When they arrived at Sea City General Hospital, a welcoming ceremony was organized at the hospital.

When Zheng Ren saw this, he could not help but feel exhausted.

After the simple welcoming ceremony, Director Xiao brought the few of them to see the place where they would be studying and working in the future—the emergency building at Sea City General Hospital.

The official event would definitely be long and tedious. However, it would only be a ceremony if things were like that.

After a busy afternoon and during dinner, Director Xiao would definitely personally come over to ask them out for dinner too.

However, Chief w.a.n.g and the others had made their order of duty clear. The Imperial Capital required them to get into working mode once they got off the plane.

Military orders were like mountains. Drinking alcohol was no longer acceptable.

Director Xiao felt a little regretful but he was working at Sea City General Hospital and could not pester them too much.

A drinking party without alcohol was especially boring.

Zheng Ren sat in a corner, lonely and cold. He hoped that the emergency department would have emergency surgery so that he could send the team back. For the sake of the meal, Xie Yiren could not attend her birthday party that night.

Although Little Yiren did not say anything, Zheng Ren was still unhappy.

For Zheng Ren, performing surgery was far more enjoyable than facing the Director and the chief of hospital administrations. Furthermore, he would also be together with Little Yiren.

It was past eight o’clock and things were as he wished. The emergency department finally called and said that an emergency appendectomy patient had just been admitted to the hospital.

Chief w.a.n.g immediately expressed that he wanted to familiarize himself with the emergency operating theater.

Therefore, at the request of the group, the session ended immediately. Zheng Ren brought Chief w.a.n.g and the others back to the emergency building of Sea City General Hospital to prepare for the surgery.

When they entered the corridor of the emergency ward, the patient’s family members were shocked.

A group of people swarmed in. They seemed like a bunch of righteous people marching in a steadfast pace.

The group of people changed into their surgery gowns and began to do the physical examinations and consultations to prepare for the surgery.

The family members were dumbfounded. Was the emergency department not dealing with just acute appendicitis? Could it be that they had not told them the truth?

What kind of serious illness did the patient have?

Otherwise, why would so many doctors appear at the same time? Moreover, the group of people looked different from the usual doctors at Sea City.

The patient’s wife was a little timid. She quietly pulled Zheng Ren aside and asked worriedly, “Doctor, what… What kind of illness does my husband have?”

Zheng Ren was stunned for a moment, but he immediately came to a realization.

“It’s just acute appendicitis. After a minor operation, it’ll be cured very quickly.” Zheng Ren smiled and comforted her. After that, he said, “Our hospital is collaborating with the Imperial Capital Hospital. These are all the doctors from the Imperial Capital who came to Sea City to support us.”

The patient’s family immediately looked surprised and asked, “Then my wife’s surgery…”

“It’ll be done by the doctors from the Imperial Capital.”

They did not expect to find such a treasure. The patient’s family smiled and immediately went back to tell the patient the news.

“Chief Zheng, do you have many patients?” Chief w.a.n.g came over and asked.

Upon hearing that question, Zheng Ren immediately thought of Department Chief Kong. He immediately said with a serious face, “Chief w.a.n.g, I don’t talk about such things.”

Chief w.a.n.g was a clinical frontliner, so he immediately understood what Zheng Ren meant. He chuckled and winked.

“Usually I’m alright with that sort of stuff but last time, Department Chief Kong drank some wine and said that he wanted the situation at the emergency department for himself. After that, more than twenty emergency cases came in one night.” When Zheng Ren recalled it, he still had lingering fear in his heart. “It’s exhausting to perform surgeries throughout the night.”

Chief w.a.n.g nodded. He would not make such a mistake.

Zheng Ren did not care about the patient. Instead, he watched Chief w.a.n.g consult and check the patient’s body. After that, he helped push the patient to the operating theater.

The chief resident from Imperial Capital Hospital did things in a methodical way. Zheng Ren could not find any fault with him. The first surgery allowed Chief w.a.n.g to familiarize himself with the procedure. That was it.

The main thing was to recognize which changing room was which so they would not accidentally go into the wrong one.

The surgery went by very smoothly. It was a simple appendicitis. Even if they wanted to spend more time on it, they could not.

After leaving the stage, Zheng Ren brought Chief w.a.n.g around the ward and the emergency department clinical decision unit, telling him the scope of responsibility as chief resident.

In particular, he reminded Chief w.a.n.g that everything was to a.s.sist Old Chief Physician Pan. Chief w.a.n.g naturally understood that point. They were all pa.s.sersby and did not have much contact with Sea City General Hospital.

On the way back to the emergency ward, Zheng Ren thought of something and asked, “Chief w.a.n.g, I remember that when we were in the Imperial Capital, didn’t you say that you were going to resign and go to the Straits Hospital?”

“Yes.” Chief w.a.n.g nodded and said, “Something has happened recently.”

“Since you’ve come back to support us, I’m a.s.suming you took a downgrade?” Zheng Ren said half-seriously and half-jokingly. Since Chief w.a.n.g did not say anything, he did not poke him about it.

“Sigh, I still want to leave but am a little reluctant. There’s also a problem with the procedures.” Chief w.a.n.g sighed.

Zheng Ren did not try to persuade him. Each person had a choice, just like how he insisted on staying in Sea City General Hospital.

It was not good to talk too much about things that had nothing to do with him.

If he continued to work with Chief w.a.n.g, he could imagine that the emergency department at Sea City General Hospital would have a huge leap in development after a week to half a month.

At around ten o’clock, Su Yun dragged Zheng Ren away and said to Chief w.a.n.g, “We still have things to do so you can take care over here.”

“Okay, Brother Yun,” Chief w.a.n.g replied with a smile.

“If there’s something you can’t solve, give us a call. Don’t force yourself.” Su Yun’s words were still unwelcoming, but Chief w.a.n.g seemed to have prepared for it. He just smiled and agreed to it.

Su Yun pulled Zheng Ren out of the emergency building’s main entrance as snowflakes fell from the sky.

“Boss, your luck is really good. I’m starting to envy you.” Su Yun sighed. “When it snows, it’s the most romantic.”

“How are the preparations on your end? There won’t be any problems, right?” Zheng Ren asked.

“You’ll know once you get there.” Su Yun was still as mysterious as ever.

Feng Xuhui’s car was already waiting at the door. Just as he was about to get into the car, Zheng Ren suddenly remembered that Lin Jiaojiao had brought him the lipsticks.

He immediately jumped out of the car and ran all the way back to the office. He went back to the duty room to retrieve the box and quickly return.

Su Yun looked at the box in Zheng Ren’s hand in surprise. It was as if he was looking at an alien.

After getting into the car, Su Yun asked, “Boss, has your personality changed?”

“Huh?”

“A typical incel holding thirty-six colored lipsticks in his hand. They looked to be limited edition too. Why does it feel like the end of the world?” Su Yun said.

“Oh.” Zheng Ren could not be bothered with him. He hummed and ignored him.

A few seconds later, Su Yun suddenly came to a realization.

“I know! No wonder Sister Lin asked me about your girlfriend a few days ago. Did you ask Sister Lin to buy a birthday present for Little Yiren?” Su Yun had demonic intelligence and immediately guessed the truth.

“Yes, I was thinking that Sister Lin is a beautician and earns money from women so she would know more about what women like,” Zheng Ren said. “She’s indeed very professional in that aspect.”

“Professional?” Su Yun reprimanded, “Boss, can’t you smell the strong smell of money that’s coming from that box?”

“Uh…” Zheng Ren had thought about it too but could not really imagine it.

He could not guess how much the box of lipsticks was worth.

Su Yun saw Zheng Ren’s confused expression and shook his head, ignoring him.
