456 Old and Fat Cheetah with a Large Belly (2/2)
”I'm able to,” Ling Ran said, ”Partial hepatectomy is the best solution right now.”
This time, Mei Tiangui said nothing. He looked at his father.
Elder Mei nodded his fleshy chin a little and said slowly, ”Since we have already come to a decision, let us go ahead with it.”
”Professor Huang, this shouldn't be a problem right?” Mei Tiangui asked.
”Among all the doctors I have seen, Doctor Ling is the best when it comes to hepatectomy.” There was nothing else Professor Huang could say.
”Alright, Doctor Ling. I'll entrust you with the health of my father, then.” Mei Tiangui took a deep breath and continued, ”If you have any requests, you can raise it now. I stand by what I said just now—I will give you whatever you want.”
Elder Mei and his daughter, too, looked at Ling Ran with a smile.
The Mei family had always believed very much in taking a carrot-and-stick approach to things. They had passed down this core belief from generation to generation, and this was the core behind how they managed to maintain power for so many generations. They took this approach when dealing with subordinates, low-ranked officials, as well as doctors.
Professor Huang had also been on the receiving end of the Mei family's ”carrot-and-stick approach”. He said to Ling Ran, enunciating each word clearly to make his point, ”Doctor Ling, this is the best time to raise any request you have or talk about anything that's on your mind.”
Ling Ran nodded solemnly.
Since the other party was so insistent, now that he had looked at the patient's information and was confident in curing him...
The term ”Transformer” appeared in Ling Ran's mind, but he immediately eliminated the possibility.
If the other party had the ability to conjure up a Transformer, he would have used his power to cure his father's illness first. As Ling Ran did not think that he was mentally ill, he obviously did not allow others to think that he was mentally ill too!
”I would like an ICU,” Ling Ran raised his request earnestly. The lack of an ICU was something that had troubled and caused Ling Ran a lot of grief recently. If he had his own ICU, he would get to arrange the recovery plans of his patients, be it those who had undergone CPR or hepatectomy. With his Master Level and even Perfect Level skills, the patients' prognoses would definitely be a lot better.
As the three members of the Mei family gazed at Ling Ran, their smiles slowly disappeared.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
”You want an ICU?” Mei Tiangui repeated Ling Ran's request.
Ling Ran nodded. ”ICU means intensive care unit. An ICU is equipped with a central monitoring system, ventilator, hemofiltration apparatus…”
”I know what an ICU is. What I meant was, what do you want an ICU for?” Mei Tiangui wore an extremely puzzled expression. ”Did you know that this promise… Nevermind, can you raise another request?”
”Oh, that's not possible?” Since Ling Ran had expected this, he was not really disappointed. He pursed his lips and said, ”You can also give me one hundred cadavers. If one hundred is too many, you can just give me five or ten.”
Even though he had obtained plenty of anatomical dissection experience, Ling Ran still had a lot of room for growth when it came to the experience of dissecting an entire cadaver.
Besides, he also had the urge to carry out his own research.
Mei Tiangui felt his lips twitch when he heard that. He said with furrowed eyebrows, ”No one goes around giving other people cadavers. How is this even possible? How did you even manage to think of this? Raise another request!”
”Oh, this is not possible either? Um, then, can you increase the number of hospital beds in Yun Hua Emergency Medical Center?” Ling Ran lowered his bar.
”The number of medical staff would need to be increased for there to be an increase in the number of hospital beds.” Professor Huang's soul almost flew out of his body when he heard that, and he had no choice but to explain things to him. However, he was feeling good on the inside. 'Ling Ran was not deliberately provoking me.'
Of course, Mei Tiangui could not promise Ling Ran to increase the number of medical staff in the Emergency Medical Center. It was just too much. Besides, it was not an easy feat.
Elder Mei's daughter cleared her throat and broke the awkwardness. ”Doctor Ling, you can actually raise some personal requests.”
”Those are my personal requests,” Ling Ran answered earnestly.
”What I meant was that…” Elder Mei's daughter struggled for the right words. ”I heard that you're still a resident doctor right now. Don't you have the desire to rise in the ranks or do something else? Don't you want to become an attending physician?”
Ling Ran shook his head a little. ”No.”
”Why?”
Ling Ran gave her a puzzled look. ”Why don't you get an attending physician to treat your father?”
”There's no logical relationship between…” Elder Mei's daughter was a little confused.
”Hahahaha…” Elder Mei suddenly laughed out loud.
Everyone subconsciously looked at the fat and fierce-looking old man who was sitting in the middle of the room in unison.
”Extraordinary people do things extraordinarily indeed. Doctor Ling, I'm sorry to trouble you this time.” Elder Mei stood up, extended his hand and shook Ling Ran's hand gently. He then turned elegantly, like an old and fat cheetah with a large belly who was still as elegant as ever. He cut an awe-inspiring figure.
”Let me perform a physical examination for you first.” Ling Ran suddenly called after Elder Mei. ”You just need to find somewhere to lie down.
The old and fat cheetah with a large belly stopped in his tracks. He turned and asked, ”Now?”
”Yes, you can just lie on the carpet. Do take off your shoes and clothes.” Ling Ran made such a perfect arrangement that the others were unable to find any reason to turn down his request.
