“Son, the doctor said that I’m fine,” the old lady said timidly.
“You’re the doctor?” The man who came in with his shoulders hunched and his arms around a flirtatious woman looked at Zheng Ren in surprise.
“h.e.l.lo, I’m Doctor Zheng from the Department of Interventional Medicine.”
“You’re a student, right? Where’s your teacher? Why do you say that my mother is fine? Yesterday, the chief said that my mother has to perform a surgery called ‘kicking something’!” The man’s eyebrows were raised, and he looked fierce.
Zheng Ren saw that his clothes were more ordinary. There were many pieces to his clothes, and they were s.h.i.+ny. They looked like the clothes of a young child.
Recently, Zheng Ren had accompanied Xie Yiren to go shopping, and he had gained some understanding of the brand. He knew a little about what was truly luxurious, what looked luxurious, and what looked dazzling but actually did not cost much.
Wearing clothes was one thing. Zheng Ren saw that the man was wearing a big gold chain around his neck, and he smiled for no reason. In Old Guo’s words, the chain was more than two catties heavy, the kind that could be used to tie a dog at home at night.
“Mom, you told the doctor, right?” The middle-aged man saw that Zheng Ren did not speak, and immediately realized what had happened, so he said very sternly, “It’s okay. Our family has money, and we don’t need this little money for treatment!”
Zheng Ren still agreed with this statement. That big golden chain was not something that people who did not lack meals could wear.
It was just that he did not know if he would dare to wear it in the water when swimming.
“Doctor, where is your teacher?”
“I am.” Zheng Ren smiled and said, “The person that the chief is talking about is me.”
“You?” The man was stunned for a moment. His face was full of distrust.
Zheng Ren was a little regretful.
In the future, when he came out for consultation, it seemed that he would have to bring Professor Rudolf Wagner out with him.
With the professor around, this kind of troublesome explanation would happen much less.
He could not even bring Su Yun out. Both of them looked young, and no matter how much charm the System gave them, it would not be enough.
“I specialize in this kind of surgery, so don’t worry about this. Auntie’s illness can be treated with surgery. As long as you pay attention to your diet after the surgery, the possibility of vomiting blood again is relatively small,” Zheng Ren said this to the patient’s son. He also said it to the patient herself.
If the patient tried every possible way to refuse, Zheng Ren was worried that something might happen after the surgery.
However, the old lady’s son was annoying to look at. This old lady was a person who spoiled her son. Zheng Ren roughly saw the situation clearly and was a little puzzled.
According to this mother-son relations.h.i.+p, the usual situation would be in a local hospital like Sea City. The son of the patient was the type of person who did not have the money and could only pretend to be poor. Seeing that there were five or six of them, he could only find an excuse to get discharged.
However, this old lady repeatedly emphasized that she did not want to treat the patient, but she was reprimanded by her son to come to the Imperial Capital.
This mother-and-son pair was very strange.
Zheng Ren was thinking about the matter in his heart. He did not say much to the old lady. After giving a few simple instructions, he called the son of the patient out of the ward.
What kind of mentality would the family members have after he left the patient? They would probably not pretend anymore.
Zheng Ren said, “I’ve seen the radiographic films. If you want to perform the surgery, tell Chief Liu from the Digestive Department and then come to me for the preoperative signature.”
After he said that, Zheng Ren turned around and left the ward.
The moment he walked out, Zheng Ren turned around and said, “How can I not understand? Look for me in the Interventional Department’s office during working hours.”
After leaving the ward, Zheng Ren went to the office and said to Chief Liu, “I’ve seen the patient. The surgery can be done. If my family agrees, I’ll need to do nuclear MRI before the surgery to determine the location of the puncture point.”
“Boss Zheng, I heard from Chief Luo that the article you published in the New England Journal talked about the problem of the location of the surgery using nuclear MRI?”
“Yes.” Zheng Ren smiled.
Director Liu put down the work in his hands enthusiastically and began to ask Zheng Ren about some technical details.
As soon as they chatted, Zheng Ren knew that Chief Liu must have read his article carefully. However, when he thought of the article, Zheng Ren still felt a little embarra.s.sed. He was only responsible for the surgery, and the rest was done by Su Yun.
Was this the treatment of a Boss? Zheng Ren was absent-minded. When he was in school, he heard from his seniors that postgraduate students and doctoral students were just experimental dogs. Whatever the boss did, he would leave it to his subordinates to do, including the work of picking up and sending the children. There were even some excessive bosses who would leave the housework to the students.
‘I have already treated Su Yun very well,’ Zheng Ren thought.
Chief Liu raised a few questions, and they all hit the nail on the head. Zheng Ren was not stingy and explained in detail to her.
However, using nuclear MRI to determine the location of the blood vessels and thus find the correct puncture point to successfully perform an operation that hit the nail on the head was a particularly difficult task.
Not to mention Su Yun, that monster, even Gao Shaojie from the Affiliated Hospital of Medical University had to study for a whole month before he barely mastered it.
As for whether Professor Liu had learned it or not, Zheng Ren did not know yet.
Zheng Ren was not optimistic that Chief Liu would be able to master it in a short period of time. Even so, Zheng Ren still patiently explained the key points to her.
After more than ten minutes, Chief Liu’s brain stopped working and she completely short-circuited.
‘I still haven’t seen enough of the radiographic films,’ Zheng Ren thought to himself.
“Then let’s stop here. If the patient’s family agrees to the surgery, please let me know. I’ll contact them immediately so that I can take them to do the magnetic diffusion,” Zheng Ren said. “By the way, if it’s a surgery, don’t let the patient eat or drink in the morning.”
Chief Liu knew all this. She politely sent Zheng Ren to the door of the ward.
“Get lost! Get lost!” Zheng Ren had just walked to the door when he heard a roar from outside.
Chief Liu frowned. It was rude to make a loud noise in the hospital. However, Zheng Ren’s footsteps paused for a moment. He felt that the voice was very familiar.
When he walked out of the ward, Zheng Ren saw the familiar golden chain.
The man took out two 100-dollar bills from his shriveled wallet and stuffed them into the woman’s hands. He cursed, “What the h.e.l.l? We agreed on a price, yet you insist on increasing it.”
“Brother, you didn’t say that you were coming to the hospital. Look here, is this the place where good people come? I was scared the moment I entered. I was almost scared to death,” the woman said seductively.
She said that she was scared, but Zheng Ren did not see it at all.
“Take the money and get lost.” The man waved his hand and did not even look at her. He turned around and was about to go back when he saw Zheng Ren.
Their eyes met, and it was a little awkward.
It was like the moment when a child’s trick was exposed; it was awkward.
“Uh… That…” The man’s face was red.
Zheng Ren seemed to have guessed something. All the things that he did not understand before, now that he looked at it, became clear.
With a smile on his face, he looked at the burly man who looked like a child who had made a mistake and was caught by a teacher.
“I’m fine. Do you smoke?” Zheng Ren asked.
“I don’t smoke, I don’t drink. It’s a waste of my time in this world.” The man grinned.
“Let’s go. There’s an outdoor smoking area downstairs. Let’s go there,” Zheng Ren said.
The two of them went to the smoking area one after the other. Zheng Ren took out a box of Zi Yun from his pocket. The man looked at Zheng Ren in puzzlement. He felt that the 912 doctor smoking Zi Yun was even stranger than him being able to see a doctor.
