This trick is actually quite clumsy.
Fortunately, Shi Wan asked for room temperature water; if boiling water had been poured on her, she would have suffered a severe skin injury.
In fact, Shi Wan could see Lu Yanfei's feelings for Xiao En, which was why Shi Wan initially planned to find a seat elsewhere.
But Sean didn't realize it and still arranged for Shi Wan to sit here.
Shi Wan glanced at Lu Yanfei out of the corner of her eye.
Lu Yanfei's face showed undisguised excitement.
Shi Wan's lips curved into a smile.
She simply came to an academic conference to improve herself, but she still ended up being targeted by a girl who liked Sean.
But Shi Wan was never one to suffer in silence. She looked Lu Yanfei straight in the eye and said bluntly, "Dr. Lu, I hope this mistake won't happen again. You should know that I'm divorced, and if I remarry, it will be my second marriage. Dr. Xiao is a fine young man, and his family will never agree to him dating a divorced woman. I know my place, so you don't need to waste your time on me. Dr. Xiao likes positive, sunny girls who help patients. Instead of targeting me, you should work on that aspect. I wish you success in winning over Dr. Xiao soon."
After speaking, Shi Wan released Lu Yanfei's hand, turned her gaze back to the big screen, and continued listening to the lecture.
Lu Yanfei's face immediately darkened; she hadn't expected Shi Wan to be so blunt.
But Shi Wan's nonchalant attitude made Lu Yanfei seem like a clown.
Lu Yanfei's face flushed with shame.
Shi Wan ignored Lu Yanfei and focused on listening to the lecture.
After the academic conference ended, Shi Wan left the meeting room without waiting for Sean. Her mind was already thinking that she should stay away from Sean in the future to avoid being hated by girls who liked him and causing unnecessary trouble.
The days that followed were far from peaceful.
Either Grandma Sikong was pestering Shi Wan, or Sikong Jingyu was pestering Shi Wan. It was as if they had planned it together, so Shi Wan never had a break during her work hours.
"Wanwan!"
"Wanwan..."
In the corridor, Grandma Sikong and Sikong Jingyu surrounded Shi Wan from the front and back, blocking her way.
Sometimes, Shi Wan really wants to escape.
It was late, so they changed their route and went into the nearest ward.
"Hello, Dr. Shi!"
The patients in the ward greeted Shi Wan warmly when she suddenly appeared. Shi Wan smiled and nodded to everyone.
Who can understand Shi Wan's awkward situation at this moment?
Qin Qiaolian had previously said that she wanted Shi Wan to go back to Niwan Village with her, but Shi Wan had never given a direct answer.
At this point, Shi Wan felt that returning to Niwan Village might be a good option.
In the countryside, there are no complicated interpersonal relationships.
In the countryside, there wouldn't be a Grandma Sikong or Sikong Jingyu coming to her office every day to wait for her.
After a while, Shi Wan's belly will gradually grow bigger, and if she stays, she will have to spend time explaining who the father of the child is.
Shi Wan made her choice and submitted a request for a reduction to the hospital that same day.
After making the decision, Shi Wan felt much more relaxed.
After leaving the functional department, Shi Wan passed by the rehabilitation department on her way back to her own department. From afar, she saw Lin Shuya, who had previously undergone limb replantation surgery. At that moment, she was positive and cheerful, working hard for the rehabilitation of her arm.
Isn't this the meaning of life? As long as there is hope in your heart, everything is still possible, and it's never too late!
Life went on, and finally, the day came when Shi Wan had to leave.
Without any fanfare, Shi Wan's departure was quiet and unnoticed.
On the way out of the hospital, Shi Wan saw someone crying their heart out by the roadside, their face filled with grief.
It wasn't until they got closer that they could see clearly that the person was Yan Zhi, who had come to the emergency room for treatment before.
As it was nearing the end of the workday, I overheard a colleague saying that a pancreatic cancer patient from the general surgery department had passed away around 4 p.m. He was very young, had no bad habits, and actively cooperated with the treatment. Yet, from the time he was diagnosed to his passing, it was less than a month.
Seeing Yan Zhi's breakdown, Shi Wan guessed that the person her colleague had mentioned that afternoon was Wen Fei.
Yan Zhi's cries were heart-wrenching, as if she had lost the whole world.
The most helpless thing in this world is birth, aging, sickness, and death. No one can resist it, and everyone has to go through it.
Shi Wan approached Yan Zhi and silently squatted down.
When Yan Zhi saw someone coming, she slightly raised her face, her eyes filled with sorrow.
When she saw Shi Wan, she opened her mouth, sobbing so hard she couldn't form a complete sentence, "Dr. Shi... Fei Fei... she... is gone... I... will... never... have... any... good... friends... again..."
Shi Wan gently stroked Yan Zhi's shoulder, her eyelashes fluttering softly. After a long while, she slowly spoke:
“Yan Zhi, I don’t want to comfort you like others do. I just feel that meeting someone doesn’t necessarily have an ending, but it must have meaning for you, for me, and for Wen Fei.”
What Yan Zhi needs to go through at this time is a process of self-healing and inner peace. If she cannot save herself, no matter what others say, it will be of no use.
"Life is full of regrets, and we must allow those regrets to happen. Feifei would never want to see you like this. Keep going!"
After saying that, Shi Wan stood up and left, giving Yan Zhi time to think alone and allow her to redeem herself.
Yan Zhi stood frozen on the ground until Shi Wan's figure disappeared from sight. Only then did she slowly lower her head, tears streaming down her fair cheeks.
The next morning, as usual, Sikong Jingyu waited to come in for his evening ward rounds.
The door opened, and someone came in.
Among the group of doctors, Sikong Jingyu did not see Shi Wan.
All eyes were drawn to the doorway, but Shi Wan was nowhere to be seen.
Sikong Jingyu frowned slightly and asked coldly, "Why hasn't Dr. Shi come to make his rounds?"
The doctors making their rounds exchanged glances, and finally the leader of the group replied, "From now on... doctors won't be making rounds anymore."
Sikong Jingyu's expression changed, and his tone suddenly became low and deep, "What do you mean?"
The doctor looked at Sikong Jingyu; as expected, he knew nothing.
Seeing Sikong Jingyu's clueless expression, Lu Wenhui, ever outspoken, blurted out, "Dr. Shi has applied for a transfer to a rural health center and won't be coming back to the emergency department!"
Upon hearing this, Sikong Jingyu's eyes suddenly darkened, and his thin lips pressed into a straight line. "What you're saying, is it true?"
Lu Wenhui nodded and answered affirmatively, "Yesterday was her last day working at the hospital!"
To avoid him, she quietly returned to her hometown!
Sikong Jingyu's face was terribly dark, and the temperature around him seemed to drop suddenly, with a chill emanating from his body.
Lu Wenhui shrank back in fright, barely daring to breathe. She hadn't provoked him at all!
Seeing that Sikong Jingyu looked like he was about to tear someone apart, the lead doctor on rounds didn't dare to say anything more about discharge. The doctors carefully left the ward, fearing that they might accidentally anger Sikong Jingyu and be blamed for his actions.
Damn it!
He was completely unaware that Shi Wan had left!
Everyone else knew, except him.
This feeling of being kept in the dark is absolutely awful!
How long had Shi Wan been planning her departure?
