The Enhanced Doctor
Chapter 906: Raising the Stakes and Expansion
(Thanks to Anlin Xiaoxiao for the moon ticket encouragement)
Even though Xu Yino knew she couldn't beat Liu Banxia in tying knots, she still played a round under Qiaoqiao's urging.
Tying knots with both hands simultaneously did have some impact, but the final result was still Liu Banxia winning decisively. Qiaoqiao watched happily, now truly understanding Liu Banxia's "medical skills."
What else could Xu Yino and Liu Yiqing do? They could only bully Tang Dou's four kids. They were too cute, so they just squished and played with them.
The next morning, they arrived at work early.
When the two girls walked into the emergency center, they looked sheepish. Because they knew something big was going to happen today, and they were the culprits.
Liu Banxia arrived a bit later, carrying a large bag.
"Come on, Xu Yino, gather everyone together," Liu Banxia shouted after changing into a white coat.
Xu Yino helplessly glanced at him and called everyone else over. It wasn't just their little group of six; the other interns and trainee doctors were called too, but limited to general surgery.
This was also an expanded solution after yesterday's discussion; training needs to be unified.
Others watched with interest, not knowing what Liu Banxia was up to. But it seemed Liu Banxia hadn't stirred things up for a long time?
"It's a new semester, so there should be new vibes," Liu Banxia said.
"I don't have any other thoughts, just giving everyone a little gift. Later, you can pick what you like, don't be polite with me."
Li Hao reacted the most enthusiastically, directly stepping up to open the bag.
Seeing so many children's small chopsticks inside, he was a bit dumbfounded, not knowing what it was for.
"Excited? Pick a pair; these will be our tools for eating," Liu Banxia said with a grin.
Li Hao was still a bit confused, but he understood that there seemed to be no choice in the matter. They were indeed eating tools, so he took a pair first.
Li Hao set a good example, and everyone gathered around, now each holding a pair of children's chopsticks. Xu Yino and Liu Yiqing felt a bit guilty and hid in the back after picking up their chopsticks.
"As surgeons, we need to train our hands appropriately. But sometimes we get busy and forget about training."
"From now on, use these small chopsticks to eat. Try to be steady, accurate, and ruthless when picking food, without dropping any food or rice. Once you're used to it, I'll find even smaller chopsticks for you."
"Keep it up; you're all good comrades. If other surgical interns and trainees are interested, feel free to get one in the lounge."
"Don't be shy; there's even a fun element to it. I picked a pair myself, with little dog patterns on them, they're quite cute."
Hearing this, people understood what was going on.
Actually, sometimes at the hospital, to save time, people eat directly with spoons. Liu Banxia's tactic was quite ingenious, creating some challenges for the interns during mealtime.
Though children's chopsticks aren't particularly thin or small, just slightly thinner than normal, Liu Banxia's demands were highโno dropping food.
Moreover, Liu Banxia also mentioned that there'll be smaller ones in the future, which seems to be the real test; now is just a warm-up.
"What's got into the big boss? Why suddenly this idea?" Miao Rui murmured gloomily.
"Who knows, the big boss is always unexpected. Was there any situation yesterday? I told you four to rest whenever necessary," Xu Yino led them properly.
"Yesterday was alright; the car accident victims weren't too serious, except one serious heat stroke patient still lying in the ICU," Li Hao said.
After speaking, he examined his chopsticks. Trying them out, he felt slightly unsteady, possibly due to psychological reasons.
"Looks like the big boss has plans for the upcoming work, and we'll have peaceful days ahead," Huang Bo said helplessly.
"Does Teacher Liu have lots of tactics?" Chen Hongmei asked curiously.
"Four words: Prepare for the unexpected," Huang Bo said seriously.
"It's like being questioned during surgery. Here's a suggestion for you: spend time reading anatomy books, prepare well, and study surgeries," he added.
The interns agreed, having learned that Liu Banxia indeed likes to defy conventions.
They were chatting when they saw the cardiology and neurology interns also grab small chopsticks from the bag. Relieved, they thought, 'At least we're not the only ones suffering.'
"Don't blame me; Director Chen is the one who arranged it," Liu Banxia began to shift the blame.
"Proper training is very helpful. Having nimble hands gives us more confidence during surgery," Chen Xuehai spoke bluntly.
"Of course, I couldn't think of such an idea, only routine hand training. Director Liu's idea is great, integrating training into daily life, really nice."
The interns were dumbfounded, what the heck? Just the two directors playing around like this? You can't do that.
Xu Yino and Liu Yiqing felt a lot more relaxed, at least for the next few days they could live peacefully, without people finding out they were the masterminds.
"How did you figure it out?" Wang Chao asked curiously.
"Just fiddling around, anyway, it's always good to practice a bit more." Liu Banxia said.
"Rest properly during the day today, then enjoy two nights of good sleep. You haven't really had a proper rest yet, have you?" ๐๐ป๐๐ฎ๐๐๐๐๐ค๐ซ๐ฎ๐.๐ฌ๐๐ข
Wang Chao nodded pitifully, "I really don't dare to rest, I'm afraid I'll dread going back to work. Honestly, it's been quite grueling."
"That's for sure, if there are observers that need special attention, mark them for me. I also need to go check the wards upstairs, Teacher Wu is doing an examination for my patient today." Liu Banxia said.
"There's really nothing needing special attention, the critical ones are in ICU, got a couple of long bone fractures, but nothing urgent yet. Just keep an eye on today's admissions, and be attentive when the time comes." Wang Chao said.
Liu Banxia nodded, waved to Liu Yiqing and Xu Yino, needing to take them to see patients that require special care.
One is Rou, who trusts Liu Yiqing a lot. The other is the patient he did the TEM surgery on, also Xu Yino's follow-up patient.
Seeing Liu Banxia come over, the Bao family naturally welcomed him warmly, also met the other two sons of the Bao family. As for why they have three kids, it's not something Liu Banxia needs to care about.
He left Liu Yiqing here to talk with Rou, while checking the condition, Liu Banxia led Xu Yino to Bei's room.
The atmosphere was a bit worse than the Bao family, but still better than before. They realized it's not the time to blame the child, what's happened can't be undone, just try to remedy it.
Today is the thorough check-up day, Liu Banxia's arrangements were very considerate, only gratitude expressed.
"Actually, if the VIP ward is done well, it seems you can really make quite a bit of money." After coming out, Liu Banxia said.
"Teacher Liu, then you have to put in the effort. Such high-standard VIP, the average patient really couldn't afford." Xu Yino said.
"You're being naughty again, later I'll tell them you're the one who's been organizing chopstick practice, how about that?" Liu Banxia asked with a smile.
Xu Yino was speechless, why so petty?
"How's the situation today?" Liu Banxia asked after arriving at the female patient's ward.
"I'm a lot better than yesterday, can I be discharged now?" The patient asked.
"Wait a bit, do a blood test to check, if there's no inflammation you can be discharged tomorrow." Liu Banxia said.
"Mainly worried that after going home, you might not manage your diet well, as your intestine still has wounds. No matter how tempting, you have to hold back."
The patient nodded with a smile, actually she really didn't feel like someone who had just undergone surgery recently, not even feeling any pain now.
"Has Doctor Xu also told you the things to be cautious about later?" Liu Banxia continued to ask.
The patient's mood dropped, she nodded.
The things to watch out for aren't just dietary issues, this illness could relapse at any unpredictable time.
"You still have to maintain a good mood, we'll send someone over shortly for the blood test." After speaking, Liu Banxia led Xu Yino out of the ward.
"Sigh... sometimes when I see her, I feel she's quite pitiful." Xu Yino sighed.
"It's often like this, those admitted here, who would be happy to be in hospital? Hey? Liu Yiqing, down already?" Liu Banxia asked.
"Yeah, Rou is doing well, no bad reactions after the dressing change." Liu Yiqing said.
"You two need to work harder." Liu Banxia said.
"Slept okay last night? Tonight be prepared for some tough moments, if there's any situation in the ward, get there as soon as possible."
"Teacher Liu, that's no trouble for us." Xu Yino said gladly.
"Oh, getting impressive huh? Want me to up the challenge?" Liu Banxia smiled and asked.
Xu Yino didn't dare speak anymore, in front of the big boss, it's better to stay low-key.
"Go to ICU and inquire about the heat stroke patient from yesterday, stretch your legs, think of it as exercise." Liu Banxia said.
Xu Yino nodded.
Running errands is better than being tortured by the big boss.
She was a bit troubled, the current big boss seems even tougher to deal with. Must work hard, not that catching up to the big boss is feasible, don't think about it, just don't lag too far behind.
