Chapter 1349: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,372 words

Early the next morning, arriving at the hospital, Zheng Ren stared in surprise to see Song Ying standing honestly at the ward entrance waiting for him.

If it weren't for the morning sun streaming through the window, unlike yesterday's situation, Zheng Ren would have thought he had time-traveled.

In that case, being trapped for these dozen or so hours……

It seems one could learn countless things; the books in the System Library would no longer be a worry to finish. If the system's Shou Bing time could also be reset, I could even figure out turbulence research.

While Zheng Ren was lost in thought, Song Ying walked over toward him.

"Zheng Lao Ban, thanks!" Song Ying said in a low voice.

He thanked upon meeting, leaving Zheng Ren momentarily stunned.

"Are you thanking me?" Su Yun laughed heartily and said, "You didn't finish all the stock in your wine cellar yesterday; you really ought to thank me properly."

Song Ying smiled and said, "Doctor Su was joking. It wasn't that I couldn't hold back yesterday; I sent you home and then ran straight to my boss."

"Oh?"

"My boss has had oral ulcers for years; one spot heals, another flares up, just as you said, Zheng Lao Ban." Song Ying said, "You told me to prick my boss with a small suture needle or an injection needle tip; I found a suture needle and did as you said."

"Then what?"

"This is a photo, take a look." Song Ying's expression was relaxed, he chuckled and said, "The needle-prick test came back positive; I consulted and it seems to be Behçet's syndrome."

"Yo, Manager Song figured it out in just one night?" Su Yun said with a laugh.

"If you don't mind, just call me Song Ge." Song Ying looked seriously at Su Yun and said, "I didn't sleep all night, I consulted several directors and figured out this disease."

"That's good then." Zheng Ren looked at the red papular rash like millet grains shown on Song Ying's phone photo and also felt happy.

Communicating with someone like Song Ying is truly reassuring, unlike the two simple-minded patient family members in the ward.

I had just raised the issue last night; this morning, less than 24 hours later, Song Ying had already gotten to the bottom of everything.

No wonder Lin JiaoJiao brought that Chief Meng who came for a checkup; in Song Ying's eyes he was just a rustic nouveau riche from the countryside.

To carve out a vast expanse of clear sky with bare hands, lacking any skill simply won't do.

"Zheng Lao Ban, Doctor Su, thank you." Song Ying bowed deeply, his sincerity showing.

"Song Ge, you're too polite." Zheng Ren laughed and said, "This is just a preliminary check, not even a disease of our department. I suggest you hurry to the hospital for examination and treatment; otherwise, ulcers all over the body would be unbearable."

"Zheng Lao Ban, busy early this morning?" As they chatted, a greeting from Zhou Chun Yong came from behind Zheng Ren.

"Good." Song Ying nodded, not standing on ceremony, and turned to leave.

Zhou Chun Yong saw Song Ying, felt his face familiar but couldn't recall where from. Since Zheng Ren was here, he didn't think much, and with a beaming face said, "Zheng Lao Ban, I came early to pick you up. I was afraid you'd have to go into surgery again today, so I prepared twenty patients; they've been waiting since last night, and I didn't sleep well."

Zheng Ren laughed.

It seems Zhou Chun Yong truly looks forward to the teaching surgery; his speech is even a bit mixed up.

"Director Zhou, please wait a moment; I'll go check on the post-op patient." Zheng Ren said with a smile.

Zhou Chun Yong quickly agreed, watching Zheng Ren and Doctor Su enter the department, and only then did he relax.

He genuinely feared that Zheng Ren would have something come up and not go perform the surgery.

Judging by the level of anatomy, Doctor Su's lecture last time was truly high. But the higher that is, the more Zhou Chun Yong looks forward to Zheng Ren's hemostatic forceps.

No matter how high Doctor Su's level, he is merely Zheng Lao Ban's assistant. Zhou Chun Yong harbors no upside-down notions; everything is clear to him.

It's not that he hopes to be beaten, having a masochistic tendency; rather, he truly feels tremendous progress.

Zhou Chun Yong has thought countless times: if Zheng Lao Ban were to give that anatomy lecture, what would it be like?

Today, he came to room 912 with boundless anticipation, even a hint of panic.

He feared Zheng Ren might not be able to go today.

It's not just about his own learning and progress. In Di Du, opportunities are endless with heads turning and tails swaying; but if Zheng Lao Ban doesn't go today, Zhou Chun Yong truly worries something major will happen.

A few days ago, the incident of Zheng Lao Ban performing a live-streamed surgery for Doctor Mei Ha'er caused an uproar throughout the city.

Not long after the surgery, the head of the cardiology department came knocking, having heard of a connection with Zheng Lao Ban, and pressed Zhou Chun Yong to contact Zheng Lao Ban.

Di Du Liver and Gallbladder Hospital is a specialty hospital; the cardiology internal medicine department merely serves surgery. Pre-op assessment, post-op consultation—there's not much work.

But Di Du Liver and Gallbladder Hospital has invested heavily, hiring a retired senior director from Fuwai Hospital, with Lin Lao, vice chair of the National Cardiac Circulation Committee, presiding.

Ordinary directors, Zhou Chun Yong wouldn't bother with; but Lin Lao is different—when this old man stamps his foot, the whole of Di Du's 4-9 city follows his sway.

Back then, he had indeed given……

Forget it, as long as Zheng Lao Ban can go, that's fine.

Lin Lao had studied abroad back then and had some connection with Doctor Mei Ha'er. But this time the doctor came to perform a surgery that is still high-risk, and Lin Lao didn't come to disturb.

All I need is to make sure to invite Zheng Lao Ban over today for a sit-down to watch a surgery.

This is Lin Lao's demand; if I can't fulfill it, I fear my days ahead will be rough.

Now that it's settled, seeing Zheng Ren and Doctor Su's backs disappear, he finally picked up his phone.

"Has Chief Feng received it?"

"Fine, go straight to the operating room and wait."

This time, Zhou Chun Yong finally felt truly at ease.

He reviewed the whole process from start to finish, found no flaw, and his heart settled back into his belly. Not only Zheng Lao Ban, but even the salesperson from Longwind Micro-creation, he treats like a grand master to be served; Zheng Lao Ban this time probably has nothing left to complain about.

Zhou Chun Yong still has a strong sense of crisis.

The relationship between Director Kong and Zhu Liangchen is not shallow; I know it, and everyone in the circle knows.

His approach is akin to digging at the wall's base; digging makes him happy. But he fears that once Zhu Liangchen regains strength, the other side has backing; as long as they stand firm and take hits, he fears he'll be finished.

Who let them have a powerful older brother?

Zhou Chun Yong gave an embarrassed chuckle.

But the more this happens, the higher his fighting spirit rises. "What are you, Zhu Liangchen, daring to fight me? Relying on your family's Kong elder, you still haven't stopped me from poaching successfully!"

Zhou Chun Yong felt pleased in his heart.

He waited quietly; although Zheng Ren wasn't there, Zhou Chun Yong also behaved properly, as if Zheng Ren were right before his eyes.

A gentleman is cautious in solitude; Zhou Chun Yong puts this saying into practice.

If you're going to kneel, do it all the way; being half‑hearted is pointless. A person should be straightforward—Zhou Chun Yong keeps this firmly in mind.

He waited respectfully at the ward entrance, not like the chief director of the Capital Hepatobiliary Intervention Department, but like a patient's family member.
