Chapter 492: 484 The Little Boyfriend Who Doesn't Notify Family

~8 min read 1,405 words

The big man's momentum had just risen; hearing Zheng Ren's words, his waist bent again immediately.

"Chief Zheng, look, I got excited and forgot about this. Please forgive, please forgive."

"It's fine." Zheng Ren smiled.

"Li San'er, what the hell are you doing here? Today I'll settle the debt you owe."

"I... I..." The flab on Li San's face had all drooped down, wearing an apologetic smile.

Zheng Ren couldn't be bothered to look at this jianghu face; this time he seemed to have found Xiao Liu again to "handle things."

Find some time, invite him for a skewer meal; it seems that's all we can do.

"You're busy, then I'll head back first." Zheng Ren said: "The patient's hospitalization fees will be saved as much as possible; it's best not to give up, the hope of cure is great. But severe pancreatitis, nobody can say for sure."

"Okay, Chief Zheng, you go ahead first." The big man hurriedly said with a smile. Then he turned, changed his expression, kicked the big gold chain's belly, the big gold chain's back hit the wall with a "thud."

"Chief Zheng said, take good care of your illness! Forced to raise, consider yourself lucky!"

Zheng Ren couldn't be bothered to listen; he greeted Director Xia and left the Xiao Hua Nei Ke.

Faintly from behind, the big man's scolding of the big gold chain could be heard, not very clear; probably Xiao Liu said not to cause trouble at City First Hospital, to just see a doctor properly. The big gold chain seemed to owe money and had hidden. If it weren't for his mother's illness, he couldn't show up. Looking at it this way, this person seems okay too.

Xiao Liu is quite capable; Zheng Ren smiled.

Just after leaving the Xiao Hua Nei Ke, Zheng Ren's phone rang.

His blood pressure rose slightly; Zheng Ren picked up his phone, saw it was Su Yun, and the hormone levels released in his body immediately dropped.

"Hello."

"Oh, after stepping down, Director Xia asked me for a consultation."

"Hmm, I'm about to go to the ICU to check things out; you can handle the paper matters, that's enough trust in you."

"Cut the nonsense, these few days I need to go to Sheng Cheng for surgery; are you preparing to go see?"

"Alright, let's talk when we meet."

After saying that, Zheng Ren hung up the phone and leisurely walked toward the ICU.

After the surgery, having obtained the system reward library browsing permission, Zheng Ren only glanced a few times before Gao Shaojie came in.

He intended to first make a round of patients; since there was nothing serious, he dove into the System Space to carefully examine the library's collection.

Just now he only skimmed through; Zheng Ren gained a rough understanding of the System Library.

Basically they are various journals and magazines from over the years, nothing special. Moreover, there are no future-dated magazines; all are existing.

This library, if one says it's useful, it truly is useful.

Recently Zheng Ren encountered several difficult cases, such as long-haired princess disease and the like, and thus began thinking he should read more journals.

But to say how useful it is, that's not practical.

If one could see future journals, it would definitely be better. Imagine, seeing what is written in journals ten years from now, being ahead of the times, how wonderful that would be.

Unfortunately, the Big Pig Trotter seems not to have this ability.

However, being able to browse all literature resources without leaving home saves search time, which is not bad.

Thinking this, Zheng Ren had already arrived at the ICU entrance.

An ICU doctor was explaining the condition to a young man.

The young man looked fatigued, with dark eye circles, his hair appeared unwashed for several days, resembling a sokkatsu style.

While speaking, the young man bowed repeatedly, very sincere; Zheng Ren could feel it.

"Chief Zheng, you're here." The ICU doctor saw Zheng Ren and warmly greeted him.

"Hmm, busy?"

"Yun Ge'er is waiting for you inside; I'll finish chatting and then go in." The ICU doctor called out.

Zheng Ren changed clothes and entered the ICU, seeing Su Yun leaning against the nurse station's counter, chatting and laughing with the little nurses.

This means nothing is wrong; whenever Zheng Ren sees Su Yun chatting and laughing, he knows the patient's condition is stable.

"Boss, you're here?" Su Yun greeted.

"Hmm, the patient stable? When can we extubate?" Zheng Ren asked.

"The day after tomorrow." Su Yun said casually.

Zheng Ren nodded, came to the bed of the boy impaled by rebar, the background color in the upper right corner of the System Panel faded considerably, a sign of improving condition.

As long as he gets better, that's fine; Zheng Ren thought of the patient's parents squatting on the ground leaning against the wall, hoping inwardly that this boy wouldn't have to be so competitive and strong-willed.

He could get into Peking University; is being first really that important?

Perhaps some top students think that way, but when they reach Peking University they will suffer a huge blow.

Because the most awesome top student—there's only one!

When thirty or fifty top students from across the country gather, there's always a ranking.

If the child isn't ambitious, it's worrisome; if his aspirations are too high, that's also not good.

Zheng Ren saw that the drainage near the patient's anus had basically disappeared, the gauze dressing on the incision was clean and fresh, knowing Su Yun had just changed the medicine.

This assistant is truly flawless; Zheng Ren praised inwardly. If he weren't so eager to spray people, wouldn't it be better?

Just finished the physical examination, the ICU doctor who had been communicating with the patient's family outside walked in.

Her complexion looked a bit bad.

"What's up? Did the patient's family provoke you?" Su Yun asked.

"Yun Ge'er, it's fine." The ICU doctor shook his head, "I wasn't provoked; I just feel uneasy in my heart."

"What patient?" Zheng Ren asked.

"Influenza, complicated with pneumonia; last night he was taken directly from the ER to the ICU." Su Yun said: "His condition is particularly poor; upon examination, he has congenital heart disease. The patient's family only has a little boyfriend who refuses to contact his family no matter what."

"Which one?" Zheng Ren asked.

"Bed J-8."

Zheng Ren walked over and saw a twenty-one- or twenty-two-year-old girl lying there, with a tracheal tube, assisted by a ventilator.

The diagnosis shown on the system panel wasn't extensive: double pneumonia, respiratory failure, an unclosed artery catheter, and a few other items.

The artery catheter is a normal blood flow channel between the pulmonary artery and the aorta in fetal life; after birth the catheter closes on its own due to disuse.

In some people the artery catheter does not close on its own, resulting in mixing of arterial and venous blood, which leads to insufficient oxygen in arterial blood and related symptoms.

The clinical manifestations of an unclosed artery catheter mainly depend on the volume of blood shunted from the aorta to the pulmonary artery and whether secondary pulmonary hypertension develops and its severity.

Mild patients may have no obvious symptoms; severe patients may develop heart failure, cyanosis of the lips and lower body, and similar symptoms.

Zheng Ren checked and found the patient's symptoms fairly typical.

Because the flu caused bilateral pneumonia, blood oxygen levels continued to decrease, leading to respiratory failure and other complications.

Treatment is not difficult.

Whether it's surgically splitting the sternum and ligating the artery catheter, using a mediastinoscope with a titanium clip to block it, or undergoing interventional therapy, all can cure it.

But given the patient's current condition, having the Cardiothoracic Surgery perform Shou Bing is difficult even for the strong.

But interventional therapy can still treat it.

Seeing Zheng Ren lost in thought, Su Yun walked over to his side, sighed, and said, "Boss, are you thinking about the Shou Bing?"

Zheng Ren didn't speak, just nodded.

"The patient has no money." Su Yun directly stated the most critical and sharp question: "Every day the money is negative, but her little boyfriend is truly loyal, making up the shortfall early and then urging payment."

"What about her family?"

"This is the strangest, her little boyfriend refuses to say anything and doesn't notify her family."
