Rebooting 60, let's go on a rampage with the orange cat!
Chapter 126 Love Change
Shi Huai'an descended the stairs with light steps, humming a cheerful tune. Just as she was about to reach the last few steps, a familiar figure suddenly came into her view—it was Wu Yutong!
Wu Yutong hurried over from the opposite side, and upon seeing Huai'an, she stopped in surprise. Pretending to have just met him, she exclaimed in surprise, "Shi Huai'an—"
Compared to before, she had grown significantly taller and her figure had become even more slender and graceful. Her delicate face remained beautiful and charming, but upon closer inspection, her skin had become even whiter and more delicate, as smooth and lustrous as white jade. She had become even more pitiful and endearing.
"Oh, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here." Huai'an was a little surprised, but quickly greeted him happily.
She noticed that Wu Yutong was wearing a pristine white nurse's uniform and couldn't help but ask curiously, "So you work here?"
Upon hearing Huai'an's question, Wu Yutong blushed slightly, seemingly caught off guard. But she quickly regained her composure, offering a slightly embarrassed smile, and softly replied, "Oh...no, I'm just here for an internship. Whether I can stay here in the future is uncertain. As for you, you should still be studying at school, right?"
As she spoke, she deliberately pretended to know nothing about Huai'an's recent situation.
At this moment, other pedestrians passed by on the stairs, and the two of them moved closer to the handrail to make room for others to pass.
Shi Huai'an looked at Wu Yutong and replied with a smile, "Yes, I'm still in school. Since you're busy with work, I won't bother you any longer. I'm going to rest at the guesthouse for a while."
After saying that, she waved to Wu Yutong and turned to walk down the stairs.
Seeing that Huai'an seemed unwilling to talk much, Wu Yutong put on a fake smile but said, "Okay then, bye-bye! Remember to come visit me when you have time." She then waved enthusiastically.
Huai'an walked downstairs without looking back, casually waving one hand and letting out a big yawn, saying lazily, "Alright, I'm off now, gotta hurry back to the guesthouse to catch up on some sleep!"
Wu Yutong watched helplessly as Shi Huai'an walked further and further away until his figure completely disappeared from her sight. At this moment, she was filled with mixed feelings, both angry and resentful. She bit her lower lip to suppress her inner inferiority.
She couldn't help but curse inwardly: What's with the attitude? It's just going to the capital to study, what's so great about it! Does she really think she's someone important? Don't fall into my hands later, or I'll make you regret it.
For some reason, Shi Huai'an's completely indifferent and apathetic attitude towards her felt like a thorn deeply embedded in her heart, making her feel particularly uncomfortable.
The jealousy that had been buried deep in her heart suddenly ignited like a flame, burning fiercely and expanding continuously.
She felt as if a large rock was blocking her chest, making it hard to breathe. A sour feeling welled up in her heart, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Wu Yutong couldn't help but transfer her anger to her brother-in-law. She thought indignantly, "This brother-in-law is such a coward! He had such a good opportunity, with such a ready-made handle handed to him, but he acted like nothing happened and didn't react at all! He's simply a useless guy!"
Unable to contain her impatience, Wu Yutong went to her brother-in-law Chen Jun again to inquire about the progress of the matter.
She blinked her large, crystal-clear eyes, which sparkled with light, and deliberately put on an innocent and naive look.
She said coquettishly, "Brother-in-law, see? Didn't they say it right? That Shi Huai'an used to be in the same school as me. She's probably around sixteen years old now. Someone her age definitely hasn't gotten her medical license yet. I didn't expect her to be so impulsive. Sigh, now she's made such a big mess. I really don't know what to say to her..."
Hearing this, Chen Jun was slightly taken aback, then replied with great interest, "Oh my, I really didn't expect that you two are alumni! But speaking of which, Shi Huai'an is truly remarkable; his medical skills are simply unparalleled!"
However, these words surprised her somewhat, and she wondered to herself: Why would her brother-in-law praise Shi Huai'an so highly?
For a moment, she couldn't figure out what her brother-in-law Chen Jun was thinking.
So she simply used all her charm, took Chen Jun's hand and started to act coquettishly: "Good brother-in-law, please tell me, will she be punished for this? If her school finds out about this, they might give her a major demerit or even expel her! After all, she dared to go to the operating table without even a medical license. What if the patient's family finds out that she is not qualified? Wouldn't that cause a huge uproar? Of course, we can't blame anyone else. She has always been so audacious and reckless, ignoring all advice."
Chen Jun quickly pried her hands off: "You need to be careful when you're out; it's not a good influence."
He thought for a moment, then solemnly warned her, "Don't go around talking about this before it's settled. I've already called the dean, and he said he'll talk about it after he comes back tomorrow to verify the situation."
"Don't worry, she's your classmate, I know what I'm doing. She was just trying to save lives, and besides, it was really dangerous for the pregnant woman to be transferred to another hospital at that time, but fortunately the outcome was quite good."
Chen Jun thought Wu Yutong was worried about Shi Huai'an, so he quickly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I won't let a good person suffer. If the dean gives any excessive punishment, I will speak up for her."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yutong felt a surge of anger rush to her head, her head was buzzing, her body swayed a few times, and she almost fainted on the spot.
She cursed inwardly: "Hmph! This guy is utterly useless! Not only is he completely incompetent, but he also loves to meddle and always messes things up when it matters. He's never reliable in a single moment!"
However, despite her anger, she couldn't think of any better way to deal with the situation, except to pace around anxiously in place.
You see, she's too embarrassed to say her true feelings directly.
After all, that sounds really weird—I don't want Shi Huai'an to be happy; I'd rather she be infamous and ruined...
Just thinking about saying these words made Wu Yutong feel embarrassed; it didn't fit her gentle and kind persona at all.
After a brief moment of thought, Wu Yutong's eyes darted around, and a subtle, sly smile appeared on her face.
Then, she calmly and indirectly said, "Actually, as medical students, we should always adhere to certain principles and bottom lines no matter when or where we act."
Even when dealing with a fellow alumna like Shi Huai'an, if she has indeed made a mistake, we have a responsibility to help her correct it in a timely manner.
After all, she's still young and inexperienced, so making mistakes occasionally is inevitable. As long as she recognizes her mistakes and sincerely repents, she probably won't make more serious errors in the future.
Conversely, if we choose to turn a blind eye to or even condone their wrongdoing, the consequences could be disastrous. Therefore, isn't this approach also a form of care?
After listening, Chen Jun nodded slightly in agreement and said, "Wow, I really didn't expect that! You're so insightful! What you said is excellent! We comrades should help and care for each other!"
As he spoke, his eyes began to sparkle, and his emotions grew increasingly agitated, his voice unconsciously rising a few decibels: "Your fellow alumnus is truly exceptionally talented! Do you know? This is the first time our department has performed a cesarean section!"
I feel incredibly honored to have witnessed the whole process! It's just a pity she's not a full-time employee of our clinic; otherwise, our clinic could definitely have taken another big leap forward!
Hearing this, Wu Yutong, who was standing to the side, secretly scoffed: Look at this guy, he's so cocky, he's like a madman!
She was so angry she almost ground her teeth to powder, but she couldn't lash out on the spot. So she could only suppress her anger, roll her eyes, and silently turn and leave the room.
As she walked out, she spat inwardly, thinking resentfully: "Hmph! What a hopeless case! No wonder my sister is so determined to call off this engagement!"
This guy's thinking and comprehension abilities are simply abnormal, beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Not only can he not help at all, but he is also a first-rate master of doing the opposite of what he's supposed to do!
I imagine there are very few people who can communicate with him on the same wavelength.
If someone like that could have a smooth and successful career in officialdom and rise through the ranks, it would be utterly ridiculous and unbelievable!
Around nine o'clock at night, the darkness was like thick ink, so deep that it couldn't be dissolved, shrouding the whole world in darkness.
The temperature seemed to be suddenly pulled down by an invisible hand, dropping sharply.
Wu Yuwei was wearing a rather thin cotton-padded coat. She loved to look beautiful, but she didn't expect the weather to change so quickly. The cold showed no mercy to the beauty and still mercilessly penetrated through the layers of fabric, assaulting her body.
She couldn't help but tremble slightly, feeling cold and shivering.
Several colleagues were also hurrying along with her, their destination the health center.
It turned out that they were going to visit Li Huaijin, who was hospitalized due to illness. Because their performance in the countryside ended much later than expected, they had to choose to go to the hospital on this cold night.
At this moment, the outdoor temperature is shockingly low, as if it could freeze a person's blood instantly.
The biting wind, like a ferocious beast, roared and howled as it swept wildly across the empty streets.
The wind was so strong that people couldn't resist it at all, and could only subconsciously hunch their necks to try to reduce the amount of cold air entering.
At the same time, tiny snowflakes began to fall from the sky. These snowflakes, like countless cold needles, fluttered down and mercilessly lashed at people's faces.
Each snowflake carried a biting chill, stinging one's cheeks as if they were being burned...
Wu Yuwei and one of her male colleagues walked side by side behind several female colleagues, creating a considerable distance between them.
The man was in his early twenties, with slightly wavy hair that gave him a distinctive look. His skin was exceptionally fair, like jade, and shone faintly under the dim streetlights.
Those long, narrow eyes were like deep, still lakes, drawing you in without you even realizing it. His high, straight nose and thin lips gave him an air of both handsomeness and aloofness.
He followed closely behind Wu Yuwei, his steps always in sync with hers. Suddenly, he lowered his voice slightly, but his tone still carried a hint of coldness as he said, "Weiwei, you have to break off your engagement with your fiancé today, or we're breaking up!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Yuwei's body trembled violently, and her already pale face became even more bloodless.
Her eyes widened, filled with helplessness and panic, and she stammered, "No, I love you, believe me, Dong Xingmiao, I don't love him, I love you. Don't force me, why are you in such a hurry?"
Dong Ximiao sneered upon hearing this, then roared in a low voice, "You still want to ask me why? You told me yourself that you didn't have a boyfriend at all, and what happened? Later, your mother actually went to your workplace and spread the word that you were getting married at the end of the year, and that your fiancé was the director of this health center! Humph, what? Are you planning to have your cake and eat it too?"
"Didn't I tell you long ago that I would break off the engagement?! Can't you even give me this little bit of time?" Wu Yuwei's face turned pale with anger. She clenched her teeth, squeezing out each word through gritted teeth. Her angry eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
"What's there to consider about this? If we keep hesitating and dragging it out, it will only make us both more and more passive! Since you can't bear to part with it, then let's break up! I'm telling you, I'm only giving you one chance." Dong Xingmiao was furious, his eyes wide open, burning with raging anger.
"I'm warning you, Wu Yuwei, you'd better call off the engagement right now, and then we'll get married immediately. It's not too late yet. If we delay any longer, and your belly gets bigger every day, we won't be able to hide this anymore!"
Do you intend to hide the truth and marry someone while pregnant? You're really something else; I, a grown man, have been completely fooled by you.
"Think it over carefully. Don't play with fire and get burned. If the fire gets out of control, don't blame me for being ruthless and merciless!" Dong Xingmiao threatened viciously.
Upon hearing these words, Wu Yuwei felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water, and she stood there stunned, unable to utter a single word.
She just kept her head down silently, her hands unconsciously twisting together. After a long while, she murmured, "I told him I wanted to break off the engagement a long time ago, but his mother absolutely refused. She even said that if she found out who broke up a military marriage, she would put them in jail. Later, I had no choice but to agree to the marriage. He was injured and has now retired from the military. I made some inquiries, and now that he has retired, you are no longer considered to have broken up a military marriage, so you should be able to dissolve the engagement, right?"
Wu Yuwei opened her eyes and looked at Dong Xingmiao with deep affection: "I did it to protect you, really, Xingmiao, it's you I love."
Seeing Wu Yuwei's appearance, Dong Xingmiao's anger flared even more.
