Chapter 837: Potato Salad
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Time ticked by, little by little.
Chief Qi performed the ultrasound while asking about the history and evolution of the disease.
It was obvious that the patient had a history of cholecyst.i.tis, and the position of pain that the old man had described matched. The ultrasound probe pressed on the Murphy’s sign. There was tenderness, but there was no rebound tenderness or muscle guarding.
But…
The ultrasound showed that there was nothing wrong with the gallbladder!
Chief Qi checked it bit by bit, afraid that he would miss a single frame of the image.
Ten minutes…
Fifteen minutes…
Thirty minutes…
The ultrasound took half an hour.
Chief Qi suddenly asked, “Comrade Zheng Ren, Comrade Su Yun, do you see the problem?”
“No,” Zheng Ren said honestly. “I don’t think there is a problem.”
Hearing Zheng Ren say this, Chief Qi’s hand froze for a moment. The probe in his hand was as heavy as a thousand tons.
He hesitated for a few seconds before making a difficult decision.
“Leader, the ultrasound did not find any problem. I suggest that we check the nuclear MRI,” Chief Qi wiped off the coupling agent and said seriously.
The old man sat up from the bed and put on his clothes. He glanced at Chief Qi and did not say anything. He turned around and left.
The pressure from his gaze was as if he was really ill.
When the old man walked out of the door, the secretary smiled and said, “Chief Qi, thank you for your trouble. The drill is over.”
After saying that, he bowed slightly and left the clinic.
‘Drill? What the h.e.l.l was this?’ Zheng Ren was stunned.
Chief Qi let out a long breath and sat down on the chair to ease his nervousness.
“Chief Qi, what’s going on?” Zheng Ren asked in confusion.
He could see that Chief Qi’s nervous back drenched in sweat, and his own white clothes were wet.
“I was wondering why there was nothing wrong.” Chief Qi calmed down before he regained his spirit. “Boss Zheng, there are always drills when the strategy team is on duty.
“But you must not neglect every mission. The drill is to keep the health team members on alert at all times. You must not make a joke out of a drill.
“You must remember this.”
Zheng Ren knew that these were all heartfelt words, so he nodded and replied.
“Isn’t that old man a leader?” Su Yun asked in surprise.
“Yes, he must be an ordinary person,” Chief Qi said.
Su Yun was very surprised. He thought that his selection skills were not bad, and it could even be said that they were particularly good. Just now, he absolutely did not see any problems.
The old man watched, and the dignity in his every move was real. At the very least, Su Yun did not see any flaws.
‘Really… there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers,’ Su Yun thought with emotion.
“Well, the mission is over!” It seemed that this was not the first time Chief Qi had carried out such a drill . He quickly adjusted himself and said with a smile, “Boss Zheng, I heard that you did a surgery live broadcast today?”
“Yes.” Zheng Ren nodded.
When Chief Qi saw that Zheng Ren was listless, he thought that it was because he was too nervous, so he patted Zheng Ren’s shoulder to comfort him.
“Let’s eat together another day. Let’s forget about today.” Chief Qi changed his clothes and went out of the clinic with Zheng Ren and Su Yun.
Seeing Chief Qi leave, Zheng Ren felt like his brain was full of paste. It was not about the drill, but the roller coaster that afternoon. It was simply too terrifying.
“Boss, you were really brave just now,” Su Yun moved closer to Zheng Ren and said with a smile. “Chief Qi didn’t even dare say that it’s nothing.”
“Nothing is nothing. If you can’t tell, there’s something wrong with your skills,” Zheng Ren said.
“That’s true, but you’re too careless,” Su Yun said.
He did not know that Zheng Ren had first judged it through the System panel, then had looked at the B-scan image again. He had even done all sorts of checks and reconstructions in his mind three to five times before he said it.
If he was not careful, then what was there to be careful about?
“I’m already very careful. Don’t worry,” Zheng Ren said.
Su Yun saw that Zheng Ren looked like he was on the verge of death. He frowned and asked, “Boss, can you still go to dinner tonight?”
“I can,” Zheng Ren said. “I have to go and celebrate anyway. I can’t spoil everyone’s mood.”
“Oh, Boss, your EQ is rising. Just don’t forget to pay for dinner tonight. Don’t lie down and pretend to sleep after dinner. Don’t refuse to pay.”
“We don’t need that bit of money,” Zheng Ren forced a smile and said.
“Why do I feel like I have to pay you half of my salary today when you talk about us?” Su Yun looked at Zheng Ren with disdain.
“Let’s go.” Zheng Ren was not in the mood to joke with Su Yun. The feeling of riding a roller coaster was really bad. Now, Zheng Ren felt that he might as well be like the Grim Reaper…
Blergh. He could not say such unlucky words.
The two of them went downstairs and saw Xie Yiren sitting in the red Volvo, chatting on her phone. They walked straight over.
“Zheng Ren, you look very uncomfortable. Do you need a transfusion?” Xie Yiren saw Zheng Ren’s pale face and hurriedly opened the car door. She hurried down and asked with concern.
“I’m a little uncomfortable, but it’s no problem.” Zheng Ren forced a smile.
It was really embarra.s.sing. If it was a normal illness, it would have been fine. After riding on a roller coaster, he was so scared that he got sick…
This matter would probably be used by Su Yun to make fun of him for the rest of his life.
“Are you really okay?” Xie Yiren turned her head and looked at Zheng Ren’s face. Suddenly, she reached out and touched his forehead.
“It’s not hot.” Zheng Ren grabbed little Yiren’s hand and comforted her.
“Hey, don’t spread dog food,” Su Yun said, as he did not like Zheng Ren making public displays of affection.
“Zheng Ren is sick,” Xie Yiren said with some worry.
“He was scared. Good for you!” Su Yun opened the car door and sat behind the pa.s.senger seat. “Old Mo. Let’s Go!”
Xie Yiren repeatedly confirmed that Zheng Ren was okay. Then, she got in the car and drove to the Moscow restaurant.
Su Yun had booked the North Exhibition restaurant. It was said that the Russian food there was the most authentic.
“Su Yun, I’ve been to Old Mo once. There’s nothing special about it,” Xie Yiren said as she drove.
“Isn’t it a celebration today? Let’s go drink vodka. Old Mo’s bread and other things are quite mediocre. It’s not freshly baked. What’s so good about cold bread? But their vodka is really the kind that burns at a little bit,” Su Yun said. Zheng Ren felt as if his alcohol bug had appeared.
“What’s so good about it?” Zheng Ren said.
“Boss, you’re not strong enough to drink it. But could you please not complain about vodka not being good?” Su Yun retorted without thinking.
“Is vodka good? From my impression, it seems to be made of potatoes.” Zheng Ren ignored him and changed the topic to another direction.
“Yes, it’s made of potatoes, which is different from our grain wine. But Boss, when you think about it, it’s just a bottle of potato salad. With that fact, the vodka is not so strong anymore.”
