Chapter 179: 0175 Not Doing Surgery Is Still Awesome

~7 min read 1,265 words

The plane taxied quickly to the vicinity of the exit, and passengers disembarked in an orderly manner.

After all the passengers had left, the flight attendants surrounded the captain, asking questions all at once.

"Captain, what happened?"

"Brother Lin, what exactly happened?"

"I've never seen an emergency helicopter before."

Captain Lin's expression was also relaxed; although he didn't know the patient's fate, he had done everything he could—wasn't that worth being proud of?

"I heard Doctor Zheng say the patient had a serious condition, something like an aortic dissection tumor, which could cause sudden death at any moment," Captain Lin said.

"Whoa, aortic dissection? A classmate's father had this disease." A flight attendant covered her mouth in surprise.

"How serious is it?" others asked.

"I don't know either."

"Tsk…"

"But the doctor back home said it couldn't be treated; at least one would have to go to Sheng Cheng or Di Du. The family wanted to transfer him, and supposedly my classmate's father sat up from his hospital bed and then immediately collapsed and died." The flight attendant tried to recall the incident from years ago; she never imagined that one day such a patient would appear on a commercial flight, right beside her.

Moreover,

Most importantly,

That person was actually sent onto the emergency helicopter unharmed.

"That serious!"

"He died just from sitting up?"

"Good heavens, that's scary."

Just imagining a healthy person suddenly dropping dead from sitting up made the other flight attendants jump in fright.

Captain Lin's face also tightened; he had thought the passenger's condition was serious, but he hadn't imagined it would be this severe.

"But never mind, once on the helicopter he's probably already at the hospital." The flight attendant clasped her hands, as if praying for the patient.

"I'd guess that if it were an ambulance, driving into the city and reaching the hospital would bring even more complications."

"I've never seen an emergency helicopter before; if it weren't for the Red Cross on it, I'd have thought it was a special police squad heading out to catch criminals."

After chatting a bit, the flight attendant who had first noticed Cui Heming's condition and helped Zheng Ren lift him to the first‑class seat suddenly asked, "Brother Lin, you're really awesome!"

Captain Lin stared for a moment, unsure what she meant by that.

"An emergency helicopter? Only you and the ground crew are familiar enough to call one in." The little flight attendant looked admiring.

Captain Lin stared for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"I don't have that ability." Captain Lin didn't hog the credit out of vanity, saying, "It was that little doctor who called the tower and had the ground crew contact a Professor Pei."

"Ah?"

"Then what?"

"Impossible—even if the ground crew were willing to connect, how could a strange phone call summon an emergency helicopter?"

The little flight attendants all expressed disbelief.

"I remember Doctor Zheng saying to tell Professor Pei that Zheng Ren had diagnosed an aortic dissection on the plane and needed an emergency helicopter." Captain Lin, recalling that scene just a while ago, still felt moved: "Afterward the tower replied, the helicopter was ready. Before it descended, I contacted the tower and taxied to the helicopter's position."

"..."

Mentioning one's name like that…

Many people have experienced this; the little flight attendants naturally have also encountered or heard of it to some extent.

But most of the time it's just bragging after drinking.

Who would have thought, on the plane,

that inconspicuous little doctor,

could just report his name and summon an emergency helicopter?

How fantastical is that?

"How impressive—what's his background?"

"I saw him go to get his qualification certificate; it seemed he also had some sort of research invitation letter."

"Wow, if I meet him again I'll definitely keep his contact information."

"You're just after the contact info of Doctor Zheng's assistant, right."

The flight attendants chatted and laughed.

…

…

Zheng Ren got off the plane, exchanged contact information with Xia Hua, and said goodbye.

Su Yun followed behind Zheng Ren, silent the whole way. When only the two of them remained, Su Yun calmly said,

"You've got guts."

"How so?"

"You judged the patient as having a type‑A aortic dissection at a glance?" Su Yun lifted his head, his eyes sharp.

"Well, the symptoms and pulse gave a clear enough diagnosis." Zheng Ren spoke offhandedly, making it up as he went—actually the diagnosis came from that Big Pig Trotter of the system.

Cui Heming's medical history and symptoms also matched.

Whether it's type A, B, or C only differs in severity; coming to Di Du for emergency care is certainly better than flying back to Hai Cheng.

Su Yun wasn't being obstinate; he didn't argue with Zheng Ren.

After hearing Zheng Ren's confident words, his steps hesitated slightly, then he silently followed behind Zheng Ren.

This is incredibly impressive, Su Yun knows. But as a surgeon, isn't it supposed to be about showing off with skill? How come Zheng Ren didn't do surgery this time, yet I ended up with this "illusion"?

…

Feng Xu Hui made a big sign and waited at the airport exit for Zheng Ren and Su Yun.

Longwind Micro-creation paid great attention to this research activity, and Feng Xu Hui was also lucky—he found such a treasure as Zheng Ren at the first promotional event in Dong Bei.

So he seriously prepared Zheng Ren's stay in Di Du, and arrived at the airport an hour early to meet him.

When he saw Zheng Ren's figure walking out of the airport exit from afar, he waved the sign in his hand, trying to attract Zheng Ren's attention.

But… the fact always catches people off guard.

Zheng Ren, as if he hadn't seen the swaying sign, walked out of the boarding gate without glancing sideways, into the crowd.

That stunningly beautiful assistant followed behind him, head down, as if contemplating life.

Feng Xu Hui was speechless.

What the heck is this? Chief Zheng, how come you didn't notice yourself?

Right, he must think he's just a little doctor, so no one would come pick him up.

"Chief Zheng, Chief Zheng!" Feng Xu Hui jogged over, came up behind Zheng Ren, and greeted him with a cheerful smile.

Zheng Ren turned his head, his gaze somewhat… confused.

"The Manager of Longwind Micro-creation, Feng." The handsome assistant beside Zheng Ren… the male assistant whispered.

Ouch, Chief Zheng!

Feng Xu Hui's smile turned a bit awkward.

"Manager Feng, Greeting." Zheng Ren stretched out his hand, warm and enthusiastic.

"He has severe face blindness, don't mind it." Su Yun explained.

Feng Xu Hui gave an embarrassed laugh, "Chief Zheng, the car is ready, I'll take you to the hotel."

"Oh, no need." Zheng Ren let go of his hand, smiled, and said.

"Don't be polite, coming to Di Du is like coming to my home; as a friend, how could I not entertain you? If there are any shortcomings in the hospitality, please forgive me." Feng Xu Hui didn't mind Zheng Ren's face blindness, speaking warmly yet politely.

"Just now Professor Pei told me he's waiting for me in the parking lot." Zheng Ren raised his phone.

"Professor… Pei?" Feng Xu Hui was puzzled.

"Yeah, I ran into a big trouble on the plane, luckily Professor Pei helped. But Professor Pei personally came to the airport, I'm also surprised." Zheng Ren said while identifying the parking lot's location.

"……" Feng Xu Hui almost cried, what era is this, how can even flattery and sucking up be so hard.
