Chapter 135 I'll Clean It Up!
The things Cao Nanyu sent to Qu Tian's office were enough for him to use for a long time. Time passed quickly and Zhou Qing's surgery was approaching.
Yu Ze had already checked in three days in advance and shared a bed with Zhou Qing. When Qu Tian came to check at six o'clock every day, he could always see them cuddling together. Fortunately, there was nothing unusual. Yu Ze was also careful when sleeping and never pressed on any of the wires inserted into Zhou Qing's body.
"Go, take this bottle of wine to that doctor." Cao Nanyu heard Xuanzhe say this just after he handed the document to the desk.
Knowing what Mr. Xuan meant, Cao Nanyu didn't waste any words. As a qualified assistant, he finished the little work at hand, then wrapped the bottle of wine in an exquisite black velvet package and tied a bow on it. He said confidently, "Work hard. Cure Mr. Zhou, and you won't have to worry about anything in the future."
Cao Nanyu stepped on the accelerator and soon arrived at the hospital entrance.
There wasn't much to do today, and the interns had sorted things out under his fierce firepower. Cao Nanyu's tense nerves relaxed a little, and he went upstairs humming a song, thinking about what to say to the attending physician when he saw him later.
“Dongdongdong——”
"Come in."
Hey, the voice is quite nice. Cao Nanyu scratched his ears subconsciously and pushed open the door. "Doctor Qu, right?"
The person who had just received the water turned around, and Cao Nanyu's words stopped abruptly.
"You..." Cao Nanyu choked, thinking, isn't this the person I bumped into in the safety passage before?
Qu Tian is handsome and 1.9 meters tall. Cao Nanyu has to slightly tilt his head when looking at him, so he was quite impressed. Recently, whenever the company was packaging that "tough guy" star, Cao Nanyu would occasionally substitute Qu Tian. He felt that he was careless. He should have left his contact information and brought it to Zhu Lian to see if he could be nurtured. And then, he ran into Qu Tian today.
Qu Tian drank water and his eyes fell on Cao Nanyu through the glass. He was dressed in a suit and looked like a decent man with red lips and white teeth.
"You..." Cao Nanyu started again, and finally "you" said: "Why are you in the doctor's office?"
Qu Tian found it interesting. He put the cup back on the table and asked calmly, "You've been reincarnated?"
Cao Nanyu: “”
"Hey, how can you talk like that? What do you mean by reincarnation?" Cao Nanyu, now riding the crest of the power grid, could no longer tolerate any grievances and started to speak without hesitation, "I'm telling you, this..."
Very good, he got stuck for the second time, because he watched the man opposite him put on a white coat.
Qu Tian asked him while adjusting his collar: "What is this?"
"It's like a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple, and family members don't recognize each other anymore!" Assistant Cao's PR skills are impeccable, and his expression is incredibly quick. His fake smile is gentle yet tinged with flattery. He came forward with a gift, frightening Qu Tian to the point of panic. Cao Nanyu placed the gift on the table and said, as if reciting a script, "This is what President Xuan asked me to bring you. Take your time with it. I'll take my leave now."
"Wait." Qu Tian called from behind.
Cao Nanyu hissed, not knowing why he was so nervous.
"No need for these." Qu Tian pointed to the sofa where he had placed the things Xuanzhe had given him last time. He also did not move them. "Take them back to President Xuan. I'm a doctor, and it's my duty to treat patients with all my strength. I've made all the necessary preparations for Mr. Zhou's surgery, so you won't need these."
Qu Tian is a very realistic person, but he is not greedy. He only takes what belongs to him and will not be tempted by other wealth and glory no matter how dazzling they are. He has some human flaws, but he also has the compassion of a doctor. Moreover, Xuan Zhe is too important a person, and Qu Tian instinctively wants to avoid him.
Cao Nanyu understood Qu Tian's meaning at a glance, nodded in understanding, and slightly restrained his smile: "Well, Doctor Qu, there is no reason for President Xuan to take back the things he has given away. If you don't like it, you can just throw it into the water and listen to the sound. Don't worry, President Xuan is not using these things to put pressure on you. President Xuan and Mr. Zhou are friends, and he is just expressing his gratitude." After saying that, he bowed lightly, and without caring what Qu Tian said, he slipped away.
Cao Nanyu lowered his attitude. If Qu Tian continued to chatter with him, it would seem that he was not generous enough. He put the things in the cabinet and had no intention of touching them.
Zhou Qing's surgery was scheduled for 7 p.m., which was the time when Qu Tian was most focused.
"You'll be fine after a good night's sleep." Zhou Qing heard Qu Tian say this before he lost consciousness. The man's voice was deep and slow, as if he was sure he would be safe.
"Okay, stop turning." Tang Weisheng leaned against the wall, seeing Yu Ze sweating on his forehead due to anxiety, he couldn't help but speak.
"You care about others transferring." Wen Shuang whispered, "If it was Tan Li who went in, would you still be able to remain calm?"
Tan Li frowned and said, "You're cursing me."
Xuanzhe couldn't come yet, so he asked Wen Shuang to contact him if she had any questions.
Zhou Qing has few relatives, and Yu Ze hopes that if he comes out of the operating room conscious, he can hear the voices of his loved ones and friends, congratulating him on a successful operation.
From seven to twelve, as the calendar turned a page, Yu Ze stood there, and Wen Shuang felt that his soul had floated inside.
At half past twelve, Xuanzhe and Cao Nanyu came in. Assistant Cao's hands were full of bags. Xuanzhe said, "We haven't had dinner yet, so let's make do with this for now."
"You guys go." Yu Ze's voice was a little hoarse: "I have no appetite, just wait."
Knowing that they couldn't persuade him at the moment, everyone went to the ward downstairs to get a midnight snack. Wen Shuang was really hungry. The bowl of wontons he had eaten before coming here seemed to be digested in two breaths. Wen Shuang stuffed himself with relish the seafood noodles Xuanzhe bought for him. He was not afraid because the system analysis showed that the probability of Zhou Qing getting out safely was 92%. He didn't believe that Zhou Qing, who had lived an honest life, would fall into the remaining 8%.
Tang Weisheng was all talk and no action, as if he didn't know how to eat even when Tan Li was trying to coax him. He said he was hungry earlier, but ended up eating only half a bowl of rice. Tan Li was helpless, and then saw Xuanzhe throwing a chicken leg to him without saying a word. The brotherly aura dissipated, and Tang Weisheng was silent for a moment, then picked up the chicken and ate it.
"The rest is for doctors and nurses," Wen Shuang asked.
Cao Nanyu said quickly, "Yes, I've already bought everything, so I just want to buy everything."
Everyone went upstairs after finishing their meal. At two o'clock in the morning, the red light in the operating room went out and the door finally opened.
Yu Ze was the first to rush forward, "How is it?"
"The operation was successful." Qu Tian's voice sounded a little tired. He held the wall with one hand and patiently answered Yu Ze: "Keep him in the intensive care unit for observation tonight. If everything is fine, he will be transferred to the previous ward. I have to remind Mr. Yu to remember not to get infection, pressure, or impact on his eyes. They are very fragile right now."
Yu Ze heaved a sigh of relief, looking even more tired than Qu Tian: "Thank you."
Everyone dispersed with Zhou Qing's cart. Qu Tian stopped and watched for a few seconds with a deep expression. Then he dragged his stiff legs and struggled back to the office. As soon as he fell into the sofa, he didn't want to move. Fatigue and sleepiness surged over him. After saving another person, Qu Tian's mood brightened unconsciously, and an unspeakable void in his heart was filled.
Someone once told him for ten years that he was a useless person, but Qu Tian was steady and accurate in his actions and had mastered good medical skills. No one could deny him.
"Click——" The office door was gently pushed open, and Qu Tian was nervous: "Who?"
"It's me." Cao Nanyu was standing at the door, not coming in. He lowered his voice and said, "I brought some hot food for Dr. Qu. Do you want to eat?"
Compared to cigarettes, alcohol and tea, this is a good thing that can help people in time.
As soon as he said that, Qu Tian suddenly felt extremely hungry. He sat up and reached out to turn on the light in the room: "Come in."
Cao Nanyu was carrying two food bags, one full bowl of rice and five dishes including meat and vegetables. He placed them one by one and handed the chopsticks to Qu Tian. Qu Tian said "thank you" but did not move for a long time after taking it.
Cao Nanyu saw Qu Tian pinch the acupuncture point inward of his right thumb with his left hand, and his whole hand was shaking slightly. This was a symptom of holding the scalpel for a long time. Cao Nanyu seemed to remember at this moment that Qu Tian had been in there for seven hours.
Cao Nanyu works at Quanyi, where he lives in a world of fame and fortune and faces the most filthy and complicated circles. He can remain calm while watching a certain boss being surrounded by women, and when he feels like it, he can even perform a live action movie with all kinds of monsters and demons running rampant. It's no big deal. However, at this moment, in the dead of night, looking at Qu Tian's hands that couldn't stop shaking due to a long operation, he felt sour for a moment, and he couldn't describe the feeling.
"Doctor, is eye surgery particularly difficult?" Cao Nanyu suddenly asked.
“People can live without their voice, hearing, or sense of taste. If they work hard, they are almost no different from normal people. But if they lose their eyes, it will be different.” Qu Tian poured the braised pork broth on the rice. “The world is too big. If you can’t see, you will lose the courage to move forward. So this kind of surgery is not only difficult.” The patient’s future is also entrusted to him.
Cao Nanyu agreed with this and thought that he would never be able to lie down and look at his phone again, so he would put on a hot compress eye mask when he got home at night.
Qu Tian ate very quietly, or perhaps because he didn't have much energy, so he wasn't very elegant, completely different from Xuanzhe who was raised in a family, but still looked good. He ate everything cleanly without wasting anything, then stacked the paper boxes one by one and threw them into the trash can.
Cao Nanyu blinked: "Aren't you full?"
"I can hold it." Qu Tianyun said calmly, "But I can't waste it."
"Boom——" Assistant Cao's outlook on life was challenged again.
He was quite frugal when he first started working, but as his salary has been getting higher and higher, he doesn't even pack his food now. For some reason, Assistant Cao suddenly felt a little ashamed of himself.
"Doctor Qu will be off tomorrow," Cao Nanyu asked, wanting to put an end to this conversation.
"Don't rest, go to the Xingxing Welfare Home."
Cao Nanyu: “Ah…ah”
Qu Tian glanced at him and said, "I'm applying to be a volunteer there."
Assistant Cao almost fled in panic.
This kind of depressed mood that was difficult to express publicly plagued him for several days. He felt as if all these years had been lived in vain, and had the illusion of being scolded by someone.
Xuanzhe was the first to notice that something was wrong with Cao Nanyu. When he came to deliver the documents, he asked in a deep voice, "Why are you unhappy?"
"No..." Cao Nanyu was still willing to talk to Xuanzhe for a few more words from the heart, "I just feel that I... am not a good person sometimes." After chasing fame and fortune for so many years, he used all kinds of tricks and was almost out of his conscience.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Zhe stood up and said, "Let's go, let's see which new guy is so powerful that can make you doubt your life. I'll take care of it!"
Assistant Cao: “…”
