Soon Lin Yi learned the details from the nurse. Qiangwei had indeed taken the initiative to consult Suning.

Not only did Su Ning not take the opportunity to belittle Lin Yi, but he also suggested that Qiangwei accept Lin Yi's surgical plan.

This news made Lin Yi feel very surprised and even a little ashamed.

He realized how narrow-minded his previous misunderstanding and hostility towards Suning were.

"It turns out that I misunderstood Suning..." Lin Yi sat in the office, feeling full of self-blame.

He recalled his previous attitude towards Suning, and even complained about Suning's "unkindness" in front of Zhou Xiaofeng, and suddenly felt his face burning.

Then Lin Yi decided to go to Suning to apologize, after all, he was indeed in the wrong in this matter.

However, when he found Suning, Suning just glanced at him indifferently, his tone calm but with a hint of alienation.

"Director Lin, is there anything wrong?"

Lin Yi was a little embarrassed, but he still spoke up: "Director Su, I heard that Qiangwei had consulted you about surgical options before, and you recommended my plan... Thank you."

Su Ning raised an eyebrow, his tone still calm: "No need to thank me, I just gave the most appropriate advice from a medical perspective. The patient's health is the most important thing."

Seeing Su Ning's cold attitude, Lin Yi felt even more guilty: "Director Su, I misunderstood you before and my attitude wasn't very nice. I apologize."

Su Ning waved his hand impatiently and said, "Director Lin, there's no need to apologize! We're all doing this for the patients' benefit. There's no need for such empty talk. If you have nothing else to do, I still have to go to the ward for rounds."

After saying that, Suning turned and left the office.

Lin Yi was left standing there alone, feeling mixed emotions.

Lin Yi didn't expect that Su Ning would reject his apology so directly, and he didn't even bother to say anything more to him.

He felt a sense of loss, but he also understood that his previous behavior was indeed chilling.

He sighed and muttered to himself again, "It seems that perhaps I am too self-righteous..."

At the same time, Fang Xiaoran learned about this and found Lin Yi.

"Director Lin, your previous attitude towards Dr. Su was indeed a bit excessive. Although he is your competitor in cardiac surgery, he never lets personal grudges affect his judgment of patients."

"Yes! Now I understand that I was too petty."

Fang Xiaoran sighed, "Although Director Su has a cold personality, his professional ability and character are beyond reproach. You should communicate with him more in the future and don't always have prejudices."

"Thank you! I will."

Lin Yi nodded and secretly decided to change his attitude towards Suning.

On the other hand, although Suning appeared to be dismissive of Lin Yi's apology, he actually didn't care too much in his heart.

He has never liked wasting time on meaningless arguments and prefers to focus his energy on his patients.

Then the nosy heroine Fang Xiaoran found Su Ning again, "Director Su, I heard that Director Lin apologized to you, why are you ignoring him?"

Suning shrugged. "What's the point of an apology? What's important is action. If he truly realizes his mistakes, he'll naturally change in the future."

"You! You're always so unreasonable. You don't even give me a chance to apologize."

"Doctor Fang, are you blaming me? Or do you think it's my fault?"

"Killing is not the right thing to do! You should at least give Director Lin a chance to apologize, right?"

"Fang Xiaoran, I've said it before, Lin Yi is indeed a good doctor, but he's not a good colleague, so this is the only way my relationship with him can be."

"..."

A few days later, Lin Yi proved his change with practical actions.

During an operation, he took the initiative to invite Suning to participate in the consultation and listened to Suning's opinions humbly.

After the operation, Lin Yi said to Su Ning sincerely: "Director Su, thanks to your advice, the operation went so smoothly this time."

Su Ning glanced at him, his tone still calm, but less distant than before: "This is the result of teamwork, you're welcome."

"..."

Lin Yi nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that although his relationship with Suning could not become close all at once, at least he had taken the first step.

……

Chen Yue had already planned to give Suning a surprise.

She bought two concert tickets and wanted to spend a relaxing and enjoyable evening with Suning.

After learning about this, Suning happily took a day off and enjoyed a rare day of leisure.

"It's really rare today that you actually took the initiative to ask for leave." Chen Yue said with a smile, holding Su Ning's arm.

Su Ning smiled and said in a relaxed tone: "Yes! No matter how busy I am at work, I have to accompany you. Otherwise, you will complain that I don't understand romance again."

Chen Yue hit him lightly, her eyes full of smiles: "You still have some conscience."

The two enjoyed the music at the concert, as if they had temporarily forgotten the busyness and pressure in the hospital.

However, something big happened at Dongli Hospital.

Qiangwei's boyfriend Jianbo finally opened his eyes, and the nurse hurriedly called to inform his parents and Qiangwei.

However, Qiangwei fell into a deep sleep due to excessive fatigue, and the nurse had to shout desperately for a long time before waking her up.

"Qiangwei, wake up! Jianbo is awake!" The nurse shook her shoulders anxiously.

Qiangwei opened her eyes drowsily, and was immediately cheered up when she heard that Jianbo had woken up.

She hurried to Jianbo's ward, but found that Jianbo had tried his best but couldn't say a word, and then closed his eyes forever.

"Jianbo! Don't go! Don't leave me!" Qiangwei threw herself on Jianbo's bed and burst into tears.

She suppressed her grief and said her final goodbye to Jianbo, but the pain in her heart made her unable to let go.

In the next few days, Qiangwei was so sad that she refused to eat or drink and just slept with her head covered.

Lin Yi, Fang Xiaoran and Zhou Xiaofeng took turns to persuade her, but to no avail.

After get off work, Lin Yi was worried about Qiangwei, so he came to the hospital to accompany his elder brother Lin Hai.

Then Lin Yi asked Liu Dong about Qiangwei's condition: "How is Qiangwei? Is she still refusing to eat?"

Liu Dong shook his head helplessly and explained, "Yes! She has been refusing to eat or talk. We don't know what to do."

"Oh!" Lin Yi sighed, his heart full of self-blame.

At the same time, Yang Guilan secretly ran to the corridor to drink because of insomnia.

She discovered that Qiangwei had actually committed suicide by cutting her wrists. She was so frightened that she cried out for help: "Help! Help! Qiangwei committed suicide!"

Fang Xiaoran heard the cry for help and rushed over, quickly stopped the bleeding for Qiangwei and provided emergency treatment.

Qiangwei was finally rescued, but her mood was still depressed.

She accidentally heard that Lin Yi had lied to get her to undergo surgery, and she felt completely hopeless. "You are all liars! Why did you lie to me?" Qiangwei shouted at Lin Yi and Zhou Xiaofeng, her eyes filled with anger and despair.

Lin Yi and Zhou Xiaofeng both came to apologize to Qiangwei, but Qiangwei refused to accept their apology.

She was so emotional that she refused to even communicate with them.

Seeing this, Yang Guilan kindly advised Qiangwei, "Qiangwei, don't be like this! Director Lin and the others are doing this for your own good. They don't want to see you get into trouble."

But Qiangwei still couldn't let it go and just shed tears silently.

Lin Yi regretted lying to Qiangwei. He found Qiangwei and sincerely admitted his mistake: "Qiangwei, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you, but I really just wanted to save you. Just live well, okay?"

"..." Qiangwei remained silent, with a blank look in her eyes.

Seeing this, Yang Guilan decided to use her own experience to comfort Qiangwei.

She sat beside Qiangwei's bed, hugged her and whispered, "Qiangwei, I know you're in pain right now. I was once like you. My husband and children died in the earthquake, and I wanted to follow them. But then I realized I wanted to live the rest of my life for them. You have to be strong too. Jianbo must want you to live well."

After hearing what Yang Guilan said, Qiangwei finally couldn't help but lie in her arms and sob loudly: "Aunt Yang, I really miss him... I miss him so much..."

Yang Guilan patted her back gently, saying softly, "Cry, it will make you feel better. But you must remember that life must go on, and you must live well for Jianbo."

Qiangwei's emotions gradually calmed down with Yang Guilan's comfort, but she still needed time to heal her inner trauma.

Lin Yi and Fang Xiaoran were also reflecting on their own behavior.

Lin Yi found Fang Xiaoran and said with a face full of self-blame, "Xiaoran, did I do something wrong back then? If I hadn't lied, would Qiangwei feel better?"

Fang Xiaoran also sighed helplessly, "Doctor Lin, your original intention was good, but sometimes, white lies can also cause harm. We must consider the feelings of patients more in the future."

Lin Yi nodded, his heart full of regret.

……

Yang Guilan's condition was complicated. As her attending physician, Su Ning recommended that the cardiology department and cardiac surgery department jointly perform surgery on her.

Cui Jing expressed her support for this and believed that it was the safest option.

However, Bai Ji, the director of the Department of Cardiology, was extremely dissatisfied with this.

He was jealous of Suning's talent and ability, and secretly blamed Suning for acting on his own without communicating with him in advance.

In fact, this was just an excuse he made to suppress Suning.

Baiji's pettiness soon became apparent.

He gave a strict order to the medical staff of the cardiology department, requiring them to stay put and not assist the cardiac surgery department in performing a complex operation on Yang Guilan.

"Without my permission, no one is allowed to agree to assist the cardiac surgery department!" Bai Ji said coldly at the department meeting, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

"Yes! Director Bai."

The cardiologists looked at each other. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to disobey Bai Ji's orders.

Naturally, Suning would not ask Bai Ji for help, because he knew very well that Bai Ji was a villain and asking him would be of no use.

So he went directly to the director of cardiac surgery, Jiang Junling, hoping that he could help coordinate matters of the cardiology department.

"Director Jiang, Yang Guilan's condition requires a joint operation by the cardiology department and the cardiac surgery department, but Baiji doesn't seem to be cooperating. Can you help coordinate it?" Su Ning said sincerely to Jiang Junling in front of him.

However, Jiang Junling frowned and rebuked Su Ning, "Su Ning, as a doctor, you should know how to maintain good relationships with your colleagues. Bai Ji is the director of the cardiology department after all, you should have communicated with him beforehand."

Su Ning smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Director Jiang, how long have I been at Dongli Hospital? How have I ever offended Director Bai? But I'm sure you've seen Bai Ji's attitude. I don't want to affect the patient's treatment because of personal grudges."

Jiang Junling sighed: "Okay! I will try to communicate with him. But you also have to pay attention to the method and approach, don't make things too awkward."

However, Jiang Junling's communication did not work.

Bai Ji continued to do his own thing, and even hinted that Suning should admit its mistake.

Su Ning felt angry. He felt that he had always been a peaceful person since he came to Dongli Hospital and had never offended Bai Ji. He really couldn't understand his behavior.

"Since Baiji doesn't give me face, then I don't need to give him face either." Suning thought to himself and decided not to compromise.

At the same time, Zhou Xiaofeng was also in a dilemma.

He originally wanted to participate in Yang Guilan's operation, after all, he was the first patient he saw.

However, Bai Ji called him to hold him accountable.

"Zhou Xiaofeng, do you want to interfere with Yang Guilan's operation?" Bai Ji asked coldly, with a hint of warning in his eyes.

Zhou Xiaofeng quickly explained: "Director Bai, Aunt Yang was the first patient I saw, and I really wanted to save her."

Bai Ji, however, didn't believe it at all. Instead, he said with a mocking look on his face, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking! For fame and fortune, have you even disregarded the department's rules?"

Zhou Xiaofeng wanted to argue, but Bai Ji waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, stop talking. You are not allowed to interfere with this operation, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"

What made Zhou Xiaofeng even more heartbroken was that Bai Ji secretly put aside his application form for selection as one of the top ten young doctors.

When Zhou Xiaofeng learned about it, he felt helpless and angry.

Fang Xiaoran noticed that Zhou Xiaofeng was in a bad mood, so she asked his assistant privately and found out what had happened.

She found Zhou Xiaofeng and asked with concern, "Brother, are you okay? I heard that Director Bai gave you a hard time."

Zhou Xiaofeng, however, gave a tired smile and explained, "Yes! I can't participate in Aunt Yang's surgery, and even the opportunity to be selected as one of the top ten young doctors has been put on hold."

Fang Xiaoran sighed indignantly and said, "Director Bai is going too far! Aunt Yang's condition cannot be delayed. We can't just sit back and watch."

Zhou Xiaofeng nodded, but still hesitated in his heart: "But Director Bai has already given the order. If I interfere, I'm afraid it will cause even greater trouble."

Fang Xiaoran took Zhou Xiaofeng's arm and said firmly, "Brother, the patient's life is more important than anything else. We can't give up Aunt Yang because of Director Bai's selfishness."

"..."

Yang Guilan's condition became increasingly critical, and Zhou Xiaofeng rushed over upon hearing the news, wanting to find a guardian for her.

However, Bai Ji's suppression and Yang Guilan's trust made Zhou Xiaofeng feel extremely conflicted.

He didn't know what to choose for a moment and was struggling in his heart.

……

At the same time, Yang Guilan's condition worsened due to anger.

Because her nephew Yang Chuanbin originally wanted to take the opportunity to seize her property and money, but was flatly refused by Yang Guilan.

Yang Chuanbin was so angry that he brought his lawyer to her house, threatened that he would no longer care about her, and finally left.

When Su Ning learned that Chen Yue was the lawyer of Yang Guilan's nephew, he was a little surprised, but he was not prepared to interfere with Chen Yue's work.

"Chen Yue, Aunt Yang's case is indeed a bit complicated. I believe you can handle it." Su Ning said with a trusting smile in his eyes.

Chen Yue nodded. "Don't worry! I still have my professional ethics, but I advise your hospital not to accept this donation, because it really is a huge trouble."

Suning smiled and didn't say much.
