Chapter 74: Chapter 74 I’m Just Trash

Chi Gui stepped back to avoid his hand.

She rubbed her temples, “I retired, it’s just that I didn’t rest well last night.”

“What’s wrong?” Fu Si skillfully poured the congee and side dishes into bowls, the soft and sweet aroma of the congee immediately filled the room.

“Just a minor issue,” Chi Gui said nonchalantly.

Fu Si didn’t inquire further.

The two ate breakfast in silence, and then Fu Si left.

...

Chi Gui took the day off from school and didn’t have to attend classes. She sat on the sofa with her iPad, continuing to discuss the next research direction with her colleagues from the institute.

As noon approached, her doorbell rang.

Fu Si had been punctual with meals these past few days, so Chi Gui didn’t think much of it and instructed Little Guai to open the door.

Soon after, a voice with a sobbing tone came from the entrance, “Professor Chi…”

Chi Gui was startled and looked up to see a youth who looked obedient and cute, with eyes brimming with tears, standing at her door, holding a large bottle of fruit juice.

Chi Gui: …

She suddenly felt a bit of a headache.

“Come in,” Chi Gui rose from the sofa and walked to the kitchen, taking two cups from the cupboard, “What’s it about this time?”

The youth entered, sat down neatly at the table, and Little Guai closed the door.

Seeing Chi Gui holding the cups, he quickly took them over and then unscrewed the bottle of the drink, respectfully pouring a cup for Chi Gui first before pouring one for himself.

“Sob…” He gulped down the drink as if it were liquor, then started speaking with a pained face, “Professor, I couldn’t save him again… You say… why, even after a successful surgery, why couldn’t he survive…”

Chi Gui didn’t speak.

The youth poured another cup, swallowed it down, and then burst into tears, “Professor, you don’t understand… That child was still so young… When he went into the operating room, he smiled at me, called me ‘big brother’… but I couldn’t save him… I’m just useless! I don’t deserve to be a doctor!”

Chi Gui sat quietly, saying nothing, letting the youth vent.

Of all the students she had mentored, Xu Wen was the most sensitive and sentimental.
