Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Chapter 17: Mr Long's surgery was not done by me

The next day

Wen Mei arrived at the hospital with the team to do a last check-up on Long Feng.

Because Wen Mei's father was not well she had to return earlier than their scheduled departure.

According to Director Xi as Wen Mei was picked up by Wang Yu Yan so she will be familiar with Wang Yu Yan hence Wang Yu Yan will be one to see off Wen Mei.

Wang Yu Yan had no problem as she also wanted to see off her friend.

After bidding farewell to all the hospital staff Wang Yu Yan drove Wen Mei to the helipad in the city.

When they both reached the destination Wen Mei pulled Wang Yu Yan into a tight hug she was reluctant to let go.

Wang Yu Yan understood the reason and so she whispered to Wen Mei " It's okay they are your parents they will understand. Just be confident and tell them your real dream ."

" Are you sure they will understand ?" asked Wen Mei after breaking the hug.

" Hundred percent sure," said Wang Yu Yan. " Don't forget me after this meeting" said Wen Mei

" Yes Miss Wen how can I forget a cute and adorable girl," said Wang Yu Yan while patting Wen Mei's head.

" Don't mess my hair," whined Wen Mei.

Wang Yu Yan gave out a short chuckle and that's when they heard the sound of the chauffer which landed on the helipad. " Now go and all the best," said Wang Yu Yan.

" Okay then Bye and make sure you call me" said Wen Mei after a short pause.

Wen Mei waved at her after which she climbed into the chauffer and it took off.

Wang Yu Yan after seeing that the chauffer was no longer visible she went back to her car and drove away.

Wen Mei's chauffer arrived at the Wen Mansion's private helipad.

When Wen Mei came down the chauffeur and was greeted by a man wearing butler's uniform in his fifties. " Young Miss" said Butler Kim.

" Butler Kim, I am back" said Wen Mei.

" Young Miss welcome back. Master and Madam are waiting for you in the mansion," answered Butler Kim while he bowed to Wen Mei.

" Then let's head there directly" ordered Wen Mei. " As you wish Young Miss. This way please " answered Butler Kim after which he led her the car.

The Wen Mansion was at a distance of ten-minute drive from the helipad.

The Wen Mansion was big and very spacious. Though it may look simple from outside it was much grand from inside.

When the guard on the gate saw a familiar car he opened the gate and the car entered and stopped at the entrance of the mansion.

A servant opened the car door for Wen Mei and he greeted her. Wen Mei gave a slight nod and headed inside.

When she reached the main hall she said " Father-Mother I am back ."

A woman in her late forties with hurried steps came to Wen Mei and pulled her into a hug she said " Oh my daughter you are back. I heard about the success of the surgery I am proud of you ." Madam Wen was very happy at her daughter's success.

But Wen Mei's mood became gloomy on hearing her praise. I have to sort this out fast she thought. She brushed the topic and said " Mother how is father? Where is he ?".

" He is all well now. He must be in his room," answered Madam Wen.

As soon as Wen Mei took a step to her further she heard a voice " Oh Xiao Mei". Wen Peng descended the stairs. He was in his mid-fifties and was wearing casual clothes.

" Father" said Wen Mei while she ran to Wen Peng and helped him down the stairs.

Wen Peng pulled Wen Mei in a fatherly hug. Patting her head he said " Ah Xiao Mei let father take a look at you. My daughter has grown up and made me proud ."

" Father-Mother I have something to tell " Wen Mei was cut off by her mother.

She said " Xiao Mei we will talk later. First you go and freshen up and eat something. Look its time for Lunch. I have personally made your favorite dishes"

" Your Mother is right lets first have lunch and then we can talk," said Wen Peng. Wen Mei had no choice but to follow what they said.

I will tell them after lunch she thought. "Ok" said Wen Mei and she went towards her room.

After getting freshen up and changing into comfortable clothes she went to the dining hall where the aroma of her favorite dishes assaulted her nostrils. She sat down with her parents to eat.

The lunch was very peaceful and delightful. She enjoyed it. After she finished her plate she took a long sigh.

You can do it she said to herself.

Putting her chopsticks down she said " Father-Mother I have to tell you something and its very important ."

" What is it sweetie ?" asked Wen Peng. " Not here father," said Wen Mei. " What's so important sweetie, is there any problem ?" asked Madam Wen.

"It's about the surgery and myself. Can we talk in your study father ?" said Wen Mei. "Sure Xiao Mei," said Wen Peng. He was getting worried now.

In the study

"What is it that you have to tell us ?" asked Mother Wen with a hint of worry in her voice.

" The Surgery of Mr. Long was not done by me ." Wen Mei said.

Both Wen Peng and her mother Zhao Shuang were dumbfounded at her words.

For some moments only the ticking of the clock could be heard. Wen Peng came to his senses and he said " Xiao Mei its not the time to crack a ridiculous joke. It's late I think we should go to sleep ."

" I-Its not a joke father. The Surgery Of Mr long was not done by me," said Wen Mei.

After a pause she said " I-I don't even know how to hold a scalpel.

I was never interested in medicines from the start. I only went to the university of medicine because all the relatives in our family including my friends told me that you wanted me to be a doctor.

Also during the three years of my university I was only capable to be a assistant nurse.

First when I told you that I wanted to be a doctor you were both very happy so I thought that you also wanted me to be a doctor.

After I graduated from university, I told you that I wanted to relax a bit it was only because I was afraid that if I went to attend a surgery I would mess up.

I wanted to tell you about it but I was never confident thinking that I will hurt you both.

Finally when I was ready to face you both, father was unwell and the doctor told us not to give him stress, so I refrained myself from talking to you about this matter.

And that's when you told me to attend the surgery of Mr. Long. I was so frightened that I decided to get their taking drugs so I will not be allowed to perform the surgery.

I-I a-am sorry Father and Mother I have let you down. I am a very bad daughter. I could not keep up to your expectations. I am sorry. I "

Until Wen Mei reached the last word of her speech she was crying so much that she couldn't even finish what she was going to say. Her legs felt weak and she ended up on her knees on the floor.
