Personal matters

Liu Qitong was injured on his right arm, which more or less caused him some inconvenience.

Director Guo reasonablely suggested that he perform fewer surgeries and let other doctors with the same qualifications represent him, but Liu Qitong declined all of them.

In Liu Qitong's view, surgery is undoubtedly the life of a surgeon.He would never allow himself to leave his lifeline-like operating table for such a small injury.

In the afternoon, Dean Jiang called Guo Huaixiu to the hospital office, saying that he wanted to discuss about the upcoming encephalopathy center.

While chatting, the two naturally talked about the current status of brain surgery.

"What do you think of Professor Lin Zhen?" Dean Jiang asked.

"Well...the clinical and academic performances are solid, and they performed well in all aspects."

This is not Guo Huaixiu's generosity.Putting aside the father-son relationship between Lin Zhen and Lin Changmin, Guo Huaixiu personally admires Lin Zhen more.He is neither arrogant nor impetuous at such a young age, and treats others with respect and courtesy, which is really rare among his peers.

"You think so too..." Dean Jiang sighed, "I took a lot of pressure when I introduced him. Now it seems that it is really worth it."

"If the hospital wants to improve, it needs young talents like Professor Lin Zhen." Dean Jiang said, "With such academic leaders, our hospital can compete with other top three hospitals.

Guo Huaixiu looked up in surprise—did he hear wrong just now?Dean Jiang's words hinted that he wanted to train Lin Zhen to be the successor of brain surgery.

"You mean..."

"Professor Lin Zhen, an elite talent who has returned from overseas, is the key target of our hospital's training." Dean Jiang explained with a smile.

"What's more, his father, Professor Lin Changmin, is a well-known expert in our hospital and enjoys a high reputation at home and abroad. Professor Lin has been working hard for so many years and has made great contributions to the hospital. He really needs to be taken care of."

Appreciation is appreciation, but watching the old enemy's son ascend to the top is poignant after all.

Guo Huaixiu couldn't help frowning, "Dean Jiang, Professor Lin Zhen has only come here not long ago, although his personal ability is very strong, but..."

"Of course, Director Liu Qitong is also a good candidate." Dean Jiang thought for a while, and then said: "So, the intention of the courtyard is to take another look."

"Dean Jiang..."

"As for the brain disease center," Dean Jiang suddenly changed the topic, "I have discussed with several vice presidents, and you, Director Guo, should take the lead, so as to ensure the quality of medical services."

Guo Huaixiu's heart skipped a beat.

"Director Guo should retire in two years, right?" Dean Jiang said with a smile, "The hospital has decided to hire you back as the head of the brain disease center. What do you think?"

Guo Huaixiu thought about it, but still had some concerns.

"Professor Lin Changmin has made it clear that he will not go there." Dean Jiang said with a smile, "His wife is not in good health, and he wants to spend more time with her at home."

Is this abandoning the car?

There is no doubt that the old guy Lin Changmin used his social connections to push his son up, and Dean Jiang has obviously been done with his work here.

Guo Huaixiu always thought that Liu Qitong had been affirmed by the higher-ups for a long time, and it was a sure thing to take over the post of department director. Who knew that the situation would change suddenly, and there was another Lin Zhen who was evenly matched on the way.This is to blame, and it can only be blamed on Liu Qitong's bad luck.

——But of course, these have nothing to do with him, Guo Huaixiu.

Director Guo immediately expressed generously that everything was subject to the arrangement of the leadership of the institute.

"It's not urgent, after all, there are still two years." With Guo Huaixiu's approval, Dean Jiang felt very relieved, "If there is a chance, I will ask Director Guo to bring Director Xiao Lin. Young people, after all experience Insufficient, need to exercise."

"Why do you call it troublesome? Isn't this what it should be?" Guo Huaixiu said with a smile, "It's my duty to pay the last stick!"

The two chatted and laughed, and chatted about other gossips before breaking up.

......................................................

"Doctor Wang, when will Director Liu come to see me?" Ivy looked at Wang Quan with pleading eyes.

"Tomorrow is the director's ward rounds, and I can see him then." Wang Quan comforted in a soft voice, "Don't worry. I have already told Director Liu about your matter, and he knows it well."

"That's right." Nurse Xiao Tang also persuaded from the side, "Sister, just relax."

Ivy burst into tears, "As long as I think of a tumor in my brain, I can't even sleep well at night."

Ivy's husband sat on the side and held her hand tightly, without saying a word from the beginning to the end.The two just looked at each other silently with teary eyes, and the atmosphere was very sad.

After leaving the ward, Wang Quan felt heavy in his heart.Originally wanted to go back to the doctor's office, but unknowingly walked to the door of the director's office.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk..."

"Come in." Liu Qitong's voice came from inside the door.

Wang Quan opened the door and walked in.

"Director Liu."

"En." Liu Qitong was concentrating on examining an MRI film under the projector lamp. "What's up?"

"That...is the sister-in-law of Nurse Xiao Tang I told you about last time. Can you spare some time to visit her today?"

"Headache again?" Liu Qitong didn't turn his head. "Just deal with it."

"No...the patient wants to see you." Wang Quan explained.

"Isn't there going to be a ward round tomorrow?" Liu Qitong finally turned his face reluctantly, "I've seen her film, and her condition is still stable, let's wait for the other blood test reports to come out."

"But..." Wang Quan hesitated a little, "She is very depressed now. I think if you can talk to her..."

"Doctor Wang."

"Yes." Wang Quan jumped.

"This is brain surgery, patients come in to be operated on." Liu Qitong frowned, "Shouldn't you be depressed?"

"..."

"I still have two surgeries today." Liu Qitong said again, if every patient talked to each other like this, everyone might as well not sleep. "

"But……"

"You are the attending physician, and it is your duty to talk about things like this...If it's not possible, give her a Prozac first." After speaking, Liu Qitong turned back and continued to study his MRI film — The conversation is over.
