Chapter 67
Editor: Cazhe
Lan Xue’s initial impression of the hospital was full of disinfectant . Dad took her to the hospital . A group of uncles in white coats kindly gave her delicious food . Dad went out and was busy . She sat on a high chair and watched the doctor uncles treat various patients .
Some of the patients’ faces were sad and some were full of hope . At that time, little Lan Xue didn’t understand . All he knew was that when they left, they would gratefully say, “Thank you, Doctor . ”
It’s great to be thanked by so many people .
Lan Xue told her father that she wanted to be a doctor when she grew up .
Her mother told her that being a doctor was hard and tired, and she had to work the night shift at night . In any emergency, even if it was late at night, the doctor had to get up from the quilt and rush to get there . Doctors didn’t have a stable holiday and even had to stay in the hospital for the New Years . Just like her father, the New Year’s Eve dinner should have been eaten together with the family, but he had to operate on a patient with a sudden disease in the hospital .
She asked, “it’s so hard to be a doctor . Does Ah Xue still want to be a doctor?”
Lan Xue was not afraid . She was a little girl at that time . Even if she puffed out her chest, she only reached her mother’s waist . Her voice was tender and crisp . “I want to be like my Dad . Treat patients and save people . No matter how bitter or tired I would be, I am not afraid . ”
Her mother also had to work . Sometimes when she was too busy, Lan Xue had to stay with her father at the hospital, watching her father diagnose a condition, see patients admitted into the hospital, and other patients discharged from the hospital . Her heart was full of longing .
In the future, she will also be an excellent doctor, helping patients get better .
One day, a group of people suddenly came to the door . They splashed paint and cursed at the clean door of Lan Xue’s house . Dad was not there, and little Lan Xue was afraid . She huddled in her mother’s arms and looked at the door in horror .
When there was a lot of noise, her father came back and had an argument with the people outside . Her mother went out to help, was pushed, and fell down covering her chest .
Lan Xue was too scared to cry . She wiped away her tears and her father cried out in despair: “Let me take her to the hospital first, please get out of the way!!”
“You let my son die! You have to compensate! If you don’t compensate today, don’t even think about getting out of the of the building!!”
“Yes!! Compensate! Compensate!!”
The police came and the ambulance came, but her mother wouldn’t wake up anymore .
Lan Xue looked at those detestable people, her heart was filled with fear and disgust .
She doesn’t want to be a doctor any more, no more!
After seeing off her mother, her father would still put on that white coat .
The little child cried and cried, and refused to let him go to the hospital . “Why does Dad save those bad guys? They are bad guys!!”
“They killed mom! Why are you going…?”
The eyes of a man, who was always cheerful and smiling, were bloodshot . He silently looks at his daughter crying and crouches down slowly . His eyes look straight up at little Lan Xue .
His voice was hoarse and ugly, but it was forever engraved in the depths of Lan Xue’s memory, “Ah Xue, father is a doctor, a doctor’s duty is to save lives . ”
The little child sobbed, “but, they would beat dad …”
As a doctor, no one measures how many lives they have saved . They would only attack him frantically after a patient had departed .
This world is so ironic and ridiculous that no one can remember how many people had been saved .
If someone died, even if it is not the doctor’s fault, would be blamed on him .
“Dad, don’t be a doctor, ok …”
“But if everyone stops being a doctor, then who will people come to see if they were ill?”
The man who seemed to have aged a lot in a short period of time, smiled and touched his daughter’s head . He said, “don’t be afraid, dad will work hard and do better and better . This way, they won’t beat dad . ”
Slowly, Lan Xue grew up . Clearly rejecting this environment, she still applied for the medical university .
In front of the woman who wildly grabbed her, she still remembered that at that time the operation was over and the patient’s physical signs were not very good . She followed her mentor to observe, and she carefully noted down everything the mentor ordered .
Lan Xue even remembered that this person smiled kindly and gratefully, “Thank you, doctor . We are really indebted to you . ”
That gentle smile turned into a ferocious face .
“You killed my son! It’s you!”
“My son had a good talk with me before the surgery . After the surgery, he’s gone! Did you neglect your duty and didn’t give my son the best treatment? No less than symptomatic medicine, you knew the expensive medicine! I spent so much money in your hospital . You killed my son . Bah!!”
Lan Xue dodged her waving hand, and the woman’s shrill voice seemed to be cut off and she returned to that summer .
Her mother was rescued in an ambulance, her father’s heart-rending cries, and the cacophony of the family members who made trouble .
At this time, the movement here had attracted the people around, and the doctor who was doing rounds in the next ward came, “Madam, please calm down first …”
“Go away!!”
Obviously, the strong male doctor was not her target . Facing the pale and obviously weak Lan Xue, the middle-aged woman burst into strong hatred .

She also knew that she was no match for the male doctors and Lan Xue who was in front of her was innocent, but she just wanted to vent her anger .
In order to treat their son’s illness, they almost spent all their savings . Although the doctor said they were not optimistic, they still held out hope . After seeing her child die, she couldn’t accept it .
That is her child! She has been raising the child for over ten years . He had just entered high school and his future should’ve been very long .
University, work, marry, have children .
All these should belong to her child …
Such a sensible child, knowing that he had the disease, refused to cure it, saying that it could not be cured anyway, but she was unwilling . Such a clever son, with excellent results, filial piety to his parents, he even came back with a scholarship the other day .
The family sat at the dining table, thinking happily about the future, but why was it her child who got the disease? Why not her!?
They went to the best hospitals and put all their hopes on the doctors, hoping that the child would recover .
Even if it costs all the money they owned .
Staying alive is fine, just stay alive…
She guarded the child in bed, he felt very painful, but he tried to comfort his mother with a smile . She wiped away the tears and collected some money to give to the doctor, hoping that they could be more conscientious towards the child .
“The hospital has regulations, we can’t accept this money . Please take it back, you rest assure, we will try our best . ”
She went back to the ward, feeling uneasy, and praised them to her son on the hospital bed .
“Mom gave them a red envelope, but they all didn’t want it . They must be good doctors, I’m sure they will be able to cure you . ”
She waited hopefully, but then, what did she wait for?
“It’s all your fault!”
The doctor who she once admired and appreciate became a sinner in her eyes . She glanced at the portrait hanging on the corridor out of the corner of her eye, gritted her teeth, and rushed up with her hands raised .
“I’ll sue you! You killed my son!! You murderer! I want you all to go to jail!! I’ll bury all of you with my child!”
“Ah–!”

Seeing that the picture was about to hit the girl, screams rang out, and the nurses didn’t dare to see the picture frame hurt her face, they all looked away .
Lan Xue subconsciously stretched out her arm to block and closed his eyes tightly .
The sound of broken glass shattered through the air, but she didn’t feel the pain .
Her shoulder was covered by a warm hand . She opened her eyes and wanted to see what was going on . A hand gently covered her eyes and her ear was filled with her boyfriend’s deep voice . “Don’t be afraid, it’s all right . ”
After the glass portrait fell away, Wei Mingyan slowly withdrew his arm blocking the portrait . The sleeve of his white coat had been stained red with blood, and he kept his left hand over Lan Xue’s eyes who was trembling .
Drops of blood fell to the ground, and the eyes of the mother who lost her son were full of piercing red . She stepped back in a daze, her expression was no longer ferocious .
Wei Mingyan’s expression was calm, as if he couldn’t feel the pain on his right arm, and he looked at her in the eyes . “Before the operation, Zhao Yan once told me that he hoped not to have this operation . ”
Zhao Yan was the young man who died .
“According to the current level of medical treatment, it was impossible to cure his illness . We have made this clear to you when he was admitted to the hospital . The early treatment itself was very painful . He was only 16 years old, and he was already very uncomfortable bearing this, and what was even more unacceptable to him was the pain that was about to accompany him for a lifetime . ”
“Assuming that the operation was successful, in order to prolong his life, he must be maintained with expensive drugs every day, and there was a 50% chance that the operation would make him hemiplegic . You told him that you would take care of him for the rest of his life, but you never wondered if he was willing . ”
“Doctors are not gods, and there are people we couldn’t save, and there are diseases that can’t be cured . ”
“If I remember correctly, he said something to you before the operation . ”
The woman stared at the calm expression in front of her, as if she had seen through his young doctor, as if she had heard the weak voice of her son .
“Mom, if I can’t wake up, don’t be too sad . At least I don’t have to hurt anymore . ”
“Take good care of yourself and thank the doctor for me . ”
She couldn’t accept the loss of her child . He was so clever and sensible . Yan Yan… He closed his eyes and never opened them again .
Since the discovery of the disease, the whole family had tried their best to cure the disease and lost all their money, but they got such a result .
She couldn’t take it .
All the anger was vented on the doctor, who they were once extremely grateful to .
But what did the doctor do wrong…?
Wei Mingyan was covering Lan Xue’s eyes . She wanted to break free, but her lover, who had always been obedient to her, didn’t move his firm hand .
Almost leaning against the man’s arms, she heard a sad cry in front of her .

“Yan Yan ah! Mother’s Yan Yan!!!”
“How could you!! How could you leave like this?!”
The woman knelt on the ground and burst into tears .
In silence, Wei Mingyan took Lan Xue directly to the nurse’s station .
“Doctor Wei!”
Watching the man with his right arm full of red, several nurses were shocked .
Lan Xue opened her covered eyes and saw the dazzling red .
Looking at the wound that was obviously because of protecting her, her eyes turned red . “Mingyan…”
“Please help me with a tetanus test, hiss…”
The handsome doctor said to the nurse to the side, gritting his teeth, holding scissors to cut open the sleeve, “Ah Xue, help me pick out the glass . ”
Somewhat aggrieved, he threw his head aside, not looking at his own wound, and whispered, “you can help me with the skin test later . ”
Lan Xue had red eyes and carefully picked the glass out with tweezers . Her eyes were blurred by tears and her voice was choked with sobs, “it’s all my fault…”
If it wasn’t for Wei Mingyan, these wounds would have been on her body .
Wei Mingyan turned his head back and looked seriously into his girlfriend’s eyes . “It’s not your fault . It’s my responsibility to protect my girlfriend . It’s what a boyfriend should do . ”
Lan Xue stared at the serious lover in front of her . Her heart was warm, sweet, and a little more distressed .
Before his girlfriend could say anything more, the handsome face of the young doctor wrinkled in pain, “hiss… It really hurts . Ah Xue, I think, although this is my responsibility, but I need a reward to comfort . ”
Looking at the man whose face was wrinkled and intermittently wanted to be rewarded, Lan Xue didn’t know whether to cry or laugh . She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and asked in a choked voice, “do you want to study together?”
“No . ” Wei Mingyan shook his head and moved his left cheek toward the girl . “If it hurts, I need a kiss to feel better . ”
“Of course, it would be better if you kissed me and we study together . ”
Lan Xue was amused by Wei Mingyan’s solemn manner of asking for a kiss . She still had tears in her eyes, leaned over slightly, and imprinted a kiss on the doctor’s white cheek .
“Thank you, Mingyan . ”
She thought, she really didn’t have to be afraid in the future .
