Chapter 2033: 1961: Two Lines of Tears from a Single Person

Zheng Renhe and Su Yun played off each other like a crosstalk duo; in just a few words they left the little boy's mother bewildered.

In the end, she took the little boy and left, almost overwhelmed by fear.

From this, it seems she may develop an inexplicable fear of hospitals in the future. This place is not somewhere ordinary people can come.

"Zheng Lao Ban, Yun Ge'er, how did you two persuade her?" Zhou Litao was somewhat curious.

"He was just scaring her." Zheng Ren said.

"That's not right!" Su Yun said, "It's just telling the truth, or giving a pre-operative briefing."

"Tsk tsk, if I had known I would have scared her too, but I was afraid of offending her." Zhou Litao whispered.

"Manager Zhou, just don't try it." Su Yun patted his shoulder and said.

"Ah?"

"Even when you read seriously, it's like ordering food at a fly-infested eatery; if you really try to scare her, you might actually make her angry." Su Yun spoke frankly.

"Don't keep hitting Manager Zhou like that." Zheng Ren said, "One or two times is enough; saying it over and over is pointless."

"Do you think he seems to know what's going on?" Su Yun laughed, "Just like seeing a patient, a certain symptom presentation doesn't necessarily mean the same condition."

Zheng Ren chuckled and asked, "Busy, Manager Zhou?"

"Not busy." Zhou Litao actually still had a sense of it; he wasn't discouraged by Su Yun's description, and instantly his spirits lifted: "This morning there was a fight, it caused a commotion for a while. After that nothing happened, so today I'm not busy."

"What era is this, how can there still be fights?"

"This isn't Monday rush hour traffic jam. Two cars scraped, the drivers started arguing. A disagreement, emotions flared, they began shouting. One hot-headed driver couldn't hold back and threw a punch."

"And then?"

"At the hospital, the anger subsided and the person wimped out." Zhou Litao said, "First we discuss how much to compensate; anyway, at least it's a minor injury. If they don't go through civil mediation, they might end up detained for a few days."

"This kind of thing is the sort of situation most commonly encountered in the Emergency Department."

"Street arguments, many times are because people can't suppress their anger; a few heated words and they lash out."

"Afterward, the parties involved usually regret it deeply."

"However, since the Public Security Bureau started posting those little notices saying 'count the cost of fighting,' such incidents have clearly decreased a lot."

"We still need to popularize it; those six-character notices reduce nationwide minor frictions by at least tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands each year."

"Many things just blow over with a laugh; there's really no need to make a big fuss."

"Zheng Lao Ban, I saw your Moments update—who's that girl?" Zhou Litao's small eyes darted about, unfocused.

"Manager Zhou, with that expression you look like no good person." Su Yun chuckled, "Originally there was nothing, but looking at your face, it's like you've done something shady."

"..."

"That really hit the nail on the head."

Zhou Litao felt a bit embarrassed, he scratched his head, "Those two girls are really pretty; I almost want to set them as my phone wallpaper."

"Pretty, huh." Su Yun laughed brightly, putting his arm around Zhou Litao's shoulder and whispered.

Zheng Ren didn't want to watch; once Su Yun puts on that expression, Zhou Litao will at least suffer a critical hit next.

"Not even one counts; it could be a combo. How it turns out depends on Su Yun's mood."

"It could go from full health to low health, and finally end with a KO."

"Pretty." Zhou Litao thought of the Chu Family Sisters' appearance, his mouth almost watering.

"Don't dwell on it." Su Yun rarely said much, seeming to have something on his mind, he chuckled, "When the boss was the Inpatient Chief in Hai Cheng, people just showed up to become anesthesiologists."

"Uh..."

Zhou Litao had no concept of such a windfall.

"Having grown up this way, every step of his has been hard-won. All he needs to pray for each day is that no bricks fall from the sky; as for the pie, it's still two slices that look delicious..."

"When a beautiful woman shows up, that's Zheng Lao Ban's luck; I can't count on that."

Zhou Litao let out a deep sigh.

"Love at first sight?" Su Yun asked.

"Yun Ge'er, you're saying I'm lusting after beauty?" Zhou Litao sighed again.

Su Yun wore an expression that said 'you know what's up.'

Zhou Litao's small eyes darted as he watched Zheng Ren standing in the lobby, gazing at the incoming patients; he whispered, "Yun Ge'er, you say the boss's looks are just ordinary, so how does he have such good luck?"

"You're envious; look at your Inpatient Chief position, then look at the boss's Inpatient Chief role."

"Yeah, I'm envious in my heart. If you say Zheng Lao Ban is skilled, I admit that. But his luck is also so good, constant peach blossoms—how can the gap be this big for a person?"

"Knowing the gap is big is enough." Su Yun lowered his voice and laughed, "Don't dream; once you finish being Inpatient Chief, hurry up and find a girlfriend."

As soon as that came up, Zhou Litao started to look worried and glum. His countless freckles lacked luster, as if hit by frost.

Today Su Yun was in a good mood, so he didn't combo Zhou Litao much.

"Zheng Lao Ban! What are you doing here!"

Zhou Litao was lamenting the unfairness of fate when a tall girl, fully half a head taller than him, strode over with head held high.

She wore a white coat, buttons undone, revealing the plain shirt and tie underneath. Gentle yet with a dash of sprightliness, and within that sprightliness a hint of national beauty and fragrance.

Tall and long-legged, with each step her ponytail swayed, adding a touch of playfulness.

Zhou Litao's eyes went wide, almost to the point of his eyeballs popping out.

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Su Yun asked.

"This… who is this again?" Zhou Litao felt his mouth go dry, he didn't even have saliva.

The twin sisters in Zheng Lao Ban's video are like beings from the heavens, only to be admired from afar; I certainly can't go to Hai Cheng and act like a lovesick fool.

But this one, at a glance you can tell she's a doctor from the 912.

But… I've never seen her before? And she has no name tag, how strange!

"She came to the door herself today, crying and shouting that she wants a position in the Medical Team." Su Yun said disdainfully, "You say, what's all this about?"

"……" Zhou Litao silently shed two lines of tears of being single.

Zheng Lao Ban already has a girlfriend, so why does he still keep getting romantic luck? How unfair heaven is!

Why doesn't she come to the Emergency Department, insisting on joining my Medical Team instead? If that were the case, how wonderful the world would be, with birds singing and flowers fragrant, and my life would seem to have reached its peak.

Zhou Litao thought and thought, the more he thought, the more aggrieved he felt.

Moreover, looking at Zheng Lao Ban's attitude, he seems to have no intention of dealing with this girl at all.

Truly…… a well-fed person doesn't know the hunger of the starving.
