Is there no limit to this doctor's skills?

Chapter 33 Ordinary People in Different Circumstances!

"What just happened?"

"Why would she let you sew it? Because you're handsome?" Liu Chuntao hesitated for a long time before finally asking.

Liu Chuntao really didn't think Guo Ziyuan was much better than him technically.

Guo Ziyuan replied casually, "Brother Tao, it's because your skills are too good and you stand too high. It's not as down-to-earth as me with the patients."

Why?

This cannot be taught; there is no specific spiritual lineage involved. It depends entirely on an individual's ability to read between the lines and their communication skills.

It also has a common name: empathy.

Guo Ziyuan hurriedly said, "Brother Tao, let me tidy up. You go and rest first, and I'll come find you later."

Liu Chuntao laughed, feeling Guo Ziyuan's comfortable patting of his chest: "Hey kid, what brand of lip gloss are you wearing? I'll buy some next time!"

Guo Ziyuan didn't even look up, continuing to tidy up: "Chuntao brand lip gloss, a 30-year-old brand with a great reputation, everyone who has used it says it's good."

Speech therapy?

Anxiety disorder?

I also worked part-time as a psychologist?

This was something Guo Ziyuan hadn't expected.

……

After tidying up the workbench, Guo Ziyuan put the equipment and trash back in their places and left.

Liu Chuntao was chatting with the chief resident of the emergency department.

Upon seeing Guo Ziyuan, Lan Shufang, the chief resident of the emergency department, smiled and said, "Dr. Liu, your little brother who has been so kind to you is here."

"This is the first time I've seen your trauma surgery department bring such an incision into the operating room."

Liu Chuntao replied, "Young surgeons all need to practice on simple patients to grow; everyone goes through this process."

"Brother Tao, Sister Lan, good afternoon." Guo Ziyuan greeted them warmly as he stepped forward.

"Buzz!" Guo Ziyuan felt his phone vibrate against his body at just the right moment.

Guo Ziyuan picked it up casually and took a look, and was surprised to find that it was a message from "Anyue" whom he had not contacted for a long time.

But Guo Ziyuan only glanced at it.

He's still working as an apprentice.

"Xiao Guo, is your girlfriend urging you to get back together?" Lan Shufang was short and had neat, ear-length hair; she was quite outgoing.

Guo Ziyuan put his phone back and looked at Liu Chuntao nervously: "Brother Tao, which department is responsible for sending out the girlfriend that Sister Lan mentioned?"

"I want to go, but there aren't even any female students in our orthopedics department."

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuntao was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand to strike: "Go tell your master, don't come looking for me."

Lan Shufang then understood why Liu Chuntao had brought Guo Ziyuan with him: "Little Guo is so interesting, no wonder he has won your favor, Dr. Liu."

Guo Ziyuan knew that his role was coming to an end.

He left the conversation to Liu Chuntao, who nodded and said sincerely, "Xiao Guo is very sensible and an excellent person. Dr. Lan, if you have any good resources, please keep an eye out for them."

"It would be best to find someone pretty, someone whose looks he can pull off."

Lan Shufang's phone rang. She instinctively frowned and took a step to the side upon hearing the call: "Dr. Liu, it's the doctor on duty in the department calling. I'll go over first."

Lan Shufang was also a chief resident, and Liu Chuntao understood her situation, so he quickly said, "You go ahead with your work, we'll talk again next time."

After Lan Shufang had walked a few steps away, Guo Ziyuan asked with a hint of gossip, "Teacher Liu, you and this Dr. Lan? Should I call her 'sister-in-law'?"

The resident physicians are all very busy, how could they possibly have time to chat idly here?

Liu Chuntao became a little embarrassed: "Don't gossip."

"They're just colleagues."

Guo Ziyuan kept it in mind: "Yes, my sister-in-law is just a colleague now."

"Get lost," Liu Chuntao rolled his eyes. "Don't cause me any trouble."

"Okay." Guo Ziyuan immediately obeyed: "Teacher Liu, I'm going to see the teacher in a bit. If you need anything, call someone else."

"Thank you for today." Guo Ziyuan knew that today was not his emergency shift; Liu Chuntao had taken the opportunity from someone else and given it to him.

Liu Chuntao made an OK sign with a flourish, said nothing more, and walked away with a carefree air.

He is currently only a chief resident, and Lan Shufang is also a chief resident. Even if they have feelings for each other, they dare not show them.

I don't even have time to date.

……

The changing room for trauma surgeons was dimly lit.

Guo Ziyuan stood against the cabinet door, replying to An Yue's message: "It's my teacher's birthday tonight. I made plans with my junior brother, so I definitely can't come."

"Tomorrow at noon."

"The advisor has agreed, but hasn't specified a time."

The message from Anyue was actually quite brief.

"Dr. Guo, what about that you mentioned last time? Have you received a response? Could we meet in person to discuss it?"

An Yue quickly replied, "Okay, then you go ahead with your work."

However, she wasn't as 'casual' as she was during their first chat: "Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Guo."

"Just call me Guo Ziyuan, we're about the same age." Guo Ziyuan took the initiative in the conversation.

He wondered to himself if he had swung the stick too hard last time and hit the girl on the back of the head, causing it to bleed.

However, a swift and decisive approach is necessary.

An Yue was just an excuse for him to "level up" in a prefecture-level city hospital; Guo Ziyuan would never passively "lick his boots"!

After thinking for a moment, Guo Ziyuan still asked, "Are you in a hurry?"

"If you're in a hurry, I can arrange a time with my advisor in advance."

An Yue: "There's no rush."

"Well... I need to submit my proposal early next year... I really need a research topic right now."

A few days ago, Lin Huanhuan, a kind-hearted woman from the Department of Gastroenterology, shared some background information about Anyue with Guo Ziyuan.

Lin Huanhuan said:

In fact, An Yue originally had the opportunity to stay and work in Kyoto.

However, if you look up Dr. An Yue's papers, you'll find that her authors are listed relatively late in the list, which shows that she is actually quite capable.

Guo Ziyuan asked at that time: Sister Lin, what does it mean that the paper is listed at the end?

Lin Huanhuan: It's the literal meaning of "research group workplace".

The research topics were all assigned by the boss, and the order of the papers was also arranged by the boss.

Our hospital faces considerable competition. You told Anyue last time that you could help her transfer preliminary data to a prefecture-level city hospital. Is that true or false?

Don't try to fool that young girl...

Guo Ziyuan thought for a moment and realized that the "Peking Union Medical College Hospital Incident" that came to light in later generations was just an isolated case, but there might be many other unreported cases.

Feeling that he had indeed used An Yue, he said, "How about this, I'll send you a message after we finish celebrating Master's birthday, and we can talk face-to-face."

"Around eight o'clock, you can decide the time and place."

An Yue replied, "Okay! Thank you."

Even geniuses like this have their troubles.

……

It's near the Yangtze River, with a small courtyard and private rooms.

Willow catkins drifted in the air, and the hot wind blew in like a steamer; only the air conditioning in the private room seemed to offer a respite.

Guo Ziyuan and "Ding Sanliang" each drank nearly four liang (200ml) of liquor.

Ding Xianqi blushed as he spoke eloquently and pointed out the flaws in the world, which made his teacher's wife shake her head and take her daughter Shanshan home.

"Guo Ziyuan, you are not my first student. Your senior brother is named Luo Heng, and he works at Enshi Central Hospital now."

"Guo Ziyuan, you're not the smartest student I've ever taught."

"Your junior, Liu Guanghui, has much better overall qualifications than you, and he will most likely be able to pursue a doctorate in the future."

"Guo Ziyuan, you're not the dumbest student I've ever taught. Your second senior brother, Tan Yonghua, now works in Daoxian County, a small county under Yongcheng City in Hunan Province... I shook my head at his aptitude..."

"At most, you're the best looking. At most, you're the most insecure and arrogant type."

"But what's the use of being the best looking? Surgical expertise doesn't discriminate based on appearance, and doctoral supervisors don't discriminate based on appearance when accepting students."

"The value of scientific research papers is higher than that of practical experience; this is the essence of how the industry operates."

"You're the unluckiest one again. Look at your classmates, what kind of people are they? Why do you think you're qualified to pursue a PhD?" Ding Xianqi tilted his head and sent this soul-searching question.

Ding Xianqi's voice suddenly dropped again: "I'm not a doctoral supervisor either, and you can't even compete with me..."

Upon hearing this, Guo Ziyuan stood up to help Ding Xianqi: "Master, you've had a bit too much to drink. Let's go for a walk together."

"Liu Guanghui, please put the wine away."

Ding Xianqi is a bit "high" today: "I'm not drunk, Guo Ziyuan, I'm very sober, more sober than ever before."

"Ordinary people can only rely on talent and luck, and you have neither!"

"What can I do?"

Guo Ziyuan lowered his voice, knowing that Ding Xianqi had it tough too; he was just an ordinary person at Guo Ziyuan's level!

He could at least ensure his own safety and that his wife and daughters wouldn't go hungry, but he couldn't even hope for a family full of successful students.

Guo Ziyuan said softly, "Master, you got it mixed up and didn't have time to update it in time. Now I have a chance."

Ding Xianqi, slightly intoxicated, his eyes bloodshot, said firmly, "So what if there's a chance? It's not up to me!"

Ding Xianqi pointed to his chest, shook his head to affirm, but said weakly, "It's not up to me."

The current Associate Professor Ding Xianqi is not the Professor Ding Xianqi after his enlightenment. He is just an ordinary associate professor and a master's supervisor at the Provincial People's Hospital, not a doctoral supervisor.

He cannot pave a smooth road to success for his students.
