Chapter 777: 765 Let Sister Give Him a Beating (Alliance Leader Xiao Yun Wan Nan Extra Chapter 5)

~7 min read 1,246 words

Zhou Jinxi and Wu Xiaomei said goodbye and left.

Seeing Wu Xiaomei still lost and dispirited, Chang Yue tightly hugged her for a few seconds, using body language to comfort her.

But Chang Yue was a full head shorter than Wu Xiaomei, so it didn't look like comfort; it looked more like she was being coquettish.

After they left and their silhouettes disappeared, Chang Yue solemnly approached Zheng Ren and asked, "Chief Zheng, you weren't just comforting her, were you?"

"No." Zheng Ren chuckled and said, "It's not even an adenoma, just a cholesterol granuloma. Although the presentation is a bit more complex, the diagnosis is fine."

Only then did Chang Yue let out a breath.

Doctors might tell patients "white lies," but among themselves they speak plainly—one says one, two says two.

Although Chang Yue didn't know how Zheng Ren arrived at that diagnosis, she trusted him and believed it anyway.

Zheng Ren held Xiao Yi Ren's hand, leaning against the wall, looking a bit tired.

"Go home and rest." Seeing Zheng Ren a little fatigued, Xie Yiren whispered in his ear.

"Boss, even doing a B-ultrasound can leave you exhausted—you really ought to take better care of yourself." Su Yun, looking at Zheng Ren through the black hair on her forehead, said, "Yi Ren, go home and make the boss some goji berry water; bring it to work tomorrow."

Xie Yiren knew Su Yun was joking, didn't take it seriously, and simply turned to interlock her fingers with Zheng Ren's, snuggling closer to him.

"Wait a moment; I have a few things to say to Director Qi." Zheng Ren spoke softly.

The Intervention Department is just a subordinate or downstream department. To develop, it must maintain good relations with all the doctors in the hospital.

Although Zheng Ren's situation doesn't involve patient sources, he's merely short of beds. Still, respecting the senior director is appropriate.

Wu Xiaomei was fine, so Chang Yue relaxed, went over to Su Yun's side, and the two whispered something.

Zheng Ren was a bit tired, holding Xiao Yi Ren's hand, feeling her fine, smooth, warm skin, and truly felt that spending a lifetime like this, growing old together, would be enough.

A few minutes later, the ultrasound room door opened, and the young patient and his mother walked out.

The patient's mother was in her thirties; deep crow's feet could be seen at the corners of her eyes, slightly sorrowful yet she forced a cheerful smile.

She placed both hands on the child's shoulders, had him stand against the wall, half‑squatted to lower herself, looked into the child's eyes, and fell silent for a moment.

"Wait here for Mommy, don't run around, be good." The mother stroked the child's head with her hand and gave a strained smile.

"Mm, don't worry, Mom, I'm a big kid now." The young patient nodded, speaking very seriously.

The woman's hand hesitated slightly, but she still stood up and walked back into the ultrasound room.

This is after the examination; the doctor will speak frankly about the condition. Everyone present is a senior physician… except Xie Yiren, everyone knows what's happening—in fact, it happens every day.

The little boy seemed fine, so Su Yun and Chang Yue didn't notice; they were chatting about going out for a late‑night snack and having a good drink.

Zheng Ren narrowed his eyes, trying to show a gentle smile as he looked at the child.

Seeing the mother go into the ultrasound room, the little boy cleverly glanced around, came up to Zheng Ren, and asked, "Big brother, is your face disobedient, so you let your sister hit you?"

"……" Zheng Ren was speechless.

What are kids learning these days?

"It's you who's not listening, right? I'm especially obedient—my mom never hits me." The boy said.

Xie Yiren found it amusing, her face full of smiles as she looked at the boy.

"Brother, could you do me a favor?"

"What's up?" Zheng Ren asked curiously.

"Add me as a QQ friend; I'll go over there to play a game. When my mom comes out later, you message me and I'll reply right away." The boy said mysteriously, "Every time my mom brings me to the hospital, we have to talk in there for ages—I get so bored."

His clear little eyes seemed to speak, carrying an emotion that made one reluctant to refuse.

Zheng Ren took out his phone—there was no lock screen password—and after turning it on, he logged straight into QQ and whispered, "What's your QQ number?"

The boy gave a number, then tiptoed and whispered even softer, "I'm right over there; you'll definitely see me in your field of view. When you see my mom come out, just Q me right away."

Zheng Ren nodded.

The boy said thanks, then happily found a corner where Zheng Ren could see him and pulled out his own phone.

Zheng Ren casually added his QQ, glanced at his status—"No classes lately, I'm giving you a chance to catch up with me—cherish it."

That way of speaking really is just like Su Yun's.

Zheng Ren held his phone; in his peripheral vision the system panel's reddish background constantly reminded him of the truth of the matter.

Regarding this matter, Zheng Ren didn't plan to tell Xiao Yi Ren. The Big Pig Trotter had let him see more; he now had to bear the various negative effects the system panel brought, or resolve them himself.

Faint light and shadow flickered in the corner; Zheng Ren guessed he had opened the game interface and was avidly playing.

As a child, I… never played, didn't understand. But seeing peers of the same age swarming to internet cafés, I had felt envious back then.

Go ahead and play, have fun—Zheng Ren watched the corner where a bit of a figure showed up and thought to himself.

Zheng Ren was watching the boy, who was spacing out, when the phone in his hand began to vibrate, startling him.

An unfamiliar Di Du number—who could it be? Zheng Ren glanced at it and quickly answered.

He feared the boy's mother would come out while he was on the phone; standing her up would be bad.

"Hello?"

"Professor Zhao, hello, hello."

When Zheng Ren mentioned Professor Zhao, Su Yun's eyes narrowed, she stopped talking with Chang Yue, her gaze sharp as she looked over through her black hair.

"Oh, okay, then I'll go take a look."

Having said that, Zheng Ren hung up.

"Boss, Professor Zhao is looking for you?" Su Yun walked over and asked.

"Yeah, he said there's a patient in general surgery with hepatic capsular worm disease accompanied by portal hypertension; he couldn't find a good solution and asked me to have a look, to see if we could do TIPS." Zheng Ren's eyes remained on the boy, not willing to look away for even a second, afraid the boy would act up and run off.

"Did you agree?" Su Yun's gaze was like looking at an idiot.

"Just go have a look."

"Can the surgery be done?"

"Definitely can't do TIPS surgery, but going to have a look won't hurt." Zheng Ren said softly, afraid of disturbing the boy's game.

"Boss, I'm telling you, before the Earthquake Relief, when you and Fugui'er were doing Shou Bing, this Professor Zhao was outside saying Idle Talk. I see his meaning, he's not very convinced." Su Yun looked at Zheng Ren, speaking very seriously.
