Chapter 359: Chapter 352: She is Willing to Go
“Ziye, I warn you, our Qin Family has a pure and respectable reputation, we absolutely cannot let a woman like that enter our household. If you marry her, don’t bother coming to see me again.”
“Grandpa, the woman I want to marry is Guan Jing.”
Qin Ziye interrupted Old Master Qin.
“I don’t care who she is, in any case, you cannot marry that kind of woman,” Old Master Qin’s voice grew louder, but he quickly realized his mistake.
“Ziye, who did you say you want to marry?”
“Grandpa, I want to marry Guan Jing,” Qin Ziye repeated, taking a third sip of tea, with its bitter taste still prevailing, even in the aftertaste. It was no longer a tasting experience, but pure endurance.
The teacup in Old Master Qin’s hand fell onto the table, creating a clanging sound. The little craftsmanship teacup rolled on the table for a few seconds before spilling its leaves. A trace of the tea aroma filled the room – such a waste of good tea and good time.
“Grandpa, I want to marry Guan Jing,” Qin Ziye stressed every word.
He wanted to marry Guan Jing, the daughter of the Guan Family, a well-known lady of Beijing.
In the eyes of many eligible bachelors in Beijing, Guan Jing was their first choice as a prospective bride.
The saying “If you want to marry, marry Guan Jing” had been circulating in Beijing for a long time. It’s just that no one knew which family she would marry into.
“You said you want to marry whom?” Old Master Qin was still a little confused, “Aren’t you supposed to marry that female student? Why do you want to marry Guan Jing now?” If it was Guan Jing, he would, of course, one hundred percent agree.
But to marry this female student, he would wait till he dropped dead, provided they could wait until then.
“Grandpa, when did I ever say that I wanted to marry a female student?” The mention of ‘female student’ caused Qin Ziye’s heart to stir, but he maintained his smile and ignored the remark.
Qin Ziye parked his car in front of Qing University. He took out a cigarette and started to smoke. He was at a loss, unsure what he was supposed to do here, what he could possibly do, or who he was waiting for, or who he wanted to see.
What could he do by coming here? He pressed his lips together and started up his car to leave.
As for Tang Yuxin, her days went on as usual. The only difference was that someone who should never have been in her life was gone.
She was also planning to return to school, otherwise, Dean Tao might note a poor evaluation for her.
That night, she was restless. She had many dreams and thought a lot, but she just couldn’t fall asleep.
The next day, she gathered her belongings and returned to school.
And in not many days, around March, as expected, a large-scale outbreak of SARS, a highly contagious disease, began. The disease spread rapidly, catching people off guard, and panic spread throughout the country.
In Beijing alone, nearly a hundred cases were identified in one day, and the number of quarantined people started to increase rapidly.
“We need to go to the hospital, it’s our duty as doctors. Who’s willing to go?”
Dean Tao asked his students. This was not an ordinary situation. This highly contagious disease could pose a threat to one’s life. The students needed to think it over carefully.
Upon hearing this, the students hesitated. After all, who doesn’t care about their own life? They’re medical students and future doctors, but that doesn’t mean they should risk their lives.
So, they hesitated, and this hesitation was normal.
“Professor, I’ll go,” Tang Yuxin stepped forward. She knew it wouldn’t be an issue. Normally, a doctor well-protected wouldn’t get infected. Furthermore, perhaps due to her consumption of Cold Fragrance Pills, her resistance to the disease was considerably strong. She had taken care of numerous SARS patients.
In the past, she had contact with SARS patients for more than two weeks and nothing happened. It might have been luck, but she was not afraid of the risks, willing to do what she didn’t have the courage to do in her past life, even knowing the danger involved.
Dean Tao patted Tang Yuxin on the shoulder without saying anything.
Among the students Dean Tao brought this time, a total of six, the ones who eventually went were only Tang Yuxin and her senior, Shi Yuan.
