Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Cursing Them Profusely
In Tong Yao’s understanding, a tumor surgery was not a minor operation like a hemorrhoidectomy, and Si Chen should not have been qualified to be the chief surgeon. At most, he could observe from the side, but he should not have reached the level of a leading surgeon yet.
Liu Qing gave a sarcastic smile, "Yaoyao, it’s not me who’s criticizing you, but you should pay more attention to Dr. Si. Don’t spend all day at the milk tea shop. Your man is performing such a major surgery, and if you don’t know about it, people would doubt if you two are really a couple."
Speaking of being the primary surgeon, Liu Qing felt a pang of jealousy. In the hospital, no other doctor has performed such a significant operation so quickly.
It took her man four or five years.
Professor Qiu is treating Si Chen like his favorite grandchild!
Everyone was jealous of Si Chen, waiting to see him make a fool of himself, while on the other hand, they are afraid that his surgery might be successful.
If Si Chen messed up this time or made some mistakes, he won’t get the chance to perform such a significant operation for a few years, or even worse, maybe for his whole life.
Being an ordinary doctor, he won’t starve, but he won’t become famous either.
But if Si Chen’s surgery turned out to be a great success, Professor Qiu would definitely favor him more, and Si Chen’s status in the hospital would change dramatically.
Everyone was mocking Si Chen’s overambition, afraid of his success. They found that Si Chen had accepted a red envelope from a patient’s family and was caught red-handed. He was still in the operating room and was not aware of the severity of the situation. He was probably still working hard on the surgery, expecting a promotion and a raise.
Little did he know, as soon as the operating room’s door opened, he would be suspended for investigation. 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝙢
No wonder Ting Yao and her husband’s income was not high, but they spent money like it was endless. Look, the red envelope from the patient’s family was even higher than his salary. How could they lack money to spend?
"Ah Chen would never secretly accept red envelopes from patients’ families. Don’t talk nonsense before the situation is clear."
Tong Yao firmly believed that Si Chen would never do such a foolish thing, and she had absolute confidence in his surgical skills. He was actually performing surgery, such a young man being the chief surgeon for a tumor surgery. No wonder Liu Qing was so gleeful, she must also be jealous. Surgery would exhaust you, both physically and mentally. Tong Yao planned to cook something delicious for Si Chen to replenish his energy tonight.
Liu Qing spat at Tong Yao’s back and muttered, "Denying what everyone already knows, playing dumb here. Wait and see, you’ll cry tonight. Spending the money from the patients’ families and not afraid of karma?"
There was no one more lavish than Tong Yao in the family house. Every day, it was either fish or meat, and the fruit was as if it were free-flowing into their house.
Even if her father is a retired factory director, you can’t spend money like that, can you?
What’s more, which parents would subsidize so much money for their daughters?
In her opinion, the couple Tong Yao was using the excuse of her father being a factory director to lavishly spending the red envelopes stuffed by the patients’ families. The position wasn’t high, but they made a lot of dirty money. If Si Chen grew successful, he would become the most corrupt doctor harming their hospital’s reputation in the future.
They must be thoroughly investigated, preferably have their medical license revoked directly and sent to the police station for reform.
Professor Qiu must have gone old and blind. Out of so many capable young doctors, he only favors a country-born doctor. It’s a mystery what he’s after.
When Tong Yao returned to the room, the small calico cat jumped in from the window, meowing about news it had heard from others. Everyone was talking about how Si Chen had accepted a red envelope and was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
As the calico cat was in the middle of its story, it suddenly let out a ’meow’ and jumped out of the window. Following that, there was a knock on the door, and it was Deng Wenwen, whom she hadn’t seen in a while.
Deng Wenwen failed to pass the college entrance exam twice, so she simply gave up studying and found a job as a bus ticket seller. After her rebellious phase, she became more sensible than before and no longer hated Tong Yao. Hearing about Si Chen’s situation after returning from work, she hurried over to report to Tong Yao.
"Sister Yaoyao, everyone says Doctor Si accepted a red envelope from a patient’s family, and the hospital thinks it’s a serious situation, they want to punish Doctor Si."
"Ah Chen would never accept a red envelope from a patient’s family. There’s definitely a misunderstanding in this. He won’t be afraid as long as he is in the right, so don’t worry." Despite what she said, Tong Yao was still a bit uneasy.
She believed that Si Chen would not accept a red envelope, but she was afraid someone might deliberately frame him.
"I also believe in Doctor Si. You guys run a milk tea shop, and the monthly income is not low. Dr. Si doesn’t need to do such a thing. I think some people in the hospital are jealous of Dr. Si’s ability and are deliberately messing around behind his back." After becoming familiar with Tong Yao and getting along better, Deng Wenwen also found out that Tong Yao was the owner of the milk tea shop.
Initially, she had considered working in the milk tea shop, but her mother was against it. Instead, she made her take a job as a ticket seller, saying that working in a catering establishment was servile work.
Deng Wenwen couldn’t overcome her mother’s opposition and reluctantly became a ticket seller. Fortunately, the job wasn’t tiring, and she could manage.
Tong Yao noticed the small crack in Liu Qing’s door from the corner of her eyes, smiled lightly, and cursed, "Some gossips like to undermine others. Seeing others spend money makes them itch, they are like abstainers who can’t bear to see others eat meat. They always use narrow-minded and mean thoughts to speculate on others’ wealth, create rumors about them, when in fact, they are just jealous. I’d better not catch those gossipers, or else I’ll give them a good dressing down."
Listening from behind her door, Liu Qing felt a prickle in her heart. It felt like Tong Yao was cursing her?
Following Tong Yao’s hint, Deng Wenwen also noticed the slight gap in Liu Qing’s door and quickly changed the subject, "Sister Yaoyao, when I came over, I saw our little calico cat run out of your house. It seems to come over often and likes you a lot. I’ll give it to you to keep."
"Sure!" Tong Yao had no objections, "I happen to like kittens a lot too, and they can catch mice. We’ve had a lot of mice lately, not only are they destroying things, but they also enjoy eavesdropping."
"Then it’s settled." Deng Wenwen chuckled, "You can go on with your things, I’ll leave first."
Although saying she would leave, her steps didn’t move at all, as if she wanted to ask something but didn’t know how to start, hemming and hawing, she didn’t seem to want to leave.
Tong Yao saw through her little mind at a glance, winked at her and laughed softly, "Zhou Lei wondered yesterday why you hadn’t visited our shop for so long. When you have a day off, come over for a visit, I’ll treat you to milk tea."
Deng Wenwen’s face flushed in an instant, the smile on her face couldn’t be concealed, "I have a day off in a couple of days, I’ll come over then."
After that, she darted down the stairs, her mood was like a kite, swaying high in the sky. Just as she reached the corner of the staircase, she was stopped by Liu Qing, who had chased after her.
"Wenwen, wait, I have something to ask you."
