Chapter 870: Chapter 413: Red-Hot Favorites, Quarreling Sweethearts About to Clash Again

Just saved Director Bi’s life and earned a reward of 100 health points.

Simply by observing his appearance, diagnosed the cause of the patient’s illness, earning him an additional reward of 100 health points.

Although it’s not particularly much, it’s still quite a considerable reward.

After eating, he rarely had some time to spare, so he went to the orthopedic inpatient department for a stroll. Mainly to connect with colleagues and support Ou Qinglan.

"Dr. Li is here! Xiaou, spend some good time with Dr. Li, let Gao Yang handle whatever tasks there are."

Professor Wu saw Li Jingsheng and was particularly happy.

Unlike other director doctors, Professor Wu is considered the weakest among all directors. It’s even questionable whether his second group can survive in the fierce competition.

But with Li Jingsheng’s help, it’s different.

It will be filled with infinite possibilities.

The bone tumor patient last time, with Li Jingsheng’s help, underwent surgery very smoothly.

The surgery had minimal bleeding, exceptional wound healing, and even infection control benefited.

The greatest risk of infection mainly comes from the long-term unhealed wound.

The skin is the strongest barrier against external bacteria and viruses. Once skin injury occurs, the risk of infection increases tenfold or hundredfold.

The excellence of the patient’s wound healing depends on multiple factors.

Among them are the patient’s physique, whether medication is accurate, reasonable, timely, and the remaining factors are almost all related to the surgeon’s surgical skills.

Incision, debridement, suturing, any of the three aspects can affect the wound’s healing.

Whether the incision is smooth and avoids important blood vessels is very important. If the incision is uneven, even the best surgeon would shake their head.

On the contrary, if the incision is smooth, alignment during suturing is very easy.

Even an intern can sew it properly.

Injuring important blood vessels might seem unaffected at the wound level, but it actually concerns the nutrient supply to the wound.

Theoretically, the less damage to blood vessels, the better.

If a relatively large blood vessel is cut, and its end supplies the wound area, it’s hard for the wound to heal even with perfect suturing.

Debridement needs no further explanation.

In case of a poorly cut wound, excellent debridement can still serve as a remedy.

As for suturing, it’s crucial as it directly determines the healing grade of the wound.

Professor Wu’s group almost lacks a skilled surgeon.

Even he himself is of mediocre level.

As long as there’s surgical assistance from Li Jingsheng, success rate stability is basically assured.

To be more precise, the quality of the surgery is well assured.

Surgeries conducted by Li Jingsheng now mainly possess multiple advantages: minimal blood loss, significantly reducing harm to the patient.

Blood is an essence of the body, containing core nutritional elements.

Though blood donation stations and doctors strive to promote donating no more than 200 milliliters of blood at once doesn’t harm and can invigorate blood, it’s advised that people with weak physiques or who are slim should avoid donating.

Blood is not equivalent to ordinary body fluids, and definitely not water.

Although blood and body fluids can be interchanged, or say blood is part of body fluid, blood recovery post-loss can be lengthy.

Significant blood loss may take half a year to fully recover.

Common symptoms include feeling cold, cold extremities, dizziness, fatigue, pale lips, among others.

Li Jingsheng’s surgeries, besides minimal blood loss, are characterized by fast surgical speed, quick wound healing, and low infection risk.

Professor Wu undoubtedly sincerely wishes to win over such a super helper.

Since Ou Qinglan is a doctor in the second group, and Li Jingsheng is extremely fond of her. Professor Wu, being a smart old fox, increases training on Ou Qinglan and seeks Li Jingsheng’s help for difficult surgeries.

Simply let Ou Qinglan participate.

With Professor Wu’s instructions, Ou Qinglan naturally feels delighted. Having someone to share her workload makes her very happy.

Taking it easy is surely enjoyable.

Even more so when she can be lazy openly, enhancing her sense of superiority.

Girls generally have a small vanity.

This special treatment genuinely makes her happy for her boyfriend.

Throughout the orthopedic department, among many young doctors, only her boyfriend holds such status.

Before Professor Wu left, Zhong Hu also rushed to the big office upon hearing Li Jingsheng’s arrival.

"Xiaoli, haven’t seen you in a while. Do you have time today to date Xiaou?"

All dozen doctors in the office were stunned.

Director Zhong usually has a bad temper, often maintaining a stern and scary face. Everyone is quite afraid of him.

While other director doctors all have at least one or two capable medical assistants as their left and right hands, Zhong Hu has none that are reliable. There’s definitely a reason behind this.

Being too hot-tempered, everyone is scared and naturally keeps a distance.

Too clear water has no fish.

People too stern without accommodating others won’t retain anyone around and easily become solitary.

Zhong Hu has excellent medical skills, but his temperament makes many people keep their distance.

At this moment, Zhong Hu has abandoned his usual serious and fierce image and instead squeezes out a smile, joking with Li Jingsheng like old friends.

This naturally makes other doctors somewhat dumbfounded.

"I was injured recently, which reduced the efficiency of my bone-setting work a lot, but the patients are just too enthusiastic. There’s no choice but to use my off time to work overtime and deal with those seeking consultations."

Li Jingsheng explained.

"You are the most conscientious doctor I’ve seen. Truly treating patients like family. Honestly, I can’t do that."

Zhong Hu didn’t shy away, and in front of so many people, he openly admitted that he couldn’t do it.

Doctors who truly treat patients like family are rare, though not nonexistent.

Perhaps a medical student, full of zeal and passion, enters a job position and, true to the oath taken upon entering medical school, treats patients like family. However, soon they are wounded all over by the patients and their families.

At this point, the mindset of the medical student quietly changes.

Thinking they were na?ve and foolish.

Ultimately, they slowly learn to protect themselves.

Then they become what the patients and their families see, thinking the doctors are cold and unfeeling.

In fact, the doctors are still doctors, still maintaining a compassionate heart, but just a bit more cautious, unwilling to be hurt by patients and their families. That’s all.

"Director Zhong, don’t put me on a pedestal like that; I’m not that noble. Although you say you can’t do it, I see that when diagnosing and treating patients, you always think about saving their treatment costs, trying every way to help patients achieve the best treatment effect. Isn’t that compassion?"

"Haha, I didn’t expect you to notice these trivial things. There’s a patient with a very peculiar bone disease over at my place; their arms and legs keep elongating. Can you come over and take a look?"

There is a reason why Zhong Hu is so friendly with Li Jingsheng.

Many treatments still depend on Li Jingsheng.

And he feels Li Jingsheng’s personality matches his taste.

Interaction between people indeed sometimes depends on fate.

Zhong Hu gets along with Li Jingsheng and Chen Anchen but feels everything is wrong with Professor Wu.

When the two meet, it seems they never greet each other.

If they do, they end up like dogs fighting, attacking each other for a while.

"Director Zhong, shouldn’t there be some order here? Dr. Li is busy helping Group Two research difficult cases, and you calling him away—what is this about?"

Professor Wu refuses to accept this.

He told Ou Qinglan to accompany Li Jingsheng nicely.

In truth, he is very aware that Ou Qinglan and Li Jingsheng have lunch dates, which now essentially become Li Jingsheng helping her diagnose various difficult cases.

Of course, these cases were intentionally given to Ou Qinglan by Professor Wu.

With his astuteness, Professor Wu naturally knows that these cases are beyond Ou Qinglan’s capability. But he isn’t worried at all.

Because behind Ou Qinglan stands Li Jingsheng.

"Hmph, don’t think that I don’t know, your Group Two calls Xiaoli for help every day. He’s not your exclusive aid; he belongs to our entire Orthopedic Department. If you’re unhappy about this, let’s take it to Director Hua’s office and talk it over."

Zhong Hu glared, confronting Professor Wu head-on.

People are like this.

When someone doesn’t look pleasant, everything about them seems unpleasant.

"Don’t use those grand arguments to pressure people; our Group Two isn’t part of the Orthopedic Department, huh? Dr. Li helping our Group Two is also contributing to the development of the entire Orthopedic Department’s business, isn’t it?"

Professor Wu pushed up his glasses, delivering a line that left Zhong Hu speechless.

"You, you’re just being unreasonable. Xiaoli is our whole Orthopedic Department’s senior aid, and you’re having him spend all his time helping Group Two. What’s this about? Hmm, you’re just lucky to have taken in Dr. Ou as a student."

"That’s right, I’m just lucky. Are you envious or jealous? If you have the skills, take one in too!"

Professor Wu is truly a bit proud of this matter.

Initially, he took in Ou Qinglan as a student partly because she was pretty, and her theory grades were up to standards, so he took her in.

Previously, he was fully intent on pursuing this pretty female student.

Later, when Li Jingsheng stepped in to protect the flower, Professor Wu realized he couldn’t beat Li Jingsheng, nor dared to provoke him, so he immediately backed down.

Unexpectedly, the benefits brought by Ou Qinglan were continuous.

She started dating Li Jingsheng, and then Li Jingsheng rose strongly, with his medical skills becoming increasingly impressive.

Up until now, he has become a super asset in the Orthopedic Department.

Professor Wu, being Ou Qinglan’s superior doctor and teacher, has consequently gained significant benefits. Any difficult cases or surgical challenges are handled by Li Jingsheng.

"Wearing glasses to look refined, or what? No skills at all, relying entirely on students to prop you up. I despise you."

"Who are you accusing of having no skills?"

"I’m talking about you. If you dare to challenge me again, I’ll beat you up, believe it or not?"

Zhong Hu began rolling up his sleeves.

Already in their sixties, yet their temper is still so fiery.

Star-crossed enemies likely refer to these two.

"Dear Directors, please calm down. I will help with your difficult cases. It’s inherently my interest. So, Qinglan, send the cases you have to my phone, and after work, I’ll help you handle them together. As for Director Zhong’s case, since I have a bit of time now, I’ll go take a look. But I must preface, I might not be able to diagnose it."

Li Jingsheng is encountering such a case of adult hands and feet elongating for the first time.
