Overpowered Resident Doctor

After freshening up, Yan Ziruo came to the dining room and found two more dishes of Jingcheng-style cuisine on the table, heated up in the microwave.

’With such convenient ready-made food, even my brother, who’s always so self-disciplined, is starting to slack off.’

Yan Ziruo mused to herself, then asked, "Feifan, we don’t have many of those vacuum-sealed meals left, do we?"

"There are still fifteen bags," Yan Feifan replied.

Yan Ziruo let out a soft "oh," and then heard Yu Suye say, "If you like them, I can have some more delivered."

"These dishes were all prepared by the master chefs at Baining Hospital’s high-end restaurant. The ingredients and flavor are guaranteed."

"No, no, that’s alright."

After her hasty refusal, Yan Ziruo explained, "The food is really delicious, but the flavors are a bit heavy. It makes me eat an extra bowl of rice with every meal. I feel like I’m starting to get a little potbelly."

She looked at Yan Feifan and continued, "About hiring a housekeeper, a colleague of mine recommended someone."

"Feifan, could you and Su Ye come home from work a little early tonight to interview her with me?"

Yan Feifan said casually, "Sis, you can just make the decision yourself."

"The most important thing is that she’s clean and hygienic."

"And she has to be a good cook," Yu Suye added.

Yan Ziruo grunted in agreement. "My colleague said she’s not yet forty and used to be a full-time housewife."

"But her husband passed away from cancer a while ago."

"The family spent most of their money on his treatment, and with a child still in school, she wants to find work to earn some money."

"But she hasn’t worked in years and doesn’t have any special skills, so she can really only do housekeeping."

Yan Feifan said, "Oh," and then reminded her, "Sis, her situation is sympathetic, so we can lower our expectations a bit, but we can’t lower our standards when it comes to cleanliness and hygiene."

Yan Ziruo shot him a sidelong glance. "You don’t need to tell me. I know what I’m doing."

"We’re hiring a housekeeper, not running a charity..."

After breakfast, Yan Feifan and Yu Suye rode their bikes while Yan Ziruo drove her Cayenne. They arrived at the hospital at nearly the same time.

Then, the three of them, carrying a fruit basket and flowers they’d bought on the way, went to Inpatient Building Five to visit Jio Xin, who had woken up.

Unfortunately, Jio Xin, who had been playing on her phone just a moment before, was suddenly asleep.

However, Yan Feifan noticed Jio Xin’s slightly fluttering eyelashes and her gradually reddening face. He knew she was pretending to be asleep.

’Is it because she wet the bed?’

Yan Feifan felt there was no need for her to do this.

As a senior nurse, she should know that her incontinence was a normal symptom of diminished bodily control. It would resolve over time, so there was no need to be embarrassed.

Their visit was just a formality. They chatted casually with Jio Xin’s parents for a few minutes before leaving the ward...

In the morning, Yan Feifan was in Qin Ying’s medical research office, continuing his studies with Mrs. Qin on how to treat various injuries to the male ’fatal weakness.’

After lunch, he went to the trauma surgery department.

As previously arranged, starting this Wednesday afternoon, Yan Feifan was to learn from Mrs. Chen how to treat various hand tendon injuries.

Yan Feifan knocked and entered Mrs. Chen’s office, only to see Chen Yu in workout clothes, doing yoga to the sound of soothing music.

Chen Yu was kneeling on a yoga mat on one leg, with both hands on the floor. She lifted her other leg as high as she could behind her, arching her head and back.

"Do you want to learn yoga with me?"

"Given your current physical condition, yoga is quite a suitable exercise for you."

Yan Feifan replied softly, "I do fitness exercises."

Hearing this response, Chen Yu ignored him and focused on her yoga.

More than ten minutes later, at 12:45 PM, Chen Yu finished.

She put away her yoga mat, changed out of her workout clothes and into her daily attire in the restroom, then put on her white lab coat.

"Xiaomin has already lost about ten pounds these past few days. Her moon face, in particular, has slimmed down noticeably."

Chen Yu waved her phone at Yan Feifan and asked, "Want to take a look? Her beauty is starting to emerge."

Yan Feifan shook his head, then said quickly and without a hint of hesitation, "Mr. Chen, I already have a girlfriend."

"It’s Yu Suye. You know her."

"So fast?"

Chen Yu was very surprised and couldn’t help but ask, "She made the first move, right?"

Yan Feifan nodded his head firmly twice, confirming her guess.

"That girl certainly has a sense of urgency. She knows it’s best to strike first."

Chen Yu muttered to herself, then said nonchalantly, "Well, you can date her for now. If it’s not a good fit in a few months, just break up with her."

"By then, my Xiaomin will have turned back into a beauty."

Seeing that she wouldn’t give up, Yan Feifan changed the subject. "Mr. Chen, what’s the schedule for this afternoon?"

Chen Yu casually explained, "For you, I’ve specifically scheduled six hand tendon surgeries for this afternoon and evening."

"These six patients all have old injuries. Their previous tendon treatments weren’t handled properly, so they came here seeking me out for my reputation."

"You’ll just follow me. You don’t have to do anything but stand by and watch me operate..."

Chen Yu looked into Yan Feifan’s eyes and said with a hint of provocation, "They all say you’re a genius, that you can learn anything instantly and understand with just a hint."

"I’d like to see just how much of my skills you can master without me holding your hand through it."

Yan Feifan let out a soft "oh" and stated, "Mr. Chen, I will do my best to learn."

At this moment, he recalled what Yu Suye had said the previous night. "Mr. Chen, Yu Suye is an attending physician and has been studying under Mrs. Qin for quite some time. She is more than capable of performing a digit replantation surgery."

"Mr. Chen, could you arrange a digit replantation surgery for her?"

Chen Yu rolled her eyes and said coldly, "Did Dr. Qin Ying ask you to come beg me?"

Yan Feifan quickly explained, "No, no, this is my own personal request. It has nothing to do with Mrs. Qin."

"If it’s inconvenient for you to arrange it, Mr. Chen, then just forget it."

Chen Yu huffed lightly. "I thought so. With her temperament, she wouldn’t ask someone else to do her bidding."

She looked at Yan Feifan with amusement. "Arranging a digit replantation surgery for Yu Suye isn’t that difficult."

"The problem is, I’d be taking on a certain amount of risk. What if this new girlfriend of yours botches the surgery on me..."

Yan Feifan hurriedly assured her, "Mr. Chen, Yu Suye’s skills may not be on my level, but she’s still a cut above the other attending physicians."

"I can watch over her surgery from the side to make sure no accidents happen."

Chen Yu scoffed, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "You’re still just a resident. According to hospital regulations, what right do you have to act as a supervising doctor? In the end, it’ll still be me doing all the hard work."

She asked him directly, "Kid, let’s be blunt. I’ll arrange this surgery. What’s in it for me?"

Ah...

’Blatantly asking for a favor in return? Mrs. Chen doesn’t seem like that kind of person.’

Yan Feifan studied Chen Yu’s expression. She looked serious, not like she was joking.

He said tentatively, "Treat you to a big meal?"

Seeing the derisive look on her face, Yan Feifan offered another condition.

"A designer bag?"

"Jewelry?"

"An overseas trip?"

"Cash?"

Yan Feifan listed several conditions in a row, but seeing the look of derision on Chen Yu’s face deepen, he gave up.

"Mr. Chen, just tell me what you want. Don’t play games with me, I’m not good at this."

Chen Yu said in a low voice, "If I didn’t know what kind of person you are, I would have kicked you out just for those offers."

"Those offers are simply insulting."

Yan Feifan couldn’t help but look embarrassed. Then he heard Chen Yu continue, "My condition is this: you owe me a favor."

"And there’s one more prerequisite..."

She added, "You will be in charge of the sixth hand tendon repair surgery today."

"And your performance must satisfy me."

"Are you confident in yourself?"

Yan Feifan answered softly, "Mr. Chen, I can give it a try..."

He followed Mrs. Chen out of the office and was immediately startled.

"Hello, Director! Hello, Teacher!"

The sudden greeting, shouted in unison by the dozen or so people waiting quietly outside, made the unprepared Yan Feifan literally jump in fright.

This scene made Chen Yu laugh out loud. "How about that?" she teased. "Woke you right up, didn’t it...?"
