Chapter 2243: Chapter 2243: Protective of One’s Own

The sincerity and purity in Mother Xie’s tone came straight from the heart, and Teacher Lu could feel her own heartstrings faintly quiver.

"Teacher, I tend to speak too bluntly, and lectures should be given by you teachers. I never studied in a medical school, I don’t really understand medicine. I only know that doctors often say that having the mindset of wanting to create the miracle of life is very important, but I don’t know if that’s true or not."

"You’re right. I’ve always wanted to meet you. I know Yingying, she’s a very good girl. She makes me and others really want to see what her parents are like."

"Her dad’s brain is like it’s been kicked by a donkey—actually, it’s more that after some setbacks he lost his confidence and believes whatever people tell him. I’m an ordinary person just like her dad." Facing the teacher her daughter trusted, Sun Rongfang spoke honestly and from the heart. "Yingying works hard on her own. But as her mother, I never cover up her flaws. The first day I came, I told Dr. Cao that she can’t talk. Dr. Cao defended her, said she’s actually very good at talking, it’s just that other people don’t know how to listen to her."

Was Cao Yong really that protective?

Across from her, Teacher Lu burst out laughing, laughing so hard she could barely catch her breath.

Zhang Huayao hurriedly reached out to pat his mother’s back so she wouldn’t laugh herself out of breath, and at the same time arched an eyebrow: this Cao Yong, just like Shim Youhuan said, after falling in love he’s become a completely different person—

The others present all heard what Mother Xie had unintentionally let slip.

Chang Jiawei felt a knot of frustration in his chest: this Cao Yong is actually better at flattering girls than he is, and he’d never noticed it before.

Zhai Yunsheng and Cao Zhao glanced at their family member: okay, okay, this person in our family is already figuring out how to protect his wife before anything’s even official... Like this, what exactly is he trying to hide. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Senior Cao was a really good person, so that was why he spoke up for her. Thinking of this, Xie Wanying didn’t dare look at her senior’s face, afraid he’d feel awkward.

Maintaining his composure, Cao Yong felt he hadn’t said anything wrong: the people badmouthing her were the ones with impure motives who deserved criticism.

Chatting happily with Mother Xie, Teacher Lu couldn’t bear to hang up the phone.

Seeing that the two elders were going to be on the phone for quite a while, the others temporarily chose not to disturb their rambling conversation.

Zhai Yunsheng and Cao Zhao left carrying half a soy-braised duck. Cao Yong walked his family out.

A bunch of classmates watched the bosses leave.

Xiao Duoduo came over and grabbed Brother Pan’s hand, saying that the handsome guy who had just left was a pediatrician.

Pan Shihua exchanged looks with the other classmates: Senior Cao’s older brother was actually a big shot at Shou’er.

The three members of the Cao Family who had gone out the door reached downstairs. Seeing no one around, Cao Zhao slung an arm over his younger brother’s shoulders and blew in his ear: "Want me to sound her out for you?"

"No need." Cao Yong refused flatly.

"What do you think I’m going to sound out? What’s between you two is none of my business." Cao Zhao patted his brother’s back. "I mean, what she really thinks in her heart about why she’s studying medicine."

As her second brother, at their first meeting he seemed to have sensed something, or maybe he’d heard something about her. Cao Yong pondered for a moment, then said, "Don’t provoke her."

"Relax. I wouldn’t dare hurt her. It’s just that if someone’s carrying some unspeakable secret and becomes a doctor, that’s not good." said Cao Zhao.

"She’s not—"

"I never said she’d hurt anyone else. But being a doctor, you need to have a good mindset. If she’s talented, I’m sure you wouldn’t want to see her one day break down first and never be able to practice as a doctor again." As he said this, Cao Zhao’s eyes drifted to his younger brother’s silent face, knowing he’d touched on the story buried in the other’s heart.

Doctors who collapse first themselves are not uncommon, and more importantly, his younger brother had encountered such a person before.
