Chapter 71 – Waiting for Gains without Pains (守株待兔)
Gan Songbai was a responsible doctor. The situation this time was special so he made an exception for her, but she definitely would not be allowed to treat someone like that in the future since she didn’t have the qualifications. If things were to go awry, no one would be able to bear the responsibilities. It would also affect her for life.
Seeing that Jing Yunzhao had already expressed her sincerity, Gan Songbai was relieved and didn’t scold her.
The Gan Jinchen standing beside them, however, could not believe it. “You really saved someone?”
Su Chu and he had been in contact with the study of medicine since they were young and till now they still didn’t have the qualifications to treat patients. At most, they could only identify some medicinal materials and understand a little bit of medicine, but they never dared to use those prescriptions and treatments thoughtlessly. Yet, Jing Yunzhao, this complete newbie, actually dared?
Jing Yunzhao could see Gan Jinchen’s enmity. If it had been someone else, she would have ignored them completely, but seeing that Grandpa Gan had helped her so many times before, Jing Yunzhao didn’t want to bother with him.
“How could it not be real?” Xiao Haiqing had a proud expression. “I know you, you’re Gan Jinchen, one of the school’s top ten princes! I’ve heard that you’re gentle and knows medicine, but looking at you now… the rumors doesn’t seem to be true!”
Gan Jinchen’s face went blank, feeling a bit awkward and embarrassed.
After Xiao Haiqing had finished, Jing Yunzhao pulled her and said, “Don’t mind her. Haiqing is too straightforward…. We’ll be going first, Grandpa.”
Gan Jinchen was now even more annoyed. Straightforward? Does that mean Jing Yunzhao believed what that other girl had said to be the truth?
Jing Yunzhao didn’t care about him and after saying her goodbyes to Gan Songbai, she left with Xiao Haiqing.
“Grandpa, what kind of treatment did she use to save someone?” Gan Jinchen pouted his lips and asked, feeling a bit aggrieved.
Seeing his grandson like this, Gan Songbai had trouble maintaining his composure, even feeling a bit happy over Gan Jinchen’s misfortune. This grandson of his usually refused to comply to a lot of people. He did look kind and easy to get along with on the surface, but he was actually a porcupine, haughty and arrogant.
He had complaints about Jing Yunzhao yet the other party just didn’t want to bother with him. This might give him a few sleepless nights.
Gan Songbai coughed, rubbed his beard, and said, “This treatment method… is actually quite simple, but those under dire situation might not be able to think of it. Also, that girl’s head was bleeding nonstop. Most doctors would overlook the eye injuries…”
“Jing Yunzhao is a good doctor material. Chen-er, you live under the same roof as her so you have more chances of interacting with her. You must ask her for guidance in the future…” Gan Songbai said purposely.
Hearing this, Gan Jinchen’s face was completely red. He turned around to leave.
Gan Songbai wasn’t annoyed but was instead chuckling happily behind him. His grandson used to be the one who made others upset, so the situation today was really rare!
Jing Yunzhao and Xiao Haiqing did not go very far. They found a cafe near the hospital and took a break. Coincidentally, through the glass windows, they could see the hospital entrance.
Xiao Haiqing didn’t understand what was going at first but when she saw that scene, she instantly understood. Jing Yunzhao was waiting for Ye Qing.
Even though Ye Qing had escaped, she had caused such a mess. At most she would appear near the hospital, hesitating.
“What if she doesn’t come?” Xiao Haiqing was a little worried.
She had never seen someone more selfish than Ye Qing, someone who hides and let their own mother carry all the burden and blame. Right now, she was only 15 years old. Wouldn’t that personality of hers be even worse after a few more years?
“The Ye family is bankrupt. She only has the money left from the restaurant. That little amount is definitely not enough for her. How could she not come find Aunty Ye for more? We have nothing to do right now anyways, so let’s wait and see!” Jing Yunzhao stirred the contents of her cup as the scent of bitter coffee wafted out.
