Financial freedom starts with the pursuit of a cool female doctor

Chapter 118 He hesitates to speak
Noticing that Zhuo Tong seemed to have noticed the change in her expression, Bai Wei immediately composed herself and reverted to her usual aloof and superior demeanor as Doctor Bai.

"Mr. Zhuo, could you come out for a moment?" After saying that, he turned and walked out of the ward.

Even in front of Zhuo Tong's family, her tone remained commanding and brooking no argument.

Seeing that Zhuo Tong was still standing there and showed no intention of following them out, Chen Qiuhong gave Zhuo Tong a reproachful push on the back:
"What are you standing there for? The doctor is telling you to go out, didn't you hear? Go now, go now."

Zhuo Lingshan also joined in the commotion:

"Yeah, bro, what if they have something important to tell you? Don't be so rude."

Zhuo Tong rolled her eyes at her sister, wondering what had gotten into her.

Although the siblings often bicker, it's all just playful banter and they never really get angry; it's all just teasing.

Why has this guy changed his ways today and is now helping Bai Wei to oppose him?

Or did the two exchange contact information and secretly form some kind of illicit alliance of interests?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Even if Zhuo Lingshan is that kind of person, Bai Wei wouldn't go along with her nonsense.

Besides, what is Zhuo Lingshan's purpose?
Does she feel happy watching her good brother being tormented by another bad woman?

What a misfortune for our family!
Zhuo Tong sighed, shook his head, and followed them out.

Before leaving, he was even criticized by his mother, Chen Qiuhong:

"Why are you sighing? Meeting Dr. Bai is a blessing for our family. If you keep sighing, you'll just be sighing away your good fortune. You should keep smiling and happy."

After stepping out the door, Bai Wei put her hands in the pockets of her white coat and casually leaned against the wall in the corridor.

His eyes were lowered, his expression was indifferent, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

"Dr. Bai, just tell me what's wrong."

Upon hearing Zhuo Tong's voice, her dark, dull eyes finally regained some light:
"I'm not going to help anymore."

Zhuo Tong was taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly recalled that Bai Wei had mentioned the assistance she had received.

Originally, she was supposed to go to a hospital in another city for a period of time to provide assistance.

In addition to helping the hospital's doctors complete a relatively difficult surgery, they also need to attend various academic conferences and exchange experiences.

However, when she said she wanted to give up the assistance, I was naturally strongly opposed.

"Why? But what about that patient's surgery?"

“I arranged for another doctor to perform the surgery. He is also very capable, and the surgery is more than a task for him.”

Zhuo Tong hadn't expected Bai Wei to be so nonchalant, changing people so readily, but she still wanted to try and salvage the situation a little longer:
"Uh... well... but didn't you already decide on the candidate? Wouldn't it be bad to change your mind at the last minute?"

"No, the dean agreed, and he won't say anything."

"I'm referring to the doctor who took your place in the assistance program."

"Him? He wouldn't dare to object."

Goodness, it sounds like this hospital has become a place where you have absolute power.
Other doctors were pulled into the front lines by you to be treated like pigs and laborers, and they didn't dare to utter a single complaint.

Even the dean who arranged this matter readily agreed and had no objections.

If I didn't know this was Shenzhen University General Hospital, I would have thought it was called "Baiwei University General Hospital" after hearing you say that.

Bai Wei glanced at her watch, her expression turning serious, and she spoke much faster, as if she were in a hurry:

"Listen carefully, Auntie's condition is not serious and the surgery went smoothly. It's just that she is physically weak and needs more time to rest."

"You'd better not let her move out for at least a month, and you can't make her do any work, no matter how light or heavy, understand?"

When it comes to serious matters, Zhuo Tong certainly wouldn't be careless in the slightest:

"Okay, I understand. If there's nothing else, I'll head back to my room." "It's alright."

Bai Wei nodded, took a step back and then stopped, but the first word she had just uttered also stopped abruptly:
"I……"

"Hmm? Is there anything else you need, Dr. Bai?"

Zhuo Tong turned her head. She must have heard her say something, but the voice was too soft for her to hear clearly.

But it's obvious without even thinking that she has more to say.

Otherwise, with such a small amount of content, why would it be necessary to deliberately avoid the mother and sister and have a private conversation?

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that she did not want her mother and sister to know that she had other private contacts with him.

But more likely, she has something more important to say.

"It's nothing, just take good care of Auntie."

After saying that, she hurriedly left.

Although his steps seemed hurried, he still maintained a composed and relaxed demeanor, which, I must say, was rather handsome.

The premise is that she doesn't keep worrying about her health.

"If you don't want to say it, forget it."

Pushing open the door to the ward, I saw Zhuo Lingshan peeling apples from a fruit basket, chatting and laughing with Chen Qiuhong.

How long has it been since I've seen such a heartwarming scene?
Feeling that long-lost sense of emotion, Zhuo Tong smiled from the bottom of her heart:
"mom……"

"What are you still standing here for? Go to work!"

Chen Qiuhong turned her head, the smile on her face vanishing instantly, and she kept making a shooing gesture towards Zhuo Tong:

"Mom doesn't need you to take care of her here. Just focus on your work. Earning money is already so hard, so don't worry about anything else."

Although she spoke sternly, she actually wanted to relieve Zhuo Tong of his stress.

You can't expect him to come to the hospital to be with you after a hard day's work.

She had already burdened her son far too much in the past, and now that his life was just beginning to improve, she certainly couldn't repeat the same mistakes.

“Yeah, bro. Anyway, I don’t have any classes today since it’s the weekend, and the hospital is close enough to the school, so I can just come and keep Mom company.”

Seeing that both of them said so, Zhuo Tong could only nod in agreement.

Although I didn't really have much work to do, I delegated most of the odd paperwork to Qi Shuangxue.

However, besides her daily workout routine, she also planned to take Wang Wei to visit Liao Gang's Hongxing factory in the afternoon.

"Okay, I'll be going now. This ward is big enough, and there's a bed you can lie down and rest. Don't overwork yourself."

"Don't worry, I'm already eighteen years old. Do you think I'm still a child who hasn't grown up?"

"What are you saying? In Mom's heart, you will always be my children."

Zhuo Tong laughed and flicked Zhuo Lingshan's forehead hard with two fingers, as a small act of revenge.

"Brother, what are you doing!"

"It's nothing, I'll be going now. Let me know if anything happens."

"Okay, be careful on the road!"

Watching Zhuo Tong's departing figure, so sturdy and reliable, yet somewhat familiar.

Chen Qiuhong's brows finally relaxed.
