Chapter 294: 【294】So many bosses actually came. Chapter 294: 【294】So many bosses actually came. “I’m on the third shift tonight,” Cao Yong replied to her, while turning his head to instruct his junior brother, “Do the check.”
Senior Brother Huang was there. Xie Wanying realized with a start, only then noticing the crowd of people standing around.
Caught by her surprised gaze, Huang Zhilei took out a penlight to check the patient’s pupils, while chuckling resignedly, “I should have known, to this little junior sister, when she’s saving someone, everyone else in the world might as well be air.”
At the head of the bed, Huang Zhilei was assessing the extent of the patient’s head injuries. On the other side, Zhou Junpeng, who had come down with Fu Xinheng, asked a nurse to open the pericardiocentesis kit and also donned sterile gloves to assist Fu Xinheng with the procedure. After a successful pericardiocentesis, a catheter typically needs to be left in place to allow for fluid to be drawn in case of emergency.
During the procedure, Zhou Junpeng recognized the accuracy of her puncture site and his gaze involuntarily swept over her face again, “Honestly, even I would hesitate to perform such an emergency puncture, yet she actually succeeded…”
Meanwhile, another doctor, with gloved hands, was examining the patient’s abdominal cavity and the state of the visceral organs.
Xie Wanying’s eyes glanced at the profile of this doctor.
Sensing her bewildered gaze, he replied with a twinge of exasperation in the corner of his mouth, “What, you don’t recognize me? Weren’t you the one who called me?”
At the sound of that voice, Xie Wanying remembered, “Senior Gao—Teacher Gao—”
“Just calling me Senior is fine,” Gao Zhaocheng told her, then asked, “This is the patient?”
“Where is the patient’s family?” a group of doctors who were taking over the case asked, since the patient’s condition obviously required immediate communication with the family and emergency surgery.
“It’s Dr. Luo—” Xie Wanying hesitated, aware that some truths might be hard to expose publicly on someone’s behalf.
To her surprise, Luo Yanfen suddenly revealed it herself, “He’s the dad of my ex-boyfriend.”
Such a complicated connection? The veteran clinicians were momentarily stunned after hearing this, casting their eyes toward Luo Yanfen who had spoken.
Zhou Junpeng raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t it a relative of a doctor from our hospital?”
The nurse’s phone call to inform the superiors was made with a notebook covering her face, “I didn’t hear clearly earlier and didn’t understand the situation, my apologies~”
“Who called orthopedics down? Is it no longer necessary? Did I make a wasted trip?” Listening to this smoothly confident male voice, the others turned around.
Chang Jiawei, who had just walked in, caught sight of a familiar figure of an old classmate and called out, “Hey, how come you’re down here too?”
Now an old classmate who was on the third shift should have been heading home, not rushing to the emergency room. If they had to show up, they would drive directly to the hospital and head to the operating room to assist. Unlike him, sometimes on the second shift or even the first, working in the wards meant he had to head down to ER.
Chang Jiawei, coming to a stop, then noticed that both Cao Yong and Gao Zhaocheng from General Surgery Department Two were on the scene. He blinked and asked, “What kind of patient is this?”
It was rare for the technical experts to gather . The patient was likely quite serious for the specialists to rush down for emergency care.
To this, Doctor Kim hurried to clarify, “Their rushing down was in vain; it was all thanks to that girl’s life-saving puncture.”
Chang Jiawei’s gaze then rested on Xie Wanying’s face, “Ah, it’s her again?”
“Dr. Luo, how are you? Should we contact your ex directly?” Doctor Kim expressed concern for the patient’s family member, given that the relationship seemed too complicated to easily define who was the patient’s family.
At that moment, Ah Tao’s mother stood up, seeing her husband seemingly saved, and her frantic mind regained clarity. Hearing Doctor Kim’s words, she shouted, “What ex-boyfriend? My son is her current boyfriend!”
