"Ning Xi, how is your second cousin?"

Mrs. Xiang had been waiting at the ICU door since early morning. Even though Ning Xi said Xiang Chuandong would be fine, as a mother, she was still worried.

"Don't worry, auntie. The condition is stable. Apart from the edema after the operation, there are no other dangerous complications. He should wake up soon."

"That's good." Mrs. Xiang nodded. In just one day, she seemed to have aged a lot. Her previously well-maintained delicate face now had several more wrinkles, and even her back was a little bent.

Ning Xi grabbed her hand, but before she could say anything to comfort him, the nurse who was in charge of taking care of Xiang Chuandong came out and said, "Doctor Ning, the patient is awake!"

Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Xiang's worried eyes immediately brightened up and she quickly looked at Ning Xi.

Ning Xi was also happy for her and said, "Let's go in and take a look together."

"Oh, okay! Okay!" Mrs. Xiang nodded immediately.

Then he followed Ning Xi to the other side to change into isolation clothing, and then entered the ICU ward together.

Xiang Chuandong's entire head was wrapped in gauze and was in the stage of postoperative edema, which made him look like a big winter melon on his neck, which was a bit funny.

His eyes were so swollen that only a slit remained. When he heard footsteps approaching, he subconsciously turned his gaze to look over there.

"Second brother, how do you feel?" Mrs. Xiang burst into tears when she saw him like this.

"Mom..." Having escaped death, Xiang Chuandong was obviously very excited to see her, and even had tears in his eyes.

"You silly child, why didn't you listen to me? I told you not to go look for that woman, and you..."

Mrs. Xiang wanted to reprimand him, but when she saw the tears rolling down her son's eyes, she couldn't bear to say anything more. She just said, "Fortunately, Xiaoxi is a great doctor. If she hadn't saved you, you would have really died! When you get better, remember to thank your cousin!"

Xiang Chuandong opened her mouth and looked at Ning Xi behind her.

Ning Xi nodded slightly to him and called him second cousin.

He opened his mouth to look towards Chuandong, but no response came out.

Because he felt ashamed.

He said that about Ning Xi before, but reality slapped him hard in the face and he almost lost his life!

Ning Xi didn't care. He did some examinations on him as usual. After making sure that he was awake, he told the nurse to go.

When Mrs. Xiang saw her son like this, she immediately guessed what he was thinking.

He couldn't help but sigh and said, "You kid... Oh, forget it, it's all in the past. From now on, just treat your cousin as a family member!"

Xiang Chuandong then responded sullenly.

Because he had just woken up, it was not appropriate to talk too much, so Ning Xi quickly brought Madam Xiang out.

"Xiao Xi, please go back to the department first. I'll call your uncle and cousin and let them feel more at ease." Mrs. Xiang came out and said.

"Well, aunt, Xiying's condition is already very good. If you want her to go home early and reunite with Xiaobao, she can be discharged from the hospital now." Ning Xi gave her another good news.

"Really? Then let your cousin come and get Yingying discharged from the hospital, so that she can go home to recuperate and stay with Xiaobao." Mrs. Xiang said.

"Okay, I'll tell my cousin the details when he comes to check out of the hospital."

"well!"

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Xiang in the ICU, Ning Xi went straight back to the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

When Head Nurse Sun saw her coming, she immediately came over to deliver the news, "Director Ling has been waiting for you in Director Qi's office since early morning, and he hasn't left yet."

"Dean Ling? What does he want to talk to me about?"

"I do not know."

"Okay, thank you, head nurse. I'll go take a look right away." After talking to the head nurse, Ning Xi went directly to Professor Qi's office.

After knocking on the door, I heard a voice from inside: "Come in."

"Professor Qi."

"Hey, Xiaoning, you're here."

"Well, I just went to the ICU to check on Xiang Chuandong's condition, so I was late."

"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work." Professor Qi was very happy to see her. He had also heard about her performing a ten-hour operation yesterday and saving Xiang Chuandong.

Moreover, it was Director Yan of the Neurosurgery Department who came to him personally and said it, which brought a lot of honor to their department and made him look very proud when he went to work today.

Of course, he would be happier if there wasn't this annoying old man standing in his office early in the morning.

Ning Xi smiled and said it was not hard, then looked to the side and saw Dean Ling, who was smiling kindly and amiably, like Maitreya Buddha.

"..."

Just, it's a little creepy, what's going on?

"President Ling." No matter what he was thinking, Ning Xi still politely greeted the other party first.

"Hey, Doctor Ning, please come over here! I heard how hard you worked yesterday. If you hadn't come, the patient would have been in danger!

Sure enough, our hospital still needs great doctors like you! "When Dean Ling heard her calling him, he was immediately delighted and waved his hand, followed by words of praise.

Ning Xi smiled awkwardly but politely.

Professor Qi was not so polite and immediately sneered, "I don't know who it was who wanted to suspend our Xiao Ning a few days ago. So, we don't need to do it anymore?"

After being slapped in the face in public, the smile on Dean Ling's face froze for a moment, he glanced at Professor Qi, then looked at Ning Xi and said, "Doctor Ning, we didn't handle the matter that day properly, and we disappointed you.

So today, on behalf of the hospital, I want to apologize to you! I hope you don’t take it personally and continue to do what you want to do without any worries.”

Looking at his sincere attitude, Ning Xi already understood why he was waiting here.

But she hadn't intended to care about these things, because, as I said, she knew that everyone had their own considerations, not to mention that it was such a big hospital, and Director Ling would definitely put the hospital's reputation and interests first.

Therefore, there is no point in caring about it, unless she doesn't want to work here anymore.

So, she smiled and said, "Dean Ling, since the matter has already passed, there is no need to talk about it anymore. I will still do my best to take responsibility for my patients in the future."

"Okay, Old Qi is right. You are indeed an outstanding young man. We, the older generation, should be proud of your generation for contributing to our medical community!" When Dean Ling heard that she would not pursue the matter, his heart finally settled down.

After all, news about the Qin family spread in the circle early yesterday morning.

Now everyone who has a good relationship with the Qin family knows that the eldest son of the Qin family, Sun, already has a wife, who is a doctor and the niece of Madam Xiang!

Dean Ling has a wide network of contacts, so naturally he heard all of this, and then he thought about what happened that day when Qin Yan stood up for Ning Xi.

But don’t worry that you and the hospital will offend the Qin family!

Now hearing Ning Xi say this, he finally felt relieved.

"No way, I'm still far behind Dean Ling and Professor Qi." Ning Xi said modestly.

"Haha! Doctor Ning, there's no need to be modest. We know our own strengths and weaknesses, but we are not as good as you..."

After some business flattery, Dean Ling, with the idea of ​​saying nice things without asking for money, praised Ning Xi from head to toe. Then, as Ning Xi looked on with an awkward smile, he went back with satisfaction, his hands behind his back.
