Chapter 9 - Her Past

Walking out of the operating room, before Lin Sitong could even regain her footing, the patient who was previously in charge of the patient's family shot over like a cannonball, grabbing onto her arm and started shaking: "Doctor, did the operation work? Is my dad okay? Ah? Doctor, why aren't you speaking?! Did my father fail the operation? I said, you're a new doctor and a woman, what can you do? Let me tell you, if only my dad …! "

"Your father is already fine. If you don't let him go, then something will happen to the Dr. Lin." Pei Qingheng said coldly.

"It can be said to be very successful." Lin Sitong heaved a sigh of relief. She really wanted to throw a supercilious look at this idiot in front of him, but it was a pity that she was a doctor.

"Really? Don't lie to me! "

"Sir, I'm a doctor, not a skit actor. What's the good of lying to you?" If she hadn't had eight consecutive hours of surgery, she would have already been dizzy and would have had to teach this ignorant brat a lesson.

"Really?! Great! Thank you, Doctor! Thank you very much, thank you very much! " When this young man became happy, he grabbed Lin Sitong and shook him for a long time.

"Ya!" Lin Sitong was not able to stand steadily and fell to the ground. She held onto her ankle and furrowed her brows in pain.

The long period of surgery had already exhausted her physical strength. The first time she was shaken, she was already dizzy and dizzy. Before she could react, the young man in front of her gave her a second shock.

"Stone!" Pei Qingheng frowned, he walked over and knelt on one leg, his hand grabbing hold of her ankle. He squinted his eyes, and after inspecting the situation, he spoke with an even colder tone: "You have a sprain wound, but it should not have any bones, let me bring you back to the office."

Lin Sitong was startled, if she had not heard wrongly, he was calling her … Stone? Was their relationship that good? Why did it feel like he was calling out to someone familiar? Why did it feel like she had been called out countless times?

The young man was also shocked. Both of his hands still moved in an attempt to shake Lin Sitong, and he dumbly stood there, looking at her in embarrassment: "It can't be … Because of me? Dr. Lin, sorry, sorry … "

"Out of the way!" Pei Qingheng directly carried Lin Sitong, and looked coldly at the young man. Her entire body was releasing a frightening aura, and her eyes were frighteningly cold.

His attitude did not change at all. The man seemed to be someone with status, but when did he receive such treatment? He could not stand it any longer and stood there with his neck erect, saying, "What kind of attitude is this? This is the attitude that you, as a doctor, should have when facing the family members of a patient?! "

Pei Qingheng squinted his eyes dangerously, took a step forward and approached that man, relying on his height advantage, he looked down at him from above: "Attitude? I don't think there's any problem with my attitude towards a person who insults a doctor before and attacks him personally after an operation. "

The man's face turned red and his eyes turned a little evasive. However, he still forced himself to say, "I …" I didn't mean to. Besides, I've already apologized. "

"Apologizing is enough? "Then I apologize for my attitude just now. Can you scram now?"

"Hey, you …!" You with the surname Pei, don't think that you can become so arrogant just because you have some skills, do you believe that I will complain to your President about it?! "

"Sure." Pei Qingheng said indifferently, he carried Lin Sitong and wanted to bypass him.

However, it was clear that this man did not intend to let them through just like that. He opened his arms wide and stood in the middle of the road to block them.

Nestled in Pei Qingheng's embrace, Lin Sitong could clearly feel the coldness of the man she leaned against become even stronger than before. Although she didn't know why he was acting this way, but if she didn't stop him, then what happened next would be beyond her imagination.

"That... This mister, I apologize for what Director Pei said just now. He's just had an operation and may be in a bad mood. " She hurriedly spoke out, cutting off the flame that was about to explode.

Pei Qingheng frowned in displeasure, and lowered his head to look at her, obviously questioning her on how she looked.

However, they did not know that her anxious and obedient appearance was like a gentle breeze that blew away all the hostility in Pei Qingheng's body.

Seeing Lin Sitong's swollen ankle, a look of guilt surfaced on her face, but she still stuck her neck out and with a proud look: "What a joke, a doctor can vent his anger on our patient's family if he's in a bad mood? Do you even have the slightest bit of medical ethics?! Of course, I admit my mistakes. I won't go back on my words about hurting Dr. Lin, I'll definitely take responsibility for it to the end. "

Lin Sitong felt like her head was about to explode the moment she heard those two words, and immediately waved her hand: "No need, Sir, it's just a small wound … And … "Already..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the last syllable was lost in the cheque the man handed her.

The white check was still fresh. She had just seen the man sign it herself. A strand of anger appeared in Lin Sitong's eyes. She squinted her eyes and stared at the white piece of paper in front of her, then coldly asked: "What is the meaning of this?"

The man laughed: "This is my compensation to Dr. Lin. If you think it's not enough, I can add more. "

Lin Sitong sneered. Indeed, she loved money, but not to this extent. She had only fallen once when this person sent her a cheque. Adding on what he had said earlier, how could she describe this feeling? It was as if she was deliberately blackmailing him.

It was really uncomfortable.

She expressionlessly took the cheque from the man's hand. Looking at the sight of six zeros behind the number, she couldn't help but mock him. "This mister is truly generous."

The man scratched his head in embarrassment.

But in the next second, with a "Si" sound, Lin Sitong tore the cheque into two pieces and smashed it onto the man's face.

"However, I do not need it. Director Pei, let's go back.

"Yes." Pei Qingheng glanced at that man indifferently, and then left in large strides.

Only the man stood on the spot with a dazed expression. Only after a long while did he regain his senses. He squatted down and picked up the cheque with the two halves. His eyes shone with a trace of brilliance. "Interesting."

In the office, Pei Qingheng helped apply the medicine on Lin Sitong and also sprayed it on her. Seeing that the ankle didn't continue to swell, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. He stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and said, "It's fine, I'll get some anti-inflammatory medicine for you later. "You don't have to walk much during this period. As for the hospital, if you don't want to take leave, I can give you permission to only stay at work."

"Thank you …" Lin Sitong nodded as if he was in a daze.
