Chapter 3039: line with translation of chapter title

"Chunyong, why did you bring them here?" Zhou Chun Yong's mother saw Zheng Ren approach to ask about the medical history; she didn't want to stop him, but she always had a grudge, so she pulled Zhou Chun Yong aside and asked.

"Mom, you don't know how busy Zheng Lao Ban is." Zhou Chun Yong laughed and cried, "It's not that we didn't find the cause; I used a lot of face to get Zheng Lao Ban to come. He's really good at seeing patients, so rest assured."

"There's not a single reliable one." Zhou Chun Yong's mother nagged, "Last time you scared my eldest grandson, and now you've put my eldest grandson in a full-time school, so I only get to see him on weekends..."

Zhou Chun Yong knew his mother was about to start nagging again, so he quickly stopped her; this wasn't the time to argue about spoiling the child. Zheng Lao Ban was asking about the medical history over there, and afterward he'd need to coordinate what tests to do.

After all, it's not 912, nor the Di Du Hepatobiliary department; relying on Zheng Lao Ban's favor on this side, I can't let him be slighted.

"Mom, don't say that now; wait until Zheng Lao Ban finishes seeing Aunt Liu before we talk." Zhou Chun Yong said.

"Are you bullying Mom because she's old, trying to fool her?" Zhou Chun Yong's mother said, "Look at how young he is, yet he's dyed half his hair white— not proper..."

Zhou Chun Yong immediately pulled his mother outside; the more she said, the more unreasonable it got. Zheng Lao Ban was still okay, but if Su Yun heard this, I'd be in trouble.

Stepping outside, Zhou Chun Yong complained, "Mom, do you think anyone can summon Zheng Lao Ban? Come on, he's about to go to Sweden to accept an award; I dragged him off the plane."

"Sigh..." Zhou Chun Yong's mother sighed, a worry beyond words showing between her brows.

"What about Aunt Liu's child?"

"In the morning I'll call, but Aunt Liu says she won't do anything. She says it's evening over there, the kids are asleep, so it's pointless."

"What time is it now, and you still aren't hurrying to call? You're really waiting to come back and collect a corpse." Zhou Chun Yong said contemptuously.

"You kid just can't speak properly; at your age, you're still talking nonsense. What corpse are you collecting? Aunt Liu is strong and healthy." Zhou Chun Yong's mother scolded.

Zhou Chun Yong and his mother spoke for a few minutes, then Su Yun called from inside, "Director Zhou!"

"Coming, coming." Zhou Chun Yong immediately walked in.

"Let's do a gastroscopy to have a look; I've checked, the lab results were already there, and I just finished washing out the stomach and haven't eaten. Could you help coordinate it?" Zheng Ren asked.

It was exactly noon; at this time, doing a check wasn't about squeezing in or queuing, but using other doctors' lunch breaks, so Zhou Chun Yong needed to use his connections.

Zhou Chun Yong didn't even ask why a cough needed a gastroscopy; since Zheng Lao Ban said so, he immediately started coordinating.

"Auntie, there's nothing wrong." Zheng Ren said with a smile, "Doing a check, there's a good chance we'll find the problem. Treatment is also simple; you can rest easy."

After saying that, he stood up and left the bedside.

"Boss, could it be a hiatal hernia?" Su Yun asked doubtfully.

"Hmm, it's possible." Zheng Ren said vaguely, "Logically it all makes sense."

Su Yun also heard the patient's history; he had his own judgment, frowned and was speechless. He had also considered this diagnosis, so let's first do a check and see.

Zhou Chun Yong ran back and forth, and after half an hour he finished arranging the gastroscopy, then came to tell Zheng Ren about it.

"Zheng Lao Ban, it's this time already, the endoscopy room at Fu Yuan is still busy; I found a resting professor to do it." Zhou Chun Yong laughed, "Originally I thought you could just go up and do it yourself, just need a platform, but I felt we shouldn't do that; can we wait outside for you to look?"

"No problem." Zheng Ren smiled, "After the gastroscopy and contacting the patient's family, I estimate we'll need a minor surgery, and then they'll be fine."

"What disease are you considering?" Zhou Chun Yong asked at that point.

"Hiatal hernia."

Zhou Chun Yong let out a long sigh; cough, hiatal hernia, urinary incontinence—only Zheng Lao Ban could connect the problems so quickly and give a clear answer.

After that, Zhou Chun Yong made several more calls, once everything was arranged he filled out the form and paid, then ran all the way to send the patient for the examination.

Arriving at the endoscopy room door, a doctor in his forties stood outside looking left and right. Seeing Zhou Chun Yong approach, he immediately went up and said with a grin, "Director Zhou, long time no see."

"Xiao Wu, let me introduce you." Zhou Chun Yong greeted him, then introduced Professor Wu, Zheng Ren, and Su Yun.

Professor Wu was very courteous, lowering his posture; he didn't seem to mind Zheng Ren's previous "arrogance" at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital.

"Zheng Lao Ban, are you here to do it? Can I follow along and learn?" After the greetings, Professor Wu asked with a smile.

"No, no." Zheng Ren said, "We'll just wait outside; it's only a gastroscopy, no need to crowd in. Suspecting a hiatal hernia, please be thorough."

Professor Wu was being polite; it's his endoscopy room, a perfunctory invitation is enough to save face. If it were really such a minor check, Zheng Ren would still insist on doing it himself, as if he didn't trust anyone.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Indeed, Professor Wu then said, "Director Zhou, you need to go in as the patient's family member."

"Sure." Zhou Chun Yong nodded, arranged for Zheng Ren to sit down, and he escorted the patient into the endoscopy room.

"Boss, you really have nothing to do but idle." Su Yun said after sitting down.

"It's not that I'm idly bored; this is clinical experience." Zheng Ren smiled, "If you don't ask about the medical history, who would think that cough and urinary incontinence are caused by a hiatal hernia?"

"You're that sure?"

"Pretty much, it makes sense; you've also heard the history, so there aren't many doubts."

As he said that, Su Yun fell silent, fiddling with his phone.

"I'll go back later and check on Xiao Shitou." Zheng Ren said, "The recent exams show the lung tissue fibrosis has worsened a bit."

"That medicine is too domineering; it's been stopped for how long, and the fibrosis hasn't reversed." Su Yun said, "Boss, I asked, lung tissue can be printed, but it's still in the trial stage. Otherwise we could look for a lung source and see when to do it."

"Let me think about it again." Zheng Ren said, "Hope..."

"Your mindset is just like a patient's family member, always hoping for a miracle."

"Xiao Shitou being alive until now is already a miracle."

"How's the liver?" Su Yun asked.

"We still need two interventions, preparing to do them in these days. First we'll do the liver; anyway, interventional surgery causes little damage, though it might be quite painful. Otherwise I'm worried that if we use the immunomodulatory agent, the tumor could explode in growth."

Su Yun nodded, knowing Zheng Ren had wanted to use the technology of autologous cell cloning 3D printing, which is still immature.

That way, besides the surgical strike, no medication would be needed. Now immunity is quite important for Xiao Shitou; otherwise, if we just gave medication, the surgery might be pointless.

This kid... really gives me a headache.
