This miracle doctor just wants to be fired!

Around noon, the electronic queuing system in the emergency department finally stopped working.

The number of patients in the corridor has also decreased by more than half.

Zhou Cheng stretched and rubbed his sore shoulders. He said to Li Yang and Chen Xi, "We've finished seeing all the patients this morning. You can go eat after you've finished organizing the medical records. Come back at 2 PM. At noon, everyone in the emergency room will be seen in clinic number three next door. Dr. Wang, who will be taking over the shift, has already arrived."

"Okay, senior brother." Li Yang and Chen Xi both nodded.

Although they were a little tired that morning, they felt it was much more fulfilling than their previous workdays.

They are usually exhausted, both physically and mentally, when they go to the emergency room.

Just then, a middle-aged man in a blue coat strode to the door of the consultation room and blocked Zhou Cheng, who was about to get up and leave.

The man stretched out his hands, blocking Zhou Cheng's way.

"Doctor, you can't leave! I've been waiting all morning, and I haven't finished my appointment yet."

Zhou Cheng stopped and glanced at the man.

The man had a rosy complexion, steady breathing, and a loud voice, showing no signs of the anxiety or pain of an acute illness patient.

This type of patient does not actually meet the criteria for being admitted to the emergency department.

Zhou Cheng frowned and asked, "Did you register for the morning appointment? And it's past closing time now. Dr. Wang, who's taking over the shift, is in the next consultation room. You can go see him."

The man quickly shook his head: "I'm already inside, and I've really been waiting for a long time. There's a long queue over there too."

"But I've already finished get off work. I leave at the normal time," Zhou Cheng said curiously. "Besides, there are doctors available right now. The next doctor is next door; you can go see him directly."

Zhou Cheng ignored the man, took off his white coat, and prepared to leave.

"You have to show it to me first, and you can't leave work until you've seen it!"

"How can you leave work before you've finished seeing all your patients? You have absolutely no medical ethics!"

However, the man in front of him became increasingly agitated, and his voice grew louder and louder.

The triage nurse immediately came in and reminded them, "An emergency room doctor is already seeing patients next door. You can go to the examination room next door."

"I don't care about any successor doctor!" the man retorted, his attitude becoming increasingly arrogant. "I'm here for you, and you have to see me today!"

"I've been waiting here for ages, and you just leave like that? Don't you care about your patients? Is this the medical ethics of your hospital?"

Li Yang and Chen Xi had just finished packing their notebooks when they saw this scene and were both stunned.

In their minds, doctors usually compromise when patients try to stop them, even after they've finished their shift, and few would directly refuse when faced with accusations of "medical ethics."

Both of them subconsciously looked at Zhou Cheng, thinking that he would patiently explain or choose to stay, just like he had done with the difficult family members before.

Zhou Cheng simply smiled faintly, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.

He bypassed the man's outstretched hand, his tone calm yet undeniably firm: "First, all appointments for the morning have already been booked. You didn't register, and you're not within my scope of service."

"Secondly, it's after get off work hours now, and I have the right to a reasonable rest."

"Third, there are on-call doctors in the emergency room who can handle your problem perfectly well."

After saying that, he ignored the man and walked straight to the door. As he passed Li Yang and Chen Xi, he reminded them, "Let's go, hurry up and get off work, or the food in the cafeteria will get cold."

The man was enraged that Zhou Cheng would be so disrespectful and completely ignore his obstruction.

He took two steps after him, watching Zhou Cheng's retreating figure as he walked towards the next consultation room, his face flushed with anger.

Immediately afterwards, he pulled out his phone, unlocked the screen, turned on the short video recording function, pointed the camera at Zhou Cheng's back, and while rapidly making a voiceover, he accused Zhou Cheng in front of the camera.

"Everyone, come quick! The doctors in the emergency room at the First Municipal Hospital have absolutely no medical ethics!"

"The patient was in a hurry to leave before finishing their appointment, and we couldn't stop them!"

"They have absolutely no regard for the patients' safety; all they care about is eating and resting! How can a doctor like that deserve to wear a white coat!"

As he filmed, he followed Zhou Cheng's direction, his accusations growing louder and louder, attracting the attention of the remaining patients and medical staff in the corridor.

Some people stopped to watch, some took out their phones to film, and others whispered among themselves.

Li Yang and Chen Xi stood at the door of the consultation room, stunned for a few seconds.

Chen Xi subconsciously tugged at Li Yang's sleeve and whispered, "Are we just going to leave like this? Isn't that a bit inappropriate? What if he films it and posts it online? That might have a bad influence, right?"

"Sigh, I don't know what to do either." Li Yang, standing to the side, also frowned, his mind filled with confusion.

However, Senior Brother Zhou is right. That person doesn't seem to be in an emergency, and it's already past closing time. There's a doctor on duty to take over, so there's no need for Senior Brother Zhou to stay.

Even so, he was still somewhat worried, since being smeared by a patient in a video would greatly damage a doctor's reputation.

At this moment, Zhou Cheng, without any hesitation, strode away from the emergency room.

As Zhou Cheng passed by the emergency room, he ran into Fang Hang, who was about to leave work.

Fang Hang asked curiously, "Junior brother, why was it so noisy outside just now? It sounded like someone was talking about you. What happened?"

"It's nothing, senior. It was just a patient who hadn't registered. He wouldn't let me leave work on time and even filmed a video to smear me," Zhou Cheng explained calmly.

Hearing this, Fang Hang felt a little worried: "Is everything alright? Why don't you go and check on them? If the patient complains, you'll have to explain for ages, which will ruin your mood."

Zhou Cheng smiled and said, "It's alright, let's go eat. We have a bunch of patients to deal with this afternoon, don't let irrelevant people affect your mood."

Zhou Cheng knew perfectly well that his actions were entirely in accordance with hospital regulations and did not violate any treatment principles.

He didn't care about the patient's defamatory videos at all; they might even be helpful to him!

Fang Hang didn't try to stop Zhou Cheng when he heard him say that, but he did look in the direction of the emergency room.

You can still faintly hear the noise coming from over there.

……

In the corridor.

The man continued to complain into his phone, becoming increasingly agitated, even embellishing the story by fabricating accusations that the doctor had a "bad attitude and shoved the patient."

Many patients and their families, unaware of the truth, also joined in, siding with the man and beginning to accuse the hospital staff.

"I'm telling you all, never come to this hospital! The doctors there have no medical ethics!"

"I've been waiting all morning, but the doctor left immediately after his shift without even looking back!"

"I'm feeling palpitations and chest tightness right now. What if I have a heart attack if I delay treatment?"

To Zhou Cheng's surprise, the man also had a certain number of followers on short video platforms, and the videos were filled with strong emotions, so the matter quickly went viral online.
