167: Do I have to go to the doctor obediently even if I am pointed at and scolded?
Chapter 167: Getting cursed at while being pointed at, do I still have to treat them obediently?!
"Should we inform Professor Cao Yano, Lin Yi's teacher?"
After returning from the Director's Office, Zhong Xibei locked himself in his office, refusing any disturbance.
He kept pacing around the office, racking his brain to find more external help, preparing to thoroughly resolve the crisis Lin Yi was facing... "Forget it! I can't make that call."
"What if Professor Cao finds out that his proud disciple is suffering such great injustice in the Central Hospital Emergency Department, and then recalls Lin Yi? That would ruin everything..."
Zhong Xibei thought it over and decided that the path of leveraging Professor Cao Yano's influence was still not viable.
However, after this matter, he must visit Professor Cao in person to apologize.
Professor Cao had entrusted his closed-door disciple with such confidence, but the Emergency Department failed to protect Lin Yi. Wasn't that a betrayal of his trust?
After making a few more calls and contacting some old acquaintances, Zhong Xibei finally called Lin Yi, preparing to tell him that he didn't need to come in this afternoon.
Once these old guys had completely cleared the obstacles, Lin Yi could then come to work refreshed...
"What? You're in the gallbladder ward!"
Zhong Xibei cried out in surprise, looking at the name displayed on his phone again in disbelief.
Didn't he tell this guy to go back and rest? Why was he back in the Emergency Department?
Little Notebook would be bringing people over this afternoon...
"I've also taken on a few patients and plan to finish the surgeries before this afternoon!"
"Don't go into the operating room yet, just wait where you are, I'll be right there!"
Upon hearing Lin Yi's next move, Zhong Xibei grew even more nervous. Before he even hung up the phone, he rushed out of his office and sped towards the gallbladder ward.
Finding Lin Yi, Zhong Xibei, without a word, pulled him out of the gallbladder ward...
"Stop these surgeries for now, go home and rest immediately. This is an order."
"You haven't rested all night, your energy definitely won't keep up. For the sake of the patients and yourself, going home to rest is the best choice!"
To deal with stubborn people like Lin Yi and Lu Chenxi, Zhong Xibei had long since developed a workable plan.
"I'm not tired at all, Director. Don't you trust my skills? I can finish these surgeries with my eyes closed."
Lin Yi resolutely rejected the Director's suggestion.
He was about to unlock Heart-related surgical skills, and the task of saving money also needed to be accelerated.
What if he acquired surgical techniques to treat dilated cardiomyopathy but couldn't afford the surgery? Wouldn't that be a joke...
"Besides, I've already informed the patients and their families, and all pre-operative preparations have been completed."
"If we stop now, what will the patients and their families think? What if they complain? The arrow is on the string, it must be shot!"
Seeing that the Director had no intention of compromising, Lin Yi had no choice but to threaten him from the patients' perspective.
Now, no one could stop his frantic pace of earning money. Until the day his sister's dilated cardiomyopathy was completely eradicated, Lin Yi would never truly relax.
What's more!
He also needed to plan for himself. His entire family had been diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy; could he escape the curse of this familial genetic disease?
If he possessed the highest medical technology but couldn't even solve the hidden dangers in his own body, what was the point...
"Why can't I get through to you?"
"Director Ning also told you that Little Notebook is bringing an investigation team from the ministry to the Hospital this afternoon to investigate you."
"As long as you're not so stubborn, we have plenty of ways to deal with it!"
"Isn't this because I'm afraid you... afraid you might lose control of your emotions, which is why I came up with this countermeasure...?"
Zhong Xibei realized that beating around the bush with this guy was just a waste of his breath.
Rather than that, it was better to be direct.
He believed that even if Lin Yi was incredibly stubborn, he would still understand his Old Man's good intentions...
"If the Director puts it that way, then I definitely can't leave!"
Lin Yi stiffened his neck, looking fearless.
"Doctors should also have basic human rights, shouldn't they? Getting cursed at while being pointed at, do I still have to obediently treat them?"
"What era is this? Those unreasonable patients are spoiled by the Hospital!"
Lin Yi grew more animated as he spoke.
If a patient's words and attitude were a bit excessive due to their illness, doctors could understand.
After all, everyone gets sick, especially when facing terrifying diseases like cancer; emotional instability is a reasonable human reaction.
But those unreasonable idiots who wished the whole world revolved around them should really be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
To minimize major issues and resolve minor ones, the Hospital ultimately pushed all responsibility onto the medical staff. Having been a doctor in two lives, Lin Yi had long grown tired of this unequal doctor-patient relationship...
"How could I not understand what you're saying?"
"As a doctor, as a Director, I also want the medical staff in the department to stand tall."
"However, the system is there. To keep this job we love, sometimes we have to compromise!"
"You, young man, just haven't been 'beaten by society' yet, which is why you fantasize about fairness in everything, everywhere..."
With everything out in the open, Zhong Xibei didn't mind having a Heart-to-Heart with Lin Yi.
In short, his main point was to convince Lin Yi to go home if possible.
If not, he at least had to make him understand the stakes involved and get through the current crisis first...
"I understand the Director's good intentions, so I'll be direct as well."
"Regarding Little Notebook's matter, there is absolutely no possibility of me compromising."
"Even if that beast confronts me this afternoon, I will still point at him and curse back!"
"What kind of nonsense is this? People from that beastly country don't even deserve to be called human!"
Lin Yi very clearly expressed his views to Director Zhong. Regarding Little Notebook's matter, he would not make any concessions.
While he didn't deny that there might be good people in that beastly country, based on Yamamoto's performance that day, that guy didn't even meet the standard...
Furthermore, with such a clear stance, insisting on settling the score in this matter, Lin Yi also had his own deeper considerations.
He wanted to use Little Notebook's incident to see what the Emergency Department and Central Hospital's attitude towards him truly was.
If Little Notebook could cause trouble today, tomorrow there might be other unexpected situations.
As Lin Yi's reputation grew, the troubles he encountered would also increase.
If the Hospital couldn't support him unreservedly with the medical skills Lin Yi was currently displaying, then he saw no need to stay.
Of course, if the Hospital could support him unconditionally, he would also give his all, living up to their trust...
"You, you! I..."
Zhong Xibei glared and stomped his foot, utterly helpless with Lin Yi.
"Forget it, go busy yourself!"
"Let come what may! This Old Man will go crazy with you, young man..."
Zhong Xibei turned and left. Such an unexpected situation required him to find the Director immediately to revise the original plan.
"Having a Director like this doesn't seem so bad!"
Lin Yi's Heart warmed. After muttering to himself while watching Zhong Xibei's retreating figure, he entered the operating room without hesitation...
