Chapter 163 Return visit!

11 Month 18 Day!

The seventh day of the tenth lunar month.

breeze.

At 7:30 a.m., Guo Ziyuan stood at the entrance of the surgical building, queuing for the staff elevator.

He was wearing a white coat and stood at the back of the crowd.

"Buzz...buzz..."

Guo Ziyuan felt the phone vibrate in the pocket of his white coat and took it out.

Radiology Department, Yao Tiao: "Dr. Guo, I've arrived at the emergency room. I brought you breakfast."

Yao Tiao's generosity differs from Liu Lingli's; Yao Tiao's generosity leans more towards initiative.

She would not only take the initiative to chat with Guo Ziyuan, but she would also directly tell Guo Ziyuan what she was doing, what she was doing, and what she would do.

In contrast, Liu Lingli, whether due to her youth or slight shyness, tends to express her initiative more subtly.

Yao Tiao's personality is similar to Liu Lingli's, but she is much more mature.

"I've had breakfast. This morning I'm going to the trauma surgery department for a follow-up appointment with a patient."

"She's being discharged today," Guo Ziyuan replied truthfully.

"Oh, okay, I'll take it and ask someone else."

"Don't waste it."

"Dr. Guo, I'm waiting for you here in the emergency room."

"Director Zheng said I can wait for you here. I won't interfere with their normal medical services," Yao Tiao reported.

Putting away his phone, Guo Ziyuan's mind involuntarily drifted to Yao Tiao's face, which was both innocent and alluring.

He bared his teeth again.

Reality is far more terrifying than the internet...

Guo Ziyuan got on the elevator at 7:22, but didn't get off until 7:26.

There is a staff member on duty on the first floor of the staff elevator, but patients' family members are still going up and down the elevator shaft outside the wards.

This is something even the hospital can't handle.

Fortunately, it was still early.

When Guo Ziyuan arrived at the Department of Trauma Surgery, his senior colleague Nie Yunqi, who was well-prepared, was already waiting for him.

Upon seeing Guo Ziyuan, he proactively approached him with his medical record book: "Xiao Guo, have you eaten?"

Nie Yunqi actually wanted to call Guo Teacher or Brother Guo, but he was afraid that if he did, it would be inconsistent with Guo Ziyuan's identity.

So he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue calling out to Xiao Guo.

"I've already eaten, Brother Nie."

"Chi Huanlin's condition should be recovering extremely well, right?"

"You still insist that I come to see her?" Guo Ziyuan's voice sounded a bit annoyed.

Nie Yunqi smiled wryly: "Xiao Guo, once you're in the martial world, you're not in control of your own destiny."

"Thank you for your hard work and for troubling me."

"The patient and their family strongly requested that you review their case before confirming the discharge date."

"He could have been discharged yesterday."

Did Nie Yunqi want to trouble Guo Ziyuan to do such a small thing as a discharge assessment?

Nie Yunqi would have sent most patients away long ago.

But this is Chi Huanlin. Not to mention Nie Yunqi, even Director Liu Hanjun would only fawn over him with a forced smile.

Nie Yunqi and Guo Ziyuan walked side by side into the ward.

Today, Chi Huanlin wore a light green plush pajama set with a playful and cute floral pattern.

When Guo Ziyuan entered the ward, Chi Huanlin's wound had already been opened.

She has always had cosmetic sutures, so the surgical incision has always been a single line, only with a longer arc.

Chi Huanlin wasn't wearing socks, so it was clear that the skin tone on her calves was several times darker than the skin tone on her feet.

This is the result of pigment buildup!

Guo Ziyuan certainly wouldn't admire the patient's feet or anything like that. After putting on examination gloves, Guo Ziyuan probed the skin on Chi Huanlin's calves.

Feel the tension in the internal soft tissues.

"The swelling has disappeared, and there is no tenderness."

Guo Ziyuan then looked up and said, "I checked the test results on my way here, and everything is fine."

"You could have been discharged long ago... I thought you'd been discharged for several days already..."

The person accompanying Chi Huanlin today was not her mother, but a middle-aged man with a somewhat frivolous expression!

His hairstyle was even a bit trendy, and his facial features bore a resemblance to Chi Huanlin: "Dr. Guo, my daughter's illness has been dragging on for too long."

"Even though she's finally been confirmed to be recovered, she still wants to be on the safe side."

"Dr. Guo, we dare not act rashly without your visit."

Upon hearing Guo Ziyuan's affirmation, Chi Huanlin smiled and said, "Dr. Guo, thank you."

"I'm relieved to hear that."

After Chi Huanlin finished speaking, he lowered his trouser leg.

Her wound had already healed and no longer needed bandages.

She even took two showers with a waterproof membrane on.

The reason they weren't discharged was to call Guo Ziyuan to come and see them again to confirm their discharge status.

Guo Ziyuan withdrew his hand at this time: "It's okay. I just looked at the CT scan. The edema signals in the bone marrow and cortical bone have basically disappeared."

"Although her osteomyelitis has created a groove, most of her bone tissue is still intact."

"In my last surgery, I also had bone grafting. As long as I don't engage in strenuous exercise, my daily activities are not restricted."

"Avoid external injuries, avoid heavy lifting, and live a normal life."

Hearing this, Nie Yunqi felt relieved: "Chi Huanlin, I'll go get your hospital records and medical diagnosis."

According to the rules, the discharge procedures will not begin until 9:00 AM.

However, for the sake of some people, this rule can be slightly modified.

Nie Yunqi was deliberately making room for Guo Ziyuan.

After Nie Yunqi left, he closed the door behind him.

Chi Huanlin's father looked Guo Ziyuan up and down for a while before saying, "I heard from Director Chen that Dr. Guo is a doctor at the Provincial People's Hospital?"

"You look so young!"

Guo Ziyuan nodded: "You must be Chi Huanlin's father. I'm studying at the Provincial People's Hospital, but I haven't signed a contract yet."

"Chi Huanlin's attending physician, Nie Yunqi, is my senior colleague. When we had dinner together before, my senior colleague shared her case with me."

"I found it very interesting after reading it, so I gave some suggestions, which may have been a bit abrupt..."

Chi Yuan shook his head: "Dr. Guo, when it comes to great things, one shouldn't be bothered by trifles."

"You've done a great job with the size and cooking time; our whole family is very grateful to you."

"Please don't misunderstand me; I'm not questioning you about anything."

Chi Huanlin then said, "Dad, didn't you say you were going to give Dr. Guo your business card?"

"Take it out?"

Ikegaki's lips twitched slightly, as if he were hesitant.

Seeing this expression, Guo Ziyuan took the initiative to explain, "Business cards are unnecessary; it's enough that Chi Huanlin's condition has improved."

"I thought you had all been discharged from the hospital long ago."

"When I came in last time for a biopsy to administer medication, I told you that you could be discharged soon."

"Now that I've seen it, I can go back and live a normal life."

"If there's nothing else..."

Upon hearing this, Ikegaki pulled a simple hard card from his coat pocket.

The card is plain white, and the font is the simplest printed typeface.

A phone number, nothing more.

"Dr. Guo, this is my contact information. You can save it."

"If you encounter any difficulties in your work or life in the future, you can call me anytime."

"We all know about Huanlin's condition. We have already consulted many professors for her."

"Hanlin also said that he wanted to thank you properly."

Guo Ziyuan accepted the business card; the description on it was very simple.

Ikegaki, 185XXX...

"Thank you, I'll go back to work now. I wish you a speedy recovery." Guo Ziyuan politely and casually put the item into the pocket of his white coat before turning and leaving the ward.

"Hey, Dr. Guo, I'd like to invite you to dinner."

Guo Ziyuan had already closed the door and left.

Chi Huanlin's expression couldn't help but show a slight disappointment when he didn't receive a response from Guo Ziyuan.

Chi Yuan's expression completely relaxed at this moment. He looked at Chi Huanlin seriously and smiled silently.

"You're just like your mother, but this Dr. Guo isn't as easily fooled as I am..."

Chi Huanlin asked, "Dad, what does 'lie' mean?"

"Grandma said, didn't you and Mom meet through a blind date?"

Chi Yuan: "That was just what I thought was a blind date... Of course, your mother is also very nice."

"However, this is a matter of our time."

"Your times are different now, you need to be careful."

Chi Yuan had no problem with Guo Ziyuan, and he didn't think that Chi Huanlin having a slight crush on a boy was anything heinous.

But there is one thing.

Chi Huanlin is his daughter, and she has been raising cabbages for over twenty years.

He cast a suggestive glance at a pig.

This made him instinctively feel uncomfortable!

This has nothing to do with Guo Ziyuan's family background, identity, skills, status, or whether he is handsome or not...

Chi Huanlin then said, "What's with all this talk about being cautious, Dad? You still have that old-fashioned way of thinking."

"Admiration doesn't necessarily mean you have to be in a relationship with someone."

"Having a good impression doesn't mean you have to possess it."

"Meeting doesn't have to last forever."

"A person's life is essentially about using themselves as a pen to write their own story."

"When writing a story, if you force yourself to conform to techniques or deliberately do not conform, the story will be distorted and lose its original beauty."

"Is Dr. Guo very handsome?"

"Similarly, he's very talented too..."

"Don't you think so?"

Chi Yuan could not refute the label that Chi Huanlin had given to Guo Ziyuan.

When getting along with people, first look at their appearance and then their character.

The idea that you can tell a person's character at a glance is utter nonsense.

However, talent is something that is very difficult to fake.

Especially the doctor's talent!

Guo Ziyuan was able to cure Chi Huanlin, even if Guo Ziyuan used some underhanded means.

If Guo Ziyuan has this ability, isn't that talent?

This is for treating illness!

This is the disease that even top professors and senior professors at Tongji Hospital and Union Hospital have suffered from!

Isn't that talent?

Of course, objectively speaking, Ikegaki would feel that Guo Ziyuan's status is a little too low.

He was just a doctor, and his knowledge of other areas was completely blank.

From a father's perspective, he would feel that if Chi Huanlin were to associate with such a person, it would lower his quality of life.

However, Chi Yuan only has this one precious daughter: "I told your mother that you can make your own decisions about your life."

"You've always been very opinionated."

Chi Yuan stretched and looked out the window: "I can't be bothered to interfere."

"Your mother and I only hope that you can be happy and not suffer any losses or grievances for no reason..."

Chi Huanlin then asked, "Dad, what do you think I'll suffer?"

"Were you cheated out of money, your feelings, and your emotions?"

"You can't even remember the stories you, Mom, and my uncles and aunts told me, can you?"

"I know what to do!"

"I wouldn't easily take that step without spending half a year together and getting to know each other well."

Chi Huanlin also stood up, her voice clear and crisp: "You and Mom have protected me too well, which makes me both expectant and afraid of relationships."

"Actually... I understand it myself."

"If we go back a bit further, my feelings for Dr. Guo might have been purely physical."

"However, I've been hospitalized for so long."

"Although you and Mom didn't tell me what I went through during my surgery, the things you taught me have made me able to read people's expressions."

"At this moment, Dr. Guo's sudden appearance will inevitably take on a touch of heroism."

Chi Huanlin's expression was natural yet playful: "Dad, he can be considered my savior."

"This is a difficult case that many professors have deemed intractable!"

"And he's not an old-fashioned scholar either..."

"Yes, Dad, it's actually like this."

"I saw him before he came to treat me."

"I always watch the sunset under the big tree in front of the hospital building to find inspiration."

"He would often pass by that place on his way home."

Chi Huanlin did not hide anything from his father.

"At first I misunderstood, thinking that he had a family member hospitalized."

Chi Yuan's eyes flickered.

He gave Chi Huanlin one last piece of advice: "Huanlin, your father will always be your father."

"What I mean is, if you do as I say!"

"Your life may not be as happy as you imagined."

"At least you can live a decent life..."

Chi Huanlin said, "It's obvious, Dad, your daughter is rather greedy."

"You're the one who fostered her confidence and greed."

"It was also you who let her be free."

Chi Yuan stroked Chi Huanlin's hair and sighed, "But Dad noticed that you're just a patient in his eyes."

Chi Huanlin's tone also softened slightly: "I know... but it's an undeniable fact."

"No rush."

There's no need to rush.

Chi Huanlin has a clear plan and many ideas for her life, and she is very confident.

……

When Guo Ziyuan returned to the emergency room, there were still six minutes before his scheduled 8 o'clock shift.

In the rest room of the emergency room, Yao Tiao was chatting and laughing with someone.

However, Yao Tiao's attempts to blend in were not the kind of seductive flattery, but rather a very serious and normal conversation with Qian Shuhang and the others.

She even noticed Guo Ziyuan at the door, so she immediately waved and greeted him in a generous manner: "Teacher Guo, we're making breakfast."

"Would you like to add a little more?"

Meanwhile, Qian Shuhang and Ning Sanlong were also beckoning to Guo Ziyuan.

Guo Ziyuan entered the room: "Teacher Qian, Professor Ning, I have already eaten."

"You can continue, you'll be going to work soon."

Guo Ziyuan glanced at the lavish breakfast on the table and clicked his tongue, "I kind of regret eating so early and so much."

"But there's nothing we can do about it."

Ning Sanlong chuckled: "Xiao Guo, that's why I say, making a choice too early will always lead to some regrets."

Ning Sanlong's words were loaded with meaning, but he didn't express them directly.

Yao Tiao's eating manners weren't very elegant; when she bit into the dumplings, juice would even splatter from the corners of her mouth. She simply held the dumplings in her hands and ate with gusto, without any hesitation...

Guo Ziyuan saw these details clearly, but he simply found a chair and sat down!

His phone vibrated again!
