Chapter 228: Chapter 229: Stop, Chen the Dog!
[Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained a Perfect-level Chest Imaging Skill.]
Chen Cang nodded, this really was a good skill.
The only downside was that it was only for the chest.
Too short.
If you could extend it a bit upward, you could add a head imaging check, wouldn’t that be great?
And if you could extend it a bit downward, you could add an abdominal imaging check, which wouldn’t be bad either.
Forget it…
One shouldn’t be too greedy.
…
Early the next morning, Chen Cang got up early, feeling refreshed and headed towards the emergency room.
Just as he entered the main gate, he saw Xiao Lin already preparing and getting busy.
Chen Cang smiled, “Xiao Lin, did you work the night shift last night?”
Xiao Lin snorted coldly, “Hmph!”
Chen Cang was taken aback. What was that about?
Chen Cang thought about it. Well, women have those days each month, be understanding!
Then he headed towards the office.
At this moment, Chang Lina heard the noise, came running out with a syringe in hand, “Chen Cang, you did it on purpose, didn’t you!”
“See if I don’t teach you a lesson today!”
Chen Cang was stunned, “Wait, Lina, hold on. Let me die knowing why!”
Chang Lina snorted, “Die knowing why? Fine! Come here!”
Chen Cang shook his head, “Put down your weapon first!”
At this point, since it wasn’t time to handover shifts yet, there were few patients at 7 o’clock, so everyone was prepping for the morning’s work.
Just as Chen Cang was speaking!
Suddenly a group of nurses ran out holding blood pressure cuffs, IV devices, thermometers, and blood glucose monitors… all charging out!
“Chen Dog, stop right there!”
“Chen Dog, don’t you move!”
Chen Cang was utterly confused. What on earth did I do?
To incur such wrath from gods and men alike!
Nurse head Tian Xianglan also hurried over, pointing at Chen Cang from a distance, “Chen Cang! Come here, I promise I won’t beat you to death!”
Chen Cang was even more dumbfounded.
Did I sleepwalk last night?
And offend all of you in some way?
At this thought, Chen Cang became somewhat uneasy—I’ve never had this problem before!
Chen Cang with a look of grievance, “Nurse head, I feel like there might be some misunderstanding about me!”
Tian Xianglan sneered, “Misunderstanding? What a misunderstanding. Come on, see for yourself, where is the misunderstanding?”
As she spoke, Tian Xianglan picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and showed Chen Cang the chat interface, “Look, what did you send?”
“My child already struggles with eating, and after seeing the WeChat you sent last night, cried the whole night, refusing to eat. This morning, woke up and even told me they had a nightmare! Look at the mess you’ve made!”
Chen Cang was stunned, “That’s not right, nurse head, I don’t have a habit of private chatting with everyone!”
The nurse behind snorted coldly, “Don’t have it!? Take a good look at your chat history!”
“We were eating dinner just fine last night until you sent those messages one by one. Do you think one person alone couldn’t handle it?”
“Exactly! Chen Cang, we still have the dinner you paid for, so you better go eat it obediently!”
“Chen Dog, finish your meal, and you will be spared…”
…
Seeing that everyone was saying the same thing, Chen Cang, half-believing and half-doubting, picked up his phone and carefully looked through the chat history.
As he scrolled through, he was instantly dumbfounded!
What the hell?
When did I send them messages?
I actually sent them all photos of lung parasites?
Chen Cang was at a loss.
“I… I… My phone is broken. I really didn’t send anything!”
Everyone: “Do you think we believe you?”
Chen Cang: …
Chen Cang felt very wronged, truly wronged. I didn’t do anything, so why did it send messages to them?
After much apologizing and treating everyone to a cup of milk tea, he finally smoothed things over, but Chen Cang was still puzzled.
“`
Could it be that I’ve seen a ghost?
Right!
Today is the fifteenth of July, Ghost Festival…
At that thought, Chen Cang couldn’t help shivering.
What the hell, this can’t be happening?
At that thought, Chen Cang suddenly realized that despite it being broad daylight, he could feel a chill.
This scared Chen Cang out of his wits.
Could it be that there was something unclean in the provincial People’s Hospital’s operating room?
Chen Cang frowned.
Today was a busy day filled with surgeries, but they were all common procedures, dealing with patients with acute appendicitis, cholecystitis, gallstone disease.
After performing several surgeries, Chen Cang remembered the small incision award.
But he was curious, why hadn’t those people learned to do small incisions yet?
How can they be so slow on the uptake!
He hadn’t won a single Lucky Bag for himself.
Thinking about this, Chen Cang felt somewhat dejected.
During a surgery, Chen Cang suddenly remembered the incident from the previous night and couldn’t resist asking the nurse, “Yuan Yuan, have you ever seen anything unclean in the operating room?”
Kong Yuanyuan was stunned, “Dr. Chen… what do you mean?”
Chen Cang pondered for a moment, “I mean, like ghosts and such…”
Kong Yuanyuan fell silent. After a while, she slowly said, “I think so…”
With that, Chen Cang felt like the temperature in the temperature-controlled operating room had dropped several degrees in an instant.
Wang Yong was in the middle of an appendectomy when he suddenly said, “I remember some time ago, didn’t they say someone saw that old man who jumped off a building in the carport?”
Kong Yuanyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, “Actually, the operating room is heavy with Yin energy.”
“Plus, people often die in the operating room!”
“Last year during the New Year, I was on night shift by myself because Sister Ling and Sister Hui both didn’t come. I thought it’d be fine alone, but that night I felt as if there was something in the operating room. It seemed like I kept seeing shadows drifting about in the middle of the night.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Cang awkwardly smiled, “Surely not?”
Kong Yuanyuan shook her head, “I didn’t sleep a wink that night, staying up and chatting with Dr. Liu from anesthesiology the whole time.”
“The next day I went to the temple and got an amulet.”
“Dr. Chen, how should I put it, with some things, if you say they exist, they do, if you say they don’t, perhaps they don’t. But us girls are more timid, so… it’s better to believe they’re real!”
Her words left Chen Cang doubting.
…
…
At noon, a little girl ran into the emergency department, holding a pink lunch box and hurriedly made her way into the office.
After coming in, she looked left and right but didn’t find Chen Cang.
At this moment, Wang Qian suddenly smiled and said, “Hey there, Tiantian, are you looking for Chen Cang?”
Little Tiantian glanced at Wang Qian, and her big eyes twinkling, she nodded, “Yes!”
The nurses in the emergency department laughed, “Tiantian, you’re here to see your hubby again!”
Tiantian’s face turned red, but she said nothing.
Just as Chen Cang returned to the emergency department, he heard someone calling out, “Chen Cang, your little sweetheart is here.”
Chen Cang was taken aback, then glanced at the office door, “Tiantian? What are you doing here, where are your parents?”
At this moment, at the entrance of the emergency department, Xu Liang and his wife walked in, “Dr. Chen, sorry to trouble you. Tiantian insisted on seeing you. We thought it was also time to change her dressing, so we brought her along.”
Chen Cang smiled, taken with the cute little one.
He patted Tiantian’s head, “Let’s go, I’ll change your dressing first.”
Like a little mistress, Tiantian shook her head, “Eat first, it’s getting cold, mom made dumplings.”
Tiantian displayed an attitude that she wouldn’t leave without eating, and Chen Cang, feeling helplessly amused, sat down and finished the dumplings.
As usual, Tiantian watched Chen Cang eat his meal, wiped his mouth for him, then tilted her cheek, waiting for Chen Cang to give her a kiss.
Only then did she obediently go to have her dressing changed.
After all, she was a child and recovered quite fast.
Finally, Tiantian left reluctantly, holding her lunch box and grievously said, “Chen Cang, I will come see you again, sob sob…”
She burst into tears as soon as she left the door.
This prompted laughter from everyone around.
Watching Tiantian’s adorable manner, Chen Cang suddenly wanted a child of his own.
Yet, it seemed he didn’t even have a girlfriend yet…
