Chapter 1406: 【1406】Extremely anxious
“Don’t block the doorway, move quickly. Aren’t you going to sleep?” Feng Yicong, unable to see the situation from behind because the doorway was blocked, loudly urged the people in front.
Following Yue Wentong’s gaze, Doctor Dong saw the medical students standing ahead, surprised, and asked Yue Wentong, “Are they your classmates?”
Could they be the patient classmate he just mentioned?
Yue Wentong internally wailed: How unlucky.
Considering that Doctor Jiang did not call Student Pan back to General Surgery Department One to help with the rescue, it indicates that the patient’s situation is likely dire, and calling them might not be significant, rather it might only upset the students.
Seemingly understanding this as well, Pan Shihua sprinted forward.
Seeing this, Xie Wanying picked up his backpack, which had fallen to the ground, and quickly followed.
Feng Yicong, witnessing them both dash off, was puzzled. Exiting the doctor’s office, he asked the class monitor, “Class monitor, do you know what’s up with those two?”
Some things that shouldn’t be overheard were heard. Things that might seem trivial but could cause trouble were not overheard. Yue Wentong felt utterly resigned: After being the class monitor for four years, facing such situations had become a norm. In his next life, no matter what, he wouldn’t be the class monitor for these people.
“Class monitor, why aren’t you saying anything!” Feng Yicong, anxious, snapped at the class leader because he didn’t know whether he should chase after the two classmates.
“Think for yourself.” Yue Wentong tossed the words back to him, not in the mood to babysit this guy any longer. Turning around, he asked Doctor Dong, “Teacher, may I go to General Surgery Department One to have a look?”
“Yes, yes.” Doctor Dong quickly waved his hand, knowing he had made a mistake.
Yue Wentong hurried to catch up with the two classmates in front.
Leaving Feng Yicong still wondering, seeking someone to explain: “What on earth happened?”
From the emergency room, through the outpatient building, to the inpatient department. Late at night in the hospital, the corridors were completely silent, and the sound of running footsteps echoed loudly and sharply in the empty hallways.
The sound of rapid breathing passed through the air.
General Surgery Department One was on the eighth floor, opposite the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department. Elevators were easier to catch at night. Reaching the elevator door, fingers frantically pressed the elevator button. The clattering of the elevator echoed down, with each second feeling slow in anxious eyes. Turning around, Pan Shihua seemed ready to take the stairs if he couldn’t wait. Suddenly, a hand pressed on his shoulder from behind.
“Don’t worry, the door will open soon.”
It was Student Xie’s voice.
With a ding, the elevator door opened. Pan Shihua’s body stiffened and straightened, as if realizing his behavior was inappropriate.
Xie Wanying, carrying his backpack, seeing he wasn’t moving, reached out to pull his arm and dragged him into the elevator cabin.
Inside the elevator, Xie Wanying let the door close and pressed the button for the eighth floor.
Cling-clang, the elevator slowly ascended.
Pan Shihua exhaled deeply, his eyes glancing towards her face.
Xie Wanying’s features, under the elevator light, appeared plain and her calm demeanor made her skin seem like ice sculpture, with no expression flowing, only leaving a stern touch.
Perhaps infected by her demeanor, Pan Shihua’s breathing slowly calmed down.
Ding, the elevator stopped at the sixth floor.
The two of them looked at the number six, not stepping out but waiting for the door to see if anyone would come in.
Indeed, there were people.
Standing at the elevator door were Fu Xinheng and Li Chengyuan.
Xie Wanying and Pan Shihua simultaneously straightened their backs.
Seeing them in the elevator, Li Chengyuan asked, “Aren’t you going home?”
