Chapter 762: Hierarchy and Status

This is... too damn tactless, Liu Zhuren thought with some helplessness.

He figured Wei Fusi had drunk a bit too much, and since this man had poor drinking habits, it added another reason to Liu Zhuren's mind to stop associating with him.

Zhou Tianbo was also helpless; he sighed.

There was no way to persuade him, as he knew exactly what kind of person Wei Fusi was.

So, they could only rush to the hospital together.

Liu Zhuren sent several messages to Wu Zong in succession, warning him not to let anything slip.

He would stop associating with Wei Fusi in the future, but he absolutely could not fall out with him to his face.

Doing so was completely unnecessary.

Arriving at the ICU, Wu Zong was squatting at the entrance waiting; seeing the director arrive, he immediately went up to report the patient's condition.

Liu Zhuren's face was gloomy.

In the middle of the night, forced to rush to the hospital to participate in a rescue, and having to bring someone like Wei Fusi along—it was truly disgusting.

But since things had reached this point, he could only bite the bullet and go in.

"Xiao Ji is here too!" After entering the ICU, Liu Zhuren saw Ji Xiang at a glance.

"Liu Zhuren, why are you here too?" Ji Xiang had just come out of the System Operating Room and was also stunned to see Liu Zhuren walk in.

Liu Zhuren gave a wry smile, offered no explanation, and went straight to the bedside to check on the patient.

He didn't even introduce Wei Fusi to Ji Xiang.

Such Experts were as common as grass in the country; Liu Zhuren believed that Ji Xiang's current level was actually no lower than Wei Fusi's, only that he was young and lacked seniority.

Introduce Wei Fusi to Ji Xiang? That wouldn't be worth offending people over.

Xiao Ji looked kind, but in reality... anyway, Qin Chu from Shanghai had been roasted like a dog.

After asking about the medical history and looking at the lab reports and the opinions of the ICU Resident Chief and the on-duty professor, Liu Zhuren said, "A very simple post-transfusion Hemolytic Reaction; it looks like it's going to be tough."

The patient's blood pressure was very low, coupled with severe multi-organ failure and so on; anyone who had treated similar patients knew the situation was not optimistic.

"What a pity," Wei Fusi said softly.

As soon as Zhou Tianbo heard Wei Fusi open his mouth, he hurriedly bumped him with his shoulder, letting Wei Fusi swallow the rest of his words.

Some things could be thought, but absolutely could not be spoken aloud.

Wei Fusi had become obsessed with performing surgery, and with a bit of alcohol in him, he had no filter.

Zhou Tianbo didn't feel comfortable either; it seemed he should associate less with Wei Fusi in the future, or at the very least, not be with him after he had been drinking.

"Director, since you're here, I suggest a Kidney biopsy," Ji Xiang said.

"Kidney biopsy? His hematuria has nothing to do with a biopsy." Liu Zhuren answered with a smile, looking at Ji Xiang, "I know you're anxious, but the patient's condition is very clear; doing a Kidney biopsy is meaningless."

"Director, a Kidney biopsy can clarify the diagnosis..."

Before Ji Xiang could finish his sentence, Wei Fusi snorted coldly, "A young Doctor, why so much talk!"

Zhou Tianbo hurriedly grabbed Wei Fusi.

"Why are you pulling me? A Resident Physician—the director says what he says; is there no sense of hierarchy?"

Zhou Tianbo was miserable.

Liu Zhuren frowned slightly, not hesitating at all.

"Fine, I... I just drank, let Wu Laozong do it, and I'll watch from the side. For the Kidney biopsy test, I'll call the director of the Laboratory Department and find someone to do it immediately."

The ICU Resident Chief and the professor were stunned; Liu Zhuren was actually going to wake up the director of the Laboratory Department in the middle of the night to arrange a test.

Their thoughts were the same as Wei Fusi's, but no one expected Liu Zhuren to indulge Ji Xiang like this.

Truly a treasure that couldn't be touched.

Moreover, they realized clearly that Liu Zhuren hadn't wanted to do it originally, thinking it unnecessary. But one sentence from Wei Fusi had stirred up Liu Zhuren's protective instincts.

Was doing this really appropriate?

"Director, what are we checking for with the Kidney biopsy?" the ICU professor asked in a low voice.

Liu Zhuren looked at Ji Xiang.

"A Kidney biopsy is an invasive procedure; the patient is already like this, is it necessary?" Wei Fusi grumbled.

Zhou Tianbo tried to stop him, but failed.

"It's like this: the patient's acute Hemolytic Reaction is too severe; I suspect there is a problem with the blood type used for the Blood Transfusion."

Xu Leyu was standing to the side, minding his own business, when he suddenly heard Ji Xiang's words and nearly fell on his butt.

He hadn't offended Ji Xiang, so why was he picking up a pot of filth and dumping it on his head?

"We checked the Blood Transfusion form repeatedly; there's no problem," the ICU Resident Chief explained, trying to squeeze out a smile.

"It's not our problem; I suspect the patient has Lupus, and the Metamorphic Reaction caused an error when testing the blood type."

"???"

"???"

A bunch of question marks appeared over many of the Doctors' heads.

"That's nonsense." Wei Fusi's alcohol hit him; hearing Ji Xiang "spouting nonsense" here made him angry, and he directly started mocking.

"You, a Resident Physician, who is your superior? Which teacher taught you this?"

"I am a Standardized Training Doctor," Ji Xiang replied politely and courteously.

Wei Fusi was stunned for a moment, caught between laughter and tears.

A Standardized Training Doctor?

A Standardized Training Doctor!

Whose Standardized Training Doctor would be so arrogant, daring to spout nonsense in the ICU during an Emergency Rescue?

And Lupus causing an error in blood type testing—is this damn thing reliable!

"That is the situation." Liu Zhuren pondered, then beckoned, "Has the Family Member been found?"

The Medical Record was written as "John Doe"; it was clear that when the Patient arrived at the hospital, no Family Member was accompanying them.

"Found, but they haven't arrived yet."

"Give me the phone." Liu Zhuren did not use his own mobile phone, but instead used the ICU phone to dial the contact number of the Patient's Family Member.

There are too many telecommunications scams nowadays; if the other party doesn't hang up when a random mobile number calls, it's already considered polite.

The department phone is more reliable and has higher credibility.

"Hello, I am Liu Zhi, Muniu Waike Zhuren of the Second Affiliated Hospital." Liu Zhuren introduced himself first.

"Please drive slowly on your end; I would like to consult about one thing."

"Does the Patient have a medical history of Lupus?"

"No."

Liu Zhuren was slightly disappointed, and his head lowered slightly.

"Are you all this nice to a Standardized Training Student on your end?" Wei Fusi said with disdain.

"..." Zhou Tianbo was speechless.

"If this were on my end, if a Standardized Training Doctor dared to say one extra word, I would slap them onto the wall, damn it."

"Old Wei, say less. My boss thinks highly of Doctor Ji Xiang; they participated in the rescue of a severe burn Patient together," Zhou Tianbo advised.

How reliable Ji Xiang is, Wei Fusi does not know, but Zhou Tianbo knows.

"Gu Lao... heh. Just a little Standardized Training Student!"

"He was the national first place in last year's Professional Medical Examination."

"!!!" Wei Fusi was stunned, "The one who got a perfect score and was first in the country?"

"Yes."

"That still won't do, this is too arrogant, and Lupus at that! The Family Member already said there is no past medical history." Although Wei Fusi was still mocking, his voice and tone had softened a lot.

"No history of Lupus, then do you know the Patient's blood type?" Liu Zhuren thought for a moment and continued to ask.
