“Mom is also a doctor; a doctor’s mission is saving lives . ”
“But, Mom, you’re pregnant with our little brother or sister…” Pudding interrupted .
“Um…”
“Sis, you are finally on my side…”
With her elder sister helping her, Little Bean became smug .
“Don’t act like this, okay? You must understand that this is Mom’s job . ” Huo Mian tried to reason with the twins .
“But Dad said you mustn’t leave Dad’s side when you’re on vacation, or you can stay home with us,” Pudding lectured her mom .
“I know . ” Huo Mian was helpless .
“So, will you take Dad to the hospital or will you take us and the bodyguards?”
“I… I’ll take the bodyguards . Don’t worry and wait for me at home . It seems to be raining and it is quite cold . ”
“When will you come home?” Little Bean said with a pout, reluctant to see her go .
“It won’t be long,” Huo Mian soothed them .
“Liar . A cardiological operation takes at least three hours . ” Pudding saw through her mom’s white lie immediately .
“Um…”
It wasn’t easy to live with smart and cute children; they were hard to lie to .
“Mom . Don’t go… There are so many doctors in the hospital . If they can’t do it, it means they are not competent and it’s not your fault . Lately, things are creepily quiet . The bit*h Zhang Manlin hasn’t made a move and we don’t know if she’s up to something . Besides, the crazy woman Huo Yanyan might turn her attention to us after slandering Uncle Gao . So, I think you’d better stay put . ”
Pudding expressed herself with clear logic and precise words .
“Pudding, I understand your concern . But I can’t miss a chance to save people . I’m not Virgin Mary or God, but I’m a doctor whose responsibility is saving people’s lives . If I tried and people still died, it wouldn’t be my fault . But if I didn’t try and people died because of it, I would be very sad, as would their relatives . In this world, the cruelest thing is parting with one’s beloved ones . Living people would feel dejected… I hope I can do my best to help all the patients under my care so long as there’s the slimmest hope to save them . These are the first words I told myself when I entered medical school . ”Read latest chapters at listnovel . com
When Huo Mian said these words, her eyes brightened as if she had returned to the time when she was in school .
She had entered the school with excitement and a dream that looked dumb in other people’s eyes .
Everyone took it for granted that doctors should save people’s lives; it was their job, and they must do the work for the salary they took .
Lately, the media had instigated the public’s hatred and distrust toward doctors, making the profession of doctors lose much of its previous glory .
However, it didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the young people who dreamed to be doctors; they worked hard for their careers despite all the difficulties .
Even though she was now the deputy director, Huo Mian still thought it was her responsibility to save lives .
“Mom… Okay, you win . You have a high EQ and are eloquent… We have to surrender to you . ” Huo Mian’s sincere words finally convinced her daughters . Finally, Pudding admitted defeat .
Watching Huo Mian leave home with the bodyguards, Pudding still felt uneasy .
“Sis, what’s wrong with you? Something’s on your mind…” Little Bean asked .
“I still feel Mom shouldn’t go out tonight,” Pudding answered with fear in her heart .
“Yeah . She didn’t consult with Dad before she went out… I have a bad feeling about it, too,” Little Bean said .
