Chapter 159 Rose
At 7:30 in the morning, Zhou Cheng arrived at the office of the second general surgery doctor on time.
Yesterday, almost everyone in the department saw Zhou Cheng’s circle of friends. Everyone thought he was on vacation again, but unexpectedly, they saw him in the department early this morning with a serious and cold expression.
During the morning handover, Li Yu announced the work adjustments in the department. Zhou Cheng and Yang Luning started to lead their teams respectively and no longer participated in the front-line shifts. Zhou Cheng also took care of the department's teaching tasks.
After the shift was over, Li Yu went to the outpatient clinic, and Zhou Cheng started the ward rounds.
"Zhou Cheng, look at you now, you are successful in both love and career, you are a winner in life." Yang Luning hung the stethoscope around his neck and walked at the front of the team with Zhou Cheng.
"Yeah, it's okay." Zhou Cheng didn't want to talk about this during working hours, so he separated from Yang Luning at the corner of the corridor.
The doctors in Zhou Cheng's group followed behind with trepidation in their hearts. They knew Zhou Cheng's temper and personality very well, and they didn't know how he would be scolded in a moment.
Zhou Cheng and Su Qingyan are very similar when working. Neither of them is always strict. They treat everyone equally and clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments.
After finishing his rounds and dealing with the patients with unclear diagnoses and difficult cases, Zhou Cheng went to the operating room. When he passed by Li Yu's special operating room, he looked at the Da Vinci robot inside with envy.
"Doctor Zhou, are you back from the laboratory? We have missed you so much during this period." The circulating nurse said affectionately after seeing Zhou Cheng.
It wasn't that she was flattering him insincerely. The nurses in the operating room had already divided these surgeons into different levels in their minds. They could see who had good skills and who had poor skills, and Zhou Cheng was firmly in the first tier.
Zhou Cheng nodded, said nothing, and walked straight into the operating room.
After Li Yu returned to the department in the afternoon, he watched Zhou Cheng and Yang Luning manage the department in an orderly manner on their first day in office, and nodded with satisfaction.
As the day drew to a close, Zhou Cheng finally finished his day's surgeries and returned to the department to check on the more seriously ill patients. As he opened the medical records in his office to write down the course of events, he discovered that the attending physician's senior physician's ward rounds for the day hadn't yet been written.
Zhou Cheng took a deep breath and tried hard to control his emotions. After typing on the computer for a while, he called the attending physician over.
The attending physician lowered his head after hearing what Zhou Cheng said. It was not that he did not intend to write the ward rounds, but after the morning rounds, Director Li admitted a lot of new patients before he had finished dealing with the original patients. He had no free time to write the ward rounds.
Now what Zhou Cheng said was like adding insult to injury.
"For patients with serious conditions, the medical records must be completed in a timely manner. This is to protect yourself." Zhou Cheng didn't say much and let the attending physician get busy.
The attending physician returned to his seat, sighed, and resigned himself to opening the medical record. Just as he was about to add to the record, he found that Zhou Cheng had already finished it for him. His nose suddenly felt sore, and he thought that Teacher Zhou was a really good person, and he would definitely follow him wholeheartedly.
Li Yu saw Zhou Cheng coming back, walked to the office, stood at the door and said: "Zhou Cheng, come here."
Zhou Cheng followed Li Yu to the director's office.
"Are you busy tonight?" Li Yu sat behind his desk and picked up his teacup.
"Hmm? It should be fine." Zhou Cheng didn't know what Li Yu was going to do. Was he going to ask him out for dinner? He definitely shouldn't...he had to think of a reason to refuse.
"I'll take you to touch Da Vinci later."
Hearing Li Yu's words, Zhou Cheng stood up immediately.
"Director, go now."
"You're not having dinner?" Li Yu had never seen the usually calm Zhou Cheng so anxious, so he laughed.
"It's too early now, let's not eat yet." Zhou Cheng looked eager to try.
Of course Li Yu understood Zhou Cheng's current mood, so he didn't keep him in suspense any longer and took Zhou Cheng back to the operating room.
The opportunity to practice the Leonardo da Vinci he had longed for was a rare opportunity. Zhou Cheng was completely focused throughout the entire process, and under Li Yu's guidance, he quickly mastered the technique. Li Yu was also very satisfied with Zhou Cheng's understanding and hands-on ability. The two of them forgot about time.
Until the circulating nurse walked into the operating room.
"Director Li, your phone has been ringing several times."
Li Yu then stood up and took the phone from the nurse.
"I'm going home to eat... What time is it? Is it past 8 o'clock?"
When Zhou Cheng heard the time, he was shocked. How could it be 8 o'clock so soon?
"Zhou Cheng, practice on your own. I have to go first."
Li Yu had a look of bad luck on his face. He had agreed to go home for dinner tonight. His wife cooked for him, which was rare for her, and the children were all home. However, he was late and no one answered the phone. Now he could only hurry home to make amends.
Zhou Cheng also walked off the stage in a nervous mood and hurriedly picked up his mobile phone. He saw no missed calls, only a few unread messages. It was Su Qingyan asking him why he hadn't gotten off work yet and whether he was undergoing surgery again.
Zhou Cheng went to the locker room, grabbed his white coat, and walked out quickly, even faster than Li Yu. While walking, he dialed Su Qingyan's number.
"Is the operation over?" Su Qingyan quickly answered the phone.
Zhou Cheng felt relieved when he heard that there was no anger in his voice.
"I was so busy just now that I forgot the time. Where are you?"
"There's a parking lot downstairs. Can you get off work now?"
"Yes, wait for me."
When Zhou Cheng hurried to the parking lot, he saw Su Qingyan lying on the flat driver's seat, fiddling with his cell phone.
"Working overtime on the first day back to work?"
"The director took me to operate the Da Vinci—"
"Oh, so you are going to meet your little lover?" Su Qingyan adjusted the seat and started the car while speaking.
"Don't talk nonsense..."
"It's okay. I'm still quite confident in myself. Look, you've come back obediently now, haven't you?"
Su Qingyan reached out and hooked Zhou Cheng's chin. He hadn't received a reply from Zhou Cheng for a long time. In fact, he had wanted to rush into his department to find him, but he felt that doing so would interfere with his normal work, so he held back.
It's rare to know how to think about others.
After Zhou Cheng returned to the clinic, his life gradually returned to normal, and the accidents that had occurred frequently before disappeared.
But life did not become dull and boring because of the repetitive work. Su Qingyan would add some color to his work every now and then, and each time he said that he was injecting some popularity into him, waiting for the day when he would be successful and become an adult.
Time flies from early spring to midsummer.
On the day of Zhou Cheng's associate professor exam, Su Qingyan personally drove him to the examination venue.
"Come on, I'll be waiting for you outside." Su Qingyan said solemnly while holding Zhou Cheng's hand outside the examination room gate.
"You should go back...it's so boring waiting in the car." Zhou Cheng was really puzzled. Why did this have to be as grand as the college entrance examination?
More than two hours later, Zhou Cheng came out of the examination room and was caught off guard. Su Qingyan was waiting for him at the door with a big bouquet of flowers.
It’s the veteran actress Red Rose again.
He really wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into and protect his face.
"Let's go, get in the car." Zhou Cheng took the flowers and walked quickly towards the parking lot. Many people around him cast inquiring glances at him.
"The exam is finally over. Can you play with me now?" Su Qingyan felt that he was the most relaxed person after Zhou Cheng finished the exam.
"What are you playing?" Zhou Cheng hurriedly got into the car and put the flowers on the back seat.
"Let's go, let's go. I've been waiting for a long time." Su Qingyan excitedly opened the door, got in the car, and stepped on the accelerator in one go.
