After his first al of the day, Yan Feifan went to the general administration building. He knocked and entered the outer office of the secretary’s suite.
Wu Peng, who received him, wore a smile as warm as a spring breeze. He told Yan Feifan that the secretary was busy with so important matters and asked him to wait a mont.
Yan Feifan didn’t mind. He sat on the sofa in the outer office, sipping the tea Wu Peng brought him and waiting patiently.
He had been busy all night, having only slept a total of just over five hours since the previous evening. On top of that, he had just eaten a full al.
As the wait dragged on, Yan Feifan started to doze off. He leaned his head against the back of the sofa and fell asleep again...
Seeing this, Wu Peng froze for a second. He used the remote to turn off the air conditioner in the outer office, then knocked gently before entering the inner office.
ng Huaxin, who was reading docunts behind her desk, looked up at Wu Peng with displeasure. "Is he getting impatient already? It hasn’t been that long."
Wu Peng shook his head. "He’s not impatient, he’s fallen asleep."
"Secretary, it seems Mr. Yan is truly exhausted."
"Asleep?"
Skeptical, ng Huaxin stood up and walked into the outer office.
She saw Yan Feifan slouched deep into the sofa, his legs stretched out and his head lolling against the backrest. His mouth was slightly agape, and he was letting out soft snores.
After observing him for a mont, ng Huaxin sighed softly. "That young man is a doctor through and through."
"Go ahead and wake him up..."
A few minutes later, a fully awake Yan Feifan t the new Party Secretary of the hospital in the reception area of the inner office.
Slicked-back hair, a high forehead, a broad nose, and slightly full lips, combined with a stern, unsmiling expression, gave her a solemn air.
’She definitely has the air of a leader!’
Yan Feifan comnted internally just as ng Huaxin began to speak. "Xiaoyan, I need to explain the rumors about your dismissal."
Yan Feifan replied politely, "Mrs. ng, I’m already aware of the situation. It was a vlogger who maliciously edited clips together to get views."
ng Huaxin gave a slight smile. "Since you already know the cause, I won’t waste my breath."
After a pause, she continued slowly, "Xiaoyan, the root cause of that exposé video is the conflict between the sheer number of patients and the limits of your own ti and energy."
"As a hospital that serves the people, we must address the patients’ urgent needs and find a way to resolve this conflict."
"Xiaoyan, would it be possible for you to slow down your other work for now and focus more of your ti and energy on the intraspinal tumor surgeries?"
"Also..."
ng Huaxin added persuasively, "You also take a day off every two weeks to perform freelance surgery at Jingcheng Bai Ning Hospital."
"Xiaoyan, because of the major reversal in this incident, the online comnts about you are now almost entirely positive."
"If people found out that you earn a high fee for these freelance surgeries, I’m worried public opinion might turn against you again."
Yan Feifan explained, "Mrs. ng, regarding the freelance work at Baining Hospital, I won’t deny that money is a factor."
"However, there are more important reasons."
"Mrs. ng, I have a cooperation agreent with Baining dical Technology Company. The advanced surgical robot they are developing will be equipped with my puncture and injection technique."
"My going to Baining Hospital to perform freelance surgery serves two purposes. First, it’s convenient for them to collect data to build a surgical model. Second, it builds hype and publicity, which will help with the launch and promotion of the surgical robot later on."
ng Huaxin seed to understand and asked, "Then when can this surgical robot be officially launched and put into practical use?"
Yan Feifan replied, "Mr. Yu of Baining Technology said it will probably take another year."
ng Huaxin nodded, and Yan Feifan continued, "As for slowing down my other work?"
"The two research projects I’m involved in, penile reconstruction and in-vivo nerve cultivation, can’t easily be put aside."
"Besides, designing five tumor puncture and injection plans every two weeks is already a significant workload."
"On top of that, I need to set aside a considerable amount of ti to study the latest papers and monographs in the dical field."
"Studying is also my top priority."
ng Huaxin was silent for a mont, then nodded. "Indeed. You’re still so young; you can’t let your progress stop with this puncture and injection technique."
A faint smile appeared on her face as she continued, "I eagerly await the day you develop new techniques to heal the sick and save lives, bringing even greater glory to our Affiliated Hospital."
ng Huaxin then stated, "Xiaoyan, if you encounter any difficulties or problems, whether in your work or personal life, let us know imdiately."
"The hospital administration will do everything in its power to solve them for you..."
After this relatively pleasant conversation, Yan Feifan left the general administration building. It was already past six in the evening.
His workday was over.
He headed to Mrs. Qin’s dical research lab in the ergency departnt, where he found Yu Suye cleaning a workbench.
When Yu Suye saw Yan Feifan, she spread her arms, pouted, and declared playfully, "Darling, co here! Let pamper you!"
Yan Feifan shot her a look and urged, "Hurry up and finish cleaning so we can go ho. I don’t know why, but I feel especially tired today."
Yu Suye said with a touch of sympathy, "Well, playing at Water World yesterday was pretty tiring too!"
"And then you perford surgery all night. Of course you’re exhausted."
Yu Suye quickened her pace, saying, "Let’s not go straight ho. I’ll take you for a massage so you can properly relax."
Yan Feifan chuckled. "Don’t you know how to give massages?"
Yu Suye huffed lightly. "My massages aren’t very professional. More importantly, I’ve been working all day too, you know. I’m tired!"
"I feel so bad for you, but you don’t feel bad for at all."
"Yan Feifan, I’m getting unhappy! I’m about to get mad."
Yan Feifan rolled his eyes. "Stop being so lodramatic. It’s not cute at all."
"Oh, what about that basketball player Mrs. Qin ntioned?"
Yu Suye shot Yan Feifan an indignant glare before answering, "His dical records were sent over. He’s coming to the hospital for an examination on Wednesday."
"Hey, Feifan, you’ve suddenly beco a huge celebrity. Any thoughts on that?"
Yan Feifan shook his head. "No thoughts. I’m not a star. This so-called fa is useless to ."
Yu Suye giggled. "How is it useless?"
"I heard that donations have been flooding in like snowflakes, including several large ones."
"I just don’t know how the hospital will handle the money. Will it be your research fund, or a public charity fund?"
Yan Feifan said nonchalantly, "We’ll see what the hospital decides..."
About ten minutes later, the perfect couple left the research lab and went downstairs to the main hall of the ergency departnt.
Just as they reached the entrance of the hall, paradics rushed in, pushing a young, unconscious patient on a gurney.
Yan Feifan glanced over and stopped in his tracks.
He recognized the unconscious young man...
