Chapter 67 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack
Lin Wei was somewhat surprised, but fortunately, even if tuberculous pleurisy was diagnosed, the doctor would still prescribe liver and kidney function tests and some liver and kidney protection drugs before prescribing medication, so the tests would eventually be able to detect it.
Chi Boyan was even more direct. Without asking any questions, he immediately opened all the prescriptions. After all, it wasn't his money. As long as it could help him with the diagnosis, he would open them.
However, this also has a drawback: it is not thorough enough and lacks professional ethics. Although the answer is basically the same as Lin Wei's, the score is still different because the process is different.
It is obvious that Lin Weide's score is slightly higher.
When the senior doctors published their scores, some students complained, "Why did I get such a low score even though I underwent liver and kidney function tests?" Regardless of the process, couldn't they still make a diagnosis in the end?
However, this is precisely the significance of their questions. "From the moment you come in, we have already started scoring. The consultation, inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation all contribute to the score. Every test we order cannot be ordered arbitrarily; there must be a reasonable justification. Otherwise, if we order a bunch of tests for every patient with a condition, not to mention how much money we spend, some radiation can be avoided, so why can't it be avoided?"
"That's not what I want to talk about today, but rather a detail. When you encounter this patient's situation, don't you all immediately think of tuberculous pleurisy? Once tuberculosis infection is detected, is that it's definitely tuberculous pleurisy?"
The students did not deny it.
Upon seeing this, the old doctor said sternly, "Now I'm telling you, this is wrong. If this patient's illness is not tuberculous pleurisy, but some other combined disease, and if he doesn't need liver and kidney function tests before taking the medication, what do you think will happen?" Without waiting for anyone else to say it, he said it directly, "It treats the symptoms but not the root cause, which may delay the treatment. Even if the pleural effusion is drained, it will reappear."
"Therefore, the focus of this competition is on the ability to diagnose illnesses in a timely manner, as well as the level of attention to detail. In clinical practice, it is better to be cautious than to be careless, which is the significance of holding this competition today."
In fact, this is just one case that has occurred in clinical practice. There have been more serious cases, but we chose a relatively mild one to talk about so as not to scare them.
Lin Wei became the typical example of someone who received praise.
The old doctor looked at her and said, "Young lady, can you tell everyone why we asked that patient if he had any discomfort in the past year?" That was a very good question.
Lin Wei looked at everyone's gaze and carefully said, "Because I'm not sure if he has an intrapleural problem. If not, he must have other symptoms. These symptoms may not be obvious, and he may not care about them, or he may feel that there is no need to talk about them, so his tone was hesitant."
Even the veteran doctors didn't see this, but they can't say she had no basis for it, because this is also a category of medicine, albeit psychology.
Psychology is very important in interpersonal communication, especially in doctor-patient relationships. If you can tell whether a patient is lying or has other problems, you can avoid a lot of trouble and save a lot of trouble.
Thinking of this, the old doctor looked at Lin Wei with a hint of appreciation. Her talent was indeed well-suited for clinical work, or even if she didn't work in clinical settings, she could do logistics. However, with her meticulousness and rigor, it would be a waste not to work in clinical settings.
As for Chi Boyan, after looking at him and thinking about his answer, he frowned. He was good at grasping knowledge and quite capable, but in the hospital, having ability without emotional intelligence would make him unsociable sooner or later. If he couldn't change his personality, the path of medicine would only be more difficult.
Chi Boyan scoffed inwardly. It was that same look again. Whether it was Professor Dou, Old Wei from before, or any of his teachers, they all looked at him with that same pity. But did he need their pity?
Chi Boyan couldn't help but look at Lin Wei. She was always likable, and even when she participated in a competition, people praised her every day.
At this moment, Lin Wei felt his gaze on her, turned her head to look at him, tilted her head, and showed a hint of confusion in her eyes. Although she didn't say anything, Chi Boyan could tell what she wanted to say. "Is there something you need?"
Chi Boyan admitted that she was very sensitive and intuitive to a person's emotions, no wonder Professor Dou and the others liked her. Perhaps he treated her a little differently, not only because of her abilities, but also for other reasons?
It seemed that in her eyes, they were all equal, so her eyes never showed any awe or scrutiny. The way she treated him as an ordinary person was indeed quite different from the people he had met since childhood.
When they walked out of the competition venue, Lin Wei looked at him, raised her chin, and said, "I won this round." There was a hint of pride in her eyes.
Chi Boyan scoffed, "It's just one win, what's there to be happy about? At most it's a draw, and besides, I wouldn't bother asking." Why ask so many questions when a simple check-up could solve the problem? It's too much trouble.
Lin Wei: "But sometimes we really have to ask, not all patients have enough money to see a doctor and have tests done. For rich people, it's naturally no problem, but for those who don't have money, a single medical visit can cost them most of their savings. We should also consider these people." Admittedly, she didn't study medicine out of passion, but since she chose this profession, she should be responsible and dedicated.
Chi Boyan looked at her carefully for a few seconds, not expecting these words to come from her mouth. He had previously thought she would agree to his proposal, but now he was somewhat uncertain.
Because he also wanted to know the answer, he didn't plan to wait until the competition ended tomorrow and asked directly, "I want to invite you to study abroad with me. I can guarantee that you will have the same resources as me. I can even lend you the money for your trip abroad, as long as you pay it back later. Do you want to come along?"
The fact that he extended this invitation to her was already a unique privilege; no one else had the right to do so.
However, Lin Wei was surprised at first when she heard this, and then she refused.
"Sorry, I don't plan to go abroad."
"Have you heard of the Talent Strengthening Program? I'm planning to participate in it. To be honest, your suggestion is a bit tempting, but I'd rather try it out and see what's so difficult about this program that has stumped so many people." She'd worked so hard for so long, she wasn't going to give up at this point.
However, Chi Boyan did not give up after hearing this. "The kind of difficulty you want can also be found abroad. In fact, you would have more freedom abroad. I thought we were more like-minded... friends." He paused when he said "friends" and added, "They should be considered friends, right?"
Lin Wei shook her head, making her decision clear. First, she didn't have a good impression of foreign countries; second, she didn't like foreign food; and third, she was frugal. She couldn't bear to incur huge debts for something with a similar chance to the Talent Development Program. Why should she spend more money if she could get a similar result with less?
However, she was still grateful for his suggestion. "Thank you. Although I don't plan to go abroad, I still appreciate your suggestion." Perhaps in his eyes, going abroad was indeed a good option for her.
Seeing this, Chi Boyan didn't say anything more, "I hope you won't regret it."
Lin Wei paused to think for a moment and said, "I think I won't regret it." Her decision was, of course, well-considered. Putting everything else aside, no one had yet passed the "Talent Strengthening Program," and she wanted to be the first.
The two eventually parted ways, but before leaving, Chi Boyan turned back to look at her and said, "I hope that when I see you again in a few years, you will still be my opponent." Ordinary people are not worthy of being his opponents.
Lin Wei raised an eyebrow. "I hope you are too." It would be interesting if she were to surpass her someday.
However, she didn't expect that he would give up the individual competition the next afternoon.
The next day, after the team competition ended, Lin Wei was stunned to see him lead his team away, agreeing to meet again in a few years to settle the score. She didn't understand whether it was necessary to do that.
There are any times when a competition can't be held, so why make it so solemn? Anyone who didn't know better would think it was a life-or-death battle.
Hearing Zheng Wenhua and the others celebrating for her, Lin Wei wasn't in a good mood. In her opinion, what was the point of letting the other side win?
Does she want the victory that he doesn't want?
So Lin Wei decided to give up. In the past two days, she had a pretty good grasp of the strength of the other contestants. There wasn't a single one who could fight. If he left, wouldn't that be letting him win? If she wanted to win, she wanted to win fair and square.
So when Zheng Wenhua heard her say she wasn't going to compete anymore, she exclaimed, "Ah! Why aren't you competing anymore?" She was just going to give up a victory that was practically in her grasp?
Lin Wei replied without turning her head, "Do I have to treat the things he doesn't want as garbage?" There was some dissatisfaction in her tone.
Zheng Wenhua and two other teammates exchanged glances after hearing this, "Isn't this too willful?" They just decided not to participate and that was it; each one of them was more willful than the last.
What they didn't want, she wanted—if only someone could give her victory in the competition. Now look what happened, she came empty-handed and she's leaving empty-handed.
Even more shocked than them were the people who participated in the afternoon's match.
At the individual competition, a group of people had already prepared themselves to be crushed by the two from University A and Sichuan University, and they knew that the prizes in this competition would not fall into their hands. However, to their surprise, neither of them showed up, and they couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Wow, how arrogant." They gave up on the awards they worked so hard for so easily. Isn't that arrogant?
If they don't even care about this competition, what competitions do they care about?
The person who finally won the game held the certificate with some excitement, but it was also very complicated. This certificate was something she would never forget.
"Lin Wei, Chi Boyan." She probably couldn't forget these two names even if she wanted to. There's something true: winning when someone else let you win just doesn't feel right.
The news of this also reached the ears of people at University A. As for how it spread, it was, of course, through Zheng Wenhua and her friends. They recounted the story vividly, even describing Lin Wei's tone of voice with great detail.
Unlike others who didn't believe it when they heard it, Fang Yihuai wasn't surprised at all.
Isn't this her personality all along? It's just that she's not pretending anymore.
