Chapter 202 — Guan Xuewen's Disciple
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Guan Xuewen was not the sort to presume upon his seniority. Wei Zhao was more skilled than he, and that was that, regardless of age; so Guan Xuewen would never dare to call himself Wei Zhao's teacher.
"All right, I'll hand the phone to the doctor here." Wei Zhao did not explain further, trusting that Guan Xuewen could make it clear.
With that, Wei Zhao gave the phone to the doctor in the ward.
The doctor took it hastily, with a show of reverent trepidation, and glanced at the number on the screen. It was indeed Guan Xuewen's home telephone! Guan Xuewen's home number was known to all of them, the students of the medical university; it was no secret at all — it was printed in the school's contact directory.
Certain now that the man really was Guan Xuewen, the doctor said cautiously, "Professor Guan, this is Wang Liguo from the First People's Hospital — Class of 2003. I was your student!"
Whether or not the man remembered him, Wang Liguo figured that having graduated from Songshan Medical College and sat in Guan Xuewen's lectures was an honor worth boasting about — enough to make others envious.
"Ah, Xiao Wang. Wei Zhao's attainments in traditional Chinese medicine are in no way inferior to my own. Whatever suggestions he makes, just follow them." Guan Xuewen was an honest man and had no wish to become Wei Zhao's teacher for nothing, so all he could do was hint at it vaguely.
"Rest assured, Professor Guan!" Wang Liguo was astonished. It seemed Wei Zhao had already mastered his craft, to earn such praise from Guan Xuewen.
After hanging up, Wang Liguo's attitude changed at once. "My apologies, Mr. Lin. I had no idea you were Professor Guan's disciple. I was most rude just now!"
"It's nothing." Wei Zhao waved a hand. "The situation was urgent at the time; I had no other choice. As for the treatment to come, I'll have to leave that in your hands!"
"No problem at all, Mr. Lin. Rest easy — I'll see to it personally." With that connection established, Wang Liguo would naturally take Lan Zhi's condition all the more to heart.
Song Huiping had thought her one careless remark had caused trouble and brought grief down on Wei Zhao, and she had no idea how to explain herself — yet a single phone call from him had turned Doctor Wang's attitude around, and made him all the more respectful besides.
The most astonished of all, of course, was Tang Zhi. She gave Wei Zhao a puzzled look, but with so many people about, she kept her questions to herself.
"Auntie, there's nothing more to be done here. Xiaobo and I will be on our way, and once Xiaofen's condition has steadied, we'll come back to see her." Seeing that there was nothing left for him here, Wei Zhao rose to take his leave.
Kang Xiaofeng was reluctant to hear it, but after a glare from Wei Zhao he obediently made ready to go.
Tang Zhi and Liu Xinlan naturally stayed behind to look after Xiaofen, while Wei Zhao and Kang Xiaofeng left the hospital.
"Boss, you know acupuncture?" Kang Xiaofeng stared at Wei Zhao in disbelief. He had been dying to ask for ages, but had held it in until they were out of the hospital.
