Chapter 385

Trauma Surgery, Inpatient General Office.

Lan Tianluo sat inside with his legs crossed, tapping away on his phone, tap tap tap, chatting with who knew who.

After entering, Fang Ziye handed Lan Tianluo a chilled drink and asked, "Tianluo, have you lost some weight lately?"

Lan Tianluo looked up, smiling and nodding. "Yes, Senior Brother. I've been working out lately, and I feel much more comfortable after exercising."

"You can tell I've lost weight?"

The more familiar someone is, the rougher their attention actually is. In Fang Ziye's memory, Lan Tianluo was still a medium-built, slightly fair-skinned, tender rookie.

But actually, the current Lan Tianluo still had fair skin, but his face and figure had become lean and capable—

after all, having endured the beatings of Trauma Surgery, lifting legs for disinfection, holding legs as an assistant, muscles could be trained too.

Naturally, the one who changed the most was Lan Tianluo's gaze; compared to two years ago, he had matured a lot. "Not bad, working out is really not bad! ~"

"You're pretty good too. Now you and Tingzhu have developed some little secrets, huh?"

"Is she planning to go to Anesthesiology?" Fang Ziye's voice paused slightly; actually, he felt a bit of heartache inside.

Luo Tingzhu had always been a very clever and resilient girl, naturally with her own pride.

It seemed that after returning to the country, Luo Tingzhu had been seeking change because she saw Fang Ziye was busy to the point of being unable to disentangle himself, so if Luo Tingzhu ended up becoming a Trauma Surgery doctor too, then the two people's time might become parallel lines missing each other.

For example, Fang Ziye did day-shift surgery, Luo Tingzhu did a night shift.

One day shift ordinary ward round in Internal Medicine, Fang Ziye was called out late at night for an emergency consultation surgery, becoming two non-intersecting parallel lines.

Lan Tianluo nodded stiffly, his right hand grabbing the skin on top of his head. "Senior Brother, me?"

"Senior Sister Luo indeed thought so, and the source of this inspiration was that once, a Senior Sister from Anesthesiology wanted to add your WeChat, Senior Brother."

"I forgot what her surname is."

"But Senior Sister Luo contacted Professor Zeng Quanming from Anesthesiology a few days ago, and it's said she even made that Senior Sister cry until she was heartbroken; recently she's been a bit withdrawn."

"Sigh, what do you say, why would she provoke our Senior Sister for no reason?" Lan Tianluo especially liked calling Luo Tingzhu Senior Sister, because Senior Sister contained the character Sister; if one day he could remove that Senior character from her, that would be great.

Actually, after Lan Tianluo became sensible, he also felt a bit guilty. The former Luo Tingzhu, in 'seeking change', also wanted to change her mindset, thinking of merging into her father's or mother's side, wanting to enjoy family affection, but was 'hurt' by himself.

Luo Tingzhu lost paternal and maternal love when very young; she had a grandma, and her grandma especially loved her, so why was she still willing to try leaving home, even leaving grandma to go to her own home?

The reason was very simple: she might be willing to let go of her knot in her heart, accept a non-biological mother, a non-same-mother younger brother, also wanted to enjoy paternal love, even willing to leave the grandma who regarded her as her life.

You have to know, such a good grandma, Luo Tingzhu's relationship with her was so deep; under normal circumstances, Luo Tingzhu was impossible to make such a decision.

One can imagine, at that time, how heartbroken her own grandma would be; she had loved Luo Tingzhu for so many years, but could not overcome the identity of her own son, the biological father. Luo Tingzhu was also so pitiful; loving her grandma so much, in the end unable to replace parental love...

Fang Ziye lightly nodded, sitting down on the bed. "So that means, this time Tingzhu went to Sha City during the May Day holiday, maybe not to find someone to play with, but had other thoughts?"

"Let me guess!"

Fang Ziye's thinking now also began to become agile,

"Is it also related to anesthesia? For example, a training class or something?"

No way; his girlfriend's IQ was very high, and his brother-in-law's IQ went without saying, his science subjects were close to the ceiling.

To achieve something in a discipline in a short time, what Fang Ziye could think of was a training class, and moreover a relatively high-end training class.

If it were in Han City, then Luo Tingzhu disappearing without a trace during the May Day holiday would have been discovered by Fang Ziye, so Tongji and Peking Union Medical College, which had good anesthesiology departments, could not be chosen.

In the Central China Region, besides these two hospitals, the one whose anesthesiology department could really handle things was only Xiangya Hospital in Hunan Province.

'Ranking up' online was ranking up, skill was skill!

People in the industry dared not say Xiangya Hospital's strength was lacking, nor would there be a fool to say such things.

"Senior Brother, you've guessed it all, then this surprise has no meaning."

"Actually, according to Senior Sister Luo's idea, it was to appear one day in front of the anesthesia machine in the anesthesiology department, and be recognized by you! ~"

Lan Tianluo suddenly became fierce: "It was just now, that professor from who knows which anesthesiology department, really damn infuriating!"

"I calculated so many things, what's it to him? So much talk..."

"Don't mess around! ~"

Fang Ziye sniffed his nose hard, then asked again: "Tianluo, do you know what class your Senior Sister signed up for? Is there information online? Can one still sign up now or something?"

"Ah?" Lan Tianluo looked up, his expression froze.

"Senior Brother, what do you want to do? You want to sign up for a class too?"

"You don't, if you do this she'll hit me, Senior Brother, don't do this; I finally eased my relationship with Senior Sister Luo."

"Senior Brother, do you know how hard it is to get Senior Sister Luo to open her mouth and ask me to help calculate anesthesiology dosages, to tally up formulas?" Lan Tianluo clasped his hands together, fawning.

Fang Ziye naturally knew; Luo Tingzhu, if she could do it herself, rarely asked others for help.

Fang Ziye looked up: "Then I know it all; the surprise is gone. What do you say we do?"

Lan Tianluo immediately felt resentful and indignant, hugging his computer: "I'll go search that damn professor's articles and research projects or something, damn it."

Fang Ziye kicked Lan Tianluo, his expression serious: "Do less of this kind of thing! It's not necessary."

"Digging out someone's fatal weakness behind their back is not a righteous act; if it's just to vent anger purely, it will also ruin your character."

"Tianluo, my idea is this: you say, Senior Sister Luo is thinking of giving us a surprise; do we have any chance to create a surprise for her?"

"For example, we go be substitute teachers for a training class or something..."

Lan Tianluo suddenly looked up, dumbfounded.

"Ah! ~ This?"

"Senior Brother? You?"

"Meeting by chance is not as good as an unexpected encounter; you can choose not to appear, can't I go earn some pocket money?" Fang Ziye became thoughtful.

Young people, after all, can have an unexpected 'encounter'!

Lan Tianluo hurriedly shook his head: "Senior Brother, it can be done, but it's just, what about your duty shift? Also, how you're going to contact Xiangya Hospital is a question."

"The second question, how you can become a substitute teacher there, is also a question."

Lan Tianluo continued to explain: "Senior Brother, I'm not doubting your skill, Senior Brother. Although Professor Du is a bit detestable, his skill and vision definitely won't be bad."

「He thinks your operation is awesome, so it must really be pretty awesome. 」

Fang Ziye heard this, took a deep breath, and said: 「Naturally, I've thought about it, and I'll use some of my connections. Besides, this might cost me quite a bit. 」

「And then only get a few days of an unexpected encounter, but I think it's worth it. 」

「Tian Luo, I'm not young anymore; I won't have many chances to 'go wild' like this. I'll try it first—you send me that link first. If it doesn't work, just treat it as a failed plan for a chance encounter……」Fang Ziye acted as soon as he thought of it.

「This……」Lan Tianluo hesitated.

「Send it to me. 」Immediately, Fang Ziye directly dialed Qin Geluo's phone, then walked out of the Inpatient General Office.

Fang Ziye's suggestion had never been considered by Lan Tianluo before.

But even from Lan Tianluo's perspective, imagining Luo Tingzhu sitting in the classroom or in the operating room, seeing Fang Ziye appear at the lecture podium or performing anesthesia techniques on the operating table—that scene must be very exciting.

These two sound like they can 'go wild' more than I can……

When Lan Tianluo came out of the Inpatient General Office, Fang Ziye had already settled things with Qin Geluo: 「Brother Luo, that's settled then, thank you! 」

「Brother, I'll definitely remember this favor! And I'll pay it back. 」

「Thank you. 」Fang Ziye's tone was solemn.

May Day is a holiday.

Qin Geluo is an attending physician, a superior, covering Fang Ziye's shift as Inpatient Chief Resident—this kindness cannot be called light.

But it doesn't matter; Fang Ziye does what he wants!

The current Fang Ziye is not the Fang Ziye of two years ago; when Fang Ziye says he'll repay a favor, those who know him won't take it as a joke or doubt it!

The current Fang Ziye has the absolute ability to tell Qin Geluo he will repay the favor.

A person's relationship network is, in most cases, based on their overall capability.

The reason it's overall capability is that strength, economy, social skills, etc., are all included.

Who says money and connections aren't part of overall capability? But one's own strength is also the foundation of the best relationship network.

Whether in research or clinical work, as long as you lean slightly toward Qin Geluo's direction!

If Fang Ziye lets out some word.

It's estimated that attending physicians willing to cover shifts for Fang Ziye could line up from Zhongnan Hospital all the way to Peking Union Medical College Hospital!

「Senior Brother, then how did you handle the Xiangya Hospital side? 」Lan Tianluo was still curious, seemingly wanting to learn something.

「This is a secret! ~」Fang Ziye kept them in suspense.

After everything was ready, Fang Ziye planned to call his teacher Yuan Weihong and his master Deng Yong to report the matter.

Asking for leave to leave without reporting to a superior is not acceptable! ~

Even, Fang Ziye knew that making this phone call might draw the displeasure of the two teachers in their hearts—

For the sake of personal romance, swapping shifts to go out and play, to go wild, not doing one's proper job, but instead using one's own ability and energy to exchange for a dispensable 'romance'—it's truly a bit childish.

But Fang Ziye felt that in this life of his, the first half was spent rushing around for his future, and the second half might be spent rushing around for research; how many times can he go wild?

In this life, one must live for oneself at least once, right?

Just this once! ~

In the process of calling Deng Yong and Yuan Weihong to report, Fang Ziye also thought of his parents—he was willing to go to Sha City to see Luo Tingzhu, but not go home to keep the two elders company.

But Fang Ziye also knew that if he went home to see his parents, they would certainly be happy, but they knew that if he took leave, they would surely chase him out of the house.

But Luo Tingzhu wouldn't.

This is a difference in concepts between two generations.

Fang Ziye had actually not been home for nearly a year, from last August to nearly May this year.

Is this a long time?

Long, but not too long; in Eastern Han, it's commonplace for people not to return home to see their elders for a year or even several years……

Once decided, Fang Ziye just did it.

Received the recognition and permission of the two teachers.

Received Deng Yong's 'strong support,' allowing Fang Ziye to relax well outside.

Received a warning from his person of gratitude Yuan Weihong: must return within three days. Work cannot be treated as a joke, and the master-disciple relationship cannot be distorted.

No matter what Professor Deng Yong says, he must strictly adhere to his bottom line, return within three days, preferably within two days, or even one day.

Fang Ziye planned to listen to Yuan Weihong, because Yuan Weihong is currently a subordinate, his experience is rich, and the content he considers is more comprehensive.

Professor Deng Yong has no superior directly under his responsibility above him, so he doesn't quite understand the thoughts of leaders.

Professor Han Yuanxiao also doesn't dare to do anything to Deng Yong, because Deng Yong is at the top of the food chain, but Han Yuanxiao has spent absolute effort, and there is still a certain possibility of doing something to Fang Ziye.

「Okay, Master, I'll strive to return in one day, or two days! 」Fang Ziye naturally knew that although he goes wild, he must also remember his proper job.

Today is April 30th, the last day of April, the time is six in the afternoon.

Fang Ziye received Xie Xin's reply at around seven-thirty, successfully 'selling himself' once to obtain the opportunity for her to recommend him to the anesthesiology professor at Xiangya Hospital.

At nine forty, Fang Ziye took the high-speed rail to Sha City, took a taxi directly to Xiangya Hospital in Sha City, and then went to the Surgical Building.

Fang Ziye saw 'Senior Sister Xie Xin' once again, but Xie Xin had now come out of the Postdoctoral Mobile Station to work.

「Junior Fang, you're here for Xiao Luo, right? 」

「I say, you two are really interesting—one for you, asking me to find a training class slot in the anesthesiology department; one for her, asking me to find a teaching instructor slot in the anesthesiology department. I'm really looking forward to your meeting. 」Xie Xin clapped twice and suddenly understood everything.

Smiling like a flower: 「Although now, this dog of mine is being abused to a terrible state. But I'm still very much looking forward to seeing the two of you meet……」

「Hey, this matter—is it that you don't know, or she doesn't know? 」

Xie Xin added Luo Tingzhu as a friend, also letting Fang Ziye know once again who was behind Luo Tingzhu entering this training class.

Although Senior Sister Xie Xin gained benefits from both sides, Fang Ziye didn't care too much and said: 「Thank you, thank you, Senior Sister, thank you for your trouble. 」

「No no no, this is just an equivalent exchange. Naturally, whether you can persuade Professor Xu of the anesthesiology department to let you go on stage to give a lecture depends on your own ability……」

「Professor Xu is in the anesthesiology department's training room, still preparing lessons for the subsequent training class; let's go find him……」Xie Xin reached out and guided Fang Ziye in a direction.
