Rebirth 10: This Medical Madman is Unreasonable

Chapter 26 Awkward!

The two had finished eating clam rice noodles and it was already 7:10 p.m.

The night sky was studded with stars, and the hot wind was blowing, but it was no longer unbearably hot.

Su Xiheng's hair was gently swayed in the air as it was brushed.

Su Xiheng held Chen Zhuoan's hand as they walked back to their dormitory: "An'an... why do you seem a little distracted?"

Chen Zhuoan's eyelids flickered, and he told a little lie: "Well, I was thinking about your teacher."

"I think her behavior is a bit strange."

In fact, Chen Zhuoan wasn't thinking about Su Xiheng's mentor, but rather searching his memories of a patient from his previous life who would die in the emergency room around 8 PM.

In fact, Chen Zhuoan wasn't lying; he genuinely felt that Su Xiheng's mentor's behavior was a bit strange.

Su Xiheng pouted her upper lip, revealing a small portion of her gums, and said in a sweet voice, "The teacher spoke to me privately today."

"She said that as long as I can win first prize in the postgraduate skills competition on behalf of the school, I have a good chance of being directly transferred to the eight-year program."

Chen Zhuoan suddenly stopped: "Your teacher only talked to you about this, nothing else?"

Su Xiheng shook her head: "I didn't say anything else, I just talked about this good news."

What do you suspect?

Chen Zhuoan shook his head: "I'm afraid your teacher will kick you out of your current research direction."

"Perhaps I'm wrong."

In Chen Zhuoan's view, the research topic he gave Su Xiheng was enough for Su Xiheng to switch to the eight-year system.

Winning extra competitions is merely icing on the cake.

Being a doctor is a lifelong career. If you do well in your studies, you can climb higher in the future and bring healing to more patients.

"I don't think so..." Su Xiheng seemed a little nervous.

She was also someone who spent a long time in the lab, and the situation Chen Zhuoan described often happened.

"It's alright. Even if something like this happens, your husband has a way to handle it." Chen Zhuoan reached out his hand.

He gently brushed away the wrinkles on Su Xiheng's forehead caused by worry.

In his previous life, after Su Xiheng passed away, Chen Zhuoan experienced a period of rather extreme "thinking"!

Although Su Xiheng has to take care of baby Chichi, her annual physical examination results show that she is in good health.

I work during the day and go to the bone tumor department at night, and nothing bad has happened.

Su Xiheng had specifically asked for leave, so why did she suddenly "die"?

Could it be that her teacher is exploiting her in a roundabout way?

Chen Zhuoan had only thought about the matter, but had not considered it in detail.

Generally speaking, Professor Yao, Su Xiheng's mentor, is also a very good person.

Even if Su Xiheng was taking care of her daughter, it was only natural that she would assign Su Xiheng other tasks.

Professor Yao is a teacher, and as the group leader, she certainly cannot fully empathize with all the hardships and joys of her students and subordinates.

If something truly extreme happens, it's impossible for one's parents to completely miss the signs.

It was Su Xiheng's own physical condition that was worn down; she can't blame anyone else.

"I don't think it's that bad," Su Xiheng shook her head.

"An'an... don't think so much about me. You've already protected me very well."

"You should also think about your own affairs."

"I heard," Su Xiheng said seriously after stopping.

"These days, it's all very common for students in your eight-year program to apply for overseas study visas. Why didn't you submit an application?"

While Chen Zhuoan was paying attention to Su Xiheng, Su Xiheng was also paying attention to Chen Zhuoan's every move.

Chen Zhuoan replied definitively: "I don't want to go abroad; there's no need for it."

Su Xiheng gripped Chen Zhuoan's hand tightly: "Are you afraid we'll break up?"

"No... I just don't want to, there's no need."

Chen Zhuoan then explained, "Going abroad is the same as going to the lab to do research, and staying abroad is also the same as doing research."

"Do you think you could accomplish the same research projects as us if you went abroad?"

In their previous life, after Chen Zhuoan graduated, Su Xiheng continued to pursue her doctorate, and the two were in a long-distance relationship for a long time.

After starting her formal career, she became a surgeon. Su Xiheng is also pursuing a doctorate.

Chen Zhuoan and Su Xiheng's long-distance relationship can be described as a cross-border romance!

"That's probably impossible..."

"That settles it."

Chen Zhuoan puffed out his chest: "I came to the group with a research project. If I go abroad, it will only benefit foreigners."

"I love my country very much."

Su Xiheng yeyeyeed a few times: "Show-off!"

……

After Chen Zhuoan escorted Su Xiheng to her dormitory, they gave each other a routine farewell. The two then made another appointment to have a video chat together before Chen Zhuoan turned around and went to the emergency room.

It was only 7:55.

Chen Zhuoan once again searched through all his memories.

He still didn't know the young man's identity or the specific mechanism by which he was injured.

All he knew was that he was injured and eventually died!

His girlfriend jumped into the Xiangjiang River after midnight.

When a person dies, their spirit vanishes... all illusions dissipate, and even if their love is celebrated, it cannot keep them inseparable...

The emergency department he worked in for 10 years was completely different from the emergency department of Xiangya Hospital in later years, but it happened to hit the spot that Chen Zhuoan was most familiar with.

The reappearance of old things always gives people a unique sense of peace.

The emergency department at Xiangya Hospital is divided into zones for resuscitation, and the emergency department doctors' teams are also divided into groups and zones.

This arrangement will make it easier for patients to receive timely and precise treatment from the medical team.

"Chen Zhuoan? What are you doing here today?"

Chen Zhuoan had only taken a few steps when he heard someone calling his name.

Chen Zhuoan quickly turned his head and saw Qin Huai standing in front of the surgical clinic, holding two X-ray films in his hands, with the film in his left hand pressed down to reveal his left cheek.

Qin Huai is the chief resident, so he's a frequent visitor to the emergency department.

Chen Zhuoan quickly moved over: "Teacher Qin... I came here specifically to see you."

Qin Huai continued to hold the film, his voice calm yet sarcastic:

"The advanced research project in internal medicine is finally finished. I remembered you're also an orthopedic surgeon?"

It is undeniable that most surgical topics are not explored as deeply as those in internal medicine.

After all, surgeons spend a lot of time on practice and surgical training.

Therefore, the workload for publishing papers in internal medicine is generally much greater than that for publishing papers in surgery.

Chen Zhuoan calmly replied, "Teacher Qin, you didn't call me first, so I just chose to come to the emergency room and bump into people."

Currently, in terms of status, Qin Huai is the chief resident.

When faced with an emergency, he can choose whoever he wants.

However, Qin Huai did not actively seek out Chen Zhuoan.

Qin Huai's eyelids flickered, but he chose to remain silent and turned to the patient, saying, "Your fracture has been reduced, and it looks pretty good."

"Go back and rest well."

"The cast cannot be removed. Be careful not to injure it again. Come to the orthopedic clinic for regular check-ups, okay?"

The patient said, "Dr. Qin, it's so hard to get an appointment with your orthopedics department. Could I come to the emergency room for a follow-up appointment?"

Qin Huai resolutely refused: "That won't do."

"If you come to the ER for a follow-up appointment, what about the other ER patients with fractures or injuries?"

"It's hard to get an appointment at our hospital, so you can try getting an appointment at another hospital for a follow-up checkup."

"They are all professionals."

"Now, you can go back and get some rest. Just remember to take some anti-inflammatory and swelling-reducing medication regularly."

Qin Huai handed the film over.

The patient and their family thanked them helplessly, then turned and left.

Qin Huai finally looked at Chen Zhuoan and said apologetically, "Little Chen, do you know why I didn't look for you?"

"I'm mainly afraid of feeling awkward."

A surgeon may pretend to be skilled, but his knowledge, theoretical framework, confidence derived from his understanding, and his demeanor are all genuine.

Chen Zhuoan looked into Qin Huai's eyes: "Teacher Qin...that's why I came to find you."

"Theory also needs to be applied in reality."

As the two were talking, a stretcher was rapidly pushed in from outside the emergency room, its wheels creaking on the non-slip floor.

"Major bleeding."

"Make way!" shouted the medical staff pushing and dropping off the stretchers.

"Major bleeding."

"Send him to the emergency ward..."

Upon seeing this, Qin Huai instinctively grabbed Chen Zhuoan's hand, put on a mask, and rushed over.
