Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The lights of the ambulance of Golden Deer Health Services Pte Ltd blinked as it was driven slowly into Lower Groove Clinic.

There was no need for the ambulance to use its siren. Miao Tansheng immediately came forward and asked the patient to come down from the back.

The patient today was a girl about twelve or thirteen years old. She had long hair and had a smile that brought out the best in her cute feminine features. She attempted to take a selfie as she sat in a wheelchair.

“Fei’er, stop playing your phone.” The parents who followed along looked anxious, and the mother actually sounded rather serious.

The girl pursed her lips and said with a lisp, “Whad can I do if I don’ play wid my fone? Keeb shouting in pain an’ cry?”

“At the very least, don’t be in such a hurry to take a selfie. Isn’t this lesson enough? Because of this selfie business, you broke your leg. Seriously, you… I’m telling you now, your Achilles tendon is ruptured. Even if it’s repaired, it won’t be as good as it was before, and we can’t tell whether you can dance again.”

“It’ll be good if I can’d danse.” The thirteen-year-old girl’s voice seemed to be low, but came out much louder than intended.

The mother felt her blood pressure spike at that moment. Her face became as red as a cooked mantis shrimp, and she was ready to extend her hand and slap the girl lightly. She scolded her, “What are you saying now? Did you actually think it’s easy for me to send you to dance class three to four times a week?”

The girl pursed her lips and quickly shouted, “Ow, my leg hurds.”

“Hurry up and send the patient inside.” Miao Tansheng was immediately anxious when he heard this.

……

“Old Miao.” The father watched his wife and daughter enter the clinic and called out to Miao Tansheng before he looked around before he whispered, “Old Miao, we’re straightforward people, so let’s not beat around the bush. Are you sure Doctor Ling from Yun Hua Hospital is the one performing this surgery?”

The patient’s father was the same age as Miao Tansheng, and he was also a doctor.

“Of course, how can I lie about that?” Miao Tansheng straightened himself up to full height. When he saw the father’s worried face, he said gently, “This clinic belongs to Doctor Ling’s family. Doctor Ling is inside the clinic now, and he will meet you later. You have seen Doctor Ling before, right?”

“Yes, I’ve seen him before.” Old Hong sighed lightly in relief.

“It’s good that you’ve seen him before. With how he looks, it’s impossible for me to search for a body double or imposter, right?” Miao Tansheng was joking, at the same time, he was reducing the stress of the parents.

He had been working in the clinic over the past few years. While his skill level did not improve by much, his capability of comforting patients and their families had improved a lot.

Old Hong pursed his lips, but he still did not laugh. He looked slightly relieved. He relaxed a little and said slowly. “If you hire an actor who looks like Doctor Ling, you will go bankrupt.”

“Haha… that’s true.” Miao Tansheng’s fish eyes twitched a little, and he suddenly felt hurt.

“There’s no problem with the equipment and facilities, right? You once said that this clinic has not performed any surgery before, right?” Old Hong raised his head and looked around again. After Lower Groove Clinic was renovated, it definitely looked good. In fact, it could even be considered beautiful, despite its size.

However, aesthetics did not mean successful surgeries, so Old Hong still had many concerns.

A new operating theater and a clinic that was just only introducing its surgery programme deducted a lot of marks in terms of reliability. If not for Miao Tansheng mentioning Ling Ran, Old Hong would never bring his daughter here for treatment.

However, from another perspective, if Ling Ran was really the chief surgeon, the clinic could be in shambles for all Old Hong cared.

Miao Tansheng knew Old Hong’s thoughts, so he simply tried his best to comfort him, “The operating theater in the clinic and equipment have been checked many times, and the anesthetist also works for Doctor Ling. You also know that Doctor Ling rarely performs Achilles tendon repair technique nowadays, right? Coincidentally, the clinic intends to launch their own surgery programme, so there are a few slots…”

“Hmm,” Old Hong answered before he sighed, “Doctor Ling performs Achilles tendon repair technique so well, but he’s not doing it anymore.”

“That’s because Doctor Ling’s hepatectomy is also ranked top in the country.” Miao Tansheng shrugged.

“He is really good, sigh…” Old Hong sighed heavily again.

He was the same age as Miao Tansheng, and they both were considered colleagues. However, even if they both were doctors, it would be rather difficult for the patient’s father to invite Ling Ran to perform Achilles tendon repair when he did not know Ling Ran personally.

Ling Ran only offered consultations for half a day every week, and the Emergency Medical Center did not allow the patient to choose their doctor. Therefore, unless Old Hong was willing to wait for three to four days, he generally did not have any way to invite Ling Ran for surgery.

Naturally, Old Hong did not have Ling Ran as the only choice. According to his original plan, he wanted to send his daughter to Shanghai for treatment. Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center was the top orthopedic hospital in the country, so an Achilles tendon repair was not a problem to them.

However, it was precisely because he knew what was the advantage of Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center over other hospitals that Old Hong understood just how proficient Ling Ran was in Achilles tendon repair.

Therefore, when his friend made a call and mentioned Ling Ran, Old Hong immediately changed his plan.

With Ling Ran serving as the chief surgeon for his daughter’s Achilles tendon repair, why should they go to Shanghai?

It was only when his daughter was about to receive surgery that Old Hong became worried about his daughter, so he kept asking questions.

“I’ll bring you to Doctor Ling.” Miao Tansheng had been working for the clinic in many things, so he knew how to handle the patient’s father, and this was also the first surgery for the clinic, so he was in particularly high spirits.

Old Hong immediately nodded, and he followed Miao Tansheng inside.

The operating theater of the clinic was designed to be at the middle of the west wing. When the patient and her family entered, they entered a small, open waiting room.

At that moment, Ling Ran was sitting on the couch placed in the center of the waiting room. Both his long legs were stretched far apart from each other, and he gave off an incredibly magnificent and imposing presence.

It was Old Hong’s first time meeting Ling Ran face-to-face. He felt a pressure slam upon his shoulders before it was quickly removed.

When he saw a doctor who was skilled, capable, and had such a strong, imposing presence, as a doctor, Old Hong naturally felt intimidated. But as the patient’s family, he felt really relieved.

“Doctor Ling, I heard your speech during a seminar, and it left a deep impression on me. I could not forget it even after a long time…” Old Hong took a few steps forward quickly, and he surpassed Miao Tansheng in the blink of an eye.

Miao Tansheng had been thinking about how to break the ice and how to save the situation if Ling Ran spoke too straightforwardly, but now, he did not know whether he wanted to cry or laugh.

He stared at Old Hong, who looked like a fan. Although he knew that Old Hong was putting up an act for Ling Ran, he still felt uncomfortable. Even if he wanted to act, why would he act like he was not satisfied at all in front of him, instead of acting like a fan in front of Ling Ran?

Once a person started thinking a lot, it was impossible for his mood to improve.

“Doctor Miao, are you okay?” Su Mengxue, who came from Yun Hua Hospital, saw that Miao Tansheng was in a daze, and she kindly called out to him.

“Oh… It’s Nurse Su. Thank you for today, too.” When Miao Tansheng saw the pretty Su Mengxue and her big chest, he subconsciously had his intellect as a city man awakened.

Su Mengxue smiled sweetly and said, “It’s not hard for us. It’s just a surgery, and we receive a lot of allowance. But… are you jealous of Doctor Ling, Doctor Miao?”

“You should say that I am envious, jealous, and full of hate.” Miao Tansheng pretended to be calm and smiled.

Su Mengxue nodded lightly and smiled. “Actually, there is nothing to compare. Doctor Ling is just young, good-looking, skilled, has good surgical senses, is hardworking, and has a bright future…”

“But?” Miao Tansheng tried to follow up with the conversation.

Su Mengxue laughed. “No buts. Anyway, you just need to do your part well. Don’t overthink things. Bye…”

Miao Tansheng really wanted to flip the bird right then.
