Healing Doctor

Chapter 600: Being Called a Dog

"Lin Jiuze...he...he..." Qin Chu's face and the arteries in his hands bulged, his blood pressure soared, and he looked like he was about to be taller than himself.

"Boss, calm down, calm down," Ling Tian quickly tried to dissuade him.

Qin Chu had arteriosclerosis, and his blood pressure suddenly spiked. Ling Tian was terrified that his boss would collapse in front of him at any moment.

Ling Tian didn't know whether it was a heart attack or a brain hemorrhage, but he knew that fortunately there had been some prior intervention, so it wasn't presented to the boss in a sudden way.

While Ji Xiang and Lin Jiu were whispering to each other, the boss's expression changed; he had realized something was wrong.

Fortunately, there was this period of time as a buffer. Otherwise, if the transition had been too abrupt and steep, the boss's blood pressure would have suddenly spiked, and he would probably be in the ICU right now.

"This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Qin Chu roared in a deep voice, his expression contorted with rage.

"Boss, don't be angry, something must have gone wrong." Ling Tian took out his phone. "I'll contact Jiu Ze right away."

Qin Chu swayed, and in his daze, he braced himself against the table to avoid falling.

Ling Tian quickly helped Qin Chu sit down and immediately contacted Lin Jiuze.

As before, Lin Jiu did not answer the phone.

Before this, Ling Tian could only assume that Lin Jiuze was aloof and unwilling to answer his calls. However, after watching the program, Ling Tian knew that Lin Jiuze's behavior had definitely changed.

But Lin Jiuze wouldn't answer the phone no matter what, and Ling Tian was worried about his boss, so he could only contact Lin Jiuze's teacher.

A full hour later, Ling Tian's phone rang.

Seeing that Qin Chu had already fallen into a deep sleep, he took his phone and tiptoed out of the director's office to the doctor's office.

It was a video call from Lin Jiuze.

Ling Tian answered the call.

"Ling Tian, ​​what do you want with me?"

In the video, Lin Jiu's face was gloomy, and he no longer had the harmless demeanor he had before. He asked in a stern voice.

"..." Ling Tian was taken aback.

Lin Jiu seemed like a completely different person. Ling Tian wasn't stupid either; he connected the cause and effect and had a sudden thought.

"Junior Brother Jiuze, what happened on your end? Why aren't you answering the phone? I was really worried about you. If it weren't for the good security situation in China, I would have flown over there by now," Ling Tian said with an apologetic smile.

The on-duty doctor in the department was busy, and upon hearing that Director Ling was being scolded, he slunk away with a shrug. He tiptoed away, afraid of making a sound that might attract Ling Tian's attention.

"Junior brother, who is your junior brother? FUCK!" Lin Jiu immediately started cursing.

Ling Tian was stunned. Lin Jiuze shouldn't be so agitated. What happened? He wasn't afraid of his own boss. He had to put on a smile and call him "Junior Brother"... Ling Tian couldn't understand Lin Jiuze's emotional change.

"Ling Tian, ​​you fucking screwed me over!"

"Nine, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"Ling Tian, ​​did you watch the show?"

"Just finished watching it."

"You also perform interventional surgeries. I don't need to say anything more about whether those two micro-guidewires are used well or not." Lin Jiu looked at Ling Tian in the video, his face full of sharpness and resentment.

"I knew Ji Xiang's surgery was good, but I didn't expect it to be this good," Ling Tian said awkwardly.

"Fuck you." Lin Jiu took off his mask, venting his emotions in the simplest and crudest way.

Ling Tian remained silent.

Without Lin Jiu saying anything more, Ling Tian could roughly guess the problem.

"Nine, so... what are you planning to do next?" Ling Tian asked shamelessly.

"Go back to America, damn Ji Xiang, you're all asking for it, don't drag me down with you!" Lin Jiu was extremely agitated, like a ferocious beast from the primordial era.

"..." Ling Tian never expected that Ji Xiang could remove Lin Jiuze's mask and force him to reveal his original form with just one surgery.

Moreover, the powerful Lin Jiu showed no intention of resisting at all; he chose to escape... and harbor resentment.

Ling Tian's vision went black.

What kind of monster have I and my boss provoked?!

"Ling Tian, ​​your skills are terrible. You didn't understand that surgery at all," Lin Jiu said in a deep voice. "For the sake of our past relationship, I'll let bygones be bygones for what you and that old bastard Qin Chu did to me. And I'll give you another piece of advice: don't mess with Ji Xiang. Do you hear me? Don't fucking mess with Ji Xiang again! You're asking for it."

After finishing his rant, Lin Jiu immediately hung up the video call.

Ling Tian held his phone blankly, completely unaware of what the problem was.

……

……

In the hotel, Lin Jiu put down his phone and rubbed his hands vigorously.

With a swishing sound, the temperature of his palms rose, and then he covered his face with them.

A minute later, he removed his hand, and Lin Jiuze's innocent smile reappeared on his face.

He picked up his phone and made a call.

"Teacher, I have given Ling Tian a reply," Lin Jiu said gently and humbly.

"I watched the program. The technique of using two micro-guidewires and the elasticity of the metal to avoid collateral damage caused by the thrombectomy is indeed at least one generation more advanced than the currently popular surgical methods."

An aged voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Teacher, Ji Xiang is very strong, exceptionally strong," Lin Jiu said with a smile. "However, the gap between us isn't so huge as to be insurmountable. I'll go back and study him carefully. Three years... no, two years, and I'll come back!"

"Competitiveness is useless. Now you know that the land of China is full of hidden talents."

"I understand." Lin Jiu smiled innocently and said slowly, "Teacher, I always feel that there's something wrong with Dr. Ji Xiang."

"What's wrong?"

Lin Jiu remained silent.

He could sense that something was wrong with Ji Xiang, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was. Furthermore, there were things he couldn't clearly explain to his teacher; at most, he could only express his feelings.

"Forget it, Qin Chu is getting senile," the old man opposite said calmly. "Come back, there's a consultation over here."

"Oh, what illness?"

"I need your consultation at the Department of Sports Medicine."

"Sports medicine? You want to talk to me?" Lin Jiu asked, puzzled.

"Recently, a player in the European leagues has been making headlines. He suffered a major injury, underwent surgery, and is recovering remarkably well."

Lin Jiu listened quietly.

"The medical team learned about this case after being asked about the new surgical technique, and they conducted a physical examination on the young man and obtained his surgical records."

"Teacher, this involves surgeries from two different disciplines," Lin Jiuze said.

"This young soccer player's knee ligament surgery was performed using a hybrid procedure, so the sports medicine team asked you if it was possible to perform a similar operation."

"Hybrid surgery?" Lin Jiu was taken aback.

"Yes, I've checked, it is indeed a hybrid surgery," the old man said slowly. "I've sent the surgical records to your email; take a look when you have time. As for that young doctor, don't mess with him yet. You have plenty of time; your potential is far greater than his."

"I wasn't careful enough. I thought she was just an intern."
