“This little girl is really strong, and she’s good at hitting people too.”
“She also has a nice perky butt, so she must be very fertile.”
“…”
Xia Canglan twitched her lips speechlessly. These middle-aged women are so sharp-tongued.
“Oh my god, the old woman has fainted!”
The elderly woman, who had just been kidnapped, clutched her chest and collapsed in pain, startling everyone around her who backed away. No one dared to move her.
Xia Canglan quickly ran over to check on the old woman’s condition.
“Everyone, spread out! Don’t gather here. The patient needs to breathe.”
The old woman’s breathing was very shallow, almost nonexistent. Her face was deathly pale, and her lips were blue.
Seeing this, the hospital director quickly pulled Xia Canglan back from reaching out.
“Comrade Xia Canglan, don’t be silly. Wait for the attending physician to arrive. You’re just a nurse; don’t touch the patient. If anything happens, you can’t take responsibility. Go now.”
“Oh, she’s just a nurse? How can she just casually save someone? Isn’t that endangering her?”
“Yes, what if we delay treatment? She seemed so sensible just now, but now she seems completely unreasonable.”
Xia Canglan: “…” She didn’t want to be here, but seeing the old woman was about to pass out—oh well, it’s none of her business anyway.
The attending physician from the hospital rushed over, squatted down, and when he saw it was the old woman, his face immediately turned grim.
“Dean, this patient—can’t be treated. Her heart condition is deteriorating, and at this stage, there’s simply no way to treat her.”
The dean frowned. “You take a look at her first. The patient is in pain right now, you—”
“Pfft!” The old woman spat out a mouthful of blood, startling the already reluctant attending physician, who shook his head repeatedly.
“No, Dean, I can’t treat this patient. You—find another doctor.”
The dean’s face was ashen; he hadn’t expected to be humiliated by his own doctor in front of everyone.
“Help—help me…” The old woman half-opened her eyes, her face contorted in pain, clutching her chest and reaching out to everyone for help.
She couldn’t—she couldn’t die yet. Her grandchildren were still so young. If she left, they would surely have no chance of survival in that heartless man’s hands. She still wanted to—
Xia Canglan, who had already walked more than ten steps, possessed a special ability and had keen hearing. She heard the old woman’s desperate pleas for help.
She hadn’t expected the doctor to be so incompetent, scared to death by a little blood.
Tsk!
Xia Canglan clicked her tongue inwardly and stopped.
This was a sensitive time. If she revealed her medical skills now, it might not be so easy for her to stay and seek revenge later.
Just as she hesitated, she heard someone behind her exclaim that the old woman was going to die.
Xia Canglan’s hand trembled slightly. She gritted her teeth, thinking, “Fine, I’ll save her first and think of something else later.”
She turned and jogged over, taking off her coat and placing it over the old woman’s head. Looking into her pleading eyes, she said,
“It’s alright, don’t worry, you’ll be fine. Take a breath, breathe slowly. Here, hold my hand, I’ll massage you gently. It might hurt a little, but you have to bear it, okay?”
“Comrade Xia Canglan, do you know what you’re doing?” the hospital director called out, trying to stop her from doing something foolish.
Xia Canglan glanced at him indifferently.
“Director, if you’re going to let someone die at the hospital entrance before any remedial action is taken, I’ll stop now.”
The director paused, remaining silent and not trying to stop her further.
If someone died at the hospital entrance, especially right before his eyes without any medical intervention, he might as well quit being the director.
Xia Canglan smiled sarcastically, grasped the old woman’s hand, and quietly channeled her healing power to protect her heart, gradually repairing her weakened heart.
This way, even if the old woman had heart problems, she wouldn’t be in too much pain, and her condition might even be much better than before.
However, to conceal her true feelings, she massaged her chest and temples while administering the treatment.
After a moment, she exclaimed,
“Hey, the old lady’s face really seems much better! This girl is amazing!”
“Wasn’t this girl supposed to be a nurse? Are nurses in hospitals this capable these days?”
“Pshaw, what nonsense! Didn’t you see the doctor over there was too afraid to treat her? Not everyone is as courageous as this girl, humph!”
The hospital director and attending physician: “…”
The old woman gradually regained consciousness, slowly stood up, and tightly grasped Xia Canglan’s hand.
“Young comrade, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, this old woman would be—young comrade, what’s your name? Which department are you in at the hospital? Where should I look for you in the future?”
Xia Canglan offered a few dry words of comfort to the old woman, telling her her name and department before she finally left the hospital with peace of mind.
The crowd gradually dispersed. Zhou Fumei winked at her, and she went over.
“Lanlan, you’re amazing! You didn’t see how grim their faces were when the director and attending physician left! Hahaha, I never thought you had such a formidable side.”
“Comrade Xia Canglan, the director wants to see you in his office.”
Before Xia Canglan could speak, the head nurse called her over, patting her shoulder with a smile before turning to leave.
Thinking of the director’s expression when he left, she raised an eyebrow. Calling her so quickly—was he trying to warn her not to overstep her bounds?
But what did it have to do with her?
When she arrived at the dean’s office and opened the door, she saw that the dean wasn’t alone; her father and several senior doctors were also there.
“Lanlan, are you alright? I heard about what happened today. You did a great job, and Dad supports you,”
Xia’s father said solemnly after checking that his daughter wasn’t injured.
The dean’s lips twitched involuntarily. “Old Xia, do you want to see what you’re saying? Do you think I would do anything to your daughter? Saying such things to my face.”
Mr. Xia looked at the dean with a serious face .
“Dean, in that situation, if even a specialist doctor didn’t dare to step forward to treat her and let the patient die at the hospital entrance, would you want to see such a scandal?”
“Now someone has stood up to stop this tragedy, what else are you dissatisfied with? If so, come at me, I’m her father, and I think she did nothing wrong.”
The dean: “…..
No, who said I was going to do anything to Comrade Xia Canglan? Who said that? I’ll beat him to death if he stands up!”
An old doctor next to him laughed, “Director Xia, you really misunderstand the dean. If the dean really wanted to make things difficult for Comrade Xia Canglan, he wouldn’t have sent us old guys here. Don’t worry, this is actually a good thing for your daughter.”
Mr. Xia: “…..” Really? Was he impulsive?
“Ahem, so, Dean, what exactly do you want to see Lanlan about? I just came out of the operating room and heard that my daughter was going to be punished by the dean for saving someone, so I—got a little anxious, didn’t I?” Mr. Xia said embarrassedly.
The dean ignored this doting father and looked at Xia Canglan, who was more composed than her father, a dark glint in his eyes.
“Comrade Xia Canglan, was the massage technique you used today really effective for patients with heart disease? Could you teach this method to others? Of course, I won’t let you teach it for free.”
