Overpowered Resident Doctor-Chapter 44: Birthday Party Invitation

Yan Feifan opened his eyes and noticed a bit of light seeping through the curtains into the room.

He reached for his phone on the nightstand, which was still connected to the charging cable. He pressed the power button, and the screen lit up.

Thursday morning, 5:59 AM.

Seeing the time, Yan Feifan quickly canceled the 6:00 AM alarm he had set before bed last night.

He sat up in bed and surveyed the bedroom—it was twice as large, much more luxuriously decorated, and still very unfamiliar. After taking a moment to fully wake up, he started to get dressed.

Yan Feifan left the bedroom. He first went to the kitchen to fill a kettle and put it on to boil, then headed to the bathroom to empty his bladder, wash his face, and brush his teeth.

After the water boiled, he mixed it with some bottled water he’d bought last night to make a large glass of warm water, which he drank in one go.

Next, Yan Feifan went to the living room and began his fitness routine.

He was one round into his routine when he heard a noise and saw his sister walk into the living room, yawning.

"Feifan, what are we doing for breakfast?"

"Sis, there are a few small shops outside the complex that sell breakfast items like wontons, soup dumplings, beef noodle soup, and banmian. We can eat there this morning."

Yan Feifan explained while continuing his routine, "At the east gate of the complex, you can catch bus routes 17, 84, and 627. It’s four or five stops to the east and south gates of the Affiliated Hospital."

"The estimated travel time is fifteen to twenty minutes."

"Sis, I suggest taking a shared bike. It should take about fifteen minutes, and you get some exercise too."

"Twenty minutes... fifteen minutes?"

Yan Ziruo registered the times and muttered, "It’s only six-twenty now."

"Oh, I can still get some more sleep..."

「Yan Feifan arrived at the east gate of the complex at 6:30 AM.」

A steamer of dumplings, two tea eggs, and a bowl of wontons. He finished his meal in just ten minutes.

Afterward, Yan Feifan unlocked a shared bike near the bus stop.

He rode to the south gate of the Affiliated Hospital, arriving at 6:53 AM.

He walked briskly to the third floor of the Emergency Department, stopping in front of the Qin Ying Medical Research Office. Yan Feifan glanced at the time on his phone.

"6:58 AM!"

Yan Feifan was satisfied with his time management.

After all, it was the first day on a brand-new route. He would need to travel it a few more times, considering all the variables, to make his timing even more precise.

Yan Feifan unlocked the door and was surprised to find Wang Chuan already in the research office. His expression was dark and serious.

"Yan Feifan, you really know how to cut it close, arriving right on the dot."

Wang Chuan criticized him with displeasure, "If you tell a patient their surgery is at seven, do you also walk into the operating room at seven on the dot?"

Yan Feifan replied coolly, "Mr. Wang, you just wasted five seconds saying that."

"Shall we begin?"

Wang Chuan was so angry he felt like cursing.

But when he remembered that his relationship with this brat was still in its breaking-in period, he forced himself to hold back.

Seeing Yan Feifan start to change into his sterile scrubs, Wang Chuan, who had calmed down a bit, pointed to six plucked chickens on a tray on the workbench. "Today, I’m going to teach you several intradermal suturing techniques."

"I’ll demonstrate the first one for you!"

Once Yan Feifan had changed and approached, Wang Chuan picked up a scalpel and made an incision on the back of one of the chickens.

The incision was about twenty centimeters long.

The cut only went through the chicken skin, not damaging the muscle fibers underneath in the slightest. Wang Chuan casually showed off his outstanding control over the pressure.

Then, Wang Chuan began to suture using 5-0 black thread.

He called it a demonstration, but he intended to show off his skills and intimidate the younger doctor. So, instead of slowing down, his hands moved even slightly faster than usual. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Wang Chuan completed the suture quickly and elegantly. With a gentle pull on both ends of the thread, the suture tightened, and the wound closed instantly.

Except for the two ends, no visible stitches remained on the surface of the wound.

Through the chicken skin, one could faintly see the artistic pattern formed by the black suture line underneath.

Wang Chuan was very pleased with his demonstration.

However, in his peripheral vision, he noticed that Yan Feifan’s expression was unchanged, showing no reaction at all.

This annoyed Wang Chuan.

If this had been in the plastic surgery center, he would have been met with looks of admiration from students, assistants, and nurses, along with their fawning compliments.

"Did you not see it clearly?"

Wang Chuan asked, then immediately added in a slightly disappointed tone, "In that case, I’ll slow down by half and demonstrate it again for you."

He then added a deliberate reminder, "You’d better keep your eyes peeled this time. This is as slow as I can go."

"Mr. Wang..."

Yan Feifan interrupted Wang Chuan’s next demonstration. "To save us both time, I think it’s necessary for you to get a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of my abilities first, Mr. Wang."

"Yan Feifan, what do you mean by that?" Wang Chuan asked, slightly incensed.

Yan Feifan picked up a scalpel and also made an incision on one of the chickens.

This cut was quite long, starting from the neck, running down the back, and extending all the way to the leg.

"Mr. Wang, I have also studied the basic intradermal suturing techniques."

As he spoke, Yan Feifan picked up a needle holder and a cosmetic suture needle and began to suture.

"Although I haven’t used them much in practice, I believe I have a good grasp of them. The techniques aren’t rusty..."

Seeing Yan Feifan’s ten fingers move as if they had wings, the suture thread winding obediently through the incision, Wang Chuan’s expression changed from surprise to shock, and finally to unrestrained excitement...

When Yan Feifan put down his suturing instruments, Wang Chuan couldn’t help but applaud vigorously.

"Excellent, excellent!"

"Yan Feifan, in a single incision, you’ve demonstrated six different intradermal suturing techniques. And each one is as artistic as a textbook example."

Wang Chuan sighed suddenly. "I finally understand why Mr. Qin threw you in the Emergency Department to debride and suture wounds every day."

"Oh? Why is that?" Yan Feifan was also a little curious.

Wang Chuan said thoughtfully, "Your skills have reached the pinnacle of what can be done by the book, bordering on standardized perfection, but you haven’t developed your own style yet."

"That’s a transformation and an elevation that we can’t teach you. You can only discover and grasp it yourself through practice."

He rubbed his chin, thinking. "Yan Feifan, let’s call it a day for now."

"I need to reschedule your training plan..."

Seeing Wang Chuan about to leave, Yan Feifan quickly called out, "Mr. Wang, what about these chickens?"

"I bought them at the wet market first thing this morning. You can deal with them as you see fit..."

「A little after 11:30 AM, Wang Chuan finished a cosmetic surgery procedure.」

He stepped out of the operating room and was surprised to find Yan Ziruo waiting for him.

Wang Chuan first spoke with the cosmetic surgery patient’s family about the procedure, then walked over to Yan Ziruo.

"What is it?"

Yan Ziruo handed him two copies of an agreement.

"Mr. Wang, let’s sort out the unpleasantries before we act like gentlemen. With a property this valuable, it’s best to have everything down on paper."

Wang Chuan quickly flipped through the few pages of the agreement and saw it was basically what he and Yan Feifan had agreed upon.

He signed his name and handed one copy to Yan Ziruo.

"Satisfied now?"

Yan Ziruo put the agreement away, her expression serious. "The moment Feifan woke up from his coma, I felt like I had come back to life myself."

"Mr. Wang, you love your daughter very much. You wouldn’t hesitate to spend tens of millions on her."

"For Feifan, I’m willing to give my life."

Wang Chuan smiled faintly. "Yan Feifan is the most talented young doctor I have ever met."

"Please believe me, I am a doctor with principles and a bottom line. I will do everything in my power to guide him and protect him as he grows."

Yan Ziruo scrutinized Wang Chuan. "I’ll believe you for now, but I’ll be watching you."

Wang Chuan chuckled. "To keep a better eye on me, Yan Ziruo, would you like to come work at the plastic surgery center?"

Yan Ziruo snorted disdainfully. "Don’t think you can buy me off with other means. I’m not falling for that."

As Yan Ziruo turned to leave, Wang Chuan suddenly spoke up. "Yan Ziruo, this Sunday is my daughter’s seventeenth birthday."

"I’d like to invite you and your brother to her birthday party..."
