Chapter 176 - Stay In The Guest House (1/2)

No matter how unexpected the circ.u.mstances were, Feng Xuhui still fulfilled his duty as a professional manager.

Under his guidance, Zheng Ren and Su Yun successfully located Professor Pei’s car.

It was an inconspicuous Hongqi designed between ten to twenty years ago.

Upon spotting Zheng Ren from afar, Professor Pei got out of the car and greeted him, “Little Zheng, over here.”

“Professor Pei, that’s too polite of you.” Zheng Ren quickened his pace, a sign of respect for his elderly comrade.

“You really gave me a troublesome issue to deal with.” Professor Pei smiled in mock outrage.

Zheng Ren responded with an embarra.s.sed smile.

He had met Professor Pei by chance through nothing but professional ties. When he had asked the control tower to contact the professor in a desperate gambit, he was betting on the benevolence of a senior doctor with decades of medical experience.

Sure enough, he had won.

It had been thanks to Professor Pei’s kindness and his… the System’s accurate diagnosis.

“Doctors encounter all kinds of accidents all the time, and we should remain unaffected by common practices in current society and help those in need.” Professor Pei tapped Zheng Ren’s shoulder and smiled earnestly. “How absurd is it that patients can’t be treated outside one’s place of practice?!

“Little Zheng, I’m very satisfied with you.”

Professor Pei was referring to a case from a few years ago where an obstetrician had conducted a delivery on a train, but had been prosecuted by the family after its success, the reason being that a medical pract.i.tioner’s place of practice did not include a train or the whereabouts of the train at that time.

In the end, the issue ended in compensation and the revocation of the doctor’s medical license.

From that moment on, most doctors and nurses turned a deaf ear when there was a broadcast on the train looking for medical personnel.

That was how far social behavior had degraded.

Obviously, Professor Pei was unsupportive of this approach.

How could a doctor leave a patient unattended?

This was how he validated Zheng Ren’s good deed.

“It’s my job,” replied Zheng Ren with a smile.

“Professor Pei, do you think Chief Zheng should go to the hotel or the hospital first?” Feng Xuhui said. He had been waiting quietly the whole time. “I’ve booked a hotel room for him.”

“He’ll stay in the hospital guest house.” Professor Pei waved his hand and entered the car, signaling for Zheng Ren to sit in the back. Meanwhile, Su Yun helped the chauffeur load their luggage into the trunk before getting into the pa.s.senger seat.

Feng Xuhui was nearly in tears.

In order to make the young doctor with great potential feel at home, he had even paid the booking fee for a room in a five-star hotel.

However, he had failed to expect…

A guest house…

It was a term so historic that those born after the year 2000 had never heard it before, and the name itself carried a distinctive rustic weight that could take one back thirty years.

Poor Chief Zheng. He had to stay in a guest house instead of a five-star hotel.

However, there was no way he would visibly express that thought.

Feng Xuhui put on a professional smile and watched as the black Hongqi left the area before getting into his car and following it.

In the Hongqi, Zheng Ren sat upright and chatted with Professor Pei.

“Little Zheng, I hadn’t expected your diagnosing skill to be so good,” Professor Pei said with a smile, “Not everyone can diagnose an aortic dissection, let alone the specific severity.”

“I’ve seen two similar cases and read literature about it,” replied Zheng Ren politely.
