Ma Kang didn’t expect Xu Lun, who had a timid personality, to be so stubborn. He glanced around, didn’t continue threatening Xu Lun, and instead waved to summon a young nurse from the clinic. In a cold tone, he said, “Tell me, what happened to Chen Si?”
At this moment, Ma Kang was worried that Chen Si might have already died. Therefore, he didn’t dare to enter the ward, fearing that if he found Chen Si dead, it might cause trouble when the police came to investigate later.
The young nurse shrugged, casting a cautious glance at Xu Lun before looking back at Ma Kang. She seemed to think that offending Ma Kang would likely result in worse consequences than offending Xu Lun. After hesitating for a moment, she told the truth, “Chen Si is undergoing surgery.”
Ma Kang furrowed his brow, “Surgery? Who is performing surgery on him?”
As the village committee secretary of Willow Village, Ma Kang was quite familiar with the clinic’s situation. The most skilled medical practitioner there was Xu Lun. But Xu Lun was currently standing right in front of him. Who else could be performing surgery on Chen Si? This couldn’t be a joke, could it?
The young nurse bit her lip, and her voice grew almost inaudible as she said, “It’s Comrade Ye Ling…”
Ma Kang found the name somewhat familiar.
Wait a minute, wasn’t this the woman Min Nan went to the forest farm to find?
Because the incident at the forest farm’s mine had caused quite a stir, Ma Kang had gone to see Li Dong to clarify every detail of the matter. Ma Kang held a higher position than Li Dong, so Li Dong was obligated to report to him. Initially, Li Dong had wanted to conceal Ye Ling’s involvement, but when he mentioned that Min Nan had gone to the forest farm, Ma Kang sensed that something was amiss. He asked, “Why did Min Nan take some police officers to the forest farm? Did he already know about the mine? If so, why didn’t he inform either you or me?”
Li Dong hesitated and thought that it might be impossible to hide Ye Ling’s involvement any longer. Considering that Ma Kang was just a village committee secretary and probably wouldn’t spread this information about a young girl, Li Dong hesitated for a moment before explaining Ye Ling’s situation. He concluded urgently, “Secretary Ma, Ye Ling is also a victim in this matter. wang Gang Insisted on taking ner ana ner mena up tne mountain. ‘I’ms Little Ye is not even twenty years old yet, and she’ll have to talk about boyfriends in the future. Please don’t spread this story, Secretary Ma.”
Ma Kang was relieved to learn that Min Nan had gone to the forest farm for the sake of a young educated youth. He stared at Li Dong wordlessly and said, “Do you think I’m like those village women who can’t stop gossiping? You should reflect on yourself when you get back. How could you think of hiding something like this from me!”
Hearing Ye Ling’s name once again at this moment surprised Ma Kang. What surprised him even more was that Ye Ling was performing surgery on Chen Si?
According to Xu Lun’s report, Chen Sits leg had deteriorated to the point where amputation was the only option. The severity of the situation was quite apparent. However, Ye Ling, a young female scholar of not even twenty, how could she possibly perform surgery?
Ma Kang found this situation more absurd than a fairy tale. Yet, the young nurse’s trembling demeanor indicated that she didn’t dare to lie to the village committee secretary. Therefore, Ye Ling was indeed performing surgery on Chen Si.
Ma Kang fell silent for a couple of seconds and then turned to Xu Lun. “Did you approve of this?”
Xu Lun, with a pale face, hesitated for a moment as he realized that the situation was already exposed. He nodded slightly and hastily said, “Secretary Ma, this was my own decision. It has nothing to do with Comrade Ye. If you need to take action, please deal with me…”
Ma Kang shot a glare at Xu Lun. “You have quite the audacity. If this situation leads to loss of life, who will be responsible, you or me? This is sheer nonsense, letting a young girl treat someone who needs an amputation. What were you thinking?”
Xu Lun weakly explained, “It’s not like that, Secretary Ma. Comrade Ye’s medical skills are far superior to mine. She can perform surgeries that I can’t. I’m not lying to you.”
Logically, Ma Kang didn’t believe Xu Lun at all. It was hard to fathom how a young girl under the age of twenty, who might not even be qualified to work as a nurse, could possess the ability to perform surgeries. However, Xu Lun’s resolute expression left Ma Kang somewhat uncertain.
He looked at Xu Lun with suspicion, wondering if Xu Lun might have been deceived by this Ye Ling..
