After leaving the police station, Wei Shuyi went home to take a nap for two hours. Then, he made himself a simple lunch and went straight to the Medical University.
Whenever Wei Shuyi lectured, he had the air of a strategist who was in charge of everything in the world. Usually, his classmates would attentively listen to him in class. However, today, Wei Shuyi noticed a female student staring at him.
Her eyes were shining.
Wei Shuyi had the illusion that he was a piece of pork on a wooden board, allowing others to examine and buy him.
He felt baffled, but he pretended to be calm and continued his lecture.
Gradually, he noticed that more and more students were looking at him. Even though they were not talking among themselves, their burning eyes were too obvious and fiery. Wei Shuyi realized that something was wrong. He wanted to stop teaching and ask them what they were looking at, but he held himself back.
Finally, class ended.
Wei Shuyi immediately threw down the chalk. He used his thumb, index finger, and middle finger to tug at his tie and let out a long sigh. Such a casual action was presented with a seductive charm that made one’s heart race.
Wei Shuyi stopped breathing and pointed at the girl who was staring at him.
As Wei Shuyi used to be a student of the Medical University and was famous for being the most handsome school hunk in the history of the Medical University, he had quite a number of fangirls. He usually carried himself with a cold and aloof demeanor.
As a result, when the girl suddenly realized that Teacher Wei was staring at her and not taking his eyes off her, she felt rather embarrassed. Her cheeks quickly turned red.
Wei Shuyi looked at the girl until her face turned red. Then, he said, “Student, why were you staring at me?” That gaze was as if he wanted to eat her up. It was fierce and cruel.
The girl blushed even more.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Wei Shuyi thought: Could it be that she has a crush on me?
It was no wonder Wei Shuyi was so narcissistic. He knew his face quite well.
Countless people in this school had a crush on him.
He was used to it.
It was just that this girl’s staring was too blatant. It made him feel as if he were naked without any underwear. Yet, he had still pretended to be unaware and seriously lectured on the podium.
The girl stammered, unable to speak. It was the other girl beside her who helped her out. She loudly said, “Teacher Wei, there are two hickeys under your left ear!”
The girl’s voice was not soft.
As soon as these words were spoken, the others vigorously nodded. “Really, it’s especially obvious since they’re together.”
Apparently, after the first girl noticed the abnormality, she had quickly told her deskmate. Her deskmate had told her friend, and her friend had told her deskmate. After that, everyone knew what was going on except Wei Shuyi.
Wei Shuyi was speechless.
Then, everyone saw that their cold and noble Teacher Wei’s face turned red. He closed his notebook and forgot to put it into his bag as he strode out.
He was furious.
Seeing him run away, the students in the classroom first looked at each other, then started to discuss and express their opinions.
“So even Teacher Wei is shy!”
“Who said that Teacher Wei has a cold personality? I think Teacher Wei and Mrs. Wei are getting along pretty well…”
“I think Teacher Wei looks so cute when he’s angry and shy.”
“Yeah, right.”
“Sigh, I also want to bite Teacher Wei’s neck…”
“Dream on! You can just think about it and wake up.”
Wei Shuyi returned to his office and sat on a chair. It was as if a fire had been lit under his butt. He was restless.
Teacher Xu’s desk was behind him. She saw that Wei Shuyi’s ears were slightly red and his body was still moving from time to time. Teacher Xu did not forget to show his colleague love and asked him with concern, “Teacher Wei, are you feeling unwell?” Looking at his sitting posture, Teacher Xu could not help but think that it could be his hemorrhoids acting up.
Wei Shuyi turned around and stared at Teacher Xu for a moment before softly asking, “Teacher Xu, do you have a band-aid?”
“Are you bleeding?”
Teacher Xu was very surprised. She quickly opened her bag and took out a few band-aids that had a girly heart design.
That’s strange. How can a band-aid be used if he has hemorrhoids?
That scene was too colorful. Teacher Xu did not dare to think too deeply about it.
Wei Shuyi took the band-aid and stared at the Hello Kitty design on it. His expression was really hard to read.
Wei Shuyi walked into the toilet with the band-aid he borrowed from Teacher Xu.
He tilted his head toward the mirror and revealed his neck. As expected, he saw the two hickeys below his left ear. They were very faint, but anyone with eyes could tell that they were a product of kissing and not left behind by mosquitoes. In fact, after waking up in the morning, Wei Shuyi had checked his body. Last night, Jiaren Wu had deliberately kissed him. He didn’t want to leave any traces and had even reminded her.
In the end…
Jiaren Wu was still that shameless Jiaren Wu. It was Wei Shuyi who was too weak.
After finding the right angle, Wei Shuyi placed the band-aid on the hickey.
Wei Shuyi frowned again.
He stared at the Band-Aid in frustration with his hazel eyes.
The existence of this band-aid was simply a blatant attempt to hide the truth.
Wei Shuyi raised his eyebrows in frustration. In the end, he tore off the band-aid.
There were no more lessons. He planned to go home.
On the way home, Wei Shuyi was thinking about how he should punish Jiaren Wu when he got home. Should I forbid her from going to bed with me, or should I not cook her food?
Before he could come to a conclusion, he received a call from Chen Anyuan.
“Xiao Yi, there’s a complicated cardiac transplant surgery in our hospital today. Your Teacher Xu is the chief surgeon. Do you want to come over and take a look?” Although Chen Anyuan was the chief physician of the Cardiology Department, Wei Shuyi specialized in the Cardiovascular Surgery Department. It was very rare to come across such a surgery, so Chen Anyuan wanted him to come over and learn from him.
Wei Shuyi was a little moved. Mixed heart transplant surgeries involving pre-existing heart diseases were rare. Currently, there were only a few cases of successful transplantations in the country.
“Six o’clock.”
“Okay.”
It was already four o’clock in the afternoon. Wei Shuyi sent Jiaren Wu a message telling her where he was, then went straight to the hospital.
Deep Sea Hospital was a famous private hospital in the country.
An endless stream of patients and family members came in and went out of this hospital every day. Wei Shuyi parked his car and went straight to find his teacher, Chen Anyuan. Chen Anyuan was not around at the moment. Wei Shuyi stayed in Chen Anyuan’s office alone for more than half an hour before the latter arrived.
“Xiao Yi, you’ve been here for a long time?”
“No. I just got here.”
“I had gone to a meeting.”
Wei Shuyi poured Chen Anyuan a glass of pure warm water. Chen Anyuan took a sip and said, “This patient is a little special.”
“How so?”
Chen Anyuan answered, “His status is special.”
Wei Shuyi raised his eyebrows. “How special is he? Is he the governor or part of the provincial party?”
Chen Anyuan lowered his voice and said, “The son of a certain chief.”
Wei Shuyi’s expression changed.
He was silent for a moment before saying, “Are they confident?”
“Old Xu said he’s confident.”
Old Xu was the department director of the Cardiovascular Surgery Department, and he was also an expert in the National Cardiovascular Surgery Department. He had been in America for many years and specialized in researching heart problems. Wei Shuyi nodded and said, “If Senior Xu says that he has the experience, then he has experience.”
“Hey, you used to be his favorite student. Who knew you…”
Chen Anyuan shook his head and continued, “Six years ago, after that young master underwent a complicated double-sided Glenn procedure overseas, he started to feel weak and his lower limbs were swollen. His condition worsened every year until one year ago. Then, his physical activity was completely restricted, and he could not move. His lower limbs were also severely swollen…”
When Chen Anyuan saw that Wei Shuyi was attentively listening, he continued, “The patient’s ventricular gap is far away from the two main arteries. The right part of his heart is failing, and we can’t perform dual ventricular orthopedic treatment. Moreover, he has high pulmonary pressure. This is also a taboo for single ventricular surgeries.”
Wei Shuyi asked, “What about a heart transplant?”
Chen Anyuan shook his head and replied, “The thick side branch of that patient may cause serious complications such as postoperative perfusion of the lungs and difficulty in weaning. We can only perform hybrid surgery.”
Wei Shuyi closed his eyes and simulated the process of the surgery in his mind. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, “This surgery is very difficult, but it’s not impossible. Why did that person send his son to our hospital in the end?”
“It’s still the same thing. With a special status, no one dares to bear a life debt.” It was still the life of that special person’s son.
Wei Shuyi also understood this logic.
“Who did Elder Xu bring?”
“All of them are experts in this field. However, he brought Yuan Jun along this time.”
“Him?” Yuan Jun was Elder Xu’s other disciple. Just like Wei Shuyi, Yuan Jun was also from a medical family. He was highly skilled in the field and was even better than Wei Shuyi. However, this person was more arrogant. He had never encountered any setbacks and was extremely proud.
If this surgery was successful, all of them would receive glory, applause, and gratitude from their patient.
If they failed, then this proud man might not be able to stand up again.
Wei Shuyi shook his head and said, “Old Xu is taking a risk. Bringing Yuan Jun along is…”
“What can we do? His favorite student is a coward.”
The cowardly Wei Shuyi chose to remain silent.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Elder Xu and a group of specialists put on their white coats, disinfected themselves, wore gloves, and walked into the operating theater. Wei Shuyi was allowed to watch from the side because of his special status. When Elder Xu saw Wei Shuyi again, he could not help but roll his eyes. Raising his eyebrows in disdain, he snorted and humiliated him in public. “Why would a coward dare to enter the operating theater?”
He was gnashing his teeth in frustration.
Hearing this, his other old friends did not say anything.
They all knew how much Elder Xu valued this coward.
Only Yuan Jun, who was wearing a mask, lightly scoffed after hearing this.
Wei Shuyi also put on his mask and said to Teacher Xu, “Teacher, stay calm. Don’t let your anger spoil your mood. The surgery is more important.”
Elder Xu grunted again before turning to leave.
When Yuan Jun passed by Wei Shuyi, he softly said, “Trash, you don’t deserve to stand in this operating theater.”
Wei Shuyi retorted, “Don’t hate me just because I’m handsome. It’s not my fault that I’m this handsome.”
Yuan Jun nearly fell to the ground in anger.
He had never seen someone so shameless!
