98: If you really don't like it, just step on it to death!
Chapter 098: If He's Really an Eyesore, Just Step on Him!
Only when facing Director Cui, Lin Yi would still politely explain a few words.
To be able to enter Central Hospital as an undergraduate, studying General Practice Medicine, Director Cui helped him a lot, and Lin Yi had to remember this favor.
His teacher, Professor Cao, no matter how influential he was, had already retired. Director Cui didn't treat him with the common attitude of 'out of sight, out of mind,' which earned him respect... As for Director Bai of Thoracic Surgery and Director Qiu of General Surgery, Lin Yi couldn't even be bothered to explain.
From the moment the system was activated and the interview took place, these two had already become like clowns in Lin Yi's eyes.
Ever since he entered the Emergency Department and verified the reliability of the system, whether it was Cardiothoracic Surgery or General Surgery, these key departments of Central Hospital would sooner or later become Lin Yi's stepping stones, to be trampled underfoot.
Standing from different perspectives, there was also a huge difference in their hearts.
Who would lower himself to curse back at an ant under his foot just because it was making noise?
If he's really an eyesore, just step on him...
"Good!"
"Then in three days, we'll await good news from Doctor Lin."
For some reason, looking at Lin Yi's confident and firm eyes, Director Cui suddenly had a misconception, as if his senior brother Professor Cao Yanuuo from his youth was standing before him again.
Without 100% certainty, the other party would never show such an expression...
"A single master cannot teach two different disciples; they truly are cut from the same mold!"
After silently sighing a few times, Director Cui turned his gaze to Bai Ji and Qiu Lixin beside him.
As his eyes swept across their faces, there was a clear hint of deeper meaning...
"I believe Doctor Lin also has the ability to make certain people shut their mouths by then!"
Without explaining the meaning of his words, Director Cui suddenly turned around after speaking and left the Emergency Department operating room with light steps...
"Hmph!"
Watching Director Cui's retreating back, Director Qiu snorted heavily.
"I'll see who can't back down in three days."
"The person who wants me, Qiu Lixin, to call him Grandpa hasn't been born yet!"
After dropping a harsh remark, Qiu Lixin sneered and turned to leave...
"You..."
"I really don't know what to say about you..."
Bai Ji pointed at Lin Yi and the others, just about to say something harsh.
But seeing the anger in Lu Chenxi's eyes, he immediately backed down.
He flicked his sleeve and hurriedly followed behind Director Qiu...
"This is too much! Why question our Emergency Department's surgical skills?"
"I think General Surgery and Thoracic Surgery are just jealous and can't stand to see our Emergency Department doing well..."
After the two directors' backs disappeared from view, Fang Xiaoran, who was usually kind to people, couldn't suppress the grievance in her heart and started complaining directly.
"Lin Yi, we really should have shown the video of the surgery just now."
"Shove it in the faces of those two big directors and let them see what a top-notch radical gallbladder cancer surgery looks like."
"Why can't our Emergency Department complete such high-precision, cutting-edge surgeries..."
While feeling wronged, Fang Xiaoran also felt indignant for Lin Yi.
He had clearly completed a surgery that Surgeons dream of but can never achieve in a lifetime.
Not only did he not receive the praise and commendation he deserved, but he was also questioned like this, which was simply stifling.
What he couldn't understand was why Lin Yi stopped her when she wanted to show the video just now.
This was the best opportunity to prove himself...
"There's no need for that!"
Lin Yi responded as calmly as ever.
"In the eyes of those who don't believe you, they can find fault even in an egg."
"Even if they watch the video, they will still say, 'Can you confirm the patient's cancer cells are eradicated just by watching a video?'"
"A video isn't testing equipment, how can it prove anything?"
"This..."
Facing Lin Yi's rhetorical question, Fang Xiaoran was speechless.
Indeed, as the other party said, the shameless directors Qiu and Bai would definitely raise such questions.
"What's more!"
"Why should I explain to them!"
After leaving a faint remark, Lin Yi also turned and walked out of the observation room...
"This kid, why is he even more stubborn than you!"
Looking at Lin Yi's back, and then at Lu Chenxi, Director Zhong sighed from the bottom of his heart.
"Don't bring me into it."
However, what greeted Zhong Xibei was a big eye-roll from Lu Chenxi.
"Why should I explain to them? I, this Old Man, like that sentence!"
Director Zhong completely ignored Lu Chenxi's eye-roll and continued to marvel at Lin Yi's words.
If he had Lin Yi's domineering attitude when he was young, he might have experienced less frustration in his life.
Everything is predestined.
Unable to learn Lin Yi's domineering attitude, having the domineering Lin Yi, how could it not be the best compensation for him...
"Xiao Fang, go keep an eye on Lin Yi."
"If that kid has any negative thoughts, you're good at persuading people, so persuade him more."
"With Lu Chenxi and me here, nothing will go wrong."
After thinking for a moment, Zhong Xibei, still a little worried, quickly asked Fang Xiaoran to keep an eye on Lin Yi.
After all, Lin Yi was still just a young man in his twenties.
If that calm and carefree demeanor was just an act, and he had some negative thoughts afterward, the Emergency Department's little sun would need to guide him more...
"Okay, Director, I'll go right away!"
Fang Xiaoran responded to the director and then chased after Lin Yi.
After Director Zhong's reminder, she really felt that this was possible.
She considered herself good-tempered, right? She was only the second assistant in this surgery, involved in it, and facing the two directors' questioning already made her quite angry!
What about Lin Yi? He was the chief Surgeon of this operation!
It would be a miracle if he wasn't angry after having his ability questioned like that!
His carefree and unrestrained demeanor was probably just an act for everyone to see.
If he bottled up his frustration for too long, it would definitely lead to problems...
"You... are you really okay?"
After Fang Xiaoran quickly tidied up, as soon as she returned to the office, she saw Lin Yi looking at his phone with a worried frown from afar.
She quietly asked the other party, considering what words to use to persuade Lin Yi.
"I'm fine, what could be wrong with me?"
Lin Yi replied casually to Fang Xiaoran without even lifting his head, continuing to stare at his phone screen and muttering to himself.
"Why are the rental prices around our Hospital so high?"
"Even if the prices are high, all the rented houses are so dilapidated!"
As his wallet grew fatter these past two days, Lin Yi also had the idea of renting an apartment near the Hospital.
The apartment he lived in with his sister was not only far from the Hospital but also a truly old, dilapidated small community, and with only one bedroom and one living room, the siblings had no private space at all.
If he could find a suitable apartment near the Hospital, he could improve their living environment and also take better care of his sister.
Even if Lin Yi had to work night shifts, if he installed a camera at home, and his sister had an emergency, he could rush there immediately...
"So you're worried about renting a house!"
Looking at the housing search page on Lin Yi's phone, Fang Xiaoran finally patted her chest and felt relieved.
"Don't bother, I know of an apartment that's both cheap and good, you'll definitely like it!"
"How about I take you to see it at noon?"
After blurting out such a sentence on a whim, Fang Xiaoran's face suddenly flushed.
"Doctor Lin, please go take a look, there's a group of female patients looking for you outside."
Fortunately, Nurse Yang Yu's timely appearance relieved Fang Xiaoran's embarrassment...
