34 Facade Falls (1/2)
Director Zhang Da's Private Room
Li Xiuying: ”Your surgery was completed in 20 minutes, I've written a care plan which your doctor will enforce.”
Director Zhang was astounded.
A surgery that usually takes most surgeons 60-90 minutes to complete was completed in 20 minutes?
Director Zhang asked in hope: ”Will you be managing my care?”
Li Xiuying: ”No, the orthopedic team will take over. Any other questions?”
Director Zhang shook his head, slightly disheartened that he won't be under Dr. Li's care.
Li Xiuying: ”Please ensure you fulfill our earlier agreement.”
Director Zhang: ”Yes I'll ensure Li Yu Yan is accepted onto the normal 5 years medical programme and will be treated like every other medical student.”
Li Xiuying: ”When will she get her acceptance letter?”
Director Zhang: ”We start sending the first batch of acceptance letters in the first week of February, we send both an email and a hard copy through the post.”
Li Xiuying: ”She will most likely contact you soon.”
Director Zhang his voice taking on a slightly sinister tone as he thought about Li Yu Yan: ”Don't worry I know what to do.”
Li Xiuying didn't say anything more; she stood up and left the room. She was already in her street wear as she made her way up to collect Little 4th.
Many staff walked past Li Xiuying, they were initially going to greet her but when they saw her deep in thought with a look of concentration they decided not to disturb her.
They all assumed that she must be thinking about something important. Probably a new invention or a seriously ill patient.
If they only knew what she was really thinking about...
Li Xiuying was thinking about what to have for lunch.
Maybe hotpot for lunch, I've always seen people enjoying a hotpot together.
...
Hospital Entrance
Li Xiuying, Little 4th and Qin Jingfei had decided to go to the hotpot restaurant.
Li Xiuying: ”It has good reviews.”
Little 4th cutely replied: ”I'm happy with whatever you choose Big Sister YingYing.”
Qin Jingfei grumbled: ”Let's get a move on, I'm starving. I didn't even get to eat a proper breakfast and I've been running around the hospital all day.”
Li Xiuying pointed to her left: ”This way.”
As they were about to cross the road a car came and stopped in front of them.
The back passenger window was down and Ren Shirong popped his head out.
Ren Shirong: ”Xiuying! Its uncle, where are you going?”
Li Xiuying: ”Lunch.”
Ren Shirong: ”What a coincidence, I was also on my way to lunch,”
Li Xiuying: ”Alone.”
I already have to deal with Qin Jingfei and her incessant chatter; I can't deal with Ren Shirong as well.
Ren Shirong: ”That's fine, you 3 can sit at one table and I'll sit at the table next to you.”
Want to escape? Not happening!
Ren Shirong had been trying to contact Li Xiuying since yesterday; he wanted to discuss the bank situation. Xǔ Junjie and Sima Hwei-ru were constantly harassing him to set up a meeting with Li Xiuying.
Li Xiuying: ”...”
Qin Jingfei's phone started ringing. She looked at the screen, it was her husband. A sudden realization struck her, launching her into a panic: ”Oh No! I completely forgot I had to pick up my family from the airport.”
Qin Jingfei turned to Li Xiuying: ”Dr. Li, Little 4th I have to go.” She then ran towards a taxi that had just dropped some people off.
Little 4th was laughing with glee on the inside as he watched Qin Jingfei run like a maniac.
He he he, I'll have more time with Sister YingYing now that cousin Jingfei gone.
