Chapter 8 Doctor Zhou's Identity Revealed
The next day, when Zhou Cheng was having lunch in the lounge of the operating room, Zhao Luo sent him a video. As soon as the screen was connected, there were several bundles of cash in it.
"Zhou Cheng, how do you do this?"
"You went to rob a bank" Zhou Cheng almost choked.
"The bar owner just came to deliver it personally. He said it's the payment for yesterday's performance, a total of 500,000, and asked me to divide it among the people in the band."
“Do you make so much money from performing?”
"Stop making trouble. The appearance fee has already been paid. Is it because of that troublemaker yesterday?"
Zhou Cheng put down his chopsticks when he heard this. "You guys divide it among yourselves. I'm just here to save the day."
"That won't work. The bar owner specifically said five people—"
"Just consider it as a gift. Aren't you and Huihui going to have a wedding?"
"Do you really have to let me deliver it to you personally?" Zhao Luo then moved the money aside and revealed his face.
"I'll leave it with you first. I'm busy these days."
Zhou Cheng put on a white coat and walked out of the operating room. Xiao Han said that he would arrive this afternoon and would invite him to dinner before the operation, a dinner that could not be postponed.
"How are you today?" Zhou Cheng came to Xiao Chu's ward.
"Brother Zhou is the reincarnation of Hua Tuo. I will run two laps for you now."
"Eat a light diet and don't drink alcohol for this week."
"I know, I know. The nurse told me yesterday." Xiao Chu suddenly started gossiping. "What happened to you guys later? I only watched half of the video."
Zhou Cheng frowned, "What video?"
"Someone took a video and posted it online. You're going to become an internet celebrity." Xiao Chu handed the phone to Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng wanted to leave the Earth after watching the opening scene. The video had beautiful background music, and the kissing scene was slowed down and played repeatedly. Adding a fireworks filter, it looked like they were a couple. One second longer and it would have been a revelation. Zhou Cheng saw the impressive number of likes and views and threw his phone back on the bed.
"You've got the wrong person. It's not me." After saying that, he didn't even check the room and walked out immediately.
The next day, Su Qingyan, rubbing his head from a hangover, went to the garage, picked a car at random, drove to the bar, threw the money on the bar owner's table, and asked for all the keyboard player's information. After the assistant got the basic information, he sent Su Qingyan the name of the hospital and ward a few minutes later.
Su Qingyan rushed to the hospital again with a gift box. Because of the cold weather, he could not show off, and he was fully armed with a hat, mask and scarf, and only his peach blossom eyes were visible from his body. Entering the inpatient building, the warm air from the air conditioner made him come alive again. The moment he walked into the general surgery ward 2, he attracted the nurses at the nurses station. Su Qingyan did not stay for long, went straight to the ward, knocked on the door symbolically, and walked in. He was stunned before he could say the words.
Who is this?
Xiao Chu also looked at him in confusion, then widened his eyes. Isn't this the other protagonist in the video?
Su Qingyan apologized and left the ward. He then strolled to the nurse's station and chatted with a nurse for a few words. It became clear that he had found the right ward. The name was the same. Why was the person different? He sent a message to his assistant, who replied with a photo.
Su Qingyan's mouth twitched when he saw this. See you again if we're destined to meet again.
It was almost 8pm when Zhou Cheng finally arrived at the restaurant they had agreed to meet. It was a coconut chicken hotpot restaurant. Xiao Han knew he wouldn't be able to find out what they liked, so he decided on his own.
After sitting down, Zhou Cheng first apologized for keeping them waiting. Feng Junchi calmly expressed his understanding and said that he was used to it.
Xiao Han knew all the precautions before the operation, so Zhou Cheng didn't waste any words explaining it. However, he was still confused when he heard Xiao Han calling him "Dad" left and right. Xiao Han immediately understood when he saw his expression.
"I've already met his parents and completed all the procedures. I'm just waiting to take a vacation and go abroad to get the certificate." Xiao Han said with a chuckle.
"What about your parents?" Zhou Cheng knew that Xiao Han's parents were not open-minded and were urging him to get married even more than his own parents.
"Hold a wedding and give them an explanation."
"You are going to have a wedding?" Zhou Cheng didn't even dare to imagine how explosive the scene would be.
"That's definitely not possible."
Zhou Cheng's eyes are saying what are you playing at
"He's a friend of Brother Hechi."
"Fake marriage" Zhou Cheng didn't expect him to play such a big game.
"Not really. We each get what we need. She also has to explain to her family."
Zhou Cheng still felt that this was unacceptable. He couldn't do it anyway, but fortunately it wasn't a marriage scam.
"You have to come when I get married." Xiao Han looked threateningly.
"Okay, okay." Zhou Cheng agreed verbally, but thought to himself that he would definitely not go. An excellent ex-boyfriend should be as good as dead. Now he is pretending to be dead, and then he will die after pretending to be dead.
Feng Junchi's father's surgery was a success. Afterward, Zhou Cheng patiently explained the precautions and possible complications. Xiao Han, standing by, tried to interrupt several times, but Zhou Cheng stopped him with a look. Zhou Cheng didn't want to expose Feng Junchi in front of him. If it weren't for him, Xiao Han wouldn't even have graduated from graduate school. He couldn't trust him.
Xiao Han only had two days to spare after swapping shifts with someone else, and he went home after the surgery. Feng Junchi had recently been working in Mincheng, and he stayed by the patient's bedside at night while working. Fortunately, it was an endoscopic surgery, so he would be discharged in a few days. He hadn't originally told the team about the surgery, but his rare absences over the past few days had let everyone know more or less. As he was the backbone of the head office's legal team, after President Su learned of this, he arranged for his assistants to visit the hospital to express their condolences, and this task fell to President Su's assistant.
"Can you lend me your ID card?" Su Qingyan has been feeling listless these past few days, as if he had a cold. He has no appetite, feels nauseous after eating, and gets drunk after drinking a little. He is very different from usual.
"Mr. Su, what do you want to do with my ID card?" He Zhu became alert immediately when he heard his boss's request.
"Don't ask too much about your boss's affairs." Su Qingyan stretched out her hand to him.
"You can borrow it, but I want to accompany you throughout the whole process."
"Okay, come with me to the hospital."
Originally, Su Qingyan wanted to go to a private hospital with good privacy, but knowing that He Zhu was also going to the hospital to visit a patient, he didn't bother to change places.
Su Qingyan registered using her assistant's ID card, and after having her blood drawn, she sat in the lobby awaiting the results. Taking advantage of this break, He Zhu went to the inpatient department with a basket of flowers and fruit. Su Qingyan sat in the lobby bored, then felt a little sleepy. Just as she was about to doze off, she was woken by a loud noise.
"It hurts so much! I've been in the hospital for hours? They did the tests and they couldn't tell me what's wrong! How can you be a doctor? Are you worthy of being one?"
Su Qingyan saw people pushing and shoving in the emergency hall, and a young doctor was besieged by several family members.
"You're an intern, right? Do you have a medical license? Ask your leader to come out!"
Su Qingyan sighed. This was one of the reasons why he didn't like going to public hospitals. It was noisy everywhere, which made him restless.
"The patient's condition is quite complicated. He has aortic dissection, common bile duct stones, and exudation around the gallbladder and pancreas. It's possible that the dissection has leaked blood into the surrounding organs, or it could be biliary pancreatitis. We've asked the vascular intervention department, general surgery department, and gastroenterology department for a consultation, and the consulting doctor will be here soon. But no matter what kind of disease it is, the condition is very serious, and further vascular enhanced CT scan may be needed to confirm the diagnosis." The doctor tried to explain the condition to the family.
"You're still asking for an inspection. Didn't you just do it? You're just trying to scam us out of our money. Why didn't you do the inspection you mentioned in the beginning? Why are you making us suffer?"
"The patient has had common bile duct stones for many years and has suffered repeated bile duct infections in the past. If not treated, it will develop into biliary pancreatitis. The abdominal CT just done was to check the condition of the gallbladder and pancreas, and the reason for the vascular enhanced CT was the discovery of arterial dissection." The doctor didn't understand why they were still so persistent. He had already explained it very clearly.
"When I was in pain, I used to get an anti-inflammatory shot and it would go away. Today, we're here to get an anti-inflammatory shot. Why don't you give us medicine? Why are you making us do so many tests to scare us?"
The doctor no longer wanted to communicate with these ignorant family members. He was now looking forward to the consulting doctor arriving soon, praying that it was not dissection bleeding.
After listening to a few words, Su Qingyan felt that the unilateral and unreasonable behavior was very meaningless, so he put on his headphones and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
The consulting doctors arrived one after another. Zhou Cheng carefully examined the patient and, after reviewing the X-rays, concluded that the patient's abdominal pain couldn't be explained simply by biliary pancreatitis. Seeing the frown on the vascular interventionalist's face, he secretly understood his answer.
On the other hand, the family members continued to pester the doctor in the emergency department.
"The dissection is about to rupture. Surgery is necessary immediately." The interventional doctor looked at the patient's vital signs, which were still stable for the time being, and said to Zhou Cheng, "Is there anything in the bile duct that needs immediate attention?"
"The cause of the abdominal pain is not common bile duct stones. The exudation around the pancreas should be bloody exudation. Please ask the imaging department to measure the CT value." Zhou Cheng said while looking at the abdominal CT carefully.
"The family members seem quite difficult to deal with." The consulting doctor from the Department of Gastroenterology looked at the indignant family members next to him and felt a little worried.
"Family members over there!" Zhou Cheng suddenly shouted, and the hall fell silent.
Although Su Qingyan was wearing headphones, he was startled by the roar. He lifted his heavy eyelids to look at the culprit, but his gaze caught a familiar figure. The keyboard player who had been on stage a few days ago was now dressed in a shirt, leather shoes, and a white coat, diligently communicating with the patient's family.
Fuck, it's really him.
