Chapter 4: Healing

Well then, I will go back to rest for now. If there is anything, Mr. Zhang can call me at any time. Lin Yuan nodded; he was indeed quite tired. Treating someone with power and influence is not an easy task, as there are too many concerns to worry about.

"It seems that just a few days ago, you said I was the most troublesome and least reassuring among this group of interns," Lin Yuan thought to himself, though a smile was on his face.

Thank you, General Manager Zhang. I will think it over and get back to you later. Lin Yuan smiled, neither agreeing on the spot nor directly refusing. Although he had cured Zhang Xin this time, he did not genuinely believe that the Zhang family owed him a favor. Some favors do not need to be repaid; once used, they are simply over.

"I have eaten, thank you for your concern, Dr. Wang," Lin Yuan replied with a smile. Wang Wenhui's sudden warmth towards him truly made him feel a bit unaccustomed.

It is somewhat a waste for Dr. Wang not to perform Sichuan opera Lin Yuan also joked

If you do not intend to stay at Jiangzhong Second Hospital, I can introduce you to the Provincial Hospital, or even the Health Department," Zhang Kaijiang said. "It is not easy to be a doctor nowadays; without qualifications, it is difficult to stand out. The Health Department is quite good; if you are willing to enter politics, that would be the best choice.

After washing his face and having a meal, Lin Yuan changed his clothes and headed to the department. He had hardly been to the department in the past few days, and today marked his first visit since being taken away by Jiang Haichao.

The most significant issue was Peng Jianhui's final blunder. Originally, Zhang Kaijiang would not have blamed Peng Jianhui too harshly, but in the end, he repeatedly made things difficult for Lin Yuan, obstructing the treatment process in various ways, which greatly angered Zhang Kaijiang

Jiang Haichao has been visiting the ward from time to time over the past three days. Although Lin Yuan has taken medication, both Peng Jianhui and Jiang Haichao remain uneasy.

"Lin Yuan, Dr. Wang changes his expression so quickly." As soon as Wang Wenhui left, Chen Ying leaned over to Lin Yuan and said with a smile

For three consecutive days, Lin Yuan stayed by Zhang Xin's hospital room, becoming Zhang Xin's dedicated doctor. Although Peng Jianhui was reluctant, Zhang Kaijiang had already made a decision, and he felt it was inappropriate to say anything further. However, his gaze towards Lin Yuan was not particularly friendly.

"Mr. Zhang, you are being too modest; treating illnesses and saving lives is the duty of a doctor," Lin Yuan said with a smile. Over the past few days, in order to reassure Zhang Kaijiang, he had been watching over him day and night, only occasionally taking a short nap in the dormitory. Now that Zhang Xin had finally shown signs of improvement, he felt a sense of relief.

Although this time he has offended Peng Jianhui as well, Lin Yuan does not regret it. Firstly, with Jiang Haichao backing him, there should be no major issues with passing the internship. Moreover, as a dean, if Peng Jianhui holds a grudge against him for curing a patient out of selfishness, then offending such a person is not a concern. Lin Yuan is not the type to bow and scrape easily. It would be best if he could pass the internship, but if he truly cannot due to Peng Jianhui's difficulties, then there is nothing he can do. Lin Yuan cannot abandon his principles for the sake of an internship.

Xiaolin, do you have some time? When you do, we should have a good chat. I have been paying close attention to your group of interns since you joined, but I have been too busy to communicate.

It is all due to Dr. Lin's excellent medical skills. Zhang Kaijiang said with a smile, I heard that Dr. Lin is still interning at the hospital, and the internship period is almost over, right

Jiang Haichao recalled how Zhang Kaijiang had angrily said yesterday, "How can someone with such a mindset become the dean?" This thought brought him a wave of joy; if Zhang Kaijiang had said a few more words in front of Zhang Baicheng, it was highly likely that Peng Jianhui's position as dean would be in jeopardy

As the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain collapsing, while recovery is as slow as pulling silk. A serious illness can greatly deplete one's vitality

Let's take another look at this, the Second Hospital of Jiangzhong is not easy to stay in said Lin Yuan with a smile

Lin Yuan took the pulse, assumed a posture, and said with a smile: "You have already recovered and can be discharged. Go home and take good care of yourself, and I guarantee that in two days you will be able to jump around and play football without any issues"

Hehe, however, Linyuan, I didn't expect that you actually know Dean Jiang. With Dean Jiang around, your internship results will definitely be the best

It is still uncertain at this moment; it would be best to stay in the hospital if possible. However, I am most proficient in traditional Chinese medicine, so the likelihood of staying in the hospital is not high said Lin Yuan

In fact, I am not very familiar with Dean Jiang," Lin Yuan said with a smile. "Moreover, Chen Ying, you are not only an academic achiever but also a beauty. Doctor Hao will definitely not make things difficult for you, unlike me. If it weren't for Dean Jiang, my internship performance would definitely be the worst.

"Doctor Lin, let's start the medication!" After a moment of surprise, Zhang Kaijiang finally made a decision, and the items he had originally packed were set aside. Zhang Xin temporarily resided at Jiangzhong Second Hospital again

Lin Yuan returned to the dormitory and fell asleep immediately. When he woke up, it was already the next morning, and upon checking the time, he realized there was just over an hour left before work.

Perhaps. Chen Ying smiled and asked, "By the way, Lin Yuan, there are still more than two months until the internship ends. What are your plans then? Do you intend to stay at Jiangzhong Second Hospital or...?"

"It will be soon, just a little over two months." Lin Yuan nodded

Indeed, Xiao Lin, you should go back and rest. Zhang Kaijiang's wife, Huang Yue'e, also said with concern: These past few days have been exhausting for you, take care of your health

Alright, I will wait for your response. Zhang Kaijiang is not acting on a whim; rather, he is quite serious. To be honest, he truly admires Lin Yuan

On the afternoon of the second day after taking the medication, Zhang Xin's high fever began to significantly subside. By the third day, his body temperature had completely returned to normal, and Jiang Haichao let out a sigh of relief.

After chatting briefly with Chen Ying, Lin Yuan went to Zhang Xin's hospital room. Zhang Xin had basically recovered, but after such a serious illness, his body was still somewhat weak. Lin Yuan prescribed a remedy for his recovery.

Dr. Xiaolin, thank you very much this time. Zhang Kaijiang's face was also filled with smiles. Over the past three days, Lin Yuan not only treated Zhang Xin's high fever but also prescribed medication that alleviated his insomnia. Even in the hospital, he was able to take a nap at night, and the quality of his sleep was quite good, something he had not experienced since returning from abroad.

"Xiaolin, you should go back and rest; you have been quite exhausted these past few days," Jiang Haichao said with a smile. Lin Yuan had cured Zhang Xin's illness, and naturally, the one who benefited the most was Jiang Haichao. Zhang Kaijiang, in expressing his gratitude to Lin Yuan, would certainly not forget him.

Upon entering the department, Lin Yuan felt that the gazes of others upon him were somewhat peculiar. Upon entering the duty room, Wang Wenhui was organizing documents. Seeing Lin Yuan, a bright smile appeared on his face: "Xiao Lin has arrived, have you had breakfast yet?"

"When did the beautiful Chen start to care about current affairs?" Lin Yuan joked, then added: "Actually, you know that I specialize in traditional Chinese medicine. In the future, I might open my own clinic, but of course, that will have to wait until my internship is over"

For those attending medical school, internship performance is very important, as it not only affects graduation grades but also has implications for future employment. Poor internship performance will undoubtedly impact job prospects in the future

"Well, work hard. You are the best among this group of interns, and this is evident to everyone," Wang Wenhui said, patting Lin Yuan on the shoulder

In the past two days, Zhang Xin's complexion has improved significantly, with a rosy glow on her face. The young girl appears radiant and charming, undoubtedly a beauty, and would certainly be considered a campus belle at school

Unlike others, Lin Yuan attended medical school primarily to meet his family's expectations. His true expertise lies in traditional Chinese medicine, and his study of Western medicine is merely to enhance his ability to treat and save lives, acquiring additional knowledge on the foundation of traditional Chinese medicine

After more than half an hour, the medicinal soup was brought in. Lin Yuan personally examined it before allowing Zhang Xin to take it. Zhang Xin, only about sixteen or seventeen years old, is a very delicate young girl. She has been suffering from a high fever for the past few days, leaving her both haggard and listless. After taking the medicine, she fell asleep.

Upon entering the ward, Zhang Xin was sitting on the bed, smiling and greeting Lin Yuan: "Doctor Lin, you have arrived. Thank you this time; if it weren't for you, I would have likely delayed my college entrance examination."

Some renowned doctors abroad perform only about thirty surgeries a year, whereas in China, most surgeons conduct over three hundred surgeries annually

Many people believe that being a doctor is a good profession, but in reality, practicing medicine in the country is not easy. Even well-known doctors have very busy workdays.

As Lin Yuan was about to return to the department after leaving Zhang Xin's hospital room, he unexpectedly ran into Peng Jianhui.

"There is no need to be polite; it is what I should do." Lin Yuan smiled and greeted Zhang Kaijiang, then approached the bedside to conduct a follow-up examination for Zhang Xin

For instance, some surgical specialists have their surgical schedules nearly fully booked for the entire year, and they also have to manage doctor-patient relationships. When surgeries are successful, everyone is naturally pleased; however, if something goes wrong, it can sometimes lead to a tarnished reputation, creating an atmosphere where only success is permitted and failure is not tolerated.

"Doctor Lin, what are your plans after the end of your internship? Will you continue to stay at Jiangzhong Second Hospital?" Zhang Kaijiang asked

You have no problem, Director Jiang will definitely help you, and I have heard that the illness of the young lady from the Mingshi Group was cured by you, so Director Jiang's promotion is just around the corner

It is now April of 2005, and there are only two months left until the college entrance examination. Zhang Xin is currently in her third year of high school. A delay of half a month is not a big issue, but if it continues, it will indeed affect her performance in the examination. Of course, as the daughter of the Mingshi Group, the college entrance examination is not particularly important to her. However, the young girl is proud and determined to get into university based on her own abilities.
