Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

Chapter 947: Chapter 947: Through the Evaluation

The school leadership had already started organizing the students to provide immediate aid to the injured, treat their injuries, and administer emergency care. The doctor from the school clinic had arrived at the scene with a medical kit.

The police and the zoo staff were recording statements.

Everyone began methodically treating the injured and assessing their injuries, while waiting for ambulances to arrive to transport all the wounded to the hospital.

Fortunately, although these two lions attacked several people, they had just been fed in the zoo prior to escaping.

There were injuries, but no deaths.

Upon hearing this news, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief.

It’s well known that the zoo feeds their predators every three to five days, following the feeding patterns observed in animals in the wild.

These two lions had been well-fed. Had they escaped while hungry, it’s hard to say how many lives would have been lost today.

At that moment, a loud cry of a newborn pierced the air.

All eyes turned toward the car.

A tall young man emerged from the vehicle, swaddling a newborn in his clothes.

"The baby is born—it’s a boy! Very healthy."

Cheers erupted from the crowd.

As ambulances arrived, the injured were continuously loaded up and transported to the hospital.

Bai Xiao and Ma Yao breathed a sigh of relief; their bodies and faces were stained with blood.

Yet, as they looked at each other, their faces radiated joyful smiles.

They had succeeded.

Not only had they confronted danger head-on, but every one of them put in effort to help others, doing whatever they could within their abilities.

Smith and Mike arrived on the scene.

Vice Principal Zhao hurriedly went to greet them.

"Mr. Smith, Mr. Mike, I sincerely apologize for today’s incident. Because of what happened, I’m afraid this competition cannot proceed. I’m sorry you made this trip for nothing."

Smith and Mike solemnly bowed to all the students.

Everyone was stunned.

What was going on?

Vice Principal Zhao quickly tried to help them up.

"Vice Principal Zhao, students—today, you have demonstrated the essence of a healer’s compassion. Faced with danger, not only did you think about saving others, but you remained calm, handling the situation with everyone doing their utmost to contribute whatever they could.

Although you weren’t performing sutures or carrying out grand, life-saving surgeries, your noble medical ethics are even more admirable than your medical skills. This competition won’t be necessary anymore; you’ve already demonstrated perfection in handling this incident.

Moreover, none of you are doctors. Yet, in the face of such peril, you made accurate judgments, assisted in delivering the baby, provided aid to the injured, and fended off the dangerous lions. These actions embody the highest qualities of a medical professional.

Therefore, our evaluation of you is complete. We will submit this evaluation report to those above us and hereby express our deepest respect for all of you."

The crowd cheered as Ma Yao hugged Bai Xiao tightly and spun her around.

Several male students joined in by banging on their lunch boxes, making a celebratory racket.

There was no need to wait for the evaluators’ conclusion; if their performance hadn’t already passed the evaluation in Smith and Mike’s eyes, the crowd would have been shocked.

Everyone immediately understood—they had successfully cleared the evaluation.

Even though the evaluation process was nerve-racking, incidents like lions escaping from a zoo probably happen once in a century. Yet, by some twist of fate, they experienced it—and their notably exceptional performance became their evaluation score.

Though there were areas for improvement, their overall conduct in treating the injured, helping the pregnant woman, and preventing further lion attacks had displayed immense courage and a selfless spirit of saving lives, winning over the two evaluators entirely.

Smith and Mike walked up to Bai Xiao, bowing deeply. "Dr. Bai, you are an exceptionally qualified doctor—not only in treating illnesses and saving lives but also in your bravery and selflessness. You embody the brightest qualities of both a soldier and a doctor. We extend our utmost respect to you." noveldrama

When the two arrived earlier, they had witnessed Bai Xiao charging fearlessly at a lion, rolling on the ground with it.

A seemingly fragile young woman had revealed within her a tremendous force, facing danger with such courage and fearlessness.

Even the two of them admitted that, if they had been present, they might not have had the courage to confront such beasts.

Bai Xiao quickly replied, "This was all something we ought to do. Whether it’s as a doctor or as a person who strives for integrity, these were simply actions that were necessary."

After some polite exchanges, Bai Xiao underwent a check-up by emergency personnel, much to everyone’s relief. Apart from some minor external injuries, she had no significant harm.

No one knew how she managed to fight the lion. Even the claw marks left on her body were shallow—far from deep wounds—which felt almost miraculous.

The medical staff simply applied gauze to bandage her wounds; she didn’t even need to visit the hospital.

Smith approached Bai Xiao again. "Dr. Bai, could I have a word with you?"

The nurse who had been treating Bai Xiao finished her work and left, smiling.

Looking at Smith, Bai Xiao waited for the translator to speak.

"Mr. Smith, please feel free to say whatever is on your mind. If you’re inviting me to visit your country for academic research or exchange, I’ll have to decline. My studies here leave me little time to go away," Bai Xiao said confidently, having already prepared her excuse. Besides, she had secrets that couldn’t be exposed easily. Leaving her home turf could risk revealing them—and she might then vanish from this world forever.

This was no small matter.

Smith sighed. "Dr. Bai, that’s not what I wanted to discuss. Mike has a tumor that has been growing rapidly. We examined it with imaging yesterday—it was originally the size of a soybean, but now it has grown to the size of a walnut. This situation is very troubling.

I recall you mentioning before that your treatments in Traditional Chinese Medicine, including acupuncture, offer some therapeutic approaches. Surgery is not an option right now, but I’ve witnessed your acupuncture skills and realized my views were too limited. This world holds countless miraculous methods that defy my understanding.

I owe you an apology for my previous narrow-mindedness, and I hope you won’t mind helping Mike with his condition. He is my best friend, and I truly don’t want to lose him. Even if we could only temporarily alleviate or inhibit the growth of the tumor, it would buy us precious time.

You can see for yourself—my old friend works like he’s possessed. I had hoped he’d start hospital treatment immediately, but he refuses." Smith sounded utterly helpless. Mike’s tumor was growing so fast that he worried if they waited until Mike returned to his own country, the growth would be the size of a bowl.

After all, the tumor was located in his brain. By the time it had grown to the size of a walnut, it was already compressing surrounding nerves and blood vessels. It was frightening to imagine what might happen as it grew larger.

Mike was already suffering from intense headaches, and his vision had begun to blur.

If this continues, the consequences would be hard to imagine.
