Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Bear with a little, it hurts a bit.
The boy’s father looked at the dean, then at Director Zheng. He seed puzzled by their conversation, and after a while, he said: "Have you misunderstood sothing?"
"Misunderstood?" Yu Zhengxiong was shocked, then asked cryptically, "You are here for...?"
The boy’s father gave a hearty chuckle, then suddenly pulled out the child behind him and said, "Kneel down and kowtow to the woman who saved your life. If it weren’t for her, you’d be dead by now, so hurry up and kowtow to her."
Upon hearing this, the boy was about to kneel down, but Si Chen quickly caught him. Tong Yao also stepped forward and hurriedly waved her hands, saying, "There’s no need to kneel or kowtow. I didn’t do much, just don’t mind that I don’t have a dical license."
Actually, Tong Yao had so guesses about what was going on when she saw these n coming toward her.
Most people in this era are fairly pragmatic, without much ulterior motives. In their eyes, Tong Yao was the one who saved the man. Having soone knowledgeable about first aid at a critical mont was like an angel’s arrival. They saw her as the child’s benefactor.
Under such circumstances, who would mind her lack of dical qualifications? If they hesitated any more, the child might have died. Even without qualifications, she was more professional than them scraping the child’s throat with their hands.
The boy’s father, with an honest face, said, "Don’t belittle your actions."
The child’s mouth was full of vomit at that ti, and this young lady did not mind it. She even perford mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. They were still moved by it, and how could they bla the person who saved the child’s life?
"You were a godsend. The child’s face was already turning blue. If it weren’t for you..." The man’s voice choked up as he spoke, recalling the scene, which still made him shudder. He adjusted his emotions before continuing: "We are uneducated country folk and don’t understand dical qualifications. We only know that a good cat is the one that can catch mice. We were very hasty and forgot to say thanks. I am an uneducated roughneck who doesn’t articulate well, please don’t mind."
He hadn’t fully recovered from the previous scare. His words were sowhat incoherent, but what he said made Yu Shiya and Director Zheng blush.
Seeing this, Si Chen changed the topic and asked quietly, "Is the child all right?"
The boy’s father quickly replied, "He’s fine, he’s fine. He has been checked, there’s nothing wrong. It’s all thanks to the young lady who saved him in ti."
Si Chen nodded, "The hot sumr is a ti when drownings occur frequently. Pay more attention to the child’s whereabouts, educate him about safety, and avoid such incidents."
Having learned his lesson, the boy’s father nodded repeatedly. He would never let his child approach the water again. Thank goodness the child was fine. Otherwise, their family would be broken.
"Second Brother, the doctors are very busy. Let’s not disturb them anymore." Another man, who was more considerate, tugged at the boy’s father, indicating that it was ti for them to leave. Staying any longer would not be expressing gratitude, but causing trouble for others.
Upon hearing this, the boy’s father, as if he had just realized sothing, thanked Tong Yao a few more tis and then left with the child.
Seeing that the three n and the child had left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, so were disappointed, thinking that they could watch a good show. They didn’t expect the n ca to express their gratitude to Si Chen and his wife.
Today, Si Chen and his wife have indeed made a splash in front of Professor Qu.
An incident of a child drowning had caused quite a stir in the hospital. As the dean, Yu Zhengxiong felt a bit humiliated. Seeing that it was ti for the doctors to see patients, Yu Zhengxiong asked Professor Qu to go upstairs.
After walking a few steps, Professor Qu seed to think of sothing and turned back to remind Si Chen, "Dr. Si, your wife was stung by a bee quite seriously on her face. You should treat it imdiately. Bee venom is not to be taken lightly."
"I’ll take her for treatnt right now." Si Chen nodded politely to Professor Qu, then led Tong Yao to the clinic on the second floor.
Tong Yao, sowhat absent-minded, followed Si Chen into the clinic. Seeing him pulling out things like alcohol and cotton swabs from the drawer, she gathered up her courage to approach him and said, "A distinguished personage at the level of a professor from Kyoto Hospital has co here. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to stay here with ?"
"It’s not a big deal."
Si Chen opened the bottle of alcohol and disinfected Tong Yao’s bee sting. He then used a dical tweezer to check for any presence of a stinger. Tong Yao winced in pain and instinctively flinched.
Si Chen looked at her, pursed his lips, and said, "Bear with it. It’s going to hurt a bit."
Tong Yao obediently nodded, "Hmm." She could actually bear this pain. She was just not prepared for it and was taken aback by the sudden sting.
Si Chen lightened his movents, skillfully treating her wound. After he had done everything, he asked seriously, "How did you get stung?" He had almost failed to recognize Tong Yao in the hospital lobby.
Tong Yao touched her cheek, which hurt so much that she sucked in a breath of cold air, "This, well, it’s a long story. I playfully shook the tree in the family courtyard." As she said the last word, her voice faded."
Such a grown-up person, yet she was shaking a wasp nest. If the word got out, it would be a bit embarrassing.
"..." Si Chen gave her a speechless stare. For a mont, he really didn’t know what to say about her, "Don’t touch your face. This swelling will take at least three to four days to completely subside."
"Three to four days?" Tong Yao’s face fell, thinking about going out with a swollen face for the next few days, she felt utterly disheartened.
"Has Boyi arrived yet?" Si Chen’s deep eyes lingered on Tong Yao’s swollen face for two seconds, then he turned around to clean and put away the tweezers.
"He has. I took him to dinner, then sent him to stay at Xiaohui’s rental house. Tomorrow morning, I will take him to buy so daily necessities and find soone to renovate the store." The rent started ticking as soon as the contract was signed, so she needed to hurry up and open the store. Thinking about the prosperous business after the store opens, she couldn’t help but smile, resulting in a piercing pain on her cheek.
Si Chen put away the tweezers and turned to look at her, "Si Jun has a relative who does renovations. He has already contacted him for . He will go to Xiaohui’s place tomorrow afternoon. You can tell him your preferred style then."
"You’ve already found soone to do the renovations?" Tong Yao’s eyes sparkled. She then leaned her head to the side and teased him with a mischievous grin, "I heard that Si Jun seems to be pursuing Yu Shiya and the dean also intends to match them up. Si Jun probably knows that Yu Shiya used to have a crush on you. Isn’t it awkward when you two see each other?"
"Why would it be awkward?" Si Chen bent down and sat opposite Tong Yao, their positions like a doctor-patient consultation, "Si Jun has always liked Yu Shiya."
"..." Tong Yao was taken aback, her bee-stung eyes wide open, "I thought you don’t like gossip. How do you know about this?"
Si Chen, "This isn’t a secret." Well, it’s not sothing that everyone knows either.
Si Jun had liked Yu Shiya before. Only two people in the entire hospital knew about it, with the other one being Si Jun himself.
Tong Yao puckered her lips, seeing that Si Chen’s expression remained serious the whole ti, she thought he was upset about her saving soone. She originally wanted to distract him by changing the subject, but looking at the current situation, it seed hard to bluff her way out of it.
