~9 min read 1,757 words

Yang Lei, wearing an isolation gown, is asking the instrument nurse for oval forceps, a tray, gauze, and povidone-iodine to prepare for disinfection.

This includes Yang Lei, an isolation gown, and oval forceps. The instrument nurse is not a named entity.

Upon hearing the words of the elderly woman lying on the operating table, his movement froze.

This includes the operating table. The term "auntie" is generic and not a named entity.

"Okay, ma'am." Zheng Ren didn't hesitate at all, turned to scrub his hands, and while walking said, "No need for sterilization; just use regular cefazolin, what do you think?"

This includes Zheng Ren. The term "ma'am" is generic.

"Okay then." The elderly woman said, satisfied.

No named entity.

"...", Yang Lei froze for a moment; the instrument nurse, with her back to the patient, was checking the instruments and almost burst out laughing, contaminating the sterile table.

This includes Yang Lei. "Sterile table" is not a named entity.

The surgery went smoothly; Zheng Ren didn't rush, yet remained clean and efficient. Even the newly assigned instrument nurse hadn't had time to react before he started checking the instruments again.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

It seemed as if the entire surgery was just about checking numbers...

No named entity.

After stepping down from the operating table, Zheng Ren told Chang Yue about the patient's unusual request.

This includes Zheng Ren and Chang Yue.

Chang Yue understood Zheng Ren's meaning, immediately summoned the family to begin communication, learning the patient's condition and explaining the situation during the surgery.

Contains: Chang Yue, Zheng Ren.

The family member who came to communicate was her son; after hearing Chang Yue's explanation, he also found it both laughable and exasperating.

Contains: Chang Yue.

I don't know where the elderly lady heard this set of health-preservation theories.

This includes the term "theory". "Elderly lady" is generic.

Knowing it wasn't a special cause, Chang Yue communicated with the patient's family and obtained their signatures, after which medical orders were started, including intravenous antibiotics.

Contains: Chang Yue.

Following appendectomy surgery, depending on the severity, patients need intravenous antibiotics for three to seven days. Zheng Ren was confident in his surgery, but he didn't dare let the patient recover on their own; instead, following protocol, he administered at least three days of intravenous antibiotics.

This includes Zheng Ren and appendectomy. "Antibiotics" is not a named entity.

That is the safest approach.

No named.

Zheng Ren constantly thought of Xie Yiren; her tearful, pear-blossom-like image lingered in his heart, making him feel uneasy.

This includes Zheng Ren, Xie Yiren, and the feeling of being uncomfortable.

"Yang Lei, check the ward for a while; I'll go to the ICU first, then step out for a bit. Call me if anything comes up." Zheng Ren quickly made the decision, wanting to go comfort Xie Yiren.

Contains: Yang Lei, Zheng Ren, Xie Yiren. Also ICU is not in glossary; but "ICU" is acronym, not in glossary; we keep as is.

"Mm, don't worry." Although Yang Lei was as inconspicuous as a tiny transparent person in front of the patient, he was still very reassuring.

Contains: Yang Lei.

Zheng Ren arrived at the ICU and saw Su Yun still on guard; she had about ten sheets of paper in her hand.

This includes Zheng Ren, the ICU, and Su Yun.

The condition summary displayed on the system panel was relatively optimistic, because the surgery was timely and postoperative care was proper; although she was still in the danger period of hemorrhagic shock, she was no longer as critical.

This includes the system panel. "Hemorrhagic shock" is not a named entity.

"Are you busy at home?" Su Yun asked softly, looking down at the numbers on the paper.

Contains: Su Yun.

Some doctors habitually refer to their department as "home," which surprised Zheng Ren; even Su Yun, who constantly clamored about opening a pet hospital, would say that.

Contains: Zheng Ren, Su Yun.

"We performed an appendectomy; the patients are all stable, and there's nothing going on right now."

This includes appendectomy.

"Nothing's going on over here either," Su Yun said, her black hair fluttering on her forehead, "The negative effects of hemorrhagic shock have eased somewhat, and we expect to be able to remove the tube in the next day or two."

Contains: Su Yun.

"That's good," Zheng Ren nodded.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

Although the system's "big pig trotter" is more reliable than Su Yun, who wouldn't want to hear more good news?

This includes Su Yun and the big pig trotter.

"Please take some time off to go see Xie Yiren," Su Yun suddenly said.

Contains: Su Yun, Xie Yiren.

A sudden chill ran down Zheng Ren's back; he had just been thinking about going to see little Xie Yi, so how did Su Yun know?

This includes Zheng Ren, Xiao Yi Ren, and Su Yun. Note that "little Xie Yi" maps to Xiao Yi Ren per the glossary.

Like a thief caught red-handed, Zheng Ren felt somewhat flustered.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

"Let's get her something tasty to eat; hopefully that foodie will feel better." Su Yun lifted her head and said seriously, "She is your instrument nurse; taking a day off is warranted."

Contains: Su Yun.

He must have been mistaken; that sharp-tongued, effeminate guy was just saying that offhand, and Zheng Ren kept telling himself that.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

"Mm, I'll go check," Zheng Ren said lightly.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

After also looking at Miao Xiaohua's lab report and gaining a basic grasp of her condition's recovery, Zheng Ren then left.

This includes Zheng Ren and Miao Xiaohua.

Su Yun watched Zheng Ren's retreating back, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

Contains: Su Yun, Zheng Ren.

"Little flower, hurry up and get better," Su Yun whispered to the calmly lying Miao Xiaohua on the hospital bed, "The Zheng chief who saved your life is a blockhead; if you get the chance, help him out."

This includes Su Yun, Miao Xiaohua, and Zheng Ren (Chief Zheng). Note that "chief Zheng" maps to Chief Zheng.

……

No named.

……

No named.

After leaving the ICU, Zheng Ren briefly told Miao Xiaohua's parents about her recovery, then returned to the emergency department and changed his clothes.

This includes Zheng Ren, Miao Xiaohua, and the ICU. "Emergency department" is not in the glossary.

Seeing that the duty room was empty, he took out his phone, hesitated for a few seconds, and then called Chu Yan zhi.

This includes Chu Yan zhi and the duty room (Zhibanshi).

"Chief Zheng, is there a major rescue?" Chu Yan zhi said, surprised by Zheng Ren's sudden call, and asked hurriedly.

This includes Chief Zheng and Chu Yan zhi.

"No." Zheng Ren quickly explained, "Are you with Yiren?"

This includes Zheng Ren and Yi Ren.

"She's asleep, I'm just playing on my phone, what's up?" Chu Yan zhi suddenly laughed, saying, "Is it because you're in surgery? Without you, this little instrument nurse feels awkward."

Contains: Chu Yan zhi.

"..." Zheng Ren broke out in a sweat; he had never been teased like this before, froze for a moment, and didn't know how to respond.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

After a few seconds of silence, a restrained giggle came from the other end of the line.

No named.

Zheng Ren felt embarrassed, quickly clarified the purpose of his call, asked for Xie Yiren's address, and hastily hung up.

Contains: Zheng Ren, Xie Yiren.

Interacting with girls is really tough; Zheng Ren immediately felt a sense of embarrassment.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

He hadn't done anything, yet everyone seemed to know. Zheng Ren shook his head, saying that when it came to surgery and saving lives, he was an expert; but when it came to dealing with girls, even taking the first brave step required summoning all his courage.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

Putting on his outerwear, Zheng Ren hurried out of the emergency building.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

When he first arrived at the inpatient ward of the emergency department as the inpatient chief, the weather was still warm.

This includes Zheng Ren, the inpatient chief, and the emergency ward (Jizhenbingfang).

Staying in the ward, each day consisted of surgeries and rounds.

No named.

Although Zheng Ren didn't mind a dull, boring life, when he left the inpatient department he clearly felt his clothing was too thin.

This includes Zheng Ren and the inpatient department.

The weather was bitterly cold; Zheng Ren glanced at the sky—it was already three or four in the afternoon, growing dim. The sky was overcast, and the biting northwest wind felt like a small knife scraping his face.

This includes Zheng Ren and the afternoon.

It really is a hands-and-feet kind of weather, freezing one's hands and feet.

No named.

He pulled his clothes tighter, glanced at the direction, and, following the address given by Chu Yan zhi, walked toward Xie Yiren's house against the wind.

Contains: Chu Yan zhi, Xie Yiren. So Chu Yan zhi, Xie Yiren.

They said it was a five-minute walk, and indeed it was exactly five minutes—at a girl's walking pace.

This includes the term "minute".

Behind City First Hospital lies the city's central green space, with a few small ponds; adjacent to it is the city's most expensive residential district.

This includes City First Hospital.

Entering the residential complex, near the lakeside there were several small villas; Zheng Ren glanced at the numbers on the villas and found Xie Yiren's home.

Contains: Zheng Ren, Xie Yiren.

It was a three-story standalone villa with two garage bays, and the lawn in front continued to sprout green despite the winter cold.

No named.

I don't know what kind of grass it is, and Zheng Ren felt somewhat moved. Seeing a patch of green in the bitter north wind is extremely rare.

Contains: Zheng Ren.

He pressed the doorbell, and soon the intercom carried Chu Yan zhi's voice.

Contains: Chu Yan zhi.

Opening the door, ahead was a foyer of several dozen square meters, Chu Yan zhi leaned out from the second floor, saying, "Change your shoes, come up and sit a while; we'll go eat at six."

Zheng Ren no longer had the decisive vigor he had in the Operating Room; he carefully took off his shoes, afraid to dirty the carpet that looked very soft and thick.

Chief Zheng took leave to come see you.

Hey, it's daylight!

Yi Ren, emergency Shou Bing!

With a boom, it sounded as if something heavy had fallen onto the floor.
