"That instance doesn't exist, you'll live to be a hundred years old . I'll have to take care of you then, although I'll be seventy-five when you're eighty . The thing that'll never change is how much I love you," Zhixin humorously said .
"Mhm, then I have nothing else to say . You should go back to sleep, I have to go home . "
"Okay, good night Sis . "
Zhixin unknowingly hung up the call . Huo Mian, on the other hand, started crying again by the community gates . . .
Today, Huo Mian turned into a crybaby . The old her rarely shed tears because her personality was quite cold and distant .
However, for some reason today, she felt grateful for all the people by her side .
Zhixin, Mom, Lingling, Xiaowei, she had both family and friends .
These things gave her warmth that no amount of money could buy . . .
She wanted to call Xiaowei and Lingling, but Xiaowei was too smart . Huo Mian was afraid that she would become suspicious and mess up her plans for tomorrow .
As for Lingling, she took care of Huo Mian last night and was probably already asleep . Huo Mian didn't want to bother her .
Half an hour later, Huo Mian stood up and wiped off her tears . She called a cab back to South Side .
"Dr . Huo, you're back . " The nurse calmed down upon seeing Huo Mian come back .
"Mhm, did anyone look for me?"
"Yea, Director Wu and President Huo . "
"President Huo?"
"President Huo Siqian . "
"Oh, what did they say?"
"Nothing, I told them that you were already asleep, so they didn't come in . "
"That's good . "
Huo Mian opened the door, went into her room, and changed into her patient's gown . Then, she crawled obediently onto the bed .
"I am going to check your temperature and take your blood, Dr . Huo . "
"Okay . " Huo Mian sat still and let the assistant do whatever she wanted .
Then, she didn't think about anything else that night and went into deep sleep . She was determined to get all the rest she could .
- The next morning -
Huo Mian woke up at six in the morning . After washing up in the washroom, she took out some ladies' cigarettes that she got from the downstairs convenience store .
They were thin, mint-flavored cigarettes .
Zhixin knew about this, she didn't like to smoke, she only did it when she was under great stress and had no idea what to do .
She leaned on the washroom wall and smoked cigarette after cigarette . She finished at least half a box . . .
However, she didn't speak a word, nor did she cry . In her eyes were calmness and determination that she never had before .
She smoked until she heard knocking sounds, so she brushed her teeth and rinsed her mouth before leaving the bathroom .
"Dr . Huo, Director Wu, and the others want to see you in the conference room . "
"Okay . " Huo Mian nodded .
She brought along the milk and eggs that her assistant had prepared for her . She drank while walking .
When she got to the conference room, she had finished both the milk and egg .
Today, she looked more energized than ever . . .
"Director Wu, Dr . Feng, Dr . Xu . " She walked in with a smile on her face .
"Huo Mian, sit . "
"Mhm . " Huo Mian nodded and sat across from the three authoritative figures .
"Did you think it through? Do you want the surgery? If you agree and sign, we can start in an hour . "
"I agree," Huo Mian calmly said those two words .
Director Wu nodded, he knew that Huo Mian would eventually agree to the operation .
After all, if they don't take out the bullet, they faced the danger of Qin Chu dying any time . It didn't matter if they acted bravely or cowardly, the results were all the same .
They should just be quick with it, although the possibility was low, everybody would be happy if the surgery was successful .
"Director Wu, I have a condition," Huo Mian added .
"Okay, tell me . "
Scanning the aged faces of the three men, Huo Mian said in all seriousness, "I want to take part in the operation, and I want to be the lead surgeon . "
"What?" Director Wu was completely shocked .
The other two men were no better… It was completely out of their expectations that Huo Mian would pose such a shocking request .
Did this twenty-four-year-old young woman just say that she wanted to be a part of the surgery, and even be the lead surgeon?
