Chapter 72: Old Friends Meet the Male Lead



Chapter 72: Old Friends Meet the Male Lead

The short two days that Chen Yin was away felt like a year to Liu Mengxi and Qi Wenzhong.

But for Chen Yin herself, there are many things to do every day and time passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third day since arriving in Guangzhou.

When Li Chunli heard that Chen Yin was about to leave, she knew she couldn't stop her, so she unconsciously slowed down the pace of helping her pack the luggage.

Even when he was going to the hospital with Chen Yin, he was a little absent-minded and often lost in thought.

She glanced at her son, who was clearly exhausted after taking care of her granddaughter all night, and made up her mind. She shouted:

"Xiangnan, come out with me. I have something I want to tell you."

"Mom." Although Xiangnan didn't understand, he still stood up and followed his mother to the secluded corner of the corridor outside.

In the ward, Guo Qiaoyue smiled sheepishly, "Yinyin, I'll have to trouble you to take another look at Zhenzhen."

When Chen Yin saw him lying on the hospital bed and jumping around, a gentle smile appeared on her face involuntarily.

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome."

Then, she sat down on the stool next to the bed and said, "Zhenzhen, let me touch your little hand."

Zhenzhen looked at her mother with her big round eyes, and when she got a nod in response, she turned around and stretched out her hand for Chen Yin to feel her pulse.

The pulse is steady and strong, and it is obvious that he has recovered.

Chen Yin released her hand, smiled and nodded at Guo Qiaoyue, "Sister-in-law, Zhenzhen's measles has healed."

"That's good, that's good."

Hearing this, Guo Qiaoyue's tense heart finally relaxed.

Looking down at her daughter's face, which was obviously thinner than before she got sick, her heart tightened and she couldn't help asking:

"Yinyin, for someone like Zhenzhen who's just recovered from a serious illness, shouldn't she take some nourishing herbal remedies? Chinese medicine seems to be particularly good at this."

Chen Yin understood what Guo Qiaoyue meant, but for a doctor, if the patient is not sick, he or she generally would not support taking medicine. After all, all medicine is toxic.

She glanced at the cute and well-behaved Zhenzhen and said, "Sister-in-law, Zhenzhen is well-nourished and doesn't need any tonic medicine. Pay more attention to your diet and balance meat and vegetables. Food supplements are worse than medicine."

"I'll listen to you." Guo Qiaoyue's eyes lit up and she nodded heavily.

Obviously, for her, it is much easier to get her daughter to eat better than to coax her to take medicine.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Huaiyou and Wen Su pushed the door open and walked in.

Liang Huaiyou boasted that he had become familiar with Chen Yin in the past two days. He entered the ward with a smile and first looked at the little girl on the bed with concern.

"You look much better. Doctor Chen's medicine is effective."

"In the past two days, our department has conducted blood tests on young patients, and the measles antibodies in their bodies have gradually decreased and returned to normal levels."

Wen Su secretly complained that Liang Huaiyu was talking nonsense.

He met Guo Qiaoyue's grateful eyes with a warm face, nodded, and then turned his gaze to Chen Yin.

"Doctor Chen, our Director Ren asked you to help treat our department's patients. We have applied for the relevant fees for you according to the department's procedures for flying knife. Please keep them."

As he spoke, Wen Su took out an envelope from his pocket. It looked bulging and the amount inside must be quite large.

Chen Yin immediately raised her hand to refuse, "I'm a doctor invited by Zhenzhen's grandmother. I have nothing to do with the hospital. I can't accept him."

Guo Qiaoyue never expected that her husband and mother-in-law would leave at such an important moment. Faced with Director Wen's sincere words, she was almost speechless.

Therefore, when she heard Chen Yin's objection, she almost echoed it excitedly.

"Director Wen, you're so polite. I've made inquiries and found out that in cases like Yinyin's, it's us, the family, who should bear the cost. Whether it's Feidao or Yinyin, we personally hired them, so the relevant expenses should be paid by us, the patient."

"How can that be? If it weren't for Doctor Chen, how could our hospital have any serious measles patients?"

What Wen Su meant was that he hoped this successful case could belong to their hospital.

This was not only his own opinion, but also the opinion of the hospital's higher-ups.

They also hope to use this successful experience to enable the hospital to imitate it when encountering similar situations in the future, turning a one-time cure into a 100% cure, thereby expanding the hospital's reputation and influence around the world.

Wen Su looked at Chen Yin with dissatisfaction, and pretended to stuff the envelope directly into Chen Yin's hand.

Seeing such a forced sale, not only Chen Yin but also Liang Huaiyou who was visiting with him was shocked.

But soon, he looked at Wen Su's old face and seemed to understand the other party's purpose.

"snort!"

He immediately snorted coldly, full of contempt for Wen Su and the others' attempt to steal the credit.

Whether Chen Yin was treating severe measles patients or using silver needles to stop bleeding for the mother of Director Wen of the Health Department, she used their traditional Chinese medicine methods and practiced pure traditional Chinese medicine.

What does the two have to do with those Western medicine practitioners who have always looked down upon them? Now they want to use the temptation of money to get ahead of them.

Seeing this, Liang Huaiyou immediately stepped forward and used his body to push away Wen Su, who couldn't understand his expression.

"Director Wen, since the patient's family and Dr. Chen disagree, please don't be stubborn. I have an important task entrusted to me by our department heads, Director Lu and Director Yang Donghong. They've asked me to obtain Dr. Chen's approval."

Wen Su was so angry that the one who was ruining his plans was actually his own family member that his face turned purple.

The subtle atmosphere of confrontation between the two of them left Guo Qiaoyue stunned.

She subconsciously looked in Chen Yin's direction, wanting to know what she was thinking.

Chen Yin saw the excitement in Liang Huaiyou's eyes and nodded slightly, "You go first."

Then, Liang Huaiyou emotionally described their department's vision for the future.

"Whether it's Traditional Chinese Medicine treating severe measles or using silver needles to stop bleeding, these are miraculous treatments that have captured global attention. If you, Doctor Chen, are willing to use this to promote Traditional Chinese Medicine, you could professionally analyze and describe the two cases mentioned above, write a paper, and have it published in a professional journal."

"Also, after we separated yesterday, Director Lu and Director Yang still can't forget your superb medical skills, Doctor Chen. Since you're reluctant to come to our hospital, I wonder if your hospital is willing to cooperate with ours?"

Chen Yin had indeed never thought about the thesis. She was busy with her daily affairs and had no time to think about it.

In her opinion, the reason why Chinese medicine has become Chinese medicine is because it grew up in the domestic soil.

Although relevant research has begun to emerge internationally in recent years, it is ultimately not very consistent.

As for the final collaboration, Chen Yin was a little curious, "Director Liang, I wonder what exactly it is?"

"Our clinic is just a small one in the small town of Dongyu City. We don't have any modern equipment. Cooperation? You really overestimate it."

"'A mountain's not its height, but its immortals are its spirit.' Doctor Chen, you are truly too modest."

Liang Huaiyou looked at Chen Yin with disapproval and told her what the department had initially discussed with the Medical Education Department.

"Our department would like to cooperate with your clinic, Doctor Chen, on further training. Is that possible?"

"Further study!"

This cry of surprise came from Wen Su. He didn't expect that the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine would be willing to spend so much money that he wanted to move from Guangzhou to a small place for further studies.

Although Chen Yin’s medical skills are indeed very advanced, after seeing the prosperous metropolis, who would be willing to grow up in a small place?

Moreover, their hospitals are generally teaching points for further training. Even if doctors in the hospital want to further their studies, they go to more advanced and prosperous places such as the capital, Shanghai or abroad.

Now, for the sake of one doctor, we have to send all the doctors in the department to study abroad?

What's more, even if the people in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine continue to act like this, the hospital will not think of dismissing them. Why should they ask for trouble?

It's not as good as their pediatrics department, which directly binds people with benefits, which is much more suitable than any further study.

Chen Yin was also very surprised by this. After all, her clinic was very small.

Currently, we have only two practicing doctors and one intern. If a few more trainee doctors come, the clinic may not be able to accommodate them.

In other words, the clinic is planning to rebuild, otherwise she wouldn't dare to let it go.

"If you agree, Director Liang, we have no objection. It's just that our clinic is very simple and probably not suitable for further study."

"Oh! Doctor Chen, please don't be so modest. It is an honor for our entire department to be able to learn from a medical expert like you."

Liang Huaiyou didn't expect Chen Yin to agree so easily, and he smiled so hard that his eyes were invisible.

The purpose of his trip was achieved, and he immediately pulled Wen Su away with a smile.

As he took the last step out of the ward, he turned around and reminded again, "Doctor Chen, I'm going to report this good news to Director Lu and Director Yang right away. We'll discuss the specific details of the training later."

"Okay." Chen Yin nodded.

Liang Huaiyou left in a hurry with the good news, and Li Chunli and Xiangnan, mother and son, who had discussed things, appeared in the ward immediately.

Guo Qiaoyue immediately stepped forward and told the two that Wen Su wanted to pay for the flying knife treatment, and prepared to discuss the medical fees in a low voice.

In her opinion, Chen Yin came all the way here and didn't even know what disease her daughter had, but was willing to put everything aside and accompany her mother-in-law to Guangzhou. No amount of money could express their gratitude for this kindness.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she opened her mouth, her lover told her what he had just discussed with his mother.

"Mom just told me that she's going to live with us in Guangzhou from now on. We'll give the shop to Yinyin as a thank you gift for curing Zhenzhen."

When Guo Qiaoyue heard this, she was completely shocked.

She stared at her mother-in-law in disbelief, unable to believe that she had made such a great sacrifice for their family of three.

The shop in the small town is not worth much, but its importance to my mother-in-law is self-evident.

The couple had urged her many times before, but her mother-in-law was unwilling to give up the shop and come to Guangzhou to live with them.

Now he is willing to give up for Zhenzhen's illness.

"Mom..." Guo Qiaoyue was so moved that her eyes filled with tears and her voice choked uncontrollably.

Li Chunli understood what her daughter-in-law was thinking about. She smiled with a relaxed expression, pulled up her daughter-in-law's hands, and gently patted the back of her hands to comfort her.

Xiangnan stood closest to Chen Yin, glanced gently in his daughter's direction, and then spoke.

"Yinyin, you came all the way from Tongxi. Our whole family would like to express our sincere gratitude to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them bowed deeply in Chen Yin's direction.

Chen Yin was at a loss for a moment. She didn't know whether she should help up Brother Xiangnan, who was closest to her, or her elder Aunt Chunli.

"There's no need to be so polite between our two families."

"Aunt Chunli, Brother Xiangnan, and sister-in-law, get up quickly, get up quickly!"

Xiangnan stood up quickly and told his mother the decision he had discussed with her.

"Yinyin, no matter how close we are, we still can't neglect the due thank you gift. After seeing how thin Zhenzhen has become, my mother decided to live with me in Guangzhou from now on and help take care of Zhenzhen."

"That's great, your family can be reunited."

"So, my mom's shop and home have been left unattended for too long, and it's not good to leave them alone. So, Mom and I discussed it and decided to transfer the use rights of the shop and the old house behind to you. I hope you can use more land to build a bigger hospital and help more patients."

Chen Yin looked in Li Chunli's direction in surprise, not understanding why she suddenly had such an idea.

"Aunt Chunli, even if you're not in Tongxi, my mom and I will help you look after the house. There's really no need to transfer the right of use. You still have to keep some memories of your hometown."

"Yinyin, I've heard that the clinic is planning to buy a nearby shop and expand and rebuild. I was originally stubbornly insisting on staying in my hometown, but now seeing how Zhenzhen and your brother Xiangnan are doing, I think it would be better for me to come to Guangzhou as soon as possible."

"Buy a shop and expand it?"

As the person involved, Chen Yin immediately questioned how she didn't know about this.

Li Chunli glanced at Chen Yin and saw that her eyes did not seem fake, so she quickly told her about the purchase of the breakfast shop next to the clinic.

The other party seemed to know that she had a close relationship with Chen Yin's family. Before they had time to come to discuss the matter, she hurried to Guangzhou because of Zhenzhen's matter.

Only then did Chen Yin realize that Sun Mingying had secretly done such a big thing behind her back.

I immediately mistakenly thought that the other party just wanted to undertake the reconstruction project. I really thought it was too simple.

At present, it seems that the other party really wants to take on the important task of rebuilding the clinic, which makes her begin to doubt the other party's true intentions.

"I think they're also thinking about the clinic. With your current status and medical skills, Huimintang is indeed a bit small. When we rebuild it, with my shop and breakfast stall, and by digging a little more of the mountain behind, it won't be difficult to rival the county hospital."

Li Chunli is very much looking forward to the reconstruction of the clinic and can't wait to see the brand new clinic now.

Rather than using money, the family felt that using the land use rights of their home and shop would be a better way to express their gratitude.

Chen Yin couldn't refuse and agreed to Aunt Chunli's family's suggestion.

However, when signing the transfer contract, she still wrote an IOU, as if she had purchased it from Aunt Chunli's family at a price lower than the market price.

After the matter was settled, Chen Yin prepared to leave and bought a train ticket to leave Guangzhou.

Just as she walked out of the hospital gate, she ran into a car head-on. She avoided the situation and pulled over to the side.

But suddenly I found that the car slowed down and stopped right next to me.

Chen Yin looked up in confusion, and the car window slowly lowered, revealing a familiar face.

"Comrade Wen?"

"Doctor Chen!" Wen Nian's voice was clearly filled with excitement and joy. "Are you planning to go?"

"The purpose of coming to Yangcheng has been accomplished. I am going back to the clinic and buying a train ticket home."

"Leaving so soon!"

Wen Nian subconsciously stood up from his seat and tried to stop him, but his head hit the roof of the car.

The pain from the top of his head made him subconsciously frown, his nose felt sore, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

He couldn't wait to relieve the pain and anxiously stuck his head out of the car window.

"Doctor Chen, our family hasn't even thanked you enough for helping grandma. How could you leave so soon?"

"It's a doctor's job to treat patients and save lives. There's no need to thank him specifically."

"How can this be possible?"

"If there's nothing else, I'll go buy a ticket first." Chen Yin said, preparing to turn around and leave.

An idea suddenly popped up in Wen Nian's mind, and he spoke out to keep her.

"I wonder if I could ask Dr. Chen to take a look at my grandma? She had surgery yesterday and she hasn't woken up yet."

Upon hearing the patient's condition, Chen Yin immediately slowed down and turned to meet Wen Nian's sincere gaze.

"good."

Upon hearing this, Wen Nian immediately got out of the car, carrying the soup he had cooked, and took Chen Yin to the single intensive care unit where his grandmother lived.

On the way, Chen Yin smelled a fresh and fragrant scent, and her eyes kept lingering on the thermos in Wen Nian's hand.

After a while, the two arrived at the ward on the ninth floor.

At this time, there were bodyguards guarding outside the ward, which was somewhat similar to the situation when Chen Yin went to the city to see the old man of the Rong family.

Thanks to Wen Nian's guidance, the two entered the ward smoothly.

The only sounds in the ward were the cold dripping sounds of various monitoring instruments. Combined with Grandma Wen's pale face, it looked like the situation was not good.

Zhong Rui looked at Chen Yin who was brought by her son, and her dull eyes suddenly lit up.

She stood up suddenly and asked in surprise, "Doctor Chen, why are you here?"

"Mom, when I came to see grandma, I happened to meet Doctor Chen at the door, so I asked him to come and take a look at grandma."

Zhong Rui glanced at his youngest son meaningfully, the smile on his face remaining unchanged.

"We were just looking for Dr. Chen to help take a look at the old lady. We didn't expect you two to meet by chance. It's really fate, fate. Please also, Dr. Chen, take a look. The old lady has not shown any signs of waking up since she was pushed out of the operating room yesterday. Our family is very worried."

Hearing this, Chen Yin lowered her head and looked carefully at the old lady. Just as she was about to ask about what happened yesterday, she suddenly heard the sound of a door being pushed open behind her.

"Mr. Song, please take a look."

Wen Qihua's voice came from the door. Anyone who could command such respect from him must be of extraordinary status.

Except for Chen Yin, who knew nothing about the name Mr. Song, the remaining two people instantly turned their eyes towards the door.

Chen Yin turned around curiously and her eyes widened in surprise.

"Chen Yin!"

"Song Zhizi."

"Why are you here?" Song Zhizi looked at Chen Yin in surprise, her eyes subconsciously moving back and forth between Chen Yin and Wen Nian who was standing beside her.

She knew Wen Nian's identity, but how was Chen Yin connected to him?

Song Xu noticed his granddaughter's tone was very familiar, and subconsciously asked, "Gardenia, did you meet someone you know?"

Not only Song Xu was curious about the relationship between the two, but others were too.

Especially Wen Nian and Zhong Rui, who knew Chen Yin's identity, didn't understand how two young girls, one in Dongyu and the other in Yangcheng, knew each other?

Soon, Song Zhizi's answer gave the answer to several people.

"We were roommates at Xuhua University."

This answer surprised Zhong Rui. After all, Mr. Song was very famous in South China. Why would he choose to let his granddaughter study in Southwest China?

Whether staying in Yangcheng to study at university or studying directly with Mr. Song in his own clinic, both are better choices.

After hearing his granddaughter's answer, Song Xu's gaze stayed on Chen Yin for obviously longer.

But he quickly moved away and turned to Wen Qihua.

Wen Qihua didn't expect that his wife and children had found a doctor to treat their mother earlier than him, and an awkward situation arose because the two sides had not communicated in advance.

He looked at Old Song, then at Chen Yin who had saved his mother. After some hesitation, he still placed his hope on Old Song.

"Please ask Mr. Song to take a look at my mother."

Song Xu nodded, walked towards the ward, and prepared to examine Grandma Wen.

Wen Nian glared at his father disapprovingly. Chen Yin had clearly arrived first, so why should Elder Song start seeing patients first? Didn't he understand the principle of first come, first served?

This act of disrespect towards Chen Yin made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Dad, should we let Doctor Chen take a look first?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the ward instantly became stagnant.

Old Song glanced at Wen Nian in surprise, his eyes fixed on Chen Yin. He didn't expect that the Wen family had already invited a doctor, a doctor who was about the same age as his granddaughter?

Zhong Rui and Wen Qihua looked at their son with disapproval in their eyes.

Although Chen Yin was the benefactor who saved her mother, compared with Mr. Song's nationally renowned title of traditional Chinese medicine, they still valued his medical skills more.

As the person present and most familiar with Chen Yin, Song Zhizi could hardly hide her surprise.

In her impression, Chen Yin's academic performance ranking in her major was not very ideal. How come she has now become the doctor who can see patients before her grandfather, as praised by the family members?

She looked at Chen Yin with curiosity, wanting to get the answer from her.

Even she wouldn't dare to remain so calm in front of her grandfather under such circumstances.

At first, Song Xu didn't care about Chen Yin, who Wen Nian said would see patients before her, but when she met Chen Yin's calm eyes, she suddenly became interested.

Song Xu immediately took a step back and said, "Since you came first, you can see the doctor first."

In this situation, it is not Chen Yin's nature to shirk responsibility.

She nodded slightly, "In that case, I will respectfully obey your orders. If there is anything inappropriate later, please give me some advice, Elder Song."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Yin returned to the stool and examined Grandma Wen.
