Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s
Chapter 729 - Chapter 729 【729】The classmates have come

Chapter 729: [(729)] The classmates have come Chapter 729: [(729)] The classmates have come “Grandpa, didn’t you get the call?” Mrs. Zhao shouted at her father-in-law across the room.

“I, I was on my way already,” Zhao Huaming’s voice was intermittent on the phone, sounding like he was in a vehicle.

“Did you leave home?”

“Yes, I’m out at a meeting.”

Ah? In this situation, Grandpa actually went on a business trip? Mrs. Zhao understood everything in an instant, put down her phone, and decisively said to the doctors, “What you said is true. My father-in-law probably doesn’t get my son’s situation. I should listen to my son.”

That meant Zhao Zhaowei had previously discussed this with his mother. But Mrs. Zhao would surely have first chosen to trust her well-known doctor father-in-law over her son, who was just a student.

“Dr. Tao, please, do the surgery for my son,” Mrs. Zhao hurriedly made the decision for her son’s surgery at this crucial moment.

With the family’s consent, Tao Zhijie and his team went to prepare for the surgery.

The news that Student Zhao was going to have surgery quickly spread to his class. Students from class of ’96, year eight nearly swarmed to the hospital to see Student Zhao.

Soon, Zhao Zhaowei’s hospital room was filled with his male classmates.

“Why are you guys here?” Overwhelmed by the sudden influx of people, Zhao Zhaowei asked, “Who told you to come?”

“The class monitor notified us,” Li Qi’an said.

Isn’t the class monitor usually quite cold? Zhao Zhaowei was confused about what the class monitor was thinking. Could it be the class monitor thought he was going to die and had gathered all the classmates to see him beforehand?

“How would you die?” Li Qi’an gave him a glare, “If it hadn’t been for Yingying speaking up, we wouldn’t have even known that you might need surgery. Why hide it from us?”

“You didn’t ask, so there was no need to tell. It’s just a minor surgery, no need for the fuss. I’m not worried; why should you be?” Zhao Zhaowei couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride stronger than all his classmates when he said this.

One by one, his classmates, quite unexpectedly, became outrageously angry, “I think we should drag him out first, take him across to the neurosurgery department, and let Senior Cao give his head a check first!”

“Are you really not afraid of having surgery? When you said you were going to be hospitalized, you were so scared you kept grabbing mine and Yingying’s clothes. People say you’ve been afraid of injections since you were a kid,” Li Qi’an mercilessly peeled back the layer of pretense.

“Aren’t you here to comfort me?” Zhao Zhaowei shouted back angrily.

“We are here to comfort you. You say you’re not scared, and we are?”

Surrounded by a group of classmates pointing at his head, Zhao Zhaowei grievously picked up a pillow to cover his face: Yingying, the only girl in the class, was the best.

“Make way.” A nurse pushed in a treatment cart to prepare the patient for surgery.

Suddenly, Zhao Zhaowei’s heart skipped a beat. He had sworn he wasn’t afraid of the surgery, but now seeing that he was truly going to lie on the operating table, he felt a bit queasy. It seemed he understood his grandpa’s fear.

Li Qi’an and the others saw the expression on his face and grew nervous as well.

They had been classmates for four years in college, living together day and night, and now he was going into the operating room. Li Qi’an turned away, admitting to himself that he was scared. He had to concede that if it were him, he definitely wouldn’t have Zhao Zhaowei’s courage to say he wasn’t at all afraid to face the operating table.

It was a real surgery, where the doctor would literally cut open the abdomen with a scalpel.

Thinking of the surgery scenes he had seen during his internship at General Surgery Department Two, Li Qi’an’s eyelids quivered as they shut.

“Don’t be afraid.” Lin Hao’s palm firmly slapped down on Student Zhao’s shoulder.
