Thankfully, Lu Ke's mother was a sensible person. She pulled Lu Hui away and whispered into his ear. "Ke Er is being foolish with Lu Qin, but why are you encouraging that? Plus this girl looks quite capable, or else the other doctors would not have allowed her to handle this surgery! Ke Er is lying on the operating table so why are you going around offending the doctor. Our daughter is going to suffer if she decides to take revenge." Mrs. Lu was counting on her daughter to raise their family status within the Lu Family. They couldn't rely on Lu Ke's cousin, Lu Qin forever.
"She wouldn't dare." Lu Hui looked imposing but he listened to his wife. In the end, he could only glare at Mo Li. As unwilling as he was, he left.
The nurses didn't expect Mo Li to be able to deal with the Lu Family. After the family left, they were impressed by Mo Li. They were close to bowing down to her.
"Why are you all standing there for? Hurry up and prepare for the operation." Mo Li ordered. She hadn't performed surgery on a living person for quite some time already. She was quite excited.
"Of course, Doctor Mo." The nurses quickly obliged. Mo Li was pretty and talented, she was also a genius doctor.
A girl lay on the operating table. She had long chestnut-colored hair that framed her oval-shaped face. She had the girl next door appearance. Mo Li entered the theatre and met the girl's pair of big round eyes.
This was the first time Mo Li met Lu Ke. This was also her first time operating on a living person after her transmigration.
Mo Li was impressed by the girl's stupidity. Even if she wanted to target Mo Li, why would she use her own health to do that? What if Mo Li was not a good doctor?
Even though this was their first meeting, Mo Li was not unfamiliar with Lu Ke. Lu Ke was an easily-influenced person. It was why she would be dumb enough to follow Lu Qin's order to risk her own health to come after Mo Li. In the original book, Lu Qin and Lu Ke's target was Qiao Qing. When she was at Pearl River, Lu Ke hit it off immediately with the original Mo Li. The evil within them resonated with each other. Lu Ke was completely charmed by Mo Li. In fact, Lu Ke was influenced by Mo Li to turn on Lu Qin. Mo Li had her drive a car to run into Lu Qin.
Mo Li studied Lu Ke's face and she was certain Quan Yu wouldn't fall for her. He was not a kid, and this girl looked just like a high school student. Then again... Mo Li was an actual high school student.
"Anesthesiologist, please start your work." Mo Li put on her gloves, her beautiful eyes calm and wise.
To her surprise, Lu Ke turned to her and she uttered with provocation, "So you're the legendary Mo Li?"
Mo Li was stunned. Does she know me?
Satisfied with Mo Li's reaction, Lu Ke continued, "Brother Yu and I are childhood sweethearts, no one can come between us. I have moved to Pearl River for many years already, but he still misses me."
Mo Li went along with her so that Lu Ke would cooperate. She was her patient after all. Mo Li was also confused by this Lu Ke. Why was she taunting her surgeon?
Mo Li had the nurses prepare the surgical instruments.
Even though Lu Ke could only see half of Mo Li's face, it was enough to make her go crazy with jealousy. Mo Li's face was exceptionally beautiful. Furthermore, Mo Li didn't act crazily as Lu Ke expected when she brought up Quan Yu. Mo Li didn't even react, not even with a twitch of her brows.
Cousin said that it is because of this woman that Brother Yu didn't come to find me even though he has arrived at Pearl River!
Lu Ke taunted again, "Brother Yu comes to Pearl River for me so stop bugging him, you slut!" Everyone in the theatre heard her clearly... well, everyone but one.
Mo Li was too busy preparing the operation to notice. Mo Li raised her head to look at Lu Ke. "I'm sorry but did you say something earlier? I was discussing stuff with the anesthesiologist, so I didn't hear you clearly."
Damn it! She must be doing it on purpose. Despite her anger, Lu Ke's consciousness gradually faded away thanks to the drugs.
This was a small surgery and it went smoothly.. This was no problem at all for Mo Li.
