Overpowered Resident Doctor

Zhuo Xingfa's condition wasn't serious. He just needed a minor surgery to repair some ligaments and muscles.

After all, compared to the first guinea pig, his phalloplasty procedure had already undergone some improvements.

Around 3 PM, after finishing Zhuo Xingfa's examination and repair surgery, Yan Feifan, Yu Suye, and Chen Yu went to the locker room together.

Yan Feifan took off his scrub top, its back half-damp with sweat, and tossed it into the laundry hamper.

He couldn't help but sigh. "He's a business owner, for goodness sake. Does he have that little self-control?"

"He knew the consequences would be serious, so why couldn't he just hold back a little longer? One moment of indulgence, and now he needs another half a month to recover."

Chen Yu chuckled. "How could someone in his situation possibly hold back? The moment the conditions were right, he must have wanted to test it out."

Suddenly, Chen Yu reached out and poked Yan Feifan's pectoral muscle.

"Whoa, pretty solid. You're quite muscular."

Feeling harassed, Yan Feifan quickly put on his shirt, blocking her appraising gaze, and took two steps away from her.

This made Yu Suye, who was standing nearby, purse her lips to hold back a smile.

Chen Yu let out a soft snort and changed the subject. "Feifan, I heard you completely exhausted those five old-timers from cardiothoracic surgery yesterday."

"Exhausted them?" Yan Feifan was completely baffled.

"You don't know?"

Chen Yu tutted. "Dr. Liang, Dr. Gu, and Mr. Deng from cardiothoracic surgery... weren't they all working with you late into the evening yesterday?"

"Last night, every single one of them had to be helped home by their students. This morning, they all called in sick."

Yan Feifan let out a surprised "Ah!" and said, "But when I left last night, they seemed even more energetic than I was."

He then asked with concern, "Are they okay?"

Chen Yu smiled lightly. "They're fine. They were just worn out after three straight days of working on that dual-surgeon technique you proposed."

"From what I understand, after resting all morning, those old-timers all came back to work this afternoon."

This made Yan Feifan let out a long sigh of relief.

"As long as they're okay, that's all that matters. If any one of them had actually collapsed from exhaustion, the fault would have been all mine."

Chen Yu smiled faintly. "How could that be your fault?"

"The youngest among them is twice your age. They're grown men; if they don't know their own limits, you really can't be blamed."

"But, this just goes to show how impressive and appealing the dual-surgeon technique you developed really is."

"I'm looking forward to seeing this surgical method, named after you, gain widespread recognition and adoption around the world."

Yan Feifan said modestly, "Strictly speaking, it's just a clever trick built on the shoulders of medical pioneers. It's not that technically profound."

Chen Yu said with a serious expression, "Feifan, don't be so modest."

"Shortening a heart transplant surgery by two hours is a major achievement by any measure..."

As they spoke, Yan Feifan, Yu Suye, and Chen Yu finished changing their clothes.

Yan Feifan and Yu Suye were following Chen Yu, but before they had even left the locker room, she stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Yan Feifan.

"Feifan, about last time... with your help, I sent my son to a military camp to get a taste of life there, but it completely backfired."

"It only strengthened his resolve to apply to a military academy."

Yan Feifan gave an awkward, placating smile. "Well, there's nothing wrong with being a soldier. Defending the country is a glorious thing!"

"You could also have him apply to a military medical university!"

Chen Yu shot him a glare and grumbled, "At this point, we can only take it one step at a time and let nature run its course."

"Oh, right..."

As they walked out of the surgical area, Chen Yu exclaimed dramatically, "Feifan, you have to take responsibility for my niece, Xia Min!"

Yan Feifan's mouth twitched. "Mr. Chen, hasn't Xia Min pretty much recovered from Cushing's syndrome?"

"How else am I supposed to take responsibility?"

Chen Yu scoffed lightly. "A few months have passed, and she has indeed recovered quite well. Her weight has dropped to under 120, and you could say she has a very slim figure now."

"Her face has also become much prettier."

"It's just..."

Chen Yu said with some resentment, "It's still your fault. Your plastic surgery skills are too good. You turn every Dongshi into a Xishi."

"When Xiaomin compares herself to them, the difference is obvious."

"Lately, Xiaomin has been nagging me constantly, showing me your plastic surgery case files all day long."

"She's worn me down completely."

Yan Feifan couldn't help but roll his eyes. "So, after all that, this is just about you wanting me to perform plastic surgery on her."

"No problem, Mr. Chen. Just have her come in."

A smile spread across Chen Yu's face. "Feifan, thank you in advance."

"Sigh. To be honest, our whole family is against her getting plastic surgery."

"But that girl is dead set on it. No one can talk her out of it, so we can only let her have her way."

Chen Yu added a reminder, "Feifan, when you do Xiaomin's surgery, don't change her appearance too drastically."

"Make her prettier, but in a way that we, and anyone who knows her, can still recognize her at a glance."

Yan Feifan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Chen Yu thought of something else and asked, "Feifan, what about the surgical fee?"

Yan Feifan waved his hand dismissively. "Xia Min is your niece. We'll just charge her the hospital's base costs."

Chen Yu said with a broad smile, "How can I let you work for free? You have ten or twenty people in your research lab who you need to support."

"Just give her a steep discount."

At this point, Yu Suye chimed in, "Mrs. Chen, Feifan performed plastic surgery on two girls in the last two weeks."

"Their fees were 388,000 and 366,000!"

Chen Yu stopped in her tracks and let out a long breath.

"Holy shit. If I had known plastic surgery was this lucrative, I would have switched to the plastic surgery department with Wang Chuan back in the day."

"Feifan, with those kinds of fees, a single surgery could support your team for a year. You're not hurting for Xiaomin's little bit of money."

"You'd better just charge her the base costs..."

Although Chen Yu had been promoted to vice president and spent most of her time working in the main administration building...

...she still kept an office in the trauma surgery department.

For one, Chen Yu still had a dozen or so students and assistants that she couldn't just abandon all at once.

For another, Chen Yu didn't want to completely leave her clinical work on the front lines. She still tried her best to clear a day or two each week to perform surgeries in the trauma department.

Yan Feifan and Yu Suye followed Chen Yu to her new office in the trauma surgery department to discuss volunteer recruitment for the phalloplasty procedure.

Yu Suye, who was in charge of this, explained that since the volunteer recruitment notice was posted, they had received many phone inquiries, but so far, only three people had come in to sign up in person.

After examination, only one of them met the requirements.

Yu Suye said, blaming herself slightly, "I'll expand the recruitment announcement channels to let more people know about this and gather the volunteers as quickly as possible."

Chen Yu comforted her, "Su Ye, don't be anxious about volunteer recruitment. With China's huge population, there are bound to be plenty of patients who have problems with their 'ding-ding' for one reason or another."

"It's just that with problems 'down there,' our countrymen are accustomed to hiding it away and are too ashamed to mention it to others."

"I suspect there are quite a few patients secretly keeping an eye on us and gathering information about the surgery."

"Perhaps next week, they'll come flooding in..."

The three of them then continued their discussion about the phalloplasty procedure...

After dinner, Yan Feifan brought Yu Beihua to the neurosurgery lab. Together with Dr. Qiu Ge and her students and assistants, they began performing brain autopsies on the lab mice and test monkeys.

As soon as Yan Feifan arrived at the lab, Dr. Qiu informed him of something.

Xv Jiande had been issued an injunction by the Jingcheng Ethics Committee, prohibiting him from conducting human clinical trials for his infrasound awakening research...
