Chapter 226: Chapter 227: Bai Qiuenâs Mask
Everyone suddenly realized that Chen Cang was no longer beside the operating table.
Where did he go?
Turning around, they saw that Chen Cang had already:
taken off his gloves,
removed his mask,
picked up his phone,
and was taking pictures.
Chen Cang was also curious about what this worm inside the cyst looked like now that it had burst.
The cyst had burst, and Chen Cang saw inside⦠well, it was fascinating, and quite appetite-stirring, a bit like the wide rice noodles you find in hot pot, also somewhat resembling soaked rice paper⦠Hmm, those bits around it, anyone with trypophobia would absolutely love it! Eh? Itâs even pink in color!
This was Chen Cangâs first time seeing such a thing; naturally, he found it fresh and began snapping photos with his phone, click-click-click.
The doctor next to him couldnât help but ask, âDr. Chen, what are you doing?â
Chen Cang smiled, âItâs not every day you see a hydatid cyst in the lung. Shouldnât I take a photo to cherish the moment?â
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed it made sense.
They took out their phones and started taking photos en masse.
The nurse who had finished cleaning up looked at Chen Cang, finding him more and more exciting the more she watched.
This Dr. Chen was truly impressive!
Handsome and skilled, with a pair of skilled hands⦠Art!
Nurse A, watching Chen Cang, couldnât help but pick up her phone to take photos as well, âDr. Chen is so compassionate!â
Nurse B nodded, âYeah, Dr. Chen must really like small animals, right?â
Nurse C added, âThey say people who like small animals are tender to their wives.â
The head nurse chimed in, âThatâs right! Little Chen must have a lot of girls who like him!â
Everyone was stunned, was there such logic?
We had no idea!
Chen Cang just awkwardly smiled, feeling a bit strange being praised by so many people, and a bunch of women at that⦠emmmmm, but quite enjoyed it?
Meanwhile, Jing Ranâs scalp tingled as he watched the group of nurses, his eyelids twitching. Wasnât this flattery a bit too much?
Just because you like echinococcus means you like small animals?
Could you at least be a bit more heartfelt with your flattery?
Fangirling is fangirling⦠donât be like this, please.
But Jing Ran knew the importance of an operating roomâs nurses. As the team with the strongest influence in the surgical field, maintaining good relations with them, becoming one of them! It was crucial for the promotion and propagation of his future image, staying in line with the operating room nurses was especially important for his career development!
With this in mind, Jing Ran forced a smile, âRight! Itâs quite cute, Iâll take a photo too!â
As he spoke, he picked up his phone and began taking pictures.
Nurse A was taken aback, âDr. Jing⦠your taste is so unique, to find this parasite cute!â
Nurse B agreed, âDr. Jing has quite the peculiar taste!â
Nurse C exclaimed, âEek⦠it looks so disgusting.â
The head nurse commented, âDr. Jing is a true thoracic surgery expert, to think heâd take a liking to parasites.â
Jing Ran: â¦
What did I do wrong?
Why must you torment me like this!
Chen Cang takes pictures and heâs considered an animal lover with a big heart, but when I take pictures, I get labeled as a pervert?
Is the difference just because I called it âcuteâ?
Jing Ran was at a loss.
Is there no justice left?
Is there no law of the land!
Iâm a post-doctorate, arenât I? A post-doc at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Fuwai Hospital! Deputy Director of the First Hospital of Dongda, with a promising futureâ¦
Chen Cang is⦠just a first-year grad student brother, alright?
Canât you judge people by their abilities instead of their appearance!
Can being handsome give you free rein to do whatever you want?
Besides, Iâm quite handsome too, right?
As long as Iâm not standing next to Chen Cang, Iâm the Chinese Academyâs male idol.
Jing Ran felt he was developing a bit of a pneumothorax, probably from the irritation.
He felt he couldnât stay here too long; what if his pneumothorax turned into a hemothorax?
Then, if he were to collapse onto a sickbed, it would definitely be Chen Cang performing the surgery on him.
With that thought, Jing Ran felt restless. What if Chen Cang started showing off during the surgery and the nurses were cheering for his handsomeness; could he die from anger?
He sighed.
Heartache.
â¦
â¦
The patient would need to contact his family for further postoperative care, but for the time being, he would be kept at the thoracic surgery department of the Provincial Peopleâs Hospital for further treatment.
The surgery went smoothly, and everyone left the operating room.
Chen Cang had just left the doors of the operating room.
[Ding! By defeating a level 51 Echinococcosis cyst monster of a higher level, youâve gained +2 levels; youâve obtained special equipment: Bai Qiuenâs Mask;]
Chen Cang suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He actually dropped this thing!
It was really quite rare.
Bai Qiuenâs Mask, a purple item.
Chen Cang had originally thought how could a rare monster have such a great drop, but it was pretty rare after all, having dropped Bai Qiuenâs mask from his set.
[Bai Qiuenâs Mask: As an important part of Bai Qiuenâs set, filter +5, defense +5.]
This time, there were no special effects or skills, just two boosts in stats.
The filter boost was easy to understand, but how did a mask add to defense?
Could it beâ¦
Chen Cang suddenly felt that this defense probably had to do with contagion.
After all, the only medical-related defense Chen Cang could think of was infectious diseasesâ¦
Chen Cang wondered if this meant that increasing defense⦠could reduce the chance of getting infected?
Very likely!
If that was really the case, Chen Cang felt that this defense attribute was rather impressive.
At least for the safety of medical workers, it was definitely a good thing.
Pleased as punch, he had finally gotten the third piece of Bai Qiuenâs set; now he could summon Bai Qiuen to possess him.
[Ding! With the three-piece Bai Qiuenâs set, a special skill is triggered: Bai Qiuenâs Possession. Reminder: Bai Qiuen: lv99, a master in the field of cardiovascular surgery, proficient and skilled in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, highly adept at cardiac surgery; after possession, you will get up to 5 hours of possession time, once a month.]
Chen Cang swallowed hard, my goodness, itâs a big shot!
A level 99 big shot, thatâs⦠at the level of a national celebrity doctor, isnât it?
No, itâs almost level 100.
So strong!
But, Bai Qiuen isnât going to take over his body, is he?
Chen Cang shook his head.
Seeing Chen Cang suddenly stop, Jing Ran froze for a moment, then seeing the corners of Chen Cangâs mouth betraying a smirk, he couldnât help but ask.
âDoctor Chen, whatâs wrong?â
Chen Cang shook his head, pulling out his phone, âI just thought of something happy.â
Jing Ran smiled, âOh? Care to share?â
Chen Cang nodded, âItâs nothing much, just thought this Echinococcosis was pretty rare, Iâll send it to my friend to take a look.â
As he spoke, Chen Cang picked up his phone and sent Qin Yue a message:
âHad dinner yet?â
Qin Yue replied instantly, âWhat are you treating me to?â
Chen Cang, âYou wish, I was just asking if youâve eaten.â
Qin Yue, âScram, Iâm having dinner right now, donât wanna talk, I have night shift later!â
Chen Cang, âOh! Youâre eating? Thatâs good, Iâm sending over something nice for you to enjoy with your meal!â
Qin Yue was startled; could it be that Chen Cang was eating something delicious?
This scumbag!
With that thought, Qin Yue sneered, âMy dadâs cooking today!â
Qin Xiaoyuan chuckled as he watched Qin Yue holding her phone and pouting her lips, responding to messages. He couldnât resist saying, âDonât play with your phone during dinner!â
Qin Yue nodded, and at that moment, Chen Cang suddenly sent over a photo. As soon as Qin Yue opened it, she was instantlyâ¦
âHoly shit! You bastardâ¦!â
A cry of âholy shitâ nearly caused Qin Xiaoyuan to tremble with fright!
The piece of pork he had just picked up fell to the ground,
Such a pity!
It was expensive!
Looking at the food in front of her, Qin Yue suddenly didnât have any appetite left.
The bite she had just taken seemed to have a strange taste now!
Hearing Qin Yueâs exclamation, Qin Xiaoyuanâs face darkened as he glared at her, unable to refrain from scolding, âQin Yue, youâre a young lady, what are you doing! Show some manners!â
Qin Yueâs mother also glanced at her, âWhatâs the fuss about now?â
In the middle of speaking, she picked up Qin Yueâs phone and saw an indescribable scene; a feeling of discomfort rose from her stomach, âOh! I need to go to the bathroom.â
This utterly stunned Qin Xiaoyuan, who casually grabbed the phone, and his eyelids began to twitch!
This⦠this⦠what the hell is this?
So disgusting!
Eating dinner here and you send a parasite!
Qin Xiaoyuan had to acknowledge his professionalism, recognizing the parasite at a glance, but⦠recognition aside, this pretty much ruined the meal!
With that, Qin Xiaoyuan felt a tingle of horror as his hard effort in cooking was wrecked by one photo!
Taking a look at the phone, it read: âFrom: Chen Cang!â
