Chapter 13: It Was You Who Saved My Daughter
Page 1/3
Jin Mingcheng hurried over, his face clouded with dark clouds as if he were brewing a storm of anger. Fang Zhiyan looked at him with feigned confusion.
Only when Jin Mingcheng drew near did Fang Zhiyan call out, “Director Jin, what brings you here?”
“Nonsense!”
Before Fang Zhiyan could finish, Jin Mingcheng snapped angrily at the doctor, pointing a finger at his nose and scolding him.
“Tell me, what on earth are you doing?”
“How dare you use a gastroscope to retrieve a bottle cap? If the esophageal mucosa gets scratched, the only way to stop the bleeding would be to perform open-chest surgery to remove the esophagus.”
“As a doctor, have you ever reflected on your actions?”
“I was upstairs saving a patient, and you took matters into your own hands?”
Fang Zhiyan looked at him, amusement flickering in his heart.
If he didn’t know that Jin Mingcheng was deliberately causing trouble, Fang Zhiyan might have actually thought he was a decent man.
After venting his anger, Jin Mingcheng took a deep breath.
At last, Xu Qiushuang, who had been standing nearby, found a moment to speak up, “Excuse me, doctor?”
“You?”
“Who are you? A relative of the patient?”
Jin Mingcheng noticed Xu Qiushuang beside him, narrowed his eyes, and contemplated how to divert the relatives’ anger toward Fang Zhiyan.
“Do you know? Fang Zhiyan is just an intern doctor. If he sent you to the gastroscopy room, he’s putting you in danger!”
“Our hospital’s gastroscopy technology is still in its infancy; even the doctors aren’t fully familiar with the procedure.”
“What if something goes wrong?”
Xu Qiushuang looked at him in puzzlement.
Her younger brother had waited so long in the emergency room without any doctor attending to him.
Finally, Doctor Fang arrived and swiftly removed the bottle cap from her brother’s throat.
Where was this so-called director, only spewing slander at Doctor Fang?
It must be that good doctors like Fang Zhiyan threatened their interests.
Xu Qiushuang pursed her lips, then took the bottle cap from Fang Zhiyan’s hand.
“Director, I understand what you’re saying.”
“But the problem is, the bottle cap has already been removed.”
She raised her hand, revealing the bottle cap.
“Nonsense!”
Jin Mingcheng instinctively wanted to curse, but the moment he saw the bottle cap, he was dumbfounded.
No way.
You actually managed to take it out?
In an instant, Jin Mingcheng was stunned.
Was this even plausible?
That location, that bottle cap—was it reasonable?

“This is impossible!”
“How could this be?”
Jin Mingcheng’s face was full of disbelief.
He looked at the bottle cap, then at Fang Zhiyan, his brow furrowing deeper.
Finally, he snorted coldly and turned to leave.
The patient had already been saved; as the director of emergency, what use was he now?
He had only wanted to use ten minutes to make Fang Zhiyan experience a crisis.
Then he planned to find an excuse to end Fang’s internship early and get rid of him.
But he hadn’t expected Fang Zhiyan to have the skill to retrieve the bottle cap within ten minutes!
He could only chalk it up to luck.
Jin Mingcheng was full of resentment.
Fang Zhiyan turned to Xu Qiushuang.
“The bottle cap has been removed from your brother’s throat, but he still needs to be hospitalized for observation. Dr. Cui will arrange the follow-up care, so don’t worry.”
Xu Qiushuang nodded, her face full of gratitude toward Fang Zhiyan.
After all, Fang Zhiyan was just an intern doctor. He turned and returned to the emergency room.
Meanwhile, everything that had transpired fell squarely into Xue Shan’s eyes.
He reported everything to Luo Dongqiang.
Luo Dongqiang could only accompany his daughter here at night.
He was now on the night shift and happened to run into Fang Zhiyan.
Hearing about Fang Zhiyan’s procedure, Luo Dongqiang was somewhat surprised.
Beside him, Tang Ya said, “It seems this Fang Zhiyan has some real skill.”
“Our daughter must be the one he saved, no doubt.”
“You should show your appreciation to the man who saved your daughter.”
Luo Dongqiang nodded, thought for a moment, then gestured to Xue Shan, “Go and ask Fang Zhiyan to come here.”
Xue Shan nodded and quickly turned around.
At the same time, Fang Zhiyan returned to his emergency room.
Seeing him come back, nurse Shen Qingyue lowered her voice, “Doctor Fang, be careful, Director Jin is still angry.”
“You saved this patient, so he’s probably unhappy.”
“Strange,” Fang Zhiyan shook his head.
“I save a patient, and doctors get upset.”
Shen Qingyue blinked, glanced at Fang Zhiyan.
Seeing that he was unfazed, she turned to tend to her own tasks.
As soon as he entered the office, Fang Zhiyan encountered a male doctor.
Gu Tao.
This man, who had stolen his credit, was now glaring at him fiercely.
“Do you need something?” Fang Zhiyan asked.
His completely harmless expression and gentle tone made Gu Tao feel like punching cotton.
Gu Tao stepped forward, trying to intimidate Fang Zhiyan with his height.
But to his surprise, Fang Zhiyan seemed taller than him.
Clearing his throat to hide his embarrassment, Gu Tao spoke coldly, “You’re Fang Zhiyan?”
“Yes, and you have something to say?”
Fang Zhiyan continued.
Gu Tao grabbed his collar, about to threaten him.
But before he could speak, a shadow appeared at the door—Xue Shan slowly walked in.
“Which one of you is Doctor Fang Zhiyan? Please come with me to the ward.”
Gu Tao’s face changed slightly, and he instinctively released Fang Zhiyan’s collar.
“I am,” Fang Zhiyan raised his hand. When Xue Shan noticed him, Fang Zhiyan turned to Gu Tao.
“Doctor Gu, I don’t understand why you grabbed my collar. Were you going to hit me?”
“I would never hit you.”
Gu Tao ground his teeth silently and reached out to pat Fang Zhiyan’s collar.
“Your clothes looked dirty; I was just fixing them for you.”
“Well then, thank you very much,” Fang Zhiyan said with a smile.
“If you have nothing else, why not let go?”
Gu Tao hurriedly released his grip, a trace of embarrassment on his face.
Fang Zhiyan ignored him and walked straight to Xue Shan’s side.
“Which ward?”
“Please come this way.”
Xue Shan was polite and led Fang Zhiyan to a single room.
Fang Zhiyan raised an eyebrow, sensing an opportunity.
This was the main event!
As they entered, a middle-aged couple sat inside, and on the bed lay the patient—the little girl he had saved.
Fang Zhiyan hurried over, “How is the patient’s condition?”
Luo Yun had already regained consciousness and was lying in bed, curiously studying the man before her.
Gradually, the voice that had saved her and the voice of the man speaking now began to match in her mind.
She blinked, growing more curious.
“Are you the one who saved my daughter?”
Luo Dongqiang asked.
Fang Zhiyan hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently.
“Yes, that was me.”
