Chapter 580: He’s Not Worthy
At this moment, he was not only wearing a hat but also a mask, fully covered.
This floor is the ward for inpatients, which is not crowded at the moment, except for a duty nurse at the end of the corridor.
Seeing her, the nurse ran over and pointed at masked Lu Lingche, saying, “Doctor Qiao, that person claims to be your friend and wants to see patient number 517. Is it true?”
Qiao Yin couldn’t help but sigh, and reluctantly said: “Yes.”
Despite the nurse being newly recruited a month ago, she quickly became friendly with Qiao Yin and couldn’t resist gossiping. “Is he your boyfriend?”
“No.”
“Oh, I see. He’s of great deportment, seemed quite a match with you, Doctor Qiao!”
Qiao Yin was a little upset and responded directly: “He’s not, don’t talk nonsense next time.”
Although her tone was not very pleasant, her voice was still gentle. The nurse realised this wasn’t aimed at her, stuck tongue out, replied and then ran back to her duty.
Qiao Yin walked to the front of room 517, opened the door, and went in.
Then, Lu Lingche followed her in.
His voice was indifferent, “Unworthy of you? Is that what you’re telling others about me now?”
Qiao Yin ignored him as if he didn’t exist and continued diagnosing the patient, then started the treatment.
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Lu Lingche had to shut up and stop speaking.
Qiao Yin was highly concentrated while working. Soon, she had completely forgotten about Lu Lingche, focusing solely on observing the patient’s response.
Recently, patient number 517 had experienced nosebleeds after acupuncture, but the amount of blood was decreasing and the color was becoming brighter.
This indicated that he should be waking up soon.
Qiao Yin was slightly excited. Her acupuncture skills were improving, and she had gained some experiences dealing with complex diseases. As long as she continued to study hard, she was certain to make more progress, which would allow her to treat more patients in future.
About half an hour later, the treatment was over, and the patient did not bleed anymore.
Qiao Yin gave a slight smile. The patient’s blood stasis had been completely cleared, he would wake up even with no further acupuncture treatment.
However, if she continued to perform acupuncture on him, he would wake up more quickly.
Lu Lingche had been watching all this time. Seeing the delighted smile on her face, he couldn’t help asking: “You look so happy treating him? You aren’t getting paid, aren’t you? Why are you so enthusiastic?”
Upon hearing his voice, Qiao Yin remembered there was still another person in the ward.
The treatment went smoothly, and she was in a good mood. She casually replied, “I’m a doctor. Of course, I’m happy to see a patient waking up. It has nothing to do with money.”
“It’s good to get paid, but even if I don’t, I would still treat patients who need it. The hospital does provide a regular free clinic for the elderly over 70, don’t they?”
“This patient has been lying here for so long, his family must be very anxious. They might have been looking for him for a long time.”
“If he wakes up and reunites with his family, it would mean less cost for the hospital. He and his family could start a happy life again, which would be positive publicity for our hospital.”
Lu Lingche stared at her, realizing that she was sensible yet sentimental, tough yet kind.
She used to refuse to treat strangers due to her mother’s death. Now after breaking through her emotional block, she started doing her utmost to treat patients, even without compensation, even if they were vegetative with little hope, she never gave up or discriminated.
He had known too little about her before.
He once thought that Lan Yuyi was the kind-hearted one, that Qiao Yin was only after money. Now he realized that he got it all wrong.
The truly benevolent person was Qiao Yin.
He gently said, “You are quite good, Qiao Yin. It was my fault for knowing too little about you before.”
