When I Loved You Chapter 184

Published at 16th of September 2022 02:04:11 PM

After dropping Jiyoon off at home, Muyeol went back to his car. He wanted to see Yiyoung as soon as possible. Her shifts were on rotation, regardless of what day of the week it was.

Since it was a Saturday, she must be busy. But Muyeol wanted to see her, even if he couldn’t get near her.

After he reached the hospital, Muyeol parked the car and got out, a huge shopping bag in his hand. Yiyoung had recently been looking for some sweets to have in the afternoon.

“I think I’m going to get addicted to chocolates soon. I gain so much energy after having just one chocolate. I think I’m getting old,” Yiyoung had said.

So, Muyeol had prepared what she would like: chocolates that would help Yiyoung and the other staff members gain some energy in the afternoon.

The emergency room was busy as always. The ambulances kept ferrying, and there were countless visitors. Muyeol didn’t go inside the waiting room, not wanting to bother any of the hospital staff since they all knew who he was. So he stayed outside, but didn’t mind standing there because he knew he was close to Yiyoung. He knew the air he was breathing contained her clear, strong energy.

Yiyoung had overcome her trauma and panic disorder, and just as she had expected, she became a better doctor. She had always been needed in this world, but she was now even more valuable. Muyeol was proud to have her as his wife. To wake up next to a wonderful woman like her was amazing.

The corner of his lips lifted into his cheeks. Even standing in the same place as her felt good.

On Saturdays, the ER was worse than a warzone. The weather was beginning to get warmer, and many families went on outings over the weekend, so there were a lot of accidents involving families. Yiyoung couldn’t even sit down once until 2 o’ clock in the afternoon. The hospital had more staff to support it now, but it was still too busy to be handled. It was all due to the upgraded system, high-tech facilities, and the skilled doctors, which attracted more patients to S hospital. Yiyoung was exhausted after handling the increased traffic in the ER, but she was also grateful for having the opportunity to treat more patients.

After Muyeol’s speech about how S hospital was a way for S Corporation to pay back to the society, the staff’s perspective changed. The bonds between the staff members strengthened, and they no longer competed.

Their career required them to deal with people’s lives, which made them face fear and anxiety all the time, but their close relationship helped them maintain their focus during work. They overcame, supported, and looked for better paths together.

The new environment couldn’t completely root out the staff members who sought competition, but most of the staff had acknowledged a different path which didn’t require competition. And getting to know such colleagues made Yiyoung feel like she had gained long-term friends.

So, Yiyoung refused any high prominent positions from the hospital. The moment a position was offered, Yiyoung knew very well that the new environment would be affected because of her. Yoon Yiyoung, the doctor, was all she really wanted to be.

A sense of stillness suddenly took over the ER. Whenever the ER felt tranquil, Yiyoung grew nervous, wondering if a large crowd would rush in soon. So the moment there was silence in the ER, she knew she needed to eat immediately.

Yiyoung let out a deep breath and finally sat down. She was starving, but also didn’t want to eat. She wouldn’t be able to digest the food after rushing to eat, even if she was hungry.

“I wish someone would rain down chocolates on me,” she muttered to herself. She hoped to have some sweets that would allow her to gain some energy before she reached the point where her hands started trembling.
