Healing Doctor

Chapter 588 Making a wedding dress for someone else?

This was just a side story.

The subsequent morning handover and ward rounds proceeded as usual. Lin Jiu remained silent, following Director Li Ming like a junior clinical doctor.

Lin Jiu's performance in the subsequent medical records and other aspects was also quite ordinary.

She neither displayed ignorance like Zhao Mengmeng nor stole the limelight like Ji Xiang.

His presence is not strong; in fact, it could be said that his presence is extremely weak.

If it weren't for the production team constantly using external force to turn the camera lens back, he probably wouldn't have even appeared on screen a few times.

The viewers in front of the screen were completely unaware of this.

Watching Lin Jiuze on the show, you won't see the characteristics of someone who's barely noticed.

"This person looks quite ordinary." Director Liu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hehe, Dazhi, do you really think so?" Director Bai asked.

"At least for now, it looks quite ordinary."

"Qin Chu made excellent arrangements, sending Lin Jiuze to the interventional radiology department. My understanding is that since Lin Jiuze's teacher has a good relationship with Qin Chu, they probably both mainly work in interventional radiology."

"He can play the most important role here."

"Interventional surgery, better than Xiao Ji?! That's impossible, absolutely impossible," Director Liu said disdainfully.

"You overestimate Xiao Ji," Director Bai said. "There are so many heroes in the world, and Ji Xiang is just a greenhorn who has just started out."

"I don't believe it!" Director Liu said.

……

The program has only about 3 minutes of boring moments, which simply summarizes and concludes a doctor's daily life.

These routines had already been covered in previous episodes, so they didn't take up too much time.

However, one detail made Director Liu's hands go cold.

Director Li of the Interventional Radiology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital has changed his attitude towards Lin Jiuze somewhat.

Before entering the operating room, Director Li still maintained the airs of a senior director of the First Affiliated Hospital. His attitude towards Lin Jiu was neither polite nor respectful enough for the program, but rather distant and estranged.

Unlike when he met Ji Xiang, he wasn't as enthusiastic or close. It was obvious that Director Li knew that Qin Chu's figure was faintly visible behind Lin Jiuze.

But after the surgery, Director Li looked at Lin Jiuzhe with a hint of awe.

Although he always seemed to forget Lin Jiuze, the flicker in his eyes each time he looked at her clearly revealed his inner thoughts.

"Won't the surgery be broadcast?" Director Liu asked.

"Let's not broadcast it," Director Bai said. "Ji Xiang had surgery in the interventional radiology department before. He had a chronic liver cancer surgery during the day, and the production team doesn't want to repeat it."

Director Liu was slightly disappointed.

He wanted to see just how powerful Lin Jiuze's surgery really was.

However, the program did not show any similar footage; only a slight change in the attitude of Director Li from the interventional department was captured in a fleeting glimpse.

After the surgery, the resident of the interventional radiology department explained to Lin Jiu how to write medical records.

As a professor hired by Massachusetts General Hospital, Lin Jiu did not resist or show any displeasure; he simply listened quietly.

He has an exceptional learning ability and quickly adapted to the First Affiliated Hospital's operating system, diligently writing medical records just like an intern.

The scene shifts, and Ji Xiang appears.

He was also busy, treating a patient who was vomiting blood.

The medical record is very simple. The patient was transferred from the gastroenterology department because he started vomiting blood after drinking a lot of alcohol and inducing vomiting, which suggests that there is damage to his stomach.

If the bleeding does not stop, gastrointestinal surgery will be required for exploratory laparotomy. Hemostasis treatment is currently underway, and the patient's vital signs are being closely monitored.

Seeing this, Director Bai smiled.

Ji Xiang is really busy. He's only been at the First Affiliated Hospital for a few days and he's already become very close to the staff there.

"Old Bai, what's on your mind?" Director Liu asked, noticing the strange smile on Director Bai's face.

"Two things," Director Bai said. "Once, a classmate of mine came to visit me, but he drank too much. I took him to the hospital to have his stomach pumped, and after several hours of this, we were about to take him back to his hotel. But he was still somewhat conscious, and he used his arms and legs to brace himself against the car door and absolutely refused to get in."

"what!"

"He kept saying I wasn't going back, that I needed naloxone and I needed to rehydrate."

"Pfft." Director Liu chuckled. "That must take a lot of experience."

"They gave us naloxone, 500 ml of glucose, and added vitamin C." Director Bai shook his head helplessly. "In the end, we had no choice but to stay in the hospital, and the two of us squeezed into one bed to sleep at night."

"Anything else?" Director Liu asked.

There are countless stories about drunkards in the hospital, but Director Liu just wanted to gossip a bit.

Although Lin Jiu looked completely harmless, Director Liu subconsciously felt that he was Ji Xiang's biggest threat.

Director Liu even had a strange suspicion in his mind—that Ji Xiang was doing someone else's favor.

The show's initial popularity was generated by Ji Xiang, but with the appearance of Lin Jiuze, this expert from Massachusetts General Hospital will rise to prominence by stepping on Ji Xiang.

This idea made Director Liu very unhappy.

Director Bai seemed to share a similar tension, and the two chatted to ease their anxieties.

"Another time, the manufacturer invited me to a karaoke bar," Director Bai said.

"Wow, you've been there before!"

Men, after all, have to go to karaoke bars to make a living. But Director Liu knew Lao Bai; he'd rather spend the whole night at an internet cafe than go to a place like a karaoke bar.

"There's nothing we can do about it, that's just how the underworld is," Director Bai said calmly. "The factory manager brought a few girls, and then they plied them with beer, red wine, and white wine."

"I think two of the girls are not doing well, I'm afraid something might happen."

"What? Want to be a protector of the flower?" Director Liu looked at Section Chief Bai with a smile.

"I was just worried about taking two disheveled girls to the hospital for stomach pumping in the middle of the night, reeking of alcohol. I wonder what the hospital would say the next day."

"And then?" Director Liu asked, "What did you say to persuade them?"

"I was just an extra. There were a few big shots with me, and I couldn't say a word. Even if I did, no one would listen," Director Bai said calmly. "I secretly requested 'The Internationale'."

"The Internationale?"

"Hey." Director Bai chuckled, "Didn't you see? When the powerful strains of The Internationale came from the karaoke room, those big shots instantly sobered up, and the whole drinking session became utterly tasteless."

"..." Director Liu paused for a moment.

His age is a few years different from that of the Internationale, but the feelings of the bigwigs in their fifties and sixties about the Internationale are completely different.

Old Bai is a real genius; he actually came up with such an idea.

"The party ended quickly, and no one dared to investigate who specifically chose 'The Internationale'," Director Bai smiled slightly. "It's a karaoke bar, after all; there can't be any surveillance cameras, right? Even if there were, it's no big deal if I accidentally said it."

"sharp!"

Director Liu gave a compliment.

During their casual conversation, Dr. Miao, the head of the gastrointestinal surgery department, suddenly shouted, "Dr. Ji Xiang, prepare for resuscitation!"
