124 In times of need (1/2)

' Donkey???!' Everyone in the room looked at this kid as if he was an idiot. Xia Lian's lips noticeably twitched, but in the end all she did say was, ” I would obviously love to get some help.”

The twin patted his chest proudly and declared ” Honorable doctor, I will be back in a moment. With us twins here, you can be at ease. You just take a rest!” The other twin had a gloomy face though, since when did he get involved?!

Whereas He Chun cried silent tears due to his apprentice behaving like a puppy wagging its tail in front of this young kid. ' Who exactly is this fellow's master?' he could not help but think, but didn't reject their proposal.

Before Xia Lian could even think about the possibility of asking them about their names, the boy in front of her dragged the other one and soared into air, disappearing from the sight immediately.

” I will go check on the other patients. Please excuse me.” He Chun also left the room to allow the kid to get some rest.

' Holy f*ck.. I didn't even ask their names?' Xia Lian facepalmed after realising her own folly. Then again, she convinced herself that she could have a chat with them later on and continued to observe the patient's condition closely.

The little girl continued to check the man's pulse and body temperature to make sure that nothing was wrong with him. She performed this surgery even though the success rate was low without the modern equipment available. It was like a big gamble, but the man would have surely died if she didn't try. Such a difficult surgery, a heart valve replacement at that, was always accompanied by major risks. Maintaining her vigilance even after working all day was truly difficult though.

Noticing that her master was not sleeping at all despite all the effort she put into saving so many people, Fan Ling felt heavy in her heart. She knew that she could not persuade her anyways, and the only chance of success would be looking for the one single person she ever met to win over her master in a discussion. After sending that ominous person into her master's room, Fan Ling went back to complete her work of cutting vegetables with an expectant expression.

” Big brother.” Xia Lian immediately turned back out of surprise, onlyto see her little bunny with a wronged expression on his face. She immediately felt guilty for neglecting this kid, even though she was busy with all her work she should make time for her family.

Getting down on her knees and slowly hugging the little boy, she began coaxing him to the best of her abilities, ” Ming, your brother is busy in treating all these brothers and sisters.”

Xia Ming naturally saw many people who were happily sleeping. Oh, they were injured? The little bun's face had a concerned expression.

”Brother, so they are hurt.. I thought that they are just sleeping.”

Xia Lian couldn't help but be proud of this kid. She only mentioned about the situation of her disguising as a man a single time, but he already remembered it so well. Generally, kids at this age forget such things easily. It seems her bunny was already a little different. She had to start thinking about his future education.

' Hmm.. Different?' Xia Lian questioned herself, ' No, he's just special.' her heart answered her stupid question.
