Chapter 135: with translation of chapter title

Su Yun muttered, "She really has no manners."

Zheng Ren smiled, unfazed.

If you're not in medicine and go to the outpatient clinic, faced with a young doctor and an old one, it's obvious who to see.

Medicine is an empirical science.

So the patient's family did nothing wrong; they were just too flustered, and their blunt way of expressing themselves made people Uncomfortable.

Worry leads to chaos, but Zheng Ren didn't get angry; he just smiled and went back to his office.

"You're so good-natured, you're practically a pushover," Su Yun snapped.

"No wonder you don't want to be a doctor; you're really hot-headed," Zheng Ren laughed.

Soon, Zheng Ren's phone rang.

Before he could answer, several figures appeared at the office door; the one in front was an elderly man with a square face and a ruddy complexion.

He stared at Zheng Ren, his eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

"Is this your call?" Zheng Ren asked, holding up his phone.

"Did Director say it's you?" the elderly man said, still unsure, asking tentatively.

"The Emergency Department's Director Pan? If it's him, then he's talking about me," Zheng Ren nodded.

「……」 -> just ellipsis.

The elderly man had just been looking for Director Pan, but Director Pan was still in the hospital continuing his grand plan to demand people, money, and policy support.

After connecting the call and understanding the elderly man's meaning, he directly assigned the task to Zheng Ren, asking him to come perform the Shou Bing.

As soon as he heard they were looking for Zheng Ren, the elderly man's heart sank.

Same surname, same emergency department, could there be two doctors surnamed Zheng? It's possible, but unlikely.

But he still held onto a sliver of hope and dialed the number.

Sure enough, the phone rang in the office.

Well then…

How awkward…

"Doctor Zheng, Director asked me to find you," the elderly man said hesitantly.

If he had to do the Shou Bing himself, given his temper, he'd probably just turn and walk away without a second thought.

He simply couldn't afford to lose face with this person.

But for his precious granddaughter, he'd have to swallow even the biggest grudge, nose pinched.

"Oh, and the patient?" Zheng Ren asked.

Su Yun was about to make a few sarcastic remarks when she heard Zheng Ren start questioning the patient, giving him a disdainful look.

"Her father is bringing her; she'll be up soon."

"Let's go to the treatment room and first check the patient's condition," Zheng Ren said calmly.

A few minutes later, a worried middle-aged man stood beside a small figure clutching their stomach.

It wasn't as the elderly man described; they weren't carried on their back.

The little girl looked very strong, though her father's expression showed slight anxiety.

"Yaya..." several elderly people immediately surrounded her.

"What have you done!" the red-faced elderly man exclaimed, "How could you let Yaya walk up by herself!"

"She won't let me carry her..." Yaya's father muttered.

"Grandpa, I can walk, and it doesn't hurt much," the little girl said, wearing her hair in a ponytail, looking cutesy, speaking softly and sweetly, truly delighting everyone.

"That won't work either," the elderly people complained in a chorus.

In the upper right corner of Zheng Ren's vision, the System Panel showed only a green alert: acute appendicitis.

The condition is not serious, quite straightforward.

Everyone's pain threshold differs; take Fan Tian Shui, whose perforated appendix let him endure until gangrene set in. Meanwhile, this young patient before us can already barely bear the pain.

The patient appears to be about fifteen or sixteen, likely a junior high or first-year high school student.

Her face contorted in pain, she curled up on the hospital bed like a shrimp, clutching her stomach.

Yet it's clear she's strong; despite the pain, she still maintains a smile, trying to calm the anxious elders with her expression.

"Little sister, lie flat, let me check you," Zheng Ren said with a warm smile, hoping to gain the patient's trust in the First Time.

"Mm." The girl with the ponytail replied obediently, then struggled to turn over and lie on the examination bed.

When her abdomen hurts, curling up eases the pain slightly; but when she moves her body to lie flat, she feels a sharp pang.

Her brows furrowed slightly as she bit her lower lip, trying not to make a sound.

This child is really well-behaved, Zheng Ren thought admiringly.

Nowadays, such children are rare.

"Yaya, slow down, slow down," several elderly people said, rushing forward to help, but the ponytail refused.

She forced a smile, shifting her body bit by bit, lying flat as Zheng Ren had instructed.

Zheng Ren curled her legs up with his right hand.

There was clear tenderness in the lower right abdomen with rebound pain, no muscle tension, and the rest of the physical exam was negative.

Along with the lab report from the patient's father, Zheng Ren asked about clinical signs and history; the diagnosis of acute, simple appendicitis was certain.

Although the system's Big Pig Trotter power backed him up, Zheng Ren still habitually relied on his own clinical Knowledge to make judgments.

After all, human life is of utmost importance.

As long as there's time, more checks and more precautions are always right.

"Big Brother, is my illness not serious?" the twin-tailed girl asked cutely.

"Not serious." Zheng Ren replied with a smile, "But you need a small Shou Bing, after the Shou Bing you will recover completely soon."

"Hmm, I know." The twin-tailed girl said seriously: "I checked my symptoms; it should be appendicitis, can choose conservative or Shou Bing treatment. I still think Shou Bing treatment is better, otherwise it will often hurt."

Hey, not bad, huh, Zheng Ren laughed.

The young patient is not old, and knows quite a lot.

At this age, to be in pain and not be a nuisance is already not bad. The little girl can also make a Clarity judgment on her own and decide on Shou Bing.

"Little sister, when you look up information online, also be careful; there's a lot of false information." Zheng Ren said jokingly.

*Looking at illness, doctors generally dislike this kind of thing. Because of profit motives, when searching keywords online, the first results are those that have paid.

Spending money is just for profit; inside there is a lot of false information.

It's not that it can't be done, but we still need to discern.

"Big brother, I know how to distinguish myself." The twin-tailed girl Persistence.

One can see that this is a very self-reliant little girl; although she is cute and bubbly, the Inner Mind's strength and rationality are absolutely not what her outward appearance shows.

Zheng Ren smiled, called her father to go fill out the hospitalization form. The other several elders looked worried, surrounding the little girl.

The diagnosis is clear, Zheng Ren issued the hospitalization form, and admitted the twin-tailed girl.

The fasting time was sufficient; after completing the hospitalization procedures, Zheng Ren began to give the Shou Bing medical orders, and the nurse started to get busy.

Shaving the skin, leaving the needle, and other pre-operative preparations were quickly completed.

Su Yun pushed a cart to send the child to the third-floor Operating Room; Zheng Ren then began to explain the pre-operative details to the family members, each point explained thoroughly, scaring the family's faces deathly pale.
