Chapter 43

"Did you know how dangerous it is for you to run a long distance in your condition? Especially in a competition like this?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Doctor, I can actually run," Xia Song said, but his voice lacked confidence.

"Don't talk anymore, rest well. Your current condition is not suitable for speaking," Qin Chuan quickly said.

By the time they reached the hospital, things were mostly under control. Wu Xiaoming, who usually did little in the emergency department, stood out this time. As soon as the ambulance arrived, he almost dove under the wheels. Fortunately, Driver Luo had good reflexes and hit the brakes in time.

"Damn it, what was that kid doing? If I hadn't reacted quickly, someone could have died!" Driver Luo was very angry.

Qin Chuan, who hadn't been paying attention, hit his head on the car and got a bump.

"Doctor, are you okay? It's all the fault of that bastard from the emergency department, almost getting under the wheels," Driver Luo said apologetically to Qin Chuan. He had a good impression of Qin Chuan, who had run such a long distance to save the patient. If it were another doctor, they would have waited in the car.

"It's fine, it's fine." Qin Chuan rubbed his head, looked at Xia Song on the stretcher, and only relaxed when he saw Xia Song was fine.

The hospital director Ye Hanzo and deputy director Zheng Yuanmeng were standing at the entrance of the emergency channel.

"Director Ye, look, the young people in the emergency department are full of enthusiasm," Zheng Yuanmeng said, referring to his nephew Wu Xiaoming.

Emergency department director Cheng Guanhua naturally knew how Wu Xiaoming usually performed. He understood why he was so proactive this time, but didn't want to say anything. He just smiled helplessly.

Ye Hanzo nodded, "It's good that young doctors are ambitious."

The main reason the hospital leaders were at the emergency entrance to receive the patient was that there were two cameramen with cameras. One was from Tanshan City TV, and the other from Sanxiang City TV.

With media attention, the leaders naturally wanted to show off. Ye Hanzo directed the doctors to orderly lift the patient from the ambulance to a stretcher. Due to the crowd, Qin Chuan, the attending doctor, was pushed to the side and couldn't get close to the stretcher. Qin Chuan didn't plan to seek the limelight, but he didn't expect to be caught by Li Zhong, a reporter from Sanxiang City TV.

"Hello, Doctor Qin." Li Zhong, who had somehow found out Qin Chuan's name, asked, "On the road just now, I saw the ambulance stuck in traffic. At that moment, you jumped out of the car and ran forward. What were you thinking at that time?" Li Zhong pointed the microphone at Qin Chuan.

"What else could I think? The ambulance was stuck and couldn't move, so I had to run. Any emergency doctor would do the same," Qin Chuan said, not feeling anything was wrong.

"It was still quite far from the hospital," Li Zhong interjected.

"Not that far. The traffic was heavy, and it wouldn't clear up quickly. Walking would definitely be faster," Qin Chuan said, feeling a bit impatient and thinking the interview was meaningless.

Li Zhong wanted to ask more, but Qin Chuan was getting impatient. "Sorry, our emergency department is very busy. We're all here to receive this one patient, and other patients will be left unattended."

The emergency department was indeed busy. Gao Zhanting was on leave, and a large crowd was surrounding Xia Song. Xia Song was now the most important patient in the emergency department. Although consultations with the second and third-line heart specialists had been arranged, the emergency doctors didn't dare to be negligent. Especially Wu Xiaoming, who wouldn't miss this chance to shine.

Qin Chuan returned to the emergency department, and He Xiaokang immediately asked, "Hey, Qin Chuan, why did you come in? This was a great opportunity to show off. How could you give it up so easily? You were the doctor who received this typical case. If you had stayed there, you would have had a chance to become a star doctor. Look at Wu Xiaoming, how good he is at seizing opportunities?"

"To seize the opportunity, he almost became a martyr. I want to live longer. I'm not going to risk my life," Qin Chuan said, recounting how Wu Xiaoming almost got under the wheels to show off. He Xiaokang couldn't help but laugh.

"Wow, this is the rhythm of preparing to be a martyr for fame," He Xiaokang chuckled.

Xia Song was soon transferred to the cardiac department, and it turned out to be a heart disease. Fortunately, Qin Chuan had handled it properly, and everything was fine. However, Xia Song had to stay in the hospital for some time. Although the hospital beds were very tight, a bed could always be found in such a situation. Xia Song was directly taken to a private room in the VIP ward, one of the few high-level wards in the hospital, specifically for patients with connections.

Qin Chuan either worked or sat alone, lost in thought. Others thought he was just tired.

"Qin, young people having ambition is not a bad thing, but in our emergency department, you must learn to manage your energy. Otherwise, it's hard to keep up. After all, it's not just a day or two. The emergency department doesn't have just one doctor. Don't do everything alone. Although I'm lazy and want to do less, I'm worried that if you can't keep up and get exhausted, it will be bad for all of us," He Xuedong, who wasn't good at giving advice, said.

Qin Chuan naturally knew He Xuedong meant well and smiled. "Doctor He, don't worry. I'm fine. My body is strong. I can definitely keep up."

"That's good, I was just worried you couldn't keep up," He Xuedong said.

Qin Chuan was actually leaning back in his chair, not because he was too tired, but because he was using the system to study medical basics. Qin Chuan already knew the importance of the system to him. Completing tasks could earn skill rewards, which would quickly improve his medical skills.

Qin Chuan wasn't against entering the "Fitness System," but the "Fitness System" consumed a lot of energy. If he entered it during work hours, it would be noticeable. The emergency department was so busy that each session in the system wouldn't be long, which wouldn't be a problem for the "Medical Basics System." This way, he could gradually accumulate and complete Task 1.

Qin Chuan originally thought that completing either Task 1 or Task 2 would trigger a new task. However, after completing the second task, no new task was assigned. Qin Chuan speculated that he must complete Task 1 for the system to assign a new task, or meet some other condition.

Although some virtue points were used, he still had 36 points. However, Qin Chuan checked and found that he couldn't exchange for some skills he coveted in the medical operation system. A basic first aid skill cost 100 virtue points, an intermediate first aid skill cost 500 points, and an advanced first aid skill cost 1000 points. A basic diagnostic skill cost 500 points, an intermediate diagnostic skill cost 1000 points, and an advanced diagnostic skill required 10,000 points.

"I'll just study step by step," Qin Chuan shook his head and dove back into the "Simulated Classroom," continuing his previous lesson. This method seemed slow, but it was very effective. As long as Qin Chuan saw it once in the simulated classroom, it seemed to be etched in his memory.

Gao Zhanting went to her aunt's house, where her parents were already waiting.

"Tingting, what are you doing?" Gao Tingyuan asked suspiciously.

"Yes, the company is so busy now. Your father has no time at all. How can you be so任性 (reckless) from a young age? You're so big and still act like a child," Guo Jiaying said, giving Gao Zhanting a disapproving look.

"Dad, Mom, I had someone investigate Jia Chunpeng. I found some issues. To avoid alarming Jia Chunpeng, I asked you to come to Aunt's house," Gao Zhanting said, and the temperature in the room dropped below zero.

"Tingting, tell us clearly, what's going on?" Gao Tingyuan asked anxiously.

"Yes, what happened to Chunpeng?" Guo Jiaying was also very tense.

Gao Zhanting's aunt, Gao Xiuying, said, "Tingting, tell your parents quickly."

Gao Zhanting told her parents everything she had discovered.

After listening, Gao Tingyuan slammed his hand on the coffee table, knocking over several cups.

"Really, an ungrateful wolf! I said from the beginning that Jia Chunpeng was dishonest and unreliable. It turned out to be true," Gao Tingyuan, who had strongly opposed Gao Zhanting's marriage, said.

"What's the point of saying this now?" Guo Jiaying said.

"I didn't know he was like this. He's a great actor. I was completely deceived," Gao Zhanting couldn't help but cry.

"You only know how to cry. Why didn't you listen to me back then?" Gao Tingyuan said angrily.

"It's already like this. What's the point of scolding Tingting?" Gao Xiuying said.

"We need to find a way to deal with this. What's the point of scolding?" Guo Jiaying also defended her daughter.

"Didn't Jia Chunpeng invite us all to travel recently? I always felt there was something wrong," Gao Zhanting said.

Gao Tingyuan's face changed. "Do you think he's after our family's assets?"

Gao Zhanting nodded. "His ex-girlfriend, who is now his mistress, has a deeper purpose. If he just wanted wealth, why would he bring his girlfriend into Tingyuan Group?"

Gao Tingyuan pondered. "Tingting, don't worry about this. We've seen this person's true colors. Fortunately, nothing irreparable has happened. Leave it to me. I won't let him off. For now, don't make a fuss. Follow the travel plan. I want to see what he's really up to!"
