Chapter 1403 Don’t rush to respond
After nine o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned to his home in Junshan Mansion and found that there was a new honor display wall in the living room.
Seeing the items inside, such as the Meritorious Service Award Order, the First Class Merit Medal, the ribbon, and the Huashan Hospital's Annual Special Contribution Award Certificate, Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "There's no need to show them off, right?"
Qing Ning said with a proud smile, "How can you call it showing off if you show it off in your own home? Besides, you earned all this through your own ability. There's no reason to hide it."
Zeng Yanyu said proudly: "In a few years, this display wall will be filled with various honors."
Yu Zhiming smiled lightly and said in a very imposing manner: "Eat, I'm starving..."
After more than ten minutes, everyone sat down in the restaurant and started eating.
Yu Zhiming and Zhou Mo had a late dinner, while Qing Ning, Zeng Yan and Qi Xin had a midnight snack.
Qi Xin pinched her belly and said with a worried look on her face, "I've gotten fatter, and my belly is showing."
Zeng Yan advised with the tone of someone who had experienced it: "Don't worry at all. No matter how much weight you gain, you will lose it back by the time you are in your second or third year of high school."
"Really?" Qi Xin looked expectant.
Zeng Yan nodded and said, "Of course it's true. In order to get good grades in the college entrance examination, I studied day and night. The mental pressure was also huge. How could I not lose weight?"
Qi Xin said with a smile on her face, "Then I will eat without worry. The main reason is that the food at Zhiming's house is at least ten times better than the food at school and my house."
Qing Ning smiled and said, "Eat as much as you can. Maybe you can grow taller."
"Can I really grow a little taller?" Qi Xin looked at Yu Zhiming and asked expectantly, "Brother Zhiming, can I grow any taller?"
Yu Zhiming drank a mouthful of sea cucumber soup and said, "After dinner, I'll check you out. If the sutures haven't closed yet, it means you're still growing."
Sixteen-year-old Qi Xin is about 1.62 meters tall, which is considered a decent height among girls.
Obviously, Qi Xin wants to go even higher.
Qing Ning picked up a meatball for Yu Zhiming and said, "Zhiming, today a relative who works in a bank and is a few blocks away came to me and actually wanted to make a charitable donation."
"Attract deposits?" Yu Zhiming asked!
Qing Ning shook her head and said, "It's even worse than that. They're acting as a matchmaker for a company and want you to use your charitable donations to buy 200 million yuan worth of special bonds from that company."
"I promise to pay it back within a year, with 15% interest. Besides that, I'll give you a 10 million yuan bonus privately."
Qing Ning sighed again, "A huge sum of money, thirty or four billion, is quite tempting."
Yu Zhiming said: "For such a large amount of money, it is better to keep it in the bank and earn the interest on the large deposit."
"Lest you lose your principal due to greed for profits."
Qi Xin couldn't help but ask, "In this day and age, is there anyone so bold as to cheat Brother Zhiming out of his money?"
Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "Some people are willing to do anything to get money, even risking their lives, let alone defrauding a doctor like me who doesn't have much lethality."
He looked at Zhou Mo again and warned, "With billions of dollars in funds, someone might really take the risk. You and Zhao Fang should keep a close eye on them."
Zhou Mo had food in his mouth, so he could only mumble "hmm" and then nodded to show that he understood...
After dinner, Yu Zhiming checked Qi Xin's bone joints on the sofa in the living room.
The so-called suture actually refers to the epiphyseal line, the cartilage between the epiphysis and the metaphysis.
On X-rays of young children, it appears as a wide translucent band, which gradually becomes shorter with age.
When the cartilage at the epiphysis and metaphysis is completely ossified, a tight seam is formed. At this time, the epiphyseal line is completely closed, the bones stop growing, and the person will no longer grow taller.
Only long bones are considered here, because if long bones no longer grow, legs and arms will no longer grow.
The sutures usually close at around 18 years old for men and around 16 years old for women.
However, when it comes to individuals, there are individual differences due to differences in hormone levels, nutritional status, genetic factors, regional and environmental factors, and lifestyle habits.
There is also an old saying that goes "twenty-three", which means a jump.
This is because we can grow taller through non-bone tissues. In particular, the lengthening of the spine, including the lengthening of bones and interosseous tissues, has led to significant height growth in some people.
Yu Zhiming mainly examined the epiphyseal lines of Qi Xin's arm bones and leg bones, and found that the sutures of her arm bones were blurred, but the sutures of her leg bones were still clear.
"Depending on your bone structure, you can still grow for about another year. During this year, if you eat more, get more sleep, and exercise properly, you might be able to grow a pair of long legs and increase your height by another three or four centimeters."
"Really?" Qi Xin smiled happily.
The next moment, she pointed to her chest and said shyly, "Brother Zhiming, can you make it bigger here?"
"Well, I don't have high requirements. I just want one as big and pretty as Sister Momo."
Isn’t this a high requirement?
Yu Zhiming resisted the urge to roll his eyes and thought to himself, based on his extensive experience in breast examinations, Zhou Mo's breast size was within 5% of the average size among women.
If you take the appearance and outline into account, it is at least one in a thousand, or even one in ten thousand.
Yu Zhiming glanced at Qi Xin's already sizable chest and said, "Generally speaking, the peak period of breast development is between the ages of sixteen and eighteen. You're right at that stage."
"Promoting breast development is nothing more than diet and exercise. For details, you can ask Zhou Mo and Qing Ning."
Zeng Yan, who was standing by, glanced at her own body and said pitifully, "Uncle, in my condition, is there no chance of rescue?"
Yu Zhiming comforted him, "Yours isn't too small, it's average. You're a medical student, so you can look up information. Size isn't the main factor affecting a child's granary."
Just then, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang, which made him secretly relieved. He picked up the phone and answered it.
My father-in-law, Gu Changxuan's voice came from the phone, "Tomorrow, the details of the cooperation with the British royal family have been basically negotiated. They hope to give all 37 members of the British royal family a comprehensive physical examination in August."
"There are so many people?" Yu Zhiming was a little surprised.
Gu Changxuan explained: "In fact, there are only a dozen members of the British royal family. The rest are their in-laws and friends. We have explained to them that we need to review the list and cannot include political, business, or social figures who are unfriendly to our country."
"There's also the examination fee, which is £10,000 per person. If treatment is required, the cost is separate."
Yu Zhiming replied "OK".
Gu Changxuan added, "Regarding Boss Ma's explanation tomorrow, no matter how he explains it, promising but not donating is a major criticism, but he will definitely try to make amends for his actions."
"Zhiming, no matter what he says tomorrow, no matter how excessive it is, don't rush to respond, lest you fall into the trap of this old fox."
"We'll make a formal response after we discuss it."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Dad, don't worry. I'm not a young man. I know what's important and what's not."
"You can't be a good doctor if you're impatient..."
Not long after finishing his phone call with his father-in-law, Yu Zhiming suddenly received a call from cardiac surgeon Luo Yu.
"Doctor Yu, the twin brother's condition is a little dire. We can't wait any longer."
"I plan to perform heart transplant surgery on them tonight..."
