Chapter 571: No One Is More Worthy of Wearing White Than You

“But I can’t bear to leave you.”

“What’s there to miss? Call me if you miss me. It’s not like we won’t see each other again. I’m still in Zhonghai. Don’t make it look like we’re parting forever.”

The news of Lin Yi’s resignation quickly spread throughout the cardiology department.

All the nurses surrounded Lin Yi, their expressions sad. They couldn’t bear to see Lin Yi leave.

During Lin Yi’s time here, they had felt a lot of joy.

Even though he had an extraordinary status, he treated ordinary nurses like friends. They were now very comfortable with Lin Yi.

Now that he suddenly wanted to resign, it was emotionally unacceptable to them.

Other than these nurses, the people in the other wards also walked out.

These people had basically all been operated on by Lin Yi. They all had feelings for this responsible doctor.

This was because many of their illnesses were very serious. Even if they went to other hospitals, the doctors there might not dare to accept them.

If Lin Yi hadn’t operated on him, they might not have survived until now.

“Director Lin, I heard that you’re resigning. Who are we going to look for in the future?”

“Just look for Director Li. She’s much better than me,” Lin Yi said with a smile.

Lin Yi’s heart warmed when he saw the people in the ward.

Although he had been busy for so long and had not received a silk banner, it seemed worth it in return for these people’s grat.i.tude.

“Alright, everyone, calm down. I’m not anybody special. Don’t cry. I’ll come back in the future. I’m just leaving temporarily. There’s no need to be like this.”

“Director Lin, how about this? I won’t sign your resignation application. I’ll give you an extended leave. You can decide when you want return. You can also keep your current position and pay.”

“Well …”

Lin Yi thought for a few seconds. “Then give me extended leave, but forget about the pay. I don’t need the money. There’s no need to do this.”

“Alright, we’ll do as you say.”

Knowing that Lin Yi didn’t lack money, Miao Guofeng didn’t insist.

As long as Lin Yi didn’t leave the hospital, he could not ask for much else.

“Thank you, Director Lin. We don’t know how to thank you,” Liu Zihao’s father said excitedly. Then, he and his wife bowed deeply to Lin Yi.

“Alright, alright. Don’t be so sad. I’ll be leaving first.”

“Brother Lin, I’ll miss you. Director Li will miss you too,” Qiao Xin said as she wiped her tears.

“Don’t cry. It’s making me upset.”

Lin Yi waved his hand, and the nurses and patients made way for him to leave.

At this moment, a cry of surprise came from outside the crowd.

A young woman ran in with a stack of doc.u.ments in her hand.

The person who spoke was called Li Yuan. Lin Yi had some impression of her as she was Miao Guofeng’s secretary.

“Director Miao, someone anonymously donated three million yuan to a patient named Liu Zihao and left a message to wish him a speedy recovery.”

“Someone donated 3 million?!”

Hearing this news, everyone present was shocked.

This was not a small sum. It was enough to pay for the SMA treatment.

“Wow, someone actually donated so much money?!”

When Liu Zihao’s parents and family heard this news, they were so excited that they were speechless.

They were about to go home and sell the house, but they never thought that someone would donate so much money.

G.o.d was too kind to the Liu family.

Li Chuhan, who was standing at the side, didn’t say a word and only glanced at Lin Yi indifferently.

Other than Lin Yi, it was impossible for anyone else to donate so much money at this juncture.

This was because Liu Zihao’s illness was very special. Even if the surgery was successful, SMA was still fatal.

Without sufficient medical support, the surgery would be in vain.

Therefore, the money must have come from him.

“The money came at the right time. Now that the surgery has been completed, we can start the SMA treatment in a few days.” Lin Yi smiled.

The Liu family was overjoyed. They were so excited that they did not know what to say.

This period was definitely torturous for them both mentally and physically.

However, now, not only was the surgery successful, but the problem regarding the expensive medicine had also been solved.

To them, there was no better news than this.

The husband and wife held each other, tears spilling from their eyes uncontrollably.

“Old Liu, there are too many kind people in this world. Without them, our child would be finished,” Liu Zihao’s mother said.

“Let’s thank Director Lin first. If Director Lin hadn’t taken us in, we wouldn’t have gotten to where we are today.”

The two of them knelt on the ground excitedly again, but Lin Yi stopped them.

“Don’t keep doing this. I’m not used to it,” Lin Yi said.

“Now that all the problems have been resolved, work harder to earn money in the future and nurture your child into a responsible adult. This is your responsibility.”

“Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Director Lin.”

“Alright, you guys go do your own things. I should go too.” Lin Yi waved his hand and left.

However, just as he walked out, he saw Liang Ruoxu appear not far away.

She was also holding a large box in her hand. Lin Yi did not know what it was.

“Why are you still here?”

“I knew you were leaving today, so I came over to visit.”

“You people really like to join in the fun. It’s just a resignation. What’s there to see?”

Liang Ruoxu tidied her hair. Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with gentleness and grat.i.tude.

“Because you’re not like the others.”

“I’m just a little more handsome than others. I feel embarra.s.sed when you praise me like that.”

“You’re still being cheeky at a time like this. Can’t you be more proper?”

Liang Ruoxu looked up at the teary-eyed people and whispered,

“Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t care about this matter? Why did you secretly donate three million yuan?”

“Who told you that I donated it? I didn’t leave my name on the donation.”

“You can fool others, but you can’t fool me. Other than you, no one else would donate money at this juncture, not to mention this amount.”

Lin Yi was speechless. “It’s good that you know, but don’t let them find out. Otherwise, I won’t be able to leave once they start crying.”

Liang Ruoxu looked at Lin Yi and said gently,

“Thank you.”

Those three simple words seemed to hold all of Liang Ruoxu’s gentleness.

Lin Yi’s body went numb.

“Thank you for doing this for the commoners. I will always remember this in my heart.” Liang Ruoxu combed her hair and sighed.

“It’s a loss for everyone if someone like you leaves the job. No one deserves to wear this white coat more than you.”

“Why are you talking about such useless things? A substantial reward is better than anything else.”

“I knew you’d say that, so I brought you a gift.”

Liang Ruoxu opened the box in his hand, and Lin Yi excitedly discovered that there was a silk banner inside!

Liang Ruoxu opened the banner. There were nineteen words written on it.

“Other than those covered by three layers of snow, no one is more worthy of wearing white than you.”
