"You, you... this is outrageous! How can such an irresponsible doctor even get into a renowned hospital like Tu Ya. If I don't give you a lesson today, it would be my fault."
The woman was so angry that she was shaking, and she actually took out her cell phone to make a call.
Her mother-in-law had almost the same attitude, wanting to teach Zhou Can a lesson.
Only her father-in-law had some ability to read the room, and his social experience was clearly more abundant than that of the two women. He could tell that Zhou Can was unfazed and not intimidated in the slightest.
He hastily tried to signal to his daughter-in-law with his eyes.
Regrettably, the daughter-in-law, being in a fit of rage, completely ignored him.
"Hello, Director Xue, this is Chen Jinyue's daughter-in-law, I would like to report an issue to you..."
Under her annoyance, she actually made a call right there to complain about Zhou Can.
And she went directly to Director Xue to lodge her complaint.
It seemed that the one who knew Director Xue Yan was her father-in-law.
The call ended rather quickly.
After the beautiful woman hung up, her face looked even worse.
Needless to say, she didn't get the result she had hoped for.
"What did Director Xue say?"
Her mother-in-law asked anxiously.
"She told us to look for the attending doctor or the primary physician." As she said this, the woman's arrogance and sense of superiority were completely gone.
What is called a societal knockdown?
She must be feeling it right now.
In her opinion, Zhou Can was just a training resident, and they were familiar with Director-level Xue Yan. To deal with a training resident, wouldn't it be just a matter of a sentence?
Reality taught her what it means to keep a low profile.
At this moment, Dr. Zhao came over.
He was probably here to change dressings for a patient.
The beautiful woman's eyes lit up, ready to complain to Dr. Zhao about Zhou Can again.
Because the last time she complained to Dr. Zhao, it had been effective.
Who knew that when Dr. Zhao saw Zhou Can, his previously condescending and cold face was completely different. Instead, he quickly squeezed out a smile and took the initiative to greet Zhou Can.
"Dr. Zhou, are you settling in well with Director Xue's team?"
"Not bad!"
Zhou Can responded with a smile.
"That's good. Following Director Xue, you're better off than being an attending here. I haven't had a break all morning, and right after lunch, I had to change dressings for the patient in bed 20. All these trivial matters, there's little to learn."
Dr. Zhao was genuinely envious of Zhou Can.
And having witnessed Zhou Can's strong capability yesterday, when he spoke to Zhou Can today, their roles were reversed. His entire demeanor was one of flattery.
Adults are just that pragmatic.
"You're busy!"
Zhou Can greeted him and went straight to the doctors' office.
The beautiful woman swallowed back what she was about to say as a complaint against Zhou Can.
She had witnessed the whole flattery from Dr. Zhao towards Zhou Can.
It was obvious that in just one short day, there had been a change in the status and identity between Dr. Zhao and Zhou Can.
Complaining to Dr. Zhao about Zhou Can at this point would be insane unless she was out of her mind.
She wondered to herself, what exactly happened yesterday?
That made such a surge in that trainee doctor's status.
Watching Zhou Can no longer being someone she could push around, she could only back down.
"Dr. Zhao, you've come at just the right time! My husband has severe chest pains, could you prescribe some more painkillers?"
She requested from Dr. Zhao.
"Didn't I just prescribe it this morning? For your husband's safety, pain medication cannot be used continuously. It's normal to have some pain in the wound after the anesthetic wears off from surgery. Think about it, the skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscles are cut open, and then sewn back together, how can it not hurt during the recovery process?"
Dr. Zhao's explanation was consistent with the nurses'.
In fact, both doctors and nurses possess high professional knowledge. They would generally agree to any reasonable request by a patient if they could.
"Hang in there! The pain will gradually subside. The more you fear the pain, the more it will hurt, so you need to keep a strong will."
After saying that, Dr. Zhao went to bed 20 to change dressings for another patient.
This issue didn't draw much of Dr. Zhao's attention.
And so, another day passed.
The next morning, when Zhou Can arrived at the department for work, the atmosphere felt somewhat tense.
"Eh, why haven't I seen Director Xue and Deputy Director Lu today?"
Zhou Can felt perplexed.
"There's been an incident with a patient!"
Doctor Long whispered in a low voice.
"Ah... one of our group's patients?" Zhou Can had reviewed the patients in his group; several were high-risk and required close care.
Which patient could have had an incident?
Could it be the patient who had the cardiac artery aneurysm clipping surgery yesterday?
"It's not one of our patients but one from Director Le's team. I heard it's a case of chest and arm muscle tear, and after the suturing surgery, the patient had an unrelenting high fever this morning and developed septicemia. Currently, all the head physicians in the department are consulting on this case. If they can't figure it out, they might have to call in an Internal Medicine expert for a consultation."

Doctor Long was filled with concern.
The fact that all the heads of the department were alarmed by this incident indicated the seriousness and urgency of the patient's condition.
Hearing this, Zhou Can was stunned.
The patient in bed 19 had ended up having problems after all.
There had been premonitory signs yesterday.
The patient had been continuously complaining of chest pain and was irritable, which wasn't entirely due to being spoiled.
Any ischemic necrosis in any part of the body would cause unbearable pain and discomfort.
Just then, a nurse rushed in.
"Dr. Zhou, Dr. Zhou, they just called from the meeting room, asking you to come to the consultation immediately." The nurse didn't understand why, with so many directors and deputy directors consulting together, they would specifically request a training resident to attend.
