Chapter 955: Chapter 939: Ducks Finally Go on Sale Chapter 955: Chapter 939: Ducks Finally Go on Sale If this really happened, from now on, if he’s criticized by name in front of so many people at the meetings of various hospitals, wouldn’t his seasoned face be utterly disgraced?
And it would also affect their hospital’s next evaluation.
Reputation is one thing, his dignity is another, but most importantly, as long as their main hospital remains among the top, they have absolute choice over the finest talent in the country; of course, the most advanced equipment too, all sponsored by the state for their hospital.
If they want to do better and maintain their main hospital’s edge over neighboring and other hospitals, talent and equipment are indispensable.
Plus, those few new pieces of equipment he was coveting since last year, if they could make it into their hospital, think how much confidence they would add—and the convenience it would offer them.
So he absolutely can’t allow anyone to tarnish their main hospital’s reputation, and of course, he can’t let anyone smear their name.
He’s become bald from stress over the hospital, not a single hair left on his head.

Who’s all his hard work really for, if not for the patients and the medical staff in their hospital, striving to secure better benefits for them?
Now that these two patients have been admitted, they must find every possible way to cure them.
That’s where Tang Yuxin comes in.
Director Zhu simply waved his hand, pushing Tang Yuxin onto the stage like a duck being herded, seemingly forgetting that today was her day off and that she had to attend a parent-teacher meeting for her twins.
Only when he called Tang Yuxin to his office to hand her the emergency surgery did he see her grim expression and her eyes cold as ice.
Even though Tang Yuxin said nothing, Director Zhu knew he had completely offended her.

Tang Yuxin is a doctor, she has her principles and medical ethics.
With the patients right there and the surgeries already arranged, she couldn’t possibly just leave as if nothing happened, ignoring the life and death of the patients to attend her children’s parent-teacher meeting.
So, she took on both surgeries.
They were tightly scheduled, as neither could be delayed, and Director Zhu had truly forgotten that Tang Yuxin was just one person, not two.
She couldn’t possibly perform two surgeries at once, and both were intense operations with lengthy durations—in particular, the girl with the leg injury required nearly ten hours, not to mention the patient with cerebral hemorrhage and heart disease; they wouldn’t be easy cases either.
A reputation is built up just like this, of course, but the greater the reputation, the more one has to shoulder.
The technique she once used to save Superintendent Ren’s life is now her fault, isn’t it?
The two surgeries were spaced merely an hour apart; she would spend her entire day in the OR, inevitably missing the parent-teacher meeting for her twins.
And so she stared death at Director Zhu, go ahead, keep running, she thought sarcastically.
Run all you like, you can’t escape the temple if you’ve wronged the monk.
If she was tricked this time, she wouldn’t let it go unanswered.
Back in her office, Gu Ning had already arrived, bringing with him homemade food from their home.
No matter how good the food outside was, it couldn’t match the taste of a home-cooked meal.
“Eat first,” Gu Ning also knew about Tang Yuxin’s grievances.
When he had just arrived, everyone had asked him to speak kindly on their behalf, worrying that if Doctor Tang was in a foul mood all day, it would put pressure on them too.
He handed the chopsticks to Tang Yuxin and then caressed her hair, “So hard-working, still want to be a doctor?”
“Of course,” Tang Yuxin said with frustration and resentment, as the director had taken on such big trouble without her consent—calling patients a ‘trouble’ might not be suitable, but it was indeed the case.
These two patients were more severe than Director Zhu had imagined.
A slight mishap and not only could Director Zhu lose his reputation, but even her lifetime of brilliance might be at stake.
She ate her food with determination, knowing she had to eat more.
Once she entered the OR, there would be no chance to eat, and she also suffered from hypoglycemia.
There was no cure for it; it was a condition caused by blood loss from Sang Zhilan’s push, not something that could be recovered from in just a year or two—it might take several years.
But considering her current situation, and the way Director Zhu squeezed every ounce from her, first treating her like a woman, then a man, then a superhuman and later not even as a human at all, her hypoglycemia would take an unfathomably long time to improve.
As she ate, she paid attention to a light meal, low in salt, in case she needed to drink water, and definitely avoiding too much soup.
Today she faced two surgeries, each more challenging than the last.
She couldn’t understand why not just be an ordinary doctor.
What was she thinking back then, her mind must have been out of whack, insisting on staying at the main hospital and creating all these complications for herself?
Like before, she was just an ordinary doctor; after finishing work, she could go home, do whatever she wanted.
But now, she was almost always under tremendous pressure.
After finishing her meal, she tidied up, and turning around, she saw Gu Ning still sitting there, flipping through some unknown book, unable to help, simply because he couldn’t.
Tang Yuxin sat down next to him, leaning on his shoulder and playing with his large hand.
His palm was big, and she could feel the calluses on his fingertips.
Despite his privileged background, he never became wasteful.
“I just want to go out and have fun,” she pouted, “How long has it been since I’ve gone out?”
“Where do you want to go?”
Gu Ning arranged her hair again; he had grown used to taking care of her hairstyle every day, not letting it get disheveled since Tang Yuxin loved her hair so dearly.
She used to be almost bald, coming close to losing it all.
If you lose something, you care for it more, so Tang Yuxin treasured her hair and always paid attention to her hairstyle.
Still playing with his large hand, Tang Yuxin continued, “Aunt and Sisi went to see the sea.
I haven’t even seen what the sea looks like in all my years.”
She thought about it, it seemed she really hadn’t seen the sea before.
She’d seen plenty of rivers—Blue River in Qing’an she saw every day, lots of artificial lakes in Beijing—but having grown up by Blue River’s side, she naturally knew how to swim.
However, she couldn’t swim well.
It was only during university, as a mandatory course, that she finally learned after drinking who knows how much pool water.
Otherwise, how could she have pulled Qin Ziye out of the river back then?
