In the special care unit, Yu Yuan looked at the report with a serious face. From time to time, she would glance at the bed.

Chen Xiaowang and his family, who were sitting in front of the bed looked nervously at Yu Yuan as well as the report in her hand.

*Flip flip flip*

Yu Yuan turned the report page by page.

Chen Xiaowang and his family’s hearts thumped loudly against their chests, but if their hearts did not beat… they would be dead.

“Doctor? How is it?” Chen Xiaowang’s father was nervous. He thought that his son’s company was good, but it would be awful if he lost his job because of physical discomfort.

Yu Yuan put away the report, looked up at the Chen family, and said, “The patient can be discharged from the hospital, but my suggestion is that it’s better for him to go home and rest. Do not start work immediately, and absolutely do not work overtime.”

Chen Xiaowang shook his head. “I have to go to work.”

Yu Yuan gave him a final piece of advice. “There is no need to work so hard. As family members, you should also advise him not to. The world can still go on with or without anyone.”

“That’s what I’m afraid of.” Chen Xiaowang sighed.

Father Chen asked, “Can he go to work? Can his body hold up? Doctor?”

“The recovery period of two and a half days is too short.” Yu Yuan paused for a moment before she said, “Short-term work should be possible, but you have to pay attention to your body at all times and still have to rest more.”

Once she said this, Yu Yuan did not say much anymore. In fact, if it were not an experimental project, she should not be saying these things.

Chen Xiaowang naturally nodded again and again. As long as he could go to work, he would even kneel down, so nodding was nothing to him.

Yu Yuan wrote a discharge form and turned around to pass it to Chen Xiaowang.

However, Chen Xiaowang could not even wait for even one more minute. He quickly said, “Dad, go through the formalities, I’ll go to the company to work first. The team is waiting…”

Father Chen unwillingly shook his head. “It’s not like you’re hurrying for reincarnation… Ack, what am I saying…”

Chen Xiaowang could not care more and hurried away. He had not been to work for two and a half days, and who knew how much work he had accumulated. If he did not go sooner, the new tasks for the day would just continue piling up on his already existing workload.

Yu Yuan continued her ward rounds. Today, she deliberately visited Chen Xiaowang first and completed his discharge procedures before proceeding to inspect the other patients.

Ling Ran had just returned recently. He had only performed over twenty hepatectomies even after working overtime. That was the workload for a normal doctor over one or two months. For Ling Ran’s current treatment group, this was nothing. The doctors in charge postponed the postoperative patient’s ward rounds till dawn. As for the preoperative patients, there was no other way to go about it. Ling Ran’s treatment group was not the only group to wake up the preoperative patients at three or four o’clock in the morning, this was something that also happened often in the other departments in Yun Hua Hospital.

At present, Yu Yuan only had ten beds under her charge, and if she counted the extra beds, she usually would not have a number of more than twenty-five beds under her care. It was comparable to other hospital’s ordinary resident doctors, and it was the least among many resident doctors in Ling Ran’s treatment group.

This was also because she was a chief resident. According to Yun Hua Hospital’s system, chief residents always had to perform a large number of operations to improve their skills and prepare to be an attending physician. Correspondingly, the number of beds they were in charge of was reduced. For Ling Ran’s treatment group, that meant ten beds, with a maximum of twenty-five beds, and this was considered light. Yu Yuan was also indeed not busy. As long as the person had no personal life and was living in the hospital, even if they had to care for the full workload of twenty-five beds, they could still fully inspect all patients in their free time.

Yu Yuan did not plan to pursue a personal life now.

Chief residents in any hospital always had no personal life, but Yu Yuan had been tirelessly trying to be a chief resident for several years.

To be honest, if she did not want to be a surgeon from the beginning to the end of her career, Yu Yuan would have long since resigned and put up with the Department of Internal Medicine, which was not only relaxing, but it would also allow her to better use her talents.

The atmosphere in the Department of Internal Medicine was much better than in the Department of Surgery. The Department of Surgery used a master-apprentice model. The senior doctor was the junior doctor’s father, and the only reason why the senior doctors did not deal physical punishment as discipline for the junior doctors in a show of fatherly love was already a sign of the advancement of times and the spark of civilization. But in the Department of Internal Medicine, because one could make progress by reading literature and providing thoughts on case studies, young doctors were far less oppressed than those in the Department of Surgery. Before the implementation of the separation of fees between the prescription of medicine and consultation, the Department of Internal Medicine earned more than the Department of Surgery. In general, medical students five years ago who went to the hospital and chose to join the Department of Surgery were either passionate or stupid if they were not affected by film and television works.

Yu Yuan was both passionate and stupid, so she did want to leave even if she had not had a good life in the Department of Surgery. Even if she was not welcome, she did not want to leave.

When she stepped into the operating area, changed into a surgical gown with thick linen, and felt the slight breeze of the operating theater, Yu Yuan could not help but show a smile, and that smile even resembled a bit like Ling Ran’s.

“Let me see the surgery timetable today.” Yu Yuan looked at the A4 paper attached to the wall, and she constantly weighed the pros and cons of the surgeries listed on the table.

She completed the ward rounds an hour earlier, so she had almost two hours of free time. During this time, she could see other people’s surgery when she did not have any to perform.

At a glance, Yu Yuan saw a small line: simple hemorrhoidectomy.

Yu Yuan then immediately went to see the names of the doctors who would be performing the operation, which were listed in the right column. She saw “Ling Ran” behind it, and “Ma Yanlin” was listed as the first assistant.

Yu Yuan’s eyebrows immediately rose, and as soon as her lower back tensed up, she ran to Operating Theater 4.

*Swish*

Yu Yuan stepped open the operation door vigorously. Before the airtight door was completely opened, she already went in at lightning speed.

“I knew it, Ma Yanlin, are you secretly performing the operation yourself?” Yu Yuan looked at Ling Ran, who stood behind Ma Yanlin with his arms crossed while he watched the operation, and then at Ma Yanlin. Her eyes almost spat fire.

“It’s only surgery, don’t get so worked up.” Ma Yanlin was a little scared. He used the fact that he was standing in the position of a chief surgeon to give himself courage and said, “Doctor Yu, we’ll go back and discuss anything that you want. We’re busy in the operating theater.”

Yu Yuan ignored him. She turned to Ling Ran and said, “Doctor Ling, I also want to learn hemorrhoid surgery!”

“Why do you want to learn hemorrhoid surgery?” Ling Ran gave Yu Yuan a puzzled look. For doctors, hemorrhoid surgery was dirty and had little technical content, and when compared to hepatectomy techniques, there was a huge gap in skill.

To describe it, hemorrhoid surgery was at most the level of a Four Tigers Door Breaker Saber Technique. It could not even be regarded as a branch of the Five Tigers Door Breaker Saber Technique. Hepatectomy was equivalent to the seventy-two ultimate techniques of Shaolin. If learned well, a doctor could conquer the world with it.

However, Yu Yuan’s pursuits were obviously not the technique itself. She saw Ma Yanlin’s actions and said, “I want to do it, Doctor Ling, please teach me.”

Both Ling Ran and Ma Yanlin looked at Yu Yuan.

Ma Yanlin said in displeasure, “It’s only a hemorrhoid surgery, and you still want to learn it?”

Yu Yuan blushed and frowned while she said, “In case I resign, I will need to go to a private hospital.”

“Well, the difficulty of hemorrhoid surgery is not high.” Ling Ran agreed, and from his point of view, Yu Yuan was indeed not suitable for surgery that was too technically difficult.

“I’m going to wash my hands.” Yu Yuan went out at her fastest speed before she came back. She stood beside Ma Yanlin, replacing the position of an unnamed intern, and became Ma Yanlin’s first assistant.

“Ah, there aren’t many patients with this disease, though.” Ma Yanlin sighed.

Yu Yuan snorted and said, “Weren’t all the patients from the company that would only allow its employees two and a half days off diagnosed with hemorrhoids? This one is also the same, right?”

“I am…” The patient who was lying on the operating table replied sullenly.

Yun Hua Hospital was a tertiary Grade A hospital in the region. Even if it was the Colorectal Department, they were also short on ward beds. They would only receive patients with hemorrhoid surgery for a while before they stopped taking them in, then went back to receiving them. The Emergency Department had no other place to get resources for these patients, and normal hemorrhoid patients would not run to the Emergency Department to see a doctor. So Yu Yuan’s guess was absolutely correct with her guess.

Ma Yanlin scoffed. “Only companies that give their employees only two and a half days off would have their employees have such a disease.”

“For hemorrhoid surgery, two and a half days of rest time would not be enough.” Yu Yuan looked at Ma Yanlin with a look of contempt. He was just an authorized houseman, anyway.

I’m working in the mobile terminal field. I’m not too busy lately, so I’m allowed to take annual leave…” The patient tried his best to participate in the conversation.

Yu Yuan acknowledged with an ‘okay’ and suddenly said, “What a coincidence. My phone has been lagging pretty badly lately, can you help me take a look at it? It’s in my left pocket.”

The circulating nurse then took out the mobile phone in Yu Yuan’s left pocket and gave it to the patient lying on the operating table.

The patient looked at the phone and could not help but start pondering.

“You can’t unlock it? Scan my face.” Yu Yuan shoved her face forward.
