Although it sounded pleasing, something felt off. Do I have a clue about my own level of expertise?
In any case, as long as there were noplications, that was fine, but he would need to checkter how Chen Cang managed to charm one million out of the procedure!
Back in his office, Zhang Zhixin was still puzzled, so he leaned in eagerly, ¡°Chen, you have to teach me!¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, ¡°What?¡±
Zhang Zhixin gave a fawning smile, ¡°Stop pretending, just tell me, how did you do it? 100 million for a breast job, my goodness, that¡¯s more than I make from ten! Did I used to charge too little?¡±
Chen Cang gave a slight smile, ¡°The surgery fee is 10 million, the rest, 90 million, is mine, so don¡¯t even think about it.¡±
Zhang Zhixin nodded eagerly, ¡°Yes, yes, keeping business and personal separate, I understand that, but¡ you must teach me, how to deal with wealthy women? I feel I¡¯mcking in that area!¡±
Chen Cang looked at him stunned for a moment before speaking earnestly, ¡°Boss Zhang, that¡¯s not right. We make our living with skills, not by deceiving people.¡±
¡°You¡¯ll understand why I charge 150,000 when you see Fu Yn¡¯s results. Oh, and here¡¯s the photo from before the surgery, go take a look.¡±
Zhang Zhixin, hearing this, took the photo and had a look, hmm, a ssic case of hypomastia, and rather a severe one. Even with cosmetic treatment, it would be challenging¡
Moreover¡ even with surgery, the results wouldn¡¯t be very noticeable.
After some thought, he decided to go up and see Fu Yn for himself.
After knocking and entering, Zhang Zhixin nodded to exin his visit, ¡°I was at the hospital today, didn¡¯t manage toe over, this¡ Yn, let me see how you¡¯re doing.¡±
Fu Yn nodded, unashamed, slowly unfastening the dressing on her chest.
To be honest, even for Zhang Zhixin, who was experienced and specialized in this field, he was taken aback upon seeing Fu Yn¡¯s results!
So beautiful!
So exquisite!
So natural and delicate.
Although it was right after surgery, this kind of naturally perfect look certainly wasn¡¯t something the average person could achieve.
And the symmetry of both sides, the handling of details, the steadiness of the position, the proportioning of the design¡
The more Zhang Zhixin looked, the more amazed he was, the more he felt awed and humbled!
¡
As he left, Zhang Zhixin sighed deeply.
He finally understood why Chen Cang dared to charge a million for the surgery.
Zhang Zhixin was a professional himself, and well aware of the difficulties of surgery. To achieve what Chen Cang managed, you¡¯d need the experience of thousands of surgeries; otherwise, you were basically dreaming!
With such surgical oues, he would also dare to charge a million if it were his own work.
But the crux of the matter was that he himself couldn¡¯t produce such results for a million-dor makeover.
That was the most important point.
This was the difference!
Reflecting on this, Zhang Zhixin couldn¡¯t help but sigh, beginning to doubt his life choices.
Both just humans, both surgeons by training, yet why is there such a vast gap between people?
However, this self-doubt was quickly dispelled after Chen Cang treated him to several skewers of kidneys, chives, and oysters.
Actually, following Chen Cang and being a salted fish wasn¡¯t so bad¡
¡°Ah! Boss, bring another two tes of kidneys!¡±

Chapter 170: Chapter 171: Saving the Child! (7th Update ¨C Request for Monthly Votes)
The time for shift change was almost upon them, and as Li Baoshan entered, everyone fell silent.
Li Baoshan looked at the crowd, especially nced at Chen Cang, and nodded, ¡°Alright, there¡¯s no need to worry about Chen Cang anymore. Let¡¯s focus on our work. However, this incident should serve as a wake-up call for us.¡±
¡°It shows that there are still some issues with our duty system, such as ack of effectivemunication and coordination among colleagues, and so on¡¡±
¡°These are the areas we need to improve.¡±
Everyone nodded in agreement. Yuan Fan also breathed a sigh of relief at this point; thankfully, it had nothing to do with him.
Just then, Li Baoshan suddenly said, ¡°Yuan Fan.¡±
Yuan Fan shuddered and quickly stood up, ¡°Director!¡±
Li Baoshan nodded, ¡°Starting today, you¡¯ll go to the physical examination center. The hospital¡¯s physical examination center is temporarily short-staffed; you¡¯ll go help out there.¡±
Upon hearing this, Yuan Fan was dumbstruck¡
The physical examination center¡
The physical examination center at the Provincial Second Hospital was a leisurely post, busy for only a few months in a year, meaning one wouldn¡¯t earn much within a year, and more importantly, there was no future prospects ¨C it was one of those dead-end jobs where everyone could foresee their post-graduation life on the first day of work.
Those who ended up there were either being disciplined, didn¡¯t want to work hard, or were nurses who had transferred over.
After all, the physical examination center at Provincial Second Hospital¡ was really subpar!
A graduate master in surgery like me going to the physical examination center¡
Yuan Fan felt a sudden chill in his heart!
He had thought he could avoid it. Who had exposed him?
At that thought, Yuan Fan¡¯s heart was in turmoil, filled with fearful uncertainty.
Was it finally time for the reckoning after autumn?
He nced at Chen Cang, ming him. Are you satisfied now?
At this thought, Yuan Fan couldn¡¯t bear to lift his head, feeling utterly humiliated!
Yet, after a while, he slowly raised his head and suddenly realized that no one was paying attention to him¡
He abruptly noticed that not a single person was concerned about him, not even a sigh in response to the news regrettably, there was none!
No one even bothered to look up when they heard the news, as if there was no such person as Yuan Fan.
Suddenly, Yuan Fan felt that his departure might not be such a bad thing after all. He saw how poorly he had navigated social interactions and felt instantly disheartened¡ It was just as well to leave! After all, he didn¡¯t belong here.
Yuan Fan¡¯s departure didn¡¯t cause any ripple in the department, nor did it make it busier by virtue of one fewer person.
On the contrary, all work carried on smoothly, as if no one was feeling sentimental or anything of the sort over Yuan Fan¡¯s departure.
Everyone went about their business as usual, doing what they had to do.
An Yanjun hurried into the office, ¡°Director, the equipment for the hand surgery has arrived; we can start performing surgeries in the hand surgery department very soon!¡±
Upon saying this, An Yanjun was somewhat excited, finally able to realize his grand ambitions. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
After all, the most he usually did was stitches and trauma treatment, and for a hand surgeon like him not to have a decent operating room was indeed an awkward situation. Today, all the equipment for the operating room had finally arrived!
Upon hearing this, Li Baoshan instantly became joyful as well!
Smiling at Chen Cang, he said, ¡°Chen Cang, you¡¯ve been helping Director An a lot recently. You¡¯ve managed to establish a good reputation for our orthopedic surgery department. You¡¯ve even extended your help to the provincial people¡¯s hospital. Now that we have an operating room, you better stick close to it and not run off anymore!¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°I guarantee toplete the mission!¡±
What Li Baoshan actually worried about was not anything else but the possibility of Chen Cang being poached. After all, there were quite a few people eyeing him covetously. The news of Fang Yonglin¡¯s sessful surgery had not yet spread. If the news got out, who knows how many people would want to have a chat with Chen Cang about life, discuss ideals, and future ns!
In thest few days, the number of emergency surgeries had gradually increased, keeping Chen Cang and Wang Yong constantly busy.
A little after three in the afternoon, just as Chen Cang had returned from the operating room, a middle-aged man came rushing in, carrying a child in his arms!
¡°Doctor, save my child!¡±
¡°Doctor, please save my child!¡±
Chen Cang heard the cries from afar and hurried over!
Nurse Chang Lina also quickly went to meet them, ¡°What happened, what¡¯s the matter?¡±
The middle-aged man¡¯s face was pale with anxiety, and his eyes were full of pleading, ¡°My child shoved an eraser up their nose and now it won¡¯te out. They started coughing intensely after inserting it. 1 picked them up and ran here, but now the child seems to be suffocating¡ Doctor, you must save my child!¡±
As the man spoke, tears began to pour down his face.
The man wasn¡¯t very old, around his early thirties, and the child appeared to be just three or four years old!
[Ding! Mission triggered: Save the child. Uponpletion, reward: 2 skill points!]
Chen Cang suddenly heard the system prompt, but had no time to pay attention to it.
Exactly as the man described, it must be a foreign body causing an obstruction in the airway.
This situation could be minor or serious. Usually, if the foreign object is small, it might just cause inmmation, but if left untreated for too long, it can lead to suffocation and even endanger life!
The little girl was only about three years old, at the age when children start attending kindergarten.
With this in mind, Chen Cang quickly got up, carrying the child as he ran towards the endoscopy room!
¡°Come with me to the endoscopy room to see if we can remove the foreign object with the scope!¡±
The man was stunned for a moment, but then quickly followed Chen Cang toward the endoscopy room!
If Chen Cang had let the man carry the child at this time, he might have caused the foreign object to go deeper inadvertently, which wouldplicate matters¡
Because children¡¯s airways are already narrow, and an eraser is not small. If the eraser was near the top, it could be removed with bronchoscopic forceps.
But now, after carrying the child this long with all the jolting, Chen Cang was worried that the foreign object had moved further down, in which case the bronchoscope wouldn¡¯t be able to remove it!
With every passing second, they were racing against the Grim Reaper!
Chen Gang¡¯s speed was already very fast!
Upon arriving at the door of the endoscopy room, Chen Cang said to the nurse, ¡°Hurry and open the door. We have a child suffocating here, we need to check with the bronchoscope and remove the foreign object!¡±
The nurse, taken aback, quickly opened the door to the endoscopy room. Chen Cang rushed in, and then said to the man, ¡°You stay out here for now!¡±
The director of the endoscopy room was Xiao He, not very old, just in his early forties, and was a leader of the new generation!
Seeing Chen Cang rush in with the child, his eyes narrowed. Without asking, he had a pretty good idea of the situation, ¡°This way!¡±
Upon seeing this, Chen Cang hurriedly carried the child over!
¡°Director Xiao, this is an emergency case. The child was just brought in, they¡¯ve inhaled an eraser into their nose, and now their breathing is weak. I¡¯m afraid they won¡¯tst long!¡±
On hearing this, Xiao He immediately nodded, got up to start the machine, and said, ¡°Put the child here, let¡¯s see if we can get it out..¡±
Chapter 171 - 172: Shi Qi is good for nothing (Eight updates - Vote for monthly tickets!)
Chapter 171: Chapter 172: Shi Qi is good for nothing (Eight updates ¨C Vote for monthly tickets!)
Children, out of ignorance and curiosity, often y with small objects and end up sticking them into their noses or mouths, sometimes blocking their esophagus or airway.
If it ends up in the esophagus, it¡¯s still somewhat manageable, but if it enters the airway, things often be serious.
Clearly, this child was unlucky.
Xiao He started the machine, got ready, picked up the bronchoscope, and slowly entered the airway. Soon, an image appeared on the screen.
A piece of rubber, about the size of the pad of a little finger, was stuck deep in the airway!
Chen Cang and Xiao He couldn¡¯t help but frown!
Although it wasn¡¯tpletely blocking the airway, if it went any further, that would be trouble¡
Chen Cang, somewhat worried, cautiously asked, ¡°How is it, Director, can it be removed?¡±
Xiao He shook his head: ¡°This position is tricky to work with, it¡¯s a bit difficult, but I¡¯ll try¡¡±
¡°If it doesn¡¯t work, we¡¯ll have to open the chest!¡±
Thoracotomy for a bronchial cut isn¡¯t considered major surgery, just a level-one procedure in thoracic surgery. But even as a level-one, it carries many risks since the trachea is situated in a delicate area surrounded by organs that are easily damaged. A slight misstep can easily lead to numerousplications.
Due to the limited capabilities of the surgeons, postoperative bleeding, pneumothorax, and even sudden respiratory arrest and otherplex issues often ur.
It would be best if the rubber could be removed under bronchoscopic guidance¡
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but pray a bit more¡
Xiao He, serious and focused, began to carefully pick up the bronchoscope forceps, steadily inching closer, trying to grab the obstruction.
Regrettably, at that moment, the breathing became somewhat rapid, and the respiratory muscles even nearly induced a spasm.
Trouble!
Xiao He¡¯s brow suddenly furrowed with urgency, knowing there weren¡¯t many chances to extract it¡ªonly this one. If an attempt with the endoscopic forceps failed, there was a risk of suffocation!
Even the nurse standing by began to feel nervous.
Chen Cang watched Xiao He¡¯s procedure with cautious eyes.
This type of endoscopic surgery requires a strong sense of spatial awareness from the surgeon. The bronchus is already narrow, so the procedure is very delicate!
In Xiao He¡¯s hands, the bronchial forceps were like fingers, but¡ they just couldn¡¯t extract it, and sometimes, even though it was grasped, the rubber was lodged inside the respiratory muscle and couldn¡¯t be removed.
Moreover¡ during thest attempt, the angle of the rubber had changed, and this angle was already dangerous¡
If it couldn¡¯t be sessfully extracted next time, it could lead to suffocation, right?
With this thought, Xiao He¡¯s face changed!
He hurriedly removed the bronchoscope and solemnly looked at Chen Cang.
His eyes were serious: ¡°No good! Can¡¯t get it out. If we try again, there might be a risk of suffocation. The current angle is tooplex, we can¡¯t mess with it anymore!¡±
After saying that, Xiao He looked at Chen Cang: ¡°Call thoracic surgery right away, prepare for surgery, otherwise¡ if we dy any longer, the child is going to be in trouble.¡±
¡°Transferring hospitals is definitely out of the question now, so prepare for surgery right here in the endoscopy room!¡±
Xiao He was very decisive, bluntlyying out the n to Chen Cang.
¡°If we carry the child out, not to mention other issues, just this condition alone, she won¡¯tst much longer!¡±
Chen Cang lowered his head and noticed the girl¡¯s lips were turning a little purple, her breathing was weak, she tried to catch her breath, but then came a round of violent coughing¡
At that moment, the young nurse suddenly said, ¡°Director¡ thoracic surgery has been disbanded.¡±
Upon hearing this, Xiao He pped his forehead, suddenly recalling!
Damn, thoracic surgery really is crap!
¡°Call Shi Qi, let hime down. Just say there¡¯s a surgery, a tracheotomy, it¡¯s not a major procedure, Shi Qi should know how to do it, right?¡±
Xiao He¡¯s remark about Shi Qi probably knowing how¡ was actually meant more for himself¡
Who knew if Shi Qi knew how to perform it!
Thoracic surgery had been established for three years, but the operations were basically all for lung cancer; they rarely performed minor surgeries.
Thoracic surgery should be an emergency department, but Shi Qi had managed to turn it into apletely useless section.
The Oncology Department of the Provincial Second Hospital is the strongest department, with four wards in internal medicine, 300 beds, and a multitude of patients. It is also a national key department.
That¡¯s why Qin Xiaoyuan agreed to Shi Qi¡¯s proposal to establish a thoracic surgery department. After all, lung cancer is the mostmon tumor, and the creation of the thoracic surgery department was to help with the development of the Provincial Second Hospital.
You should know, with the support of such a behemoth like the Oncology Department of the Provincial Second Hospital, the thoracic surgery department is hardly short of patients!
However, Shi Qi is also quite a character, capably turning such a sure-win department into a waste!
It¡¯s nothing short of a miracle!
The call was quickly connected.
Xiao He picked up the phone, ¡°Shi Qi, this is Xiao He.¡±
As soon as Shi Qi heard this, he hurriedly asked with augh, ¡°Director Xiao, what¡¯s happening?¡±
Xiao He was in no mood for small talk, ¡°Right now in the endoscopy room, there¡¯s a child, about three years old, with a foreign object in the airway. I just tried to remove it with a bronchoscope forceps, but I couldn¡¯t manage it. Now¡ the situation is quite critical; you need toe down quickly. We need to make an incision to remove the foreign object!¡±
Shi Qi¡¯s face changed!
I study breast cancer, how the hell are you asking me to perform this surgery? 1 wouldn¡¯t know how!
In fact, although Shi Qi doesn¡¯t know how, Li Shijian might, even if examples of airway foreign body removal via tracheotomy are too rare!
But-
Li Shijian had resigned.
Upon hearing these words, Shi Qi hurriedly made excuses, ¡°Director Xiao, I¡¯m¡ not in the hospital right now, I can¡¯t make it over in a short time!¡±
Xiao He¡¯s face turned grim!
This is bad, Shi Qi isn¡¯t even in the hospital.
Then over the phone came, ¡°Director Shi, have you changed the discharge order for bed 23?¡±
With a single sentence, Xiao He snorted coldly!
Cowardly, shrinking back at the first sign of trouble, with no real skill or knowledge, an absolute waste!
It seems that the hospital¡¯s assessment of Shi Qi is not wrong at all!
Determinedly hanging up the phone, Xiao He frowned.
What to do?
Should he just watch the child get into trouble?
Turning to Chen Cang, ¡°Xiao Chen, call Director Li.¡±
Chen Cang shook his head, ¡°No need, Director Li is probably in surgery right now. I¡¯ll do it myself, Xiao He, push the child into the treatment room. Get a nurse and prepare the instruments.¡±
Xiao He was taken aback, ¡°Can¡ can you do it?¡±
Chen Cang nodded!
Even if I can¡¯t, I have to!
Chen Cang was relieved, thank goodness he had switched careers¡ otherwise, in this situation, it really wouldn¡¯t have been good.
He spent 1 skill point to learn [Tracheotomy];
Then he spent another 2 points to upgrade [Tracheotomy] to an intermediate level.
Chen Cang figured that should be about right?
Xiao He did not know much about Chen Cang, but seeing his certainty, he nodded to the nurse beside him.
¡°Xiao Yang, go assist Doctor Chen in preparing the instruments, and call Xiao Xu in to help.¡±
The endoscopy room may be a diagnostic department, but it¡¯s often necessary to carry out some procedures, so all the necessary instruments are avable. Besides, a tracheotomy doesn¡¯t require too many things! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After spending a few minutes, Xiao He followed Chen Cang into the treatment room to start preparing for surgery!
ps: Well, one can foresee that the surgery will start in 12 hours¡ This child has been struggling for twelve hours, will they survive¡ Dear readers, have sympathy, I didn¡¯t mean to leave a cliffhanger, there won¡¯t be more suspense if there is any more tearing¡

Chapter 172: Chapter 173: Repentance is the Most Useless Apology (Vote for Monthly Tickets-)
Generally speaking, for foreign body airway obstruction, the mostmonly used method is the Heimlich maneuver.
The principle is to use an impact on the abdominal area, beneath the diaphragm¡¯s soft tissues. The sudden impact creates an upward pressure,pressing the lower part of the lungs to drive the remaining air to form a flow. This impactful and directional airflow can dislodge the object blocking the throat and save the person¡¯s life.
However, the Heimlich maneuver also has a high risk ofplications and is not very effective.
The little girl¡¯s father was clearly not proficient in this operation.
By the time she was brought to the hospital, the little girl had already lost consciousness; at such a critical juncture, the Heimlich maneuver is not the most effective measure.
In the hospital, the choice of bronchoscopy and tracheotomy is much more appropriate than the Heimlich maneuver.
If Chen Cang were outside, in the courtyard facing such a patient, he would definitely use the Heimlich maneuver for emergency aid.
But if the patient¡¯s breath and heartbeat stopped, at this time, one should not hit the patient¡¯s back but should contact the hospital promptly.
The endoscopy room¡¯s treatment room facility at the Second Provincial Hospital is highly equipped. Although it cannot bepared with the operating room, it is sufficient for conducting a tracheotomy.
However, since it is a surgery, no matter the size, one must sign a bunch of paperwork with family members including informed consent forms and surgery consent forms. Although the situation is urgent, Chen Cang must also attend to these matters.
Don¡¯t think these things are dispensable. Since it¡¯s called surgery, it means there is a certain level of risk and limitations; nothing is absolutely foolproof.
Chen Cang exited the door of the endoscopy room and saw a man and a woman arguing!
To be precise, a woman dressed in what seemed like a bank professional suit stood there, with tears streaming down her face, pointing at a man sitting on a chair.
¡°Xu Liang, what can you, a grown man, do? You can¡¯t even watch your child, spending all your time ying those damn games! You want to y, yeah? Why aren¡¯t you ying now? I¡¯m telling you, if anything happens to the child, we are getting a divorce!¡±
Xu Liang buried his head between his legs, his hands clutching the back of his head, letting the woman curse him out without saying a word.
This really was his fault! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
If something really happened to the child, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
His mind kept reying her sweet smile, and to Xu Liang, it felt as if knives were slicing cuts into his heart!
Does it hurt?
The heartaches like it¡¯s being carved with knives!
Xu Liang would even use his own life in exchange for his child¡¯s life.
She was only three years old!
Cute, sensible, always smiling.
Just thesest few days, he finally taught her the phic alphabet. Sweetie was so happy, seemingly filled with endless enthusiasm for those letters, reading aloud over and over again, writing from memory time and again.
Every time Xu Liang thought of this, he couldn¡¯t wait to throw away his phone!
If he hadn¡¯t yed games, if he had stayed with the child to finish her homework, helped her read out the phic letters, watched her grow up¡
How wonderful that would have been!
With these thoughts, tears dropped from Xu Liang¡¯s eyes onto the ground.
It¡¯s not about being wronged!
It¡¯s about remorse!
It¡¯s about helplessness!
Life is only once, no one pays for your mistakes, Xu Liang¡¯s hands dug into his hair, his scalp, even¡ into his flesh!
But this pain is nothing.
Nothing is as important as little Sweetie¡¯s life at this moment.
Thinking back on every little moment of life, remembering his adorable daughter sitting on top of his head, plucking at his hair while teasing, ¡®Daddy¡¯s hair is so oily, Daddy doesn¡¯t wash his hair¡¯, Xu Liang could no longer hold back and burst into loud sobs.
He was terrified!
He was scared to death!
He was full of regret, an agony beyond words!
His wife¡¯s scolding, venting, and anger were somehow a relief to him.
Scold me!
I was wrong!
I truly repent¡
My wife¡¯s anger and irritation, instead, provided me with a slight relief from my sense of guilt.
¡°Xu Liang, you owe me, you owe my daughter¡¡± The woman cried messily, her professional suit smeared with snot and tears, but none of that mattered, what could be more important than one¡¯s child?
The other patients around them also sighed!
No one med orined.
Too many stories unfold every day in the hospital, there¡¯s joy, anger, consideration, sadness, fear, there¡¯s separation and reunion, there¡¯s¡
Everyone just looked at the woman with sympathy.
What else could they do?
Seeing this, Chen Cang approached, ¡°That, family member of the patient.¡±
As Xu Liang saw Chen Cang, he quickly stood up, ¡°Doctor, Doctor! How¡¯s my daughter?¡±
The woman also quieted down suddenly, her eyes brimming with tears, ¡°Doctor¡ Doctor, how¡¯s Sweetie?¡±
Chen Cang looked at Xu Liang, whose face was still streaked with tears, ¡°Don¡¯t be so nervous, the child is not in immediate danger for her life, but we can¡¯t remove the bronchoscope forceps, surgery is needed to open up the trachea and remove the foreign object, I need your signature.¡±
On hearing there was no immediate danger to life, Xu Liang and the woman both breathed a sigh of relief!
After all, when the child was brought in, her breathing was so faint it nearly vanished¡
Xu Liang quickly nodded, ¡°I¡¯ll sign! I¡¯ll sign whatever! Doctor¡ you must save the child, no matter how much it costs, whatever it takes, okay?¡±
Chen Cang nodded seriously, ¡°Yes, I¡¯ll do my best.¡±
After Chen Cang had the nurses exin the paperwork to the family and had them sign it, he returned to the operating room to prepare the various instruments needed for the surgery, along with the requisite drugs.
Chen Cang began to exin and arrange the work toe, everything proceeding in an orderly, calm fashion.
Chen Cang¡¯s mature performance relieved Xiao He of the nerves he had earlier.
But it also sparked his curiosity: this young man really had the poise and demeanor of an emergency physician, as if everything was well in hand.
How was it that he wasn¡¯t very familiar with such an outstanding young man?
After all, the endoscopy room often faced many critical situations, and it was rare to see this young mane to help.
Could he be new here?
The nurse walked in, holding the signed documents, and said to Chen Cang,
¡°Dr. Chen, he¡¯s signed everything.¡±
Chen Cang nodded and nced at Xiao He, ¡°Let¡¯s start! Director, could you help me position the child¡¯s head.¡±
Xiao He nodded, understanding Chen Cang¡¯s intention. Although it wasn¡¯t thoracic surgery, positioning the head to center the trachea was basic medical knowledge.
Chen Cang began the routine procedure of disinfection and draping.
All of a sudden, Chen Cang realized, if a soldier takes pride in their nket-folding skills, then we surgeons definitely have a smooth and sharp talent forying sheets!
At the very least, it¡¯s at a perfect level!
¡°1% lidocaine + 1 drop of adrenaline!¡±
The nurse nodded, these had already been prepared in advance.
This type of anesthesia was a local infiltration anesthesia, and Chen Cang began to slowly inject it from the subcartginous area to the suprasternal notch.
The reason Chen Cang hadn¡¯t called Liu Jian was precisely due to this: if the patient was still bouncing around during a tracheostomy, a professional anesthetist would be required for intravenous medication.
This local anesthesia wasn¡¯t much different from treating a small wound..

(Vote for Monthly Ticket!)
Chen Cang took the scalpel and began the procedure!
1 he human body is the most precise andplex instrument, and the neck is a bridge within the body.
1 here are many things there, but those most closely rted to our daily lives are the trachea and esophagus.
Interestingly, both the trachea and esophagus are directly connected to the pharynx above. During breathing, the airway to the trachea opens while swallowing, the food passage opens, and the airway closes to prevent errors. Therefore, when we perform nasogastric intubation or gastroscopy in clinical practice, we often need the patient to cooperate by swallowing to prevent the tube from mistakenly entering the trachea, causing choking and endangering life. I hemon practice of not talking orughing loudly while eating is also to prevent food from mistakenly entering the trachea and causing suffocation. Even when performing artificial respiration, one needs to lift the lower jaw and tilt back the neck to open the airway, facilitating the entry of air into the lungs during artificial respiration.
The trachea is in front, the esophagus behind. Kids who have watched ¡®Saw¡¯ might remember a scene where a man, unable to breathe with a fishbowl over his head, used a pen to pierce his own trachea directly, opening the airway, thus preventing suffocation and death.
So this tells us that we should have medical knowledge, because even if we¡¯re captured by Pighead, we wouldn¡¯t end up killing ourselves with a pen trying to open the airway¡
Of course, I don¡¯t rmend learning this, because the neck is the most dangerous ce. It¡¯s not advisable to try this¡
The surgery slowly proceeded!
Chen Cang started making an incision just below the cricoid cartge, right up to the suprasternal notch in the middle,yer byyer peeling back his tissues.
He cut through the subcutaneous tissue, slit through and separated the tysma muscle, and bluntly dissected along the incision direction until reaching the thyroid nd.
He lifted the lower pole of the thyroid isthmus, exposing tracheal rings 2 to 4. Chen Cang took the forceps, bluntly cut through the pretracheal fascia to expose the trachea, and made a midline incision between the 2nd and 3rd rings; by then, the obstructing foreign body could be seen.
Chen Gang¡¯s eyes caught sight of a red ¡°eraser¡± there!
Chen Cang suddenly realized his eyes were stronger than any bronchoscope, CT, X-ray, or MRI.
Of course, this was under the precondition that he had opened the skin and tissue to see inside, which was a limitation. He should probably send feedback to the system and see if his eyesight could be upgraded.
Chen Cang made an incision below in the airway, and logically extracted the object!
It was a piece of eraser covered in blood, now sessfully removed.
Next was suturing.
This was the first time Chen Cang had performed a trachea suture, but in fact, the principles are all simr.
The surgery waspleted. N?v(el)B\\jnn
The little girl¡¯s condition gradually improved, and her breathing became smoother.
She should be able to wake up before long.
Xiao He looked at Chen Cang, unable to resist giving a thumbs-up, ¡°Impressive, Dr. Chen! Your emergency skills are truly remarkable.¡±
The surgery itself wasn¡¯t difficult; the only concern had been the possibility of intraoperativeplications. Now that the patient was stable, Chen Cang naturally felt the tension easing.
Hearing Xiao He praise him, Chen Cang smiled slightly, ¡°I just know a bit of emergency care; it¡¯s nothing to joke about, Director Xiao.¡±
Xiao He chuckled, impressed with the young man.
¡°Dr. Chen, give me your phone number. In the future, our endoscopy room will surely need the emergency room¡¯s help often. With you there, I also have less running around to do,¡± Xiao He said to Chen Cang, not addressing him as ¡°Little Chen¡± but as ¡°Dr. Chen.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, exchanged contact information, and pushed the little girl out of the endoscopy room.
Aftering out, Xu Liang and his wife were already anxiously waiting and quickly approached.
¡°Dr. Chen, is everything all right?¡±
Chen Cang nodded: ¡°Everything¡¯s fine; the surgery went smoothly, and she should wake up in a bit, but she¡¯ll stay in the emergency room today to be observed.¡±
Xu Liang kept nodding, feeling like he had been redeemed now that his child was out of danger!
The woman stopped crying, running back and forth nervously.
After returning to the emergency room, Chen Cang asked the man to settle the fees and asked the duty nurse to clear the expenses with the endoscopy room.
Emergency room charges were always moreplicated, and the nurse¡¯s job in the emergency room was more cumbersome than in regr departments since it involved dealing with multiple departments, leading to more intricate financial entanglements.
About an hourter, Xu Liang rushed in, ¡°Doctor Chen, Doctor Chen, Sweetie¡¯s awake!¡±
(Ding! Mission aplished, saved the little girl with a foreign body airway obstruction, reward: Skill points +2!]
He begrudgingly epted the two skill points, muttering to himself: Lost a point¡
But skills were permanent, and emergency skills like these were essential. Besides, even without a reward, who would just stand by and not save a dying child?
Who would leave a little girl hanging there for twelve hours?
Not something Chen Cang could do!
Chen Cang smiled, stood up, and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go see the child.¡±
Xu Liang smiled eagerly and led the way.
Inside the observation room, the little girl¡¯s face and lips were ruddy and lustrous, and she had a smile on her face. Upon seeing Chen Cang, she tried to speak, ¡°Uncle¡ cough, cough!¡±
Chen Cang smiled and walked to the bedside, ¡°Don¡¯t talk these next few days, your throat might hurt. You can¡¯t stuff things into your nose or mouth in the¡¯ future, got it?¡±
Chen Cang patted the little girl¡¯s head, rubbing her soft hair, and in that moment he suddenly felt that spending a few extra skill points was all worth it.
1 he little girl, upon hearing Chen Gang¡¯s prohibition from speaking, quickly covered her mouth with her little hand, her big eyes earnestly looking at Chen Cang as she nodded vigorously.
This caused everyone present to burst into heartyughter.
Chen Cang looked at the adorable little girl.
This must be the sense of aplishment in medicine, right?
When you see each critical life pulled back from the brink by your hands, the sense of achievement is unparalleled.
The happiness of a bird is to have the sky.
The happiness of a fish is to have the ocean.
And the happiness of a doctor is to have no patients.
Chen Cang remembered a saying: ¡°I¡¯d rather have dust on my medicine cab than see the world¡¯s people ill; if everyone in the world were happy, I could do without this system.¡±
1 he little girl, staring at Chen Cang, suddenly stood up, walked slowly over, hugged Chen Gang¡¯s head, and whispered in his ear, ¡°Uncle, you¡¯re so handsome. When Sweetie grows up, can I marry you?¡±
That sentence left Chen Cang astonished.
Is it that obvious I¡¯m single?
Even a three-year-old girl can tell I¡¯m single!
1 hinking this, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but feel a mix of amusement and resignation.
Chen Cang whispered in response, ¡°Why¡¯s that?¡±
¡®I he little girl, with an innocent face and sparkling big eyes, looked intently at Chen Cang, took a step back, stood on the bed, and performed a sincere curtsy, saying word by word, ¡°To repay the life-saving grace, this little girl has nothing to offer in return but to pledge herself to you!¡±
Chen Cang almost burst outughing at her earnestness!
The patients around, including Xu Liang and the child¡¯s mother, all burst into uproariousughter.
Children these days, so clever and adorable!
Chen Cang stood up, patted the child¡¯s head, ¡°Uncle will wait for you!¡±

Chapter 174: Chapter 175: Don¡¯t Tear Us Apart (Pleading for Monthly Tickets)
The observation room was dead still, but the addition of Tiantian could be said to have brought a bit more vitality to the hospital.
Everyone liked to tease the child.
Unfortunately, without Chen Cang speaking, Tiantian firmly covered her mouth with her hand and kept silent.
Xu Liang, seeing his daughter was all right now, felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his heart and was filled with relief.
His wife also felt at ease enough to reproach him, looking at Xu Liang, ¡°Let¡¯s see if you take child care seriously from now on!¡±
Xu Liang, with righteous indignation, picked up his phone, looked at his daughter, and said, ¡°Tiantian, Daddy swears never to y games again, I¡¯ll y with you every day!¡±
After saying this, he picked up his phone and decisively uninstalled the game.
Chen Cang sighed¡ªthe game could be reinstalled if removed, but a lost child could not be brought back.
There had been too many incidents in the emergency room due to men watching children!
Truth be told, men are truly irresponsible with children. Justst year, a little boy ate all of his mother¡¯s lipstick after breaking it.
The child ended up fine, but that man was quite miserable, so they say.
There¡¯s a saying online that a father¡¯s child care at most guarantees the child stays alive, but it seems now this statement is up for debate!
Seeing the child was fine, Chen Cang felt relieved and left the ward.
As soon as he walked out the door, Xu Liang and his wife pulled Chen Cang to the corner of the stairway.
Chen Cang was taken aback¡ªis this an attempted abduction?
But¡ both of them together?
Considering what the little girl said before, Chen Cang immediately understood ¡ªit wasn¡¯t about money or abduction!
It was¡
An elopement?!
Xu Liang took out a stack of money from his pocket and tried to stuff it into Chen Cang¡¯s pocket!
Chen Cang quickly stepped back, immediately refusing.
Xu Liang, with a serious and grateful expression, said, ¡°Doctor Chen, this is my way of showing gratitude. You saved my child, I¡¯m endlessly thankful. This is just a small token of appreciation. If you don¡¯t ept it, I really won¡¯t be able to forgive myself!¡±
The woman by his side also said, ¡°Doctor Chen, you must ept it! You¡¯re our family¡¯s savior, we don¡¯t even know what to say or what you like, so please buy something for yourself.¡±
Chen Cang sighed, looked at the two, ¡°Actually, this money, if you give it to me, I¡¯d have to go and pay your bills with it. I¡¯m quite busy and don¡¯t have the time to do that, so you¡¯d better keep it.¡±
¡°This is a hallway, and people are alwaysing and going. Let¡¯s not cause a scene that would make things awkwardter.¡±
After Chen Cang finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Leaving the couple to look at each other in bewilderment.
[Ding! The task of Medical Ethics and Professionalism is triggered, refusing to ept the red envelope, earning +1 Skill Point!]
Chen Cang was stunned!
What the heck?
This works too!
He had scored a big win!
For Chen Cang, skill points were far more precious than money.
It seemed that Mr. Room had given him an impressive task¡ªthis was a top-tier NPC, a real big shot. Thinking this, Chen Cang felt that he would undoubtedly go further and further on the path of saving lives, offering help, and upholding justice!
Tiantian was supposed to be discharged that day, but she just didn¡¯t want to go. No matter what anyone said, she wanted to stay in the hospital for a few more days. After discussing it, Xu Liang and his wife decided to stay for a few more days, at least for peace of mind. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
So, like that, the emergency room saw the addition of a little girl who brought a pink lunchbox every day, and Chen Cang found himself with a little wifey who delivered his meals.
Every day at mealtime, Tiantian would bring over a small Peppa Pig pink lunch box to Chen Cang, urging him to eat.
If Chen Cang wouldn¡¯t eat, she simply wouldn¡¯t leave, so he had no choice but to eat.
Little Tiantian stood there, the picture of domesticity, and once Chen Cang had finished eating, she would grab the lunch box and run off with a smile.
Thus, the emergency room¡¯s routine was brightened by the presence of this little girl, acting like a lubricant to the tension and anxiety, putting more smiles on everyone¡¯s faces.
As soon as Tiantian entered the doctors¡¯ office, everyone would tease, ¡°Chen Cang, your little wifey has brought you lunch!¡±
Chen Cang gave an embarrassed smile.
But Tiantian, her face beaming with happiness, seemed even more thrilled than if she had eaten honey.
This time, after Chen Cang had finished eating, Tiantian climbed onto a chair nearby, took a tissue from her pocket, and carefully wiped Chen Cang¡¯s mouth. The sight set off a round of yful jeers from everyone!
And she wiped thoroughly, very carefully, once done, Tiantian tilted her head and pointed at her own cheek at Chen Cang.
Chen Cangughed heartily, picked her up, and nted a kiss on her cheek!
Truth be told, he really had grown to like this little girl, she was so adorable!
Tiantian¡¯s cheeks instantly flushed red.
Seeing Tiantian so endearing, Wang Qian couldn¡¯t hold back either, hurrying over to hug the child, ¡°Tiantian, Uncle wants a kiss too!¡±
Tiantian¡¯s expression changed, and she took off running!
After bolting out and seeing that no one was chasing her, she circled back, crept stealthily into the room once she saw Wang Qian wasn¡¯t there, grabbed her lunchbox, and scampered away.
This made everyone burst intoughter.
Even the nurses doing the dressings in the emergency room would have to call Tiantian ¡°Chen Cang¡¯s little wifey¡± instead of her name to get her to obediently show her wound with a smile, just like thedy of the house would.
Two dayster, it was time for Tiantian to be discharged. After Xu Liangpleted the procedures, he was ready to take Tiantian home.
When Tiantian learned her parents were taking her away, she cried her heart out, refusing to be pulled away, and kept saying, ¡°Mommy, mommy, don¡¯t tear us apart¡ I will only marry Uncle Chen Cang.¡±
Her words were heart-wrenching, loaded with deep emotion and affection!
Everyone present didn¡¯t know whether tough or cry.
Xu Liang also gave an embarrassed chuckle and looked at his wife, ¡°Honey, why do I feel like we¡¯ve be the viins from a TV show? Tearing apart true lovers, huh?¡±
Xu Tiantian stopped crying, nodded, and said, ¡°Exactly¡ Daddy, can you please not be a bad guy? Don¡¯t tear us apart¡¡±
However, Xu Tiantian¡¯s resistance was futile, and in the end, she was taken away.
Chen Cang watched the little girl leave with a smile, finding her truly adorable!
At that moment, Qin Yue suddenly popped up from behind, ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Can¡¯t bear to let her go?¡±
Chen Cang instantly smiled, ¡°What¡¯s there to miss?¡±
Qin Yueughed, ¡°What¡¯s there to miss? You say it so easily, but she might just be the only girl who¡¯s ever been deeply affectionate towards you in the 27 years you¡¯ve lived. Aren¡¯t you going to cherish that? All¡ people talk about being naive, but once Tiantian grows up and looks back on this, she¡¯ll surely have regrets!¡±
Chen Cang scoffed, ¡°Right, how about that boyfriend of yours you went to the movies with? How¡¯s that going?¡±
Qin Yue turned to nce at Chen Cang, ¡°None of your business!¡±
After saying that, Qin Yue strode off.
Wang Qian quietly moved closer, letting out a regretful sigh, ¡°Cang Er, your little wifey just left, and you¡¯re already hitting on Qin Yue? That¡¯s heartless, don¡¯t you think? Look at Tiantian, crying her eyes out when leaving, as if it were a life-or-death farewell, such deep and sincere emotions¡ And look at you¡ oh¡ men are all heartbreakers!¡±
After that, Wang Qian shook his head in disappointment and walked away.
Leaving Chen Cang in a state of confusion.

Chapter 175: Chapter 176: That¡¯s right! It¡¯s Chen Cang! (Seeking monthly votes&)
Fang Yonglin¡¯s sessful surgery spread quickly, instantly drawing many visitors.
From the leaders of the health system to the dean of various hospitals, everyone wanted to visit Mr. Fang.
After all, he was a well-known elder in An Yang City with considerable influence in the medical and health system.
Considering this, the hospital sent the elderly man to the special ward on the 19th floor. The specifications of wards here were different from other departments; each room had two beds, one for the patient and the other for the family member, and each room had a private bathroom with a bath; next door was a sizable living room, just like a suite.
Of course, the price was naturally not low!
The special ward was mainly for retired officials and wealthy people, with an independent restaurant, chefs, and gym on the 19th floor, eliminating the need for patients to go downstairs.
Fang Yonglin¡¯s room was naturally one of the best. Although the old man was not the most powerful, here at the Second Provincial Hospital, Fang Yonglin was a symbol.
With the help of students like Qin Xiaoyuan, everyone hired a caretaker for Mr. Fang to assist with his daily activities.
To put it bluntly, Mr. Fang¡¯s remaining years might be spent here.
After all, he was too old and his health was poor; living in a nursing home definitely wasn¡¯t asfortable as living in the hospital. Li Jianwei went back to Mr. Fang¡¯s house and brought back his books, decorating the entire ward just like home.
In these days, Fang Yonglin¡¯s health gradually recovered, and the hospital even dared to allow him to receive visitors.
Ordinary visitors would just sit, leave the items they brought, chat with Mr. Fang for a few sentences, and then leave.
However, many were filled with curiosity about the person who performed Mr. Fang¡¯s surgery. Who exactly operated on Mr. Fang!?
Especially the dean of various hospitals who participated in the consultations those days was even more curious.
After all, they knew a bit about the old man¡¯s condition at the time; the sess rate of the surgery was very low, but now seeing the old man¡¯s condition, how well he recovered, they were deeply shocked.
After visiting the elderly man this time, people like Qian Liang and Liu Siqi did not rush to leave; instead, they sought out Li Jianwei, and everyone sat down to chat.
¡°Director Li, who performed the surgery on Mr. Fang this time? Did you bring in someone from outside?¡± Liu Siqi couldn¡¯t hold back and directly asked.
Li Jianwei was slightly stunned and sighed, ¡°No, where could we invite someone from? Outsiders are even more reluctant to take such a risk. After you left that day, we decided to go ahead with the surgery, gritted our teeth, and let Director Zhang Youfu from surgery take on the operation!¡±
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded slowly. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Qian Liang said, ¡°Director Zhang is quite skilled. At only 45 years old, it seems he will be an excellent leader in hepatobiliary surgery in Dongyang Province in the future!¡±
Qian Liang and Zhang Youfu both specialized in hepatobiliary fields and often interacted andmunicated; they even felt a sense of mutual appreciation for each other.
It was Qian Liang who introduced Zhang Youfu to Dongyang Province¡¯s Hepatobiliary Surgery Association, so the two had always gotten along very well.
Even then, Qian Liang had invited Zhang Youfu to East University¡¯s First Hospital. After his retirement, Zhang Youfu would take over as director, but at that time, Zhang was only forty and went straight to general surgery at the Second Provincial Hospital.
He had made quite a name for himself over the years.
Liu Siqi also nodded slightly but still found it hard to believe: ¡°Did the surgery go smoothly?¡±
Li Jianwei sighed, ¡°How could it! Mr. Fang¡¯s physical condition was very poor, including portal hypertension. Considering the difficulty of wound healing due to diabetes, we decided to go forparoscopic surgery. But as soon as we looked with the scope, we were shocked!¡±
The situation inside the abdomen was too dire; severe intestinal adhesions and the hepatic artery were tightly adherent to the galldder triangle and liver, making the surgery incredibly difficult!
1¡®
At this revtion, Liu Siqi and Qian Liang among others grew curious: ¡°Is there a video of the surgery?¡±
Li Jianwei nodded: ¡°Yes, there is. However, I don¡¯t have a copy. Director Zhang does, let me give him a call to ask.¡±
After receiving the call, Zhang Youfu arrived on the 19th floor with a USB drive in hand, greeted everyone, and plugged in the drive!
Immediately, everyone saw theparoscopic surgery footage.
However, as soon as the footage appeared, everyone was stunned.
The situation could not simply be described as bad. Seeing this, everyone slightly frowned, realizing how fortunate they were that the surgery had not been left to them-otherwise, it would have been challenging to ensure there were noplications during the surgery!
Indeed, it did not take long for everyone to witness a problem that emerged while Zhang Youfu was separating the intestines!
At that moment, everyone couldn¡¯t help but feel anxious!
Danger!
If the intestines were breached at this time, the difficulty and risk of the surgery would increase exponentially.
Difficult!
Just then, everyone suddenly noticed that someone had taken over the surgery!
The intestinal suturing began!
Moreover, the suturing was very tight, delicate, and smooth. The fundamental skills ofparoscopic intestinal suturing were truly impressive, prompting everyone present to marvel.
However, their admiration might have been premature, because the images that followed were even more enlightening!
As seconds ticked by, not a soul disrupted the silence; they all watched the surgery video quietly.
Zhang Youfu was no exception. He had cut out the middle part, waiting for Chen Cang, making the surgery seem very smooth. Zhang Youfu had watched it several times already, yet was surprised every time!
Especially during the separation of the hepatic artery, Chen Gang¡¯s decisive action to cut off the ovepping arterial sutures dazzled everyone!
¡°Beautiful!¡±
¡°Genius!¡±
¡°Damn!¡±
With each exmation, Zhang Youfu smiled. It seemed he was not the only one surprised.
It had to be said, Chen Gang¡¯s idea at that time was nothing short of genius.
Such a thought, who coulde up with it?
Even if someone did think of it, how many could achieve it!
That rapid, precise suturing of the hepatic artery under theparoscope was simply ssic!
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
Once the surgery video ended, everyone remained silent for a long time, deeply impressed.
At this point, Qian Liang suddenly asked, ¡°Who performed this surgery? It was incredible! Especially that approach to separating the hepatic artery, what a genius idea. I never would have thought of it!¡±
Zhang Youfu smiled, ¡°Director Qian, you know him.¡±
Qian Liang immediately frowned, ¡°I know him? Who is it? All the notable names in Dongyang Province¡¯s general surgery field are already here¡ Could it be Director Li Baoshan?¡±
Zhang Youfu shook his head, ¡°Director Li had something to attend to that day.
The surgery was performed by Chen Cang!¡±
Qian Liang was visibly shaken.
¡°Chen Cang?¡±
Zhang Youfu nodded, ¡°Yes, it was Chen Cang!¡±
PS: To those who said I left the previous chapter iplete, touch your heart. Doesn¡¯t it hurt?
Chapter 176: 177: Im at work... Isnt it inconvenient? (Seeking monthly pass)
The moment Chen Gang¡¯s name was mentioned, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became eerily tense!
Those few who knew Chen Cang held their breaths and exchanged nces!
Their eyes were full of solemnity.
Because if this liver artery separation technique were conceived by some senior doctor or chief physician, they might have epted it, but with Chen Cang¡ he was just too young!
So young that it made everyone feel a certain pressure!
A pressure akin to the new waves of the Yangtze River pushing the old ones ahead, and the pupil surpassing the master.
Liu Siqi and Qian Liang had been Chen Gang¡¯s examiners during his practical exam, where he had performed an appendectomy. Although he had been very impressive, an appendectomy was, after all, just that, an appendectomy. No matter how praiseworthy, it could only show that you had a good surgical talent and aptitude.
But now it waspletely different.
The surgery shown in the video was not something that could be sessful just by talent and luck alone.
Otherwise, people wouldn¡¯t hesitate to perform it.
This was strength!
And not just any strength, but a solid one!
Though it is said that one should regard an acquaintance in a new light after three days¡¯ separation, it shouldn¡¯t result in looking through an eight-fold magnifying ss, should it?
The disparity was just too great¡
Most of those around were not familiar with Chen Cang, and only a few knew of him.
¡°Who is Chen Cang?¡±
¡°I don¡¯t know him!¡±
¡°I¡¯ve never heard of him either!¡±
¡°Director Zhang, Chen Cang¡ who is he? Which hospital is he from?¡±
Finally, someone couldn¡¯t help but ask!
Zhang Youfu smiled, ¡°He is a young doctor at our hospital.¡±
Hearing this, some people snickered. You, Zhang Youfu, could have just not mentioned it at all, calling him a ¡®young doctor¡¯, yet his surgery is even better than yours!
After watching the surgical video, the chiefs of surgery were left wanting more and wished they could return to their hospitals to practice, as their hands were itching to do so.
These chiefs rarely had an opportunity toe together, and with the business of their hospitals waiting, they didn¡¯t stay long and soon were departing one after another.
However, a few people stayed behind, namely those familiar with Chen Cang,
Qian Liang and Liu Siqi.
Unable to hold back, Qian Liang asked, ¡°Director Zhang, this surgery¡ it was really performed by Chen Cang?¡±
Zhang Youfu nodded earnestly, still somewhat shaken as he recalled the surgery, ¡°Yes! To tell the truth, at that moment when I was delicately separating the intestines and encountered an adhesion problem, it became impossible to proceed. We then contacted Director Li Baoshan, but he wouldn¡¯t be able to return in time. However, he told us we could call Chen Cang!
¡°After Chen Cang arrived, I was already exhausted from handling the intestines to prevent leakage, my hands were even trembling. If it wasn¡¯t for Chen Cang that day¡ it would have likely been more bad luck than good. I still wake up from nightmares about it!¡±
After Zhang Youfu finished speaking, he couldn¡¯t help but sigh deeply.
Seeing his reaction, everyone more or less believed him; Zhang Youfu had no reason to joke about such a matter.
After a brief chat about the details of the surgery, they were ready to leave. Just as they were departing, Liu Siqi suddenly turned around, ¡°Director Zhang, is it possible to get a copy of this surgical video?¡±
Zhang Youfu apologized with a smile, ¡°Not at the moment. 1 will send a copy to you, Director Liu, after some time.¡±
Liu Siqi nodded. These surgical videos were valuable educational resources, and great ones could even be submitted for awards, so he didn¡¯t insist further.
In the afternoon, Qin Xiaoyuan received a call in his office from Guan Wei, the director of the Graduate Office at Dongyang Medical University.
¡°Director Qin, hello, I¡¯m Guan Wei.¡±
Qin Xiaoyuan smiled, ¡°Hello, Director Guan.¡±
Guan Wei got straight to the point, ¡°It¡¯s like this, after much effort in application, the quota for graduate students has been approved.¡±
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoyuan¡¯s eyes immediately lit up!
What great news this was.
¡°Oh? That¡ won¡¯t cause any problems? They can keep up with the 19th ss of graduate students, right?¡±
Guan Wei smiled, ¡°No problem. Our medical field is quite special because of the higher number of students with equivalent degrees and those who follow the master-apprentice tradition. In recent years, the state has also been encouraging the cultivation of special talents, so it was approved. You should get Chen Cang toe over soon, get everything that needs to be prepared ready, and after hees I will exin everything in detail.¡±
When Qin Xiaoyuan heard the news, he immediately became very happy.
To tell the truth, after making that bold promise to Chen Cang, Qin Xiaoyuan visited Dongyang Medical University only to find out that after thepletion of this year¡¯s interviews, all sorts of lists had been published and information had been entered into their system.
Qin Xiaoyuan was thinking of taking the route of rmended exemption for Chen Cang, which would be more convenient, but it turned out to be toote. Afterwards, Qin Xiaoyuan went through a lot of trouble finding various people, and after a lot of back and forth, today there was finally a result.
With this thought, Qin Xiaoyuan couldn¡¯t help feeling ecstatic.
¡°Then for Chen Gang¡¯s matter¡ I¡¯m really grateful to Director Guan, and you should take the opportunity to visit the Provincial Second Hospital sometime,¡± Qin Xiaoyuan said.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiaoyuan suddenly felt overjoyed.
Thinking over and over, he decided to call Chen Cang, saying triumphantly, ¡°Chen Cang,e to my office.¡±n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Cang was stunned, ¡°Director Qin¡ I¡ I¡¯m at work, isn¡¯t it not very good to leave my post during working hours? Is this¡ appropriate? What if, and I mean if, someone from the medical affairs department takes notice, wouldn¡¯t that be bad? I¡¯ve just been disciplined¡ How about Ie up after work, how about that?¡±
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoyuan felt as if he was getting pped in slow motion on both cheeks, reyed on the right and then the left¡
This kid is definitely trying to annoy me.
Was it just because I didn¡¯t pay attention to his matter a few days ago?
Why are you so petty, man?
Thinking this, Qin Xiaoyuan couldn¡¯t help getting angry, ¡°Fine, you don¡¯t have toe up, but if you miss the start of the new graduate students this year, I won¡¯t be responsible.¡±
After finishing, Qin Xiaoyuan hung up the phone, and thinking of Chen Cang s insidious tone just now, he couldn¡¯t help being irked.
This kid, seriously¡ immature!
Exactly!
Completely immature.
When Chen Cang heard about the graduate program starting, he was instantly dumbstruck. Damn, Director Qin is so capable, did he really manage it for me?
With this in mind, Chen Cang made some quick arrangements and hurriedly dashed towards the administrative building.
It was only when he arrived downstairs that he realized he didn¡¯t know where the director¡¯s office was¡
I¡¯ll go up and ask!
However, once Chen Cang reached the 20th floor, he encountered a serious problem: the corridors had electronic locks, and only with a card could one get in, which rendered him helpless at that moment.
Knock on the door?
Don¡¯t worry, no one¡¯s going to pay attention to you.
Ah, truly a case of ¡¯Behind vermilion gates, meat and wine go to waste¡¯: they have electronic locks on the doors of the administrative building; the staff inside carry keys and can enter, while outsiders or typical troublemakers can¡¯t get in. Meanwhile, emergency is where my home¡¯s big door¡¯s always open.
The life and health of administrative workers are too important, it seems¡ as for us in emergency¡
Thinking this, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help muttering a fewints under his breath.
Since Chen Cang couldn¡¯t get in and no one came to open the door for him, he could only call Qin Xiaoyuan, ¡°Director Qin, I¡¯m at the door¡ but I can¡¯t get in. ps: Today I came backte, so 1 didn¡¯t post, apologies for thete update..
Chapter 177: 178: Liver Transplant (Please Subscribe)
After walking out of the dean¡¯s office, Chen Cang was clearly feeling quite pleased with himself¡ªhe was about to enroll in graduate studies!
The thought made Chen Cang swell with excitement and exhration.
In fact, attending graduate school wouldn¡¯t interfere with Chen Cang¡¯s work at all.
Medical graduate students were mainly divided into professional master¡¯s and academic master¡¯s programs (research-based), with professional master¡¯s students spending almost all their time in clinics during their studies, in ordance with the national standardized training programs and aiming for an integrated certification upon graduation (graduate diploma, master¡¯s degree certificate, medical practitioner license, standardized training certificate).
Only by obtaining these four credentials would it be rtively easier for you to find a job.
This year, the Second Provincial Hospital also became a national standardized training hospital, so Chen Cang couldpletely carry on working in the department under the banner of standardized training.
Qin Yue had done the same, but¡ Qin Yue¡¯s life was tough; at the time of her studies, the professional master¡¯s standardized training certificate hadn¡¯t been widely implemented, so after arriving at the Second Provincial Hospital, she had no choice but to register for the standardized training quota at the East University First Hospital to work there, which meant less money from the hospital, as if she were on standardized training.
After all, nowadays, without a standardized training certificate, you simply couldn¡¯t advance to a mid-level professional title.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Chen Cang suddenly realized a problem: If he started graduate studies, wouldn¡¯t the hospital withhold his bonus?
That¡¯s what happened to Qin Yue!
With this in mind, Chen Cang hastily turned back, giving a sheepish smile, ¡°Director Qin, there¡¯s something else I want to ask.¡±
Qin Xiaoyuan put down his pen and looked at Chen Cang, ¡°Hmm, what is it?¡±
Chen Cang, ¡°If I start graduate school, will my sry and bonuses be withheld?¡±
Qin Xiaoyuan sighed, looking at Chen Cang. He¡¯d bet that if he said it would be withheld, Chen Cang would surely decide not to proceed with school!
The hard-earned enrollment slot would go to waste!
Besides, Chen Cang had already secured a post at the Second Provincial Hospital; graduate school was just icing on the cake. Sometimes, education truly served just as a door opener.
Thinking this, Qin Xiaoyuan helplessly said, ¡°No, your bonuses won¡¯t be withheld. Just carry on with your normal work; I¡¯ve already talked to the school about your situation. You just need toplete the required credits, don¡¯t worry about anything else. However, try to attend sses whenever you can, especially Medical Statistics and Evidence-Based Medicine¡ªas they will be really helpful for your future development.¡±
Upon hearing that his money wouldn¡¯t be withheld, Chen Cang instantly became happy, ¡°Thank you, Director.¡±
One area where Chen Cang differed from Qin Yue was that Chen Cang¡¯s standardized training hospital was at the Second Provincial Hospital; he did not need to shuttle back and forth to other hospitals, which spared him a lot of trouble.
When Chen Cang returned to his department, Qin Yue came scampering over excitedly, ¡°Chen Cang, treat me to a meal!¡±
Without even looking up, Chen Cang retorted, ¡°Dream on.¡±
Unfazed, Qin Yue¡¯s eyes twinkled yfully, ¡°Are you sure? I¡¯ll give you one more chance! Just one, okay?¡±
Chen Cang ignored Qin Yue and turned to Wang Yong, ¡°What should we have for lunch?¡±
While writing up medical records, Wang Yong didn¡¯t even lift his head, ¡°As long as you¡¯re buying, anything works for me.¡±
Chen Cang,
Suddenly, Chen Cang felt that eating alone was the most cost-effective option; he could just have a set meal in the cafeteria, ten yuan for one meat and two veg dishes with two liang of rice, a delightfully frugal choice. Remembering how the cafeteriady always scooped him an extra helping of meat, Chen Cang suddenly felt that happiness could be so simple.
Qin Yue let out a sigh, ¡°Ah¡ it looks like I need to call the journal office and tell them 1 need to change the corresponding author!¡±
Chen Cang quickly turned around, ¡°What did you say? The eptance notice has arrived? That was quick, wasn¡¯t it supposed to take at least half a month?¡±
Qin Yue groaned and slumped in her chair, ¡°Ah, all thete nights and overtime recently have left me feelingpletely drained.¡±
Chen Cang immediately became as obsequious as a flower, smiling like a fawning dog, ¡°Sis Qin, what would you like to eat? Let¡¯s go get something nice!¡±
Qin Yue pretended not to hear, ¡°Ah¡ 1 heard there¡¯s a new Haido opened on Tian Street, it shouldn¡¯t be too crowded at noon, right?¡±
Upon hearing there was a feast to be had, Wang Yong couldn¡¯t care less about writing medical records, ¡°Hmm, 1 heard it just opened.¡±
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but twitch his mouth, ¡°Eat! It¡¯s just Haido, let¡¯s go eat!¡±
Seeing this, Wang Qian chimed in gloomily, ¡°Qin Yue, should I carry your bag for you?¡±
Qin Yue nodded, ¡°That would be great, Qian¡¯er bro is so considerate!¡±
Chen Cang¡¯s eye twitched, ¡°Eat! Eat! Eat! Just hurry up and show me the eptance notice.¡±
The paper Chen Cang had been obsessing over was finallying out, and this matter was linked to the task of apprenticing under Qian Liang!
In fact, after returning, Chen Cang had worked hard on researching and had even tried sending out a few papers, ranging from high-impact factor journals to core periodicals and then to general publications. And believe it or not, he actually received a few eptance notices.
Getting the notices, Chen Cang was somewhat excited, after all, it was his academic achievements being recognized, how could he not be thrilled?
But¡ out of curiosity, Chen Cang asked around in his friend group and learned that those papers could be published simply by paying, with no technical content whatsoever.
Thinking of this, Chen Cang simply decided not to waste money anymore. A few thousand bucks for a paper, and maybe showing it to Qian Liang would only result in a couple of sarcastic remarks.
Since then, Chen Cang decided to focus on properly researching how to write papers before submitting them.
Chen Cang¡¯s college mates had finished their graduate studies, so they published papers more often and understood more about the process.
At this point, Qin Yue picked up her phone and sent out the eptance notice to several people.
Honestly, Qin Yue had never expected that her teacher even knew people from ¡°Liver Transntation¡± and could speed up the peer-review process.
Usually, for this kind of international core journal, the review process requires a long queue and involves several stages like the first and second review, and just making revisions can take a month or two.
However, after Qin Yue submitted her paper, she made a call to her teacher Xu Mo, and in no time, she received the eptance notice, which was something she could have never anticipated!
When Chen Cang saw the words ¡°liver transpl¡±, he was momentarily taken aback.
Chen Cang made Qin Yueugh with a single remark, ¡°¡®Liver Transntation¡¯? Why not publish in ¡®The Lancet¡¯? Or¡ ¡®Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery¡¯ could work too?¡±
Wang Qian was torn betweenughter and dismay, ¡°Cang Er, do you think ¡®The Lancet¡¯ is owned by your family? To publish just like that? In our Dongyang Province, those who¡¯ve published in ¡®The Lancet¡¯ probably don¡¯t even add up to three people. Are you joking?¡±
¡°Besides, do you even know what level of journal ¡®Liver Transntation¡¯ is? Topare it with ¡®Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery¡¯?¡±
¡°That journal, ¡®Liver Transntation,¡¯ has an impact factor close to six or seven. At its peak, ¡®Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery¡¯ probably only scores around one, the gap between them isn¡¯t small at all.¡±
¡°So, by bringing this paper published in ¡®Liver Transntation¡¯ to my PhD application, if my scores pass, there¡¯s less than a 10% chance of getting rejected. ¡®Liver Transntation¡¯ has absolute clout in the field of hepatobiliary surgery!¡±
Chen Cang didn¡¯t understand.
Wang Yong was even more befuddled, ¡°Is my name as the second author¡ worth something?¡±
Wang Qian nodded, ¡°Basically, with that, there shouldn¡¯t be any issue for you to get promoted to associate senior level!¡±
This left Wang Yong and Chen Cang looking at each other in astonishment, ¡°It¡¯s that amazing?¡±
Wang Qian nodded enviously, ¡°What else?¡±
Wang Qian was not joking. Generally speaking, for ordinary journals, even the core ones in China like Peking University core or science and technology core¡ No matter if it¡¯s dual core or triple core, only the first author and corresponding author carry weight. However, high-impact factor articles include the second author due to the high difficulty of research and the participation of more people.
Chapter 178: 179:1 Suspect You Are Bullying Me for Being Uneducated (Vote for Monthly Ticket)
Wang Qian stared at Qin Yue as if he were looking at a young cow, ¡°Qin Yue? Howe 1 never noticed how awesome you are before?¡±
Qin Yue felt somewhat embarrassed by thepliment, ¡°Actually¡ my contribution to the paper wasn¡¯t that significant. My teacher revised a ton for me, plus Professor Wu did the trantion. Even getting the paper published was a favor my teacher called in!¡±
¡°So! Chen Cang, wouldn¡¯t it weigh on your conscience if you didn¡¯t treat us to a meal?¡±
Chen Cang searched on his phone for a long time but couldn¡¯t find anything about ¡°Liver Transnt¡± on Baidu everything was about how much a liver transnt cost, whether the surgery was difficult, and whether one could eat after it¡
Chen Cang looked at Qin Yue and Wang Qian with suspicion, ¡°I¡¯m starting to suspect you two are conniving to dupe me, a man without much culture.¡±
Wang Yong nodded, ¡°I think so too¡¡±
Aftering out from Haido, Chen Cang looked grievously at Qin Yue, ¡°Don¡¯t you look at the price when you order?¡±
Qin Yue patted her round belly, ¡°Of course I do, but I don¡¯t when you are the one treating.¡±
Chen Cang sighed, ¡°You should change your name. What Qin Yue? More like ¡®Beast¡¯!¡±
Wang Qianughed, ¡°Cang Er, you¡¯re now the richest among the four of us. We¡¯re still scraping by on our sries, and here you are throwing knives for a living. If you don¡¯t rob the rich to help the poor, we¡¯d feel too guilty!¡±
Wang Yong remained silent,tely ying the supporter role had been sofortable. Chen Cang developed so well, and thanks to that, his own mix of support items had transformed from Doran¡¯s into Infinity Edge. Could a Bloodthirster be far off?
That afternoon, Chen Cang didn¡¯t go to the hospital but went home to prepare his materials and headed straight to Dongyang Medical University. As Chen Cang¡¯s alma mater, he was very familiar with the ce.
It had been three years since hisst visit, but it seemed unchanged.
Entering the campus and seeing the scattered students on the way, Chen Cang suddenly felt as if he had aged a lot, as if he no longer fit in here. His perspective of these students was like looking at a bunch of kids. It had been three years since he¡¯d graduated¡
College lifested five years, not a day more, not a day less.
From immaturity to greenness, from confusion to even greater confusion.
In college, Chen Cang learned a lot, but at graduation, he realized he had lost even more.
As he watched students and juniors walking across campus on their way to afternoon sses, Chen Cang felt an intense wave of nostalgia.
This is his alma mater, the ce that holds five years of memories.
Although it couldn¡¯t be considered a prestigious institute with many honors, a son never despises his mother¡¯s looks, a dog never shuns a poor family.
Walking through the crowds, Chen Cang soon arrived at the office of the director of the graduate department in the administrative building.
After knocking on the door.
¡°Come in!¡±
The voice was young and familiar, not sounding over forty. Pushing the door open, Chen Cang saw a familiar face sitting there.
¡°Mr. Guan???¡± Chen Cang said in surprise!
Guan Weiughed heartily, ¡°Surprised?¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°Mr. Guan¡ Damn, you made it big, huh? You¡¯re the director of the graduate department now?¡±n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Guan Wei nodded and gestured for Chen Cang to sit down, ¡°Have a seat, haha. When Dean Qin gave me your information the other day, 1 was taken aback for a moment, thinking it was someone with the same name. 1 didn¡¯t expect it to actually be you!¡±
Chen Cang had a good rtionship with Guan Wei. Guan Wei was both an instructor and also handled the work of the Youth League Committee for the clinical department, while Chen Cang was the ss monitor and also the leader of the ss¡¯s Youth League.
The two of them had plenty of interaction, and Chen Cang¡¯s drinking habits were also influenced by Guan Wei¡¯s mentorship.
Guan Wei was modest and down-to-earth, often mingling with the students, casually sitting down with them for conversations, meals, and drinks.
Chen Cang didn¡¯t expect that in just three years of absence, Guan Wei would have be the director of the graduate department.
Thinking about this, Chen Cangughed and said, ¡°Mr. Guan, congrattions on the promotion. Now I have to bow down to you again. You must take good care of me.¡±
Guan Weiughed and pointed at Chen Cang, yfully scolding, ¡°You kid, when 1 rmended you for direct admission to graduate school, you didn¡¯t take it, and now look at you.¡±
Chen Cang alsoughed, ¡°Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures! At that time, my financial situation didn¡¯t allow it, and you know about my family¡¯s circumstances.¡±
Guan Wei nodded, ¡°Alright, let¡¯s get the formalities done first. We¡¯ll meet up tonight, the usual ce. This time, you¡¯re treating.¡±
Chen Cangughed heartily, ¡°No problem, 1¡¯11 make sure everyone¡¯s well-fed!¡±
Chen Cang was inherently honest and straightforward, neither arrogant nor impetuous, and worked efficiently, which made him quite likable over time.
In less than an hour, Guan Wei personally helped Chen Cangplete the data entry.
¡°I always knew it, Chen, you can shine anywhere if you put in the effort. Look how well you¡¯re doing now, Dean Qin took the initiative to pull strings for you. Not just anyone can do that. It¡¯s not like before; direct graduate admissions are bing increasingly rare. I reckon Dean Qin must have spent quite an effort,¡± Guan Wei said with a smile.
Chen Cang nodded. Although he didn¡¯t know why Qin Xiaoyuan had taken the initiative to promise him a grad school opportunity, he would remember this favor in his heart regardless.
There are no uncaused goods and bads; rtionships between people are mutual.
Guan Wei suddenly smiled, ¡°You and Geng Yan are getting married soon, no?¡± Chen Cang was taken aback and then smiled, ¡°We broke up after graduation.¡± Guan Wei was momentarily dumbfounded, ¡°Broke up? Oh¡ you did?¡± ¡°It¡¯smon, breakup seasones with graduation. It happened, now it¡¯s over. You¡¯re doing well now, with a regr position at the provincial hospital. How about I set you up with someone? Our university hired a bunch of young peoplest year; there are a few nice girls among them, even PhDs. Pairing up with a university lecturer might be more rxed. Otherwise, if both spouses are in clinical practice, no one takes care of the home.¡±
When Chen Cang heard this, he was, to be honest, somewhat tempted.
Guan Wei made sense. If both were clinical doctors, who would take care of the kids in the future?
It seemed somewhat irresponsible for the children, whereas being a university lecturer seemed not bad at all prestigious work, two holidays, a rxed job, and one would need a PhD to be a university teacher, right? The children¡¯s education would surely be well provided for.
Chen Cangughed at the thought, ¡°I¡¯m just a lowly bachelor¡¯s degree holder; would they even consider me?¡±
Guan Wei shook his head, ¡°I¡¯ve got just a bachelor¡¯s degree too, and isn¡¯t my wife a PhD? It doesn¡¯t matter for men whether you do a PhD or not, what counts is ability.¡±
¡°How about you look among your university ssmates? Many from your ss are now graduate students at our university. They must have graduated by now, too. 1 wonder how they¡¯re doing in their job search?¡±
¡°Nowadays, jobs are hard toe by; there are tons of grad students whose aspirations exceed their abilities. They can¡¯t get into good hospitals, and they don¡¯t want to go to ordinary ones. But look at you, kid, you didn¡¯t go to grad school, but you¡¯ve settled your job cement. In hindsight, you¡¯re one of the few who¡¯ve actually done well.¡±
Chen Cang sighed. It was all¡ coincidences.
That evening, he had a few beers with Guan Wei. By the time he got home, it was past ten o¡¯clock. After washing up, hey in bed and soon fell into a slumber.
In his dreams, he saw many things.
There were those humble dreams tucked away under his pillow that had gradually grown moldy over the years.
His dreams were filled with people he once yearned for but never belonged to him.
Those who leave me cannot be retained!
Those who disturb my peace bring much vexation on this day!
A strong breeze and towering waves wille in time; 1 shall hang my sails and cross the vast seas!
ps: Darn author, cutting the story short again. See that? Shredded my ticket¡ so frustrating¡
ps: I¡¯ve cursed the author on everyone¡¯s behalf, that¡¯s fair of me, right¡ When convenient, give Chen Cang and Qin Yue some thumbs up under the ¡ª Character Area. I¡¯ve heard they get special birthday covers and rmendations for having more likes. Please support them; I¡¯ve already made Qin Yue and Chen Cang bow and thank everyone¡.

Chapter 179: Chapter 180:1 Have No Money (Vote for Monthly Pass)
Chen Cang really didn¡¯t want to get out of bed, who knows why Qin Yue would call him at three in the morning.
But it definitely wasn¡¯t anything good!
Still, thinking of the paper on ¡°Liver Transntation,¡± Chen Cang decided to get up and check it out.
It was a bit chilly at night in a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and when he arrived at the hospital, Chen Cang saw Qin Yue already waiting for him at the entrance.
¡°Chen Cang,e here quickly!¡± Qin Yue whispered urgently.
Chen Cang curiously jogged over, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±
Qin Yue pointed to the room, ¡°We¡¯ve got a nutcase.¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, bewildered for a few seconds, then said earnestly, ¡°A nutcase arrives, and they call me in the middle of the night¡ªwhat¡¯s the direct connection here?¡±
¡°Shouldn¡¯t you be calling psychiatry for a consult?¡±
Qin Yue pouted, ¡°Psychiatry came down for a consult, but they said the patient doesn¡¯t seem to have a psychiatric disorder, they won¡¯t admit him.¡±
Chen Cang frowned, ¡°Let¡¯s go, I¡¯m here anyway, let¡¯s go in and see what¡¯s the matter.¡±
Qin Yue nodded, ¡°Be careful, I have a feeling the patient is kind of off.¡±
Chen Cang turned around, feeling Qin Yue¡¯s fear, involuntarily secreting an extra milliliter of adrenaline, seemingly gaining bravery +1? Courage +1? Manliness +1?
Upon entering the emergency hall, Chen Cang saw a man with a limp wandering around, touching here and there with a careful gait, dressed in an old-fashioned red vest and ck cloth shoes that were torn in several ces, looking like a vagrant.
The man seemed to be fascinated by everything, touching things gingerly, and when he saw that his shoes dirtied the floor, he quickly took them off and bent down to clean it with his clothing.
Chen Cang nced at Qin Yue.
Could it really be a mental illness?
The nurses at the nursing station had long since disappeared, and at that moment, the man heard someone behind him.
He turned around abruptly!
Chen Cang was taken aback!
Holy crap?
He saw that the man had a long piece of iron wire pierced through his chest!
This truly startled Chen Cang, no wonder Qin Yue called him.
But then again¡
Qin Yue called him¡ªwhom could he call in turn¡
The man wasn¡¯t old, Chen Cang estimated he was only in his thirties, bald.
Chen Cang cautiously asked, ¡°Hello, are you here to see the doctor?¡±
Upon hearing Chen Cang¡¯s words, the man appeared indifferent but kept his eyes fixed on Qin Yue, staring intensely and unsettling her.
At this moment, the man suddenly smiled, ¡°Doctor, you¡¯re very good-looking¡¡±
Qin Yue, instead of being ttered, felt even more anxious and awkwardly chuckled, ¡°You¡¯re good-looking too, you¡¯re good-looking too¡¡±
Hearing Qin Yue¡¯s response, the man bashfully lowered his head, ¡°I used to be quite handsome when I was young¡¡±
Only then did Chen Cang notice that Qin Yue was wearing a white coat, which was why the patient paid no attention to him.
He quickly got up, returned to the office, grabbed the white coat hanging on the chair, put it on, and walked out.
Suddenly, the man turned around, and the piece of steel wire nearly swiped across Chen Cang¡¯s face, forcing him to step back immediately!
Chen Cang, ¡°I¡¯m a doctor, is there anything I can help you with?¡±
The man nodded, ¡°I¡ I came to get this looked at!¡±
After saying that, he added, ¡°But I have no money.¡±
Seeing that the man¡¯s consciousness was still fairly clear, Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Do you have an ID? Let¡¯s get you registered. It¡¯s for free.¡±
The man shook his head, ¡°No, I don¡¯t have an ID card.¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, ¡°No money is not a problem, just give me your ID card first, all these require an ID card, we can help you with the deferred payment first.¡±
Upon hearing that he could defer payment, the man said, ¡°Even if you arrange for a deferred payment, I still can¡¯t pay it back, I don¡¯t have any money.¡±
At that moment, nurse Chang Lina and a young intern nurse just came out, walked up to Chen Cang, and whispered, ¡°Doctor Chen, he has been saying he has no money since earlier.¡±n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Chen Cangforted, ¡°It¡¯s okay, follow me to the treatment room, 1¡¯11 help you see if there¡¯s anything wrong.¡±
The man just stood there, ¡°But I don¡¯t have any money.¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°I¡¯ll just take a look, it¡¯s free, let¡¯s see what we can do. How dangerous is this for you?¡±
After speaking, Chen Cang took the man by the arm and walked towards the treatment room.
Chang Lina and the few junior nurses followed curiously. Chen Cang red at them, and they reluctantly left.
Meanwhile, Qin Yue followed Chen Cang into the treatment room and closed the door.
At this time, Qin Yue also noticed that the man didn¡¯t seem to be mentally ill, ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡±
The man hesitated for a moment, ¡°I¡¯ve forgotten.¡±
Qin Yue:¡
Chen Cang guessed that the man didn¡¯t want to say. Since he came in, he kept emphasizing that he had no money. Whatever was asked of him, he wouldn¡¯t say.
All he would say was, ¡°1 have no money.¡±
Suddenly, an idea struck Chen Cang, and he clicked on the man.
[Zhu Yongwang, sunk in despair, may trigger a task by resolving his heart knot.]
Worried about one issue, Chen Cang looked at the steel wire through the left side of the chest. Had it not pierced the heart?
The location was very close to the pulmonary artery, could it have already prated?
Unable to restrain himself, Chen Cang asked, ¡°How did this steel wire get in? What reactions did you have after it was stabbed in?¡±
The man¡¯s smile was bitter, ¡°I stabbed it in myself, leftover steel wire from fixing the house. It used to be this long, but after stabbing it in, I couldn¡¯t walk, so 1 broke it off!¡±
As he spoke, the man used his hands to demonstrate the length of the wire,ughing hopelessly.
Upon hearing that, Qin Yue¡¯splexion changed abruptly, and she couldn¡¯t help saying, ¡°Are you crazy? Why would you do that? Aren¡¯t you afraid of dying?¡±
The man sighed deeply, ¡°I wanted to die, but it didn¡¯t work¡¡±
That single sentence left Chen Cang and Qin Yue at a loss for words.
Chen Cang took the scissors, ¡°I¡¯ll cut open your clothes to check your wound.¡±
The man hesitated for a moment, ¡°This is the only piece of clothing I have.¡±
Chen Cang, ¡°I¡¯ll lend you one, mine.¡±
Chen Cang grabbed the scissors and cut open the red short-sleeved shirt, only to find that the steel wire had already rotted into the skin causing severe pus formation around the area. Even Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but frown.
How painful that must be!
Qin Yue was even more shocked. The summer weather being already hot, such wounds easily fester and get infected, but no! The man was already infected!
Qin Yue felt her heart tremble. Despite being boisterous and having seen many strange clinical diseases, she couldn¡¯t help but shiver.
With a trembling voice, Qin Yue asked, ¡°Does it¡ does it not hurt?¡±
The man gave a wry smile, ¡°It¡¯s bearable, not as painful as having cancer.¡±
Upon hearing this, Qin Yue and Chen Cang exchanged a nce, ¡°How do you know you have cancer?¡±
The man smiled painfully, ¡°1 was diagnosed back in my hometown hospital. They told me I wouldn¡¯t live past half a year, it has already metastasized to my bones, here on my leg.¡±
As he spoke, the man pointed to what Chen Cang had thought was a limp on his right leg..

Chapter 180: Chapter 181: Zhu Yongwang¡¯s Heartfelt Wish Mission (Requesting Monthly Votes)
Chen Cang said, ¡°Go have the nurse check his temperature and blood pressure.
Right, ask Lina to bring over the ECG machine, get ready to do an electrocardiogram.¡±
Qin Yue stood up and walked toward the outside.
Chen Cang closed the door, turned around, and stared at the man, ¡°Were you trying to kill yourself?¡±
The man was startled, then chuckled, ¡°Yeah, what¡¯s the point of living? ¡°My wife sold everything we had to pay for my medical treatment, 1 might as well be dead than alive.¡±
Chen Cang: ¡°Do you have kids?¡±
The mention of kids made the man sigh, ¡°1 have three kids. The eldest is a girl in third grade, the second is also a girl, six years old and not in school yet, and the youngest is a four-year-old boy. They are good kids, but their father is worthless. To pay for my medical expenses, they¡¯ve never worn new clothes since they were little. If I continue to spend money on treatment, the kids won¡¯t just be kept from school, they¡¯ll starve to death.
¡°So 1 found a piece of wire at home and walked a long distance before stabbing
it into my heart.¡±
Chen Cang nced at the man, ¡°That¡¯s not where the heart is¡¡±
The man sighed, ¡°Everything they show on TV is a lie.¡±
Chen Cang:¡
Suddenly, he didn¡¯t know what to say, whether he shouldment the misleading nature of television dramas or be relieved that the misinformation had proven fortunate.
It felt like someone who had tried tomit suicide with fake pesticide and failed.
The man continued, ¡°I took a train from Lvliang to the capital to see Tiananmen Square. It¡¯s nice, the capital is so beautiful and magnificent. Then I took a train to¡ Eventually, I arrived at Anyang.¡±
¡°I realized¡ it¡¯s good to be alive¡ I don¡¯t want to die anymore, can you save me?¡±
¡°Also, can you help me pull this wire out? 1 can¡¯t stand the difort; my chest has felt terribly constricted these past few days.¡±
¡°I have no money¡ but I also don¡¯t want to die now, doctor, can you please save me?¡±
[Ding! A mission has been triggered: Zhu Yongwang¡¯s Wish. Fulfill Zhu Yongwang¡¯s wish to gain +5 skill points, +1 special lucky bag, and +1 clinical level.]
Chen Cang took a deep breath, the task rewards were quite substantial.
Chen Cang: ¡°How were you able to get on a train?¡±
¡°1 said I was going to get medical treatment, the conductor was afraid I¡¯d die on the train, so they arranged a sleeper berth for me. I told them I had no money, and they bought the ticket for me for free.¡±
By this time, Qin Yue had returned with Chang Lina and several others. Chang Lina: ¡°Doctor Chen, the temperature is 38.8 degrees Celsius, blood pressure is i3O/7ommHg.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, this was probably a fever caused by an infection from the wound.
¡°Get an ECG done, I want to see the heart¡¯s condition.¡±
Chang Lina nodded and looked at the man cautiously, ¡°Lie down on the bed, I ll do an ECG for you.¡±
The man said embarrassedly, ¡°I¡¯m dirty, 1¡¯11 soil the bed.¡±
Lina softened, ¡°No worries at all, we¡¯re sending the sheets for washing tomorrow anyway. It¡¯s all good.¡±
After the many down, the wire jiggled mischievously, startling Chang Lina. But during the ECG, Chang Lina had some trouble, ¡°Doctor Chen, where should I ce the V2 lead?¡±
The wire was exactly where the V2 electrode should be.
Chen Cang: ¡°Just ce it beside, it won¡¯t affect.¡±
The ECG results came out quickly.
Normal sinus rhythm, rightward axis deviation, no major problems.
Chen Cang stood up, took off his own short-sleeve shirt, and handed it to the man, ¡°Put on a shirt,e on, I¡¯ll take you to get an X-ray to see what¡¯s going on with the wire.¡±
The man shook his head, ¡°I have no money.¡±
Chen Cang: ¡°I¡¯ll pay for you.¡±n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The statement stunned those around.
Had Chen Cang lost his mind?
The man¡¯s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he quickly stood up: ¡°Okay.¡± The night shift in the radiology department saw that someone hade from the emergency room and hurried out, seeing Chen Cang leading a patient over.
¡°Dr. Chen?¡± Pang Xin and Chen Cang had joined the hospital in the same year and had undergone orientation training together. They got along quite well.
Chen Cang said, ¡°We¡¯ve got a special patient, no money for treatment, attempted suicide but didn¡¯t want to die afterward, and now there¡¯s a steel wire sticking out of his chest. Help me see what¡¯s going on.¡±
Pang Xin nodded: ¡°Should I develop the X-ray?¡±
Chen Cang hesitated for a moment: ¡°Go ahead, I¡¯ll handle the payment.
Pang Xin was stunned: ¡°You¡¯re paying?¡±
Chen Cang nodded: ¡°He has no money¡¡±
Pang Xin couldn¡¯t help but nce at Chen Cang: ¡°Are you out of your mind?
There are so many patients, can you even manage?¡±
Chen Cang sighed: ¡°A pitiful person, let¡¯s just help out where we can.¡±
Unable to convince Chen Cang, Pang Xin couldn¡¯t help but suggest, ¡°How about letting him have the X-ray first, and then you take a photo with your phone instead of developing the film? That way you won¡¯t have to spend any money.¡± Chen Cang hesitated for a moment: ¡°That works too! Thanks, Old Pang.
Pang Xin shook his head: ¡°Go in, I¡¯ll take a look at what s going on!
A few minutester, the imaging results came out.
Pang Xin pointed to the picture on theputer and said, ¡°The situation¡ it¡¯s a bitplicated and rather unique!¡±
¡°Look, this is the pulmonary artery. The steel wire has just passed through it. Because it went through quickly and the wire is quite thin, it might not have caused too much change in a short time¡ But this is really abnormal, and there¡¯s definitely a notable pneumothorax in the lungs, which isn¡¯t recent.
¡°And¡ Wait, does the patient also have lung cancer?!¡±
Pang Xin couldn¡¯t help but widen his eyes!
Chen Cang nodded: ¡°Yes, that¡¯s right, the patient¡¯s situation is special, lung cancer with bone metastasis. He¡¯s got less than half a year, tried tomit suicide but couldn¡¯t find where the heart was, and he missed, piercing the pulmonary artery instead. Then he¡ took a train trip to the capital city, changed his mind about dying, and now he¡¯s ended up in the emergency room, refusing to leave, insisting I treat him, and iming he has no money.¡± ¡°His medical bills have drained his family¡¯s finances. He has a wife and three kids at home¡ It¡¯s pitiful, so I thought 1 might as well help if I can.¡±
Pang Xin frowned at the images: ¡°There¡¯s no help for it, look at the lungs¡ There are too many cancerous sites. 1 suspect it¡¯s not just bone metastasis¡ His life expectancy really isn¡¯t long, how are you going to treat him?¡±
Chen Cang sighed: ¡°Tomorrow when the cardiothoracic surgery department is in, I¡¯ll talk to Director Tao about removing the steel wire first, and then we¡¯ll take it from there.¡±
¡°I¡¯m leaving, thanks Old Pang!¡±
Pang Xin watched Chen Cang leave, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth: ¡°Can you really help everyone? There are so many people, just too many pitiful ones!¡±
Chen Cang didn¡¯t look back: ¡°Helping one is better than none!¡±
Zhu Yongwang saw Chen Cange out: ¡°How did it go?¡±
Chen Cang: ¡°What do you mean ¡®how did it go¡¯?¡±
Zhu Yongwang: ¡°Is there hope for me?¡±
Chen Cang responded indifferently: ¡°As for the steel wire in your chest, I¡¯ll ask cardiothoracic surgery tomorrow, but your lung cancer¡ it¡¯s difficult to treat.
Zhu Yongwang was taken aback: ¡°But this is a major hospital, surely you can treat it. 1 don¡¯t want to die. 1 still want to¡¡±
Chen Cang sighed: ¡°Take it easy, one step at a time.¡±
Zhu Yongwang nodded: ¡°Actually, I brought my ID. 1 lied to you, but I really have no money..¡±

(Requesting monthly votes!)
Back in the department, Chen Cang handed Zhu Yongwang¡¯s ID card to Nurse
Chang Lina, ¡°Register him for observation.¡±
Chang Lina was startled, ¡°But¡ but he has no money.¡±
Chen Cang, ¡°First set up a debt ount.¡±
Chang Lina, ¡°Even if we set up a debt ount, we won¡¯t get the money back!
Besides, the debt this month has already exceeded the limit, the head nurse just told me today¡¡±
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yongwang abruptly raised his head, staring at Chang
Lina with a gaze like a wolf on the brink of despair, frightening her into stepping back.
Chen Cang, ¡°He¡¯s only using some anti-inmmatory medication tonight, and it won¡¯t cost much. Let¡¯s stick to the original n; the department covers eight, and I¡¯ll cover two! Without surgery, it doesn¡¯t cost that much. 1¡¯11 go and issue the medical order.¡±
Chang Lina nodded hurriedly.
Both Chang Lina and Qin Yue were afraid something might happen to the man, so Chen Cang didn¡¯t go home and instead spent the night lying on a bed in the emergency department.
The next day, Qin Yue brought Zhu Yongwang breakfast. Considering he might eat a lot, she bought three cups of soy milk and six buns.
Zhu Yongwang hadn¡¯t eaten the night before and was famished. epting the food, he gave Qin Yue a shy smile, ¡°Thank you!¡±
After speaking, he squatted in the corner and gobbled up his meal.
As soon as Qin Yue stepped out, Chang Lina hurriedly pulled her aside after talking to a junior nurse, ¡°Go talk to him! Why aren¡¯t you saying anything? He seems gentler when he looks at you, but when he looks at us, he¡¯s like a wolf!¡±
Qin Yue was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then oh-ed, walking over.
¡°Um¡¡±
Zhu Yongwang was gulping down the soy milk, lifting the lid and not minding the heat, ¡°Delicious! What¡¯s up?¡±
Qin Yue gathered her courage, ¡°1 wanted to discuss something with you.¡±
Zhu Yongwang took a bite of the bun, filled with pork, ¡°Pork must be expensive, right?¡±
Qin Yue,¡±¡¡±
Swallowing in one gulp, ¡°You tell me, what¡¯s up?¡±
Qin Yue, ¡°The way you are gives us a lot of psychological pressure. Every time we talk to you or look at you, we are scared, afraid that you¡ might hurt someone.¡±
Zhu Yongwang paused, his chewing slowing down¡
¡°You mean¡ you want me to leave?¡±
Qin Yue quickly shook her head, ¡°No¡ Look, the nurses are also nice to you.
They even bought you breakfast this morning. Don¡¯t be so hostile to them.¡± ¡°Moreover, we need the chief physician toe and then we can discuss and consult together to make a decision!¡±
In the morning, after Li Baoshan arrived, he went straight to Zhu Yongwang for an examination, and then said to Chen Cang, ¡°First cut the steel wire short. What if he aggravates his condition by ident?¡±
Only then did Chen Cang react, quickly grabbing pliers, while Qin Yue couldn¡¯t help but cover Zhu Yongwang¡¯s eyes, ¡°Endure it for a moment.¡±
With a snip!
The man inhaled sharply!
Qin Yue asked, ¡°Does it hurt?¡±
Zhu Yongwang grinned, ¡°Not as painful as cancer!¡±
Chen Cang sent the photos in his phone to Li Baoshan, who, after a thorough analysis, said, ¡°Arrange a consultation. Let Director Taoe down, we need to discuss.¡±
Afterward, Li Baoshan stood up and left.
Zhu Yongwang abruptly stood up, a mix of confusion and anger in his voice, ¡°Are you tricking me? Is that it?¡±
Qin Yue quickly said, ¡°Of course not, your situation is very special, we need to consult with a cardiovascr surgeon for your diagnosis and treatment!
¡°After that, we¡¯ll need a case discussion based on your situation before we can develop a treatment n!¡±
When Zhu Yongwang heard this, he said, ¡°Just pull it out, and it¡¯ll be fine. Why all the fuss?¡±
Chang Lina had long been fed up with this man who acted like he owned the ce since he arrived here.
Think you¡¯re pitiful or you¡¯re tough?
Just pull it out, and it¡¯ll be fine; why don¡¯t you do it yourself?
Even Chang Lina felt that the man was here at the hospital to scam money. It¡¯d be better off if he died; after all, such things had happened before!
With this thought, Chang Lina snorted coldly and left.
Zhu Yongwang looked at Qin Yue, ¡°Really, you¡¯re not deceiving me, are you?¡±
Qin Yue nodded, ¡°I¡¯m not deceiving you.¡±
Zhu Yongwang hesitated again, ¡°I don¡¯t have money¡ 1 really have no money!¡± Qin Yue shook her head, ¡°It really isn¡¯t about the money. Don¡¯t worry about the money for now, but your family needs toe because if it¡¯s surgery, we 11 definitely need a signature. Otherwise, the surgery can¡¯t proceed!
Zhu Yongwang¡¯s eyes lit up, and he immediately shook his head: I ve no money, nor do 1 have any family!¡±
Qin Yue was taken aback, ¡°You don¡¯t have family?¡±
Zhu Yongwang just kept shaking his head: ¡°1 have no money, and no family! ¡± In the following minutes, no matter what Qin Yue asked, Zhu Yongwang had only one response: I¡¯ve no money, I have no family!
With no other choice, Qin Yue had to leave.
As soon as she went out, Chang Lina pulled Qin Yue aside.
¡°Qin Yue, let me tell you, this man is no good. You can¡¯t let yourpassion get the better of you. Look at him, he says nothing.
¡°He obviously has an ID card and he tells us he doesn¡¯t, and he won¡¯t mention his family. Isn¡¯t it just because he doesn¡¯t want to pay?¡±
¡°He behaves as if the hospital is his own house. Do we owe him something? Just because he¡¯s pitiful, he thinks he¡¯s in the right? 1 can¡¯t stand it.¡±
¡°If you¡¯re pitiful, that doesn¡¯t give you the right to create havoc, does it?¡± Qin Yue sighed, ¡°We might be hisst hope, the one he refuses to let go of!¡± ¡°He definitely won¡¯t let go. Let¡¯s do our best¡ even if we don¡¯t operate, it won¡¯t cost much!¡±
Chang Lina snorted, ¡°Qin Yue, you¡¯re too naive. I know this kind of person too well!¡±
¡°They take advantage of our kindness as a bargaining chip! They want free treatment. Just you watch, if we say we won¡¯t operate, he will definitely start making trouble!¡±
¡°I¡¯ve seen too many people like this! If you say we won¡¯t operate, he¡¯ll surely cause a scene in the hospital!¡±
In the emergency office, Tao Zi, Li Baoshan, Chen Cang, and the head of the respiratory department Yang Xiaoming were all gathered together, discussing Zhu Yongwang¡¯s surgical situation.
The conclusion of the discussion was clear:
Yang Xiaoming spoke, ¡°The patient¡¯s condition is now quite evident;te-stage lung cancer with multiple metastases. His prognosis is not promising. Whether the wire is removed or not, his survival time is short, probably only two to three months.¡±
¡°Moreover, he doesn¡¯t even have family to sign for the surgery, so we can¡¯t operate on him. To put it bluntly, the hospital is not a charity. If everyone behaved this way, the hospital wouldn¡¯t be able to function.¡±
Yang Xiaoming¡¯s words were sensible and reasonable, leaving no room for objection.
Tao Zi also nodded, ¡°I think so too. The wound where the wire is located is severely infected, and the surgery poses a great risk. Additionally, surgery, even if sessful, would still face the problem ofte-stage lung cancer and significant pneumothorax in the patient¡¯s prognosis, likely shortening his lifespan. Thus, choosing not to perform surgery seems to be the better option right now.¡±
After a long silence, Li Baoshan sighed and, looking at the X-rays, nodded, ¡°Chen, go andmunicate with him, exin the situation to him..¡±

Chapter 182: Chapter 183: Unsheathing the Dagger at the End of the Road? (Seeking monthly votes)
Chen Cang took the initiative to find Zhu Yongwang.
¡°Considering your current situation, we rmend you live with the foreign object.¡±
Zhu Yongwang didn¡¯t understand and asked with wide eyes, ¡°Live with a foreign object? What does that mean?¡±
Chen Cang patiently exined, ¡°It means we suggest not removing the wire from your body. You know about wars, right? Many people have bullets or fragments of bombs inside them that are not removed and don¡¯t affect their lives. So, this wire won¡¯t affect your life either.¡±
¡°Moreover, even if you underwent surgery, your survival period might be shorter, so¡ the hospital¡¯s conclusion is that the surgery wouldn¡¯t be of any benefit to you.¡±
Zhu Yongwang¡¯s face stiffened in an instant, then he gave a twisted smile, ¡°You mean that I¡¯m about to die anyway, so it doesn¡¯t matter whether it¡¯s removed or not, and removing it would just be a waste of money, is that right?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°You understand your own body condition very well. I can only tell you what¡¯s the most beneficial option for you. In fact, we have already done all we can do.¡±
At those words, Zhu Yongwang let out a coldugh, ¡°Are you trying to kick me out now?¡±
Chen Cang felt helpless. How many times had he been asked to leave?
Chen Cang sighed, ¡°I¡¯m not kicking you out. It¡¯s just that our capabilities are limited. We¡¯ve helped as much as we could. Anything beyond our capacity, we can¡¯t help with, and for that, we can only deeply apologize!¡±
Zhu Yongwangughed loudly, leaned back against the cab, and took a deep breath!
Chen Cang turned to leave.
Suddenly, Zhu Yongwang¡¯s eyes turned fierce, his face full of cynical contempt as if revealing a hidden de at the end of a venture!
He rushed out of the observation room and ran into the hall!
He shouted loudly!
¡°Why!¡±
¡°Why!¡±
¡°Why!¡±
¡°Why did I get sick, why can¡¯t I afford treatment because I¡¯m sick, why am I dressed in tatters while you all dress so well, why do you live in big cities, in apartments, drive cars, eat in restaurants, have medical insurance, have money! Why¡ if I don¡¯t have money, you won¡¯t treat me, is that it? Do you think I¡¯m easy to bully!¡±
¡°Fine! You won¡¯t treat me, right! I might as well get revenge on society, I¡¯m going to die soon anyway, hahaha¡¡±
The people nearby were chilled to the bone!
Everyone looked at the man with a wary expression.
Chang Lina was so scared that she hid and said to Qin Yue, ¡°Did you see that? I knew it was going to be like this! I knew it!¡±N?v(el)B\\jnn
Chen Cang quickly approached Zhu Yongwang, ¡°I¡¯ve exined it to you clearly. We¡¯ve done as much as we can. Having the surgery might actually shorten your survival!¡±
¡°Besides, we are just ordinary people. We work hard for our food,muting on public transport. We¡¯re no different from you. Please don¡¯t have such thoughts. Think about your child. Would you want your child to be the same?¡±
Zhu Yongwang turned around abruptly and stared at Chen Cang, ¡°Dr. Chen, don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t blow up the hospital. You¡¯re all good people!¡±
Chen Cang hurriedly soothed him, ¡°Zhu Yongwang, please don¡¯t jump to conclusions. Come back to the ward with me, and let¡¯s have a good talk. Rest in the ward for now. I¡¯ll go to Director Zhao and discuss your situation again,municate a bit! How about that?¡±
After Chen Cang finished speaking, he said to Qin Yue, ¡°You keep an eye on him.¡±
After saying that, he went to find Li Baoshan.
Li Baoshan saw Chen Cang running over, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±
Chen Cang exined hurriedly, and the three of them fell silent immediately, each deep in thought!
At this moment, Chen Cang took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and said seriously, ¡°All directors, I have an idea. First of all, rationally speaking, this is exactly as Director Yang and Director Tao said: he only has less than three months to live. Rather than using substantial resources for such a high-risk operation¡ªwhich might even shorten his life span¡ªit¡¯s true that we shouldn¡¯t do it!¡±
¡°However, this patient might be on the verge of copse. The blows of life have already devastated this young man. He¡¯s not that old, just in his thirties. We need to consider his innermost feelings and mental world. To heal a person is to heal the heart.¡±
¡°So, my suggestion is, we should try to save the patient. Whether or not it¡¯s sessful, we should keep him here. This is his only hope in this world, the only warmth he can feel, and perhaps this might be thest scrap of kindness he perceives from society.¡±
¡°As for the money, I¡¯ll try to scrape it together. I¡¯ll advance the funds. I¡¯ll perform the surgery! I can do it! Therefore, I hope all the leaders and directors will give me this chance!¡±
Chen Cang had made up his mind to try to save Zhu Yongwang. Spending some money, consider it an investment for a mission, it would not be a loss anyway!
But what¡¯s more important is, often you know something is futile, but you must still go through with it!
Just like this case, perhaps saving Zhu Yongwang is unnecessary, and the surgery might even bring harm!
But, the surgery can save his heart!
It can allow him to feel thest bits of warmth in the world, and add a bit of yearning for life as he departs.
After speaking, Chen Cang left the office.
Leaving the office, Chen Cang went to the observation room to look for Zhu Yongwang, but when he came out, he suddenly discovered the man was gone!
Chen Gang¡¯s expression changed immediately, and he ran back to the office where he saw Qin Yue sitting there. His face changed, and he shouted, ¡°How could you not keep an eye on him!¡±
Qin Yue was momentarily stunned, her eyes reddening, ¡°me me? Can I be med for this? Can I stop someone whose legs are on his own body?¡± ¡°Moreover, should I just not do anything all morning except follow him around?¡±
¡°Even if he stayed, what could you do? Can you save him? He has already reached this point; what can you do!¡±
Chen Cang clenched his teeth and turned to run outside!
Seeing Chang Lina, ¡°Have you seen Zhu Yongwang?¡±
Chang Lina shook her head, ¡°No! I guess he ran away?¡±
¡°It¡¯s not umon for people who can¡¯t afford the fees to flee from the emergency room every day!¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you stop him?¡±
Chang Lina chuckled, ¡°Why should I stop him? You¡¯ve seen what he¡¯s like. What if he found me annoying and stabbed me? I don¡¯t lower myself to the level of such people.¡±
¡°Besides¡ if he doesn¡¯t run, where¡¯s the money for the fees? It¡¯s me the head nurse would scold, not you.¡±
Chang Lina had not a shred of fondness for Zhu Yongwang, to be honest!
Even disgust!
Such a person, truly filled with cynicism, capable of doing anything.
She was just a nurse; it was best to keep her distance..
Chapter 183: 184: Child, Daddy Just Wants to Be Your Hero!
Chapter 183: Chapter 184: Child, Daddy Just Wants to Be Your Hero!
Qin Yue had finished her night shift, but she lingered and didn¡¯t leave.
Sitting in the office with red eyes, silent, she hesitated for a long time before she got up, changed her clothes, and left the hospital.
Seeing this, Chen Cang sighed, gave Wang Yong a nod, and hurried out after her!
Once outside the hospital, Chen Cang asked, ¡°Where are you going?¡±
Qin Yue turned her head and red at Chen Cang, ¡°None of your business!¡±
Qin Yue then headed towards Tian Jie, a bustlingmercial district close to the Provincial Second Hospital. It was the most flourishing area nearby, filled with shopping malls and always crowded.
Feeling like he had been too harsh to Qin Yue, Chen Cang took the initiative to buy her a cup of milk tea and handed it over.
¡°Don¡¯t be mad, I got carried away earlier.¡±
Qin Yue snorted coldly, took the milk tea, and sipped it.
Chen Cang and Qin Yue wandered around all day without finding Zhu Yongwang.
As dusk fell and the city lights came on, the night of Anyang City was once again lit up by neon lights.
Qin Yue sighed, ¡°Where do you think he could have gone?¡±
Chen Cang shook his head, ¡°How would I know?¡±
Sad songs yed on the street, and Chen Gang¡¯s mood suddenly grew heavy.
It wasn¡¯t just because their mission to find Zhu Yongwang had failed, but more because of his own¡ inner hurdle!
Zhu Yongwang had roamed around for the day, visiting amusement parks, parks, andrge shopping centers, taking the blurriest of photos with his old phone.
With a foolish smile, he recorded a voice message on his phone, ¡°Kids, your dad isn¡¯t a good dad, I haven¡¯t been able to take care of you, your sister, and your mom in this life; I¡¯m a bad dad, a trash dad.¡±
As he spoke, Zhu Yongwang walked into Wangfujing, enviously gazing at the magnificent decorations of the mall, muttering to himself as if it were a pce¡ smelling the special scent of perfume, Zhu Yongwang¡¯s tears flowed freely.
He didn¡¯t recognise any of the luxury brands around him; the elegantly dressed salespeople, the sophisticated business men and women, all made his head spin.
The security guard, upon seeing Zhu Yongwang who looked like a vagrant, couldn¡¯t help urging him, ¡°Hey, buddy, you should go outside. The manager will scold me when hees!¡±
Zhu Yongwang ignored him, silently standing there.
The security guard grew anxious; although there were no explicit rules against beggars entering, they always got scolded by the manager whenever they let them in!
Isn¡¯t everyone just trying to make a living?
Chen Cang and Qin Yue were just passing by when she spotted Zhu Yongwang and dashed inside!
¡°Zhu Yongwang, it¡¯s me, Qin Yue, didn¡¯t you say I was pretty? Come back with us, we¡¯ll operate on you!¡± Qin Yue said hurriedly.
Chen Cang sighed; he had been searching all day with Qin Yue, from 10 in the morning until 9 at night.
Eleven hours!
Qin Yue hadn¡¯t slept a winkst night on her night shift, from waking up at 7 in the morning to now, at 9 in the evening, it had been nearly forty hours without shut-eye.
But the stubborn Qin Yue insisted on finding Zhu Yongwang!
That¡¯s Qin Yue for you, with stubbornness and determination in her bones, reminding Chen Cang of the times when she jumped onto the stretcher to perform CPR on a patient, or when she sat in the office, sulking after being scolded by a patient¡¯s family before continuing to work shortly after.
Hearing Qin Yue¡¯s shout, Zhu Yongwang turned around with a smile and then reached into his bag.
This startled Qin Yue!
Not just Qin Yue, but Chen Gang¡¯s face also changed!
Thinking of the rampaging Zhu Yongwang, who talked about taking revenge on society that day, both their faces changed and they immediately lunged at him.
Qin Yue was even quicker to grab the bag and clutch it to her chest.
But then¡ they saw Zhu Yongwang holding an old mobile phone disying a picture.
In the photo, three children¡ªtwo girls and a boy¡ªwere smiling innocently.
All of a sudden, Chen Cang and Qin Yue were at a loss for words.
Zhu Yongwangy dejected on the ground, his eyes brimming with tears, ¡°These are my kids, they¡¯ve never left the county, never seen such a wonderful world, seen such tall buildings, or smelled a scent lovelier than flowers¡ Will they ever get out?¡±
Qin Yue¡¯s nose turned sour, and she couldn¡¯t help but choke up, ¡°There will be a chance, there definitely will be!¡±
Zhu Yongwang was arranged to stay in the emergency ward, preparing for surgery three days after wound treatment on his chest.
Qin Yue helped to get the photos from his phone developed, printing dozens of copies, including their family portrait.
Despite the blurry quality due to the phone¡¯s low resolution, the smiles were clear and unmistakable.
Chen Cang and Qin Yue walked into the ward.
Zhu Yongwang hastily hid something in his hand and quickly got up, ¡°Doctor Qin, Doctor Chen, isn¡¯t it the weekend? Why have youe?¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°Don¡¯t hide it, we¡¯ve already seen it.¡±
Zhu Yongwang then took out the photo, ¡°These are my children.¡±
Only then did Qin Yue see Zhu Yongwang crying; she touched her eyes.
¡°Your wife is really pretty; both girls look like you, and the boy takes after his mother,¡± Qin Yue said, smiling as she looked at the photo.
Zhu Yongwang bashfully said, ¡°Not as pretty as you, actually¡ I was quite handsome when I was young too.¡±
Qin Yue smiled, ¡°You still look good now!¡±
Chen Cang said, ¡°Tonight your kids and wife should be here. The hospital administration has arranged for someone to pick them up.¡±
When Zhu Yongwang heard this, he was stupefied¡
¡°You¡ How did you know?¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°We contacted the Public Security Bureau; they cooperated with us and went to pick them upst night.¡±
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yongwang burst into wailing tears.
Qin Yue and Chen Cang were taken aback¡
It took a while before he calmed down.
¡°I didn¡¯t want them to see their dad in such a wretched and incapable state! I¡ I just wanted to be their hero, not a feeble wretch, a piece of trash lying in a hospital¡ I¡¯m scared to face them¡¡±n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Cang continued, ¡°The surgery would definitely require family presence, and about the money, don¡¯t worry. Our department has donated for you; although your surgery cost is waived, you still need money for the medication, and your wife and kids will need money for food and lodging.¡±
Upon hearing this, the man¡¯s face turned red instantly, ¡°I can¡¯t ept this!¡±
Qin Yue sighed, ¡°This isn¡¯t for you, it¡¯s for the kids. It¡¯s not easy for them toe here, and once they arrived, I took them around to enjoy the beautiful sights of Anyang City, to see the tall buildings and big parks, to visit the amusement park¡ Look, they are so much better off than you. At such a young age, they¡¯ve already seen the big world outside!¡±
Zhu Yongwang sighed, ¡°Yes, when I was a child, I only stayed in the vige, I never even went to the county¡ But when I was a kid, I had my dad¡¡±
With that remark, everyone fell silent.
Zhu Yongwang got up, sighed, and looked out the window; emergency was on the first floor, and this sickroom had no sky¡ªonly a wall!
And in Zhu Yongwang¡¯s eyes¡ only helplessness and bleakness.
The surgery that had been nned changed after the patient Zhu Yongwang¡¯s family arrived.
Zhu Yongwang refused the surgery.
He left behind a letter and a cell phone with a message, then he left.
Zhu Yongwang ran away¡
All the photos had been taken by him.
His wife and children arrived at the emergency room and, upon reading the letter, burst into tears.
Chen Cang was alsopletely bewildered!
Why did Zhu Yongwang run away?
Where did he go?
What on earth was he nning to do?
Chen Cang thought long and hard and suddenly noticed his clothes hanging there¡
Chen Cang quietly took his clothes down.
He found a letter in the pocket.
Chen Cang opened it:
¡°Dr. Chen:
Thank you, Dr. Chen, for in thest and most difficult days of my life you¡¯ve given me a sense of warmth and hope, and you¡¯ve shown me thest glimmer of light.
I¡¯ve left!
I don¡¯t know how to face my wife and children.
I wanted to be their hero, to protect them against the elements, to be their pir.
But in this life¡ I can¡¯t do it anymore.
I don¡¯t dare to see them.
I also don¡¯t have the face to see them.
By the way, I have onest wish. I hope you can do me this favor. After I¡¯m gone, I wish for my organs to be donated to those in need, but I don¡¯t want my children to see my pathetic end!
I don¡¯t want to leave them with any dark memories. I only want to tell them:
Dad isn¡¯t a coward!
Please do this for me, Dr. Chen, you¡¯re a good person. Please contact the organ donation agency for me. If there¡¯s any money, give it to my wife¡
Also, please tell Dr. Qin, she¡¯s very beautiful, only someone like you deserves her. If you¡¯re reading this letter by the time it reaches you, I might already be dead, I am in¡¡±
Chen Gang¡¯s face changed dramatically!
He rushed out like a madman!
In the corner outside the window, he saw Zhu Yongwang lying against the corner, shirtless, with a knife in his hands, his gaze fixed ahead, not yetpletely dead, but¡ probably not able to hold on much longer.
Zhu Yongwang¡¯s wife, sensing something, followed Chen Cang out.
Seeing Zhu Yongwang lying in the corner, she threw herself on him like crazy!
¡°Wife, everything I want to say is in the phone. Tell the kids, their dad isn¡¯t a coward, nor will he do anything bad. Tell them to study hard¡¡±
The woman kept nodding her head.
Zhu Yongwang turned to Chen Cang, ¡°Dr. Chen, I finally found a heart¡¡±
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t hold back anymore; tears streamed down uncontrobly.
¡°Wife¡ don¡¯t let the kids see me like this; I¡¯m afraid they will remember it for a lifetime. Tell them their father was a hero who made a contribution to society!¡±
The wife kept nodding, ¡°Husband¡ you¡¯ve always been my hero¡¡±
Qin Yue, not knowing when, had also followed out and witnessed the scene.
Zhu Yongwang smiled, ¡°Dr. Qin, you¡¯re so beautiful, only¡ only Dr. Chen is worthy of you¡¡±
Zhu Yongwang turned to his wife, ¡°Wife, don¡¯t me the hospital, they¡¯re all good people. I¡¯ve written the will; donate it to those in need¡ don¡¯t me the hospital¡¡±
ps: Zhu Yongwang has passed away, having lived out his final life, the ending of his own choosing.
He wanted to die with dignity!
To die like a hero.
He didn¡¯t want to struggle like a coward anymore.
Perhaps everyone could have disliked Zhu Yongwang at the start, but¡ he is a real person, begging for survival, this was his only choice.
Whether a scoundrel or a cynic, he was just an ordinary person.
But ordinary people can be heroes too!
Ordinary people also have things they would rather die than surrender.
Zhu Yongwang, with his final donation, chose to be a hero at the end.
He wanted to tell his children that he was a hero.
As for me, I don¡¯t dislike him.
ps: In this chapter, I don¡¯t ask for anything, good night to everyone, rest early, and may all men be heroes to their children and wives, and blessings to all women, may you find your hero..
Chapter 209: 210: Oh dear, sorry to keep you all waiting, huh?
Chapter 209: Chapter 210: Oh dear, sorry to keep you all waiting, huh?
Li Baoshan felt that he might have misunderstood Chen Cang!
And he discovered that these directors might also have some misunderstandings about Chen Cang!
Are we talking about the same Chen Cang?
Hearing Li Baoshan¡¯s question, Xiao He nodded, too hurried to exin, and immediately picked up his cell phone to call Chen Cang.
Having been through a strenuous night, Chen Cang was somewhat exhausted, even with a physical bonus, but that one or two points of stamina only had a 20 percent enhancement, meaning it had increased a bit from before, but not as much as he imagined.
Chen Cang suddenly missed his surgical gown, which offered a 3-point bonus to his stamina, and a special skill, a monthly recovery.
Thinking of this, Chen Cang suddenly felt he should find an opportunity to try it out.
See just how powerful that recovery skill really is!
At that moment, a call suddenly came in, from Xiao He.
¡°Chen, you¡¯re at the hospital, aren¡¯t you?¡± Xiao He¡¯s voice had several degrees more urgency.
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but get serious, ¡°Yes, I am here; Director Xiao, what¡¯s the matter?¡±
Xiao He nodded, ¡°Come to the operating room first, the gynecology operating room, we¡¯ll talk when you¡¯re here.¡±
After speaking, the call ended, and Chen Cang quickly got up and headed toward the operating room.
Could there be something wrong again?
¡
¡
Li Baoshan watched Xiao He end the call and still couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Director Xiao, isn¡¯t this a bit hasty? Chen is a doctor in our department, only 27 years old. He hasn¡¯t dealt with esophageal surgery before, has he?¡±
When the director of gynecology, Zhang Jinfeng, heard this, his eyebrows shot up instantly, ¡°Director Xiao¡ this isn¡¯t a joke, right? Esophageal repair surgery isn¡¯t that simple. Every year, no small number of people die because of it. This is our patient, we can¡¯t afford any mishaps!¡±
Gynecology could be said to have the mostplicated inter-personal rtionships in the hospital, no exception.
Here, not only are all the doctors women, but even the patients are all women! Adding to that are all the mothers-inw and mothers apanying them; if you dare make any error, you¡¯d better watch out.
So Zhang Jinfeng didn¡¯t beat around the bush and directly urged Xiao He to dispel those wild ideas.
She thought Xiao He wanted Chen Cang to practice.
Witnessing this scene, even Xiao He was taken aback.
It was one thing for others to not understand Chen Cang, but Li Baoshan, you¡¯re the director of the emergency department, don¡¯t you understand Chen Cang?
Thinking this, Xiao He felt somewhat baffled, wondering who really was in charge of emergency¡
By now, the nurses were already preparing the operating room, and the patient was also getting ready for surgery; everything was waiting for the procedure to begin.
Seeing a group of directors gathered here, Liu Jian curiously walked over and greeted them.
Though young, Liu Jian was the star of the anesthesiology department, his skills nearly on par with the directors¡¯, and most importantly, Liu Jian had a better grasp of new things, often going out for advanced training and meetings.
Of course, all of this stemmed from the department head¡¯s esteem.
When Zhang Jinfeng saw Liu Jian, she hurriedly said, ¡°Doctor Liu, there¡¯s a surgeryter, please help with the anesthesia.¡±
Liu Jian nodded with a smile, ¡°No problem, Director Zhang, your word is mymand. My child was delivered by Director Zhang, and now at home, they¡¯re always talking about Grandma Zhang.¡±
Zhang Jinfeng heard Liu Jian¡¯s words, and his tense mood eased a bit, unable to help himself, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Liu Jian asked, ¡°What surgery?¡±
Zhang Jinfeng¡¯s expression grew grave as he said, ¡°Esophageal repair! During the childbirth process, the patient¡¯s intra-abdominal pressure suddenly increased, squeezing the stomach and causing a sudden rise in the pressure within the esophageal lumen. This caused arge pressure difference between the inside of the esophageal lumen and the thoracic cavity, leading to the rupture of the esophagus!¡±
¡°The situation is pretty severe. If Director Li hadn¡¯t called for external assistance, we would have transferred the patient. See, all these directors have been asked by me toe for consultations.¡±
After listening, Liu Jian gave a faint smile, ¡°No worries. By the way, Doctor Chen Cang should be arriving soon, right? I¡¯ll go get ready for the anesthesia.¡±
When Liu Jian said this, everyone was dumbfounded.
Zhang Jinfeng said, clueless, ¡°What Doctor Chen Cang?¡±
Li Baoshan and Tao Zi also looked at each other before turning to Liu Jian, ¡°Which Doctor Chen Cang?¡±
Seeing everyone¡¯s expressions, Liu Jian was taken aback, and looking at Xiao He, he asked, ¡°Director Xiao, isn¡¯t Chen Cang the one performing the surgery?¡±
Xiao He nodded, ¡°Yes, but Director Li has contacted Director Wei Zhi from the Provincial People¡¯s Hospital, who will arrive in less than an hour.¡±
Upon hearing this, Liu Jian couldn¡¯t help but give an embarrassed smile, ¡°Why get Wei Zhi? You all know about Niu Tianlu, right? The specialist from the capital who has been employed long-term in our hospital¡¯s thoracic surgery.¡±
How could anyone not know? Wasn¡¯t the thoracic surgery department built up thanks to him?
Niu Tianlu was the deputy director of the thoracic surgery department at the Capital¡¯s 302 Hospital; his skill level went without saying.
Zhang Jinfeng couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°We know, but didn¡¯t Director Niu return to the capital? If Director Niu were here, we wouldn¡¯t be in such a panic at all!¡±
Li Baoshan and the others also nodded in agreement.
Although the thoracic surgery department was merely a formality in the past, with Niu Tianlu around, it indeed saved everyone a lot of trouble.
The thoracic surgery department, along with the respiratory department, cardiac surgery, gastroenterology, endoscopy room, and emergency department, were all closely linked and often required mutual support.
Now that the thoracic department had been disbanded, everyone suddenly felt the pressure of continuous difficult situations.
Xiao He felt it the most distinctly!
Liu Jian continued, ¡°I¡¯ve been the anesthesiologist for Director Niu all along, haven¡¯t I? I think Director Niu¡¯s level of esophageal repair surgery is not as good as Chen Cang¡¯s.¡±
Upon hearing this, those around were shocked!
Li Baoshan felt maybe heckedmunication and understanding with Chen Cang and couldn¡¯t help saying, ¡°Doctor Liu, are you sure the Chen Cang you mentioned is the one from our department?¡±
Liu Jian was amused by Li Baoshan and nodded, ¡°Of course, does our hospital have a second Chen Cang?¡±
¡°Didn¡¯t Director Xiao have a patient yesterday? Esophageal perforation surgery, and it was Doctor Chen Cang who performed it. I watched the entire procedure from start to finish without missing a detail, and the precision was exquisite!¡±
¡°Although Director Niu is entirely capable of performing such surgery, I think the procedure¡¯s not as exquisite and delicate as Doctor Chen Cang¡¯s, especially when it came to repairing the esophagus, Doctor Chen Cang was particrly meticulous!¡±
¡°Wei Zhi¡ he specializes in the thoracic major vessel direction, but I always feel that we can perform the esophageal repair surgery ourselves!¡±
Xiao He also nodded, ¡°Indeed, I had a patient yesterday with esophageal perforation. I originally nned to have the patient transferred, but then I thought of Doctor Chen Cang and let him take a look. He said he could do it, so I let him perform the surgery.¡±
¡°I personally feel that he did very well! Not inferior to those experts at all!¡±
By this time, Chen Cang had already entered the operating room and saw a row of directors and anesthesiologists standing there, feeling a bit embarrassed.
With a coy smile, he said, ¡°Ah, waiting for me, are you? I¡¯m so sorry¡¡±
Chapter 185: 186: Hidden Profession (Extra for the Last Man on Earth.)
Chapter 185: Chapter 186: Hidden Profession (Extra for the Last Man on Earth.)
After Chen Cang googled it, he breathed a sigh of relief. No wonder he had never heard of it-it was far behind Harvard. It seemed it wasn¡¯t due to his own limited experience but rather the school¡¯sck of fame.
Hmm, the medical school¡¯s global ranking isn¡¯t that strong either, just a mere
top 10.
There¡¯s nothing particrly remarkable about the school either, just a tiny Nobel Committee that¡¯s not busy most of the time, only responsible for the evaluation and awarding of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine each year.
Chen Cang felt sour¡
You, just a mere doctoral student from the Karolinska Institute!
What are you doing in Dongyang Province?
Is this the ce you shoulde to?
Only then did Chen Cang take a look at the name, Meng Xi.
Didn¡¯t expect her to be all that remarkable either? I thought your surname would be Dongfang, Ximen, Nangong, Ouyang, or something-
in terms of looks¡ about on par with Qin Yue¡¯s little bootlicker, I suppose.
But definitely not as formidable as Qin Yue, who carried with him a ¡°Skill Book¡± that everyone feared. Thinking of this, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but touch his forehead, feeling somewhat scared in retrospect.
However, Chen Cang was stunned after seeing Meng Xi¡¯s profile!
This woman¡ pretty impressive, oh¡
A doctoral degree in cardiac surgery?
As for academic achievements¡
emmm¡
Just a few papers in The Lancet, New Ennd Journal of Medicine¡
Chen Cang casually closed the magazine, mmed the table, and said, ¡°She¡¯s the one!¡±
Good enough, let¡¯s settle for this!
Chen Cang felt he couldn¡¯t be too picky. Although the mentor was a bit young, it wasn¡¯t uneptable.
At this moment, Guan Wei came back.
Seeing Chen Cang sitting there, he asked with a smile, ¡°How¡¯s it going? Found someone you¡¯re interested in? If you have, I can help you ask around.
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°This¡ Teacher Guan, 1 think Teacher Meng Xi is not bad.
She¡¯s 30 years old, Karolinska Institute Ph.D., and her strongest point is scientific research, particrly in the field of cardiac surgery. It seems pretty suitable.¡±
Guan Wei was also taken aback for a moment, then awkwardly smiled, ¡°Little
Meng, huh?¡±
¡°Meng Xi is quite capable. She just returned to the countryst year, and initially she didn¡¯t n to take on any students, but the school encouraged her to mentor one, given her excellent qualifications. She has a strong ability in scientific research; aftering to the hospital affiliated with the school, she secured a national natural science foundation project for the hospital in the same year!¡±
¡°She even published a top-tier SCI paper on The Lancet this year. So, it seems her research ability is quite strong, but¡ her clinical skills are average, at least that¡¯s the hospital¡¯s evaluation.¡±
¡°Meng Xi is definitely a potential talent with great prospects, and there are many who follow her. There are also quite a few well-connected people who have approached her, but¡ it seems she is not very impressed by them.¡±
¡°A couple of days ago, she called me, saying that if she can¡¯t find the right one, she might as well recruit next year. It seems¡ she¡¯s not very keen on taking students.¡±
(Ding! You have triggered a hidden task: Apprentice under Meng Xi. Sessful apprenticeship allows for a career change to a special hidden upation. 1
Chen Cang was stunned!
Holy shit?
A hidden task?
A hidden upation?
Isn¡¯t this the main character¡¯s typical setup?
After Guan Wei finished speaking, he sat down opposite Chen Cang, ¡°Actually, I wouldn¡¯t rmend you apply for Meng Xi. It¡¯s her first time mentoring, so she definitelycks experience. Moreover¡ when you chose a young teacher, one downside is that the teacher is still in the ascending phase of their career. They won¡¯t pay much attention to students, unlike senior mentors who have reached their peak and focus mainly on cultivating students.¡±
¡°So, you applying for Meng Xi is not as good as applying for your hospital¡¯s Tao Zi. Director Tao is also highlypetent, and having had a few interactions with him, I can say he¡¯s a good person and is affiliated with the provincial second hospital. It would be easier for you two tomunicate.¡±
Chen Cang sighed, ¡°I don¡¯t want to apply, but¡ I really can¡¯t give up this hidden task in my hands!¡±
And this hidden upation?
How special can it be?
Can¡¯t possibly change my job to Ultraman, right!
But why do I still feel a bit of anticipation?
Moreover, after pondering for a while, Chen Cang realized his main purpose of apprenticing wasn¡¯t necessarily to learn clinical skills, after all, he had the system. As long as he got his job transfer certification, once he opened the Skill Book, what skill couldn¡¯t he grasp with ease?
However, he felt research was his Achilles¡¯ heel.
With Dr. Meng Xi being strong in this area, Chen Cang believed his main objective in doing postgraduate studies was to learn research. Compared to that, he also felt that if he applied with Meng Xi, it would probably be the correct choice.
Thinking of how the protagonists in novels instantly change jobs to be dual masters of magic and martial arts, proficient in both.
Could his special job perhaps be a triple mastery of internal and external medicine, and research? Skilled in internal medicine, even more skilled in surgery, and the ultimate in research?
With that thought, Chen Cang felt a glimmer of possibility.
He felt that not striving for it would simply be unforgivable, knowing that Dr. Meng Xi hade all the way from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden to Anyang just to set up this hidden mission for him!
With this in mind, Chen Cang smiled and said, ¡°Mr. Guan, 1 want to give it a try. How should I get there?¡±
Guan Wei looked surprised, then smiled and gave Chen Cang a thumbs-up!
¡°Kid, impressive. Alright, let me make a phone call to see when would be a good time. I¡¯ll make a call first.¡±
After saying that, Guan Wei picked up the phone and dialed directly.
The phone rang for a long time with no answer.
Guan Wei smiled awkwardly, ¡°He might be in the restroom¡¡±
Chen Cang nodded.
After a while, Guan Wei called again.
Still no answer¡
¡°He might be in surgery¡¡±
Around five in the afternoon, Guan Wei¡¯s face turned red, ¡°I¡¯ll try another call.¡±
After saying that, he called again.
This time, the call went through.
¡°Hello, Director Guan, I¡¯ve just finished a surgery.¡±
The voice carried a hint of fatigue andziness.
Guan Wei breathed a sigh of relief, feeling his face restored, ¡°Hmm, no problem, Director Meng, you¡¯ve worked hard.¡±
¡°Is there something you need, Director Guan?¡±
Guan Wei nodded, ¡°Hmm¡ It¡¯s like this, Director Meng, school is about to start, right? Do you have any suitable student candidates?¡±
Meng Xi was silent for a moment, ¡°Not at the moment. If 1 don¡¯t have anyone by the first, I might as well cancel my slot. Sorry to trouble you, Director Guan.¡± Guan Wei smiled, ¡°No trouble at all, Director Meng, what if I rmend a student? He has three years of emergency medicine experience and very good clinical skills. What do you think about meeting him sometime?¡±
Meng Xi hesitated for a moment, ¡°Have hime to my office on Monday morning. I¡¯ll meet with him and see. Is it a boy or a girl?¡±
Guan Wei, ¡°It¡¯s a guy, a young man, quite capable!¡±N?v(el)B\\jnn
Meng Xi seemed relieved upon hearing this.
¡°Hmm, that¡¯s settled then, Director Guan. I have other matters to attend to.¡±
With that, the call was ended.
Guan Wei smiled and said to Chen Cang, ¡°Go to the first hospital of Dong University¡¯s Cardiac Surgery Department this Monday and meet with Director Meng!¡±
Chen Cang nodded, the phone was close enough, and he heard everything clearly¡
But why did the person only agree after Guan Wei said ¡®the young man is quite capable¡¯? Could there be a special significance to this?
ps: A postgraduate student is akin to a research monk; supervisors favor boys for their practicality and capability, for they do more work and aren¡¯t afraid of getting tired.
Seven updates for today, I will organize the outline this afternoon, thank you-

Chapter 186: Chapter 187: Mastering Long Bear Art, Selling to the Wealthy Lady! (Vote for Monthly Tickets)
Chen Cang came back and waited for the evening feast. There was a department gathering tonight, but it wasn¡¯t time yet, so Chen Cang simplyy on the bed and took out his reward, the lucky bag!
The bag had a character for ¡°luck¡± on it and a red band, just like those used for candy in wedding celebrations.
[Lucky Bag, a small bag filled with infinite possibilities. Once opened, you can randomly obtain an item, whether it¡¯s precious or worthless, big or small.] Chen Cang suddenly wondered if this lucky bag could be used as a storage bag? Imagine during surgery, with a flick of his hand, a scalpel, separating forceps, gauze¡ all springing out one by one. How cool would that be, with his own BGM.
So cool!
[Ding! Congrattions on opening the Lucky Bag, you¡¯ve obtained a Skill Book!]
A burst of purple light shed before Chen Cang¡¯s eyes, and suddenly, a Skill Book appeared!
But¡ after the purple light faded, the lucky bag disappeared, shattering Chen Cang¡¯s beautiful dream!
However, another purple Skill Book was now in his hands!
He had already gained a purple Skill Book from ying a king-level galldder before and hadn¡¯t had the chance to check it. Now here was another one.
If only the two Skill Books were not inanimate, maybe they could have bred a little Skill Book if left alone.
Chen Cang decisively chose to open it!
[Ding! Congrattions, you¡¯ve learned: p Transntation Surgery, Master Level.]
When he saw ¡°p Transntation Surgery,¡± Chen Cang almostughed out loud like a pig, he couldn¡¯t believe his luck in getting this skill, incredible!
[p Transntation Surgery: Master Level, Special effects: 1. Normal blood flow; 2. Sensitive touch! ]
As a major showpiece of microsurgery and cosmetic surgery, Chen Cang had long coveted p transntation surgery.
p transntation is not generally performed in small hospitals; it is typically done inrge hospitals in big cities. Zheng Guotan¡¯s wife, Zhang Aixiang, will undergo such a surgery in two months.
The scar on Zhang Aixiang¡¯s forehead is quiterge, beyond the capability of regr cosmetic clinics. The repair required would indeed call for p transntation, using distant ps for stic reconstruction,mon choices being the pectoralis major p and cervical ps.
Using such ps for facial cosmetic surgery has several advantages: first, they can repair arge area; second, the donor site is hidden, making future scars less noticeable; third, the donor skin matches the facial skin color closely, creating a more seamless look after facial surgery.
This kind ofp transntation surgery requires a highly skilled team and technology. In Dongyang Province, Dongda Second Hospital is the only one capable of performing it.
A great opening performance!
Chen Cang, thrilled, energetically rubbed his hands together and promptly opened the second Skill Book.
[Ding! Congrattions, you¡¯ve learned: Breast Augmentation Surgery, Master Level!]
Chen Cang was silent.
He stared at the virtual screen with its faint purple glow, which seemed to mock him.
Chen Cang took a deep breath, thought a lot, and thought far ahead¡
It seems some things are just fate, and you can¡¯t run from them.
He clicked to receive the reward silently.
[Ding! Breast Augmentation Surgery, Master Level, Special effects: 1. Natural harmony; 2. Stable and longsting.]
Breast augmentation is a second-tier surgery, while p transntation is a third or fourth-tier surgery, depending on how the hospital categorizes it.
Chen Cang would have tomit to studying both surgeries.
After much thought, Chen Cang still decided to learn breast augmentation surgery, as it had a slightly greater appeal to him.
After all, p transntation¡ emmmmmm.
He decisively clicked on Breast Augmentation Surgery, and suddenly, the scene before him changed, and a woman appeared in front of Chen Cang.
[Ding! Tutorial begins¡]
Chen Cang, to be honest, really, was initially very tempted.
His heart pounded as if it were a pile driver.
Because breast augmentation surgery first requires a thorough understanding of the breast structure.
Before the surgical teaching even started, Chen Cang had been taught a harsh lesson!
It was through the observation and appreciation of different models that Chen Cang realized he seemed to have a big misunderstanding about breast augmentation.
Actually, there are many standards for judging the beauty of breasts, and it¡¯s not just about shallow, superficial beauty¡ªthere are various criteria involved.
And there are many standards of beauty for breasts, but overall, they can be divided into two categories, the first is whether the shape of the breasts themselves is normal, and the second is whether the shape of the breasts is harmonious with the overall body shape, both of which are very important¡
I he second point is about the matching and harmony between the shape of the breasts and the body.
I his includes not only size but also position, symmetry, height, angle, and whether it conforms to the aesthetic rules of biomechanics.
Actually, this is what we often see, that sometimesrger is not necessarily better.
Sometimes, smaller ones actually seem more exquisite.
(I believe that no matter the gender, one should have a broad breadth of experience; reflect on what you haven¡¯t seen¡)
So, in fact, breast augmentation surgery itself is not a correct name; it should be called breast stic surgery.
The purpose of stic surgery is to resolve those defects that are as if in rooms.
After the teaching was over, Chen Cang started to practice and evaluate constantly.
Chen Cang finally found that breast augmentation surgery is actually much more difficult than facial stic surgery.
Because in most surgeries, you can¡¯t anticipate what will happen during the procedure, and you literally don¡¯t know what the consequences will be after the surgery.
Breast augmentation itself has a lot of seque, the most obvious being infections, resulting in various reactions like redness, swelling, heat, and pain after the surgery-these are the main factors of failure, and there is a high incidence of these seque.
The next issues are those of aesthetics and stability, where many surgeries result in asymmetry or sagging problems, which are impossible to anticipate during the surgery.
Chen Cang practiced incessantly, and the issues he encountered just kept increasing.
To facilitate Chen Cang¡¯s memory, the system was very user-friendly.
But¡ for Chen Cang, this became a surgical challenge, somewhat distracting.
However, gradually, Chen Cang found that after seeing a lot, he started to get used to it¡
This scared Chen Cang.N?v(el)B\\jnn
He wasn¡¯t bing asexual, was he?
After all¡
Such things had urred before.
Every time Chen Cang saw Director Yue from the Breast Surgery Department of the Second Provincial Hospital, he always felt that he had an aura of being desireless, which was unusual in surgery.
This made Chen Cang wonder for a time whether Director Yue had actually returned to simplicity after being exposed to a broad spectrum of experiences!
At this thought, Chen Cang shuddered!
After the learning session ended, just as he exited the virtual space, Chen Cang¡¯s face was flushed with panic, and he quickly opened the study folder on hisputer.
Listening to the familiar music, a huge weight finally lifted from Chen Cang¡¯s heart.
PS: To answer the question from the previous chapter, someone asked whether cancer patients could donate organs. Corneas can be donated, for example, after singer Yao Mou Na died from breast cancer, her corneas were donated.
Benign tumors can be donated, but other cases require specific analysis..
Chapter 187: 188: Behind the Medical Dinner (Please Vote for Monthly Tickets)
Chapter 187: Chapter 188: Behind the Medical Dinner (Please Vote for Monthly Tickets)
The gathering was set for 6:30 PM at a frequently visited restaurant in the Tian Streetmercial district.
Today¡¯s gathering was on the department¡¯s tab, and almost everyone from surgery, except for An Yanjun who was on duty, was present.
Emergency department gatherings were rare, so this time everyone was there for the fun of it.
Li Baoshan had brought several bottles of fine liquor from home. He didn¡¯t drink, but that didn¡¯t mean he¡¯d prevent others from drinking.
One characteristic of the emergency department was the high proportion of young people among the old, middle-aged, and young, mainly because the department hired many temporary workers.
Where there are many young people, it¡¯s easy for things to be lively, and the meal was indeed boisterous.
In the middle of the meal, a middle-aged man apanied by a young man and woman entered, all dressed in business attire.
The man, beaming with enthusiasm, came in smiling and greeted Li Baoshan, ¡°Director Li, what a coincidence, having a department dinner today?¡±
Li Baoshan¡¯s expression flickered and he stood up, nodding slightly, ¡°Uh, hello, President Zhao.¡±
The man was not old, just over forty, but he looked very charismatic. In Wang Qian¡¯s words, he looked very wealthy, with his designer outfit speaking volumes of his affluence.
Some people¡¯s charisma is genuine, while most is built upon the foundation of wealth.
After exchanging pleasantries with Chen Bingsheng and others, the man said, ¡°Just passing by to say hello. Enjoy your meal, I won¡¯t disturb you further.¡±
After nodding to Li Baoshan, he smiled and left.
Li Baoshan hurried after him, with the head nurse Tian Xiann also running out.
Chen Cang had seen the man before, a frequent visitor to the department. If Yuan Fan had been there, he would definitely have recognized the fetching young woman.
President Zhao was the general manager of a pharmaceuticalpany in Dongyang Province. Despite his casual entrance and greeting as if meeting an old friend, his purpose was quite evident¡ªto let Li Baoshan know who had paid the bill.
These astute individuals never show off in public. Making a brief appearance and then leaving, after which Li Baoshan would find out that the bill was settled!
You might not care once or twice, but what about after many more times?
In fact, department dinners usually involved pharmaceutical representatives chipping in with money.
Li Baoshan was reluctant to provoke these people, mainly because of the emergency department¡¯s medication issues.
Emergency medications differ greatly from regr medications, as many of them are life-saving.
For this reason, Li Baoshan was strict about this aspect, only using established medications that have stood the test of time in the market.
For example, the emergency department often treats patients with pain, and Ibuprofen is amonly used medication with high sales.
Most people visiting a pharmacy don¡¯t pay attention to the brand or the manufacturer; as long as it¡¯s Ibuprofen, it¡¯s fine.
Because people might think that all manufacturers¡¯ drugs are the same, after all, they all contain Ibuprofen.
However, there are not a few instances each year where emergency medication leads to mishaps.
And even when something goes wrong, you can¡¯t find the cause, which can be deadly.
A few years ago, an emergency department at Dongyang Provincial People¡¯s Hospital faced an incident during a resuscitation because of their choice of norepinephrine.
Although everyone knows what norepinephrine is, many manufacturers produce it, with the mostmon ones being Lian Shu, Tianjin Jinyao Amino Acid, Shanghai Hefeng, and many others.
Yet, such amon medication brought a fatal blow to the patient!
Li Baoshan naturally knew why Zhao Kangbo hade.N?v(el)B\\jnn
So he hurriedly got up and chased after him.
Eating someone¡¯s food makes one soft, taking someone¡¯s gift makes one short-handed; this is an unchanging truth through the ages.
Following Zhao Kangbo out, Li Baoshan quickly signaled to the head nurse, Tian Xiann.
Tian Xiann instantly understood and hurriedly got up to go pay the bill.
Zhao Kangbo also smiled, ¡°Director Li, now you¡¯re being too formal. The restaurant has an agreement with us; we get discounts on our meals. Isn¡¯t this just about saving some funds for our department?¡±
Li Baoshan smiled, ¡°Zhao is rich and generous; such small expenses are nothing for you. But in our department, every penny must be ounted for. Should there be any issues, Li Baoshan cannot bear the responsibility.¡±
Zhao Kangboughed and shook his head, ¡°Director Li, you joke.¡±
While talking, Zhao Kangbo pulled Li Baoshan to the side, ¡°Director Li, to be frank, our medicine has been in the hospital for five or six years, and it has always had good effects. Moreover, it¡¯s cheaper than those bigpanies, which is a good thing for patients, right?¡±
¡°Moreover, the young doctors in the emergency department also need to support their families. You know that the respiratory and cardiology departments are using it, and it¡¯s working very well. Maybe Director Li could take this into consideration?¡±
Li Baoshan nodded, ¡°Hmm, I will think about it when I get back.¡±
¡
¡
In the evening, as soon as Chen Cang got back, Zhang Zhixin called.
¡°Chen, I¡¯m on duty in the department tomorrow, so I won¡¯t go to the stic surgery hospital. You can go on your own if you want to shadow someone or do it yourself, but¡ be careful, don¡¯t let anything go wrong.¡±
Zhang Zhixin gave Chen Cang a heads-up.
Chen Cang nodded and smiled, ¡°Okay, I got it, Boss Zhang.¡±
As soon as Zhang Zhixin hung up, Fu Yufang called.
¡°Chen, it¡¯s me, your sister Fu!¡±
Chen Cang suddenly realized that when he heard this name, he wasn¡¯t scared!
¡°Mm, Sister Fu, hello!¡±
Fu Yufang smiled faintly, ¡°Chen, I was hoping you could do me a favor.¡±
¡°It¡¯s my younger sister, she¡¯s only 24 this year, but her chest hasn¡¯t developed. She¡¯s seen doctors at major hospitals, and they all say it¡¯s micromastia, congenital, and it doesn¡¯t affect normal life. However, she¡¯s very dissatisfied with her figure and thinks about stic surgery all the time. She¡¯s visited various stic surgery hospitals big and small and even went to South Koreast year. They all said her body type wasn¡¯t easy to design for, and mainly, she¡¯s a dance student. Since you know many people, do you know any skilled breast stic surgeons who could help design something?¡±
Chen Cang, ¡°Sister Fu, bring her over tomorrow and let me have a look first. Hearing you describe it like this, I can¡¯t judge.¡±
Upon hearing this, Fu Yufang quickly nodded, ¡°Alright, alright, then it¡¯s settled. I¡¯ll bring my sister over tomorrow and have you take a look too, to see how it could be designed.¡±
Chen Cang smiled without refusing.
By now, he was no longer the same as he had been before.
He had seen all sorts of situations.
¡
After hanging up the phone, Fu Yufang said with a smile, ¡°Little sister, I¡¯ll take you to see him tomorrow. That Chen is quite skilled, maybe he really can sort you out.¡±
The girl smiled, ¡°Sister, it¡¯s okay, I¡¯ve been getting by all these years. If it¡¯s small, so be it. I¡¯m used to it anyway!¡±
Chapter 188: 189: All By Feeling! (Asking for Monthly Pass)
Chapter 188: Chapter 189: All By Feeling! (Asking for Monthly Pass)
Chen Cang arrived early at the stic surgery hospital and sat in Zhang Zhixin¡¯s office.
Behind Zhang Zhixin were some magazines and journals, most of which were closely rted to breast stic surgery.
Around nine o¡¯clock, Fu Yufang walked in with a girl in a basketball outfit. The moment Chen Cang looked up, he slightly frowned, as she seemed truly t.
Fu Yufang smiled, ¡°Xiao Chen, this is my sister, Fu Yn.¡±
Chen Cang nodded with a slight smile, ¡°Hello!¡±
The girl smiled heartily, ¡°Hello!¡±
Chen Cang had to admit, the young girl looked spirited, attired in a red basketball outfit and sports shoes, which made her seem very sunny.
After closing the door, Fu Yufang got straight to the point, ¡°Shall we start?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°You can go behind the screen to take off your clothes¡¡±
The girl nodded, ¡°That¡¯s not necessary!¡±
Finishing her sentence, she swiftly and straightforwardly stood there!
Despite Chen Cang being worldly, he was taken aback for a moment, ¡°Quite candid!¡±
Even Fu Yufang was thrown off, awkwardly sighing and holding her forehead, wondering how she ended up with such a sister!
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but ponder how different siblings could be, even though they were born from the same mother.
Fu Yufang¡¯s every move was full of femininity, whereas Fu Yn, who was ten years younger, was much different in personality.
Chen Cang suddenly had a thought, could it be that breasts truly could influence a girl¡¯s character?
However, Chen Cang also quickly got up and started to gesture and carefully observe the girl for the best surgical approach, which not only required observation but also understanding of the thymus, muscles, skin sticity, and so forth¡
About fifteen minutester, Chen Cang had a clear idea after the examination.
He said, ¡°You have very little ndr tissue and fat content, which is why it¡¯s so t. You have a typical case of micromastia.¡±
¡°However¡ your skin sticity is still good, but the breast muscle fibers are not very strong, and you have very little ndr tissue, so even with imntation, there¡¯s indeed some difficulty! The difficulty mainly lies in the aftermath, often worrying about the imnt shifting due to dancing.¡±
Fu Yn sighed immediately, ¡°Right! The doctors in Korea said the same thing. They said that even with imnts, they might not be stable because I continue dancing. The intense movements can lead to asymmetry, and they simply wouldn¡¯t stay put, even if the surgery were sessful¡ it would be quite challenging!¡±
¡°And there are numerous risks, such as imnt discement, or if there¡¯s any mismatch with the cavity, it can lead to twisting or extrusion, too manyplications!¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°Of course, it¡¯s not impossible to achieve.¡±
At this, Fu Yn¡¯s eyes lit up, ¡°You mean¡ there¡¯s a chance?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Hmm!¡±
Fu Yn seemed to have done extensive research, ¡°Then can I use my own fat?¡±
Chen Cang stood up, turned around, and decisively said, ¡°No!¡±
Fu Yn was far too thin, with too little fat in any area.
¡°Oh! Okay, I was just asking. I used to think that getting fatter would erge my breasts, so I ate a lot¡ but I got up to 140 and my belly was bigger than my breasts, so I came to realize that it just wasn¡¯t meant to be! I had to lose weight quickly. If I had known then that fat was needed, I wouldn¡¯t have lost weight and would have just moved the fat to the right ce!¡± Fu Yn sighed.
After understanding the situation, Fu Yn decided to give it a try, figuring she could deal with any issuester.
After all, living once as a person, and a woman at that, it can¡¯t just be so t, right? That would be too frustrating if she were to die like that!
With that in thought!
Fu Yn looked at Chen Cang, ¡°Doctor, use the best imnts on me! And the biggest ones!¡±
Chen Cang shook his head, ¡°It won¡¯t work, you can¡¯t handle it.¡±
Chen Cang felt like this breast augmentation was turning into bargaining at a vegetable market, ¡°No, your frame is also very small, you don¡¯t have enough nds or fat, and your muscles aren¡¯t up to it either. If you chose toorge an imnt, it wouldn¡¯t fit if the thoracic diameter isn¡¯t sufficient. Not only could the imnt cause conflict once inside, but it could also increase the burden on your heart and body.¡±
¡°More importantly, your skin doesn¡¯t have enough tensile strength, and since you¡¯re also a dancer, toorge an imnt isn¡¯t a good thing. For safety, it would be better if the volume of the imnt is a little smaller. If after the surgery you find your skin and muscles have adapted, we can imnt some of your own fat, which would make it look more natural and full!¡±
Chen Cang selected a pair of 20 teardrop-shaped Mentor imnts for her.
These imnts had memory gel and were made from a high-quality material that mimics human soft tissue.
After choosing the imnts, Chen Cang was ready to start the surgery.
Fu Yn suddenly asked, ¡°Doctor Chen, I was wondering¡ can these things get damaged?¡±
Chen Cang awkwardly smiled, ¡°They won¡¯t break, and there¡¯s actually a benefit too!¡±
Fu Yn was momentarily perplexed, ¡°What benefit?¡±
Chen Cang, ¡°Didn¡¯t you see the news? Some time ago, a dumped body case was solved because of the imnts in the woman¡¯s body. The police tracked down the perpetrator step by step through the unique serial numbers on the imnts¡¡±
¡°Every number is one of a kind!¡±
Fu Yn¡¯s eyes brightened!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
¡
The surgery began!
Chen Cang chose to make the incision in the armpit, about 2-3 cm. Since the skin folds there were deep and rough, the scar would hardly be noticeable after healing.
The essence of the surgery revolved around separation and imntation!
Chen Cang picked up the specially made separating forceps and probed bit by bit towards the breast area from the incision, separating along the superficial fasciayer towards theteral edge of the muscle!
Next, Chen Cang needed to bluntly open the muscle fascia and find the space between the pectoralis major and minor muscles. ording to the pre-operative markings, the instrument for breast nd dissection was used to bluntly separate the space between the chest muscles, suitable for inserting the imnt.
This process was the most challenging, as any inconsistency between both sides of the surgery could easily lead to an asymmetrical result.
Furthermore, if you don¡¯t properly master the space between the muscles when inserting the imnt, and thus can¡¯t secure it properly, such problems be even more severe!
And Chen Cang¡¯s breast augmentation surgery¡¯s hallmark¡ªstability and longevity¡ªwas to reasonably choose the angle and method of imnt insertion!
All of these steps were done blindfolded. Without thousands of surgeries¡¯ worth of experience and training, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t guarantee the sess rate of the surgery!
Pinching the imnt between his fingers, Chen Cang slowly pushed it through the incision and into the dissected space between the chest muscles, taking care to adjust the shape with his fingers as he inserted it.
All of this relied on feeling!
PS: For now, three chapters. A few more wille tomorrow noon.
Chapter 189: 190: What is Art! (Added for those who do good with their hands tied)
Chapter 189: Chapter 190: What is Art! (Added for those who do good with their hands tied)
Art emanates from life, and so does medicine.
When Chen Cang was performing the Long Bear surgeries in the virtual space, he kept thinking about something.
That was changing the inner tube of a bicycle!
During his university days, the hospital where Chen Cang interned was quite far from his dormitory, so he had to cycle to work every day, and there was an old man who fixed bicycles near the hospital entrance.
The old man had an amazing skill for changing inner tubes, which was universally acknowledged to be strong!
Typical craftsmen would first remove the wheel, then rece the old inner tube with a new one, doing everything step by step, which took about twenty minutes to half an hour. But when the old man changed inner tubes, he neither removed the wheels nor the outer tires; he simply lifted the wheel hub off the fork a little to create a gap through which he could easily exchange the inner tubes.
During surgery, Chen Cang suddenly realized that breast augmentation was quite akin to changing a tire!
Make an incision, stuff in the prosthesis, and it¡¯s that simple.
But it¡¯s also far from simple!
After all, it was for aesthetic purposes, and the first criterion for perfection was the ideal cement between the second and sixth ribs, finding an area with a diameter of 10-12cm, and creating a mound with a height of 5-6cm, best positioned at the midpoint of the upper arm, with the midpoints of the left and right corbones forming an isosceles triangle. A base length of 20cm for this triangle was considered the most perfect spatial perception!
All these precise indicators had to be achieved by the surgeon¡¯s skills and were not as simple as one might imagine.
At this moment, Chen Cang was not a surgeon, but an artist.
stic surgery wasn¡¯t just about stuffing things in.
The upper limits and quality of a work of art were unlike ordinary medical treatment.
Once the appendix was removed, it was gone, but when an artwork was ced there, it immediately captivated!
That was capability!
And it was art!
The difference between Michngelo and an ordinary craftsman wasn¡¯t whether one could sculpt a person, but whether one could sculpt a David!
The same went for Long Bear surgery.
Fu Yn was Chen Cang¡¯s first piece of work, and what Chen Cang aimed for was mastery of the highest order, not the craft of an ordinary workman; what it required was fine craftsmanship.
Breast augmentation wasn¡¯t a job one person could do. The anesthetist in the room was Zhang Zhixin¡¯s exclusive anesthetist, named Chang Yuanming, who was a bit curious when Chen Cang first called him for surgery; the young Dr. Chen hadn¡¯t been here long, but he always operated with Zhang Zhixin, so they were quite familiar with each other.
The assistant was a young man named Little Cui, who chose to work at Zhixin stic Surgery Hospital instead of a regr hospital since graduating from medical school. After all, this ce offered quicker earnings and lower barrierspared to hospitals.
Little Cui watched Chen Cang with curiosity, and though he didn¡¯t speak, his furrowed brows conveyed his bewilderment. He noticed that Chen Cang¡¯s technique was entirely different from Zhang Zhixin¡¯s!
It wasn¡¯t about who did it better, but Chen Cang¡¯s attention to detail seemed to have reached an extreme!
Both were puzzled by this, and even over a minor detail, Chen Cang would work on it seven or eight times.
Chen Cang put in a lot of effort in imnting the prosthesis!
He went back and forth,paring positions no less than ten times.
For a prominent shape, one must have the perfect tear-drop form, simr to ¡°Mir¨®¡¯s Venus.¡±
Chen Cang¡¯s eyes were like built-in rulers, meticulously adjusting to achieve a 5cm or so axis height, creating an almost 90-degree angle with the chest wall!
This height was crucial!
Generally speaking, the best proportions follow the golden ratio of half to 0.618!
The proportion of height to diameter this way would align perfectly with human aesthetics.
Chen Cang took a deep breath, knowing that what followed needed a change in fullness, as a perfect Long Bear surgery had to consider all aspects.
Fu Yn was a dancer, and Chen Cang had to think about the issue of fullness, where perfect fullness could produce a rhythmic dynamism in tune with the continuous motion of the body.
Dance is a way for women to express beauty, a full embodiment of their figures.
What Chen Cang sought to create was an artwork that, whether standing or lying still, looked as serene as a water droplet, and in leaps and turns, exhibited the three-dimensional beauty of dynamic rhythm.
As time ticked by, second by second.
The anesthetist, Chang Yuanming, couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Dr. Chen¡ we¡¯re running short on time.¡±
Truth be told, Chen Cang¡¯s surgery time was far longer than Zhang Zhixin¡¯s.
If it was going to be done, Chen Cang would do it to a standard of a million dors, designing an art piece.
Chen Cang¡¯s hand movements were gentle and deliberative, his eyes thoughtful, even starting to envision various angles and pressures¡
¡
The surgery ended!
Fu Yn just woke up at this time.
Chang Yuanming, quite honestly, was sweating bullets; he never imagined that a surgery could take so long.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At this time, Fu Yn was a bit dazed.
¡°Dr. Chen¡ have I changed?¡±
Chang Yuanming was taken aback¡
Shouldn¡¯t you be asking who you are, where you are?
Outside the operating room, Fu Yufang had been waiting anxiously for a while. It¡¯s untrue to say she wasn¡¯t nervous or worried about such a lengthy surgery. After all, it¡¯s surgery, and who wouldn¡¯t be scared?
Then the door to the operating room opened, and Fu Yufang eagerly approached Fu Yn, who had just woken up.
¡°You¡¯re awake?¡±
Fu Yn rolled her eyes, ¡°Just like waking up from sleep¡¡±
Fu Yufang quickly asked, ¡°Are you feeling ufortable?¡±
Fu Yn nodded, ¡°It still hurts!¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°That¡¯s a normal reaction; don¡¯t be afraid.¡±
Fu Yn obediently nodded. What she cared about the most now was not whether it hurt,
but without Chen Cang speaking, she didn¡¯t dare touch or feel, and couldn¡¯t see, so she just waited to return to the ward to discover for herself.
It was the same VIP ward as before.
Aftering in, Fu Yufang closed the door, and Fu Yn, without any hesitation in front of Chen Cang, immediately mored, ¡°Sis, grab me the mirror quickly!¡±
Fu Yufang had no mirror on hand, and seeing this, Fu Yn, anxious, jumped up and ran toward the bathroom.
Chen Cang, standing outside, suddenly heard a burst of heart-wrenchingughtering from within!
¡°Hahaha¡¡±
¡°Sis, sis, quick, take a photo of me!¡±
Chapter 190: 191: Million Level! (Added for those who do good with their hands tied)
Chapter 190: Chapter 191: Million Level! (Added for those who do good with their hands tied)
Fu Yufang was also looking forward to it, wondering what the result of her sister¡¯s cosmetic surgery would be.
But when she saw Fu Yn undoing her hospital gown, Fu Yufang was instantly dumbfounded!
It¡¯s true that men and women have fundamentally different perspectives on things, but there is certainly a kind of beauty that would make anyone, regardless of gender, exim ¡°666¡±!
Women¡¯s familiarity with their own bodies is beyond what any man canpare to¡ªGod knows what women think about all day long? (Femalerades, don¡¯t hit me)
When Fu Yufang saw the result, her mouth hung open in astonishment, not knowing what to say!
Fu Yufang knew her sister very well, to be honest. Even when Fu Yn had her first period at the age of 12, she didn¡¯t go to their mother, she went to Fu Yufang.
They had always been close since childhood, and not just in a sisterly way, but with a taste of best friends as well.
Fu Yn would share everything with Fu Yufang¡ªworries, sorrows, joys¡ªso Fu Yufang naturally apanied Fu Yn through this surgery.
But at this moment!
Fu Yufang was shocked.
Truly beautiful!
Actually, women¡¯s thoughts are quite simple, not thatplicated.
And when ites to many aspects of themselves, many women even feel ack of confidence; they¡¯re afraid their husband will disdain them, dislike them, and so on.
Even if she¡¯s a superstar CEO, a powerful female figure, once she takes off her clothes, she¡¯s still just a woman, ultimately troubled by typical feminine concerns.
And now, from a woman¡¯s perspective, Fu Yufang was looking at Fu Yn feeling a mix of envy and astonishment!
Truly too beautiful!
Fu Yn, looking at herself in the Mirror, was ecstatic, excited, shocked, and eager to try.
There was only one thought in Fu Yn¡¯s mind: Is this me?
Is this me?
With that thought, Fu Yn picked up her phone and started snapping photos from every angle¡ªafter all, she had never been this beautiful before!
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became.
Seeing that the two of them were noting out, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but cough and said, ¡°Well, can youe out first? I still have something to tell you.¡±
Hearing this, both of their faces turned red, and they hurried out.
Chen Cang looked at Fu Yn and smiled faintly, ¡°So, are you satisfied?¡±
Fu Yn smiled joyfully, ¡°Satisfied! Very satisfied! Dr. Chen, you are amazing. It doesn¡¯t affect my dancing, right?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Mmm, it won¡¯t affect it. But you need to rest during this period, and take your medicine ording to the prescription. It still hurts a bit now, don¡¯t touch it. I¡¯m afraid of infection. Wait three to five days, and it will get better, then you can be discharged from the hospital.¡±
Fu Yn immediately nodded, ¡°Thank you, Dr. Chen!¡±
¡°To be honest, I¡¯ve really gone to a lot of trouble, traveling over mountains and seas, visiting more than a dozen stic surgery hospitals, been to South Korea and the United States. But I wasn¡¯t satisfied with what they offered. I¡¯ve personally seen a lot of their finished products, but they are nothingpared to yours!¡±
¡°It¡¯s truly beautiful!¡±
¡°I didn¡¯t care before because I was afraid of other people¡¯s criticism, so I ridiculed myself. Then, ridiculing myself became a habit. Actually, for us dancers, physique is very important!¡±
¡°Now I can imagine the feeling of standing on the stage in my costume! It¡¯s fabulous! Dr. Chen, you really have changed me!¡±
¡°Thank you, Dr. Chen. Oh, how much is it? This¡ must be expensive, right?¡±
Although Fu Yn mentioned ¡®expensive¡¯, she didn¡¯t seem too troubled by the cost, just a bit nervous and curious!
Mirror nodded, ¡°Hmm, you are the most sessful one I¡¯ve done, and the one I¡¯ve put the most heart into, so naturally it won¡¯t be cheap.¡±
Generally speaking, the price of this kind of bear-part stic surgery has always remained high. The cheaper ones are around forty to fifty thousand, decent ones are around two hundred thousand, and it¡¯s not impossible for the more incredible ones to cost over a million.
Nowadays, some tycoons, in pursuit of effect, use hyaluronic acid injections as fillers, and the cost of such a procedure also reaches one to two million.
In the surgery Mirror had just performed, ording to the regr fees of Zhixin stic Surgery Hospital and for an operation with imnts, it would be around one hundred and fifty thousand, but Mirror didn¡¯t believe his own surgery should be priced at that.
Mirror believed that this was his ownbor, and offering it cheaply would simply not do his product justice.
This was also a dismissal and desecration of his own skill!
So Mirror did not hesitate this time: ¡°One million! Inclusive of all expenses, one million. If anyplications arise, you cane to me.¡±
Fu Yufang and Fu Yn were also slightly taken aback.
Indeed, not cheap!
But, Fu Yn did not hesitate, ¡°Alright, one million I think is worth it! Dr. Chen, when should I pay you?¡±
Mirror shook his head, ¡°No rush, wait until you¡¯ve recovered well after five days, and¡ have a feel for it, if you feel satisfied, then pay me.¡±
This type of surgery, Mirror wouldn¡¯t perform very often, but whenever he did, he naturally wanted to achieve his own level of perfection.
Fu Yn nodded, while Fu Yufang seemed to be thinking deeply, also eager to try.
She had spent over four hundred thousand on her cosmetic procedures, and naturally, was somewhat dissatisfied with that particr area.
Now, the results of Fu Yn¡¯s surgery had even more solidified Fu Yufang¡¯s resolve!
Must do it!
Absolutely must!
It¡¯s just one million, right?
Just ask Old Guo for it.
After all, no matter what she went through, the end beneficiary of the ¡°product¡± was him, so who else but him should be footing the bill?
He doesn¡¯t spend on inte celebrities or streamers, what¡¯s this amount of money to him?
With this thought, Fu Yufang became even more resolved in her decision.
The reason Mirror set this price, firstly, was because he didn¡¯t want to be bogged down with various issues. Doing one such surgery was very time-consuming and energy-draining. If he only got three to five hundred thousand, it wouldn¡¯t be any different from doing surgery on ordinary people.
One million is a threshold. Not many people can spend one million on such surgery, which naturally forms an exclusive circle.
Secondly, it is about getting what you pay for. Your one-million product and a three-hundred-thousand product are fundamentally different.
Many people don¡¯t understand the product, but they can understand the price. The price, subtly, makes people think that the effect of a one-million product naturally can¡¯t bepared to a three-hundred-thousand one.
Moreover, those willing to spend one million on this understand why they do it.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Medical aesthetics and healthcare are two different circles within the same industry.
One is akin to a necessity for living, while the other is a luxury.
Hospitals often see ordinary people who look down on illness, as well as those who are impoverished or impoverished due to illness, but when have you ever heard of someone going bankrupt because of stic surgery? (Exorcism sign for the nitpickers!)
ps: Because of chapter 189 being blocked, I had to modify the chapter, leading to only two chapters being released this morning, which pains me deeply.
I hope the big shots can understand the public sentiment and notice the finer details.
I¡¯ve also be cautious, so I try not to write certain words. Just understand the implication!

Chapter 191: Chapter 192: It¡¯s Quite Nice to Be a Salted Fish That Can Win by Lying Down (Please Subscribe!)
Zhang Zhixin heard that Chen Cang had performed a bear augmentation surgery and almost exploded with anger!
He picked up the phone and called Chen Cang right away!
Unfortunately, no one answered!
This made Zhang Zhixin panic, this rascal was really getting out of hand, he had only learned for a few days and dared to perform bear augmentation surgery!
You¡¯d be lucky you haven¡¯t seen me perform general surgery, otherwise you¡¯d be out of this world!
After waiting impatiently until the end of the workday, Zhang Zhixin hurriedly drove back to the aesthetic medicine hospital and rushed upstairs with urgency.
Chen Cang hadn¡¯t returned yet and was sitting in his office, thoughtfully reading a paper by Qin Yue published in ¡°Liver Transntation¡±.
When should he take the time to activate Qian Liang¡¯s Master¡¯s Mandate?
Zhang Zhixin burst in, panting and said, ¡°Chen Cang! You little¡ Why did you go and do a bear augmentation surgery on your own! And for Fu Yufang¡¯s sister at that! You really are¡¡±
Chen Cang saw Zhang Zhixin leaning against the door, out of breath and struggling to speak smoothly.
He sighed, ¡°Boss Zhang, aren¡¯t youfortable sitting at home and collecting money as a boss? You even came all this way!¡±
Zhang Zhixin¡¯s eyelid twitched uncontrobly, being with Chen Cang was truly an exercise in patience.
¡°If I didn¡¯te over, you might have torn the aesthetic hospital down¡¡±
¡°Do you know how to perform breast augmentation surgery?! Big brother, my lord, can you please take it easy from now on?¡±
Before Zhang Zhixin finished speaking, Fu Yufang suddenly pushed the door and entered.
Fu Yufang saw the two seemed to be in the midst of an intense argument and gave an awkward smile, ¡°Am I interrupting something?¡±
Zhang Zhixin saw that it was the wealthy Mrs. Fu and immediately smiled, ¡°No, no, just an academic discussion!¡±
Fu Yufang gave a slight smile, ¡°It¡¯s good to be educated. My husband Guo is all about money all day long, always talking about buying this and that, it¡¯s driving me nuts!¡±
Zhang Zhixin was stunned, I too want to talk about money, but¡ I need to have money first!
Chen Cang suddenly realized why they call someone a poor schr, they¡¯re all so poor, how can they not be bitter?
Even if you don¡¯t want to be bitter, faced with this kind of ostentatious wealth unting, could you not be?
Zhang Zhixinughed, ¡°Just a casual chat, so¡ Miss Fu, you¡¯re here for¡?¡±
Fu Yufang hurriedly pulled out a card from her bag and said embarrassedly, ¡°Dr. Chen, let¡¯s settle the surgery fee first, we¡¯re old friends now, and we trust Dr. Chen. And besides, we¡¯ll have more interaction in the future.¡±
After Chen Cang left earlier, Fu Yufang and Fu Yn had a brief chat.
Fu Yufang still felt it was more appropriate to pay Chen Cang first, after all, the surgery was already done, and as for the aftermath, they could deal with the consequences if there were anyter, one thing at a time.
One million is not a small amount, but it¡¯s not too much either. Once she undergoes the bear enhancement surgery, totaling two million, it¡¯s like buying a new car for her husband. After all, the car also costs two million. Thinking about it, Fu Yufang¡¯s face blushed.
Plus, she was nning to undergo the procedure herself soon, to leave a good impression on Chen Cang.
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°Sister Fu, it¡¯s all the same.¡±
Fu Yufang also smiled, ¡°Dr. Chen, you¡¯ve been working hard for so long, and the surgery fee is definitely what it should be. Besides, I¡¯m sure there¡¯s no problem¡ªI just checked, and it¡¯s really beautiful! Even I, as a woman, was tempted for a long time, so in this regard, one million is truly not expensive! Honestly, it¡¯s worth it!¡±
Zhang Zhixin was stunned, unable to interject in their conversation.
Wait a second¡
What one million?
Zhang Zhixin suddenly felt dumbfounded!
What thing costs one million?
Zhang Zhixin suddenly realized, Chen Cang¡ you¡ one million for a breast augmentation surgery?
Why don¡¯t you shoot for the stars!
Damn it!
Chen Cang, you must be thinking I¡¯ve had too smooth a ride recently, not enough trouble, right?
If something goes wrong, how much will it cost topensate?
Thinking this, Zhang Zhixin felt his health deteriorating even further.
Zhang Zhixin couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Wait, Miss Fu, how much is this? One million? Could there be some misunderstanding?¡±
Fu Yufang was momentarily startled, then quickly shook her head, ¡°No, I think the price is quite fair. You get what you pay for, and I think Dr. Chen¡¯s skills are worth one million!¡±
¡°Just like facial stic surgery, I did spend 400,000 on mine, not cheap, but it¡¯s miles different from those Inte celebrity faces on the streets. When my mother-inw came back, she didn¡¯t scold me but instead praised how well I maintain myself!¡±
¡°So, you get what you pay for, Dr. Chen¡¯s one million is not expensive at all!¡±
Zhang Zhixin forced himself to calm down, realizing he truly had a generational gap in the concept of money with the wealthy Mrs. Fu!
Maybe¡ perhaps¡ I underestimated the value of my own work?
Or is my self-awareness not clear enough?
Thinking this, Zhang Zhixin felt he needed to learn from Chen Cang.
How on earth can you please a wealthy woman, so that she gleefully hands over her money to you!
Combining these experiences¡ Chen Cang must be well-versed in this art.
Seeing Fu Yufang so satisfied, Zhang Zhixin finally felt a huge weight lift from his shoulders.
During their conversation, Fu Yufang said, ¡°Doctor Chen, let¡¯s go settle the bill.¡±
In a state of bewilderment, Zhang Zhixin watched as Chen Cang went with Fu Yufang to take care of the payment.
Afterward, Chen Cang gave some instructions on matters Fu Yn needed to pay attention to.
Once Fu Yufang had left, Zhang Zhixin immediately pulled Chen Cang aside, ¡°Do you really know how to perform breast augmentation surgery?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Yes, I couldn¡¯t possibly cause trouble for Boss Zhang here, could I?¡±
Zhang Zhixin was somewhat baffled, ¡°That¡¯s not right, you haven¡¯t done it on your own, have you? Although¡ you have been learning with me for a while, right? You¡¯ve done no more than three or five cases altogether, how did you learn?¡±
Chen Cang pondered for a moment, ¡°I think it must be because Boss Zhang teaches well, and I learn quickly.¡±
With the statement that he taught well, Zhang Zhixin waspletely lost for words.
Although it sounded pleasing, something felt off. Do I have a clue about my own level of expertise?
In any case, as long as there were noplications, that was fine, but he would need to checkter how Chen Cang managed to charm one million out of the procedure!
Back in his office, Zhang Zhixin was still puzzled, so he leaned in eagerly, ¡°Chen, you have to teach me!¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, ¡°What?¡±
Zhang Zhixin gave a fawning smile, ¡°Stop pretending, just tell me, how did you do it? 100 million for a breast job, my goodness, that¡¯s more than I make from ten! Did I used to charge too little?¡±
Chen Cang gave a slight smile, ¡°The surgery fee is 10 million, the rest, 90 million, is mine, so don¡¯t even think about it.¡±
Zhang Zhixin nodded eagerly, ¡°Yes, yes, keeping business and personal separate, I understand that, but¡ you must teach me, how to deal with wealthy women? I feel I¡¯mcking in that area!¡±
Chen Cang looked at him stunned for a moment before speaking earnestly, ¡°Boss Zhang, that¡¯s not right. We make our living with skills, not by deceiving people.¡±
¡°You¡¯ll understand why I charge 150,000 when you see Fu Yn¡¯s results. Oh, and here¡¯s the photo from before the surgery, go take a look.¡±
Zhang Zhixin, hearing this, took the photo and had a look, hmm, a ssic case of hypomastia, and rather a severe one. Even with cosmetic treatment, it would be challenging¡
Moreover¡ even with surgery, the results wouldn¡¯t be very noticeable.
After some thought, he decided to go up and see Fu Yn for himself.
After knocking and entering, Zhang Zhixin nodded to exin his visit, ¡°I was at the hospital today, didn¡¯t manage toe over, this¡ Yn, let me see how you¡¯re doing.¡±
Fu Yn nodded, unashamed, slowly unfastening the dressing on her chest.
To be honest, even for Zhang Zhixin, who was experienced and specialized in this field, he was taken aback upon seeing Fu Yn¡¯s results!
So beautiful!
So exquisite!
So natural and delicate.
Although it was right after surgery, this kind of naturally perfect look certainly wasn¡¯t something the average person could achieve.N?v(el)B\\jnn
And the symmetry of both sides, the handling of details, the steadiness of the position, the proportioning of the design¡
The more Zhang Zhixin looked, the more amazed he was, the more he felt awed and humbled!
¡
As he left, Zhang Zhixin sighed deeply.
He finally understood why Chen Cang dared to charge a million for the surgery.
Zhang Zhixin was a professional himself, and well aware of the difficulties of surgery. To achieve what Chen Cang managed, you¡¯d need the experience of thousands of surgeries; otherwise, you were basically dreaming!
With such surgical oues, he would also dare to charge a million if it were his own work.
But the crux of the matter was that he himself couldn¡¯t produce such results for a million-dor makeover.
That was the most important point.
This was the difference!
Reflecting on this, Zhang Zhixin couldn¡¯t help but sigh, beginning to doubt his life choices.
Both just humans, both surgeons by training, yet why is there such a vast gap between people?
However, this self-doubt was quickly dispelled after Chen Cang treated him to several skewers of kidneys, chives, and oysters.
Actually, following Chen Cang and being a salted fish wasn¡¯t so bad¡
¡°Ah! Boss, bring another two tes of kidneys!¡±

Chapter 192: Chapter 193: Such High Pretentiousness! (Please Subscribe!)
¡°`
On his way home that evening, Chen Cang suddenly felt as if everything around him was dreamlike and illusory. He had never imagined that casually enhancing someone¡¯s chest would allow him to achieve his life¡¯s first milestone of wealth: the millionaire level!
It seems that the ancients did not deceive me, ¡°A woman at twenty is like gold bricks, a woman at thirty bestows an empire.¡±
Chen Cang wondered if he should seek out someone three thousand years his senior, for after all¡¡±A woman over three thousand ascends to the ranks of the immortals.¡±
The next morning, Chen Cang asked Li Baoshan for leave because he intended to find Professor Meng Xi, who was said to hail from the mysterious Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden.
The First Hospital of Dongda University was not far from the Provincial Second Hospital. Chen Cang went there early, as it was akin to seeking guidance and mentorship; thus, it was better to arrive earlier.
By the time Chen Cang reached the cardiovascr surgery department of the First Hospital of Dongda University, it was only twenty past seven. He wandered the corridor, holding the signed approval form in his hand.
The hospital corridor disyed a staff list, and Chen Cang saw Meng Xi¡¯s name ranked third.
The first name was Xia Gaofeng, the chief director of cardiovascr surgery, and the second was Zhou Qiwen, the deputy director.
Reading this staff wall, Chen Cang gained a general understanding of the cardiovascr surgery department at Dongda Hospital.
This was a department with historical depth and very strongprehensive capabilities. It had a clear hierarchical structure of old, middle-aged, and young generations, and a proper ratio of medical to nursing staff.
The First Hospital of Dongda University ranked among the top three hospitals in Dongyang Province for itsprehensive strength. Not that it wasn¡¯t as good as Provincial People¡¯s Hospital or Dongda Second Hospital, but the rankings changed yearly, so no one could consistently im the top spot. Inparison, Chen Cang still thought the Provincial Second Hospital was awesome. No matter which rankings came out each year, the Provincial Second Hospital was always securely in the tenth position, without a trace of ambiguity.
The Hospital affiliated with Traditional Chinese Medicine University, ranking eleventh, could never catch up to Provincial Second Hospital, and each year thetter couldn¡¯t overtake the city¡¯s People¡¯s Hospital, which was perennially ninth. Hence, their positions remained as stable as Mount Tai.
At half past seven, apanied by the nearly sixty-year-old Xia Gaofeng striding into the office, the shift handover officially began.
Chen Cang, who was eavesdropping from outside, was taken aback!
Impressive!
They¡¯re using Engligh during the handover?
This disy of professionalism momentarily stunned Chen Cang; they were actually using English for the shift handover!
Very high-end, indeed.
In fact, this was not umon in the medicalmunity. Chen Cang had been to many hospitals where English was used for the shift handover, but it was usually just a set phrase that could be memorized.
But inside, it was not the case!
The handover was conducted entirely in English, and this garnered Chen Cang¡¯s profound respect.
These were experts¡
The handoversted for over ten minutes, giving everyone some understanding of the patients¡¯ conditions from the previous night. They then discussed the cases and a doctor reported on a new surgical approach for aortic dissection from a paper published in the New Ennd Journal of Medicine.
The entire shift handover and reporting process was in English, and to be honest, it deeply impressed Chen Cang.
This would be overwhelming for an average doctor, let alone adapting to this rhythm and level!
No wonder the First Hospital of Dongda University now requires doctors to have a PhD as a minimum qualification and gives priority to overseas graduates. It¡¯s not to disparage other schools, but if you came to this hospital, you might not be able to keep up.
At this time, several men and women about Chen Cang¡¯s age stood at the door, all wearing whiteb coats of the First Hospital of Dongda University. They were likely research and residency students from the hospital.
In groups, they discussed what was happening inside, not showing much curiosity towards Chen Cang, who stood to one side. This was the time when graduate students started their term, and those who came here were mainly looking for their mentors. Everyone was used to it by now.
At eight o¡¯clock, the office door opened and nurses poured out. Chen Cang stepped back to keep a distance.
After everyone had left, Chen Cang entered the office.
ncing around the room, his gaze immediately locked onto a woman.
Meng Xi.
¡°`
¡°`
There was no mistake, even dressed in a professional whiteb coat, she stood out in the crowd.
The first impression Chen Cang had should have been that of a clean-cut, strong-willed woman.
Chen Cang took a deep breath and walked forward, havinge all this way, why be nervous?
Just as he approached, Chen Cang nodded slightly and bowed, ¡°Good morning, Professor Meng, I¡¯m Chen Cang, this year¡¯s research student, and I would like to be your student.¡±
As soon as Chen Cang spoke, the room suddenly fell silent¡
Chen Cang¡¯s heart skipped a beat.
What had happened?
Why had everything gone quiet?
Chen Cang raised his head slightly and saw Meng Xi put down the things she was holding.
Meng Xi looked Chen Cang over and said indifferently, ¡°Please, have a seat.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Thank you, teacher.¡±
After taking his seat respectfully, Chen Cang felt like he was sitting on pins and needles in the quiet office.
This period of time, since June, many students hade to seek out Meng Xi, in an endless stream, but as they came and went, gradually there were not many people left.
The doctors in the department suddenly saw someone who was unafraid to die, still full of interest, looking forward to being able to spar a few more rounds under Professor Meng.
On Monday morning, the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery traditionally did not schedule surgeries, except for emergencies. After a weekend, everyone needed to organize some patient records and materials, and surgeries would gradually begin to be scheduled in the afternoon.
Meng Xi had realized something during this time: if she did not take on any students herself, she would definitely be assigned one in the end, that was certain.
Rather than that, it would be better to choose a student she found rtively pleasing to the eye, someone she could work withfortably.
When Chen Cang came to greet her, Meng Xi nodded to herself internally; he was a sunny and handsome young man who approached her openly, and most importantly, she had seen him standing at the door before even arriving at her office, havinge almost an hour early.
Meng Xi was a person with a strong sense of time, very self-disciplined, strict with herself, and would never put off today¡¯s work until tomorrow.
Chen Cang¡¯s early arrival today had made a good impression on Meng Xi, and coupled with his pleasant demeanor, overall, he had a bonus pointpared to others.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Meng Xi smiled slightly, ¡°You don¡¯t need to be so nervous, how old are you this year?¡±
Chen Cang answered honestly, ¡°Twenty-seven.¡±
Meng Xi nodded thoughtfully, ¡°At twenty-seven, you started working and then became a graduate student, you have work experience, right?¡±
Chen Cang hummed in acknowledgment, ¡°After graduating, I worked in the emergency department at the provincial hospital for almost three years.¡±
Hearing the whole sentence, Meng Xi nodded, ¡°How is your English?¡±
She asked not only because she expected her students to have a high level of English proficiency but also to assess Chen Cang¡¯s learning ability¡ªfew people who start working are still willing to learn English afterwards.
And with medical frontiers generally published in English journals, it was essential to use English as anguage tool.
Meng Xi wanted to find out whether Chen Cang¡¯s learning had ever stopped.
This question was very important.
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Not bad.¡±
At that, Meng Xi couldn¡¯t help butugh.

Coming to the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery was something Qian Lin was reluctant to do. Who knows why his uncle insisted that he seek mentorship from the she-devil!
Everyone knows that Meng Xi is a typical sadomasochist!
Being her student, Qian Lin really didn¡¯t know how long his body, weighing over 190 pounds, could hold up.
Others lose weight studying medicine, while he gains it!
He gained more than twenty pounds after getting into a graduate program¡ªwho was there to reason with?
If it weren¡¯t for his total score of 410, which really left others speechless, his uncle would definitely think he wasn¡¯t studying properly, secretlyzing around and getting fat!
Qian Lin stood outside the door of the cardiothoracic surgery office, feeling anxious. He was an undergraduate at Dongyang Medical University and interned at this hospital¡ªhe knew this ce like the back of his hand!
During his internship, he had the luck of rotating into the cardiothoracic surgery department and was assigned to Meng Xi. From that day until the end of the second month, Qian Lin lost more than twenty pounds. If it hadn¡¯t been for getting into a graduate program, he would have had a hard time returning to his peak condition.
Thinking of Meng Xi¡¯s chillingugh sent shivers down Qian Lin¡¯s spine¡
He didn¡¯t know whether his uncle was crazy or what, but he insisted on letting Qian Lin try to be Meng Xi¡¯s student.
But, although it was tiring, he did learn a lot quickly. His 410 point score for the graduate entrance exam couldn¡¯t have been achieved without the strong support of an 86 in English, all thanks to the she-devil Meng Xi.
Qian Lin took a deep breath, steadied his spirit, and with a tragic resolve of heading to the execution ground, he pushed the door open!
Once inside, he wondered why the air around him seemed to have frozen.
Many doctors weren¡¯t working and were staring at¡ what Meng Xi was watching?
Qian Lin paused, sighed, and felt he should report to his deputy dean uncle that the cardiothoracic surgeons weren¡¯t working properly during office hours and were watching Meng Xi instead.
They should transfer Meng Xi away so she wouldn¡¯t affect everyone¡¯s work efficiency.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Right!
Qian Lin believed it was all Meng Xi¡¯s fault. After all, everyone here was brought up by their own parents, so just because you¡¯re good-looking, you think you¡¯re in the right?
If you looked like me, would anyone be in the mood to watch you?
Thinking this, Qian Lin¡¯s resentment towards Meng Xi grew even greater: detrimental to the perfect construction of the department¡¯s spirit!
However, as Qian Lin was preparing to continue walking, he suddenly halted the foot he had lifted and put it back down, as he noticed a man sitting in front of Meng Xi!
Qian Lin immediately melted back into the crowd of white coats and asked a graduate student next to him, ¡°Senior, who is that guy?¡±
The man looked at Chen Cang with respect and said, ¡°He¡¯s here to get a signature from Teacher Meng, looking for Teacher Meng to be his graduate supervisor!¡±
Upon hearing this!
Qian Lin felt his heart trembling with excitement, causing his fleshy body to resonate!
Awesome!
Brother, you must be an angel sent by God to rescue a wretch like Qian from the direst straits.
You must go through Meng¡¯s three questions!
Hang in there!
Qian here is cheering for you!
¡
¡
When Meng Xi heard Chen Cang say his English was passable, he smiled, nodded, and asked, ¡°You heard the shift handover just now, didn¡¯t you? We admitted a few patientsst night, which bed had an adverse reaction, how was it treated, and then what was shared after the handover?¡±
At Meng Xi¡¯s first question!
Qian Lin almost jumped up!
You schemer, Meng Xi!
Such a tricky first question, you¡¯re definitely doing this on purpose! It¡¯s just a grad school exam, and you¡¯re making someone trante SCI papers? Has your conscience been devoured by your chest?
Thinking this, Qian Lin cynically stared at Meng Xi, yet didn¡¯t dare to look too conspicuously, in case the demoness noticed and scrapped his days off. After all, this female demon had been eyeing him for a long time, and the way she looked at him was like¡ a ravenous tiger! Pulling him to work all day long; damn it, I, Qian Lin, can¡¯t withstand such treatment, even if I weighed three or five hundred pounds!
Having this thought, Qian Lin shrank his head back and inwardly cheered for Chen Cang, fearing that once he fell into the demonic clutches, the next three years would be like the deluxe package of eighteen levels of hell.
Not just Qian Lin, even the surrounding doctors felt Meng Xi was being a bit hard on Chen Cang. Those capable of answering such a question either had been in their own department for more than half a year or had overseas experience like studying aboard.
Another budding flower about to be crushed by Director Meng¡
Chen Cang took a moment to recall: ¡°Last night, bed number 12 suddenly developed low cardiac output syndrome at 3 a.m., apanied by persistent low blood pressure, narrowed pulse pressure, signs of insufficient tissue perfusion, and oliguria. Doctor He was on callst night, suspected left ventricr underload due to postoperative low-level urination, and finally administered diuretic and vasodtors along with volume repletion therapy. By 5 a.m., the patient¡¯s condition had stabilized, and everything returned to normal!¡±
No sooner had Chen Cang finished speaking!
All the doctors on the scene were stunned!
This kid, impressive, huh?
Standing in the back, Qian Lin stamped his foot in excitement, nearly moved to tears: ¡°Awesome! Brother, you¡¯re really something, truly my savior, Qian Lin. I¡¯ll bepletely open with you in the days toe!¡±
The graduate students were dumbfounded, even feeling ashamed¡
Is this guy really just an undergraduate?
His English level is better than ours by three small mother cows¡
However, at this moment, Chen Cang continued:
¡°The paper that was shared earlier, if I¡¯m not mistaken, should be about a new type of surgical treatment n for heart and major blood vessel aortic dissection and regarding the prevention of intraoperativeplications. It discussed Professor Morel-Camille¡¯s findings based on over 160 aortic dissection patients¡ The results showed p
Chen Cang¡¯s words truly impressed everyone present.
To be honest, everybody here has a doctoral degree from prestigious schools, including some overseas talents. It¡¯s one thing for us to understand it, but Chen Cang is just a student about to enter grad school. Isn¡¯t his performance incredibly outstanding?
Qian Lin clenched his fists, thinking, Meng Xi, if you don¡¯t ept this guy today, even if I served you, I would not be convinced¡
This young man is too excellent!
At this thought, Qian Lin couldn¡¯t help but p his hands and cheer: ¡°Well done! Impressive!¡±
A graduate student brother beside him was taken aback, looked at Qian Lin, and asked softly, ¡°He got everything right? Is he that amazing?¡±
Qian Lin was stunned: ¡°How would I know, I didn¡¯t understand a word! But judging by his confidence, he must have nailed it!¡±
Indeed, he didn¡¯t understand, but that didn¡¯t stop him from apuding!
The few graduate students were left speechless and aghast.
But although Meng Xi¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change, she couldn¡¯t help feeling delighted inside. Not bad, this kid!

Chapter 194: Chapter 195: Banana Mud Seat Man PK (Extra chapter for monthly votes +1!)
Chen Cang finally noticed some sounds around him and let out a sigh.
¡°What kind of department is this?¡±
Emergency at Provincial Hospital No. 2 was better, listening to Qian¡¯er¡¯s bragging every day, hearing the little brown-noser shouting ¡°666¡±, directing Wang Yong to write medical records¡ªthat¡¯s the kind of work environment a doctor should have.
Look at them here, each one¡
Meng Xi nodded, ¡°Hmm, not bad.¡±
When Qian Lin heard this, he immediately took a deep breath. This she-devil actually praised someone?
Rare indeed.
Every time he worked overtime, the most he got was, ¡°How can you be so dumb?¡±
That phrase lingered in Qian Lin¡¯s ears for several months, giving him a sense of defeat!
It wasn¡¯t until the postgraduate entrance exam results came out, and he ranked first in the medical field, that this sense of defeat gradually faded.
He really hadn¡¯t expected the she-devil Meng to praise someone!N?v(el)B\\jnn
The doctors around were all exchanging nces; indeed, it was rare to see Director Meng praise someone. This situation was truly unusual.
But this young man was really impressive; his English listening skills were definitely top-notch.
¡°You¡¯ve been working clinically for three years now, do you know all the basic procedures?¡± Meng Xi actually already felt very satisfied with Chen Cang. Based on his English proficiency alone, to be honest, there were not many people who could achieve that.
Just now in the paper, there were many professional terms, some of which were even rare words in the surgical field. With Chen Cang¡¯s trantion, Meng Xi could assess many things, mainly the attitude towards academic papers and that unceasing learning attitude.
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°I know a little about basic clinical operations. But I haven¡¯t dealt with cardiothoracic surgery.¡±
Meng Xi nodded, ¡°Oh¡ Do you know how to do vascr suturing?¡±
Chen Cang originally thought he should give an honest answer, that he was quite proficient, but considering that this was a cardiothoracic surgery department, an area constantly dealing with blood vessels, he still felt he should be conservative: ¡°Hmm, I know a bit.¡±
Meng Xi looked up and nced at the doctors around her. The doctors immediately turned their heads and started scribbling in their medical records.
Meng Xi pointed to a man and said, ¡°Doctor Ge, go and get some models and suture materials.¡±
The man known as Doctor Ge quickly got up, ¡°Okay, Director Meng.¡±
Meng Xi, only thirty, was already an associate director, and the cardiothoracic surgery department was divided into groups. There were three groups, each led by a team leader, and Meng Xi was one of them. The three team leaders took turns managing the groups. In short, Meng Xi was the superior doctor to all of them, not to mention her rank, and she was also highly capable.
Hence, everyone respected this ¡®young Director Meng¡¯, who was even younger than some of them.
Before long, Ge Huai came in with suture materials and models. These weremon practice tools in surgery, mainly used for practicing the vascr suturing technique, an essential skill in cardiothoracic surgery¡ªthe most basic and most important.
So, whenever there was a free moment, everyone would grab them and stitch a few sutures.
Xia Gaofeng also regrly held these small-scale suturingpetitions in the department, evaluating the speed and density of the sutures.
Meng Xi said to Chen Cang, ¡°Come on, suture this and let me see. Thirty stitches, I want to see how long it takes you.¡±
These were two model segments mimicking the width of the aorta.
After finishing, Meng Xi nced thoughtfully at Ge Huai and smiled, ¡°Doctor Ge, why don¡¯t youpete with this young doctor and see who¡¯s faster?¡±
As soon as she said this, the others looked at Chen Cang with a somewhat teasing look.
Doctor Ge was young, only thirty-five, in his prime, and often took first ce in the department¡¯s vascr suturingpetitions, highly regarded by Xia Gaofeng.
Just as Ge Huai hesitated, Xia Gaofeng suddenly walked in, looking with interest at the scene.
He chuckled, ¡°Little Ge, why don¡¯t you practice with the young doctor?¡±
At that moment, Chen Cang suddenly heard the system notification sound!
[Ding! PK task activated, defeat Ge Huai to randomly obtain an item or a Skill Book from Ge Huai!]
Chen Cang chose to ept!
PK task.
It looked thrilling.
Chen Cang knew he was fast, but he had neverpared with other men to see who was faster!
Therefore, Chen Cang looked up and nced at the somewhat lean Ge Huai, filled with intense interest.
At this, once thepetition was mentioned, everyone became excited.
Qian Lin was like a fat cat, squeezing through the crowd, finally making it into the mix.
He looked at Chen Cang with excitement, muttering to himself, ¡°Come on, brother,e on, my happiness depends on you.¡±
Xia Gaofeng walked over slowly, sizing up Chen Cang, ¡°Young man, give it a try, there¡¯s no shame in losing, the person before you is the core strength of our department.¡±
After speaking, he looked at Ge Huai, ¡°Ge Huai, show this young man what you¡¯ve got, give him some motivation!¡±
Surgery is not the same as internal medicine.
Just like martial arts training, PKs aremon, ranging frompeting over how many surgical knots one can tie within a minute to simting special surgical skillsparisons are everywhere.
And this kind ofpetition is positive, constantly breaking through one¡¯s own limits throughparison and reaching new heights.
That is the ultimate goal!
Xia Gaofeng didn¡¯t want to embarrass Chen Cang; his main intention was to show Chen Cang the direction to work hard toward.
Amid the talk, Xia Gaofeng smiled, ¡°Come on, who¡¯s going to keep time? I¡¯ll count down from 3-2-1, start!¡±
At this moment, Xia Gaofeng¡¯s graduate student hurried over with a phone, ¡°I¡¯ll keep time!¡±
Chen Cang and Ge Huai exchanged a light smile, then slowly picked up the needle holders.
The graduate student behind them then began to say, ¡°Doctor Ge, remember to break the record, yeah!¡±
Ge Huai held the record for being the fastest in the department, with a record of 30 stitches in 2 minutes and 50 seconds.
Ge Huai smiled and picked up the needle holder, ready to teach this youngster a lesson.
There actually wasn¡¯t any suspense in the oue of thispetition, one was the new force of Dongda First Hospital¡¯s Cardiothoracic Surgery, the fastest at suturing, and the other was an emergency doctor just getting ready to be a graduate student.
Compared to the result of thepetition, everyone was more focused on whether Ge Huai could break his record.
Meanwhile, Meng Xi and Xia Gaofeng observed Chen Cang holding the needle holder in his hands, thoughtful; those hands¡ so steady!
Ordinary people might not notice these details, but Meng Xi knew just how important a pair of hands, steady as Mount Tai, was to a surgeon.
With a thoughtful look, Xia Gaofeng nced at Chen Cang, ¡°3¡ª2¡ª1, start!¡±
No sooner had he spoken than Chen Cang hesitated slightly.
Because Director Xia¡¯s voice in his ear almost startled him into trembling hands.
With that momentary hesitation, Ge Huai had already started suturing at high speed!
Seeing this, Chen Cang began his operation, calm and unhurried.
If the bigwigs from Second Provincial Hospital were here, they would surely sigh and say, ¡°Ah, there goes Chen Cang, humbling others again.¡±

Chapter 195: Chapter 196: The Thought Alone is Thrilling (Second Update for 1000+ Monthly Tickets)
Thepetition was tense!
It was fierce!
Thepetition touched everyone¡¯s heart¡n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qian Lin looked eagerly at Chen Cang, silently cheering him on in his mind. Brother, your performance directly concerns Qian someone¡¯s future and happiness. You¡¯re not fighting alone!
And everyone else was hoping Ge Huai could break the record!
Although it wasn¡¯t a big deal, it was still a fun thing.
Time ticked by, second by second.
Everyone watched the clock nervously: ¡°It¡¯s broken! It¡¯s broken!¡±
¡°Come on, Teacher Ge! It¡¯s going to break!¡±
¡°The record is broken!¡±
¡°Damn! Teacher Ge is awesome! He¡¯s refreshed his personal record again, 2 minutes 46 seconds! Awesome!¡±
¡°Huh?¡±
¡°Hey, hey, hey, why are you all silent? Teacher Ge broke the record!¡± The timer looked bewilderedly at everyone.
Everyone was staring at Chen Cang with their mouths agape, their eyes filled with disbelief!
¡°This¡ this is too quick!¡±
¡°Right?! I just nced and he had sewn a few stitches, that speed is just terrifying¡¡±
¡°He¡¯s even faster than our Teacher Ge!¡±
¡°Yes, how long did it take?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t know¡ probably just over two minutes?¡±
¡°Didn¡¯t you see? Almost half a minute after he finished, Teacher Ge had justpleted the suture!¡±
¡
¡
All the doctors present were dumbfounded.
Everyone originally thought that Doctor Ge Huai would add another one to his ¡®banana mud seat human skin series¡¯ with Chen Cang.
But unexpectedly¡ this youngster was so fast!
Thinking back to the suturing scene just now, many doctors found it hard to believe, doubting their own eyes.
Too fast!
So young and yet so fast, what woulde next?
With this in mind, many male doctors felt a little downhearted. ¡°The youth to be feared, the new waves of the Yangtze River pushing the old waves, each generation is faster than thest!¡±
While the female doctors were all filled with regret, letting out a deep sigh, too fast¡
Qian Lin could say he watched Chen Cang from the beginning to the end!
He was the one with the most right to speak. Looking at Chen Cang¡¯s operation, Qian Lin just wanted to ask Chen Cang one question, brother, how many years have you been single?
I, Qian someone, always thought that these hands of mine were marvelous, but I didn¡¯t expect yours to be even sharper!
Truly impressive!
Meng Xi watched Chen Cang¡¯s hands for a long time without speaking, his eyes full ofplexity. Suddenly, he couldn¡¯t help but swallow saliva!
What amazing hands!
From the beginning, Meng Xi had felt it, enduring and stable, his hands not trembling at all when holding the needle holder, even when startled by Director Xia, his hands were still undisturbed.
Steady and enduring!
That¡¯s a basic quality that a surgeon must have.
And following the suturing, Meng Xi was awestruck. What flexible hands, watching Chen Cang¡¯s fingers flipping, continuously suturing and hooking, suturing, hooking, knotting¡ this series of motions were smooth and powerful, those slender fingers, that astonishing frequency, thoseplex angles¡
¡°Gulp!¡± Meng Xi couldn¡¯t help but swallow another gulp of saliva!
What a terrifying pair of hands!
Looking at Chen Cang again, Meng Xi¡¯s eyes were fixed on Chen Cang¡¯s hands resting on his thighs, and he found it difficult to let go.
These were a surgeon¡¯s hands!
With this thought, Meng Xi felt a me called desire flickering in his eyes.
Yes!
This was what he wanted!
And finally, he had waited until the end.
Xia Gaofeng took a deep breath and finally exhaled¡
This kid, he¡¯s gone easy on us!
That¡¯s right.
Xia Gaofeng could tell in an instant that Chen Cang¡¯s initial suturing speed was very fast. After maintaining it for a while, he clearly looked up at Ge Huai and then deliberately slowed down.
Even so, he still finished a full half-minute ahead of Ge Huai.
He really is impressive!
But why did this kid pause at the beginning?
Was it on purpose, to let Ge Huai catch up?
With this thought, Xia Gaofeng couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Kid, why did you pause at the beginning?¡±
Chen Cang was stunned!
Tsk! You cunning old fox, you have the nerve to ask? We agreed on a fairpetition¡ You cheated, who knew you would shout so loudly!
Though that¡¯s what he thought, Chen Cang scratched his head and gave an embarrassed smile, ¡°I¡ I was startled by the director.¡±
As soon as he said this, everyone burst outughing.
Xia Gaofeng¡¯s old face flushed with embarrassment, and he smiled awkwardly, ¡°Young man, you did well, your quick suturing is really good!¡±
After saying that, Xia Gaofeng took the two molds and began to examine them.
After all, suturing is not just about speed; the quality of the suture is even more important.
Blindly chasing speed is definitely not a habit of a mature surgeon.
Speed must be built upon stability.
He didn¡¯t look at Chen Cang¡¯s first but looked at Ge Huai¡¯s. After checking, he smiled and said, ¡°Ge Huai, not bad, your suturing density and speed have significantly improved. Very impressive indeed.¡±
Originally very disappointed, Ge Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, being upstaged by such a young man was not going to make anyone happy!
¡°Thank you, Director, I will continue to work hard!¡±
It was then that Xia Gaofeng said thoughtfully, ¡°Alright, everyone hurry up and get back to work. Young man, you need to take your suturing more seriously from now on.¡±
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that Chen Cang¡¯s suturing was too fast, overlooking the quality of the sutures.
Ge Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief!
Ge Huai is very ambitious.
Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t keep improving his suturing skills to maintain his position as the number one in the department. A small incident can reveal a lot about a person¡¯s character.
At this moment, Xia Gaofeng looked meaningfully at Meng Xi and passed him the mold, ¡°This is the young man¡¯s; take a look.¡±
Meng Xi nodded; he had noticed Chen Cang¡¯s suturing was very meticulous.
Although the director had just said those words, it was only after seeing Ge Huai¡¯s reaction that he truly understood.
Ge Huai took winning and losing too seriously, so being struck down by Chen Cang might affect his work and mood, which is not conducive to his growth.
That¡¯s why Xia Gaofeng had said what he did.
Xia Gaofeng looked at Meng Xi thoughtfully and nodded, ¡°He¡¯s a very promising young man, Meng Xi; you should really consider him.¡±
After finishing his words, Xia Gaofeng gave Chen Cang a thumbs up and whispered, ¡°Young man, impressive!¡±
[Ding! PK victory, randomly obtain Ge Huai¡ Ding! Dropped 5 favorability points from Meng Xi.]
[Ding! Obtained +5 favorability points from Meng Xi!]
Chen Cang was startled!
Holy cow?
Can it really work like this?
Favorability points can drop from a PK; this is a bit¡
Chen Cang thought of something terrifying.
What if, in a pinnacle PK showdown with some vile viin, he identally defeats the other party, and suddenly gains¡ +90 favorability points from the viin¡¯s wife?
That would be¡ quite thrilling, wouldn¡¯t it?
Defeating not only the opponent¡¯s body but also shattering the viin¡¯s spirit¡
Just thinking about it feels so exhrating¡
¡
Ps: Just five updates for today, don¡¯t miss me.
Chapter 196: 197: Special Medical Record! (Seeking monthly ticket)
Chapter 196: Chapter 197: Special Medical Record! (Seeking monthly ticket)
Chen Cang could never have imagined that even goodwill points could drop; it seems PK really is the prime choice for reaching the pinnacle of life.
At this moment, Chen Cang noticed that Teacher Meng¡¯s gaze toward him had be a bit softer and more longing¡
Wait a minute!
Chen Cang mmed on the brakes!
He actually saw longing in Teacher Meng Xi¡¯s eyes???
Chen Cang paused, took a deep breath, and quickly shook his head, forcing himself to calm down; after all, this was not like being at home watching ¡°tutor/teacher series¡± movies¡ªhow could he entertain such wicked thoughts.
Meng Xi looked at the aorta mold meticulously sutured in her hand and also felt a little sentimental; this young man really had talent.
At this thought, Meng Xi didn¡¯t even realize that her heart had grown a few degrees warmer toward Chen Cang.
Even the way she looked at Chen Cang had softened.
[Meng Xi, a female doctor pursuing perfection and self-discipline, goodwill points: 5.]
After careful analysis, Chen Cang concluded that it must be an adverse reaction from the [goodwill points +5], and he was probably overthinking it.
Ge Huai also finally breathed a sigh of relief; if Chen Cang had really sutured better and faster than him, he would definitely have some thoughts inside, not jealousy, but a sense of defeat.
Jealousy mainly arises from the same tform and level, while a sense of defeates from dimensional strike!
While others perform a downgrade attack, Chen Cang¡¯s is an upgrade attack!
Chen Cang is just a young man about to take the postgraduate entrance exam, whereas Ge Huai is a senior attending physician who has been involved in cardiac surgery for a long time.
If Zhang Zhixin saw this scene, he would definitely tweet in Ge Huai¡¯s face, ¡°I¡¯m nearly forty and Tian Tian get hit by this guy, what¡¯s this got to do with you.¡±
Xia Gaofeng suddenly felt some regret; if only he had called the research department earlier to secure a spot for himself!
After all, seeing such an outstanding young man, Xia Gaofeng really developed a fondness for talent!
They say that for every great racehorse, there is a great horseman, but who could resist a steed like Chen Cang? You see, even Meng Xi, who is so proud, wants to ride¡ no, wants him!
At Dongyang Medical University, the selection of postgraduate mentors is quite strict; generally, it requires an associate senior professional title or above, more than three core journal papers in the recent three years, and at least one project at the provincial or national level within three years to be eligible for the selection of mentor qualifications.
There is only an upper age limit, not a lower one, but¡ to be a mentor at thirty like Meng Xi is extraordinarily rare.
Those over 57 years old are not considered, as Dongyang Medical University sets an upper limit and does not allow them to mentor postgraduates. After all, it takes students three years to graduate, and if you retire before they do, it¡¯s not fair to the students.
Of course, these conditions do not apply to everyone; many can enjoy special considerations, such as provincial or national-level distinguished doctors, Yangtze River Schrs, and so on¡
Xia Gaofeng himself is a distinguished provincial doctor, receives a special allowance from the State Council, but with age, his energy is not what it was, and mentoring postgraduates, often having to apply for projects and such, is tiring, so he did not sign up.
Now, watching Chen Cang, he really felt some regret!
Meng Xi looked at Chen Cang, pondered for a moment, and made a decision, to take him, right!
Hmm!
A very nice young man, with good overall conditions, and at this time, Meng Xi decided in her heart to sign for Chen Cang.
¡°Doctor Ge, Bed 51 suddenly started convulsing!¡±
With an urgent summonsing from the nurses¡¯ station, Meng Xi, who was about to speak, hesitated briefly and quickly got up to follow Ge Huai out.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Cang was momentarily stunned.
How could there be convulsing patients in cardiac surgery?
Xia Gaofeng looked down at Chen Cang, ¡°Young man, your teacher has gone to see the patient, aren¡¯t you going to follow and have a look?¡±
Chen Cang hurriedly stood up, ¡°Thank you, Director.¡±
Having said that, he followed them out.
After Xia Gaofeng had spoken, he turned around and, seeing the rotating trainees and postgraduate students in the department, couldn¡¯t help but sigh. These students¡¯ minds weren¡¯t on learning, ignoring such a good learning opportunity. In their own student days, they would have rushed out to see a special case already.
Now that the learning conditions have improved and the channels of study have broadened, providing students with more opportunities to practice, but still¡
Xia Gaofeng, watching a few students either tearing upb reports or sitting around chatting, couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Stop tearing upb reports. Go and observe patients, study the diseases more. This might be a special case that you do not get to see very often. Don¡¯t just hang around the department without a clue, holding books and not wanting to do anything, just tearing upb reports all day long.¡±
A few postgraduate students awkwardly stood up, nodded reluctantly, shoving each other, dragging their feet as they followed them out.
Seeing this scene, Xia Gaofeng couldn¡¯t help but sigh again.
Ge Huai was a bit anxious, walking toward Bed 51. They were supposed to arrange surgery for the patient this afternoon, how could they suddenly start convulsing?
Thinking of this, Ge Huai was also full of confusion.
In fact, patients are like this, never ying by the rules, and even due to special circumstances, about one-third of clinical cases get their surgery dyed or postponed.
A perfectly arranged surgery can be suddenly cancelled upon finding abnormal fluctuations inboratory indicators because there are already various emergencies that can ur during surgery, and any abnormal indicator can increase the risk factors.
Chen Cang, following behind Meng Xi, noticed that this woman walked incredibly fast, with her long legs moving briskly. If he hadn¡¯t trained in emergency, he would have had trouble keeping up!
As she walked, Meng Xi asked, ¡°What¡¯s the patient¡¯s condition?¡±
Ge Huai, diligent and responsible in his work, was also very familiar with the patient¡¯s condition.
¡°The patient is male, Uyghur, 30 years old, repeating episodes of palpitations and chest oppression for four years, worsening over the past week, admitted to our hospital three days ago.¡±
¡°Four years ago, without any obvious cause, he experienced palpitations and ufortable chest oppression during moderate activities and exertion, apanied by weakness and sweating. The local People¡¯s Hospital diagnosed him with coronary heart disease, heart failure, and dted cardiomyopathy. Treatment alleviated the symptoms, but they worsened a week ago. After admission, cardiac color Doppler ultrasonography showed ergement of all cardiac chambers, weakened movement of the left ventricr wall, EF24%, and suspected dted cardiomyopathy.¡±
Meng Xi frowned slightly, ¡°The patient from Friday¡ Have you checked the physiological and biochemicalb indices?¡±
Ge Huai replied, ¡°The medical orders were ced on Friday; the results should be out. I haven¡¯t seen them yet; I¡¯ll get theb report.¡±
Having said this, Ge Huai hurried out the door.
¡°Go get me the patient¡¯s medical chart,¡± Meng Xi said to Chen Cang after a moment of contemtion.
Chen Cang nodded and immediately ran out.
Familiar with the terrain, not feeling like a stranger at all¡ªafter all, every hospital is more or less the same.

Chapter 197: Chapter 198: A Horse, A Sweat-Blood Treasure Horse! (Requesting Monthly Pass)
Chen Cang returned to the ward to find the patient had stopped seizing, suggesting that the convulsions were episodic.
Meng Xi took the medical record folder from Chen Cang and casually flipped through theb reports and imaging results.
Then, bending over, he said to the patient, ¡°I¡¯m going to examine you, lie t and keep your hip and knee joints extended.¡±
Meng Xi held the patient¡¯s ankle in his left hand and took out a pen from his pocket, using the blunt end to swiftly draw a light stroke from theteral ntar region forward to the base of the little toe, and then turned towards the side of the big toe.
The patient¡¯s big toe dorsiflexed and the other four toes spread apart in a fan shape.
Chen Cang gave a start ¨C a positive Babinski sign?
A slight smile appeared on Meng Xi¡¯s lips. Although he had not yet made a definite diagnosis, he already had a fairly good idea.
The patient seemed a bit anxious, ¡°Doctor¡ what¡¯s wrong with me? Why did my hands and feet suddenly start twitching?¡±
Meng Xi reassured, ¡°It¡¯s okay, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m waiting for Doctor Ge to bring theb report.¡±
Meng Xi could actually make a conclusion now, but to be on the safe side, he still wanted to wait for theb results toe out.
A group of graduate students in clinical training, dressed in white coats and holding notebooks, nervously entered the ward, also curious as to what kind of heart disease could cause convulsions?
After entering, they obediently lined up against the wall, leaving the aisle on both sides of the bed clear, fully aware that they wouldn¡¯t be able to help if the patient had anyplications¡ªthese spots near the bed and in the aisle were prime positions, reserved for the experts.
They were there just to quietly observe the experts in action!
Soon after, Ge Huai came running in with a long string ofb results, not even having had the chance to tear them apart.
¡°Director Meng, take a look, here are theb results.¡±
Meng Xi took theb results, scanning through them quickly, and rxed ¨C just as he had suspected.
Meng Xi asked Ge Huai, ¡°What medications have been administered these past few days?¡±
Ge Huai paused, slightly taken aback, ¡°Currently, we are mainly using digitalis, along with diuretics, to prevent heart failure.¡±
After hearing this, Meng Xi frowned and turned to ask, ¡°What were your treatment considerations after the patient was admitted to the ward?¡±
With Meng Xi¡¯s question, the atmosphere in the room suddenly grew serious!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Caught off guard by Meng Xi¡¯s question, Ge Huai was momentarily at a loss for words, ¡°The patient¡¯s ECG showed ST-segment prolongation, low T-waves and the echocardiogram clearly revealed an erged ventricr cavity, thickened septum, reduced pulsation, as well as mitral valve regurgitation and significant pericardial effusion. So, I considered primarily treating the heart condition since theb results weren¡¯t out at the time¡¡±
Before Ge Huai could finish exining, Meng Xi interjected, ¡°Now the results are here, take a look. What do you think is the situation?¡±
Ge Huai¡¯s face turned red; he had already understood on his way over, ¡°This is likely due to thebined effects of low calcium and low blood magnesium levels, which caused excitability-contraction coupling in the myocardial fibers, and the low calcium affecting the electrophysiological properties of cardiac muscle cells, inducing arrhythmia.¡±
¡°The patient has had long-term hypocalcemia, which should be the main cause of abnormal limb sensations or muscr cramps and even convulsions.¡±
The surrounding graduate students suddenly had an epiphany.
So that¡¯s how it is!
Withoutmenting, Meng Xi turned to Chen Cang, ¡°What should the normal blood calcium level be, and specifically, what is its use?¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback. You¡¯re making me show off again¡
My physiological and biochemical metrics are under the tutge of Professor Fang Yonglin; this is one of the only two perfect-level skills I possess!
Without any hesitation, Chen Cang blurted out, ¡°The normal blood calcium level in adults is 2.25~2.75 mmol/L. Calcium in the body has important functions: it is an essentialponent of bones and teeth. It also helps to maintain the normal function of nerves, muscles, and the myocardium, andstly, it is involved in blood coagtion.¡±
Meng Xi looked at Chen Cang askance, his face calm and somewhat surprised.
The surrounding graduate students were bbergasted ¨C had this big shot rehearsed beforehand?
Definitely!
Ever since you started your shift today, this is the third time you¡¯ve showed off.
There¡¯s a limit to everything¡ Aren¡¯t you going a bit too far?
You¡¯re making us graduates look like fools¡
You must have reviewed the materials or rehearsed in advance ¨C today looks like a staged y.
The students felt a twinge of emotion. Are you not considering our feelings at all in your showboating?
Memorizing the normal blood calcium levels while we¡¯re still memorizing routine blood tests ¨C are you already on to memorizing electrolyte values?
Memorizing indicators is one of the essential qualities required of clinical medical students, especially in emergency medicine, where one should have a good grasp ofmonb reports.
Meng Xi handed theb report to Chen Cang, ¡°Take a look. What information can you gather from theb report?¡±
Chen Cang casually reviewed theb report and immediately furrowed his brow slightly.
This might not be a simple heart condition.
Chen Cang looked up slightly, ¡°Professor Meng, this might be a case of hypoparathyroidism-induced cardiopathy!¡±
Upon hearing this, Meng Xi could not help but pause.
The surrounding group of students looked at each other bewildered, exchanging nces in confusion.
¡°What is this thing?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t look at me, how the hell should I know what this thing is!¡±
¡°I know about the parathyroid nds, and I know about heart disease, but why don¡¯t I recognize them when they¡¯re lumped together?¡±
¡°What are you staring at, staring at me is going to make me get it?¡±
After gazing for a long time, everyone reached a final consensus!
This guy is going to put on a bigger act than all of the first threebined!
Are we, a group of graduate students, really going to be upstaged by an undergraduate???
At this thought, everyone felt an overwhelming sense of loneliness and destion¡
When Ge Huai heard what Chen Cang had said, he suddenly recalled the term!
A very rare disease!
He hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly took over theb report, scrutinized it carefully, reflected for a while, and connected it with all the patient¡¯s symptoms. The more he looked, the clearer and more rming it became!
Finally, he had an epiphany!
Right!
Why hadn¡¯t he thought of it himself?
This kid is really impressive!
Meanwhile, Chen Cang was somewhat stunned; he noticed nobody was paying attention to him. Did he perhapsck an audience?
Shouldn¡¯t there be some voices of doubt?
I¡¯m putting on such an act; there should at least be someone for me to prove wrong.
After waiting a few seconds and seeing no one spoke, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help feeling disappointed.
This act, five out of ten¡ not passing!
Nevertheless, Chen Cang still felt they should finish speaking, ¡°The patient may have idiopathic hypoparathyroidism. This disease is rare, but usually sporadic and linked to immunity. ording to theboratory indicators, although the proportion of the patient¡¯s lymphocytes is normal, this ratio is very simr to that of patients with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism.¡±
¡°The patient¡¯s blood calcium is only 1.9, phosphorus elevated to 1.59, and blood serum immunoactive parathyroid hormone is virtually undetectable.¡±
¡°A reduction in the patient¡¯s PTH can affect myocardial contractility, and just as Professor Ge said, low blood calcium and magnesium affect myocardial fibre contraction. Therefore, I suspect it is hypoparathyroid heart disease.¡±
¡°When calcium is low, the excretion of sodium ions decreases, and the retention of water and sodium can increase the cardiac burden. The patient already has reduced renal function, so¡ looking at it this way, Professor Ge¡¯s treatment is not problematic.¡±
¡°However, if we were tobine it with some calcium supplementation, such as oral vitamin D3 or Rocaltrol, the effect might be even better, and it might even alleviate the heart failure!¡±
After Chen Cang had finished speaking in one breath, he couldn¡¯t help but sigh. Flexing without an audience to prove wrong is utterly meaningless¡
No sooner had Chen Cang finished speaking¡ª
Apuse broke out from outside the door.
¡°Good! Good! Good!¡±
Xia Gaofeng walked in excitedly, his eyes brimming with pleasure and joy. Indeed, a truly outstanding talent¡ªa one-in-a-million thoroughbred!
To be frank, it had been a long time since Xia Gaofeng had encountered such an insightful and capable student.
That wasn¡¯t an exaggeration at all.
Firstly, his practical skills were extremely strong, with a good foundation in suturing, and now his analysis of diseases, especially the analysis of physiological biochemicalboratory indicators, was thorough to the utmost extent.
These abilities, whenbined and analyzed, could fully reveal a person¡¯s clinical thinking and surgical talent!
At that thought, Xia Gaofeng watched Chen Cang with satisfaction: ¡°Not bad! Your analysis is quite reasoned!¡±
At Xia Gaofeng¡¯s level, many diseases are crystal clear to him, having seen too many, even a rare disease like hypoparathyroidism didn¡¯t seem so unusual.
But for Ge Huai, it might indeed be very rare.
What should one fear about diseases?
It¡¯s thebination that¡¯s frightening!
Once a bunch of diseases are stacked together, it bes very difficult to clearly discern the patient¡¯s real condition.
Yet Chen Cang was able to analyze hypoparathyroid heart disease from a cardiothoracicb report.
That was trulymendable!
s¡
The thought that such a student wasn¡¯t his filled him with pain.
Chapter 198: 199: Hidden Occupation, So Tempting! (Seeking monthly passes!)
Chapter 198: Chapter 199: Hidden upation, So Tempting! (Seeking monthly passes!)
A few students standing against the wall corner couldn¡¯t help but steady themselves on the wall, their eyes fixed intently on Chen Cang, then thought better of it and let go of the wall!
They don¡¯t even need the wall to stand, just respect you!
You frickin¡¯ show off, and you even got the department head to y your straight man!
Behind the door of the ward stood a little fatty of almost 200 pounds, who was Qian Lin. After much deliberation, he still didn¡¯t dare to enter, listening intently to what was happening inside and his heart was filled with excitement!
This brother is awesome!
Proficient innguage, math, and foreign affairs. (Language refers to foreignnguages, math refers to logic, chemistry, and mathematics, and foreign affairs to surgical operations.)
Impressive, impressive!
I, Qian, am finally not on the mind of this she-devil anymore. Peering through the crack of the door at Ge Huai¡¯s distraught face, Qian Lin couldn¡¯t help but breathe a sigh of relief. With a she-devil as a superior, if you¡¯re not subdued, who is?
With that thought, Qian Lin inevitably felt some sympathy for Chen Cang.
After all, a promising young man with a good head on his shoulders, but with faulty thinking, actually following the she-devil.
Thinking this, Qian Lin sighed and decided to wait a bit longer!
Wait for the she-devil to sign her name before leaving, then go and tell Uncle that Director Meng already has a student, and this person is especially awesome, even more capable than oneself.
At this moment, Meng Xi was moved, the capabilities of this student had seriously exceeded her expectations!
Even Meng Xi wondered if she had the skills like Chen Cang when she was younger?
At this time, Xia Gaofeng couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Little Meng, if you don¡¯t want to recruit students, then pass this young man to me!¡±
¡°I¡¯ll shamelessly ask the graduate department for an extra quota! Honestly, I haven¡¯t seen such an outstanding young person for a long time, with a boundless future. By the way, young man, what¡¯s your name?¡±
Chen Cang: ¡°Chen Cang, as in the vast vicissitudes of the ocean and the fields.¡±
Upon hearing this, Xia Gaofeng eximed, ¡°Good! Great name!¡±
The many resident doctors: What¡¯s so good about it!?
Xia Gaofeng continued, ¡°You are already working, right? At which hospital? Which department?¡±
Chen Cang: ¡°I¡¯m currently at the Provincial Second Hospital¡¯s Emergency Department.¡±
Xia Gaofeng was taken aback, ¡°Oh? The department where Director Li Baoshan is?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, it seemed that Director Li had a reputation in the province.
Xia Gaofeng nodded slightly: ¡°Not bad, not bad!¡±
[Ding! Xia Gaofeng¡¯s favorability +10.]
¡
¡
The patient¡¯s condition stabilized, and everybody then returned to the office.
Meng Xi looked at Chen Cang, although happy inside, she kept a calm expression: ¡°Why did you choose me?¡±
Chen Cang: ¡¡
In broad daylight, why on earth are you spouting nonsense as a teacher?
When did I hug you?
Even if I wanted to, I wouldn¡¯t dare!
Seeing Chen Cang not speaking, Meng Xi continued to ask, ¡°Why did you choose me as your teacher?¡±
Chen Cang finally understood and gave an awkwardugh, ¡°My research abilities are inadequate. I think one of the most important differences between graduate and undergraduate students is the gap in research capabilities. Graduate students should learn to research, to understand scientific research. I¡¯ve read your articles, Director Meng, and you¡¯re really amazing in this field; I think I can learn a lot from you.¡±
Upon hearing this, Meng Xi nodded slightly, ¡°Give it here.¡±
Chen Cang hurriedly handed over the advisor signature form.
Meng Xi swiftly signed her own name.
Chen Cang was ted, ¡°Thank you, Teacher!¡±
[Ding! Hidden task, ¡®Bing Meng Xi¡¯s Disciple¡¯pleted!]
[Congrattions! You have obtained the inheritance: Disciple of Meng Xi.]
[Opening Meng Xi¡¯s skill library¡]
[Meng Xi¡¯s Skill Library, expend favorability to unlock new skills. Reminder: Different skills require different levels of favorability to exchange,plete master missions to gain favorability.]
Chen Cang was dumbfounded¡
I tm¡
I frickin¡¯ worked so hard and you give me this as a reward?
Expend favorability to exchange for skills?
This is what they call a hidden task?
This is what they call a hidden profession?
Meng Xi is only about 30, how many skills could she possibly have?
Thinking this, Chen Cang felt like he wanted to cry but had no tears; he couldn¡¯t believe that he had foolishly taken the trouble to get rid of his own graduate student advisor.
Can I¡ can I return it?
I don¡¯t want her anymore!
Can I change teachers?
With that thought, Chen Cang suddenly felt that women are trampling pigs, and you shouldn¡¯t trust appearances, the prettier the woman, the deeper they harm!
After being filled with countless emotions¡
Chen Cang forced himself to calm down; he was terrified that a moment of irrationality could make thest remaining 5 goodwill points that Teacher Meng had for him disappear without a trace.
Isn¡¯t this just the same as selling oneself for glory?
Using goodwill points to obtain skills, the system really came up with that one.
I¡¯m apprenticing, not selling my body!
I, Chen Cang, swear right here! I¡¯ll never be a bootlicker, even if it kills me!
Meng Xi looked at Chen Cang and said, ¡°I¡¯ve got something else going on today. You can go back first. Oh, and leave me your WeChat and phone number.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, exchanged contact information, then got up and left.
Sitting on the bus, Chen Cang still felt somewhat stifled.
After a lot of thought, Chen Cang decided to have a look at Meng Xi¡¯s skill library.
Thinking of this, Chen Cang immediately opened the skill library.
He was stunned!
Chen Cang discovered that Meng Xi¡¯s skill library actually had three different directional skill trees.
[External Skill Tree]
[Internal Skill Tree]
[Scientific Research Skill Tree]
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but swallow his saliva, cautiously opening the External Skill Tree, and he was dumbfounded. He saw that the tree wasden with fruit, each one glowing with a purple hue¡ªthese were clearly purple skills!
And, asionally, Chen Cang could see some fruits glistening with a golden light!
This¡ This must be perfect-level skills, right?
Isn¡¯t this just too awesome?
Chen Cang was somewhat taken aback.
Is Meng Xi really that powerful?
To possess this vast number of skills?!
[Ding! Meng Xi is the carrier of a profession. Apprenticing under Meng Xi allows you to obtain a hidden profession; the skills are irrelevant to Meng Xi.]
Chen Cang understood the situation now.
While he was apprenticing under Meng Xi, these skills were not Meng Xi¡¯s.
He was merely using Meng Xi to acquire these skills.
With this realization, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but get excited.
But¡
How to spend goodwill points to gain skills?
[Ding! A level 1 skill requires 20 goodwill points to unlock, each exchange consumes 10 goodwill points, and once sessfully obtained, the skill will directly be a purple skill. A level 2 skill requires 40 goodwill points to unlock, each exchange consumes 20 goodwill points; level 3 skills need 60 points, with each exchange consuming 30 points; level 4 skills require 80 goodwill points to unlock, and each exchange will consume 40 points.]
Chen Cang was bbergasted.
Does this mean I don¡¯t need to upgrade skills?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Direct exchange and it¡¯s a purple skill?
Isn¡¯t this too strong?
Is this the benefit of a hidden profession?
Thinking of this, he felt that everything was too unreal, too fake; a hidden profession could directly grant purple skills!
The feeling was wickedly satisfying!
Moreover, Chen Cang hade to see things clearly.
To get skills!
You¡¯ve got to win over Teacher Meng¡¯s goodwill points!
I have to y the bootlicker for Teacher Meng, don¡¯t I?
The better the bootlicking, the higher the return!
Chen Cang took a deep breath.
He thought about a lot.
He thought about the distant future¡
He thought about whether the kids should go to Elliston Elementary School or to the daycare in the vige.
This profession would be so suitable for little bootlicker Qin Yue. If she apprenticed under me, she would definitely empty my skill library!
However, thinking about the wealthy women around him, it seemed like he had quite a high level of their goodwill.
So¡
I should have an advantage in increasing the goodwill of the wealthy, shouldn¡¯t I?
At this thought, Chen Cang suddenly felt that this hidden profession was desirable!
Never be a bootlicker? Ha!
Oh boy¡ It¡¯s actually so appealing!

Chapter 199: Chapter 200: Is Chen Cang the Same Chen Cang? (Extra for Hall Master Together with Readers)
Qian Lin hummed a tune as he arrived at Qian Liang¡¯s office door, where he hesitated for a long time before beginning to muster up emotion.
It must be said that some people are naturally gifted.
And Qian Lin¡¯s acting should be rated at about seven or eight stars.
Within less than a minute, Qian Lin¡¯s emotions hadpleted a journey from triumphant to jubnt to indifferent and then to a sigh of despair and crying¡
That¡¯s the feeling, should be fine now, he thought as he knocked on the door.
¡°Come in!¡±
The authoritative voice came through, and Qian Lin sniffled a few times, trying hard to make his eyes look more moist.
Then he pushed the door open and entered.
¡°Uncle¡¡±
Qian Lin felt that his facial expression deserved a perfect score.
Qian Liang was taken aback as he saw Qian Lin entering with a face that suggested his world had ended.
Seeing Qian Lin¡¯s state, Qian Liang didn¡¯t feel the slightest pity; instead, he felt like bursting out inughter.
¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Qian Liang struggled to hold back hisughter, coughing once before asking.
Qian Lin took a deep breath and sat down beside his uncle, self-absorbed: ¡°Uncle, am I really that bad?¡±
Qian Liang pondered for a moment: ¡°Hmm, a little, yes.¡±
Qian Lin: ¡%%&
With a heavy sigh, Qian Lin said, ¡°I¡¯m so inadequate. Uncle, I¡¯ve embarrassed you, truly. I don¡¯t mind losing face myself, but I¡¯m afraid of embarrassing you!¡±
This piqued Qian Liang¡¯s curiosity.
He had a good understanding of Qian Lin; although shameless, this man was capable. Both in terms of medical knowledge and overall quality, he was quite impressive.
With this in mind, Qian Liang couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°What happened?¡±
Qian Lin let out a sigh: ¡°I was looked down upon by Teacher Meng Xi.¡±
On hearing it was this, Qian Liang smiled, ¡°Oh, little Meng, haha, it¡¯s normal to be rejected. She¡¯s young and has high standards. Only thirty years old and already a doctoral supervisor, so it¡¯s natural that she¡¯s picky with students.¡±
¡°Here¡¯s what we¡¯ll do, I¡¯ll have a word with little Meng. After all, she needs to take on students, and since she has a bit of a liking for you, why not just have her supervise you?¡±
At this point, Qian Liangughed and said to Qian Lin, ¡°Come on, let¡¯s go to the department of cardiothoracic surgery.¡±
At that, Qian Lin¡¯s expression changed, and he suddenly became rmed, ¡°No no no¡ that¡¯s not what I meant, Uncle. This is a hospital, and you¡¯re the Executive Vice President. Every word and action of yours is being watched by countless people. You can¡¯t neglect your public duties for my private problems!¡±
¡°If my parents knew I had hindered your work over my own issues, they¡¯d kill me.¡±
Qian Liang waved his hand dismissively: ¡°It¡¯s fine, it¡¯s fine, it¡¯s not a big deal. Initially, it was I who brought little Meng here. Besides, she hasn¡¯t taken a liking to any student yet.¡±
Hearing this, Qian Lin quickly interrupted Qian Liang: ¡°Uncle, I was beaten in apetition. Teacher Meng already has a student now!¡±
When Qian Liang heard that Meng Xi had taken on a student, he suddenly became intrigued, ¡°Oh? Who is it? Someone who caught Meng Xi¡¯s eye and managed to beat you.¡±
Qian Lin took a deep breath: ¡°That guy is really handsome! The incredibly handsome type, and besides, what¡¯s most important is that he¡¯s extremely capable.¡±
¡°During the cardiothoracic surgery handover, they use English, and as a result¡¡±
Qian Lin went on to add his own dramatic ir to the narration!
After listening, Qian Liang looked at Qian Lin seriously and said, ¡°Xiaolin, boasting isn¡¯t a good habit¡¡±
Qian Lin was dumbfounded; this wasn¡¯t going ording to the script.
He quickly said, ¡°It¡¯s true, this Chen Cang is very impressive, he¡¡±
At the mention of ¡°Chen Cang,¡± Qian Liang suddenly froze, cutting off Qian Lin¡¯s words, ¡°Wait, who did you say?¡±n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Qian Lin widened his eyes: ¡°Chen Cang! Oh, the onepeting with me.¡±
Once Qian Liang confirmed it, he grew suspicious. Was this Chen Cang the same person he knew?
With that in mind, Qian Liang picked up the phone and dialed the university graduate office, ¡°Hello? This is Qian Liang.¡±
Guan Wei heard and chuckled, ¡°Vice-Chancellor Qian, hello.¡±
Not only was Qian Liang the deputy dean of the First Hospital of East University, but he was also the dean of the Clinical College at Dongyang Medical University, and held the position of vice-chancellor at the university. His multiple roles and significant influence were no exaggeration.
Qian Liang grunted in acknowledgement, ¡°Guan, I need to ask you something. Do we have a student named Chen Cang among this year¡¯s graduates? Do you know anything about him?¡±
Guan Wei was startled. Why was Vice-Chancellor Qian inquiring about Chen Cang out of the blue?
Could Vice-Chancellor Qian have gotten wind of the matter concerning Chen Cang¡¯s admission quota?
Only then did Guan Wei speak honestly, ¡°Vice-Chancellor Qian, I haven¡¯t yet reported this to you, but Chen Cang is a new graduate student this year. His spot was personally secured by the dean of the Second Provincial Hospital, Qin Xiaoyuan.¡±
Upon hearing Qin Xiaoyuan¡¯s name, Qian Liang felt that there was no escaping it, ¡°Is this Chen Cang the same one from the emergency department at the Second Provincial Hospital?¡±
Guan Wei was taken aback ¨C how did Vice-Chancellor Qian know Chen Cang?
In Qian Liang¡¯s eyes, shouldn¡¯t Chen Cang be just an insignificant little figure?
¡°Yes, yes, that¡¯s the Chen Cang from the emergency department of the Second Provincial Hospital.¡±
Understanding, Qian Liang replied, ¡°Hmm, I see. Well, Guan, if there¡¯s any news about Chen Cang, let me know. Give me a heads up about his matters. Also, for the opening ceremony of this year¡¯s graduates, prepare a speech for me. It¡¯s been several years since Ist participated, but this year I must make a trip.¡±
Guan Wei nodded hastily, ¡°Of course, of course. It¡¯s our pleasure, Vice-Chancellor Qian. I¡¯ll prepare it and report to you in advance.¡±
After hanging up the phone, Qian Liang remained silent for quite some time.
That Qin Xiaoyuan was really something. Qian Liang had been considering offering Chen Cang a graduate spot next year, taking him on as a prot¨¦g¨¦ along the way. However, he had not anticipated Qin Xiaoyuan acting so swiftly!
To arrange a spot for Chen Cang this year must have taken quite an effort, hadn¡¯t it?
What a miscalction!
Such an outstanding kid, yet not one of his own students.
Thinking this, Qian Liang couldn¡¯t help feeling somewhat dejected.
s¡
Whenparing him to Qian Lin, it was no surprise, considering Chen Cang was handsome, neat and clean, a young fellow who was capable and quick-witted, excellent in surgery, earnest and ambitious, humble and polite¡Meng Xi would be strange not to appreciate him!
Recalling what Qian Lin had said earlier, Qian Liang hadn¡¯t expected that Chen Cang¡¯s English was so good either ¨C such a pity!
What a great prospect.
The more he thought about it, the more regretful Qian Liang became.
He had assumed Qian Lin had fabricated the character, but to think it was really Chen Cang¡ Ah, it seemed the young man hadn¡¯t lied.
Losing to Chen Cang was not unjust!
It would be a surprise if he could have won.
Qian Lin stood there dazed, what was going on?
Why had the uncle stopped talking?
And why had he been calling the graduate department to ask about Chen Cang?
My God!
He wasn¡¯t nning to cause trouble for Chen Cang, was he?
This thought made Qian Lin shiver¡
¡°Uncle, about this Chen Cang¡¡±
Qian Liang turned around and red at Qian Lin, ¡°Yes, I¡¯m aware. Go look for Tao Zi. For residency, head to the Second Provincial Hospital. As for the rest¡ Learn more from Chen Cang. That young man is not bad.¡±
This statement resonated pleasantly in Qian Lin¡¯s ears.
My happiness has only just begun!
Chapter 227: 228: Doctor Jing, take care!
Chapter 227: Chapter 228: Doctor Jing, take care!
After Chen Cang sent the message to Qin Yue, he opened his Moments.
After all, as an excellent surgeon, these things were his trophies!
Be it echinocosis, cysts, fibromas, necrotic tissue removal¡
These were the shining victories of a surgeon, and many liked to post the things they cut out on their Moments.
Only now did Chen Cang learn that Zhang Youfu had two WeChat ounts, with two phones!
One phone was all about the food series, the other was like a surgical exhibition hall.
All sorts of bizarre galldders, special appendices, rare cysts¡
Chen Cang felt that he should enlighten his ssmates with some knowledge about pulmonary hydatid cysts and broaden their horizons!
Of course, Chen Cang swore that he absolutely wasn¡¯t doing it for the likes.
With that thought, Chen Cang opened his Moments,posed a message, and then attached a picture.
¡°Dragon ying Sabre, unparalleled in the world, vanquishing a Level 51 rare monster: Pulmonary Hydatid Cyst Beast! Picture attached!¡±
Chen Cang looked over it carefully, very satisfied¡ªthe angle at which the photo of the lung hydatid was taken was novel, the details were clear, and it was sure to get a lot of likes.
After posting on Moments, and not seeing a reply from Qin Yue to his message, Chen Cang confidently stuffed his phone into his pocket!
Humming a tune, he headed outside.
Thinking about how Qin Yue would look after seeing the photo, Chen Cang suddenly felt cheerful and refreshed; the tune he hummed even turned into ¡°The Most Dazzling Ethnic Trend.¡±
Fresh hydatid is meal apaniment
Beneath the soft inner cyst, the worm¡¯s super high
What rhythm is the swaying best
Pink-colored worm eggs make you more joyful
¡
Jing Ran looked at Chen Cang with curiosity and puzzlement, wondering why he was so happy.
And¡ why does this song feel so familiar?
Just now, he had seen Chen Cang send the photo to a friend, seemingly a woman.
Could it be his girlfriend?
Jing Ran asked curiously, ¡°Dr. Chen? You sent it to your friend, was she happy?¡±
Chen Cang hesitated.
Was Qin Yue happy? Chen Cang didn¡¯t know, but Qin Yue would definitely remember him!
With that thought, Chen Cang, looking at Jing Ran, confidently said, ¡°She will never forget it, because she¡¯s never seen something like this before.¡±
Jing Ran uttered an ¡°oh¡¡±
Nodding thoughtfully.
He felt that there was a reason for Chen Cang¡¯s good luck with the opposite sex. Inparison, he himself had been so busy with work that he seemed to have neglected Geng Yan.
With that thought, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Geng Yan: ¡°Baby, what are you up to?¡±
Geng Yan replied instantly: ¡°The school is treating us to a meal. Are you finished there?¡±
Truth be told, Geng Yan was excited and happy when she received the message; after all, though Jing Ran was excellent, he did not quite understand a girl¡¯s heart and sometimes was even a bit dense emotionally and in certain areas, but¡ nobody¡¯s perfect, and Jing Ran was already very good, at least he didn¡¯t flirt around.
So seeing Jing Ran caring so much about her made Geng Yan very happy too.
Jing Ran nodded: ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m sending you something awesome, you¡¯ve definitely never seen it before!¡±
Geng Yan was very excited: ¡°Oh, what is it? Can¡¯t wait.¡±
Jing Ran casually sent the photo.
Thinking about Geng Yan¡¯s happy reaction, Jing Ran smiled contentedly and added, ¡°Enjoy your meal, I¡¯ll be back soon.¡±
Chen Cang, seeing Jing Ran smiling for no reason, turned to ask, ¡°Who did you send that to?¡±
Jing Ran smiled faintly: ¡°My girlfriend, oh! No, should be wife now, we¡¯re about to get married.¡±
¡°She¡¯s in internal medicine and has never seen this before; she¡¯ll be very curious.¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback¡
That¡
Isn¡¯t Geng Yan terrified of bugs¡
With that thought, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but swallow, looking sympathetically at Jing Ran: ¡°Maybe you should take it back, since girls might not necessarily like this¡¡±
Jing Ran smiled: ¡°It¡¯s nothing for someone studying medicine.¡±
Chen Cang suddenly felt Jing Ran and Geng Yan¡¯s wedding might be postponed a bit.
Exactly how long, was hard to say¡
With that thought, Chen Cang became somewhat conflicted.
I even felt a bit nervous, ¡°I really didn¡¯t intend to break you two up¡¡±
s¡
¡
After all, it was the school anniversary, and those who were invited were arranged to stay at a hotel near the school.
Even if someone had an ident, the dinner still needed to go ahead.
It was the 60th-anniversary celebration of the school, after all.
Geng Yan, as a family member and alumna, was also arranged to join. Everyone at the table was part of the backbone of the current medical industry in Dongyang Province. After all, Geng Yan didn¡¯t yet have the clout to sit with those seasoned directors.
With an outgoing personality and good social skills, Geng Yan chatted andughed with everyone, fitting in well.
Being a Xiehe graduate, and also considering Jing Ran¡¯s factor, everyone was quite respectful to her.
But¡
Suddenly¡
Geng Yan, who had been chatting andughing just a moment ago, suddenly threw her phone and let out a sharp scream.
Themotion startled everyone, spilling soup and dropping the stir-fried pork to the floor.
How expensive¡
Everyone couldn¡¯t help but look up to see Geng Yan turn pale, clearly taken aback.
The heart specialist at her side, Xin Yan, held back before asking, ¡°Geng Yan, what¡¯s wrong?
Geng Yan turned and ran toward the restroom.
She heaved over the sink for a long time!
Pale-faced, her mind kept echoing with those disgusting photos!
For a long, long time¡
Geng Yan still couldn¡¯t let it go.
Thinking of Jing Ran, Geng Yan clenched her teeth in anger, wishing she could tear him apart!
After the hateful Chen Cang showed her those tapeworm photos, she felt sick for a whole month and almost broke up!
¡
¡
By this time, it was nearly seven o¡¯clock. Qian Liang, with Chen Cang and Jing Ran, came out and took a deep breath of the familiar smog, finally feeling relieved.
Despite the bitterness of the smog, Qian Liang wondered why the air in the operating room didn¡¯t feel as reliable?
Still, inhaling this smog seemed morefortable¡
¡°Let¡¯s go, we have a dinner, all with our Dongyang Medical University ssmates. It¡¯s the school¡¯s anniversary after all, let¡¯s join them!¡± Qian Liang looked at Chen Cang and invited with a smile.
Chen Cang did actually want to join the meal, but nced at Jing Ran and hesitated.
What if Geng Yan suspected that he had encouraged Jing Ran to send the photos? That would be terrible.
And¡
Chen Cang looked at the happy Jing Ran and felt a pang of regret.
Dr. Jing, your days won¡¯t be easy when you go back¡
With that thought in mind, Chen Cang smiled and said, ¡°Dean Qian, no need. There¡¯s some work at the hospital I need to attend to, so I won¡¯t disturb everyone.¡±
Qian Liang nodded, ¡°Alright then, it¡¯ste today. Some other time when you¡¯re free,e over, I have something to talk to you about.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Definitely!¡±
As Qian Liang spoke, he got into the car with Jing Ran.
Watching Jing Ran, with his refined and naive demeanor, Chen Cang suddenly felt a sense of guilt and couldn¡¯t help but call out to him.
¡°Dr. Jing!¡±
Jing Ran paused, turned back, and smiled, ¡°Is there something you need, Dr. Chen?¡±
Chen Cang hesitated for a moment, then said, ¡°Take care of yourself!¡±
Jing Ran looked bewildered. What did that mean?
Take care of myself?
He really couldn¡¯t fathom what Chen Cang meant by that¡
Still, he politely responded, ¡°Okay, thank you, Dr. Chen, for your concern!¡±
¡°I enjoyed working with you today and hope we¡¯ll have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future!¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Sure! Take care!¡±
As he watched the car drive away, Chen Cang wondered if Jing Ran¡¯s slight frame could withstand the test. Ah¡ he hoped everything would be alright.
Thinking of Geng Yan¡¯s ck belt, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but shake his head.
Chapter 228: 229: Stop, Chen the Dog!
Chapter 228: Chapter 229: Stop, Chen the Dog!
[Ding! Congrattions, you have obtained a Perfect-level Chest Imaging Skill.]
Chen Cang nodded, this really was a good skill.
The only downside was that it was only for the chest.
Too short.
If you could extend it a bit upward, you could add a head imaging check, wouldn¡¯t that be great?
And if you could extend it a bit downward, you could add an abdominal imaging check, which wouldn¡¯t be bad either.
Forget it¡
One shouldn¡¯t be too greedy.
¡
Early the next morning, Chen Cang got up early, feeling refreshed and headed towards the emergency room.
Just as he entered the main gate, he saw Xiao Lin already preparing and getting busy.
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°Xiao Lin, did you work the night shiftst night?¡±
Xiao Lin snorted coldly, ¡°Hmph!¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback. What was that about?
Chen Cang thought about it. Well, women have those days each month, be understanding!
Then he headed towards the office.
At this moment, Chang Lina heard the noise, came running out with a syringe in hand, ¡°Chen Cang, you did it on purpose, didn¡¯t you!¡±
¡°See if I don¡¯t teach you a lesson today!¡±
Chen Cang was stunned, ¡°Wait, Lina, hold on. Let me die knowing why!¡±
Chang Lina snorted, ¡°Die knowing why? Fine! Come here!¡±
Chen Cang shook his head, ¡°Put down your weapon first!¡±
At this point, since it wasn¡¯t time to handover shifts yet, there were few patients at 7 o¡¯clock, so everyone was prepping for the morning¡¯s work.
Just as Chen Cang was speaking!
Suddenly a group of nurses ran out holding blood pressure cuffs, IV devices, thermometers, and blood glucose monitors¡ all charging out!
¡°Chen Dog, stop right there!¡±
¡°Chen Dog, don¡¯t you move!¡±
Chen Cang was utterly confused. What on earth did I do?
To incur such wrath from gods and men alike!
Nurse head Tian Xiann also hurried over, pointing at Chen Cang from a distance, ¡°Chen Cang! Come here, I promise I won¡¯t beat you to death!¡±
Chen Cang was even more dumbfounded.
Did I sleepwalkst night?
And offend all of you in some way?
At this thought, Chen Cang became somewhat uneasy¡ªI¡¯ve never had this problem before!
Chen Cang with a look of grievance, ¡°Nurse head, I feel like there might be some misunderstanding about me!¡±
Tian Xiann sneered, ¡°Misunderstanding? What a misunderstanding. Come on, see for yourself, where is the misunderstanding?¡±
As she spoke, Tian Xiann picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and showed Chen Cang the chat interface, ¡°Look, what did you send?¡±
¡°My child already struggles with eating, and after seeing the WeChat you sentst night, cried the whole night, refusing to eat. This morning, woke up and even told me they had a nightmare! Look at the mess you¡¯ve made!¡±
Chen Cang was stunned, ¡°That¡¯s not right, nurse head, I don¡¯t have a habit of private chatting with everyone!¡±
The nurse behind snorted coldly, ¡°Don¡¯t have it!? Take a good look at your chat history!¡±
¡°We were eating dinner just finest night until you sent those messages one by one. Do you think one person alone couldn¡¯t handle it?¡±
¡°Exactly! Chen Cang, we still have the dinner you paid for, so you better go eat it obediently!¡±
¡°Chen Dog, finish your meal, and you will be spared¡¡±
¡
Seeing that everyone was saying the same thing, Chen Cang, half-believing and half-doubting, picked up his phone and carefully looked through the chat history.
As he scrolled through, he was instantly dumbfounded!
What the hell?
When did I send them messages?
I actually sent them all photos of lung parasites?
Chen Cang was at a loss.
¡°I¡ I¡ My phone is broken. I really didn¡¯t send anything!¡±
Everyone: ¡°Do you think we believe you?¡±
Chen Cang: ¡
Chen Cang felt very wronged, truly wronged. I didn¡¯t do anything, so why did it send messages to them?
After much apologizing and treating everyone to a cup of milk tea, he finally smoothed things over, but Chen Cang was still puzzled.
¡°`
Could it be that I¡¯ve seen a ghost?
Right!
Today is the fifteenth of July, Ghost Festival¡
At that thought, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help shivering.
What the hell, this can¡¯t be happening?
At that thought, Chen Cang suddenly realized that despite it being broad daylight, he could feel a chill.
This scared Chen Cang out of his wits.
Could it be that there was something unclean in the provincial People¡¯s Hospital¡¯s operating room?
Chen Cang frowned.
Today was a busy day filled with surgeries, but they were allmon procedures, dealing with patients with acute appendicitis, cholecystitis, gallstone disease.
After performing several surgeries, Chen Cang remembered the small incision award.
But he was curious, why hadn¡¯t those people learned to do small incisions yet?
How can they be so slow on the uptake!
He hadn¡¯t won a single Lucky Bag for himself.
Thinking about this, Chen Cang felt somewhat dejected.
During a surgery, Chen Cang suddenly remembered the incident from the previous night and couldn¡¯t resist asking the nurse, ¡°Yuan Yuan, have you ever seen anything unclean in the operating room?¡±
Kong Yuanyuan was stunned, ¡°Dr. Chen¡ what do you mean?¡±
Chen Cang pondered for a moment, ¡°I mean, like ghosts and such¡¡±
Kong Yuanyuan fell silent. After a while, she slowly said, ¡°I think so¡¡±
With that, Chen Cang felt like the temperature in the temperature-controlled operating room had dropped several degrees in an instant.
Wang Yong was in the middle of an appendectomy when he suddenly said, ¡°I remember some time ago, didn¡¯t they say someone saw that old man who jumped off a building in the carport?¡±
Kong Yuanyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, ¡°Actually, the operating room is heavy with Yin energy.¡±
¡°Plus, people often die in the operating room!¡±
¡°Last year during the New Year, I was on night shift by myself because Sister Ling and Sister Hui both didn¡¯te. I thought it¡¯d be fine alone, but that night I felt as if there was something in the operating room. It seemed like I kept seeing shadows drifting about in the middle of the night.¡±
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang awkwardly smiled, ¡°Surely not?¡±
Kong Yuanyuan shook her head, ¡°I didn¡¯t sleep a wink that night, staying up and chatting with Dr. Liu from anesthesiology the whole time.¡±
¡°The next day I went to the temple and got an amulet.¡±
¡°Dr. Chen, how should I put it, with some things, if you say they exist, they do, if you say they don¡¯t, perhaps they don¡¯t. But us girls are more timid, so¡ it¡¯s better to believe they¡¯re real!¡±
Her words left Chen Cang doubting.
¡
¡
At noon, a little girl ran into the emergency department, holding a pink lunch box and hurriedly made her way into the office.
Aftering in, she looked left and right but didn¡¯t find Chen Cang.
At this moment, Wang Qian suddenly smiled and said, ¡°Hey there, Tiantian, are you looking for Chen Cang?¡±
Little Tiantian nced at Wang Qian, and her big eyes twinkling, she nodded, ¡°Yes!¡±
The nurses in the emergency departmentughed, ¡°Tiantian, you¡¯re here to see your hubby again!¡±
Tiantian¡¯s face turned red, but she said nothing.
Just as Chen Cang returned to the emergency department, he heard someone calling out, ¡°Chen Cang, your little sweetheart is here.¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, then nced at the office door, ¡°Tiantian? What are you doing here, where are your parents?¡±
At this moment, at the entrance of the emergency department, Xu Liang and his wife walked in, ¡°Dr. Chen, sorry to trouble you. Tiantian insisted on seeing you. We thought it was also time to change her dressing, so we brought her along.¡±
Chen Cang smiled, taken with the cute little one.
He patted Tiantian¡¯s head, ¡°Let¡¯s go, I¡¯ll change your dressing first.¡±
Like a little mistress, Tiantian shook her head, ¡°Eat first, it¡¯s getting cold, mom made dumplings.¡±
Tiantian disyed an attitude that she wouldn¡¯t leave without eating, and Chen Cang, feeling helplessly amused, sat down and finished the dumplings.
As usual, Tiantian watched Chen Cang eat his meal, wiped his mouth for him, then tilted her cheek, waiting for Chen Cang to give her a kiss.
Only then did she obediently go to have her dressing changed.
After all, she was a child and recovered quite fast.
Finally, Tiantian left reluctantly, holding her lunch box and grievously said, ¡°Chen Cang, I wille see you again, sob sob¡¡±
She burst into tears as soon as she left the door.
This promptedughter from everyone around.
Watching Tiantian¡¯s adorable manner, Chen Cang suddenly wanted a child of his own.
Yet, it seemed he didn¡¯t even have a girlfriend yet¡

Chapter 230: Chapter 231: Night of the Returning Spirit? (Extra for 3000 monthly votes)
The girl continued to speak, ¡°It was hard enough to calm my mom down, and she only fell asleep after taking a sleeping pill, but just an hour ago, I suddenly heard a lot of noiseing from next door, so I quickly got up to check.¡±
¡°As soon as I entered the room, I saw my mom screaming her head off, and everything on the bed had been thrown on the floor!¡±
¡°When my mom saw mee in, she said, ¡®Daughter, look, behind you, they¡¯vee again!''¡±
The girl felt her arms as if she were scared.
Not to mention him, even Chen Cang and Lele were trembling a bit upon hearing this.
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but mutter to himself.
The girl went on, ¡°I was about to speak when my mom suddenly pointed behind me and shouted loudly, ¡®Go away! I¡¯m begging you, please go away!¡¯ But when I turned around, I couldn¡¯t see anything¡¡±
¡°I was terrified at that moment and said, ¡®Mom, are you getting muddled?''¡±
¡°But my mom just clutched at my clothes and wouldn¡¯t let go, saying, ¡®It¡¯s right there, right there¡''¡±
¡°I was about to speak when my mom started to run outside, shouting as she went, ¡®Don¡¯t chase me¡ Don¡¯t grab me!''¡±
¡°Then we chased her here.¡±
That was the end of the story¡
Chen Cang felt a bit of a shiver himself, and shook his head quickly at the thought.
He was a doctor; how could he indulge in superstitions like them?
At this time, Lele and a few nurses were already scared and huddled together, afraid to speak.
Chen Cang, pondering a change in the weather, asked, ¡°Has the olddy had any illnesses before? Has she taken any medication? Such as sleeping pills, painkillers or anything like that?¡±
The girl wasn¡¯t very old, probably the youngest in the family, and shook her head, ¡°No, my mom is usually very healthy. She rarely takes sleeping pills, just in case someone needs one at an unexpected time. She barely takes painkillers and is usually in good spirits, going to the senior activity center every day to sing and dance. Oh! Right, she has high blood pressure. She¡¯s had it for over a decade, but she¡¯s always taken her medication.¡±
Chen Cang thought it over, ruling out a history of mental illness and no diseases that would affect her mental state. After much consideration, he said, ¡°Let¡¯s get a CT scan of her head!¡±
The daughter nodded, but still seemed frightened and uncertain as she asked, ¡°Okay, but¡ doctor, is it possible my mom is possessed by a ghost? Seeing things that are unclean?¡±
Before Chen Cang could respond, the daughter went on, ¡°Doctor, you¡¯ve seen a lot. Should I find a Taoist priest tomorrow to perform a ritual?¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, ¡°Let¡¯s first check if there is anything wrong with the patient¡¯s head.¡±
By this time, the olddy was possibly worn out; she didn¡¯t make a sound and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Chen Cang followed for the CT, fearing there might be some issue.
But soon, the CT results came out, which were surprisingly unexpected to Chen Cang.
No significant abnormalities (Report: multiple cavities in the bteral basal ganglia and semioval center).
The daughter also said, ¡°My mom is really alright.¡±
At this point, the girl said, ¡°How about this, doctor? Give my mom a tranquilizer shot, let her have a good sleep, and if she¡¯s fine tomorrow, then there¡¯s no issue. If not, I¡¯ll find a master to perform a ritual.¡±
Chen Cang thought about it again and said, ¡°I think we should do an MRI¡¡±
The girl¡¯s husband was getting impatient, ¡°You¡¯re taking this too far! CT now, MRI next, what are you trying to do?¡±
Upon hearing this, the girl said, ¡°Doctor, please don¡¯t mind him, I¡¯m fine with whatever, but¡ don¡¯t make us undergo excessive diagnostics. Let¡¯s do something meaningful. You see what state my mom is in; as her child, I¡¯m really worried!¡±
Clenching his teeth, Chen Cang insisted, ¡°I feel there¡¯s still a problem, and I strongly suggest you get an MRI of the head before leaving. If there¡¯s no problem then, I won¡¯t stop you guys.¡±
The daughter pped her hands, ¡°Let¡¯s do the MRI then, think of it as a health check-up!¡±
After finishing, he sent the man to pay the fee, and since it waste with no one around, the MRI was quickly done.
Chen Cang looked at the scans and instantly breathed a sigh of relief, finally, there was a new finding!
The clear images showed an infarct in the olddy¡¯s temporal parietal lobe on one side of the brain.
Chen Cang, looking at the scans, knew the cause. The temporal lobe, which manages a person¡¯s emotions and psyche, was affected. An issue there could very likely lead to hallucinations.
Chen Cang called the girl over and said, ¡°You see, it¡¯s a stroke that¡¯s causing the olddy to have hallucinations, not something filthy possessing her. She must be hospitalized for treatment.¡±
The boy skeptically said, ¡°Isn¡¯t a stroke supposed to cause¡ paralysis? What about the drooling, slurred speech, and numbness in the limbs? How could it be like this!¡±
Chen Cang shook his head: ¡°The brain is themand center for all functional activities of the body, including our eating, drinking, excretion, our thinking, and our psychological, spiritual, and conscious activities. Therefore, theoretically, a variety of symptoms can appear after a stroke, including changes in personality, memory, and even psychiatric anomalies.
But even with the variety of symptoms, some are still characteristic. For instance, paralysis often only appears on one side of the body or face, with bteral limb paralysis being quite rare. What¡¯s more distinctive is the onset of a stroke¡ªits sudden onset and rapid progression to peak severity have significant clinical diagnostic value.¡±
¡°So, your mother¡¯s condition is an acute temporal parietal lobe infarct, which suddenly caused emotional dysregtion, leading to a series of illnesses!¡±
The girl, upon hearing this, instantly breathed a sigh of relief!
¡°You scared me to death, I thought she had been hexed or something! So¡ doctor, what do we do now?¡±
Chen Cang turned and looked at Lele, ¡°Lele, call the Department of Neurology, tell them we have a patient with an acute cerebral infarction who needs to be admitted to the hospital immediately.¡±
As Chen Cang thought this, he exined, ¡°The reason I asked you to get a CT scan first is because CTs are more effective within a short period after cerebral hemorrhage, and they¡¯re cheaper, costing less than two or three hundred, which serves as a screening tool. But an MRI costs nearly nine hundred. However, its effectiveness in detecting acute strokes is better than that of a CT, so that¡¯s why I arranged it in this order.¡±
The girl shook her head, her face finally calming down: ¡°Doctor, it¡¯s okay, as long as I know what¡¯s wrong with my mom.¡±
Soon after, Dr. Zhang Lingyun from the Department of Neurology came down and transferred the patient to his department.
Busy until three or four o¡¯clock, this strange patient was finally taken care of.
The nurses were still somewhat in disbelief: ¡°Dr. Chen¡ do you think it¡¯s possible that she was possessed by a ghost, and then suddenly had a stroke?¡±
Chen Cang was left speechless: ¡°In the future, stop with the superstitions, you¡¯re scaring the patients!¡±
After finishing, Chen Cang returned to his office.
Recalling the patient from before, Chen Cang also smiled. The girl was understanding, and it was really rare to have a patient willing to cooperate with further examinations.
Usually, if the CT scan doesn¡¯t reveal anything, they won¡¯t get further checks, and they¡¯ll misunderstand the doctor for over-testing.
However¡ the symptoms exhibited by human illnesses are sometimes incredibly strange, especially in cases of auditory and visual hallucinations.
Sitting in his office, Chen Cang suddenly remembered he had something else to do, so he turned on the onlyputer in the office that was connected to the inte, about to log into his WeChat.
Thisputer hardly ever got shut down, and was terribly slow. Chen Cang jiggled the mouse, and suddenly the screen lit up. He had just logged in when he was taken aback!
Damn!
I finally understand why my WeChat has been sending out photos to others!
I didn¡¯t log out after using WeChat here two days ago!
Andst night, Qin Yue was on the night shift!
Realizing this, Chen Cang was itching with irritation, ¡°Good for you, Qin Bootlicker, just you wait till I deal with you tomorrow!¡±
ps: For now, five updates, thank you all for your support¡

Chapter 203: Chapter 204: So He Is Chen Cang! (Extra Chapter for 1500 Monthly Tickets!)
[Ding! Intrathoracic esophageal perforation repair upgraded to master level, skill effects: 1. Solid; 2. urate!]
Chen Cang looked up and said to Xiao He, ¡°Director Xiao, let¡¯s prepare for the surgery.¡±
At these words, Xiao He¡¯s eyes immediately lit up!
¡°Chen¡, You can do it?¡±
Chen Cang nodded seriously, ¡°Yes, I can do it.¡±
Upon hearing this, Xiao He was so excited that he was about to leave, but just as he was about to open the door, he suddenly turned back, ¡°Can we do it in our endoscopy room processing chamber?¡±
Chen Cang hesitated for a moment, ¡°Let¡¯s go to the operating room, full anesthesia is needed.¡±
Xiao He nodded, ¡°I will contact the operating room.¡±
After speaking, he picked up the phone and dialed directly to the operating room.
Todays¡¯s surgery was definitely going to be a favor-based one, but as the director of endoscopy, Xiao He still had that much clout.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Cang said, ¡°I¡¯m going to check on the patient. By the way¡ do we have photos on the gastroscope?¡±
Xiao He nodded, ¡°Yes, I took several at the time.¡±
Chen Cang quickly said, ¡°Let¡¯s go take a look.¡±
At this time, everyone in the endoscopy room knew that there was a problem with a patient in Director Xiao¡¯s area, and they all came over to see if they could help.
Chen Cang was the first to walk out of the director¡¯s office, with Xiao He following behind him, hurrying to the endoscopy disy screen to open the photos.
¡°Look, this is the surgical area¡¯s rupture¡ I suspect there might be some fissures here, which can also be easily damaged over time¡¡±
The doctors in the endoscopy room couldn¡¯t help but worry when they saw the photos on the endoscopy disy!
Esophageal perforation¡
If time is wasted, it could lead to serious issues!
Chen Cang, after analyzing the esophageal photos for a while, breathed a sigh of relief; the problem shouldn¡¯t be too big.
Thinking this, Chen Cang began to instruct Xiao He, ¡°The patient needs preoperative preparation, starting with fasting and cement of a nasogastric tube for dpression, then ensuring the patient doesn¡¯t swallow saliva but spits it all out, followed by using antibiotics for mouthwash to keep the oral cavity clean.¡±
Xiao He understood and nodded, ¡°Yes, okay!¡±
This was to prevent mouth secretions, which contain arge number of bacteria, from entering the mediastinum or thoracic cavity through the perforation, worsening the infection!
Xiao He called over a nurse, ¡°Follow all the arrangements made by Doctor Chen Cang.¡±
Since Chen Cang had performed surgery in the endoscopy room before, the young nurse was somewhat familiar and nodded.
The other doctors in the endoscopy room, however, didn¡¯t recognize Chen Cang.
Seeing how respectfully Xiao He treated Chen Cang, they all frowned in curiosity, wondering who he was.
Such youth and yetmanding such respect from Director Xiao?
But looking at the badge on his clothes, he was clearly from Second Provincial Hospital.
This piqued everyone¡¯s curiosity!
Hou Xu was even more surprised; thoracic esophageal repair surgery was a level-three operation in thoracic surgery, a type of micro-operation with some difficulty and high demands on the practitioner, definitely not that simple.
When did Second Provincial Hospital acquire such a talent?
Thinking this, Hou Xu walked over and asked, ¡°Director Xiao¡ aren¡¯t we transferring the patient?¡±
Xiao He shook his head, giving an excuse, ¡°There¡¯s no time, let¡¯s just do it in our hospital! Plus, Dr. Chen can do it.¡±
Hearing this, Hou Xu was immediately stunned, ¡°Dr. Chen? Is¡¡±
Xiao He, as if lost in thought, turned to look at the crowd and said, ¡°This is Dr. Chen Cang from emergency medicine, whom I¡¯ve invited to do the surgery today.¡±
¡°Dr. Chen is our friend, so if you ever need any assistance from the endoscopy room, don¡¯t hesitate to ask.¡±
As one of the auxiliary departments, the endoscopy room might not wield much power but was still a very important department. Friends and rtives needing a gastroscopy or colonoscopy all had to be arranged by An Yanjun; otherwise, you¡¯d have to wait for a week without any other options.
When people heard Chen Cang¡¯s name, they suddenly found it familiar. After thinking carefully, they had an epiphany!
This was a number one character indeed!
Chen Cang, who had been the talk of the hospitaltely, turned out to be the young man in front of them.
It was because of Chen Cang¡¯s incident that Director Song Qiang of the Medical Affairs Department was now relegated to sorting out medical records in the case room.
And the instigator was none other than this person right here!
Now¡
The matter between Song Qiang and Chen Cang had be the talk of the hospital during meals and tea time just a short while ago.
However, people didn¡¯t know much about Chen Cang and had no idea what kind of number one character he was.
Now that they saw him, they were surprised by his youth!
And what were his merits and abilities? Why did Director Xiao hold him in such high esteem?
After Chen Cang had methodically made the arrangements, he made a phone call to anesthesiologist Liu Jian.
¡°Teacher Liu, it¡¯s me, Chen. There¡¯s a surgerying up shortly, and I need your help with the anesthesia¡ yes¡ alright.¡±
¡
¡
The surgery was quickly arranged.
Chen Cang called Wang Yong:
¡°Come to the operating room, number 6. There¡¯s a surgery for you to observe.¡±
Wang Yong nodded without asking further questions and rushed to the operating room. When he learned it was a thoracic surgery, he first paused, then fell silent.
He knew that with Chen Cang, there was no need for many words; watch more, learn more, and just do what he needs to do.
And what was he supposed to do?
Nothing but to assist.
One hourter, Wang Yong and Xiao He followed Chen Cang into the operating room, and Liu Jian entered as well.
Upon seeing Chen Cang and Xiao He, he greeted Xiao He:
¡°Director Xiao, hello.¡±
Xiao He nodded and smiled:
¡°Thank you, Dr. Liu.¡±
Then¡ he couldn¡¯t help but ask Chen Cang:
¡°Chen¡ are you doing it yourself?¡±n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He knew Xiao He might at most perform some endoscopy to cut polyps or stop bleeding, but this kind of surgery was not something he could handle.
Chen Cang nodded: ¡°Yeah, thanks for your hard work, Brother Liu.¡±
Liu Jian smiled faintly, not saying much:
¡°Good luck!¡±
Chen Cang sought Liu Jian because the anesthesia for this surgery was different; the choice of anesthesia for different operations varies, and it was also a test for an anesthesiologist. As a new leading figure in the anesthesia department who had previously administered anesthesia for thoracic surgeries, Liu Jian was familiar with this type of anesthesia as well.
The skill of an anesthesiologist, just like that of a surgeon, can vary significantly.
The anesthesia method chosen for this time was endotracheal intubation with general anesthesia.
The position chosen for Old Yang¡¯s operation was not the usual supine position, but theteral position, because there would be multiple incisions during the surgery, necessitating the use of a right posterteral thorax incision.
After the anesthesia, the surgery began!
Wang Yong, too, didn¡¯t ask further, but he was somewhat surprised; after all¡ this was the first time he had seen Chen Cang perform thoracic surgery, and the difficulty level of this esophageal surgery was quite high.
It was not just about stitching up that simply.
After sewing and repairing the esophagus, the fissure also needed to be covered with a pedicled pleural p.
Moreover, due to the esophagus¡¯ special location and the numerous distribution of vagus nerves around it, there was a risk of damaging them during the esophagus mobilization. There were many things to pay attention to, so Wang Yong felt somewhat nervous and uneasy.
Chen Cang turned to the nurse:
¡°Hand me the scalpel!¡±
ps: The eight updates for today are over, thank you everyone for your support, and thank you to Alliance Hierarch for the generous 100,000 reward from a bask in moonlight.

Chapter 204: Chapter 205: Saliva is Poisonous! (Please Vote for Monthly Ticket haha)
¡°Give me the scalpel!¡±
Yuan Yuan, watching Chen Cang¡¯s outstretched hands, couldn¡¯t help but blush and quickly nodded her head.
Indeed, as they had said, suchrge, slender hands¡ªwhat size of gloves would he need?
And¡ was he really that fast?
Thinking this, Kong Yuanyuan was filled with immense anticipation for the surgery.
Although it was her first time in surgery with Chen Cang, the legend of this master had already spread far and wide.
You see, the operating room is where gossip and news spread fastest, and Chen Cang has been a hot topic theretely.
He¡¯s even be the object of daydreams for the numerous young and middle-aged female staff in the operating room.
Especially during the night shifts, when it¡¯s deep into the quiet night with no surgeries, to drive away the gloomy fear from the operation rooms, these women like to talk about men with masculine energy to boost their spirits.
Any nurse who had witnessed Chen Cang¡¯s surgeries would alwayse back to gossip, providing conversation topics for others at bedtime.
¡°Chen Cang is incredible. One time, Zhou Xiaodong couldn¡¯t proceed with the surgery after starting, but when Chen Cang stepped in, he neatly solved the problem in no time at all. He¡¯s really impressive!¡±
¡°That¡¯s nothing. You didn¡¯t hear about the time in Operating Room 3 when we had a crucial surgery that required rapid suturing of blood vessels. You have no idea about Doctor Chen¡¯s hand speed. He has to have been single for at least a hundred and eighty years to develop such speed!¡±
¡°That night, Chen Cang turned the tide and saved Dean Fang. Honestly, it was so impressive¡!¡±
Kong Yuanyuan looked at Chen Cang. Was he really that impressive?
¡
¡
Followingyer byyer of incisions.
Chen Cang entered the chest cavity, and the real surgery began.
Although it was only just five or six hours in, there was already a slight umtion of pleural effusion.
¡°Suction!¡±
Wang Yong nodded, took the suction device, and began the operation carefully.
Chen Cang¡¯s fingers were very slender and his movements were light.
The esophagus was exposed in front of everyone, and Liu Jian, who was in the distance, felt worried and did not leave the operating room.
Ever since Liu Jian hade in, he had been fretting internally.
How long had Chen Cang been performing thoracic surgeries?
In the Emergency Department, let alone Chen Cang, even Director Li Baoshan had never engaged in thoracic surgery.
Being the prot¨¦g¨¦ of Old Chen, Liu Jian had some understanding of Chen Cang.N?v(el)B\\jnn
And it was because of this understanding that he was even more concerned about potentialplications.
Once the esophagus was exposed, Xiao He stood there: ¡°Chen, it¡¯s in the fourth intercostal space on the chest, toward the back at about the 2 o¡¯clock position.¡±
Liu Jian couldn¡¯t help but remind him, ¡°Be careful, Chen. The vagus nerve is quiteplex.¡±
Chen Cang nodded without a word, carefully dissecting the esophagus.
The process went smoothly, with noplications.
After flipping it over, the wound was exposed.
¡°Micro tweezers¡±
¡°Scissors¡±
¡°Hemostatic gauze¡±
¡°Saline¡±
Kong Yuanyuan quickly nodded and passed them over one by one.
Chen Cang received the tweezers and scissors.
He extended the slit in the muscryer of the esophagus upward and downward until he exposed the area where the mucosa was ruptured.
This operation made Xiao He involuntarily swallow.
A bit nervous¡
He was just about to question why Chen Cang was erging the wound when he realized the reason!
¡°Number four silk thread¡±
The time for suturing had arrived.
Because the esophagus had mucosal damage already, it wouldn¡¯t be wise to merely suture the muscryer without paying attention.
¡°`
Simply put, after suturing, it will not be stable!
Eventer on, the mucosa that was already ulcerated can continue to be damaged, leading to secondary destruction of the esophagus, and by then, treatment will be troublesome!
Others may not understand this, but Xiao He himself works with endoscopes and is very familiar with the physiological and anatomical structures of the esophagus.
The set of maneuvers Chen Cang just used to clip the wound was really eye-catching!
In this way, the ulcerated esophagus can be sutured without causing narrowing due to the wound area being too small.
Thinking of this, Xiao He suddenly became excited.
At this moment, although the surgery had just started, he already felt it was half-sessful.
Now came the suturing.
The sess rate of suturing is directly rted to the esophageal function in theter stages.
Chen Cang carefully picked up the 4-0 suture, and this kind of suturing actually has a simr ingenuity to that used in the anastomosis of intestinal fists.
Amidst threading the needle, it was like a butterfly ying chess, incredibly delicate yet punctuated with touches here and there.
Chen Cang¡¯s suturing was very clever; he chose the technique of anastomosing the ends without upying too much of the esophagus.
As a result, it would be convenient for the restoration of esophageal functionter on.
Liu Jian may not understand other things, but he understands suturing!
The way Chen Cang sutured truly erged the usable space of the esophagus, ensuring a better oue after recovery.
Don¡¯t other people know to suture like this?
Of course not!
Do they all know that suturing this way is good?
But how many have the confidence to suture well in this manner.
The esophagus is different from other organs; it¡¯s a passage that must be kept clear at all times.
For patients with esophageal stricture, eating is a troublesome matter.
If you¡¯ve ever choked, you can understand it like this: when the esophagus is narrowed, you would choke even on rice!
The patency of the esophagus is extremely important.
Why do patients with esophageal cancer first feel the obstruction of the esophagus, and many don¡¯t even feel pain, but the sheer obstruction can drive one to distraction.
Therefore, the suturing skills and ability Chen Cang demonstrated, Liu Jian would bet, are stronger than those of the expert who initially came to help with thoracic surgery at the Second Provincial Hospital!
Many things are obvious at a nce.
As we are all in the medical field, some things do not need to be spelled out.
Upon seeing this, Liu Jian couldn¡¯t help but say to Wang Yong, ¡°Xiao Wang, pay close attention to how your teacher Chen Cang sutures. That esophageal suturing technique¡ it¡¯s really amazing!¡±
Wang Yong nodded, his eyes firmly fixed on every detail of Chen Cang¡¯s movements.
Chen Cang didn¡¯t speak, because it was after all the first time he was undertaking such a surgery, and he still needed to do his best toplete it.
It took seven or eight minutes for Chen Cang to finish the suturing.
This might seemughable to others, taking seven or eight minutes to suture an esophagus; indeed, it was somewhat slow.
But now was not the time to measure expertise with speed.
When Chen Cang got going, he didn¡¯t even know how fast he could be!
Simrly, when he needed to be steady¡ steady as a rock!
The slowness of the suturing did not mean it was not tight. On the contrary, the reason for Chen Cang¡¯s slowness was that he sutured the mucosalyer and muscleyer separately.
At this time, Chen Cang said to Wang Yong, ¡°Esophageal suturing doesn¡¯t need to be too tight or too loose; knots should also be tied with appropriate tension.¡±
Wang Yong, not understanding the rationale, could only look it up in bookster but needed to remember it for now.
Next, after suturing waspleted, the repaired tear needed to be covered with a pedicled pleural p, just like patching a tire, essentially as a precaution!
The surgery had nowe to an end.
cing a closed thoracic drainage tube for drainage, the rest would wait for recovery.
Chen Cang handed the suturing over to Wang Yong and was the first to take off his gloves, saying to Xiao He, ¡°Director Xiao, have the patient admitted to the hospital, and for now, don¡¯t insert a nasogastric tube; continue with dpression. I¡¯m still worried about mediastinal infectionter on, so use broad-spectrum antibiotics during this period.¡±
¡°He can¡¯t eat for ten days, no food at all, and after ten days, do an esophagogram before starting on a liquid diet.¡±
¡°After all, saliva is poisonous!¡±
ps: Saliva really is poisonous. Many patients with esophageal perforations have been poisoned by their own saliva due tock of care. So from a medical standpoint, saliva can indeed be deadly! So¡ the next time you want to spit at me, rinse your mouth before you do.

Chapter 205: Chapter 206: What to Buy? (Requesting Monthly Pass)
Outside the operating room, a family waited anxiously.
During the wait, Xiao Yang remained silent, somewhat uneasy, and worried¡
His wife quietly walked up behind him, gently patting Xiao Yang¡¯s back, not saying much, simply cing her hand on his lower back.
The transfer of body heat often gave a feeling of reliance.
Xiao Yang looked up, saw the worry in his wife¡¯s eyes, and smiled, ¡°Wife, I¡¯m okay.¡±
His wife sat down beside him, ¡°Husband, don¡¯t worry. We¡¯ve made it through tougher times than this, what¡¯s this inparison? Besides, I¡¯m here for you!¡±
Her words made Xiao Yang¡¯s nose tingle, and tears nearly burst forth.
Turning to look at this down-to-earth woman, her arm still covered in sleeve protectors from rushing off from work, and her clothes that hadn¡¯t been bought for years¡
Thinking of this, Xiao Yang sighed, chuckling bitterly to himself, how useless he was!
Such a wonderful woman, following him through all the hardships.
Noticing, his wife lifted her hand to touch Xiao Yang¡¯s messy hair, ¡°Your hair has gotten long. It¡¯s time for a haircut. Shall I do it when we get back home?¡±
Xiao Yang nodded vigorously.
Not muchter, the doors of the operating room opened.
As Chen Cang and Xiao He came out of the operating room, Xiao Yang and his family hurriedly approached.
¡°Director Xiao, how did it go?¡± Xiao Yang¡¯s eyes were filled with concern.
Xiao He, smiling reassuringly, said, ¡°It¡¯s fine, the surgery went smoothly, but he can¡¯t go home right away. He¡¯ll need to stay in the gastroenterology department for observation for a while.¡±
¡°Also, regarding the cost, let¡¯s talk about thatter. If we¡¯re being precise, this was an iatrogenic injury, and the hospital also has a responsibility, so don¡¯t worry about the expenses for now!¡±
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang didn¡¯t feel happy but instead looked rmed and quickly shook his head, ¡°No, no, Director Xiao, that won¡¯t do. You¡¯re an important person, not like us. We can¡¯t dy your future because of our problems. If you run into trouble and get disciplined because of us, my dad would never forgive me!¡±n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even without money, Xiao Yang didn¡¯t want to do anything against his conscience.
Although incidents like this were quitemon in the medical field, Xiao Yang just couldn¡¯t bring himself to overlook it.
He had made inquiries and understood after seeing the endoscopy room himself that it was indeed due to his father¡¯s sudden abdominal twisting and turning during the surgery.
After all, his father had been ufortable in the esophagus for more than just a day or two.
Xiao Yang felt that his father was already sick, and even if the endoscopic incident had just urred, it was due to his father¡¯s own actions. He was well aware of what kind of person Director Xiao was¡ªhaving helped him plenty as a fellow townsman.
Each check-up cost significantly less, and he even did them personally.
This was a huge favor!
Moreover, after his father¡¯s mishap, Xiao He had run around arranging the surgery, something that Xiao Yang saw with his own eyes.
Director Xiao was very busy every day!
Xiao He¡¯s father mentioned that Xiao He often worked overtime until eleven or twelve at night.
Every time they came, Director Xiao was warm and gracious, without putting on airs, and would even invite them to meals when he had the time.
For the Yang family, this was all deeply appreciated.
So, if Xiao Yang let Xiao He be punished because of his family¡¯s issues, the guilt would be immense.
Back home, he would be scorned by the vigers.
So, they couldn¡¯t allow Director Xiao to be burdened by their problems, as he was a capable person, and they couldn¡¯t drag him down with them.
Xiao He gestured dismissively, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll handle these matters. Xiao Yang, you go with your father to the gastroenterology department.¡±
¡°By the way, you really should thank Dr. Chen. He¡¯s your lifesaver. If it weren¡¯t for Dr. Chen, today¡¯s surgery would have been difficult,¡± Xiao He introduced to the Yang family, ¡°And the surgery Dr. Chen performed was very sessful. You can rest assured and focus on recovery.¡±
After saying this, Xiao He looked at Chen Cang gratefully. This was a debt he had incurred.
As soon as Xiao Yang heard this, he quickly bowed with his wife and children to Chen Cang, ¡°Dr. Chen, for your great kindness, we are immensely thankful!¡±
Chen Cang was also a bit stunned and hurriedly returned the gesture.
¡°You¡¯re too kind, too kind¡ It¡¯s nothing, this is my duty,¡± Chen Cang quickly replied.
Chen Cang was indeed startled by the profuse gratitude.
Sometimes, facing his patients, Chen Cang really didn¡¯t know what to do.
There were those who were grateful, those who despised, those who doubted, and those who trusted unconditionally, but no matter what kind of emotions were projected onto him, all Chen Cang could do was not let down the patients¡¯ expectations.
Everyone whoes to the hospital does so with unease and anxiety, deep down they¡¯re all hoping to be cured.
There are always bad people at any time.
But you can¡¯t doubt the whole world just because of a few bad people.
The saying goes, ¡®one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel¡¯, but if you actually remove the rotten apple, what you¡¯re left with is still a pot of delicious soup.
If you overly magnify the mistakes, faults, and shorings, how can life be wonderful?
As a doctor, you should still maintain a level-headed mindset.
No matter what kind of patients you face, you should beposed.
After leaving the operating room, Chen Cang and Wang Yong walked side by side when an olddy wrapped in a headscarf caught up to them and grabbed both men.
¡°Doctor, I am Old Yang¡¯s daughter-inw,¡± a distinctly hoarse voice came.
Chen Cang and Wang Yong turned around, taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly said, ¡°Oh! Hello, ma¡¯am, the surgery was very sessful, what Old Yang needs now is rest, so don¡¯t worry.¡±
The olddy kept nodding, trembling as she took out a wad of crumpled money from her pocket, pulled Chen Cang¡¯s hand, and stuffed it in.
The olddy¡¯s face was full of embarrassment and apology as she lowered her hand and rubbed the corner of her clothes, with a touch of timidity on her face, ¡°Doctor, please don¡¯t disdain it, this is my little way of showing gratitude, it¡¯s really quite modest, I¡¯m embarrassed¡
Chen Cang was stunned, looking at the rolled-up money unfold, all in ten and five yuan bills, along with some one yuan bills. The money was a bit moist, probably from being clutched by the olddy for a long time.
The olddy hurried away after speaking.
Chen Cang looked at the bunch of coins in his hand, nced at Wang Yong, and felt a mix of emotions.
They never expected that the first ¡®red packet¡¯ they received in their lives would look like this!
A wad of money, totaling more than sixty yuan, Chen Cang counted it and sighed.
Looking at Wang Yong who was also unsure of what to do, he asked, ¡°What should we do?¡±
Wang Yong shook his head: ¡°I don¡¯t know!¡±
Chen Cang suddenly asked, ¡°What if¡ we buy something and send it up?¡±
Wang Yong was taken aback, ¡°Buy what? He can¡¯t eat or drink anythingtely, it¡¯s pointless to buy anything.¡±
Struck by a sudden inspiration, Chen Cang suggested, ¡°How about we buy some fat emulsion amino acid glucose injection?¡±
Wang Yong almostughed out loud!
¡°Teacher Cang, you¡¯re really thoughtful!¡±
Chen Cang smiled, thinking it was a good idea.
¡
¡
[Ding! Missionplete, helped Xiao He with Old Yang¡¯s treatment! Rewards: 1. Randomly acquire a skill from Xiao He; 2. Affection from Xiao He +10; 3. Skill points +2.]
[Ding! You have acquired Xiao He¡¯s skill: Endoscopic Hemostasis, advanced level!]
[Endoscopic Hemostasis, advanced skill, special effect: precise hemostasis!]
Chen Cang was delighted, this skill was very good.
Currently, the most reliable method of stopping digestive tract bleeding is endoscopic hemostasis.
Using the Sengstaken-kemore tube forpression hemostasis is useful, but the effect and efficiency are not really that high.
Endoscopic Hemostasis, on the other hand, is different, it allows for precise location of the wound, and the bleeding can be stopped directly with titanium clips, quickly and effectively.
Chapter 206: 207: Deep Brotherhood! (Request for Monthly Votes)
Chapter 206: Chapter 207: Deep Brotherhood! (Request for Monthly Votes)
Chen Cang and Wang Yong switched shifts.
There was an opening ceremony on Wednesday, and Chen Cang wanted to go, but Wednesday happened to be his day shift.
Wang Yong had the night shift tonight, and after some thought, Chen Cang swapped with him and took over the night shift for him.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yong naturally was happy to ept.
When it was a little past ten and things had quieted down outside, Chen Cang didn¡¯t go back to the on-call room but insteadid down across several chairs in the office to doze off.
In his drowsy state, Chen Cang suddenly felt a presence standing beside him!
Startled, he rolled over and stood up.
Because he saw a woman with disheveled hair standing right beside him, staring straight at Chen Cang without saying a word.
To tell the truth, this really scared Chen Cang quite a bit!
Chen Cang was terrified! He clutched at his chest and took a couple of deep breaths.
Chen Cang observed the woman, noticing her patient¡¯s gown and hair which was likely messed up from lying down; she just stood there, staring at Chen Cang with questioning eyes.
Chen Cang felt a shiver run down his spine just thinking about it, God knows how long she had been standing there! If something serious had happened to her, he thought, today would have been his reckoning.
Chen Cang looked at the woman, who seemed vaguely familiar, probably from the emergency ward, but¡ why on earth was she in the office instead of sleeping in the middle of the night?
Thinking this, Chen Cang sighed, ¡°Do you¡ need something?¡±
The woman kept her gaze fixed on Chen Cang, ¡°Why are you sleeping?¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback, ¡°Yeah, I was tired. What else should I do if not sleep?¡±
This was just absurd¡
The woman¡¯s expression changed and she used, ¡°You are on duty and you¡¯re actually sleeping? Are you even a doctor? How can you be so irresponsible? What if something happens to a patient!¡±
Seeing the woman was somewhat angry, Chen Cang tried to hold back his temper and patiently exined, ¡°It¡¯s permissible to sleep during a night shift, but if somethinges up, a nurse wille and wake me promptly, so it won¡¯t affect my work.¡±
After hearing his exnation, the woman didn¡¯t say anything for a while, then she just uttered, ¡°Oh,¡± and added, ¡°I saw you sleeping and came in to check on you, no worries, I¡¯m leaving, you can continue sleeping.¡±
With that, the woman got up and left.
Leaving Chen Cang utterly confused.
What the hell was that all about?
Chen Cang sighed helplessly, sat in the chair for a long while, and still couldn¡¯t recover from the shock, truly frightening.
It seemed that he should avoid sleeping in the office from now on, and when going back to sleep in the on-call room, he had to make sure to lock the door!
Otherwise, if he encountered someone emotionally distressed again, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t guarantee that something wouldn¡¯t happen today!
After such amotion, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t fall back asleep.
He checked the time, it was only twelve, it looked to be another sleepless night.
Picking up a random book from the desk in the emergency office, he began to read.
About ten minutester, a nurse rushed in with a panicked expression on her face.
¡°Doctor Chen, you bettere quick!¡±
Chen Cang hurriedly followed her outside.
At the door of the emergency room stood a group of young troublemakers, neither entering nor leaving, just blocking the entrance, all engaged in some argument.
Chen Cang didn¡¯t venture out, from a distance of seven or eight meters, the smell of alcohol hit him.
Upon closer inspection, they were all young men, livelyds, dressed quite¡ jolly.
Chen Cang sighed, another case of post-drinking disorderliness, the disorderliness of character!
It was just a group of people who drank too much, lost track of who they were, and whose characters drastically changed, leading to them causing trouble from nothing.
Finally, Chen Cang saw a group of people supporting a man as they walked in.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Cang saw the man¡¯s head covered in blood and his face immediately changed, ¡°Lele, get the stretcher!¡±
Lele, seeing the man¡¯s bloody face, had already hurriedly pushed over a bed.
Chen Cang quickly called out to the crowd, ¡°Lift the patient onto the bed!¡±
The group of youngds, upon seeing Chen Cang, let go of the man one by one, and no one even bothered to support him anymore, leaving Chen Cang stupefied.N?v(el)B\\jnn
How the hell am I supposed to move him by myself?
It would be tough even for two people, let alone one. An unconscious person is a dead weight and extremely heavy; Chen Cang simply couldn¡¯t move him.
Seeing the situation, two young nurses hurried over to help.
With great difficulty, they managed to get him onto the bed, and suddenly the group started making a fuss.
¡°Take good care of him! He¡¯s my brother, got hit on the head with a bottle today and passed out! You better treat him properly,¡± one shouted.
¡°Yeah, hurry up, get to surgery, don¡¯t dy my brother¡¯s condition!¡± another eximed.
¡°Right, if you can¡¯t cure him, we won¡¯t let you off easy today!¡± threatened another.
Watching the crowd¡¯s mor, as if they were indignant and would butcher Chen Cang the moment he made a wrong move, he couldn¡¯t help but nce at them. Such deep brotherly love, they couldn¡¯t even be bothered to help lift him onto the bed.
When the crowd noticed Chen Cang looking at them, they immediately red back with furrowed brows, each unting their various ¡®badass¡¯ essories¡ªnes,rge rings, earrings, ear studs, and tattoos!
¡°What are you looking at? Get on with the treatment! Can you take responsibility if something goes wrong?¡± one barked.
¡°Exactly, hurry up, quit dawdling, or we¡¯ll shave you bald!¡± said another.
¡
Meanwhile, to seem more intimidating, one of theds started smoking, spitting phlegm with a snap, crackle, and pop, threatening to teach Chen Cang a lesson.
Seeing what the crowd looked like, the nurses suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
This group wasn¡¯t scary.
With time spent in the ER, one would realize that these types were actually the easiest to deal with.
Going along with it, Chen Cang said to Lele, ¡°Let¡¯s start with monitoring.¡±
Then announced, ¡°The patient¡¯s condition is quite serious, we need to monitor him.¡±
After an examination, it turned out there was barely any issue, the patient was even talking in his sleep¡
Chen Cang understood, this guy was just drunk, but the wound on his head still needed stitching.
However, looking at that group outside, Chen Cang sighed, walked out, and said gravely, ¡°The patient is in danger and needs resuscitation, who is in charge here?¡±
Upon hearing this, they responded, ¡°We¡¯re all brothers, stop talking nonsense, just treat him properly!¡±
¡°Right! If anything happens to our brother because of your babbling, you won¡¯t be able to take the responsibility!¡± they insisted.
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Right, right, I understand, but the patient¡¯s situation is very serious now, and he requires emergency treatment, so you guys need to pay some money, not much, just a deposit of twenty thousand yuan, you can all chip in!¡±
Hearing this, one snorted coldly, ¡°Fine! It¡¯s just money, we can spend however much is needed, just make sure to save him, I¡¯ll go make a call to get the money.¡±
After speaking, the man pulled out a phone, pointed at Chen Cang, and said, ¡°You wait, treat him well, I¡¯m going to get the money!¡±
Having said that, the man seemed to forget to dial, picked up the phone, and said, ¡°Hello, hello, hello, yes, send me that money, alright, I¡¯m on my way to get it now!¡±
The otherds also tried to act honorable, each making gestures at Chen Cang while fumbling for their phones without even dialing, or just pretended to dial a number and then went out to ¡®borrow money¡¯.
As the noises of the phone calls grew fainter, in the time it took to smoke a cigarette, Chen Cang stepped out to check and saw that everyone had gone!
Chen Cang sighed, what deep brotherhood!
ps: There will be three updates tonight and two more at noon tomorrow, because¡ brotherly love is as deep as the sea!
Chapter 207: 208: Urgent Consultation in Gynecology (Part 1)
Chapter 207: Chapter 208: Urgent Consultation in Gynecology (Part 1)
The Digestive Department (spleen and stomach) at the Second Provincial Hospital is a nationally renowned key department, very famous within the province, with the former hospital president, Fang Yonglin, being the leading director of the spleen and stomach specialty at that time.
The rtionship between the Digestive Department and the Endoscopy Room could be described as inseparable, constantly like a honeymoon phase.
After all, one of the purposes for patients of the Digestive Department to be hospitalized might be to have a gastroscopy, or to have a polyp removed via gastroscopy; thus, the rtionship between the two departments is like that of brotherly or best friend departments.
After Xiao He made arrangements with Su Jun, the head of the Digestive Department, he immediately settled the Yang family.
The next morning, after Xiao He went to work, he checked on old Yang again, and seeing that old Yang was already much better, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon leaving the ward, Su Jun couldn¡¯t help but worryingly ask, ¡°This patient won¡¯t cause trouble, right? After all, it was iatrogenic.¡±
Xiao He shook his head and smiled, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, old Su, with our rtionship, I wouldn¡¯t put you in a bind. He¡¯s from my hometown, just an honest family, who have developed esophageal changes from frequent endoscopies. The surgery just now was very sessful, and he should be able to be discharged after recovering over the next few days.¡±
Su Jun sighed, ¡°I¡¯ve been so stressedtely with all the trouble in the department!
Xiao He had a very close rtionship with Su Jun, often meeting up, and they would attend conferences on the spleen and stomach system together, which helped to solidify their rtionship.
Hearing Su Jun¡¯s sigh, Xiao He became curious and asked, ¡°What happened?¡±
Su Jun shook his head, ¡°What a mess! Let¡¯s go, sit in my office for a bit, I¡¯ve got something else to talk to you about!¡±
As they talked, the two entered the office. After closing the door, Su Jun brewed a cup of tea for Xiao He. Neither of them smoked, and whenever there was a chance, they enjoyed drinking tea and chatting.
¡°Recently, one incident after another has happened in the department, to the point that I¡¯m starting to wonder if I should be superstitious!¡±
Xiao He was taken aback, ¡°Are you talking about that jumping incident in your department?¡±
Su Jun nodded, ¡°Exactly. Since that day, there¡¯s been no peace! Just done with one troublesome patient, and then an infection control issue pops up in the department. We found one case of AIDS, two cases of hepatitis B, and I¡¯m just speechless with all these bad things piling up!¡±
¡°Just yesterday, we had a patient with an esophageal fist, who, after admission, was found to have subcutaneous emphysema, hydro-pneumothorax, and clear signs of systemic poisoning. We had the respiratory department scrambling back and forth, stabilizing the patient for half a day, and just today, the patient was transferred to the Provincial People¡¯s Hospital.¡±
¡°Such bad luck!¡± After saying this, Su Jun couldn¡¯t help but sigh deeply.
Xiao He providedfort,menting that this is just the nature of working in a hospital; as a department head, one is bound to encounter numerous troubles, sometimes making one wonder whether being an ordinary doctor would be preferable.
Suddenly, Xiao He remembered that Su Jun had something to discuss with him, ¡°Oh right, you mentioned earlier you had something to talk to me about?¡±
Su Jun nodded, ¡°Yes, Shen Fengmao¡¯s mother needs to have an esophageal polyp removed. She just called me, so I wanted to give you a heads up.¡±
Xiao He was surprised, ¡°Shen Fengmao? The Dean Shen?¡±
Su Jun affirmed with a hum, ¡°Yes, her mother has been hospitalized with us before. A polyp was found during herst examination, and this time, she wants it removed. Just letting you know ahead of time. Shen Fengmao is quite particr and hard to please, so watch out for any trouble she might cause you.¡±
Xiao He couldn¡¯t help but purse his lips in disdain, ¡°It¡¯s not like it¡¯s the first or second time this has happened. Last time, we needed a batch of new equipment, and despite several applications, not a single one was approved.¡±
Shen Fengmao was the hospital¡¯s vice president in charge of medical equipment, a coveted position, and Xiao He had wanted a new machine for the endoscopy room, but she just wouldn¡¯t approve it.
Seeing Xiao He¡¯s expression, Su Jun smiled and said, ¡°This is an opportunity. Don¡¯t fall out with herpletely; smooth things over, and maybe the equipment will be approved. In this hospital, you really need to maintain good rtions with such people, otherwise, nothing will go smoothly for you!¡±
Xiao He sighed, ¡°Ah¡ these administrative types are such a hassle. We work ourselves to exhaustion every day, yet their word isw.¡±
Xiao He was still speaking when his phone suddenly rang.
¡°Director Xiao, are you in the department?¡±
A frantic female voice came through the phone, causing Xiao He to freeze for a moment. Upon checking the caller ID, he saw it was Liu Wenjun, the head of the gynecology department.
Xiao He quickly responded, ¡°I¡¯m in the Digestive Department visiting a patient. What¡¯s the matter, Director Liu?¡±
Liu Wenjun spoke urgently, ¡°We have a patient in the gynecology ward who suddenly became extremely breathless during childbirth. Now the patient is experiencing severe pain behind the sternum, and I¡¯m concerned it might be an issue with the esophagus or trachea. Pleasee down quickly.¡±
Xiao He promptly got to his feet, ¡°Okay, Director Liu, I¡¯m on my way!¡±
After hanging up the phone, Xiao He nced at Su Jun, ¡°I have to go, there¡¯s an urgent case in gynecology.¡±
Rushing out of the spleen and stomach department, he called his department to bring the endoscope and headed straight for the operating room.
¡
¡
Inside the gynecology operating room, Liu Wenjun was closely monitoring her patient¡¯s condition. The baby was almost out, but the patient¡¯s heartbeat had quickened, and she was breathing rapidly, clutching her chest in intense pain.
This situation baffled the delivering obstetrician; childbirth is painful, but not usually chest pain!
The patient, clutching her chest,ined of pain so severe she couldn¡¯t exert any effort, and with the child halfway out, this was a seriousplication!
So, the attending surgeon Zhang Yan hurriedly called Director Liu Wenjun down.
Zhang Jinfeng had looked over the medical history, and the patient was very healthy with noplications, no heart disease, nothing. What on earth was going on?
Could there be some sort of acute illness?
With this thought, Zhang Jinfeng had no time for anything else and urgently made calls for a consultation, to the pulmonologist Yang Xiaoming, the emergency department¡¯s Li Baoshan, and the chief of cardiothoracic surgery, Tao Zi.
At this time, the patient was stuck, unable to deliver the baby.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The attending surgeon, Zhang Yan, was sweating profusely in anxiety, ¡°You¡¯ve got to push, push hard!¡±
The pregnant woman, Liu Wenjun, was almost crying in desperation, ¡°I can¡¯t muster any strength. Whenever I try, my heart hurts, it¡ it hurts so much!¡±
Her words immediately plunged the operation into a state of tense crisis.
Zhang Yan was at a loss, ¡°What to do? Director?¡±
Zhang Jinfeng¡¯s mind spun like an i7 processor, trying to contemte the situation. What could it be?
¡°Go tell the family it¡¯s critical and get them to sign!¡±
Zhang Yan nodded, instructing the nurses to urgently prepare the notification and contact the family.
Outside the operating room at this moment, Liu Wenjun¡¯s family was anxiously waiting at the door!
The whole family of several people were all waiting at the door of the operating room, including Liu Wenjun¡¯s parents, her husband Zhang Yue, and Zhang Yue¡¯s parents as well.
This was supposed to be the happiest time for a family, and also the most anxious.
Watching Zhang Yue pacing back and forth at the door of the operating room, Liu Wenjun¡¯s mother couldn¡¯t help butugh, ¡°Xiao Zhang, you¡¯re so worried. Women, we all go through this! Sit down and rest!¡±
Zhang Yue gave an embarrassed smile, ¡°Mom, I can¡¯t sit still. Whenever I sit, my heart thumps wildly, so restless, I just can¡¯t sit down!¡±
At Zhang Yue¡¯s words, the whole family couldn¡¯t help butugh.
They were about to wee a new family member soon; this was a happy event for both the Zhang and Liu families.
Liu Wenjun¡¯s mother smiled, ¡°Inws, ah, I¡¯ve prepared clothes for Yan Yan, I¡¯ll send them over to youter.¡±
Liu Wenjun¡¯s fatherughed heartily, ¡°You¡¯ve been buying clothes for a year now, bringing something new every few days. If this child doesn¡¯te out soon, we might run out of room for all the clothes at home!¡±
At this, everyone burst into heartyughter.
This was truly a time full of hope, awaiting the happy nurturance.
Just then, suddenly, the door to the operating room flung open, and everyone¡¯s hearts tightened. Was the operation over?
All of them couldn¡¯t help but stand up. Had the child been born?
There was a touch of nervousness in everyone¡¯s hearts.
But they saw a nurse rush out rapidly, carrying several papers, and asking, ¡°Who is Liu Wenjun¡¯s family?¡±
Five people hurriedly said, ¡°I am!¡±
¡°We are!¡±
The nurse approached them and said, ¡°The patient is now in a critical condition, with an unexpectedplication arising. We¡¯re worried about unpredictable consequences. This is the medical notice.¡±
The expressions on the faces of the five family members changed instantly!
Zhang Yue especially, his face turned ashen with fear, ¡°What¡ what¡¯s going on? What happened? How did such a situation arise all of a sudden?¡±
This news was too hard for them to ept!
They had been awaiting happiness, yet what they got was akin to devastating news.
The nurse was about to speak when Zhang Yan came out. Feeling that the nurse might not be clear enough, she decided toe out herself.
Upon seeing Zhang Yan, Liu Wenjun¡¯s family hurried up to her, ¡°Dr. Zhang! What¡¯s going¡ what¡¯s happening? What¡¯s wrong with Wenjun?¡±
Zhang Yan looked at the anxious faces all around and patiently gave them a detailed exnation.
After finishing, Zhang Yan said to everyone, ¡°The patient¡¯s condition is uncertain, our director is personally delivering the baby, so don¡¯t worry. Moreover, we¡¯ve already called for consultations from various department chiefs; currently, the symptoms are unclear, the patient can¡¯t exert force in her abdomen, and the baby is halfway out. A cesarean section may be necessary, but we can¡¯t predict the various situations we¡¯ll encounter¡ that¡¯s the situation. So¡ please sign.¡±
Her words left the family utterly perplexed!
Zhang Yue¡¯s face changed, ¡°Doctor! Save the adult at all costs! It¡¯s fine if the child doesn¡¯t make it, but my wife must be saved.¡±
Zhang Yan shook her head, ¡°It¡¯s not about the child, turning to a cesarean isn¡¯t a big issue for the baby. The actual reason for the patient¡¯s condition still needs to be determined. We will certainly do our best! Of course, it may not be that serious, but I need to inform you all about every possibility.¡±

Chapter 208: Chapter 209: Urgent Consultation in Gynecology (Part 2)
Sign the papers¡
Sign the papers¡
What else can be done other than signing?
Zhang Yue stood there, dispirited and ghastly pale, with a vacant look in his eyes. How did such a good situatione to this!
What exactly happened?
Liu Wenjun¡¯s mother was even scared into tears.
Her tears streamed down continuously.
Their family only had Wenjun as a child, how could she encounter such a problem?
What on earth had happened?
If something really happened to Wenjun¡ would this family¡ still be a family?
To speak unpleasantly, Liu Wenjun¡¯s parents only lived for their daughter, and now suddenly, because of childbirth, she was in trouble; they would rather not have this child!
Zhang Yue turned to look at his parents-inw, took a deep breath, wiped the tears off his face, and walked up steadfastly.
He couldn¡¯t be like this at this moment; he had to shoulder the responsibility of the family, he had to take care of Wenjun¡¯s parents for her!
Even if¡
Even if it were¡
At this thought, Zhang Yue didn¡¯t even dare to continue.
¡°Dad, Mom, don¡¯t worry, Wenjun will definitely be alright, please be assured!¡±
As soon as he said this, Liu¡¯s mother cried even harder, her sobs turning into loud wails.
Zhang Yue, looking at Wenjun¡¯s parents, could no longer hold back and tears flowed down his face: ¡°Mom, please don¡¯t cry, I beg you, I, Zhang Yue, swear, no matter what happens to Wenjun, you will always be my parents for the rest of my life, I will be as filial to you as I am to my own parents.¡±
Liu Wenjun¡¯s father, seeing the chaos, couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Enough, enough, why cry!¡±
¡°Isn¡¯t everything all right? You¡¯re just crying and crying. This is a hospital, are you hoping that Wenjun will have problems? Stand properly and wait.¡±
¡°Zhang Yue, you¡¯re a young man, a man, and in the future Wenjun¡¯s husband, the child¡¯s father, you can¡¯t cry and wail like your mother. You have to hold up even if the sky falls.¡±
¡°Moreover, the doctor said, there is just some danger, the doctors are doing everything they can, informing us is part of our right to know¡¡±
¡
Outside the operating room, everyone was eagerly looking at the OR door, waiting silently for good news.
Inside the operating room, however, was a different scene!
Everything was proceeding orderly!
Zhang Jinfen had already taken charge, saying to the patient: ¡°Child, hang in there! It¡¯s going to be okay!¡±
Liu Wenjun was already crying so much that she couldn¡¯t continue: ¡°Doctor, I also want to, if something happens to me, can you save the baby¡ ¡±
Zhang Jinfen smiled: ¡°Silly child, you¡¯re both going to be fine, just a little more effort, just push a little and the baby will be out, the baby is doing fine.¡±
Liu Wenjun sobbed and nodded: ¡°Yes¡ yes¡ I know, ah¡ it hurts so much, doctor, I¡¯m in so much pain¡¡±
At this moment, Liu Wenjun¡¯s heart was in agony, an emotional torture far worse than the physical pain!
The child must be born.
But her chest hurt so much!
What to do?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Zhang Jinfen couldn¡¯t help but ask the nurse, ¡°Why haven¡¯t the consultants who were just heree yet? Hurry them up, where¡¯s my phone!¡±
After speaking, Zhang Jinfen held the baby with both hands and encouraged: ¡°Child, I¡¯ll count to three, and we¡¯ll work together!¡±
Liu Wenjun nodded, and Zhang Jinfen carefully cradled the head, opening the passage¡
Two minutester, Li Baoshan, Tao Zi, Yang Xiaoming, and others filed in and walked into the room.
At this time, the baby was almost born, and Zhang Jinfen continued encouraging: ¡°Hang in there! Child, you¡¯re doing great!¡±
Zhang Jinfen¡¯s skills were exceptional, and over the years at the Second Provincial Hospital, she had delivered more than a thousand babies.
Liu Wenjun exerted all the strength she had.
She was prepared in her heart to give birth to the child even at the cost of her own life. Before dying, she had to bring the child into this world.
Perhaps, that was a mother¡¯s silly yet very real stubbornness!
¡
Time ticked away, second by second.
Every second was agony for Liu Wenjun.
Suddenly, she felt a sense of emptiness!
Only the sound of ¡°wa wa wa¡ wa¡± could be heard, and Zhang Jinfen smiled, ¡°Well done, child, you did great! Your baby is out.¡±
Liu Wenjun suddenly heard this and felt as if she had copsed.
¡
¡
After exining the patient¡¯s condition to everyone, Yang Xiaoming suddenly said, ¡°It¡¯s not rted to the respiratory tract; the patient¡¯s breathing is normal. The rapid breathing might have been caused by transient effort-induced respiratory muscle spasm, but now the breathing is very stable.¡±
Tao Zi shook his head, ¡°Not a heart disease? There¡¯s nothing unusual on the ECG monitoring, and the recent ECG waspletely normal too, except for a slightly higher heart rate, so we can basically rule out heart problems!¡±
Zhang Jinfen looked at Li Baoshan and couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Director Li, what condition do you consider it might be?¡±
Li Baoshan took a deep breath, ¡°Have you guys considered an esophageal tear?¡±
This statement left everyone bewildered¡
Li Baoshan continued, ¡°That is, spontaneous esophageal perforation?¡±
¡°This is my guess, after all, the patient¡¯s symptoms are retrosternal pain, tearing in nature, and considering the patient¡¯s generally good health without any medical history.¡±
¡°So I¡¯m thinking, could it be because during childbirth, the sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressurepressed the stomach, causing a sudden increase in intraluminal pressure in the esophagus? At the same time, the cricopharyngeal muscle reacted with spasm, going into a sort of contracted state, making the pressure inside the esophagus vastly different from that in the thoracic cavity in an instant, leading to esophageal rupture!¡±
Li Baoshan¡¯s exnation immediately enlightened Zhang Jinfeng!
¡°Very likely! Such cases have happened before!¡±
¡°I¡¯ll call the endoscopy unit right now, get Xiao He toe down and see if it¡¯s an issue with the esophagus.¡±
¡
¡
It wasn¡¯t long before Xiao He arrived, pushing the endoscopic examination equipment.
After telling Xiao He all their thoughts, Zhang Jinfeng said, ¡°Director Xiao, we are still concerned it might be a tear in the esophagus!¡±
A serious esophageal tear was not something that could be dyed; it was a disease that could cost someone their life.
At this time, no one dared to take a breath of relief.
If it was indeed that kind of surgery, they must quickly prepare to either consult a specialist or promptly transfer to another hospital; the operation had to bepleted within a short time frame.
If not, they would have to continue investigating to find the cause.
Although the baby was already born, the patient was still not out of danger.
At this moment, they were on the path of searching for the grim reaper.
No one dared to let their guard down¡
Time ticked by, second by second.
Everyone was waiting for Xiao He¡¯s examination result. Once the probe was inserted and they saw the image on the TV screen, they were instantly enlightened!
Indeed¡
They saw a huge tear inside the esophagus.
At that moment, the truth was clear!
Xiao He¡¯s expression changed, ¡°The tear is too big. I¡¯m worried about excessive contaminants and air getting into the chest cavity during childbirth. Surgery must be conducted quickly, or if it¡¯s dyed, it could be life-threatening for the patient!¡±
His words ced everyone who had just started to rx back into a state of tension!
Surgery!
Hurry and find someone?
Zhang Jinfen frowned, ¡°Is it possible to transfer her?¡±
Xiao He shook his head, ¡°There¡¯s no time; the surgery must be done quickly¡¡±
Zhang Jinfen looked at Li Baoshan, her eyes pleading, ¡°Director Li, you know a lot of people, do you know any thoracic surgery experts in the province?¡±
Li Baoshan nodded, ¡°I know Wei Zhi, the chief of thoracic surgery at the Provincial People¡¯s Hospital. I¡¯ll give him a call and get in touch.¡±
Li Baoshan, not one to hesitate, decisively dialed the number, ¡°Hello, Director Wei, this is Li Baoshan, here¡¯s the situation¡¡±
¡°I¡¯m in surgery, right away, an hour, I¡¯ll be there immediately!¡±
Wei Zhi was already very amodating; everyone heard it, one hour.
One hour should be alright¡ right?
Just then, Xiao He suddenly froze, ¡°Director Li, Chen, a doctor from your department, can perform this surgery! Why look for someone else?¡±
At this, even Li Baoshan was stunned, ¡°Doctor Chen? Chen Bingsheng? He specializes in general surgery. As for thoracic¡ he seems to be quite average!¡±
Xiao He shook his head, ¡°Not Chen Bingsheng, it¡¯s Chen Cang, Doctor Chen. He¡¯s very good at esophageal surgeries; I suggest you get Dr. Chen over here now; let¡¯s start preparing for the surgery.¡±
Li Baoshan¡¯s eyes widened, ¡°Dr. Chen knows how to perform esophageal surgery?¡±
ps: Delivering two chapters, everyone, here they are¡ no need to thank me!
Chapter 209: 210: Oh dear, sorry to keep you all waiting, huh?
Chapter 209: Chapter 210: Oh dear, sorry to keep you all waiting, huh?
Li Baoshan felt that he might have misunderstood Chen Cang!
And he discovered that these directors might also have some misunderstandings about Chen Cang!
Are we talking about the same Chen Cang?
Hearing Li Baoshan¡¯s question, Xiao He nodded, too hurried to exin, and immediately picked up his cell phone to call Chen Cang.
Having been through a strenuous night, Chen Cang was somewhat exhausted, even with a physical bonus, but that one or two points of stamina only had a 20 percent enhancement, meaning it had increased a bit from before, but not as much as he imagined.
Chen Cang suddenly missed his surgical gown, which offered a 3-point bonus to his stamina, and a special skill, a monthly recovery.
Thinking of this, Chen Cang suddenly felt he should find an opportunity to try it out.
See just how powerful that recovery skill really is!
At that moment, a call suddenly came in, from Xiao He.
¡°Chen, you¡¯re at the hospital, aren¡¯t you?¡± Xiao He¡¯s voice had several degrees more urgency.
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but get serious, ¡°Yes, I am here; Director Xiao, what¡¯s the matter?¡±
Xiao He nodded, ¡°Come to the operating room first, the gynecology operating room, we¡¯ll talk when you¡¯re here.¡±
After speaking, the call ended, and Chen Cang quickly got up and headed toward the operating room.
Could there be something wrong again?
¡
¡
Li Baoshan watched Xiao He end the call and still couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Director Xiao, isn¡¯t this a bit hasty? Chen is a doctor in our department, only 27 years old. He hasn¡¯t dealt with esophageal surgery before, has he?¡±
When the director of gynecology, Zhang Jinfeng, heard this, his eyebrows shot up instantly, ¡°Director Xiao¡ this isn¡¯t a joke, right? Esophageal repair surgery isn¡¯t that simple. Every year, no small number of people die because of it. This is our patient, we can¡¯t afford any mishaps!¡±
Gynecology could be said to have the mostplicated inter-personal rtionships in the hospital, no exception.
Here, not only are all the doctors women, but even the patients are all women! Adding to that are all the mothers-inw and mothers apanying them; if you dare make any error, you¡¯d better watch out.
So Zhang Jinfeng didn¡¯t beat around the bush and directly urged Xiao He to dispel those wild ideas.
She thought Xiao He wanted Chen Cang to practice.
Witnessing this scene, even Xiao He was taken aback.
It was one thing for others to not understand Chen Cang, but Li Baoshan, you¡¯re the director of the emergency department, don¡¯t you understand Chen Cang?
Thinking this, Xiao He felt somewhat baffled, wondering who really was in charge of emergency¡
By now, the nurses were already preparing the operating room, and the patient was also getting ready for surgery; everything was waiting for the procedure to begin.
Seeing a group of directors gathered here, Liu Jian curiously walked over and greeted them.
Though young, Liu Jian was the star of the anesthesiology department, his skills nearly on par with the directors¡¯, and most importantly, Liu Jian had a better grasp of new things, often going out for advanced training and meetings.
Of course, all of this stemmed from the department head¡¯s esteem.
When Zhang Jinfeng saw Liu Jian, she hurriedly said, ¡°Doctor Liu, there¡¯s a surgeryter, please help with the anesthesia.¡±
Liu Jian nodded with a smile, ¡°No problem, Director Zhang, your word is mymand. My child was delivered by Director Zhang, and now at home, they¡¯re always talking about Grandma Zhang.¡±
Zhang Jinfeng heard Liu Jian¡¯s words, and his tense mood eased a bit, unable to help himself, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Liu Jian asked, ¡°What surgery?¡±
Zhang Jinfeng¡¯s expression grew grave as he said, ¡°Esophageal repair! During the childbirth process, the patient¡¯s intra-abdominal pressure suddenly increased, squeezing the stomach and causing a sudden rise in the pressure within the esophageal lumen. This caused arge pressure difference between the inside of the esophageal lumen and the thoracic cavity, leading to the rupture of the esophagus!¡±N?v(el)B\\jnn
¡°The situation is pretty severe. If Director Li hadn¡¯t called for external assistance, we would have transferred the patient. See, all these directors have been asked by me toe for consultations.¡±
After listening, Liu Jian gave a faint smile, ¡°No worries. By the way, Doctor Chen Cang should be arriving soon, right? I¡¯ll go get ready for the anesthesia.¡±
When Liu Jian said this, everyone was dumbfounded.
Zhang Jinfeng said, clueless, ¡°What Doctor Chen Cang?¡±
Li Baoshan and Tao Zi also looked at each other before turning to Liu Jian, ¡°Which Doctor Chen Cang?¡±
Seeing everyone¡¯s expressions, Liu Jian was taken aback, and looking at Xiao He, he asked, ¡°Director Xiao, isn¡¯t Chen Cang the one performing the surgery?¡±
Xiao He nodded, ¡°Yes, but Director Li has contacted Director Wei Zhi from the Provincial People¡¯s Hospital, who will arrive in less than an hour.¡±
Upon hearing this, Liu Jian couldn¡¯t help but give an embarrassed smile, ¡°Why get Wei Zhi? You all know about Niu Tianlu, right? The specialist from the capital who has been employed long-term in our hospital¡¯s thoracic surgery.¡±
How could anyone not know? Wasn¡¯t the thoracic surgery department built up thanks to him?
Niu Tianlu was the deputy director of the thoracic surgery department at the Capital¡¯s 302 Hospital; his skill level went without saying.
Zhang Jinfeng couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°We know, but didn¡¯t Director Niu return to the capital? If Director Niu were here, we wouldn¡¯t be in such a panic at all!¡±
Li Baoshan and the others also nodded in agreement.
Although the thoracic surgery department was merely a formality in the past, with Niu Tianlu around, it indeed saved everyone a lot of trouble.
The thoracic surgery department, along with the respiratory department, cardiac surgery, gastroenterology, endoscopy room, and emergency department, were all closely linked and often required mutual support.
Now that the thoracic department had been disbanded, everyone suddenly felt the pressure of continuous difficult situations.
Xiao He felt it the most distinctly!
Liu Jian continued, ¡°I¡¯ve been the anesthesiologist for Director Niu all along, haven¡¯t I? I think Director Niu¡¯s level of esophageal repair surgery is not as good as Chen Cang¡¯s.¡±
Upon hearing this, those around were shocked!
Li Baoshan felt maybe heckedmunication and understanding with Chen Cang and couldn¡¯t help saying, ¡°Doctor Liu, are you sure the Chen Cang you mentioned is the one from our department?¡±
Liu Jian was amused by Li Baoshan and nodded, ¡°Of course, does our hospital have a second Chen Cang?¡±
¡°Didn¡¯t Director Xiao have a patient yesterday? Esophageal perforation surgery, and it was Doctor Chen Cang who performed it. I watched the entire procedure from start to finish without missing a detail, and the precision was exquisite!¡±
¡°Although Director Niu is entirely capable of performing such surgery, I think the procedure¡¯s not as exquisite and delicate as Doctor Chen Cang¡¯s, especially when it came to repairing the esophagus, Doctor Chen Cang was particrly meticulous!¡±
¡°Wei Zhi¡ he specializes in the thoracic major vessel direction, but I always feel that we can perform the esophageal repair surgery ourselves!¡±
Xiao He also nodded, ¡°Indeed, I had a patient yesterday with esophageal perforation. I originally nned to have the patient transferred, but then I thought of Doctor Chen Cang and let him take a look. He said he could do it, so I let him perform the surgery.¡±
¡°I personally feel that he did very well! Not inferior to those experts at all!¡±
By this time, Chen Cang had already entered the operating room and saw a row of directors and anesthesiologists standing there, feeling a bit embarrassed.
With a coy smile, he said, ¡°Ah, waiting for me, are you? I¡¯m so sorry¡¡±
Chapter 210: 211: Did I use my recovery skill backwards?
Chapter 210: Chapter 211: Did I use my recovery skill backwards?
Chen Cang looked up and saw a circle of department heads and pairs of curious, innocent eyes. Far from being nervous, he felt somewhat expectant.
This wasn¡¯t his first time performing surgery in front of such arge audience.
How does the saying go?
Some people are just naturally the center of attention.
Still, the 24-hour shift was somewhat exhausting, and wearing a mask, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but yawn.
He shook his head. You can¡¯t perform surgery in this state, he thought. Esophageal surgery is not as simple as an appendectomy; it required serious attention and care.
With this in mind, Chen Cang surreptitiously used a recovery skill that came with his ¡°Bai Qiuen Surgery Gown¡±!
Immediately, he felt as if he was in a warm home with underfloor heating, when suddenly a bucket of cold water poured down from above¡it was bracing!
Chen Cang shuddered.
This damn sensation¡ was too thrilling, right?
Chen Cang gritted his teeth. In other novels, recovery skills always seemed sofortably soothing.
They felt like a breath of spring air.
But his recovery was like a plunge into icy water, invigorating yet harrowing.
Well, regardless of the process, the effect was pretty good. At least now Chen Cang felt much better, totally refreshed, and all sense of fatigue had disappeared.
He felt as spirited as if he had just woken up from a good night¡¯s sleep and taken a refreshing shower!
Turning to look at the nurse, Chen Cang suddenly blinked in recognition. Wasn¡¯t she familiar?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
¡°Give me the scalpel.¡±
Yuan Yuan looked at Chen Cang, feeling a little excited. After all, it was a big scene today. See, all the department heads around? Each one was a leading figure at the provincial hospital. Just thinking about boasting about thister tonight made her a bit nervous.
The surgery began, and Tao Zi and Li Baoshan came forward to help.
Tao Zi was from thoracic surgery. Though heart and chest surgery were rted, there was still a big difference.
However, lending a hand was not a problem.
The master-level esophageal repair surgery had greatly transformed and influenced Chen Cang¡¯s skills, honed by thousands upon thousands of operations to near perfection.
Gently opening the skin and dissectingyer byyer.
Li Baoshan, who was ready with the hemostatic gauze, was surprised to find very little bleeding.
Li Baoshan keenly noticed that Chen Cang¡¯s technique smartly avoided unnecessary blood vessels withoutpromising the surgery.
This was the result of a deep understanding of the vascr architecture of the local tissue regions.
Every move was intentional, the oue of relentless practice and learning.
Truly, he was someone who paid attention to details!
But what kind of practice yielded such results?
With that thought¡
Li Baoshan couldn¡¯t help but look up at Chen Cang.
All he saw was Chen Cang with his head down, eyes focused intently on the surgical area, meticulous and earnest.
Li Baoshan couldn¡¯t help feeling impressed. What a great talent! Serious, delicate, and attentive to detail; these were all excellent qualities for a surgeon!
Li Baoshan felt a bit of self-reproach and guilt; he seemed to have overlooked the growth of the doctors in his department.
With that thought, he sighed¡
After this, he might have to consider focusing on nurturing Chen Cang.
But then, it seemed he had never underestimated Chen Cang; rather, the young man was always creating surprises for him.
The surgery progressed step by step, quickly reaching the phase of separating the esophagus from the surrounding tissues.
During the mobilization of the esophagus, it was crucial to carefully monitor the surrounding tissues and the aorta, to avoid anycency.
At that moment, the operating room door opened, and a slender man, not very tall and wearing ck-framed sses, walked in.
The nurse efficiently helped him into his gown.
Li Baoshan turned around and, upon seeing Wei Zhi, nodded his acknowledgment but didn¡¯t say much, smoothly making way for him at the assistant¡¯s position.
Wei Zhi nodded back, silently stepping in.
Having worked together quite often and maintaining a good rtionship as veterans of the operating room, they understood each other well; no words were necessary.
After Wei Zhi arrived, he saw a pair of young, clear, and transparent eyes.
Suddenly curious?
Who is he?
Only his eyes were visible outside the tightly wrapped surgical gown.
Wei Zhi was there to help save the day, not for anything else. He had no particr obsession with being the chief surgeon, and after taking over from Li Baoshan, he skillfully acted as the assistant, constantly helping Chen Cang with retraction, irrigation, and hemostasis.
Logical and orderly, it made Chen Cang¡¯s surgery go much more smoothly.
At this moment, Chen Cang was preparing to mobilize the esophagus, and Wei Zhi couldn¡¯t help but take a few more nces.
But it seemed like before Wei Zhi could react, Chen Cang had already seeded in the dissection¡
At this, Wei Zhi was stunned.
This technique was somewhat¡ quite interesting!
No, that¡¯s not it!
Upon recollecting it suddenly, Wei Zhi¡¯s eyes narrowed, truly a matter for careful consideration. Very impressive!
Subtle!
Precise!
Decisive!
Several adjectives surfaced in Wei Zhi¡¯s mind.
Which expert is this young doctor from?
Wei Zhi couldn¡¯t help but be full of anticipation for the uing surgery.
Next would be the repair of the ruptured esophagus.
Wei Zhi had already passed over the needle holder; Chen Cang took the forceps with ease, feeling much morefortable.
Chen Cang looked up slightly and saw that it was no longer Li Baoshan opposite him.
No wonder¡
Director Li is capable, but his skills as an assistant are not as good as Wang Yong¡¯s. This is much morefortable.
Chen Cang suddenly thought that now he was doing minor surgeries, he could almost handle them by himself, but in the future, once he had made a name for himself and was doing major surgeries, he would definitely need to train a group of assistants. Wang Yong¡¯s skills still needed improvement.
During this time, Chen Cang felt he needed to be on the lookout for more potential candidates.
The surgery continued.
Suturing was Chen Cang¡¯s strong suit.
The mucosalyer and muscleyer were rtively intact due to being rupture-type injuries.
Although the incision lookedrger than Old Yang¡¯s, in reality, it was much less difficult.
Old Yang¡¯s rupture was a chronic esophageal injury with significant mucosal damage, whereas Liu Wenjun¡¯s was different as it was a rupture-type injury that was rtively easier to suture.
Easy as it may be, Chen Cang became even more serious.
Because this type of rupture injury could heal with a good expected oue.
Moreover, because the wound could develop scar tissue, Chen Cang had to prevent grantion tissue from causing esophageal stenosis during the anastomosis.
Liu Jian found that there were three major points of admiration when watching Chen Cang¡¯s surgery.
The first was the incision, precise, sharp, and decisive, like extracting the enemy general¡¯s head from the midst of an army.
The second was the mobilization, stable as Mount Tai¡¯s boulder, unshakable as a heavy bell.
The third was the suturing, meticulous and fine, crafting artistry through threading the needle.
Every time he watched the surgery, Liu Jian couldn¡¯t help but feel deeply impressed.
Not just him, even Wei Zhi, who was watching Chen Cang perform surgery for the first time, couldn¡¯t help but swallow his saliva. This doctor¡ so skilled!
The surgery proceeded step by step, steady and unruffled.
Chen Cang was like a seasoned general, arranging his troops and dispatchingmands, all done with authoritative ease!
[Ding! Lv37 esophageal rupture monster stitchingplete, received: Clinical Experience +300; Surgery Experience +300; Skill Point +1.]
It was a sess. The moment he removed his mask, Chen Cang became the center of attention!
Everyone in the room couldn¡¯t help but look up at Chen Cang.
Those who knew him suddenly felt he was somewhat a stranger!
Those who didn¡¯t know him couldn¡¯t help but admire his exceptional ability!
And deep inside, Kong Yuanyuan was slightly excited, He looked at me, he looked at me!
Chapter 211: 212: Let Go and Do It!
Chapter 211: Chapter 212: Let Go and Do It!
The surgery concluded.
The patient was wheeled away, and Zhang Jinfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, while Zhang Yan, still standing there, couldn¡¯t help but stow her anxious heart into her stomach!
The surgery had finally been sessful, and she could now give the patients and their families a satisfactory exnation.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yan looked at Chen Cang with curiosity. She had never met Chen Cang before but had heard of him, and what she heard was because Song Qiang from the Medical Affairs Department had publicly criticized him in the group.
But it seemed that this Chen Cang wasn¡¯t quite what she had imagined!
Originally, Zhang Yan thought that Song Qiang¡¯s proactive resignation was due to encountering some big shot. Now, seeing Chen Cang like this, he didn¡¯t seem like the mysterious figure rumored in the department, the one with connections ¡°upstairs.¡±
On the contrary, she felt that Chen Cang was quite nice¡
And, with this surgery Chen Cang had performed, Zhang Yan couldn¡¯t help but see him in a new light.
Zhang Jinfeng was a chubby little olddy about to enter her sixties. She was plump and jubnt. Slowly stepping forward, she sized up Chen Cang, her brows smiling, her eyes smiling, and said, ¡°Dr. Chen, you¡¯ve worked hard! It really was troublesome for you. Without you, our gynecology department would have faced another issue.¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°Director Zhang, you¡¯re being too polite. It¡¯s only natural for departments to cooperate with each other. I just did what I was supposed to do¡¡±
Zhang Jinfeng saw that Chen Cang was neither arrogant nor impatient, but rather straightforward, and she couldn¡¯t help but smile contentedly, nodding her head.
Looking at Chen Cang, her eyes were full of satisfaction, and she couldn¡¯t help but feel a growing fondness for him.
[Ding! Zhang Jinfeng¡¯s favorability +10.]
Zhang Jinfeng turned to look at Wei Zhi, extending her hand: ¡°Director Wei, thanks so much for making the trip.¡±
Wei Zhi shook his head, took off his mask, and said with a smile, ¡°That would be too formal. It¡¯s about saving lives; how can you call it troublesome? It¡¯s our job!¡±
¡°Besides, if I hadn¡¯te today, I would have missed such a wonderful surgery.¡±
At this point, Wei Zhi turned to observe Chen Cang, looking at this energetic, handsome young man, he couldn¡¯t help but exim, ¡°Truly, heroes emerge from the young; each generation is stronger than thest!¡±
¡°Young man, you¡¯re great. This surgery was quite inspiring for me. Let¡¯smunicate more often. My name is Wei Zhi, the director of thoracic surgery at the Provincial People¡¯s Hospital.¡±
Wei Zhi reached out his hand first, and Chen Cang quickly responded with both hands.
¡°Director Wei, my name is Chen Cang, I¡¯ve long admired you. Every surgical conference, I¡¯ve seen you on the podium. It¡¯s a pleasure to meet you,¡± Chen Cang sincerely said.
The fact that Wei Zhi praised Chen Cang didn¡¯t mean that Wei Zhi¡¯s level wasn¡¯t good. After all, the first heart-lung transnt surgery in Dongyang Province had been performed in the thoracic surgery department of the Provincial People¡¯s Hospital.
¡°Visit the Provincial People¡¯s when you have time. Young people shouldmunicate more! If you need anything in the future, contact me. I think very highly of you, young man!¡±
Chen Cang nodded, taking the initiative to exchange contact information with Wei Zhi.
One should never disdain making one more friend or elder, as this can be of great help to your future.
Wei Zhi did not stay for long. After greeting Li Baoshan and the others, he left in a hurry.
Their time was precious. As one of Dongyang Province¡¯s leading hospitals, the Provincial People¡¯s bore a heavy responsibility, and each department head had to safeguard thest line of defense for people¡¯s lives.
This was like a general protecting his country, a significant responsibility!
If these directors were generals fighting against disease, Chen Cang was a warrior charging into battle, already beginning to make a name for himself in this field.
After some exchanges, everyone gradually became familiar with one another.
Actually, it was mainly Zhang Jinfeng, who, with a smile on her face, looked at Chen Cang, liking him more and more, and couldn¡¯t help asking, ¡°Little Chen, do you have a partner?¡±
Before Chen Cang had the chance to speak, Li Baoshan took over the conversation.
¡°Ah¡ Little Chen is just too focused on his work, neglecting his personal life a bit¡ Director Zhang, your gynecology department is full of women; you should find Little Chen a nice girl!¡±
Zhang Jinfeng immediatelyughed, ¡°There are many women in gynecology, doctors and patients alike. But those whoe to gynecology are here to get treated. Think about it, they either have issues with childbirth or not having children. Tell me, which of these should I introduce to Little Chen?¡±
¡°Moreover, the female doctors in our department¡ they are all tough as men, each one more tired than those in your emergency department! If Little Chen got together with a gynecologist, the couple would only meet in the operating room, and certainly no chance at home!¡±
Zhang Jinfeng, a plump olddy nearing sixty, looked festive and kind, and when sheughed, she was just like the friendly aunt next door, speaking with a sense of humor that was off the charts.
¡°If I were to introduce her to Little Chen, wouldn¡¯t people say that I, Zhang Jinfeng,ck integrity!¡±
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly burst intoughter; who could guess that this plump little olddy was one of the only two nationally renowned doctors at the Provincial Second Hospital?
Zhang Jinfeng¡¯s tune changed suddenly, and he said: ¡°However, I really do have a niece who works at the fertility center. The job isn¡¯t tiring, and the work hours are pretty rxed. She¡¯s also quite good-looking. Do you want to meet her?¡±
Chen Cang gave an awkward smile; he was in no mood for this, nor did he have the time.
After finishing up today, he still needed to pick up his younger brother for the start of school, and then prepare for the new students¡¯ orientation tomorrow. Where would he find the time for matchmaking?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Besides, he still needed to carve out some time to strategize on how to court Dr. Meng. After all, she was his skill library now. If he wanted to learn skills, first he had to increase her favorability towards him.
What if¡
What if he got a girlfriend and Dr. Meng got jealous? Favorability was hard-won; Chen Cang decided to cherish it well.
Chen Cang smiled and made up an excuse to politely decline Zhang Jinfeng¡¯s offer.
Which also got everyoneughing.
¡
¡
After leaving the operating room, Chen Cang walked side by side with Li Baoshan.
Li Baoshan spoke thoughtfully: ¡°Little Chen, are you busy these days?¡±
Chen Cang was taken aback: ¡°What do you mean, Director?¡±
Li Baoshan smiled: ¡°Nothing much, it¡¯s just that it¡¯s recruitment time again for the provincial government units. Our Emergency Department definitely needs to grow next year, and we¡¯re certainly short on hands, but this year, I¡¯ve already applied for a doctorate and a deputy director, so we definitely can¡¯t get any more staffing quota this year.¡±
¡°However, we definitely need to recruit a batch of new people. Undergraduates need to go through standardized training nowadays, and not many people are willing to take temporary jobs, so I negotiated with the hospital and secured a few more contract spots.¡±
¡°So before the provincial government recruitment starts, we¡¯ll do a round of hiring. I¡¯ve already reported it to the hospital, and there might be a job fair this weekend. If you have time, spare half a day to help out, see if there¡¯s anyone suitable; after all, some of these recruits may need to assist you. Try to find someone who meets your standards.¡±
Li Baoshan fell silent for a few seconds, then continued: ¡°Initially, I thought about having you continue working under Old Chen and the others, serving as an assistant for the time being, but now I think I can¡¯t do that anymore.¡±
¡°The structure of the department needs some adjustment. At present, I n to focus on three directions: general surgery, headed by Bingsheng, orthopedic surgery led by Director An, and thoracic surgery, which will be taken on by the deputy director to be recruited.¡±
¡°With this arrangement, the core strength of our department will have Director An, Chen Bingsheng, and the new deputy director in the middle tier, with the new doctor, Wang Qian, you, Qin Yue, and Wang Yong as the new generation. But this means we¡¯re short on reserve talent.¡±
¡°At first, I thought you, being a bachelor¡¯s degree graduate, might be a bit behind Wang Qian and Qin Yue. But now, it seems you¡¯re a cut above them.¡±
With that, Li Baoshan looked at Chen Cang and smiled: ¡°In the end, Little Chen, I¡¯ve underestimated you, really. Your potential is so strong, your future is limitless.¡±
¡°I even think now that the Emergency Department at Provincial Second Hospital can¡¯t hold you back.¡±
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but smile and didn¡¯t say a word.
As Li Baoshan continued, watching Chen Cang and walking beside him, he said: ¡°Of course, I also don¡¯t intend to hold you back. You should go out and see more. Our Dongyang Province is rtively underdeveloped, and many major surgeries can¡¯t be performed here.¡±
¡°When I see you operating, I think if I had your kind of talent at your age, I definitely wouldn¡¯t confine myself to such a small hospital.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, following Li Baoshan and remaining silent. He didn¡¯t know what to say; after all, it wouldn¡¯t mean much, no matter how much they talked.
Suddenly, Li Baoshan stopped walking, turned around, and looked at Chen Cang: ¡°So! What I¡¯ve been thinking is that what I can offer you is a tform!¡±
¡°Indeed, our Provincial Second Hospital might be rundown and develops rather slowly, but our Emergency Department has one advantage¡ªit can provide you with a starting tform. So, just know this in your heart, be bold in what you do. I won¡¯t have you assisting them anymore. Once we get those contractors, I¡¯ll pick out a few to assist you.¡±
With these words, Li Baoshan left Chen Cang utterly dumbfounded.
¡°Director, what do you mean?¡±
Li Baoshan chuckled: ¡°I mean, let go and do it. If there¡¯s any trouble, I¡¯ll have your back!¡±
ps: For now, three updates. Thank you all for your support.
Chapter 240: 241: Remote Consultation (Added for 4500 monthly tickets)
Chapter 240: Chapter 241: Remote Consultation (Added for 4500 monthly tickets)
This design is no simple task!
Chen Cang suddenly realized that skin p transntation was not as simple as he had imagined. If it were for the hands or legs, that would be one thing, but a facial defect waspletely different.
You can imagine how difficult it is, to patch up a missing piece of flesh on the face and still make the face look good. Here¡¯s an example to illustrate the challenge!
There were too many considerations.
He had to consider the path of the blood vessels, the choice of skin ps, where to make the incisions, how much skin to remove, and how to maintain a good shape when stitching.
At this moment, Xu Kailin, the attending doctor of patient 20, Dou Xin, walked in and saw Chen Cang gesturing continuously at Dou Xin¡¯s face. Her expression instantly changed. Who is he?
And just as she was about to speak, Qin Xiang suddenly shushed her.
Xu Kailin looked at the director and couldn¡¯t help but be stunned.
Chen Cang looked for a long while, his beautiful eyes continuously outlining various possibilities.
Chen Cang said to the girl, ¡°Can you unbutton your top a little?¡±
Dou Xin hesitated for a moment, then unbuttoned her shirt, but her face instantly turned red all the way to the neck.
Chen Cang noticed that the young girl was indeed very pale and had good skin; the color of the skin in the chest area was not much different from the face, which gave him an idea.
Chen Cang habitually reached for a pen, but after searching for a while, he remembered he wasn¡¯t wearing his white coat.
Seeing this, Qin Xiang quickly came over and handed his pen from his pocket to Chen Cang, ¡°Here.¡±
Chen Cang looked at the ballpoint pen offered to him and shook his head, ¡°Give me a marker.¡±
Xu Kailin hurriedly handed over a ck marker from her pocket, thinking to herself, ¡®Is this the expert they called in? Why does the director respect him so much? But he looks so young!¡¯
With this thought, Xu Kailin grew more curious. She wanted to see just how skilled this young man was.
Chen Cang took the marker and began to draw on Dou Xin¡¯s face and chest.
At this point, Qin Xiang leaned in for a closer look, furrowed his brow slightly, and thought, what kind of skin p is this?
An O-Z p?
No, that¡¯s not right!
It seemed to have some shadows of an A-T p, but the A-T p, due to its versatile transformations, is more suitable for repairs in the never-ending hairline, nasal r groove, and lip groove. However, this A-T p, because of the three intersection points, tends to leave a ¡°T¡± shaped scar, right? And this area doesn¡¯t require an A-T p.
But this was too far from the traditional skin p transnt, wasn¡¯t it?
Qin Xiang had never seen such a skin p transnt at all.
Just then, Qin Xiang had an epiphany. Who said Chen Cang was a dermatologist?!
Upon further thought, Qin Xiang couldn¡¯t help but shake his head and chuckled at himself. How could Chen Cang know about skin ps? He was thinking too much¡
Perhaps he was considering how to use aesthetic design principles on the skin!
After sketching for a long time, Chen Cang finally set down the pen in his hand.
He picked up his phone and took a photo. This was an idea.
Chen Cang¡¯s choice was to use three sections of skin ps¡ªone from behind the ear, one advanced from the neck, and a twisted pedicle from the chest.
This way, he could achieve a better aesthetic result without affecting the blood cirction of the face.
A simplerge-area skin p transnt, in Chen Cang¡¯s opinion, would not have a good recovery.
After finishing, Chen Cang breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Xiang looked thoughtfully at Chen Cang, curious to know what was meant by ¡°this much effort.¡± So he asked, ¡°How about it? Chen, do you have any ideas?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°I have a small suggestion.¡±
At that moment, Xu Kailin was somewhat displeased with the mess Chen Cang had drawn on Dou Xin¡¯s face, thinking he was an expert.
Do you think skin p transntation is just about moving a patch of skin over?
Thinking this, Xu Kailin couldn¡¯t help but sigh. Maybe her expectations were too high!
¡°Director, the Sixth Hospital in Modu City said they can do a remote consultation at three o¡¯clock in the afternoon.¡±
Qin Xiang was about to talk to Chen Cang when he was interrupted by Xu Kailin, but his eyes lit up when he heard her.
¡°Oh? Great! That¡¯s wonderful, what did they say?¡±
Xu Kailin smiled, ¡°Director Xiao personally replied, saying he invited Director Wang this morning to participate, hoping to help this little girl!¡±
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiang became excited!
¡°Great!¡±
¡°Great!¡±
¡°Great!¡±
Three consecutive exmations of ¡°great¡± undeniably showcased Qin Xiang¡¯s excitement.
¡°By the way, have the girl Xin Xin¡¯s medical records been sent over?¡±
Xu Kailin nodded and said, ¡°They¡¯ve been sent.¡±
The orthopedic and hand surgery departments of the Sixth Hospital in Modu City are nationally renowned, and Director Wang is an expert in the field of skin p transntation. With their coborative consultation, a perfect solution would certainly be found. At this thought, Xu Kailin suddenly felt full of anticipation.
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang also paused briefly. The Sixth Hospital in Modu City? That¡¯s quite a reputation!
Chen Cang now wanted to hear their ideas and suggestions. Even though he possessed master-level skill in skin p transntation, medicine was all aboutmunication and exchange. With this coboration, they could better help the patient.
Suddenly, Qin Xiang said, ¡°Chen, join the remote consultation this afternoon, and let¡¯s have lunch together at noon.¡±
Chen Cang nodded.
At that moment, a thin man walked in. He was quite tall but seemed lethargic. His hair was thin and graying, and he had many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and on his forehead, making him look over sixty.
The man carried a meal box and as soon as he entered the ward and saw Qin Xiang, he immediately smiled, deepening the wrinkles on his face.
¡°Director Qin, you¡¯re here? Not resting on the weekend?¡± The man put down the meal box, held Qin Xiang¡¯s hands, and bowed slightly as he spoke with a smile.
Qin Xiang also smiled, ¡°I¡¯ve invited a few experts today to refine the surgical n. We¡¯re aiming for surgery tomorrow. Oh, and let me introduce you, this is Doctor Chen, specially invited to design for Xin Xin. He¡¯s very skilled in the field of skin aesthetics.¡±
The man hurried over to bow to Chen Cang, ¡°Doctor Chen, thank you for your troubles.¡±
Chen Cang simply smiled and did not say much.
After having lunch with Qin Xiang at the hospital cafeteria, Chen Cang suddenly realized that the cafeteria at the Second Provincial Hospital was better¡ªat least the servingdy¡¯s hand didn¡¯t tremble there, and she would scoop an extra spoonful of meat when she saw him.
At three o¡¯clock in the afternoon, the doctor¡¯s office television for remote meetings was turned on, ready to conduct a remote consultation.
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but marvel at the wealth and equipment of Dongda First Hospital. It seemed every department had such remote meeting equipment, and the convenience brought by technological development was obvious to all.
Therge screen was ced in the corner of the room, and as the image from the other side appeared, it felt like a huge office¡ªand the image was very clear.
Seeing four or five doctors appear on the screen, Qin Xiang stood up and nodded slightly, ¡°Director Wang, Director Xiao, sorry to trouble you on Saturday, and thanks for helping with the consultation.¡±
Wang Yushan looked quite authoritative with a square face andrge ears. After exchanging pleasantries, he said, ¡°Director Qin, we¡¯re somewhat familiar with the patient¡¯s condition now, let¡¯s get started!¡±
¡°We¡¯ve discussed the patient¡¯s situation and have several proposals, but they¡¯re not unified. I¡¯ll start by sharing our thoughts and Director Qin, you listen first.¡±
PS: Today, five chapters in total, thank you!
Chapter 213: 214: Old Classmate (Added for Alliance Hierarch Sleeve-silent Good-doer)
Chapter 213: Chapter 214: Old ssmate (Added for Alliance Hierarch Sleeve-silent Good-doer)
¡°`
Mrs. Fu set off for the School of Media Studies with her younger brother, while Chen Cang took a taxi to Dongyang Medical University.
Dongyang Medical University started its term earlier than most, and today was the opening ceremony for new graduate students.N?v(el)B\\jnn
In reality, it was just the so-called mobilization assembly.
The feelings that came with stepping onto the campus once again were, after all, different.
It felt like a return to those youthful days.
Chen Cang went through the process ofpleting various formalities and collecting a series of documents. By the time he finished, it was already noon.
Graduate studies in medicine are unlike other fields; many people say it doesn¡¯t cost much to pursue a graduate degree, and some even manage to save money. That might be true because you chose a good major. If you think you have extra cash¡e try studying medicine¡
You¡¯re as busy as a dog, up early and workingte. Doctors in the department don¡¯t even regard you as a peer¡ªjust a free internbor force.
Getting paid by the boss?
Nice to think about.
The assembly was scheduled for the afternoon and evening, so Chen Cang took his meal card to the cafeteria around midday, this familiar ce.
vors once deemed unappetizing had, after graduation, be somewhat nostalgic; the food was economical and clean.
Chen Cang would asionallye back for a visit.
A cafeteria meal with two meat dishes, one vegetable, and rice cost only seven or eight yuan.
When Chen Cang had first entered university, he used to walk with his dorm mates in groups. Now, he found he preferred to be alone.
Working alone, knocking off alone, eating alone.
Being on your own wasn¡¯t exactly enjoyable, but once ustomed to it, you might find itfortable.
Okay, Chen Cang was just trying to justify his single status with some lofty excuse.
He purchased his familiar meal and found a familiar spot to sit down.
¡
¡
¡°Hey? Luo Zhou, do you see that? Isn¡¯t that Chen Cang?¡± Dong Jia pointed at Chen Cang who was eating at a nearby table and suddenly spoke up.
Luo Zhou was startled and looked in the direction to see for himself, then said in surprise, ¡°My God! It really is him! Chen Cang! What¡¯s he doing here?¡±
As they spoke, the two walked towards Chen Cang¡¯s table with their tes.
¡°Cang Er! It really is you!¡± Luo Zhouughed out loud, setting down his tray and smiling.
Only then did Chen Cang look up. Seeing the two, he was stunned too.
¡°Luo Zhou? Dong Jia? What are you guys¡ What are you doing at school?¡±
Dong Jia startedughing, ¡°I¡¯m here to help out with the new graduate student orientation this year; Professor Guan sent me. Old Luo graduated this year, was idle, and had nothing to do, so I dragged him out for a walk.¡±
¡°Oh right, you might not know this, but Professor Guan has now be the director of the Graduate Student Affairs at Dongyang Medical University. How awesome is that?¡±
¡°But, Chen Cang, what are you doing at school?¡±
The three were ssmates during their undergraduate studies and had a reasonably good rtionship, so seeing Chen Cang naturally felt more cordial.
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°I¡¯m just following in your footsteps and havee to pursue graduate studies. From now on, I¡¯ll have to call you Senior Luo and Senior Sister Dong!¡±
Luo Zhou¡¯s eyes widened: ¡°What do you mean?¡±
Chen Cang took out the student ID he had just received that day and handed it over: ¡°Have a look, I¡¯m a fresh 19th-level neer, brand new and green.¡±
This immediately made Luo Zhou and Dong Jia burst intoughter.
¡°`
However, Luo Zhou couldn¡¯t help but express his doubts, ¡°That¡¯s not right, Cang Er, with your capabilities, it would take you three years to get into grad school? Xiehe shouldn¡¯t be an issue for you, should it!?¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°I worked for two years, and now that the opportunity hase, I¡¯ve started pursuing my graduate studies.¡±
Dong Jia sighed, ¡°You¡¯re telling me, jobs are hard to find nowadays. Those provincial hospitals directly under the provincial capital cities don¡¯t even want graduates anymore. Even if they do, it¡¯s like fitting a carrot into a hole, tailored for their own students.¡±
¡°Our batch just graduated this year, and there¡¯s no recruitment information from the provincial direct units yet, everyone¡¯s still at school waiting for announcements. Many people graduated with nowhere to go, the good ces are out of reach, and they don¡¯t want to go to the less desirable ones.¡±
Chen Cang watched as Dong Jia transferred the fatty pieces of meat from her meal to Luo Zhou¡¯s bowl, showing a casual intimacy, and couldn¡¯t help asking:
¡°Luo Zhou, Dong Jia, when did you two get together?¡±
Luo Zhou chuckled, and Dong Jia gave him a nce, saying, ¡°I didn¡¯t get into Xi¡¯an Jiaotong University¡¯s first affiliated hospital my first year, then we studied together and I tested back into our school. Luo Zhou took care of me all the way, helping me find a supervisor. After I got in, we got together.¡±
Luo Zhou didn¡¯t mind and smiled, ¡°Time really flies, three years have passed in a blink of an eye, and I¡¯ve graduated from my master¡¯s program this year.¡±
Speaking of which, Luo Zhou suddenly said with a hint of mystery, ¡°Cang Er, this year¡¯s freshman orientation will be lively, especially tomorrow.¡±
Chen Cang was puzzled, ¡°What do you mean?¡±
Luo Zhou, ¡°This year coincides with the school¡¯s anniversary, the sixtieth. Many of our outstanding graduates and some of the more impressive students from the past two years have been invited back. Tonight¡¯s orientation will definitely feature a few speeches from such individuals.¡±
Only then did Chen Cang nod in understanding.
These matters seemed distant from him.
¡°Luo Zhou, what specialty did you study in graduate school?¡± Chen Cang asked.
Luo Zhouined with a smile, ¡°General surgery, but this year, they¡¯ve recruited too few in the general surgery direction, and nearly twenty to thirty are graduating from general surgery in our batch. Too many monks and not enough porridge¡ªor rather, too many wolves and not enough meat! Everyone¡¯s desperately waiting for a job.¡±
Chen Cang nodded thoughtfully, ¡°Oh¡ Do you have a suitable position? Did your teacher secure a quota for you?¡±
Dong Jia chuckled, ¡°With his dopey head, would his supervisor even like him?¡±
Luo Zhouughed awkwardly, ¡°It¡¯s not like that. My supervisor isn¡¯t the head of the department, so he doesn¡¯t have that much power. Even the students of the big department heads can¡¯t necessarily secure a quota. Besides, things aren¡¯t that simple in today¡¯s society.¡±
¡°Last year, a senior from our hospital wanted to stay on after graduating. In the end, he spent around six or seven hundred thousand. Where would I get that much money to buy a job?¡±
Speaking of work made everyone a bit anxious.
Chen Cang timely changed the subject, and they all started talking about the ssmates from their ss.
The meal was lively and boisterous.
Luo Zhou suddenly mentioned, ¡°Right, Cang Er, there¡¯s a gathering on Saturday. Do you want toe? It¡¯s for graduates from our batch, just to catch up. After all, it might make it easier to find someone for a consultation once we¡¯re working.¡±
Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help butugh.
He didn¡¯t know about other industries, but in the medical field, it certainly was like that. With a group of ssmates in different hospital departments, it was convenient to find someone for a consultation without incessantly making phone calls.
¡°Saturday¡ I might be busy this Saturday, let¡¯s see then.¡±
He had quite a few things to do on Saturday, including supervising the recruitment fair as the director had asked him.
The meal was lively and enjoyable, the old ssmates gathered, spirits were high, andughter filled the air well into the afternoon.
Suddenly, Dong Jia asked, ¡°Chen Cang, are you still in touch with Geng Yan?¡±
Before she could finish, Luo Zhou interrupted her, shooting Dong Jia a look.
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°No, we lost contact after graduation.¡±
Luo Zhou patted Chen Cang, ¡°Haven¡¯t you found someone? By the way, where did you end up working?¡±
Chen Cang shook his head, ¡°After graduation, I first went to a private hospital, but I couldn¡¯t stand it after half a year. Just then, the provincial second hospital¡¯s emergency department was hiring temporaries, and I¡¯ve been there for more than two years now.¡±
¡°Working in the emergency department is so busy every day, where would I have time to date? So looking back, I think school days were the best.¡±
ps: I thank the Alliance Hierarch ¡®Sleeved and Silent, Man of Good Deeds¡¯ for the reward. Thank you. There will be five updates for today. Sorry for thete update. Toward the end of this month, I will add a lot more updates.
Chapter 214: 215: Little Benefactor, I Have Come to Repay Your Kindness!
Chapter 214: Chapter 215: Little Benefactor, I Have Come to Repay Your Kindness!
When the topic of work came up, the mood became heavy.
Luo Zhou looked at Chen Cang, ¡°Actually, what I¡¯m thinking is to stay in Anyang City with Jiajia, and besides, Jiajia has not yet graduated. I¡¯m hoping to find a job to start with, and keep an eye out for opportunities as we move along.¡±
Dong Jiaforted, ¡°I think it¡¯s also okay to go to the surrounding counties and cities. The sry is higher there, and the hospitals really value us after we arrive.¡±
¡°Unlike Anyang, as the capital of Dongyang Province, there¡¯s a huge influx of graduates every year. Local hospitals don¡¯t value us at all, and the selection process is not necessarily fair and just. It¡¯s all about finding connections, pulling strings, paying for positions¡ aplete mess smothered in corruption.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, that was indeed the reality. As a central city in Dongyang Province, its development was already a bit behind.
This backwardness was not only in terms of slow economic development but also ag in systems and mindsets.
Luo Zhou chuckled, ¡°It¡¯s also interesting when you think about it. Those impressive cities are all attracting talent, offering a bunch of incentives for undergraduates, even relocation allowances. But our great Anyang is so poor it¡¯s almostst, without any worry. It really is domineering. It¡¯s thiste and still no news; does the city really not fear losing all its talent?¡±
Dong Jia rolled her eyes at Luo Zhou, ¡°You¡¯re the one obsessing over Anyang. Anyone with capability has already left. Who would stay in this dump? Your senior graduatedst year and went to Anyang Central Hospital, a tier-three hospital, barely making six thousand a month. It¡¯s okay if you¡¯re not married, but what can you do with that if you are?¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°If there¡¯s an opportunity, it¡¯s better to go out. Graduates seeking higher education in coastal cities like Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Guangzhou, those are great ces. Shenzhen doesn¡¯t have a medical university, so their talent entirely depends on recruitment. I¡¯ve heard some seniors who went there got pretty good benefits, with starting annual sries over 200,000 right off the bat.¡±
Luo Zhou scratched his head, ¡°Cang Er, you know me, I¡¯m not one for great ambitions. A stable job, staying not far from home, being able to apany Jiajia¡ªthat¡¯s good enough for me.¡±
¡°Also, my parents and Jiajia¡¯s are getting older, too. They¡¯d feel more at ease with me in Anyang, and if something came up, like an illness, I could help out. If I were to leave, I wouldn¡¯t befortable with their situation.¡±
Dong Jia nced at Luo Zhou, cursing with her mouth, but her heart was sweet.
Luo Zhou continued, ¡°This weekend, there¡¯s a big recruitment fair at our school. Quite a fewrge tier-three hospitals from Anyang City are offering contract positions. I¡¯m going to give it a try.¡±
Chen Cang nodded, ¡°Yeah, even the provincial second hospital where I work has shifted to record-based employment. The treatment for contract workers is not bad. In our hospital¡¯s general surgery department, a contract worker, after passing the probation period and getting prescription rights, can make seven or eight thousand a month including bonuses.¡±
Chen Cang was referring to Zhou Xiaodong. Wang Yong earned more than Zhou Xiaodong because the emergency surgeries were frequent; he managed patients for Chen Cang, and together they performed dozens of operations a month. Ifst month¡¯s bonuses were counted, the figure could exceed ten thousand. However, knowing the hospital¡¯s character, it would probably take months before any bonuses were handed out.
Luo Zhou smiled, ¡°Provincial second hospital is still a provincial tier-three, after all. Among the dozens of tier-three hospitals big and small in Anyang City, to get into the top ten, thepetition must be tough.¡±
Upon hearing this, Dong Jia became unreceptive, ¡°Luo Zhou, I¡¯lle with you when the timees. I¡¯ll print out fifty copies of your resume. If you don¡¯t give them all out, you¡¯re not allowed to leave!¡±
Her words made everyoneugh.
After leaving the restaurant, Luo Zhou suddenly asked, ¡°Cang Er, why don¡¯t youe to my dorm and sit for a while? Let¡¯s rest our feet; the afternoon is still young.¡±
Chen Cang nodded and asked, ¡°Are there any people in the dorm?¡±
Luo Zhou, ¡°Basically, everyone has moved out. I haven¡¯t because Jiajia is still in her dorm, but they¡¯re all around the campus. We can get together tonight.¡±
Chen Cang hummed a response.
Back when Chen Cang was in ss, he got along well with everyone. After all, there weren¡¯t many boys in the medical school, so they all got on pretty well, ying games and basketball together asionally.
The dormitory supervisor, Auntie, had just finished her meal and was walking by the ss door of the dormitory building to aid her digestion when she noticed Luo Zhou bringing Chen Cang over.
She was suddenly stunned, ¡°Eh? Aren¡¯t you that boy? What¡¯s your name again¡?¡±
Chen Cangughed, ¡°Auntie, you still remember me?¡±
Auntie couldn¡¯t help but smile, ¡°How could I forget? You guys from that dorm often forgot your keys and came to borrow from me; I remember each and every one of you clearly.¡±
¡°But it¡¯s been a few years since I¡¯ve seen you, have you started working?¡±
Chen Cang nodded with a smile, ¡°Yeah, I¡¯ve started working.¡±
Auntie nodded with satisfaction, ¡°Not bad, Auntie always thought highly of you.¡±
Luo Zhou sighed, ¡°Auntie, in all these years you haven¡¯t changed a bit, still judging people by their looks!¡±
The aunt burst intoughter, ¡°I may not have any other skills, but I sure remember faces well! Are you nning to stay even after graduation, waiting for me to kick you out?¡±
The school dormitory didn¡¯t allow just anyone in, and this dormitory caretaker aunt was like a pair of discerning eyes¡ªseemingly inconspicuous, she could pick out anyone she hadn¡¯t seen before.
Luo Zhou was supposed to move out of the dormitory after graduation, but he had asked Guan Wei to put in a good word for him, which dyed the move a bit.
After all, renting a ce outside was quite expensive, so he figured he¡¯d wait until he got a job.
When he returned to the dormitory, no one was there except for his bed which still had a quilt on it, and the rest of the ce was quite tidy.
The weather was a bit hot, so Luo Zhou stripped off his T-shirt, bared his torso, and said, ¡°Cang Er, you go sleep on my bed for a while.¡±
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°No need, I¡¯m not tired.¡±
Luo Zhouughed, ¡°Well then¡ how about we y a round? Are you still gaming?¡±
As he spoke, Luo Zhou immediately opened LoL and logged in, with the familiar ¡®weng¡¯ sound starting up.
Chen Cang smiled, ¡°You go ahead, I¡¯ll watch you y.¡±
The familiar college days, they were spent just like this.
¡
¡
In the afternoon, Chen Cang started with ss assignments, ording to the specialty training hospitals, since everyone was usually in the hospital for specialized training, this made ss management more convenient.
There were quite a few specialty training hospitals for Dongyang Medical University¡¯s graduates this year, and only about thirty trainees were assigned to the Second Provincial Hospital.
A small ss of just over thirty people was indeed exquisite.
Twenty girls and ten boys.
However¡ Chen Cang suddenly noticed the chubby guy sitting beside him who was giving him a strange smile seemed familiar.
¡°ssmate¡ no grudges, no hatreds, why are you staring at me?¡± Chen Cang held back for a long time, but he couldn¡¯t stand it anymore, stared at the plump head next to him, and said seriously.
Qian Lin was startled at first, then burst intoughter, ¡°My benefactor, my name is Qian Lin. To be honest, I¡¯m here to repay a kindness!¡±
Chen Cang was dumbfounded.
When others repay a kindness, they turn into a fair youngdy¡ªwhat kind of repayment is yours, more like a visit for vengeance, right?
If you¡¯re here to repay a kindness with your dignified appearance, you¡¯re definitely looking for a high-ssdy.
But¡
If he really was here to repay a kindness, I couldn¡¯t afford to miss out, right?
Chen Cang racked his brain trying to remember, had he ever given a steamed bun to a homeless kid? Or saved a child with an intellectual disability in the hospital.
But he just couldn¡¯t link himself with this 190-pound man.
Still, Chen Cang pondered for a while, perhaps he really did save him?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Looking at his current attire, he must havee into some money; he couldn¡¯t waste any opportunities. What if it was a chance given by the heavens?
With this in mind, Chen Cang still said earnestly, ¡°Just give me the cash value!¡±
Chapter 215: 216: Geng Yan!
Chapter 215: Chapter 216: Geng Yan!
Chen Cang¡¯s ¡°Just discount it!¡± left Qian Linpletely dumbfounded.
Qian Lin had thought Chen Cang was a dedicated, hardworking, earnest, and serious person who didn¡¯t crack jokes¡ªa real role model, as one would expect of an academic whiz.
But here he was, encountering a joker!
Qian Lin waved his hands, ¡°It¡¯s not about the money!¡±
Chen Cang shifted in his seat, ¡°I don¡¯t have any romantic debts, and I don¡¯t have a history of debauchery. Even if I did, the child wouldn¡¯t be as big as you.¡±
Qian Lin blushed with shame. Damn, I¡¯ve met my match¡ this guy is even thicker-skinned than me!
Thinking this, Qian Lin, afraid that Chen Cang might get the wrong idea, quickly said, ¡°No, no, no, brother, listen to me. Qian Liang is my uncle!¡±
Chen Cang was stunned and swallowed hard. What do you mean by that? Are you threatening me?
There are so many people with the surname Qian, why don¡¯t you say your grandfather is Triple Qian? I might actually have believed that¡
Qian Lin continued, ¡°My uncle wanted me to apply for the graduate program under the female demon Meng Xi. Thanks to you, brother, you saved me from a dire situation, allowing me to escape the sea of suffering!¡±
Chen Cang was puzzled, ¡°What do you mean?¡±
Qian Lin, surprised, looked at Chen Cang, ¡°You don¡¯t know?¡±
Chen Cang looked clueless, ¡°Know what?¡±
Chen Cang suddenly felt that he mightck an understanding of Meng Xi.
Qian Lin went on, ¡°Hey, it seems you really don¡¯t get it, or else you wouldn¡¯t have brazenly gone to sign up with the female demon Meng Xi! Let me tell you about it so you¡¯re forewarned. How tough is Director Meng? Definitely as tough as a calf, no question about it. But she¡¯s too intense and too strict. I was under Director Meng for a month and I lost more than 20 pounds. Up early and outte, surgeries during the day, papers at night, even meal times were busy. It was such torment, I felt like I was falling apart¡¡±
¡°I just want a peaceful time during graduate school, to find a partner, fall in love, get a stable job after graduating, have a chubby son, and live a simple life.¡±
¡°If I had followed Director Meng, wouldn¡¯t my life be ruined? That¡¯s why I¡¯m so grateful.¡±
¡°So, brother, you saved me from a dire situation, how could I not be grateful?¡±
Chen Cang understood it then, that was the story.
However,pared to what he had received, what was this trivial matter?
After all, Director Meng had unlocked three skill trees for him, and those were purple skill trees, no less.
How could he not endure some hardships?
Moreover, he still had to work hard to win over Meng Xi, to gain her favor and continuously unlock new skills!
¡
¡
After a while, a teacher from the graduate student office came in, and it was naturally time to start exining some matters, including the special training program, sses, and a whole series of work.
Chen Cang wasn¡¯t too concerned, as his graduate studies were just for getting a degree. For his clinical training, he would stay at his own hospital, without the need to rotate departments.
As for sses, he could choose a few that interested him to attend.
Around four in the afternoon, the teacher made a temporary decision to appoint Qian Lin as ss monitor.
Only then did Chen Cang realize that this chubby guy in front of him had actually scored more than four hundred points on the entrance exam?
This made Chen Cang believe more in the saying, when God closes a door, he nails it shut¡ªyou had better find a window early on¡
The more talented they are, the more entric¡
What pleased Chen Cang, though, was that among the twenty or so girls in the ss, quite a few were good-looking. This made him look forward even more to his uing graduate student life.
After the small ss meeting ended, everyone was to attend the hospital¡¯s weing ceremony for new students.
The presence of Qian Lin made Chen Cang feel that the weather wasn¡¯t so hot anymore; the big guy truly provided a shady spot for him, bringing a hint of coolness as they walked.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Really, it¡¯s quite cool under a big fat guy.
Chen Cang had no interest in the afternoon induction ceremony, but Qian Lin was full of excitement.
¡°This is our school¡¯s 60th-anniversary celebration. They¡¯ve invited quite a few big names, as well as some outstanding seniors. Let¡¯s go take a look.¡±
As soon as they entered the venue, Chen Cang saw Dong Jia wearing a red banner, probably to receive those alumni returning to the school.
Luo Zhou, on the other hand, was chatting with a group of people on the side¡ªpeople Chen Cang was very familiar with, apparently all former ssmates of his.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Chen Cang walk in!
¡°Damn! Cang Er, you¡¯re here too?¡±
¡°Yeah! Haven¡¯t seen you in a long time, where have you been hanging out?¡±
¡°Cang Er, you¡¯re not the big shot our school invited to speak at the sixtieth anniversary, are you?¡±
A bunch of people started to make a fuss, and Qian Lin, who loved to join in the excitement, stood by and watched. His interest in Chen Cang was much stronger than in participating in the ceremony.
Chen Cang gave an embarrassed smile, ¡°I am here to attend the mobilization meeting today, that¡¯s correct!¡±
When everyone heard this, they immediately started jeering, ¡°Wow, impressive, huh? Tell us, what have you done in these three years to reach the summit of life so quickly?¡±
¡°You didn¡¯t get epted for a Ph.D. at Xiehe, did you?¡±
Indeed, this time they had invited quite a few students who had been epted into prestigious schools to spread positive energy.
Chen Cang cleared his throat and gave a sheepish smile, ¡°I did get epted!¡±
¡°But¡ it¡¯s at our school as a graduate student!¡±
¡°I am here as a new student for the new student mobilization meeting!¡±
After Chen Cang finished speaking, everyone was first taken aback, then burst intoughter.
But no one made fun of Chen Cang; everyone was an adult, and at most, they would crack a joke.
¡°Come on, Cang Er, from now on you¡¯ll have to address us as ¡®senior.''¡±
¡°Right, right, right! Say it, let¡¯s hear it!¡±
While the crowd was razzing him, Chen Cang suddenly stood up and turned his head, ¡°I¡¯m going to use the restroom.¡±
Everyone was taken aback, thinking Chen Cang might be upset.
But as they turned around, they suddenly saw a woman walking over.
Everyone paused for a moment.
The woman was walking beside a tall andrge man, and they really looked like a handsome couple.
Luo Zhou¡¯s face changed at once. Geng Yan?
Everyone was stunned as well.
Geng Yan was also here for the event?
No, that¡¯s not right, who is the man beside Geng Yan? Geng Yan¡¯s partner isn¡¯t Chen Cang¡
Suddenly, everyone realized why Chen Cang had gone to the restroom.
So that¡¯s it¡
Seeing everyone, Geng Yan happily walked over, ¡°Luo Zhou, Qian Lin, you guys are here too?¡±
Luo Zhou nodded with a smile, ¡°Geng Yan, long time no see.¡±
Geng Yan smiled, ¡°Indeed, it¡¯s been three years; time really flies.¡±
At that moment, a fashionably dressed girl approached, ¡°Luo Zhou, you overlook me just because you saw the goddess? That¡¯s too much.¡±
Luo Zhou looked up, ¡°Xu Huihui? You¡¯re here too? It looks like we can have a lively reunion this time.¡±
Geng Yan nodded with a smile, ¡°Of course, after graduating from undergrad, we never really gathered together. We should make the most of this time.¡±
Xu Huihui looked at the tall, handsome, and refined man beside Geng Yan with encouragement, ¡°Geng Yan, aren¡¯t you going to introduce us? Who is this?¡±
Geng Yan smiled with happiness, ¡°This is my husband, Jing Ran, who is also a senior alumnus from our school.¡±
Jing Ran greeted everyone with a suave smile, ¡°Hello everyone, I am Jing Ran.¡±
People nodded in response, and at that moment, everyone knew who he was!
The legendary senior brother Jing Ran.
The same one, who during his undergraduate years had published two SCI papers, causing a sensation across the whole school. One of his proposed ideas was bought by a pharmaceuticalpany for nearly a million yuan. Later, he pursued his graduate studies at Xiehe and was rmended for direct admission to their doctoral program.
Chapter 216: 217: Dont you want to defeat him in the field hes best at?
Chapter 216: Chapter 217: Don¡¯t you want to defeat him in the field he¡¯s best at?
¡°`
Jing Ran¡¯s story could be called an exemry tale held up by the school!
Such a story of an academic overachiever was like an adrenaline rush to those students inexperienced in the ways of the world, stirring a fiery passion in them!
Even Xu Huihui¡¯s eyes shone with excitement, ¡°Wow, so you¡¯re the senior Jing Ran, I had no idea you were this handsome!¡±
It must be said, the name Jing Ran was truly legendary at Dongyang Medical University.
Luo Zhou couldn¡¯t help but feel a twinge in his heart. Thankfully, Chen Cang had just left. Otherwise, how awkward would that have been?
Comparing an ex-boyfriend with the current one is a terribly embarrassing affair.
Even Qian Lin and a few others let out a small sigh.
Though Jing Ran was impressive, they didn¡¯t have the best rtionship with him; frankly, they weren¡¯t in the same league. They could respect him, utter a ¡°you¡¯re awesome,¡± but that was about it, with no need for ttery.
But all couldn¡¯t help feeling a twinge of regret, remembering how good Chen Cang and Geng Yan were together during their university days.
Such a pity¡
Xu Huihui curiously asked, ¡°Senior Jing Ran, did the school invite you to the anniversary celebration?¡±n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jing Ran nodded, his voice maic, ¡°Yes, the school sent me an invitation for the celebration, so here I am.¡±
Everyone fell silent; they had been asked to volunteer and help out, whereas he had been invited to attend the ceremony, highlighting a vast difference.
Luo Zhou couldn¡¯t help but feel contemtive. Chen Cang, oh Chen Cang, your rival is too formidable; I¡¯m afraid there¡¯s no way I can help.
Suddenly, Xu Huihui said, ¡°Senior Jing Ran, you¡¯re not in a hurry to return to the capital, are you? After the ceremony is over, Geng Yan, why not bring Senior Jing Ran along for a gathering?¡±
Geng Yan nodded; this boyfriend truly had an impressive presence!
Especially in Dongyang Province, where he could be proudly introduced anywhere.
Hearing Xu Huihui¡¯s words, Geng Yan covered her mouth andughed, ¡°No rush to go back, no, actually, I¡¯m not going back.¡±
Everyone was surprised: ¡°Not going back?¡±
Geng Yan¡¯s face radiated happiness, ¡°Yes, I¡¯m not going back. Jing Ran was recruited back here by Dong University¡¯s First Hospital to be the deputy chief of thoracic surgery. He¡¯s preparing to start working.¡±
Luo Zhou and the others immediately felt envious!
Now that¡¯s impressive!
There was simply noparison. They were struggling to find work after graduation, while he was brought in as a deputy director. Jing Ran was only six years older than them and had spent two to three years in a postdoctoral fellowship program after earning his Ph.D.
Plus, he skipped the newbie phase right after arriving and directly took the position of deputy director. With such capability, it was truly enviable!
Xu Huihui eximed in admiration, ¡°That¡¯s amazing, to be appointed deputy director right away, I¡¯m so envious!¡±
After saying this, Xu Huihui suddenly asked with curiosity, ¡°By the way, Geng Yan, you¡¯re graduating this year too, right? Aren¡¯t you going to work?¡±
Geng Yan smiled gently, ¡°When Dong University¡¯s First Hospital leaders were discussing conditions with Jing Ran, he hoped to bring me over, and Dean Liu agreed. I¡¯ll be starting work too, at the First Hospital¡¯s cardiology department.¡±
¡°So, we have plenty of time for get-togethers now!¡±
Xu Huihui nodded, ¡°Geng Yan, you and Senior Jing Ran are about to get married, right?¡±
Geng Yan nodded, ¡°Yes, nning to marry this year. When we came over, Jing Ran signed a contract with the hospital, which allocated us an apartment. We¡¯ll get married once it¡¯s renovated; remember to join us for the celebration when the timees!¡±
Jing Ran looked at everyone, smiled, and said, ¡°Folks, the meeting is starting, and I have to give a speech soon, so I won¡¯t chat more. Another day, I¡¯ll host a gathering for us all.¡±
After speaking, Jing Ran and Geng Yan walked towards the inner area.
Leaving the others steeped in a myriad of emotions.
Xu Huihui called out, ¡°Geng Yan, wait for me.¡±
After finishing her sentence, Xu Huihui followed them inside.
Luo Zhou sighed and thought of Chen Cang, and then of Jing Ran. Suddenly he felt that if he were in Geng Yan¡¯s shoes, he might also choose Jing Ran. After all, the difference was too great.
Just arriving, Jing Ran was offered a deputy director role, a house, and his wife had a job arranged; his life was spared the struggles of tens of yearspared to their own, and most importantly, his future prospects were boundless.
Qian Lin stood to one side, watched the whole scene from start to finish, and remained silent.
Then he slowly asked Luo Zhou, ¡°Senior, what¡¯s the rtionship between Geng Yan¡ and Chen Cang?¡±
¡°`
Luo Zhou was stunned for a moment before turning to look at Qian Lin. ¡°Geng Yan and Chen Cang were a couple in university, quite the center of attention back then. After Geng Yan went to the capital for her postgraduate studies, we lost touch with their story. But¡ as you can see now, you¡¯ve seen it too.¡±
Qian Lin nodded. As for Jing Ran, even though they were several years apart, he had asionally heard about such a prodigy from Dongyang University.
Could it be that his little benefactor was¡ a love rival?
Thinking of this, Qian Lin couldn¡¯t help but feel a bit more hostile towards Geng Yan and Jing Ran.
After all, this kind of plot usually only urs in novels and TV dramas.
Qian Lin had already imagined a storyline where Geng Yan had abandoned Chen Cang from start to finish.
At this thought, Qian Lin sighed.
Reality turned out to be more melodramatic than fiction!
¡
Chen Cang was standing in the restroom, feeling the urge to leave the ce.
He truly hadn¡¯t expected to run into Geng Yan here.
And¡ who was the man with his arm around her?
With those thoughts, Chen Cang shook his head.
The past was already past, what was the point in dwelling on such matters?
Besides, Geng Yan¡¯s affairs had long since ceased to concern him.
It wasn¡¯t that he couldn¡¯t let go, but more that he felt a bit unwilling to do so.
Three years had been enough time to let go of many things.
What Chen Cang had put behind was Geng Yan, but what he couldn¡¯t swallow was his pride.
We¡¯re all adults; there isn¡¯t so much fairness, let aloneughable justice.
To put it bluntly, Chen Cang could disregard Geng Yanpletely, even treating her as a stranger, but he couldn¡¯t stand being shown off in front of, being told: look, he¡¯s much better than you!
So, Chen Cang left.
Ultimately, it still came down to not being strong enough.
If it had been just Geng Yaning, Chen Cang might have greeted her with a smile, saying, ¡°Long time no see.¡±
But now, Chen Cang shook his head with a smile.
It would be best not to see her again.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Having said that, Chen Cang was about to leave.
The so-called mobilization meeting didn¡¯t seem to hold much significance for him.
Just then, Qian Lin walked in and upon seeing Chen Cang standing there, couldn¡¯t help saying, ¡°I thought you had fallen in.¡±
Chen Cang: ¡°¡The pit is a bit small.¡±
Qian Lin: ¡
¡°Let¡¯s go, it¡¯s about to start. Aren¡¯t you going to check it out?¡±
Chen Cang shook his head: ¡°Not going, I¡¯ve got something.¡±
Qian Lin suddenly smiled: ¡°Don¡¯t be in such a hurry. Don¡¯t you want to know who that guy is?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t you want to know what he¡¯s best at?¡±
¡°Don¡¯t you want to know what it feels like to beat him in his strongest area?¡±
¡°Little benefactor, go for it! Why be timid?¡±
ps: I¡¯ve reorganized the plot a bit, and the burst of updates will continue. Author, keep it up!
In the future, I will make the update time more precise, at each 12 o¡¯clock, one in the morning and one in the evening. For each mistake, I¡¯ll add an extra update. (over a 10-minute difference)
Chapter 217: 218: Assigning the Task (Extra for VV9897)
Chapter 217: Chapter 218: Assigning the Task (Extra for VV9897)
Qian Lin¡¯s words stirred Chen Cang¡¯s heart!
Why did it sound so appealing?
It felt like his blood was boiling!
Imagining a certain indescribable scene in the future, Chen Cang couldn¡¯t help but get a little excited¡
Chen Cang, ¡°Could it be¡ not good?¡±
Qian Lin, with righteous indignation, ¡°How could it not be good, big brother? It¡¯s a matter of stealing a wife, you¡¯ve been cuckolded to that extent and it¡¯s still not okay?¡±
That statement¡ instantly ignited the fire in Chen Cang¡¯s small universe.
Chen Cang stood up and walked away, and Qian Lin couldn¡¯t resist pping his hands, ¡°That¡¯s the spirit!¡±
¡°No! We broke up first, it¡¯s not called being cuckolded¡¡± Chen Cang suddenly turned around and seriously said.
Qian Lin was stunned and fell silent, ¡°Are you just going to swallow the indignity and that¡¯s that!?¡±
Chen Cang was silent, even though he didn¡¯t care about Geng Yan anymore, being surpassed by her current boyfriend felt just like the taste of old pickled vegetables, sour and pungent. (I don¡¯t know if you¡¯ve ever¡)
¡
¡
The two entered the venue and found a ce to sit down.
The president gave a speech; after all, it was a motivational assembly, and the president had to say something.
However, for Qian Lin and Chen Cang, who were armed with notebooks, the speech was clearly a waste of time.
At this point, the president finished the speech, and Qian Liang took the stage.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Chen Cang nudged Qian Lin, ¡°Your uncle¡¯s on the stage now.¡±
Qian Lin remained silent, and Chen Cang, curious, turned his head to see Qian Lin holding a notebook, scribbling and sketching.
Suddenly, Chen Cang was stunned!
¡°What are you writing?¡±
Qian Lin smiled mysteriously, ¡°Starting on hell mode!¡±
After that, Qian Lin took out his cell phone and showed Chen Cang, ¡°See? These are Jing Ran¡¯s existing achievements! We have to break them one by one!¡±
¡°But don¡¯t worry, I have already categorized the various stages and tasks for you.¡±
Afterwards, Qian Lin passed the notebook to Chen Cang, ¡°Look, in his freshman year, he won the National Inspirational Schrship, the Fen Liquor Inspirational Schrship, in his sophomore year¡ in his junior year he sessfully published his first national core academic paper, in his senior year he published his first paper with an impact factor of 1.3 in sci, in his fifth year, he participated in the College Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, won the Jinshang Cup Youth Entrepreneurship Competition¡¯s first prize, securing an entrepreneurial fund of 200,000 yuan, and in the same year, after perfecting his idea, it was bought by Reed Pharmaceutical Company for a pre-tax price of one million yuan, and then he published a paper with an impact factor of 4.7 in sci.¡±
¡°These are all his undergraduate achievements, and that year he was admitted to Xiehe with a high score of 451 points. I¡¯ve also looked into his brilliant record at Xiehe!¡±
After saying this, Qian Lin looked at Chen Cang with a vicarious sense of pride, ¡°Little benefactor, rest assured, with me here, we will crush this Jing Ran thoroughly, letting him understand that finding a girlfriend requires learning how to analyze ¡®mate analysis¡¯, and properly figure out how awesome his ex-boyfriend is!¡±
¡°Now, we¡¯re just missing some data, and overall, we¡¯re almost done.¡±
Chen Cang looked at the notebook Qian Lin handed over with a dumbfounded face, speechless, thinking, ¡°Are you here to tease me?¡±
Looking at Jing Ran¡¯s achievements one by one on the notebook, Qian Lin sighed, ¡°I figure, the specific information shouldn¡¯t be too far off from the real situation. Now we just wait for his speech, to see if there¡¯s anything that¡¯s notpletely ounted for, and we¡¯ll just refine everything!¡±
¡°Little benefactor, don¡¯t worry. Based on my years of attending speeches and being in the audience, when he gives his speech, he¡¯ll definitely brag about his glorious deeds of the past years. We¡¯ll reorganize and summarize at that time. The spreadsheet will bepleted!¡±
¡
As expected, after the leader finished speaking, it was Jing Ran¡¯s turn.
At this moment, Qian Liang said to everyone, ¡°Today, we have specially invited some outstanding graduates from Dongyang Medical University. Next up, please wee our outstanding graduate representative Jing Ran to the stage to speak. Let¡¯s give him a round of apuse!¡±
Instantly, apuse erupted below, enthusiastically extraordinary, indicating that Jing Ran was indeed very popr!
At this moment, Qian Lin and Chen Cang also widened their eyes and carefully sized up Geng Yan¡¯s current boyfriend.
Jing Ran walked to the stage with calm and casual elegance, dressed in a formal suit, which, paired with his shiny hair, truly made him look stylish!
But¡
This man was not as handsome as himself.
Um, it was a face valuepetition!
Completely victorious¡
Next was the talent¡
¡°Hello everyone, I am Jing Ran. Perhaps the juniors and sophomores present do not know me, so let me introduce myself¡¡±
A whole bunch of stuff.
¡°Medicine is not just a clinical discipline; it is also a science. We must continuously improve medicine so that it can better serve us in clinical practice.¡±
¡°After I graduated from the postdoctoral station at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences Fuwai Cardiovascr Disease Hospital, I was fortunate to be invited by Dean Liu to return to my alma mater to work.¡±
