Thinking deeply is like being caught doing something wrong, frozen in place, afraid to move.
"I...I was just applying some medicated oil to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis for him." Chen Sisi sighed softly. Since she had been caught, she might as well just admit it.
The white-haired old doctor, Yang Hongzhi, Gu Chengfeng's attending physician, almost choked to death when he saw this scene.
"What are you giving him? If it worsens his condition, I'd like to see how you take responsibility!" Yang Hongzhi has been a doctor for decades and has seen many such self-righteous family members who do things haphazardly behind the scenes, causing the patients' conditions to worsen.
"No, wash that stuff off his head right now, quick!" Yang Hongzhi shouted to the head nurse beside him. Just as several nurses were about to step forward, Chen Sisi spread her arms and blocked Gu Chengfeng.
"Doctor, please trust me this once. My medicated oil isn't some random stuff; it really works. And I was very careful when I applied it, so I didn't get it on his wound. Give me some time, and I'll definitely prove it!"
"Proof?" Yang Hongzhi was so angry that his beard bristled. "You're using my patient's life as proof? What are you up to?"
Shen Sisi immediately burst into tears: "He is your patient, but he is also my lover, my husband. Don't I want him to wake up even more than you do?"
Yang Hongzhi waved his hand dismissively: "I'm not listening to your excuses. Get out of my way right now, or can you take responsibility if something happens?"
"Yes!" Shen Sisi roared in a powerful voice, "If Gu Chengfeng's condition has worsened because of the medicated oil, I, Shen Sisi, am willing to take full responsibility. Even if you arrest me and put me in jail, I will have no complaints."
"She's completely stubborn and won't listen to reason!" Yang Hongzhi gestured with his eyes, signaling several nurses to pull Chen Sisi away. Just as they were getting closer, a booming voice came from outside the door.
"Let's see who dares to touch her!"
Feng Yanzhou helped Fei Liming hurry over.
Feng Yanzhou had rested for a night and was about to stay with Gu Chengfeng when he ran into Old Fei downstairs.
Fei Liming heard the commotion upstairs and hurriedly came out of his office.
The two of them happened to bump into each other.
Fei Liming walked into the room, panting, and glared at Yang Hongzhi: "Old Yang, what kind of behavior is this, pulling and tugging like this?"
Yang Hongzhi glared at him: "Old Fei, you're not trying to meddle in other people's business, are you?"
"My own nephew, what do you mean by meddling in other people's business?"
"Your nephew is also my patient. I won't let them do whatever they want!" Yang Hongzhi insisted that Shen Sisi leave as soon as possible.
Fei Liming pulled him aside: "Old Yang, we're both doctors, so of course I understand your concerns. But I can guarantee that the medicated oil is fine; it really does have the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."
Yang Hongzhi glanced at the bottle in Chen Sisi's hand: "Old Fei, we've all been doctors for decades, how can you still believe in this folk remedy?"
Fei Liming sighed softly: "Although Western medicine is advanced, the traditional Chinese medicine concepts of our ancestors cannot be proven to be backward or destined to be eliminated. Some things that Western medicine cannot cure are just minor problems in the eyes of traditional Chinese medicine."
Yang Hongzhi was furious with him, his eyes scrutinizing him repeatedly as if he were seeing this colleague for the first time: "Old Fei, back when the crackdown was in full swing, we should have locked you up in the cowshed and reformed your unacceptable thinking."
Fei Liming smiled slyly: "Too bad, you won't have that chance..."
No matter how much he pleaded, Yang Hongzhi insisted on wiping the medicated oil off Gu Chengfeng's head: "Let me tell you, I am the patient's attending physician. No matter who comes today, it won't make a difference. After all, when something happens to this patient, you all just stand there talking without any sense of responsibility, but I have to take real responsibility."
He told the nurses to hurry up and not delay. Just then, the head nurse suddenly exclaimed, "Dr. Yang, look, his finger is moving!"
Perhaps it was because the noise in the ward was too loud, or perhaps he sensed that Chen Sisi was about to be bullied, Gu Chengfeng's fingers twitched slightly five or six times.
Chen Si looked in the direction of the sound and, sure enough, saw the reaction of his fingers.
"It moved! It really moved!" Shen Sisi cried tears of joy, wanting to reach out and grasp the hand, but dared not get any closer.
Feng Yanzhou was also extremely excited, and his eyes immediately reddened: "Old Gu, Old Gu, you can hear us, right?"
Gu Chengfeng paused for a moment, then laboriously raised his right index finger.
His eyes remained tightly closed, his eyelashes swaying gently with his breathing, showing no signs of waking up, but his body's reactions did not lie.
Seeing this, Feng Yanzhou's eyes darted around, and he shouted loudly, "It must be your medicated oil that caused his reaction."
Shen Sisi took over the conversation knowingly, pleading, "That's right, so... Dr. Yang, please give me a little more time. I believe Gu Chengfeng will definitely wake up!"
She practically knelt down, putting Yang Hongzhi in a very difficult position.
As the attending physician, he was pleased to see the patient's condition improve, but he was also worried about the patient's family making their own decisions, which violated hospital regulations.
Shen Sisi didn't care about any rules or regulations at the moment; she just wanted Gu Chengfeng to wake up as soon as possible.
"How about this!" The head nurse stepped forward when she saw everyone's dilemma: "This patient has a head injury and a blood clot in his brain. To be on the safe side, we can't rinse him with water. It can't be too cold or too hot. If the patient gets burned or gets chilled, none of us can bear the responsibility."
"So what..." Yang Hongzhi asked angrily.
"So, we can only put a piece of gauze on his head to absorb the oil. We'll absorb as much as we can. Is that alright?"
That's why they're able to become head nurses.
A mind is about being flexible and adaptable.
They followed the work rules and came up with corresponding solutions to handle the situation. If anything goes wrong afterward, it has nothing to do with them.
They've already dealt with it; it was all caused by the patient's family's medicated oil.
Yang Hongzhi's eyes brightened considerably: "Okay, we'll do it your way! However, we still need to keep a close eye on it, and if there are any adverse reactions, we'll immediately move it into the operating room."
"OK!"
The head nurse personally used tweezers to place several thin gauze pads on Gu Chengfeng's head.
Then, he spoke to Chen Sisi alone, saying, "Comrade, you must take good care of the patients during this period. If anything happens, just call us, understand?"
With tears welling up in her eyes, Chen Sisi nodded and said, "Thank you!"
She never expected that the head nurse would come to her rescue.
Then, she gently pulled off the gauze to let Gu Chengfeng's wound breathe. Seeing that the medicated oil had seeped into his scalp, she finally came to her senses and thanked Fei Liming: "Thank you, Professor Fei. I will never forget your great kindness."
