"Doctors, should we get back to it? I can’t be left like this forever, can I?"
The proctology doctors were still admiring his work when the patient from the Northeast, who was lying prone, spoke up.
"Haha, we’re right on it. Since you have two fistulas, let’s move on to the next one," Liu Banxia laughed hurriedly.
Every little bit helps, right? Over here, it’s like a static monster-farming spot. The patient’s satisfaction influences the rewards as well.
The demonstration was already over, so the rest was going to be a breeze. Debrident, applying dication, applying dressings, securing with adhesive tape, and done.
DING! You’ve received 10 Experience Points, 15 Skill Proficiency Points in Dressing Change, and 10 Skill Proficiency Points in Diagnostics.
Looking at the rewards given by the system, Liu Banxia was quite satisfied. The monsters I’m farming now are probably around my own level. If I were doing regular dressing changes in the Ergency Departnt, I probably wouldn’t even get more than 5 EXP.
This ti, I didn’t get any skill proficiency for Anal Fistula Ligation. It’s probably because I only tightened the rubber band today and skipped that procedural step, so the system classified it as a regular dressing change.
Though he hadn’t eaten yet, Liu Banxia was full of energy. Farming at a fixed spot was aweso! Even if there were no other skill rewards, just these were quite profitable.
"Liu, you have an exceptional touch. Guan Wei, please prepare so dishes. Let’s not make Liu here work on an empty stomach," Director Jiang spoke after a while.
"Director Jiang, you don’t need to trouble yourself. Are there snacks or sothing in our departnt? After I finish the dressing changes, I can grab a bite. I’m used to this from the Ergency Departnt. Sotis, I only took a bite of my instant noodles, and they beca a soggy lump by the ti I was done with everything," Liu Banxia chuckled, his hands still busy.
"That won’t do. Eating won’t be that rushed here," Director Jiang shook his head.
"Liu, we have a deal: you have to co here at least once a day. Otherwise, I won’t get to see enough. With your technique and speed, I have to learn from you."
DING! Jiang Tao’s Favorability Quest has been upgraded to an Open-ended Quest. The reward will be decided based on the completion level.
Penalty: Lose 500 EXP if completion level is below 50%. Lose 1,000 EXP, and usage of Dreamland and System Shop will be barred for 5 days if completion level is below 30%. No quests for 30 days and a lock-up of 3 hours if the completion level is negative.
Liu Banxia, who had been quite rry, instantly lost his composure. If it weren’t for the boost to his ntal and Agility attributes, that sudden jolt might have made him accidentally knock the patient out.
The system is getting quite playful, even offering quests that upgrade automatically. At the very least, I have to avoid causing Director Jiang to dislike , or else I could really end up with a negative value.
There were more patients in the afternoon than in the morning. So new patients with fallen rubber bands didn’t need to be admitted; they just needed their dressing changed once a day.
Liu Banxia’s presence completely surprised these new patients. As seasoned patients, they knew very well what changing dressings felt like.
DING! Dressing Change Teaching Quest Complete.
You have gained 200 Experience Points and 500 Skill Proficiency Points in Dressing Change.
Jiang Tao’s Favorability Quest completion at 20%; you have gained 300 Experience Points.
After the last male patient’s dressing change was complete, the system issued a prompt.
Liu Banxia blinked. He was a little disappointed initially, as there were only 35 patients this ti. After all, there were female doctors in the Proctology Departnt, so they were in charge of the female patients.
However, seeing the update that the open-ended quest was 20% complete, he found this kind of task interesting. 100% wasn’t necessarily the upper limit. The kind of relationship he could maintain with Director Jiang would definitely affect the final reward.
While following Director Jiang to the office, he glanced at his attribute panel to see the gains from this monster-grind fest.

Liu Banxia was quite satisfied. Though it wasn’t as gratifying as the morning "monster-killing" spree, this was pretty decent too. Altogether, it only took an hour—much better than idling in the Ergency Departnt.
"Wow, you finished up so quickly? I thought I would be able to watch a few more cases." Guan Wei ca out of the elevator with food just as Liu Banxia was approaching the office door.
"Brother Guan, don’t flatter . I have to be on duty in the Ergency Departnt tonight. Why don’t you co over early tomorrow? We can do the dressing changes together," Liu Banxia quickly suggested.
Even though Guan Wei was just running errands for Director Jiang, not just anyone could do this job. This clearly proved their close relationship, and Guan Wei wouldn’t gossip outside.
"Learning knows no seniority; the most skilled leads the way. Even if I practice this dressing change technique for a year or two, I’m afraid I still wouldn’t reach your level," Guan Wei sighed.
"Admitting your flaws is the first step to improvent. You do the operation this afternoon. I’ll have a peaceful al with Liu," said Director Jiang with a chuckle.
"Okay, I’ll set the food out," Guan Wei said and started to arrange the dishes on the coffee table in the break room.
"Ah, this is so typical of the Proctology Departnt! Diced chicken with chili peppers, fish heads with chopped chili... You eat the spiciest food and then need the best proctology services, right?" Liu Banxia joked.
"Doctor Liu, you’re too modest. I asked Doctor Shi; just like the director, you can handle spicy food too," Guan Wei said, opening Liu Banxia’s lunchbox.
This made Liu Banxia feel quite honored. "Brother Guan, just call Liu. I’d be too embarrassed to even pick up my chopsticks if you address so formally."
"Liu, tell honestly, what are your real thoughts? Do you really want to stay in General Surgery? If so, it will be very difficult for you to secure a permanent position in the hospital, unless Director Zhou himself steps forward," Director Jiang said, waving his hand to stop their polite exchange.
"Director Jiang, I won’t hide it from you. I do want to stay in General Surgery, but I also know I fall far short of the requirents. My relationship with Director Qin is also quite awkward. It would be impossible for to stay even in our hospital’s Ergency Departnt," Liu Banxia said with a bitter smile.
"I knew your heart was set on that, but I’m not in a rush. We’ll see how things turn out. At the very least, I can keep a spot open for you here as a fallback," Director Jiang nodded.
"Thank you, Director Jiang," Liu Banxia said sincerely.
"Actually, there’s still so hope for you," Director Jiang suddenly changed the topic.
"Yesterday, Chief Director Zhou lost his temper and criticized our hospital’s poor training program. He specifically criticized Director Zhou and also ntioned the situation in the Ergency Departnt."
Liu Banxia was startled. Could this incident be because of ?
"The Ergency Departnt is sowhat chaotic under Old Qin’s managent. He’s rely coasting until retirent. Moreover, our hospital’s Ergency Departnt has always been subpar. It sounds like Chief Director Zhou intends to thoroughly overhaul the Ergency Departnt."
"If the hospital genuinely intends to overhaul the Ergency Departnt, this will be your opportunity. So, you must perform exceptionally well during this ti."
Liu Banxia was stunned. This was genuinely excellent news, and a real opportunity for him to stay at Second Affiliated Hospital.
"Director Jiang, let this soup represent wine. Thank you for your guidance," Liu Banxia said respectfully, having helped ladle the soup.
"Whether you can make it or not still depends on your performance. You’ll only have a chance if you truly impress Director Zhou," Director Jiang said with a smile.
"But I can see your fundantals are very solid, and your performance in surgery today was also excellent. You do have a chance. Sotis, a person’s luck also plays a big part."
Liu Banxia didn’t dare to say more. Director Jiang was clearly speaking from the heart, and saying too much might not be wise.
