Because they delayed a lot of time in rescuing the reckless teenager Pan Qin, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when Yu Zhiming and his companions came down the mountain and returned to the holiday resort.
If you go to a buffet restaurant at this time, you can only eat what is available.
Yu Zhiming invited the two young men, Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua, to have lunch together in the small building where they were staying.
Because they had communicated with the staff of the sanatorium in advance, Yu Zhiming and his companions returned to the two-story building where they were staying to wash up and rest. Then a staff member drove an electric car and brought them a hot lunch.
Looking at the table full of food, Leng Feng and Lei Jiahua were both shocked.
Lei Jiahua looked up at Yu Zhiming and asked in surprise, "You can actually order food and have it delivered to your door. Brother Yu, what exactly are you? What level of leadership is your uncle?"
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "I am a doctor. My parents are both farmers."
He pointed to two dishes on the table and said, "This is salted fish with shrimp roe, and this is stewed loach. I ordered them especially for you."
Leng Tao looked at the table full of food and said worriedly, "It would be a waste if we can't finish such a large table of food."
Qing Ning said with a smile: "They say that young boys can eat their parents out of money. You are all in the growing age, so you must have a good appetite."
"You and Brother Yu compete to see who eats more."
Yu Zhiming was the first to pick up his chopsticks and said, "Stop talking nonsense. You must be hungry after climbing the mountain for a whole morning."
“Eat, eat…”
Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua were both young at heart and were quite familiar with Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning. After their initial hesitation, they began to eat heartily...
At this moment, Qi Yue finished his working lunch with the visiting group of medical experts from Johns Hopkins Hospital in the United States and returned to the director's office on the seventh floor of Zhizhen Building.
The American medical delegation arrived in Binhai yesterday afternoon and started medical exchanges with Huashan Hospital this morning.
Qi Yue was invited to participate in the medical discussion on behalf of Huashan Hospital together with several medical experts from other departments.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, Qi Yue knew that these Americans came for Yu Zhiming.
They expressed their dissatisfaction with Yu Zhiming's absence on vacation very clearly.
Huashan Hospital did not indulge them and stated directly that Dr. Yu had no interest in participating in this purely academic medical exchange.
Therefore, everyone knows that Yu Zhiming's ability lies mainly in his talent for detecting the big picture from the details, and he still has great deficiencies in medical theory and treatment experience.
Yu Zhiming cannot get involved in this kind of high-level medical exchange for the time being.
The Americans obviously knew this, but they arrogantly thought that Yu Zhiming should appear at the first opportunity and flatter them.
The morning's medical exchange ended hastily, and the Americans put forward the main purpose of their visit, medical cooperation.
One is the treatment of patients with advanced cancer.
The second is the experimental treatment of Ji's amino acids.
The third is the screening research for very early cancer.
It is obvious that the Americans came prepared this time and immediately targeted the most core medical achievements of Huashan Hospital.
At the working lunch at noon, in addition to Qi Yue and other medical experts who participated in the medical exchange, Vice President Tan and Qu Chang, who were in charge of external cooperation negotiations at Huashan Hospital, and Gu Qingran from Ning'an also attended.
During the lunch discussion, Vice President Tan and his colleagues told the Americans that all three of their cooperation requests were negotiable, depending on how much they were willing to pay in exchange...
Qi Yue rubbed his eyebrows. The subsequent cooperation negotiations between the two parties did not require his participation, so he could devote his energy to the diagnosis and treatment work at hand.
He picked up a medical record on the desk and had just been reading it for a few minutes when someone knocked on the door.
Qi Yue looked at Dr. Xu Lu who was approaching and saw him handing him a printed version of the paper.
"Director, could you please give me some pointers?"
Qi Yue took the paper and took a look at the title and abstract, and found that it was a paper on urethral reconstruction.
"Doctor Xu, you think too highly of me. This is a urology paper, which is not my specialty, so I can't offer any constructive suggestions."
When Xu Lu saw Qi Yue handing the paper back, he felt a little embarrassed and finally spoke out his real intention.
"Director, you have a wide network of connections. Could you recommend this paper so that it can be published before the end of August?"
Qi Yue was slightly startled and asked, "Are you going to participate in this year's selection for the title of chief physician?"
Xu Lu nodded gently and said, "They say there are more opportunities this year. I want to give it a try."
Qi Yue placed the paper on his desk and said, "It's a recognized fact that there are relatively more places for the selection this year, but the competition is not necessarily weaker than in previous years."
"From what I know, all the deputy chief physicians who have hope of being selected are working very hard to improve themselves."
After a pause, Qi Yue continued slowly, "Like the other surgeons Zhiming reviewed, they're either practicing in the lab or performing surgeries in the operating room. I heard that at least half of them have made quite encouraging progress."
Xu Lu felt his face getting hot, and knew that the director was implicitly expressing his dissatisfaction.
After receiving Yu Zhiming's guidance, he gave up after three days of enthusiasm.
"Director, I..."
Qi Yue waved his hand to stop Xu Lu from explaining and said, "Doctor Xu, I used to be very optimistic about your development potential. I believed that your future achievements would not be inferior to those of Doctor You Weixian who jumped to Jingcheng Hospital."
The next moment, Qi Yue turned and said, "Doctor Xu, you are a surgeon. If you want to be rated as a chief physician, the most important thing is your surgical skills."
Qi Yue nodded at this and continued, "Leave this paper with me first. I'll find someone to take a look at it for you."
Xu Lu said "thank you" to Qi Yue with some shame, and fled from the director's office.
The moment the office door closed, Qi Yue shook his head. He was full of energy at first, but then it weakened and finally he was exhausted.
Xu Lu is middle-aged now, and his heart is also middle-aged. He has lost the fighting spirit. It is not easy for him to make a comeback unless he experiences major changes or excitement in his life.
Qi Yue couldn't help but think of his eldest son again.
From what he learned, this guy became a little comfortable after getting married.
Judging from his performance, Qi Yue couldn't help but worry that his eldest son's future would only be as an associate chief physician. Even if he was lucky enough to become a chief physician, he would only be an ordinary one.
In contrast, Yu Zhiming, who has already achieved success and made a lot of money, still works hard and studies diligently.
Qi Yue felt a little depressed after a simple comparison.
At this moment, his cell phone rang.
It was Zhou Mo calling.
"Director, do you know? I heard that Qi Zhen and Qiao Lei's live broadcast company broke up?"
Qi Yue's heart trembled, and he asked, "I don't know yet. Can you tell me what's going on?"
Zhou Mo said on the phone: "I also heard about it by chance, so I asked around. It was said that Qi Zhen felt that the live broadcast company's commission was too high. In the end, the live broadcast company made all the money, but he kept losing money."
Qi Yue uttered a soft "oh" and said, "In business, there are gains and losses. If we can't make money together, we can only go our separate ways..."
After nearly an hour's hard work, with the main force of Yu Zhiming, the two new forces of Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua, and the joint efforts of Zhang Hai and Qing Ning, they successfully cleared out the full table of food.
Yu Zhiming could see that the two teenagers were a little full, so he sat with them in the living room and chatted while digesting their food.
After a while, the small building welcomed visitors.
Dr. Wang Xingkui, the medical director of the sanatorium, and a middle-aged couple.
Yu Zhiming knew this middle-aged couple. They were the parents of the reckless teenager Pan Qin.
At that time, we were busy helping Pan Qin get out of trouble and provide him with treatment, and the two sides only got to know each other briefly.
Did you come here specially to express your gratitude?
Wang Xingkui spoke first, "Doctor Yu, it's consistent with your assessment. Pan Qin didn't have much venom, and it wasn't very toxic. After receiving the anti-venom serum and other treatments, his condition has stabilized and improved significantly."
"However, we still need to observe closely for a day or two."
After Wang Xingkui finished his introduction, Pan Qin's father said with gratitude, "Dr. Yu, thank you. If you hadn't discovered it in time, I can't say what would have happened to my son."
Yu Zhiming said politely: "Actually, the biggest contributors are not me, but these two."
He pointed at Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua and said, "To be honest, after receiving the notice, I didn't take it seriously."
"It was Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua's enthusiastic calls along the way that attracted your son's response."
Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua, who were introduced, stood straight with serious expressions.
Pan Qin's father looked at the two teenagers and said, "My son told me that he heard someone calling his name while he was half asleep, and told him to come down the mountain to eat. He grabbed the little clarity in his mind and shouted for help."
"Thank you both for your enthusiasm and courage. My husband and I will personally express our gratitude to your parents later."
Leng Tao replied modestly: "No, no, we just provided some small help, it's not worth mentioning."
Wang Xingkui said, "If it weren't for your discovery, the person in charge of the center would have already decided to organize a search of the mountain if there was no news in an hour."
"Your discovery saved a lot of manpower and resources, and also allowed the child to be rescued earlier, avoiding the possibility of further accidents. You deserve to be thanked."
Pan Qin's father took over and said, "The services and supplies here are all free. We want to express our gratitude, but we don't know where to start."
"Well, after we leave here, we will prepare a gift and send it to your homes."
Yu Zhiming declined, "It's just a small favor for us. We didn't put in much effort. A verbal thank you is enough. No need to express your gratitude, really."
Pan Qin's mother finally spoke, her face sincere, "It may seem like a simple favor to you, but for us, it concerns our son's health and life. We would feel uneasy if we didn't express our gratitude."
Seeing that the parents were speaking from the heart, Yu Zhiming did not refuse any more. He thought to himself, he would wait and see what specific gift they gave him.
Pan Qin's father then said, "My son is very careful about protecting his eyesight, exercises every day, and often dreams of becoming a hero in the future."
"He couldn't stop crying after what happened today. He said he was in real trouble and that he hadn't acted bravely or rationally. He wasn't a hero, more like a bear."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Heroes aren't born; they're forged gradually. If you learn to be ashamed and then become brave, the chances of becoming a hero in the future are quite high."
Pan Qin's father chuckled and said, "That's what I advised him too. Only after going through life can one understand how difficult it is to be a hero. I want him to have fewer fantasies and be more down-to-earth."
At this time, Yu Zhiming suddenly noticed that Pan Qin's mother's face turned pale and her hand was touching her chest.
"Your heart isn't feeling well?"
Pan Qin's mother put down her hand, forced a smile, and said, "I'm just a little scared. I'm still a little frightened."
"To be honest, Doctor Yu, when my son still hadn't returned after nine o'clock in the morning, I had a premonition and started to panic. I kept asking my husband to look for him."
Pan Qin's father said somewhat sheepishly, "I thought the child was already seventeen years old, an adult, and in such a safe place as a sanatorium. How could something like this happen?"
"I thought my wife was just making a big deal out of nothing. She was so annoyed that she had to ask the center staff for help."
He sighed again, "I'm so ashamed. The bond between father and son is not as strong as the bond between mother and son."
Yu Zhiming hummed in agreement twice, but seeing that Pan Qin's mother's face had not yet recovered, he felt a little itchy.
After struggling for a moment, he felt that he should still adhere to the principle of doctors not knocking on the door, and not speaking unless the other party made a request.
Unless something major is wrong.
From the current perspective, the fear and lingering fear that Pan Qin’s mother expressed can still be explained.
Pan Qin's parents probably noticed that Yu Zhiming was distracted, so they chatted for a few more words and then took their own leave.
After the three visitors left, Leng Tao and Lei Jiahua also proposed to leave, wanting to go back and have a good talk with their parents about the thank you that the other party had just mentioned.
When Yu Zhiming, Qing Ning, and Zhang Hai were alone in the small building, Qing Ning asked with a smile, "Zhiming, are you itching to give someone a physical exam?"
"Did you figure it out?" Yu Zhiming asked.
Qing Ning smiled and said, "I am considered your bedmate, and you showed it so obviously, so of course I noticed it."
Yu Zhiming looked at his hands and said self-deprecatingly, "I guess I'm destined to be a hard worker. I've only been out for two days and I'm already itching to get back to work."
Qing Ning said, "You don't have a hard life. You are kind and compassionate. You can't bear to see others suffer."
After a pause, she asked curiously, "Did you notice that she had a serious heart problem?"
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "Don't think too highly of me. She and I didn't have any physical contact. I can't tell if someone has a problem just by observing their expressions."
“I just think it’s possible.”
He chuckled again and said, "Actually, I was worrying too much."
"As a high-end military convalescent center, the capabilities of Dr. Wang Xingkui and his colleagues should not be underestimated. If there's a problem, he should be able to find it."
Those who come here for recuperation will first go to the medical center headed by Dr. Wang Xingkui for a physical examination.
Yu Zhiming and the others naturally don't need this inspection...
