To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 511

Chapter 511: Don’t Worry, He’s Not Suspecting Me

After that, she carefully listened to the person on the other side of the phone. The smile on her face didn’t fade.

“Alright, I get it. I’ll be careful.”

“Don’t worry, he’s not suspecting me for now.”

“If you don’t trust me, you can do it yourself.”

Ding Qing’s eyes exhibited a trace of scornfulness when she was smiling, but what was more obvious in those eyes of hers was her confidence.

After ending the call, Ding Qing slowly turned the phone over in her hand and landed her eyes on the desktop picture that she had set on purpose.

It was a picture of Huo Jinyao.

…

Su Qingsang handed her written request for leave to Sui Huiya so that she could sign it. She felt a little guilty. During the two months she spent working in that hospital, she had asked for leave quite a few times already.

Earlier, she had asked for leave to keep Shi Mengwan company, and this time, she needed to go back to Lin City. The leave she asked wasn’t long both times, but still, she felt a little sorry about it.

“It’s okay, I know that you’re from Lin City,” Sun Huiya told her. “Should I give you one more day? You can come back to work on Tuesday, and take some good rest before that.”

Su Qingsang had been doing a good job since she came to the hospital. She cooperated well with her colleagues in all aspects. Therefore, Sun Huiya didn’t mind giving her more off days.

“That’d be great. Thank you, Director Sun.”

After her request was approved, Su Qingsang started thinking about what to buy for Old Master Li and Li Qianxue as gifts.

After all, she would be flying back to Lin City tomorrow. Maybe she should talk to Huo Jinyao about it.

She remembered giving Old Master Huo a parrot as a gift before. Of course, she couldn’t give a parrot to Old Master Li too. She wouldn’t be able to bring a bird back to Lin City anyway.

While she was thinking about that, a pregnant woman who had suffered a car accident was sent into the emergency room. Her condition was a little complicated.

The staff from the emergency room said that according to the records in the hospital, Su Qingsang had treated that woman before. Upon hearing that, Su Qingsang quickly headed toward the emergency room.

Su Qingsang realized that the woman looked familiar.

Only after a nurse put the woman’s hair that covered her face behind her ears, did Su Qingsang recognize that woman. She was none other than Li Hong, the woman who had attempted to blackmail Zhang Yichen about a month ago.

This time, she wasn’t pretending. She was really hit by a car.

“Prepare for the surgery now!” said Su Qingsang to her colleagues, while looking at the woman who was covered in blood.

The driver who sent the woman to the hospital was obviously frightened. He couldn’t stop explaining what happened to the doctors and nurses.

“I didn’t hit her. She rushed up from the roadside. I couldn’t stop the car in time.”

“Stop talking now. It’s not the time to figure out whose mistake it was. We’re trying to save her life now.”

Su Qingsang had no time to talk to the car driver about whether it was his fault or not.

Li Hong was about six-months pregnant the last time she had been in the hospital. Currently, she was over seven-months pregnant. That was not good.

The baby might survive if it got lucky, but without luck, both the mother and the baby might not make it.

Su Qingsang paid no attention to the car driver. After telling her colleagues to prepare the operating room, she wheeled Li Hong into the delivery room as soon as possible.

At the same time, she emphasized to Li Meilin that Li Hong’s family must sign the consent form for the operation when they arrived.

After she finished talking, Su Qingsang followed the others into the operation room. There, she found the patient’s condition to be pretty severe. She had been hit hard by the car. When the accident happened, she had been sent flying a few meters away from the car through the air.

Her womb was ruptured and she was bleeding massively. Su Qingsang had to give her a cesarean as soon as possible.

Su Huiya heard what had happened and soon came to the operation theatre. Su Qingsang looked at Li Hong who was already unconscious from the pain. Then, she shared her thoughts with Sun Huiya.

“Director Sun, her womb has been ruptured. The surgery must be done as soon as possible. And…”

“I get it,” said Su Huiya. The patient’s uterus had to be removed. Under the current situation, all the doctors could do was to try their best to save the baby.

Su Qingsang had been working closely together with Sun Huiya lately. They both understood each other quite well.

Through the surgery and intensive rescue, Li Hong’s baby was finally delivered successfully.

“The baby is doing good. Put her in the incubator for observation.”

After confirming that the baby was fine, Su Qingsang and Sun Huiya started racing against the clock to save Li Hong’s life. Two doctors from the surgery department had come to help them too.

After the cesarean, Sun Huiya checked the patient’s uterus and then said with a serious look, “Qingsang, I’m afraid we have to remove this uterus.”

The patient’s uterus was severely ruptured and had been bleeding the whole time. It had to be removed.

However, Sun Huiya had been a doctor for many years and had met a lot of patients like Li Hong.

Li Hong had a daughter now. It wouldn’t normally be a problem if she had an older kid who was a son, but if that baby girl was her only child…

A family that liked boys and girls equally would accept that, but if her family viewed having sons as better than daughters, they might give the hospital trouble.

“Qingsang, stay out of this. Just leave the rest of it to us.”

All three of them were experienced doctors in that hospital. However, unlike the rest, Su Qingsang started working there merely two months ago.

Precisely, she was still only doing an internship. If Li Hong’s family decided to blame the hospital for the measures that the doctors had taken, the hospital might not punish experienced doctors like Sun Huiya. However, Su Qingsang wouldn’t get away with it very easily.

“Director Sun, stop it. I’m not gonna leave. Let’s finish this surgery together.”

She was honestly touched. She had only been working in that hospital for two months, but she was already so conscientious. Sun Huiya looked at her thoughtfully. Her actions made her really happy.

Su Qingsang didn’t consider herself as doing anything wrong, though. Most importantly, Li Hong’s life wasn’t out of danger yet. Everything else could wait until the woman’s life was safe.

After three long hours of operating, Li Hong’s life was finally saved.

By the time Su Qingsang came out of the operation room, Li Hong’s family had already arrived. This time, they weren’t as fierce as they were the last time.

Li Hong’s husband stood in front of the crowd, and asked her anxiously, “doctor, are my wife and son okay?”

Su Qingsang looked at the man. Hearing the man say ‘son’, she raised her brows slightly.

“Your wife is fine. She just gave you a daughter. They’re both fine.”

“What? Daughter?” The anxiety on the face of Li Hong’s husband was instantly gone, replaced by something else. “How is that possible? I had asked a warlock to give her a look and he said it’s a son.”

Su Qingsang was going to tell him that Li Hong’s uterus has already been removed, so she wouldn’t be able to have another baby. Before she could, she was stunned by what Li Hong’s husband said next.

“Damn it! He said it’s a boy! How did it become a girl? I’m gonna make him pay for that.”

Su Qingsang attempted to stop the man from leaving and asked him to go and check on Li Hong and her daughter, but the man rushed out of the hospital without looking back.

She had been a doctor for many years and could be counted as an experienced one. Still, she never thought something like that would happen.

She carefully thought about it and found it reasonable, though. If Li Hong’s husband was a good man, how could he possibly let his pregnant wife fake car accidents to extort other people?

The current situation made Su Qingsang feel troubled. She turned and looked at Li Meilin.

“Send the patient back to the ward, then find two volunteers to take good care of her.”

Based on the behavior of Li Hong’s husband, Su Qingsang assumed that he wouldn’t come to look after his wife.

“I get it,” Li Meilin said. Before leaving, she looked at Su Qingsang with concern. “Doctor Su, I think I need to warn you about something.”

“What?”

“This patient’s husband is clearly not easy to deal with. Her family doesn’t know that her uterus has been removed yet. When they find out about it…”

She didn’t finish her speech but Su Qingsang knew what she was trying to say.

Su Qingsang patted on Li Meilin’s shoulder and said, “don’t worry. They’ve signed the consent for the operation. Besides, her condition was critical and her uterus had to be removed. If they come back to give me trouble later, I’ll surely talk some sense into their heads.”

If they decided to be unreasonable, no explanation would be needed. The problem would be solved through legal procedures.

Su Qingsang thought about it in a simple way. Li Meilin wanted to say more to her, but she had already left to sort the operation record out and sign her name on it.

Su Qingsan waited until she got off work, but Li Hong’s husband never came back to the hospital.

It wasn’t the first time she had witnessed something like that, but still, she felt uncomfortable thinking about it.

She couldn’t get rid of that bad feeling, not even after she got home.

Li Hong would wake up in the hospital the next day. Su Qingsang wondered how she would feel when she learned about her husband’s reaction.

“You’re home! Come and take a look at these.”

Walking into the door, Su Qingsang finally woke up from her thoughts.

Huo Jinyao didn’t only come home early that day but had also prepared the gifts for Su Qingsang’s family already.

“Come here and take a look.”

“This is for your mother, this for Yuxin, and this is for grandpa. It’s not the actual birthday gift. I’ve ordered the real birthday gift somewhere else. It’ll be delivered straight to Lin City. We’ll pick it up tomorrow and bring it to Li Family.”

“What is it?” Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao’s proud face, and asked with strong curiosity, “what did you get him as his birthday gift?”

“I’m not telling you. All I can tell you now is that grandpa will definitely love it.”

“It’s not another parrot, is it?”

“You think I’m like you?” Huo Jinyao raised his brows slightly, saying it with laughter.

“What’s wrong with being like me?” Su Qingsang didn’t consider that parrot as a silly gift. That bird was very smart! It could even engage in verbal fights with people.

That bird had truly warmed the Huo Family up. Old Master Huo wouldn’t feel lonely again. How great a gift was it?

“Are you saying that my parrot was a poor choice of gift?” Su Qingsang glared at Huo Jinyao fiercely, as though she would kill Huo Jinyao if he said yes.

Huo Jinyao raised both his arms to surrender. “I was wrong. The gift presented by my wife was, of course, the best ever. How could it possibly be bad?”

“That’s more like it.”

Su Qingsang grinned. Since Huo Jinyao had bought the gifts and she couldn’t think of anything better, she decided to accept Huo Jinyao’s choices.

After dinner, they did the packing and put the gifts in the suitcase.

The two of them had an apartment in Lin City, so not many things needed to be packed. One suitcase was enough for both of them.

Thinking about going back to Lin City the next day, Su Qingsang began to feel excited. She soon forgot about what had happened in the hospital earlier that afternoon.

The next day, she got up very early. Yang Wenchang came over in the morning to drive Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang to the airport.

Huo Jinyao got a phone call on their way.
