Chapter 466: The Main Event

Li Zhuren communicated with the Patient and confirmed they would be admitted to the Interventional Department to prepare for surgery.

The guests interacted with one another, guiding the audience's emotions while explaining small details that the audience might not have known.

The content that followed was more "reality show" style, but those who could understand it were immersed in it, their minds not actually on the reality show itself.

Fan Dao watched the steadily climbing data, his heart blooming with joy.

It seemed Ji Xiang truly lived up to his name; he had unceremoniously become a mascot.

As the camera shifted from Ji Xiang to others, the viewership data also showed a slow decline.

Fan Dao did not mind; the bomb for this episode was not at the beginning.

Fan Dao felt that the messy affairs within the medical circle would not resonate with the general audience and were also prone to offending people.

Fan Dao knew full well who was bigger and who was smaller between the entertainment circle and the medical circle.

If a big shot in the medical circle really took action, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to afford the offense. Therefore, that part of Ji Xiang's speech was blurred out; if not for Li Zhuren's insistence, Fan Dao would have really wanted to cut that conflict out entirely.

During personal time, Yang Zhuren invited Ji Xiang to eat, while the other Interns went to eat noodles after working overtime; the disparity in treatment was huge, making one unable to bear it.

"Yan'er, does your hospital treat people like beasts of burden?" Feng Yuqing asked with a chuckle as she saw the three Interns go to eat noodles after finishing their overtime.

"It's pretty much like that. If you don't work overtime, you can't finish the work, and if you don't finish the work, people will say you lack the attitude of healing the wounded and rescuing the dying." Tang Yan curled her lips, clearly not approving of this sentiment.

That was how it was said, but no one could do anything about it.

"The Zhuren or... what you call the senior doctors, if you don't complete the tasks, they will scold people too, right?"

"It depends on the person." Tang Yan explained, "Some Zhuren and Attending Professors have good tempers and generally don't make things difficult for junior doctors. But some people are different; they work junior doctors to death, and some even make them help look after their children."

"Look after children?"

"It's mainly the Standardized Training Doctors who are made to do it. After all, Standardized Training Doctors aren't considered 'family.' They are made to fetch food, clean up, and look after children. In short, all the miscellaneous chores are thrown at the Standardized Training Doctors."

"Hahaha, it seems your hospital has a hierarchy too."

"Not just the hospital; wherever there are people, there is a hierarchy." Tang Yan said, "For things like overtime, if you encounter a better Resident Chief or professor, they will treat you to a meal. If they don't go out to eat, they'll order in. There are also cases like this, where people just go out and grab a bite to eat before going home to rest."

"By the way, Sister Yuqing, I heard an Orthopedics Department doctor say that one day he asked a Standardized Training Doctor to order food, and the Standardized Training Doctor asked if they could order meat dishes."

"What does that mean?" Feng Yuqing completely failed to get the point Tang Yan was making.

"The teaching doctor in the previous department was extremely stingy. Even when ordering food, they wouldn't let the students order meat dishes, just telling them to order shredded potatoes or green pepper with dried tofu to get by. I just don't understand, what's wrong with treating a student to a meal?"

On the screen, the three Interns had already sat down and were chatting about something.

"Your lives are truly dull." Feng Yuqing said.

"It's just going to work and earning money; there's no plot." Tang Yan smiled, "Those people who can find time for hobbies are not like the stories written in books. Books say young people accumulate strength and wait for the right moment, but in reality, they likely live just like everyone else who is 'lying flat'."

"Is that so?"

"Yeah, in Ji Xiang's medical team, there is an old Attending Physician who was transferred up from a lower-level hospital. It's said that since he was young, he was willing to ponder all sorts of things, but he never managed to get ahead. In the end..."

As she spoke, the camera angle shifted, and two of the three Interns had already stood up.

On screen, a middle-aged man was squatting on the ground outside, vomiting.

The Interns went out to see what was happening, and at this moment, the sound of the Camera Crew dialing the 120 emergency number could be heard.

"Did they go to meddle in other people's business?" Feng Yuqing asked curiously.

"In previous years, they weren't allowed to, saying it was illegal medical practice." Tang Yan said, "Later, the National Health Commission explicitly stated that participating in rescue efforts does not constitute illegal practice."

"How could it be illegal?"

"For example, Sister Yuqing, this Patient might have acute gastroenteritis, which belongs to the Digestive Medicine Department; it could also be spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage, which belongs to the Neurology and Neurosurgery Department. If doctors from other departments are in the hospital, they indeed lack the qualifications to provide treatment."

"Oh, so that's how it is."

As the two chatted, the footage had already followed the Patient's vomiting.

"Huh? The color is wrong." Tang Yan looked at the vomit and gave her judgment immediately.

Feng Yuqing couldn't look at the vomit, feeling disgusted, and turned her head away.

"You see these things every day, isn't it disgusting?"

"It's alright, we're used to it. It's mainly the Nursing Department, damn it!" Tang Yan cursed, "For a while, the Nursing Department made the Clinical nurses wash the Patients' feet. Isn't that insane!"

"Hahaha." Feng Yuqing laughed out loud.

"No, wait, there's a problem with the color."

The guests in the Review Room were also chatting, and just at this moment, the Patient squatting on the ground retching suddenly stiffened, and like a puppet, collapsed to the ground in a squatting position.

The three little Interns were frightened into staying where they were, motionless. The one holding a pen even wanted to raise their hands to explain to people that the Patient falling to the ground wasn't their fault.

"Oh my, what happened?!" Feng Yuqing was startled.

Tang Yan didn't answer; she stood up abruptly, habitually preparing for emergency rescue.

Within a few seconds, pink liquid suddenly "sprayed" from the Patient's nostrils, and pink phlegm flowed from the corners of their mouth.

"Ah!" Feng Yuqing felt very terrified by everything happening before her eyes and covered her eyes with both hands, but peeked through the gaps between her fingers.

"No, the Patient's breathing is failing!" Tang Yan said hurriedly.

"Move aside!" Yang Zhuren pushed the stunned little Interns and the onlookers aside and rushed up to prepare for rescue.

Feng Yuqing watched this scene without blinking, feeling exceptionally curious.

She rarely saw similar situations, and since it was a matter of life and death that concerned everyone, she was very curious.

The curiosity of other viewers was also piqued by this sudden incident.

This was a coincidence; it was hard to tell if it was the Patient's Luck or the production team's Luck, or if both were lucky.

Yang Zhuren handled it very professionally; the main focus was not on alleviating symptoms, but on preventing aspiration.

But as the pink foamy liquid flowed out, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Patient's condition was critical.

Tang Yan clenched her fists, unable to exert any strength.

Meanwhile, Feng Yuqing watched the screen with full concentration, watching Yang Zhuren's Emergency Rescue, filled with curiosity.

The Patient's state continued to deteriorate, deteriorating at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even Feng Yuqing knew it was not looking good.

Coupled with the detail that Yang Zhuren habitually asked for the scalpel, a bad premonition arose in her heart.

The Patient is not going to make it.
