Chapter 295: Chapter 295: The Big Stone Falls
Unexpectedly, the female doctor he had lucked out with was none other than Lei Yang’s sister.
Yang Lei blinked, “Do you know my brother?”
“Ah… yes, he’s quite a famous doctor.” Su Lu said.
“Of course, although he is a bit annoying, he is indeed impeccable professionally. Now do you trust ? You can relax a bit, right? With my brother here, the kid will be fine.” Yang Lei stated.
Su Lu nodded.
The ambulance had already stopped, and Lei Yang was waiting at the door. When he saw the child on the stretcher, he was taken aback, almost mistaking it for a child who just looked similar.
When he saw Su Lu coming down from the ambulance, Lei Yang realized he hadn’t mistaken; it truly was Zhao Xiaole! His expression changed imdiately.
His brows furrowed tightly, his face, which usually appeared much younger than his age due to his youthful features, now looked a lot more stern and composed because of his frown.
“What happened?” Lei Yang asked in a deep voice, “What’s wrong with the child?”
“Mango allergy.” Yang Lei answered, “Didn’t I just tell you over the phone?”
Although Yang Lei had heard Su Lu say she knew her brother, Su Lu had only ntioned that Lei Yang was quite a famous doctor, so Yang Lei thought Su Lu had just seen him before, not that they knew each other.
Then she heard Lei Yang say, “How did he just get an allergy? Is it the restaurant’s fault?”
Typically, parents are aware of their child’s allergies, and when dining out, they usually instruct the restaurant, but if the child still experiences an allergic reaction, it’s definitely the restaurant’s mistake.
But Yang Lei was sowhat puzzled. Why was her brother suddenly ddling? After blinking, she responded uncertainly, “Why are you asking so many questions…”
Before Yang Lei could finish, she heard Su Lu weakly say, “It’s due to so other reasons… Anyway, don’t tell You Ran. She’s still sick herself, and I don’t want her to worry.”
Yang Lei looked at Su Lu, then at her brother, “Oh! So you guys know each other?”
She had thought that Su Lu rely knew of Lei Yang, given his fa in his field.
Lei Yang nodded at Su Lu, “Alright.”
He didn’t bother to find out whether Su Lu was opting not to tell Cheng You Ran because she was worried about worrying him, or if there was so other reason she didn’t want Cheng You Ran to know.
After all, in his view, considering how careful Su Lu was about the child, it’s unlikely she would overlook the child’s diet and cause an allergic reaction.
Then Lei Yang glanced at Yang Lei, “You really have co a long way, to perform a cricothyroidotomy on such a young child in that kind of environnt. What if there had been excessive blood loss? Or a subsequent infection?”
Yang Lei’s eyes widened, “Do you know how critical the situation was? The ambulance was stuck in traffic, the child was turning cyanotic; any further delay could have caused brain damage due to oxygen deprivation. It’s easy for you to talk without any pain! Besides, don’t you think I don’t know that a puncture wound is smaller than an incision? Where was I supposed to find puncturing tools then!”
Not all sibling relationships in the world are like those of Su Lu with Shen Xun or Su Lu with Su Zhe.
Their situations are different; both Shen Xun and Su Zhe feel indebted to Su Lu deep down, thus they spoil her endlessly, whatever she says goes.
It’s also because Su Lu herself is a gentle and sensible person; otherwise, if she were petulant and capricious, she might have been spoiled rotten by such brothers in minutes.
In reality, siblings are more often like Lei Yang and Yang Lei, who of course care for each other deeply, take pride in each other’s achievents, and share in each other’s joys and sorrows, but in practical terms, this usually manifests as mutual nagging.
Arguing like adversaries is the norm.
Don’t be fooled by Lei Yang’s aloof and formidable deanor in front of patients and colleagues; the vibe he gives off in front of Yang Lei is completely different.
He listened to Yang Lei’s words and showed no understanding at all, simply raising his eyebrows before spitting out two words, “Useless.”
Yang Lei rolled up her sleeves, “If it weren’t for the timing, I would beat you to death right now.”
The three of them followed the gurney inside.
For so reason, Su Lu didn’t feel that Lei Yang and Yang Lei chatting about other things was inappropriate or disrespectful to her as a family mber of the patient.
On the contrary, the fact that these siblings, also doctors, still had the ti for other conversations eased Su Lu’s mind.
This at least ant that Xiao Le’s condition really wasn’t too severe, not to the extent that required the siblings’ solemn attention.
Lei Yang, not wanting to compete with his sister, turned to Su Lu and said, “It’s not serious, don’t worry.”
Su Lu breathed a deep sigh of relief, “That’s good, that’s good.”
She had once heard Cheng Youran say that as doctors, they actually hesitated to make any promises to patients and their families because the human body is too mysterious, and no one knows exactly what will happen next or what definitely won’t happen.
There are too many unknowns. In the face of these unknown possibilities, doctors also feel powerless.
If they give overly certain promises and then fail to et those expectations, it’s too disappointing and saddening.
It would also be too much of a burden for the doctors and could even lead to hostile feelings from the patients and their families, so doctors usually adopt a very ambiguous attitude.
At the ti when Cheng Youran said this to Su Lu, she, standing from the perspective of a doctor, could sowhat understand.
But now, standing from the perspective of a family mber of the patient, she realized, although understanding that doctors have a difficult job, during such tis, if they could get a very certain statent from the doctor—
Not serious.
Will get better soon.
Minor issue.
It certainly eases the tightened emotions significantly.
“That’s good, so good,” Su Lu couldn’t help but repeat.
Lei Yang nodded at her, walked forward, and grasped Zhao Xiaole’s hand, “Xiao Le, do you still recognize ?”
Xiao Le opened his mouth, and from the shape of his lips, he seed to be calling him Uncle Lei.
Lei Yang’s eyes slightly curved, “That’s fine then, you know, Uncle Lei is more formidable than your godmother, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
“I’m not scared,” Xiao Le said with his lips, then looked worriedly at Su Lu, “Tell my mom not to cry.”
Su Lu quickly wiped her tears, “No more crying, Mommy’s not crying anymore.”
Su Lu was stopped at the door of the ergency treatnt room.
Lei Yang said, “You better not co in, it’s not a pleasant sight to see, and usually, families are not allowed to watch. Just wait outside.”
Su Lu wanted to argue, but after thinking it over, she felt it was better not to trouble him and nodded, “Then I’ll leave it to you.”
“Okay.” Lei Yang nodded and said to Yang Lei, “You stay with her. I’ll go clean up your ss.”
Yang Lei rudely retorted, “Hey—spit! Get lost.”
