Zheng Ren glanced at his watch. It had been fifteen minutes. Professor Rudolf Wagner was still applying pressure to stop the bleeding, as if he had lost track of time.
"Lil Fugui!" Zheng Ren shouted.
"Hah?" the professor replied after he recovered from the shock.
Doctor Zhou's body swayed. It was already shocking enough that he was a rich boy with a rustic aura.
When the professor spoke in a standard Northeastern dialect, which was rarely heard in the Northeast, Doctor Zhou finally broke down.
What the f * ck …
"It's time. Apply pressure bandage and let Brother Zhou send the patient back." Xie Yiren appeared in front of the professor with a pressure bandage.
"Brother Zhou, I won't be sending him back." Zheng Ren smiled and said, "It's normal to remove the pressure bandage for 24 hours, but you'll be performing a vertebral resection tomorrow. You'll have to listen to the professor from Imperial Capital for the details."
Doctor Zhou was still immersed in the blond, blue-eyed Professor Rudolf's caw. He could not pull himself out of it.
He nodded absentmindedly when he heard Zheng Ren's words.
"By the way, Chief Zheng, I'm going to pick up Professor Tian tomorrow. I'll treat you to a meal after I'm done with the surgery and postoperative care, "Doctor Zhou said." Thank you for your help. "
"You're welcome." Zheng Ren smiled.
Doctor Zhou helped carry the patient onto the stretcher trolley. With a wave of his hand, the orthopedic surgeons wheeled the patient out.
The operating theater finally quieted down a little.
"Lil Fugui, you should go back to the hotel later," Zheng Ren said when Professor Rudolf was done with his work.
"Boss, you have to call me if there's an emergency interventional surgery tonight." The professor was still reluctant to leave.
If the doctors in Xinglin Garden were in a state of shock, the professor was the kind of person who understood the true essence of interventional surgery.
Professor Rudolf felt like he had returned to being an intern. His body was full of energy, and the emergency department did not seem so annoying anymore.
"That's your personal time, Lil Fugui." Zheng Ren waved his hand.
The name 'Lil Fugui' was quite catchy when he said it.
It was a good name.
"No, boss, to hell with your damn private time." Professor Rudolf made a firm gesture and said, "I'm your assistant now. If there's a surgery, please call me."
"Got it." After sending the patient away, Xie Yiren and the circulating nurse were busy cleaning up the garbage in the operating theater and disinfecting it. He thought about it and hesitated a few times before making up his mind.
He went to the changing room with the professor and chased him away. Then, he took out his phone and texted Xie Yiren.
[What's for dinner? Any suggestions?]
Zheng Ren did not receive a reply. He should be busy on the other side. He held his phone tightly in his hand and put it in the pocket of his white coat. He was afraid that he would not hear the WeChat ringtone, so he used his hand to feel the vibration of his phone.
Zheng Ren sat quietly in the changing room and waited.
Should he treat Xie Yiren to a movie today?
This is a problem.
Ever since Su Yun had told him that joke, Zheng Ren had been haunted by the movie theater, as if he had been possessed by a demon.
He himself hadn't been to many movies, and he couldn't even remember which side the door of the cinema was facing, let alone going to the cinema with the girl he liked.
Just the thought of it made his palms sweat.
Zheng Ren's mind was blank, like a soldier on standby.
His phone rang and vibrated three times, startling Zheng Ren who was waiting for a reply.
He picked up his phone excitedly and nervously, only to be disappointed to find that the person who had sent him the message was Su Yun.
[Boss, Yang Lili has entered the polyuria phase. Her urine output has exceeded 100 milliliters per hour for three consecutive hours.]
Yes, this was good news. Entering the polyuria phase meant that the kidney had recovered to a certain extent after reperfusion.
As long as there was no urinary collapse, the wound could be healed over time.
[Is she conscious?]
Zheng Ren replied.
[She can open her eyes, but her consciousness is hazy. We can reduce the amount of tranquilizer tomorrow, but that's for tomorrow. I'm going home to sleep. There's an emergency tonight, so don't call me. I can't take it anymore.]
[Go.]
The image of Su Yun sitting in the ICU floated in front of Zheng Ren's eyes, his black hair fluttering listlessly in front of his forehead.
He smiled.
The chances of a successful resuscitation gradually increased. Su Yun, that guy, really worked hard.
As he thought about it, Xie Yiren's WeChat message popped up.
[There's a new Cantonese restaurant recently. Apparently, the chef is from Shunde. Do you want to try it?]
Zheng Ren did not know that the most authentic Cantonese cuisine originated from Shunde. For someone who did not want to eat unless he was hungry, bland and healthy Cantonese cuisine was not attractive at all.
However, eating with Little Yiren … No, no matter what they did, he would be happy.
After a moment of hesitation, Zheng Ren's expression became firm and determined.
[Shall we go to the movies after dinner?]
Zheng Ren pressed the send button and felt his heart beating so hard that it felt like it could jump out of his mediastinum at any moment.
Even his sternum and ribs could not stop the surging heartbeat.
The high-energy phosphate bonds of ATP cracked and snapped, providing energy. Zheng Ren seemed to be able to hear the sounds of the microscopic world clearly.
He was really nervous. What if Little Yiren refused?
It seemed that eating food was more attractive to her than anything else.
Why didn't Su Yun teach him what to say when he was eating?
Zheng Ren's mind was filled with all kinds of messy thoughts, and he did not receive a reply from Xie Yiren on his phone.
As time passed, Zheng Ren became more and more afraid.
That feeling of loss and gain …
As a … single dog, he had never felt it before.
[I took a look at the movie. The most recent one is only an hour away. I don't seem to have time to eat. Let's watch the movie first.]
Xie Yiren's reply made Zheng Ren feel relieved.
However, there seemed to be many movies playing at the same time. What did the most recent one mean?
The question flashed in Zheng Ren's mind.
Why was he thinking so much? What was Xie Yiren saying?
[I'm in the changing room. Let me know when you can leave.]
[Aren't you going to do ward rounds?]
[I checked before the surgery. The patient in the ICU just received a message from Su Yun saying that he has entered the polyuria stage and has regained consciousness.]
[That's great. Give me five minutes.]
[No rush.]
Zheng Ren held his phone, his heart full of happiness.
After a successful surgery, he could go to the movies with Little Yiren. Life was really beautiful.
He completely forgot about buying the movie tickets.
