As he pondered, Zheng Ren's phone suddenly rang.
It was from the emergency ward, not the emergency department. Zheng Ren frowned and picked up the phone.
"Chief Zheng, come back quickly. Bad news!" Lu Tianran's voice came through the phone.
Uh … Why is it that there's no peace every day?
Although he had expected it to happen in the emergency department, Zheng Ren's mind was focused on eradicating and curing Zheng Yunxia's liver malignant tumor.
A second after the call connected, he ran as fast as he could.
"What happened?"
"The smoking old man who pretended to be sick was injured," Lu Tianran said anxiously.
Zheng Ren's mind buzzed.
The old man in his eighties had been placed in the emergency ward because he was afraid something would happen to him in the emergency observation room.
In the emergency ward … F * ck, how could there be a fracture?
He was even beaten up. Who was so ignorant? Was he missing a father?
After hanging up, Zheng Ren sprinted.
Professor Rudolf Wagner was in the middle of contacting his patient to come to Sea City for surgery. When he saw Zheng Ren running, he asked in surprise, "Boss, another emergency?"
Zheng Ren could not be bothered with him. The most important thing now was to find out what was going on. If there were any signs of trouble, he had to stop it as soon as possible.
It took him only a minute to get back from the five-minute walk.
The corridor was full of people. Zheng Ren parted the crowd and squeezed into the room where the old man was.
Zheng Ren was stunned when he saw the scene in the room.
An old woman with a wrinkled face and a hunched back was standing on the ground with a cane in her hand. She was shouting at the old man in a dialect that Zheng Ren did not understand.
"What's going on?" Zheng Ren asked Lu Tianran in a low voice.
Lu Tianran hid in a corner, unsure if he should stop the fight or not. When he saw Zheng Ren, he breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "Old Chief Physician Pan and Chang Yue have been communicating with the patient and his family for three days straight. In the end, the old man admitted that he's fine and wants to be discharged."
Wasn't that good?
"He's discharged today and the paperwork has been completed. My family was packing up when the old man's wife came. " The expression on Lu Tianran's face was very strange. He wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. "His wife asked why he didn't go home. She asked if there was a little slut outside."
"…" Zheng Ren was speechless.
You're already so old, yet you're still on guard? The old man looked healthy, but he was already in his eighties.
Even if he wanted to, he wouldn't be able to.
"The old man said something back, but I didn't understand. Anyway, the old lady picked up her walking stick and broke the old man's forearm. "
Zheng Ren glanced at the old man. His left cartilage was fractured.
What the hell was all this fuss about?
The old man finally had a reason to stay in the hospital. However, he had to stay in the Orthopedics Department instead of the emergency ward.
He was in his eighties. Even if he had to undergo surgery, it would be a little difficult.
He would most likely need to rest for a period of time in a cast.
He had suffered … Zheng Ren sighed and asked, "Has the patient left the observation room?"
Lu Tianran had been working in the inpatient department, so he was not used to the emergency department. The old man should have been in the emergency observation room downstairs. It was not considered a formal hospitalization, and the cases were much simpler.
The reason why he was moved to the emergency ward upstairs was that Zheng Ren was worried that it would be too chaotic downstairs and affect the old man's rest.
Under such circumstances, leaving the hospital was considered leaving the observation room, not being discharged.
"Yes, yes, he left the observation room."
Whether he left the observation room or not had a lot to do with Sea City General Hospital and the patient.
If he did not leave the observation room, Sea City General Hospital would have a certain degree of responsibility for the patient's fracture. When the time came, all kinds of things would be especially chaotic.
If he met an unreasonable person, the lawsuit could take three to five years.
Although there were lawyers in the medical administration division, and their job was to accompany the patient in the lawsuit, the doctors could not stand it.
If something happened while he was not in the hospital for observation, Zheng Ren did not know whether it would be a civil or criminal case if the family members pestered him. Anyway, it was the old couple in the family who were at odds.
However, Sea City General Hospital still had a certain degree of responsibility. After all, it was in the ward of Sea City General Hospital. However, this way, the responsibility was much lighter, and anything could be said.
"Who's in charge of the family?" Zheng Ren looked around and asked.
The old lady frowned and said, "I'm in charge. Why?"
Zheng Ren shuddered.
If Xie Yiren asked him to quit smoking many years later, he would not be able to, and then …
Zheng Ren trembled when he thought of the identity.
He shook his head and threw these messy thoughts out of his mind. Zheng Ren smiled and said, "Auntie, don't be angry. If you get angry again, your body will be damaged."
"This old bastard even learned to f * cking pretend to be sick!" The old lady glared at the old man who was holding his left arm on the hospital bed, wanting to cry out in pain but not daring to do so.
He was full of energy and did not look like he was in his eighties at all.
Zheng Ren did not dare to provoke the old man, nor did he dare to provoke the old lady. They were the same age, but the old lady looked hale and hearty now and could even break the old man's bones. However, if she really got emotional and had a cerebral infarction or a cerebral hemorrhage …
"Auntie, look at you. I told you not to get emotional." Chang Yue rushed over from behind Zheng Ren. It was lunchtime and Chang Yue was not around. She rushed back when she received the call.
Zheng Ren was relieved when he saw Chang Yue.
When the old lady saw Chang Yue, her eyes became much gentler and she said, "Daughter, tell this old bastard not to stay at home and take care of his great-grandson. Instead, he came to the hospital to pretend to be sick!"
Chang Yue coaxed the old lady out of the ward.
Zheng Ren quickly found the patient's sons and asked them to go to the emergency department to give the old man a checkup before sending him to the orthopedics department.
When they found out that the old man's bones were really fractured, his sons and daughters all looked worried.
What was going on? The old couple quarreled, especially with such a strong mother. As children, it was difficult for them to handle the quarrel.
The family was more reasonable, so Zheng Ren was relieved and began to contact the orthopedics department.
He comforted the family and said that the old man's fracture did not need surgery. He just needed to rest for a period of time.
In any case, he just said something nice. What else could he do?
When Old Chief Physician Pan rushed over, panting, the matter had already been dealt with.
When the old lady heard that the old man had broken his bones, she was also terrified. Although she was still muttering words like 'old coffin' and 'faking it', it was obvious from her expression and attitude that she was afraid.
There was no need to persuade the old couple to fight. However, this time, the fight was a little too much and the people involved were very old.
After sending the old man to the orthopedics department and filing the case with the medical administration division, Zheng Ren finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The emergency department was really not a place for humans.
