Chapter 281: Chapter 270: Entrustment
"I also believe that the medical staff on the nineteenth floor are very concerned about Dan Qing’s condition and that they take meticulous care of him. However, now that a problem has occurred, we need to identify the issue instead of concealing it with their past goodwill towards Dan Qing during this incident!" At this moment, Chen Feng did not back down at all. The struggle between the two was already well-known in the hospital, and it was obvious that the reason was on Xiao Lin’s side, while Liang Tianze was merely relying on Yan University’s First Affiliated Hospital’s previous kindness towards Dan Qing.
Having spoken to this extent, Liang Tianze knew that continuing to argue was futile. He said angrily, "I’m not dealing with this anymore. Do as you wish!" After saying this, he turned and walked away.
The other medical staff looked at each other in bewilderment. Liang Tianze and Chen Feng’s quarrels were no news at Yan University’s First Affiliated Hospital, but not many had actually seen them argue face to face. Only the hospital’s higher-ups had the opportunity to witness their disputes. But now, it was obvious that in this argument, Liang Tianze had lost.
With Liang Tianze gone, the Internal Medicine Director Xu Bin glanced at Chen Feng and Xiao Lin and spoke in a deep voice, "Dr. Xiao, if something is found, does it mean it was caused internally by our hospital?"
"Each case should be analyzed specifically. Maybe the person brewing the herbal medicine missed the right timing, or the heat wasn’t sufficient. The intricacies of herbal medicine are far more complex and difficult than Western medicine, which is one of the main reasons why traditional medicine has not become widespread." Xiao Lin refrained from making any definitive statements about the herbal medicine incident.
With the situation diffused and Liang Tianze already far gone, Xu Bin naturally wouldn’t stubbornly hold his ground. Besides, even if he had such a mind, he would need to have the capability to back it up.
"Alright, if there’s anything else, let me know. I have some other matters to attend to, so I won’t stay here!" Xu Bin said, and without looking back, he left. Compared to Liang Tianze’s angry departure, Xu Bin left with more dignity.
With both Liang Tianze and Xu Bin gone, Wang Fuming found himself in the most awkward position since he was invited by Liang Tianze. Leaving would seem inappropriate, staying even more so. Privately, he was Liang Tianze’s guest, but with Liang Tianze gone, was it suitable for him to remain? Officially, even though he was invited by Liang Tianze, the accounts were handled by Yan University’s First Affiliated Hospital. Should he leave before understanding the patient’s situation? It would go against his medical ethics.
While Wang Fuming was torn, Xiao Lin smiled at him and said, "Professor Wang, the upcoming matters probably need your attention. Dan Qing’s kidney condition seems to have deteriorated, and I’m not well-versed in this area, so I need your expertise!"
Seeing Xiao Lin’s friendly demeanor, Wang Fuming felt somewhat flattered. Xiao Lin had always been courteous to him, and hearing this, Wang Fuming felt much less conflicted. He nodded and said, "Alright, no problem. Shall I go in and take a look?" Despite Xiao Lin’s polite manner, it was evident that Xiao Lin held absolute authority here. Reflecting on how the hospital director from Yan University’s First Affiliated Hospital treated Xiao Lin with warmth and respect, it clearly wasn’t just an elder’s attitude towards a junior but rather a subordinate’s respect for a superior.
From this, it was evident that Xiao Lin was not merely a doctor, especially such a young one.
"Director Chen, I’ll leave the laboratory tests to you!" Xiao Lin said to Chen Feng.
"No problem!" Chen Feng replied with a smile. Having already publicly confronted Liang Tianze, what was a small task like this?
Subsequently, Xiao Lin led Elder Qin alongside Professor Wang Fuming into the operating room, while Chen Feng took Xiao Tang to the laboratory. Some of the medical staff dispersed, while others waited at the operating room entrance.
Wang Fuming was quite accomplished in kidney research. Observing Dan Qing’s complexion and comparing the data, he scrutinized the kidney images displayed on the screen, furrowed his brows, and said, "The situation isn’t too bad. It might have been caused by the previous cardiac arrest. Now that the heart rate issue is resolved, some rest should suffice."
Xiao Lin was completely relieved. He had already reached a similar judgment regarding Dan Qing’s renal condition. However, given his limited academic knowledge in the field, he invited Wang Fuming for a second opinion. Moreover, future kidney replacement for Dan Qing would require Wang Fuming’s involvement, and Xiao Lin knew he might not have the time to stay in Yanjing. Having a fallout with Liang Tianze didn’t mean he should offend everyone, which was why he refrained from sarcastic remarks towards Xu Bin earlier.
"Professor Wang, Elder Qin, to be frank, I have to leave Yanjing tomorrow. Dan Qing’s condition can only be entrusted to you both!" Xiao Lin said with a solemn expression, addressing Wang Fuming and Elder Qin sincerely.
Both were shocked, and Elder Qin immediately asked, "Dr. Xiao, you understand the patient’s condition best. If you’re not around and there’s the slightest error, we don’t have your capability!" Elder Qin was genuinely impressed with Xiao Lin’s medical skills. Knowing the grave danger Dan Qing had faced earlier and her quick recovery given her condition, Xiao Lin’s expertise was undeniable.
"I’m going to Jingliang!" Xiao Lin did not hide from the two. Since he was entrusting them, there was no need to conceal it. Anyway, concerning the outbreak in Jingliang Province, a little inquiry would reveal it to anyone interested.
Upon hearing the mention of Jingliang, both Wang Fuming and Elder Qin’s expressions changed instantly. They immediately understood why Xiao Lin needed to go to Jingliang Province. Furthermore, they grasped why Hospital Director Sun Yifei earlier referred to Xiao Lin as his leader. There must have been significant developments concerning Jingliang Province’s outbreak.
"Go without worry. We’ll take care of Dan Qing’s condition and do our utmost to help her recover!" Elder Qin assured him earnestly.
"As long as Elder Qin can get Dan Qing ready for surgery, I pledge to do my utmost to ensure a successful kidney transplant!" Over these days, Wang Fuming had observed Liang Tianze’s petty actions against Xiao Lin. Even as the deputy director of Yan University’s First Affiliated Hospital, he seemed powerless against a minor college hospital doctor, often leaving in disgrace. Naturally, he understood that Xiao Lin was not just an ordinary doctor, given the hospital director Sun Yifei’s attitude towards him. Hence, he had no reason to oppose Xiao Lin, especially since success in this endeavor would grant him greater credit than anything bestowed by Liang Tianze. It was certainly worth it.
"I trust you both. However, there’s another matter I need to entrust to you, especially Professor Wang!" Xiao Lin pondered for a while before speaking.
