Chapter 391: Making Things Up


    Noticing Director Lee''s strained expression, Jiang Yao continued, "To be frank, Director Lee, my


    husband''s surgery was a gamble. I was lucky and won the bet."


    Director Lee was quite unhappy hearing Jiang Yao''s refusal, seeing her as a young and egoisticaldy.


    Listening to her exnation though, his expression softened. Especially when Jiang Yao addressed


    him in a polite manner and used respectfulnguage. Maybe Mrs. Lu really had her dilemmas, Director


    Lee thought to himself.


    Even though Jiang Yao''s exnation was fabricated, a fake excuse had to have its audience for it to


    work.


    Seeing that Director Lee had epted her exnation, she continued, "The most critical part of my


    husband''s injuries was the bullet that grazed the heart and tore the pericardium. To be honest with you,


    Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    if the patient were someone else, and I was the head surgeon on that day, I would have given up on


    the surgery too."


    "Yet, the patient on the stretcher was my husband, I could not have given up so easily. Coincidentally, I


    was involved in a research on the treating and repairing of the injured pericardium at a research


    institute. The research is currently on hold, but I was able to use whatever I studied on my husband. I


    was extremely lucky, also maybe he was not supposed to die, he lived. Director Lee, even my husband


    might now be a research subject. With so many uncertainties around his operation, that would be


    rather irresponsible of me to share what happened in the operation, don''t you think?"


    Jiang Yao was in awe at her ability to spin stories and make them seem believable. Creating a


    research institute out of thin air and pushing all the credit of her surgeries on the institute was a genius


    move on her part. Director Lee would let her off the hook after hearing her reasoning.


    No matter how legitimate her exnation was, if the uncertainties actually existed in the surgery, why


    would somebody share the results and the progress of their research, for which they spent huge sums


    of money and arge amount of tedious effort, with people outside the organization?


    "Sorry for troubling you, Mrs. Lu!" Director Lee epted her reasons, and felt a little embarrassed, for


    having misunderstood the youngdy.


    "Mrs. Lu, you are very young, right?" He realized he might have said something wrong, and quickly


    exined, "I am not looking down on your age, but I just wanted to remark how much talent and


    potential the medical field has from people like you! Even though you are still young and fresh, you are


    exceptional and even better than plenty of the doctors here in our hospital, who have been in the field


    for decades. I am really pleased to see your immense potential in the profession, and I wish for your


    continued sess!"


    Or maybe, Director Lee was more interested in the research institute mentioned by Jiang Yao. He


    would have to check them out through his vastwork of people and see if he could join them on this


    research.


    Gu Haoyu and Chen Xuyao apanied Jiang Yao to Lu Xingzhi''s ward after she left the director''s


    office.


    They were extremely curious and wanted to learn more about this research institute that Jiang Yao was


    talking about.
