Chapter 2188: Chapter 2188: A Bit Troublesome
The doctor from outside?!
Xie Wanying felt a strong sense of foreboding and asked her childhood friend, "Which hospital did she register at?"
"Which hospital did you go to, Sister Weng?" Wu Lixuan asked on the phone.
"Beidou Third Hospital," Sister Weng replied.
"Beidou Third? The most famous obstetrics and gynecology hospital?" Sun Rongfang said. These days she was staying in the Capital, keeping tabs on her daughter’s situation. If she remembered correctly, her daughter was currently interning with a well-known teacher in the gynecology field.
Wu Lixuan thought: Oh no, could things be heading in the direction that godmother feared?
"Did she find the doctor after being introduced to one while waiting in line at the hospital?" Xie Wanying grabbed her friend, insisting on getting this question clarified.
Beidou Third Hospital’s management in this area wasn’t as strong as Guoxie’s, with too many medical scalpers that couldn’t be chased away. What they feared most was Sister Weng being tricked by one of these scalpers into seeing a quack, delaying the diagnosis of a real urgent illness.
Sister Weng was clearly hesitant, not wanting to answer the question, and instead voiced her doubts, "Who’s talking on your side?"
"It’s my friend, Yingying. I’ve mentioned her to you; she’s a medical student at Guoxie and is also interning at Beidou Third Hospital’s Obstetrics and Gynecology Department right now. She’s just concerned after hearing about your situation." Wu Lixuan explained gently to the other party, "She suggests you go to a regular hospital and see a real doctor to find out the cause of your abdominal pain."
Unfortunately, Sister Weng didn’t take in this concern and suddenly took on a furious demeanor, ranting, "She’s just an intern, why is she meddling in other people’s business? Even the senior doctors in the hospital don’t meddle in others’ affairs. Tell her to shut her mouth." After saying that, she abruptly hung up the phone.
Wu Lixuan was dumbfounded: What was going on?
It’s hard for people with a moral compass to imagine other perspectives.
"How well do you know this friend?" Sun Rongfang was angry upon hearing the other party curse her two daughters and asked her goddaughter. If it’s not a very close friend, there’s no need to interfere with such a malicious person’s business.
Wu Lixuan revealed the secret, insisting she wasn’t the type to meddle in other people’s business, saying, "Her in-laws run a company that has dealings with my company, one of our major clients. I’m quite familiar with her family."
After hearing this, everyone felt that the situation was tricky.
Wu Lixuan, worried, said, "The new office I’m renting now was found by their family, and the rent is relatively cheap. Usually, Sister Weng gives me the impression of being a very kind person, speaking gently. I don’t know if it’s because of her illness, but her tone now is much harsher, as if she’s a different person."
This wasn’t just because of the illness.
Shang Siling thought for a moment, then hurriedly turned her head to call her husband for help.
As their daughter was causing a fuss wanting to go to the hospital to see her doctor brother, Xiao Shugang was coaxing her. Hearing his wife’s plea for help, he walked over, listened to the situation, remained calm, and first sought his cousin Xie Wanying’s professional opinion, "Yingying, do you think her situation will be serious if she doesn’t go to the hospital?"
No matter the reason, relationship, or matter, human life must come first. Xie Wanying agreed with her cousin’s viewpoint and expressed her clinical medical opinion, "Unexplained abdominal pain has always been quite a frightening condition clinically."
Only once the cause is identified can doctors confidently determine whether the patient’s abdominal pain is a serious issue or a minor one.
