Ma Kang looked towards the room’s entrance and furrowed his brows. After a few seconds, he suddenly walked towards the room.

Xu Lun was taken aback and hurriedly asked, “Secretary Ma, what are you doing?”

Ma Kang turned around and sneered, “Why would I need to report my actions to you? This Ye Ling might be making a mess of things. I want to see for myself if she’s really capable of performing surgery. Chen Si is a crucial figure in the mine incident. You handed him over to a girl who’s not even twenty, unsupervised. If anything goes wrong, are you going to take responsibility?

Fortunately, I arrived in time!”

Xu Lun was at a loss for words. Ma Kang, who had no medical knowledge, seemed to lack common sense. Surgery requires intense concentration, so why was he disturbing Ye Ling at this critical moment?

In fact, Ma Kang didn’t care about Chen Si’s life or death at all. He even secretly hoped that Chen Si would die on the operating table. In his view, everyone had their own fate, and if Chen Si accidentally died, it was his destiny, completely unrelated to his dark thoughts.

Ma Kang’s hand was just about to turn the doorknob when the door to the room suddenly opened from the inside. Ye Ling’s beautiful face appeared before Ma Kang, but her eyes were exceptionally cold as she looked at him.

“Secretary Ma, isn’t it? Please come in. I’m still in the middle of surgery. If you want to observe, please be quiet later,” Ye Ling said without even glancing at Ma Kang, then turned and went back to the operating table.

Ma Kang was taken aback. In all his years as a leading cadre, he had never experienced such a cold reception. The indifference and mild disdain in Ye Ling’s eyes seemed to have reversed their positions of authority.

It should have been him supervising and judging Ye Ling, but just now, it felt as if Ye Ling were reprimanding him for not being sensible!

“Humph, young people these days have no manners!” Ma Kang felt both annoyed and indignant. However, he also felt that arguing with an inexperienced young girl would lower his own dignity.

Ma Kang snorted and walked slowly into the room, drawing out his words deliberately. “Comrade Ye, I understand that you have good intentions when it comes to saving lives. But as a young girl, you lack the ability. Allow me to give you some advice. Before taking on tasks, you should assess your own capabilities…”

Xu Lun, who followed Ma Kang into the room, was infuriated by Ma Kang’s arrogant and self-important reprimand to Ye Ling. His face turned red with anger.

Didn’t Ye Ling just ask him to stay quiet? Couldn’t he hold back his words for a while?

Chen Si, lying on the hospital bed, also didn’t expect Ma Kang to come over. He looked at Ma Kang with a mix of disgust and anger. If he wasn’t in the middle of surgery right now, he would have given Ma Kang a piece of his mind.

Ma Kang might be the secretary of Willow Village, but he was a member of this village. Others might be afraid of Ma Kang, but he wasn’t!

Ye Ling sensed that Chen Si’s emotions fluctuated due to Ma Kang’s arrival and suspected that these two had conflicts over something else.

Chen Si, being a miner, wouldn’t have known Ma Kang before the mine incident, at most he might have heard of Ma Kang’s name.

Their conflict had to be related to the mine incident.

Chen Si and his friends nearly lost their lives because of Wang Gang’s illegal mining. They certainly wanted to seek justice.

As for Ma Kang, being the secretary of Willow Village, if the mine incident were to escalate, he would definitely bear some responsibility. So, he must have wished to handle the matter quietly.

Could it be that Ma Kang wanted to resolve the matter privately without reporting it to higher authorities?

Ye Ling paused for a moment, realizing she might have guessed the real reason.

After coming down from the mountain, she had been busy with her own affairs and hadn’t thought much about it. At that time, she thought that with the severity of Wang Gang’s actions, the village committee would surely report it to the county government for a serious investigation..
