Chapter 296 Extra 16 My family is pressuring me to get married, can I use you as a shield for now?
Being a doctor is really tiring, especially in a large military hospital like ours, where attending physicians and department specialists have surgery scheduled one after another.
The patients we encounter are incredibly diverse, coming from all walks of life. Some patients and their families are reasonable, others are unreasonable, and still others pretend to know everything and frequently make decisions on their own…
These are nothing compared to what's truly worrisome: when a patient goes to the operating table and doesn't come off, the family members go crazy because they don't understand.
Sure enough, our team had just finished one surgery when we encountered a stubborn, fault-finding individual. One of Dr. Du's heart surgery patients had been doing well for the first 24 hours post-surgery, but developed serious problems the very next day and died despite resuscitation efforts!
The patient's son blamed the doctors and nurses, insisting that the nurses hadn't taken good care of his father that night, causing his death, and threatened to break the nurses' legs in revenge! He excitedly brandished a fruit knife and kept kicking the door of the nurses' station.
The nurses' station was full of women; how could we dare open the door for him? We had just finished a surgery and needed to rest, but we couldn't ignore the situation. I planned to observe for a while before intervening, and try to persuade him if possible.
If I were to take action, he would be bedridden for at least a few days. Just imagine, a female doctor who saves lives suddenly transforming into a chivalrous hero who defeats an enemy with a single move—it really has a huge impact on my noble image of being a skilled and benevolent doctor!
But someone had a stronger sense of justice than me. Seeing the situation, he ran out of the way incredibly fast—it was the talkative and kind-hearted Comrade An Yiping. He rushed over to pull the patient's family member away, completely oblivious to any safety precautions!
He must have never encountered this situation before; he had no experience! If you're going to pull someone away, you should at least grab the hand holding the knife! This idiot actually grabbed the man's clothes from behind!
The man was getting annoyed because he couldn't kick the door open when someone pulled him from behind, grabbed his neck by the collar of his shirt, and swung his knife backward!
An Yiping couldn't dodge in time, and a cut was made on his white coat. Fortunately, the cloth covered it up. The fruit knife wasn't sharp enough, and it only cut a layer of skin. However, bright red blood rolled down, staining a large area red. It was very conspicuous on the white coat and quite creepy!
A group of patients' family members who were watching screamed and scattered, and the corridor was in chaos!
The patient's family member who committed the crime was also stunned. He stubbornly believed that the nurse had neglected her duties, that she was just venting her emotions, scaring people, and asking for some compensation, and that she did not intend to kill anyone!
An Yiping didn't cry out even though he was injured. He went straight for the knife in the man's hand. What a reckless fool! He tried to take the knife away, but the man instinctively resisted, gripping the knife even tighter as he fought back!
Seeing this situation, I decided to stop talking and start kicking! I can't let that idiot An Yiping get slashed a few more times. If he hurts his tendons, his career as a surgeon is over!
With a leap, I jumped over the nurses' station counter, kicked the fruit knife out of the patient's family member's hand, and then slammed him against the wall with a spinning kick. The guy passed out immediately!
An Yiping stared at me with wide eyes, not expecting my actions to be so decisive and efficient!
"Senior, if I had known you were this good, I wouldn't have rushed forward!"
He clutched his arm, seemingly oblivious to the pain. "No wonder the upperclassmen all say you sisters are the most dangerous people in school..."
"Shut up! You idiot! How can you be so brainless? Are you trying to help or make things worse? You don't need my arm anymore!" I glared at him fiercely.
At this moment, several female nurses came out from the nurses' station and saw what was happening outside through the glass window. The nurse who was being chased and shouted at was crying as she took disinfectant and gauze and bandaged An Yiping's wound.
"Call the police! This guy needs to be taken to the police station. He committed a crime in broad daylight in the hospital, injuring one of our doctors. We can't let this go so easily!"
I instructed another person to call the police, and I also glanced at the patient's family members who were watching the commotion, saying, "I hope everyone can act as witnesses and truthfully report what just happened!"
"Don't worry, doctor, we will absolutely report the situation truthfully!"
"Yes, yes, if everyone brandished a knife at the doctor, who would want to be a doctor and save lives!"
Someone had already called the police when the incident occurred. When the police came, they took the man away. His family members cried and begged for leniency, asking An Yiping and the nurse not to pursue the matter, given that there was a deceased person in their family.
After investigation, the hospital was found not responsible, the surgery was successful, and the doctor instructed him not to experience significant emotional fluctuations during the recovery period. However, the day after the patient was out of danger, a long-lost relative visited. They chatted for over half an hour, reminiscing about the past and becoming emotionally agitated, and the family did not stop them!
This triggered an adverse reaction. The nurse, during a routine check, noticed the seriousness of the situation and immediately notified the on-duty doctor for emergency treatment, but ultimately they could not save the patient. The patient's son was heartbroken and blamed the hospital nurses for negligence, leading to the scene where he chased after the nurse, attempting to assault her!
An Yiping and I were praised for our act of bravery. From then on, he looked at me with fervent admiration and kept pestering me to teach him some real skills.
I casually taught him a few moves. I don't usually teach internal energy cultivation techniques. I didn't expect this person to actually have a talent for martial arts, but it's a pity he started too late!
My mom is almost retired, and when she's on vacation, she goes to Yanshi to take care of her two grandchildren. She also comes to visit me occasionally. I rented a small two-bedroom apartment near the hospital, and my mom stays here when she comes. She feels sorry for me being so busy, so she cooks delicious meals for me, and brings me food when I work overtime.
She noticed An Yiping, who was always following me around, and found him increasingly pleasing to the eye. In short, she thought he was a good guy and could become her son-in-law. An Yiping was cheerful, optimistic, and talkative, and he was indeed very kind to me, but I was three years older than him, so I didn't think about it that way!
When An Yiping saw my mom, he was incredibly attentive. No matter how busy he was, he would always find time to accompany her shopping, to malls, and to sample local delicacies. I feel like he's becoming my mom's best friend! Actually, we're pretty much like best friends in general!
An Yiping: Hehe, I don't want to be your best friend. I'm male and I like women! I've never seen such a dense woman as you, senior!
How was I supposed to know he had such feelings? He didn't even confess his feelings, and I'm not the kind of person who makes unfounded assumptions!
Another Spring Festival is approaching, and my twin sister Yuling has already started preparing for her wedding. She really hopes that we can get married together, but my own plans are still far from being finalized!
"Senior! Can you... do me a favor?" An Yiping stammered.
"What are you busy with?" I asked, puzzled. When did this kid become so shy? Look at his face, it's all reddish-black.
"My family's pressuring me to get married, can I use you as a shield? Look, your family's pressuring you to get married too, so if we can each use each other as shields, neither of us will have to worry about our families pressuring us, right?"
"That's a good idea, I'll think about it!"
As a fake couple, we met each other's parents and received their blessings. Both families were very satisfied with each other, so they quickly contacted each other and even discussed several wedding dates for us to choose from!
Looking at An Yiping's sly smile, I belatedly realized, what kind of excuse is this? He's afraid that if he doesn't confess his feelings, I'll beat him to a pulp, so he came up with such a clumsy pretext!
An Yiping! Just wait and see how I deal with you!
