Chapter 2576: Not Allowed to Intervene

Holding Li Yaxi’s phone number, Xie Wanying found Teacher Liu Li’s number in her phone contacts to verify: it matched.

"Dr. Xie, I’ll go home and steal my mom’s medical records for you to see," Li Yaxi said.

"That works too." Xie Wanying didn’t refuse, thinking she would decide after seeing the patient’s medical records. At this moment, she truly hoped that she and Teacher Liu Li were just worrying for nothing.

"What are you guys talking about?"

Dai Nanhui’s voice appeared behind the group. Everyone immediately shut their mouths.

Seeing all their silent expressions, Dai Nanhui said, "I heard you."

Li Yaxi’s heart was pounding—had he heard her arguing with her mom?

"Your mom is sick, isn’t she, Yaxi?" Dai Nanhui asked Li Yaxi opposite him.

"This matter doesn’t concern you, Nanhui brother."

"Your mom is sick, and you’re telling me not to care?"

Because your mom doesn’t want you to have anything to do with me. Li Yaxi couldn’t bring herself to say this, so she just nodded: Yes.

Dai Nanhui walked up to her: "I’m a doctor; you can trust me. Why aren’t you letting me know? Do you think I’m unreliable as a medical student? I can tell my mom; she will definitely help with this."

"No need!" Li Yaxi looked up, shouting in a hurry, pleading with him not to ask his mother. She didn’t want any more misunderstandings.

Dai Nanhui was taken aback by her current attitude: "You’d rather trust them and not me and my mom?"

He admitted that Student Xie was very outstanding, but ultimately, Student Xie was just an intern, definitely not comparable to his mom, the ICU director.

"I’m definitely taking charge of this matter!" Whether out of anger, Dai Nanhui firmly declared his vow.

The crowd felt a sinking sensation in their hearts: How did things turn out like this?

"She said not to let you handle it, so why are you interfering?" Lin Hao, who had been holding in his anger, couldn’t bear it anymore and swiftly criticized him.

"What is your relationship with her, and what is our relationship? Our affairs are not for you to meddle in." Dai Nanhui retorted, flames of anger aimed back at Lin Hao’s face.

Daring to claim he had no relation, not considering how badly he had been harmed last time. Lin Hao’s heart burned with fury.

"Stop arguing, you guys." Pan Shihua and Wei Shangquan pulled the two apart, watching as the waiter was about to call the police.

Fearing that Dai Nanhui would tell his mother, causing Aunt Dai to blame her was a minor issue; if it dragged Dr. Xie into it... Thinking of this, Li Yaxi anxiously stood up and said, "Nanhui brother, I can tell you. But, please don’t tell your mom, okay?"

Dai Nanhui stood his ground, turned around, saw the pleading in her reddened eyes, and reconsidered: Fine. Then he nodded, although he still didn’t understand why she kept it from his mom.

The classmates who tried to mediate were drenched in sweat.

When Li Yaxi went home to get the medical records, Xie Wanying called Teacher Liu Li.

Liu Li was surprised to receive her call but first asked on behalf of her cousin: "Have you finished reading the material Teacher Tan gave you?"

Huh? Xie Wanying was startled. Teacher Liu Li already knew about this?

How could he not know? Although her cousin appeared very calm on the surface, internally, he was a little nervous. He wasn’t sure if his prized student had any interest in his research or what opinions she held.

Xie Wanying thought: She wouldn’t dare to critique or make judgments on Teacher Tan’s research.
