Chapter 838: Small Ward Round

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the ward of the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, two pots of devil’s ivy looked like they had sunburn as they stood on the windowsill side by side while they stared at the sky. Their entire bodies were green.

The patient on the hospital bed looked tired. She had dark circles, pale lips, rough face, and sagging face. She looked just like someone who was taken care of carelessly by an unprofessional embalmer.

“Ward round.” A doctor knocked on the door, and he walked into the room.

“Didn’t you just come for a ward round?” Her best friend by the hospital bed was playing with her phone, so she felt slightly angry for her game to be interrupted.

“The chief surgeon decided to come and take a look.” The doctor explained in a low voice, and he stood to the side of the patient.

Young Ling, who laid on the bed, opened her eyes and waited for her best friend’s endless complaints.

The hospital was very boring. She did not want to stay in the hospital, and her best friend did not want to accompany her as well. Now, since a junior doctor came, she let her best friend complain for a while, and she could also relax a little.

Stepping sounds were heard in the room. They did not know how many doctors walked in.

However, her best friend’s complaints never appeared. If it were not for the soft pants, Young Ling would start to wonder whether she had died of myocardial infarction.

She craned her neck and looked at the door of the hospital room.

Young Ling’s neck froze when she saw Ling Ran.

‘What a handsome doctor! Are we sure we’re not filming a movie?

‘Impossible. Even movies will not cast such a handsome actor. If there was one, my best friend group would be discussing it madly, and we’d all book the entire movie theater to watch the movie.’

Zhang Anmin stood by the bed and showed a friendly smile. “Doctor Ling, this is the patient, Li Ling. She has acalculous cholecystitis, has always been in good health, and her age is…”

“Wait!” Li Ling suddenly sat up on the bed, as if she was someone pretending to be dead a moment ago. She shouted loudly, “How could you just state a girl’s age?”

Zhang Anmin was stunned, and he said, “I am stating your medical record to Doctor Ling.”

“That won’t do either.” Li Ling stubbornly shook her head. She combed her hair with her hands, and she talked to her best friend by the side, “Mirror, pass me a mirror.”

Her best friend saw the icky discharge at the corner of her eyes, her dry hair, and her bare face. She felt sorry for her and said, “The mirror is in the washroom.”

“Then, handphone, handphone.” Li Ling was extremely anxious.

A group of doctors calmly looked at Li Ling on the bed, just like how they always looked at patients.

“You need to handle the preoperative discussion with this patient well, and get at least two copies of operation consent forms signed.” Zuo Cidian reminded Zhang Anmin by the side.

Zhang Anmin nodded. “I’ll ask someone to inform her family.”

“You need to check once on your own. When they sign, you must either be on the spot or make them film a video, otherwise, it will not be counted.”

“No problem, the people under me work very well now.” Zhang Anmin looked at Ling Ran as he said, and his forehead was shining.

Zuo Cidian glanced at the door with the corner of his eyes. Squeezed together at the entrance were two to three doctors from the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, who stared into the room strangely.

Zuo Cidian was not nervous, but he wanted to prevent something bad from happening. If only two to three juniors from the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery came to watch when the doctors from the Emergency Medical Center came to the ward in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery for a ward round, this situation was already considered very harmonious.

“Take a look at her biochemical report.” Ling Ran noticed the patient’s bad skin and hair conditions, so he wanted to make another confirmation.

Zhang Anmin stretched his hand backward, then the resident doctor from the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery quickly took out the report in a flurry of motion.

After Zhang Anmin became an associate chief physician, he had some underlings. Although he could yet lead a treatment group independently, he had a line up of doctors under him that could relatively make him be considered to have an independent group.

In the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery were a few remaining doctors who were not bound to He Yuanzheng. They did not hesitate to follow Zhang Anmin.

Being promoted to an attending physician from an associate chief physician might seem to only be a step upward. However, in the hospital environment, it was completely different. If there were any extreme situations, Zhang Anmin could even temporarily take over the department director. If he were lucky, he could even take over the position for two to three years.

For the few young doctors who depended on Zhang Anmin in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, they were considered to have now gained a bottom line to exist. They were probably considered future subordinates who would follow their leader wherever he went, which might be the possible Second Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, although they might be called traitors, they no longer cared about it. From their perspectives, when Ling Ran was able to promote Zhang Anmin to an associate chief physician, his capabilities could already be considered nothing short on amazing.

Ling Ran took the report and read it, while everyone else looked at Ling Ran.

Li Ling, who laid on the bed, and her best friend also stared at Ling Ran.

“We can operate on her, but she’s slightly malnourished.” Ling Ran nodded, thought for a while, and asked again, “I’ll do a physical examination on you, and I will need to touch your belly, may I?”

“Sure.” Li Ling became excited. After Ling Ran wiped alcohol-based hand sanitizer on his hands, she lifted up her top and touched her smooth belly. Then, she pretended to be shy, “My skin might not be good, because I don’t usually take care of my skin.

Her best friend stood by the bed and pouted habitually. Her cute face was the outcome of what she practiced in front of the mirror.

She knew just how much Li Ling valued her waist usually. Since she always went clubbing, others would know the condition of her skin right when they touched her waist regardless of how well she put on makeup. Therefore, Li Liang usually put on a mask on her belly.

This time, if she had not found out about the laparoscopic surgery that would not leave any scar on her, Li Ling would not have gone for a cholecystectomy even if could possibly die of pain.

Compared to that, Li Ling did not bother with the complications like not being able to eat meat with high fat.

Ling Ran quietly performed a stomach physical examination for Li Ling, and he said, “Tell me if you feel pain.”

“Ouch… It hurts slightly.” Li Ling gasped softly.

The young doctors in front of the hospital bed had their facial expressions change, and they changed their facial expressions again when they raised their head and saw Li Ling’s face.

“My… skin… is it too rough?” Li Ling asked Ling Ran.

“No,” Ling Ran answered as usual without changing his facial expression.

Li Ling showed a faint smile.

Lu Wenbin stood slightly further away. He did not look at Li Ling’s belly skin. He only stared at Li Ling’s face and comforted her, “As a doctor, we need to take care of patients from all age groups, including old ladies. Your skin condition is considered good.”

Li Ling’s face fell in a second. If she were in the night club the night before yesterday right now, the guy next to her right then would know how to comfort her right now.

Lu Wenbin showed an honest and humble smile as if he lifted ten 220-pound weights in one go in the gym.

“Arrange her surgery for tomorrow morning.” Ling Ran finished the physical examination, stood up, and used an alcohol-based hand sanitizer to wipe his hands. Then, he said, “Doctor Zhang will be the assistant.”

“Alright.” Zuo Cidian immediately made a note in his notebook. Asking Zhang Anmin to be the assistant meant that the condition of the gallbladder was slightly complicated, and extra attention would need to be provided during nursing care.

“The next patient is in the next room.” Zuo Cidian put away his notebook and gestured for the doctors in front of him to leave.

Zuo Cidian nodded. He was surrounded by the doctors while they left the room in a mighty wave.

Li Ling laid on the bed and showed a nice smile. After a long while, she felt the corners of her eyes itch, and she rubbed her eyes furiously. Then, suddenly, her fingers stopped moving.

Li Ling got up from her bed in a second. She took off the infusion bag and rushed to the washroom.

Her best friend sighed leisurely. She put down her phone, combed her hair by the side of her ears, and closely covered her ears.

A few seconds later, a loud shout from the washroom rose, as if it made an agreement beforehand to the best friend that it will show up later. “Aaaaaahhhhh!!!”
