Overpowered Resident Doctor-Chapter 81: Adoption

The next day, Yan Feifan was back to his routine: seven in the morning to... well, six in the evening, plus unscheduled night shifts.

Wang Chuan told Yan Feifan that after consulting with Mr. Qin, they had decided to lighten his workload. This was in light of his learning and comprehension abilities, which had far exceeded their expectations.

From 7:00 to 9:00 AM was Wang Chuan's instructional time.

From 9:00 to 11:00 AM was Mr. Qin's teaching time.

From 1:00 to 4:00 PM, Yan Feifan would be in the emergency department, practicing what Mr. Qin had taught him by mainly treating patients with trauma to their extremities.

From 4:00 to 6:00 PM was designated for plastic surgery skills practice, which primarily involved treating patients with facial trauma in the emergency department.

Once Yan Feifan's plastic surgery skills were progressively recognized, his practical training would be moved to the plastic surgery center.

As for the evenings, his schedule would be flexible to accommodate actual needs, such as surgeries, remedial lessons, or extra practice.

However, Wang Chuan and Mr. Qin promised to keep at least three nights a week free of any arrangements so Yan Feifan could rest or enjoy himself.

Yan Feifan was thrilled with this new schedule.

The reason his learning and comprehension had so pleasantly surprised Wang Chuan and Qin Ying was due not only to his memory but also to the fact that he would repeatedly simulate his lessons in a world of his own imagination.

While highly efficient, this method was also incredibly draining. Yan Feifan definitely needed more time to rest...

For his practical training in the emergency department, given the significant improvement in his ability to treat trauma, he was now permitted to handle vascular and tendon injuries.

At 3:10 PM, the police brought in a patient who had attempted suicide by slitting his wrist, and he was sent to Yan Feifan.

He was a man in his late twenties who reeked of alcohol.

"Don't save me! Don't save me..."

"My girlfriend left me. I've worked for five years and haven't saved a single penny..."

"Buying a house in Binhai... It's impossible..."

"I'm just a loser... SOB SOB..."

Amidst the man's sobbing, Yan Feifan cleaned his wound.

He had to admit, the man had cut himself quite deep. Not only was the major vein in his left wrist severed, but three of his tendons were as well.

He had come just short of severing the artery in his wrist.

'His will to die must have been pretty strong at the time.'

Sighing to himself, Yan Feifan first injected an anesthetic agent around the man's wrist wound.

After waiting a moment for the anesthetic to take effect, Yan Feifan began to suture.

He started by suturing the wrist vein...

"Doctor, do you have a girlfriend?"

"We were together for six years. We got together back in college."

"SOB SOB... I was so good to her..."

Throughout the entire procedure—suturing the man's vein, tendons, muscle, and skin, then bandaging the wound—the man wept, repeating over and over how much he loved his girlfriend and how good he had been to her.

Yan Feifan remained silent the entire time.

The police officer standing by, on the other hand, would occasionally chime in with a word or two of consolation. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

After finishing the treatment, Yan Feifan picked up a tablet, pulled up a document, and handed it to the man.

The man took the tablet and glanced at it.

"Organ and Body Donation..."

"Doctor, what is the meaning of this?"

Yan Feifan said flatly, "If you're so determined to die, don't you want to do something meaningful before you go?"

The man's expression darkened. He threw the tablet onto the treatment table, got up, and strode out...

A short while later, Mrs. Xv came into Yan Feifan's treatment room.

"Mr. Yan, a complaint was just filed against you. It says you're cold and heartless, without a shred of compassion, and a disgrace to the medical profession!"

Yan Feifan chuckled. "He's in the mood to file a complaint against me? Guess he doesn't want to die anymore."

Mrs. Xv smiled too. "There is a great terror that lies between life and death. Most people who fail on their first attempt won't make a second."

"Still, it's best not to provoke people like that."

"If his thoughts take a radical turn and he decides he wants to take someone down with him, that would be very bad."

"Don't you agree, Mr. Yan?"

Yan Feifan accepted the advice. "Mrs. Xv, I'll keep that in mind. I'll be more careful in the future."

Mrs. Xv smiled. "Oh, I'm just saying. With your skills, Mr. Yan, I'm sure you can tell right away which people have bad intentions."

She then changed the subject, saying softly, "I have a niece who's being rather silly. She's been crying and begging to get double eyelid surgery."

"Mr. Yan, would it be too much to ask you to do it?"

Yan Feifan couldn't help but ask, "Mrs. Xv, I'm only a resident, not a licensed plastic surgeon yet."

"Aren't you worried that one slip of my scalpel might disfigure your niece?"

Mrs. Xv chuckled. "Mr. Yan, I've been working at this hospital for seventeen years. I trust my judgment."

"Based on your suturing skills alone, I can't recall a single doctor who's better than you."

"Besides, someone who gets daily private tutoring from the renowned Director Wang Chuan should find double eyelid surgery to be a piece of cake."

Yan Feifan said with a smile, "Mrs. Xv, just have your niece come find me in the afternoon whenever she's ready."

"Alright, thank you in advance..."

At 4:30 PM, Yan Feifan saw Xiao Man arrive at the emergency department with a middle-aged couple.

The couple, both in their early forties and wearing glasses, had a distinctly scholarly air about them.

"Feifan, let me introduce you. This is Yu Wenjun, the editor-in-chief of the commentary section at the Binhai Evening News."

"And this is Shao Fen, an illustrator!"

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you..."

After Yan Feifan exchanged a few pleasantries with the couple, Xiao Man continued, "We went to the orphanage first thing this morning, and then we all came here with Lu for her check-up."

Xiao Man added excitedly, "Oh, and Mr. Jing said the initial examination shows that Lu still has a tiny bit of residual hearing."

"Mr. Jing said that even if this residual hearing only allows her to perceive something as loud as a firecracker next to her ear, it still means she will adapt to the sound from a cochlear implant more easily than a completely deaf child."

Yan Feifan said happily, "That's truly wonderful news."

At this point, Yu Wenjun spoke up. "Mr. Yan, Lu has already been admitted to the hospital. She'll be undergoing further examinations, including a mental state and psychological evaluation."

"At the same time, my wife and I have submitted an adoption application for Lu to the orphanage..."

"What did the orphanage say?" Yan Feifan asked.

Xiao Man took over the conversation. "Given the situation with Mr. Yu and Shao Fen, the orphanage was naturally very receptive."

"But the necessary background checks and procedures still have to be followed."

Yu Wenjun quickly added, "The moment I saw Lu, I felt my heart just melt."

"Mr. Yan, my wife and I have discussed it, and we've decided to cover the full cost of Lu's cochlear implant surgery!"

This surprised Yan Feifan.

He reminded him, "Mr. Yu, the total cost will be around three hundred thousand."

Yu Wenjun chuckled. "We can afford it. We also hope this demonstrates how much my wife and I truly adore Lu."

He then stated, "Even if the adoption doesn't go through for some reason, we will not ask for the money for her treatment back."

Shao Fen also spoke up, "That's what we both agreed on..."

Yan Feifan was, of course, overjoyed by their decision...

A little after 5:00 PM, Yan Feifan received another call from Song Yan.

Over the phone, he said that everything was ready on his end and asked when Yan Feifan would be available for the part-time job.

Yan Feifan thought for a moment and decided on that very night.

Song Yan said he would send someone to pick Yan Feifan up...
