already naturally turned towards Edmond and said indifferently, "It has nothing to do with the path, but everything to do with the person."
Edmond was momentarily stunned, unable to catch on.
The profundity of Huaxia’s language made him vaguely feel like he was being looked down upon, yet it also seemed as if nothing was amiss?
Chi Gui didn’t waste time on idle chatter, "Let’s go, you should first take a look at the patient’s medical record, and then we can discuss where to begin the surgery."
After speaking, he directly turned and walked towards the attending physician’s ward.
Edmond became excited instantly, no longer preoccupied with the meaning behind those previous words, and eagerly followed Chi Gui.
Discussing the condition with Professor Chi!
If he mentioned this to those people back home, they would be green with envy!
Edmond then recalled when he was abroad, anytime Professor Chi was performing surgery, there was always a large crowd vying to be her assistant.
Whenever someone was chosen, everyone wished they could physically eliminate their rivals through fisticuffs.
Not for any other reason, but because following Professor Chi always meant learning a lot, even if she didn’t utter a single word throughout the procedure; just by observing her operational details, the benefits were immense.
Xia Yong saw Chi Gui and Edmond leave and hesitated for a moment, then also followed behind, preparing to leave.
Su Haikang stopped him, "Xia Yong, think it through! Can you really trust a foreigner that little girl brought in on a whim?"
Xia Yong turned around and gave Su Haikang a cold glance, "At least more trustworthy than you."
He wanted to follow them inside and say something, but after taking just one step, a bodyguard approached and politely asked them to leave.
It was only because Xia Yong had spoken to the door guard earlier that Su Haikang and Yin Xiuxiu were allowed in.
Now that Xia Yong was leaving, the bodyguard naturally would not let them stay in the sanatorium.
Xia Yong followed Chi Gui and Edmond into the attending physician’s room.
The attending physician was discussing another patient’s situation with the nurse, and upon seeing Edmond, he was initially taken aback, then stood up with a shocked expression to shake hands and greet Edmond.
In the presence of outsiders, Edmond resumed an extremely arrogant demeanor, giving a cursory handshake to the attending physician before naturally taking a seat in his chair.
Xia Yong was startled.
They had been in the sanatorium for two days and had naturally come to understand the place somewhat, knowing that this attending physician was also the head of the sanatorium.
Ordinarily, besides the doctors and nurses, even some of the patients were very polite to the attending physician.
But what was the deal with this foreigner?
Before he could even react, he saw the physician whose seat was taken not only without a hint of displeasure but actually eager to hand over Xia Ling’s medical record to Edmond, then naturally stood aside. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
He looked towards Chi Gui, still unsettled.
Chi Gui hesitated for a moment, then slightly nodded his head, "Sorry, my memory hasn’t been very good lately, I forgot to introduce him to you. This is Edmond, as for the rest... there’s too much, you’re better off just searching him up on Baidu."
Someone can’t be introduced in just a sentence or two?
Xia Yong opened the browser with some confusion and typed in Edmond—
Xia Yong emotionlessly closed the browser.
He finally understood why Chi Gui could so boldly refuse Academician Wu.
The long list of honors and awards on Baidu Baike nearly blinded him!
"He might need a little more time here," Chi Gui checked his phone, "I need to take care of some business, you should go back to the ward too. Once the surgical plan is confirmed, the attending physician will come and inform you."
Xia Yong knew that staying was pointless, so he carefully greeted the attending physician and Edmond before returning to the ward.
His wife, Su Niannian, and Mrs. Su had guessed something, seeing Xia Yong enter with a somber face, all three felt a bit heavy-hearted.
"It’s okay, treating Xia Ling is the most important thing," Xia Yong’s wife comforted him, "Even if the Su family gets the better of us this time, someone as capable as you will surpass them sooner or later."
Xia Yong slowly glanced at the three people in the ward and took a deep breath.
