The Surgeon's Studio Chapter 575 - Have You Ever Held Up A Banner?

Chapter 575: Have You Ever Held Up A Banner?

It was still early. Gao Shaojie was on his way out of the clinic and was scheduled to meet him at the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University. After that, he would watch the scans and see the patients before going out for dinner in the evening.

Zheng Ren told Feng Xuhui that he would take Professor Rudolf Wagner to a hotel room first and inform him when to have dinner.

Of course, Feng Xuhui wanted to go with Zheng Ren but since Zheng Ren had already arranged it, he did not object.

Hu Hai drove all the way to the underground parking lot of the First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University. After that, he brought Zheng Ren and Xie Yiren to get a change of clothes first.

The First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University had a lot of outpatient patients every day. If they wore casual clothes, they would not be allowed to go in.

After all, the patients had waited in line for an entire day. They were all anxious. If someone swaggered in directly, they would make a scene every day because of it.

Hu Hai saved himself the trouble. It was not far anyway, so he brought Zheng Ren to change his clothes.

Li Sumei took Xie Yiren back to the department to wait for a call. She and Xie Yiren were chatting happily. Zheng Ren did not understand anything about the lipstick numbers.

In Zheng Ren’s opinion, all lipstick was the same color.

It was almost time to get off work but there were still many patients lined up outside the clinic. Zheng Ren and Hu Hai walked into the clinic and went straight to Gao Shaojie’s office.

Gao Shaojie was treating an elderly patient. He was perusing the patient to estimate the number of ascites.

When he saw Zheng Ren come in, he said excitedly, “Boss, you’re here!”

Zheng Ren waved his hand, indicating for him to go back to his work and ignore him.

He placed an old man on the examination bed. The s.h.i.+rt resting on his stomach was still lifted up. It was not appropriate for him to be in such a state in front of others.

The patient’s family members were puzzled when they heard Gao Shaojie with his greying hair address Zheng Ren as boss. They secretly looked at Zheng Ren from the corner of their eyes, sizing him up and taking guesses at who he was.

After Gao Shaojie finished examining the patient’s body, he used his hands to disinfect it. He picked up the film and inserted it into the reading device as he said, “Boss, take a look. I think the patient is suitable for TIPS surgery.”

Zheng Ren nodded and leaned over.

The patient was a typical patient with late-stage cirrhosis, portal hypertension, ascites, and a large spleen.

The surgical indications were all well chosen. There were no problems at all. Zheng Ren looked at the test results again. There would be no issues with conducting surgery.

After a short exchange, Gao Shaojie gave the patient the admission form and left him his phone number. He also gave the patient a diffusion-weighted MRI liver test.

Perfecting all kinds of tests before admission, especially the ones that required waiting in line, could shorten the hospitalization time and increase the hospital’s turnover rate.

It was just a small trick and did not have much effect on the patient himself.

When Gao Shaojie gave the form, a man in a security uniform walked in.

Zheng Ren was recalling the patient’s diffusion-weighted MRI scan when he heard a ‘clang’.

The man in the security uniform was especially rude. He walked in and kicked Gao Shaojie’s desk.

“Old Gao, you’re amazing!” The man scolded him in front of the patient. “You listened to my brother but didn’t even give me a G.o.dd.a.m.n bonus!”

Gao Shaojie adjusted his gla.s.ses with disgust.

“Who gave you the guts to do such a thing?!” the man said fiercely.

Zheng Ren raised his head and took a look.

Eh? The man seemed familiar.

The iconic big and yellow teeth pulled Zheng Ren’s memory back to the incident in the gynecology department a few months ago.

Yes, it was him.

Although Zheng Ren usually could not recognize faces, the man’s big yellow teeth still had some vegetable leaves on them. It was obvious what he had eaten for lunch.

He seemed to be the one who was holding the banner…

“Are you from Sea City?” Gao Shaojie did not say anything. Zheng Ren asked first.

“Why the f*ck do you care about where I come from?” The big yellow teeth cursed. He turned his head and was temporarily dazed as he swallowed the rest of his words.

“Have you ever held a banner before?” Zheng Ren did not remember if he was one of the people holding the banner. His mind was consumed with the image as he opened his mouth and asked the question

Big yellow teeth instantly wilted. With a big smile on his face, his waist could not help but bend down. “Doctor Zheng, Chief Zheng, Zheng…”

“Ah?” Zheng Ren looked him in the eyes. He really did not dare to look at his mouth. The big yellow teeth looked as if they were alive. As long as he looked at them, they would tell Zheng Ren about what had happened during lunch.

“Why are you here?” Big yellow teeth complained in his heart. He had to hide in the Provincial Capital but could not avoid this young master. What had he done?

No, he would have to burn some paper or set off some firecrackers to get rid of the bad luck when he went back that night.

“I’m here to do the surgery with Old Gao.” Zheng Ren smiled gently.

Slap! The big yellow teeth slapped his face. It was not very hard but was very loud.

It was obvious that he was experienced. It was not the first time he had done this.

“Master Zheng, I was wrong, I was wrong!” Big yellow teeth bowed and kept apologizing.

“Are you selling your account?” Zheng Ren did not stand up nor did he stop him. He only asked lightly.

“Didn’t Master Liu say that he would not let us become doctors and cause trouble? I also felt that the matter would not last long so I brought my brothers to the Provincial Capital to beg for a living.” Big yellow teeth took the opportunity to stop as he smiled apologetically and said, “My brothers have brought their families with them so we have to have a living.”

“Don’t be so unreasonable. If you have something to say, we can talk it out,” Zheng Ren said. “Also, just call me Zheng Ren.”

“Okay, okay. Doctor Zheng, I won’t disturb you anymore.” Big yellow teeth rolled his eyes, trying to decipher Zheng Ren’s expression. Was he unhappy?

“I’ll take my leave now?” Big yellow teeth looked at Zheng Ren uneasily and asked in a low voice.

“Go. Remember to talk things out in the future. Don’t be too greedy, ” Zheng Ren reminded him.

Big yellow teeth bowed repeatedly. He did not even dare to raise his head. He turned around and ran.

When he turned around, he was too anxious. He did not pay attention and b.u.mped his head against the door frame.

Clang! The sound was extremely loud. It was comparable to the kick he made when he kicked at Old Gao’s door.

Da Huang did not dare to cry out in pain. He covered his head and disappeared in an instant.

Hu Hai looked at Zheng Ren in shock. Little Boss Zheng was not old and not only did he perform surgery well, but there were even these ruffians afraid of him?

These ruffians were not simple men too.

Even the head of the Provincial hospital did not have the right to decide who the security guards were placed. Rumors had it that it was the sort of thing that could cause bloodshed.

Every time the security guards changed, there were two or more parties that had to settle it privately at the side.

It was said then that a few people had even lost their lives.

Among that group of people, not a single doctor wanted to a.s.sociate with them.

Usually, when they came to ask for a number, the doctor would also know they were reselling. The First Affiliated Hospital of Provincial Capital Medical University was not comparable to the Cla.s.s Three Grade A hospitals in the Capital or Sorcery Capital. A single number was usually not too expensive but if the seller was a scalper, it would be several hundreds more.

Especially for a specialist like Gao Shaojie, it was even harder for them to settle things.

Hu Hai shook his head slightly and praised him, “Teacher Zheng, you’re really amazing!”

“Oh, I’m from Sea City.” Zheng Ren said, “I gave their boss a beating once.”

Zheng Ren was also very glad. He did not want to encounter the big black umbrella incident in the Capital again. However, the group of people gave him a lot of face. It seemed that he had to go back and find Lian Xiaoliu for a meal to thank him.
