Chapter 249 Two Women Come to the Door
After hard work in the laboratory, we finally succeeded in isolating the representative strain of the virus. The next step is to study drugs against this virus.
Li Ying also successfully left the research laboratory, returned to her own clinic, and started her own work.
On the first day of opening, people came to the store, not to see a doctor, but to cause trouble.
"Are you Li Ying?"
The girl was about twenty years old, with a thick layer of powder all over her face, and looked a little malnourished.
"It's me. May I ask your name, comrade?"
"You don't know me, but you should know Cao Xinqiao, right? I'm his fiancée Tian Aiai."
Cao Xinqiao’s fiancée!
Li Ying found it funny: "Miss Tian, you said you were Cao Xinqiao's fiancée, then I don't understand why you came here to find me?"
"Of course I have to look for you. If it weren't for you flirting with other women, how could Cao Xinqiao be willing to break off the engagement with me. It's all your fault, you unfaithful bitch!" Tian Aiai started cursing, which was really rude.
"Hey, hey, hey, watch your words! My Li Ying would never do such a thing. Are you suffering from paranoia? And what the hell is this Cao Qiao you mentioned?" Chi En came up and pulled Li Ying aside, and confronted Tian Aiai.
"Stop!" Li Ying raised her hand to interrupt the two people, motioning Chi En to go aside, and she would explain things to this puzzled Miss Tian.
"Ms. Tian, I don't know where your anger comes from, and I don't know how it came about. I have a husband. My husband is Ye Jingchi. He is a regimental-level cadre, handsome and capable. Do you think I would betray my husband and find someone I hardly know?"
Tian Aiai didn't believe it at all: "I don't care what you say. It was only when I saw your photo at Cao's house that I realized that the reason he broke off the engagement with me was because of you."
photo? !
That Cao Xinqiao actually hid her photo, how despicable.
"Tian Aiai, what are you doing?"
Cao Xinqiao rushed into the clinic, grabbed Tian Aiai's wrist and wanted to take her away.
"Cao Xinqiao, you came at the right time. Tell me clearly in front of her, are you secretly in love with her?" Tian Aiai refused to leave and insisted that Cao Xinqiao explain clearly.
Li Ying also needs him to explain clearly.
"Comrade Cao, I think you should explain yourself clearly today. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to clear my suspicion."
Cao Xinqiao adjusted his glasses and slowly took out a photo from his pocket. The girl in the photo did look very similar to Li Ying, except that she had a beauty mole under the corner of her eye.
"Yes, it's this photo. What else do you have to say now, you shameless woman!" Tian Aiai pointed at the photo and cursed.
Li Ying raised her hand and slapped Tian Aiai in the face, causing her to lose her voice and she didn't react for a long time.
"Look at the photo, is it me?"
Cao Xinqiao explained, "Ai Ai, you're mistaken. The person in the photo is not Li Ying, but a girl who looks similar to her. She was the most beautiful girl I met when I was an educated youth in the countryside. It's a pity that she is no longer with us."
Tian Aiai was stunned.
Cao Xinqiao went to the countryside as an educated youth and just returned to the city some time ago. He looked depressed after returning to the city and even took the initiative to propose a breakup of the engagement. Tian Aiai found the photo and accidentally saw Li Ying, so she thought the photo in his hand was Li Ying.
Looking at the photo, Cao Xinqiao said emotionally: "That day we went to the mountains to cut wood and encountered wild wolves. She sacrificed herself to save me."
Tian Aiai immediately blamed herself: "Cao Xinqiao, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have misunderstood you. I thought... but she's gone now. Why did you break off the engagement with me?"
"It's because I can't forget her!" Cao Xinqiao roared, then gradually calmed down: "As soon as I close my eyes, I see her tragic death in front of me. I have to take massage pills every night to fall asleep. How can I marry you when I'm like this?"
Tian Aiai instantly blamed herself and reached out to hold Cao Xinqiao's hand: "Brother Xinqiao, please don't be like this. I didn't know it was like this. I shouldn't have come to disturb other people's clinics. Please forgive me, and we will face this together, okay?"
Cao Xinqiao shook his head slightly, holding the photo, slowly turned around and walked out.
Tian Aiai hurriedly followed.
"That's it?" Chi En threw his hands up in anger. "If he wasn't so distraught, I would have beaten him up."
Li Ying gently pressed her chest and slowly sat down on the chair. Whenever this person appeared, her heart would hurt violently, and she didn't know why.
There was no trace of this person in Li Ying's memory, but why did the pain in her heart become more obvious whenever she saw him?
On the opening day, there were naturally many people coming to congratulate.
After the excitement, it’s life day after day.
That day, as soon as Li Ying opened the door, Tian Aiai and Cao Xinping rushed into the clinic at the same time.
"Doctor Li Ying, please go and save my brother!"
"Go and save Cao Xinqiao! Please!"
Li Ying was puzzled: "What happened? Tell me slowly."
"Let me tell you." Cao Xinping stopped Tian Aiai and said, "My brother has been having nightmares lately, and he took a lot of sleeping pills. I don't know if he took too much yesterday, but he didn't wake up this morning. We immediately asked a doctor to see him. He woke up, but he kept crying. It was scary."
"Doctor Li, we know you once saved the young master of the Hua family and the mentally ill Young Master Chi. You can definitely save Xinqiao. Please."
The two women were almost crying.
Li Ying seemed to have no reason to refuse, not to mention that doctors are like caring parents.
"Let's go, I'll go take a look."
Li Ying followed the two women to Cao's house, a two-story Chinese-style building. It was not large but very cozy.
Cao Xinqiao lived on the second floor. The bedroom door was tightly closed, but he could hear sobbing sounds coming from inside. The sound was so hoarse and out of tune that it sounded like the screams of a demon in the dark night.
When Cao's father and mother saw Li Ying, they came forward.
"You must be the famous doctor Li Ying in Beijing. We beg you, you must help us save Xinqiao. He is the hope of our family." Mother Cao burst into tears.
Cao Xinping hugged her mother and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry. Doctor Li Ying will definitely find a way to save my brother."
"I can try, but I can't guarantee that I can save him. I will do my best." After saying that, Li Ying walked upstairs, came to the bedroom door, and knocked gently.
The person inside did not respond, so Li Ying pushed the door open herself. What she saw was Cao Xinqiao squatting beside the bed, curled up in a ball, with his head buried in his arms, still crying.
This should also be a stress-related psychological disorder, but his reaction is different from others.
Li Ying squatted down and called softly, "Cao Xinqiao."
