Then he spoke, "You’ve all misunderstood. Su Haikang did indeed want to use the doctors he found to threaten me into compromise, but at the critical moment, Sister Chi brought in an even better doctor, who really slapped them in the face! Now, that foreign doctor is reviewing Xia Ling’s past medical records and diagnoses with the attending physician."
This development was simply too unexpected.
Su Niannian and the others were all a bit stunned.
After a while, Xia Yong’s wife asked, "How, how impressive is that doctor?"
Xia Yong said, "So impressive that even I had to call on Sister Chi and curse."
Xia Yong was in his forties this year, more than twenty years older than Chi Gui, always known for being mild-mannered and good-tempered, and even when pushed to the brink by the Su Family, he never really swore.
This comparison was vivid and graphic, and the people in the room instantly understood just how impressive that was.
"Who is it?" Su Niannian, also a medical student, couldn’t help but ask with some curiosity.
Xia Yong revealed Edmond’s name and added, "I can’t really explain; you’d better look him up on Baidu to get the information quicker."
"It’s that mysterious?" Xia Yong’s wife muttered as she and Su Niannian pulled out their phones to search for Edmond on Baidu.
Xia Yong watched their expressions turn to utter shock and felt slightly satisfied within.
He wasn’t going to be the only one stunned into silence!
After informing Edmond, Chi Gui left the attending physician’s room and took the elevator straight to the top floor.
She effortlessly pushed open the door to the director’s office, where Academician Wu, who had just left, was sitting on the sofa with a pot of tea and two cups on the coffee table.
Hearing the noise, Academician Wu looked up, and upon seeing Chi Gui, his stern face immediately broke into a smile.
He warmly beckoned to Chi Gui, "Miss Chi, come in, come in. I’ve already brewed the Biluochun tea you love."
Chi Gui entered, politely greeted Academician Wu, then sat opposite him, picked up a cup of tea, sipped it, and smiled in appreciation, "This is indeed fine tea; thank you, Teacher."
Academician Wu smiled too but just as he was about to say something, Chi Gui’s expression turned serious, "However, shouldn’t you explain why you helped the Su Family threaten others?"
Seeing Chi Gui get serious, Academician Wu touched his nose and his eyes shifted uneasily, "This... it’s a misunderstanding..."
Chi Gui said, "Hmm, I’m listening."
Academician Wu realized he couldn’t dodge the topic, cleared his throat, and said, "It’s rather embarrassing to say, but a long time ago, before I was part of the Expert Group, I owed Old Sir Su a favor. This time, his descendant came to me, mentioning a misunderstanding with his ex-wife’s family, saying that they were no longer on speaking terms, but his ex-wife fell seriously ill, so he hoped I would go treat her, which would also help resolve the misunderstanding with her family."
"To that end," Academician Wu continued with righteous fervor, looking at Chi Gui, "I’ve been so engrossed in my research lately that I hadn’t paid any attention to external affairs. Hearing their story, I thought it would be good to assist the patient. As for the misunderstanding... that’s their family issue, and I didn’t feel it was appropriate for me to inquire. Little did I know..."
He stopped there, feeling that he had nearly been complicit in wrongdoing, too embarrassed to continue.
Just as I thought... Chapters first released on noveⅼfire.net
Her teacher was truly married to the field of medicine, dedicating his entire life to it, solving numerous medical challenges for Huaxia and all of humanity. The affordable treatment for cerebral infarction he developed could even be used by ordinary patients.
But because of his deep immersion in research, he was virtually inept in interpersonal relationships.
Though given his status, people generally didn’t dare deceive him...
"The Su Family really isn’t anything good," Chi Gui calmly assessed, with her dark almond eyes slightly narrowed.
Even using her teacher—this arrogance was a bit too much.
