Chapter 1237: 【1237】The emergency room is really chaotic
Sister Seo arrived, and seeing the situation in the room, immediately realized something had gone wrong. She asked loudly, “Doctor Li, what did he do?”
That man must’ve done something terrible to be caught by the hospital’s doctors.
“What do you think he could’ve done?” Li Chengyuan’s icy gaze shifted back to the scoundrel’s face in front of him. His chilling voice resounded, “Whose hands were you trying to touch?”
The short man could only shake his head vigorously: No, no, no. He wouldn’t dare to touch anyone, not a single one. All the men and women here are like Popeye, untouchable.
Hearing Li Chengyuan’s words, Sister Seo exploded on the spot. Without another word, she took out her phone and snapped angrily, “Call the police. I thought they’d behave, but turns out they’re privately trying to harass the women.”
Upon hearing the mention of the police, the short man’s face changed dramatically. He abruptly broke free from Li Chengyuan’s grasp and bolted out of the treatment room.
Everything happened so fast that several medical staff didn’t have time to react. Li Chengyuan turned, and his fingertips failed to grab the man’s clothes, allowing him to escape.
Sister Seo, seeing this, urgently shouted to a colleague passing by, “Doctor Yin, catch him!”
Having just wrapped up reviewing some surgical cases upon hearing there was an injured patient needing attention, Yin Fengchun had hurried over to assist. As he approached the nurse’s station, he heard Sister Seo calling his name like that. In front of him was an unfamiliar man running straight toward him. No second thought needed, he stretched out a leg.
That leg struck right against the man’s knee. The short man stumbled, almost fell flat on his face, and ended up spinning around before sitting on the ground, gasping for air. When he looked up, he was surrounded by a group of medical staff.
“What do you want me to catch him for? Did he steal money?” Yin Fengchun asked Sister Seo, who had told him to stop the man.
Sister Seo cursed, “He wanted to touch Dr. Xie, was caught red-handed by Dr. Li, and tried to flee when he heard us mention the police.”
Oh boy, this was much worse than simply stealing money. Yin Fengchun’s face darkened like the bottom of a burnt pot. Considering that Xie Wanying was his girlfriend Wu Lixuan’s best friend, dealing with this situation would undoubtedly make things complicated to explain to her. Anger surged uncontrollably within him as he asked, “Where’s Xie Wanying now?”
Did that scoundrel manage to touch her or not?
No, he didn’t. On the contrary, he nearly got his nose broken by that female doctor. The short man wanted to cry.
Hearing this, Yin Fengchun and Li Chengyuan were both initially shocked. Knowing Xie Wanying’s single-minded focus, it was easy to imagine she might not have paid attention to her surroundings while working, almost becoming a victim. Their worry reached its peak.
The two senior doctors didn’t realize she had been reborn and already knew all about the chaos of the emergency room.
The emergency room was truly chaotic. Back at the small hospital where she worked years ago, it wasn’t unusual for drunken brawls or troublemakers to surface every few days. Sometimes, to evade such people, doctors and nurses had no choice but to lock doors and barricade themselves inside, prioritizing their own safety.
The emergency room was often visited by petty thieves, targeting wallets and valuables of patients or staff. Any regular citizen who visited the emergency room was often warned by the staff to look out for pickpockets. The scariest incident was when someone broke into the cabinet for anesthetic drugs at the small hospital, causing widespread panic, and the emergency department head nurse and medicine supervisor nearly lost their jobs.
In short, chaos in the emergency room was real, messy, and filled with all sorts of people. It was far more chaotic than outpatient departments. This kind of chaos gave bad actors an opportunity to commit crimes in the midst of the medical staff’s busy efforts to save lives, resulting in countless incidents of malicious acts.
“Did Xin Yanjun teach her?” Yin Fengchun wondered.
“No,” Li Chengyuan, knowing his colleague well, denied it outright. If Xin Yanjun had taught her, she wouldn’t have been so reckless as to leave her alone in a den of wolves.
The only explanation was that Student Xie was truly fearless, throwing punches at wolves while trapped in their den.
Even so, the two couldn’t help but feel lingering fear thinking about Xie Wanying’s earlier circumstance.
