Chapter 796: Chapter 796 Participation in the Rescue Chapter 796: Chapter 796 Participation in the Rescue The next day, Lu Ningzhou summoned his trusted associates and gave them their orders.
On the third day, the partners received money from Lu Ningzhou, who wasn’t one to be trifled with. He instructed his people to deduct medical expenses and all other applicable fees before completing the equity transfer procedures, officially making Luo Qiao his partner.
Like Xiao Jingyu and Zuo Lan, Luo Qiao only invested and didn’t engage in management. However, she said she would provide a few sets of design drawings every quarter if she had time, and of course, that would be charged separately.
Now her designs that she had drawn in the space finally found their stage. Lu Ningzhou re-applied for a trademark for the clothing designed for Luo Qiao and named it ‘Si Jin’.
Time passed like flowing water, and before they knew it, the end of the semester had arrived. Luo Qiao’s gains for the semester could certainly be described as plentiful. Professor Chang, recognizing her outstanding performance, suggested she rotate through all the departments.
As such, Luo Qiao reported to the obstetrics department after her final exams were over, beginning a two-month internship.
With the new semester starting, Luo Qiao set a goal for herself: she wanted to take the end-of-term exams with the seniors in their fourth year and was preparing to skip another grade.
During her obstetrics internship, without Professor Chang’s preferential treatment, she had to start learning from the midwives and even do nursing work when there was a staff shortage, which could be exhausting after a shift.
Lu Yichen couldn’t bear to see her so worn out. Often, Rong Daniang would prepare delicious food at home, and Lu Yichen would pick it up and deliver it, feeding Luo Qiao. Sometimes when Lu Yichen wasn’t busy, he would even come to pick her up after work.
She certainly didn’t lack for the envy and jealousy of her fellow interns.
Luo Qiao indeed had a gift for medicine, adapting quickly to whichever department she was in, not only applying what she learned but also making connections beyond the material. Moreover, during peak times when there weren’t enough midwives, she could independently complete deliveries, earning nothing but admiration.
Later, she spent another week on the operating table assisting the lead surgeon. Her capable and steady hands earned her high praise from the chief physicians, so after two months, she took her glowing internship reviews and went straight to her internal medicine internship.
Thanks to Yang Jiancheng and Professor Chang, plus Luo Qiao’s prudent and generous way of doing things, she got along well with everyone, no matter the department she was in.
When the new semester started, Luo Qiao finished all the tests for her third-year subjects during the midterms and began reviewing the courses for the second half of the third year. By this time, she had transferred to her surgical internship.
One day, the school urgently mobilized third and fourth-year students to an emergency relief mission eighty miles from Capital City. Luo Qiao was among those called up, with only half an hour given for preparation.
First, Luo Qiao called the department at the hospital where she was interning to ask for leave before hurriedly returning to her dorm to pack quickly.
Within the allotted time, she reached the assembly point, where there was also a public telephone. She first called Rong Daniang to inform her about the situation.
Then she tried to call Lu Yichen at his office but unfortunately was told he had gone out on a case. Luo Qiao left a message with the colleague who had answered, asking them to relay the information.
After hanging up, she heard the team leader starting to instruct everyone to line up for roll call and boarding the vehicles.
Because of the urgency, their trucks, ensuring safety, hurried at the fastest speed possible toward the site of the incident. It was, after all, not the smooth asphalt roads of the future, and the road was filled with potholes of all sizes.
Many people vomited from the rough ride of the truck. Luo Qiao was no exception, and after two hours, the vehicles could go no further, requiring everyone to disembark and proceed on foot.
Fortunately, Luo had made a backpack at home, taking with her only what was light and manageable to carry, which made walking a bit easier. The other students had a harder time because the difficult path was made even more challenging with their hands full.
After another half hour of walking, they finally arrived. It turned out that a large factory had exploded during production, causing partial collapse of nearby factory buildings and residential areas.
The local workers’ hospital was severely understaffed. So in addition to urgently requesting medical personnel from neighboring hospitals to assist, they also submitted an application to higher authorities, and that’s how Luo Qiao’s school received the notification.
