Chapter 39: Chain Tasks
When Chen Cang was in the operating room, his cellphone would usually be on silent. After stepping off the elevator, he pulled out his phone to find dozens of missed calls.
There were calls from Chen Bingsheng, Tian Xianglan, Chang Lina…
Chen Cang was startled.
Has my identity as a rich second generation been exposed?
But no, I’m not a rich second generation…
He returned Chen Bingsheng’s call, “Boss, what’s up?”
Chen Bingsheng replied irritably, “Are you done with the surgery? Hurry up to the emergency hall.”
Chen Cang didn’t askwhy and simply said, “Alright!”
Chen Bingsheng, suddenly remembering something, added, “Come to the doctors’ office first.”
He needed to ask Chen Cang what kind of trouble he had gotten into—if these people had come for revenge, wouldn’t there be a problem the moment they met?
So, Old Chen stood anxiously at the office door.
There were too many things happening in the emergency department, asking why would just be a waste of time. Chen Cang hurried to the office and saw Chen Bingsheng right away.
Old Chen quickly pulled him into the office and asked with a serious face, “Have you caused any trouble recently?”
Chen Cang thought about the two points he had just lost in goodwill. Do Director An and Brother Qian count?
Beyond that, he thought long and hard, but nothing else came to mind.
“No, not at all!”
Old Chen frowned, “There’s a group of people outside, all of them with tattoos and bare arms, looking like they’re here for you. Are you sure you haven’t caused any trouble? Think carefully—have you provoked any patients, their families, or anyone on the street?”
Chen Cang shook his head.
Finally reassured, Old Chen nodded, “Okay, let’s go out and see.”
Following Old Chen to the hall, they found a group of people sitting on the floor, including Old Chen, Nurse Tian, and Chang Lina.
Chencang went around to have a look and instantly recognized someone all too familiar!
Wasn’t this Tiger Chest from the “Dragon-Tiger Fight” the other day?
After all, not many people sport a huge tattoo of Guan Gong on their body.
The tiger on his chest… why does it feel strange?
Zhao Huqiu turned around and also saw Chen Cang, immediately standing up, “Master Chen! You’ve arrived!”
The followers behind him also stood up, “Master Chen, you’ve arrived!”
Chen Cang was startled by the pressing crowd and couldn’t help retreating a step.
Damn, I haven’t even been enlisted yet!
The political review issue cannot be tarnished!
You people don’t get chummy with me!
“Please call me Doctor Chen,” Chen Cang addressed the crowd, but then, seeing Old Chen beside him, corrected himself, “Call me Little Doctor Chen!”
Zhao Huqiu and the others looked perplexed, “Little Doctor Chen, alright.”
Those around them were taken aback…
Is Chen Cang actually a hidden kingpin?
Chang Lina suddenly thought about the scenes described in novels where a security guard turns out to be the big boss of a major conglomerate, a powerful figure with a dark and light side. Could it be that Chen Cang is the kingpin hidden in emergency?
As Tian Xianglan stood in astonishment, she also finally felt relieved; things weren’t bad, it wasn’t about seeking revenge or fighting, so it was negotiable…
But Chen Bingsheng frowned, pondering why Chen Cang had so many connections with these people?
Chen Cang asked Zhao Huqiu, “What are you guys here for?”
He knew Zhao Huqiu was the leader of the group.
Zhao Huqiu came forward, “Doctor, here’s the thing, can we talk in private?” “Little Doctor Chen, my boss’s sister got a cut on her leg. The bleeding’s been stopped, but when it comes to stitching… it’s on her calf. It’s not suitable for a girl to have a scar there, especially when wearing skirts. So they sent me to request your help with the stitching. We have everything prepared at home.” Chen Cang frowned, “I can’t practice medicine if I leave the hospital. It’s considered illegal practice.”
Zhao Huqiu quickly shook his head, “No, no, no, it’s not practicing medicine, it’s just friends helping each other out.”
“Don’t worry, if any issues arise, we won’t hold you responsible!”
Chen Cang still hesitated.
To be honest, he really didn’t want to get too involved with these people. After thinking it over, he said, “I’m sorry, I’m just a junior doctor, I really am powerless. You should try the provincial people’s hospital to find a specialist, or maybe look for someone at a beauty salon. They might have better solutions!” After speaking, Chen Cang prepared to leave, but Zhao Huqiu suddenly grabbed his wrist.
Chen Cang struggled just slightly and broke free!
Zhao Huqiu was suddenly taken aback.
He knew full well the extent of his own strength…
This Doctor Chen looked so skinny, so how did he just now exert such enormous strength?
However, Zhao Huqiu knew that he had come today to speak nicely: “Doctor Chen, I really have to beg you, please help me out just this once, alright? In the future, if there’s anything you need, just say the word.”
Chen Cang turned to leave.
But suddenly, Zhao Huqiu grabbed Chen Cang around the waist.
He cried out with a “wa”!
“Doctor, Save my mom, please! I’m begging you…”
The surrounding lackeys were all sharp-witted!
At once, they all started to cry out as well.
“Doctor, please, save our godmother…”
Suddenly, the entire hall burst into activity…
Chen Cang was even more baffled…
Wasn’t it the boss’s sister?
How did she become your mother!?
This guy is playing me!
Looking at the crowd around him sobbing, with snot and tears everywhere…
Especially Zhao Huqiu, acting with such emotion, tears and snot flowing as he cried, with the drool coming down his mouth splashing onto Chen Gang’s white coat…
Tian Xianglan couldn’t bear it for a moment.
Chang Lina suddenly felt pity for this boss…
She became even more suspicious of Chen Gang’s identity as the man behind the scenes. Could Chen Cang really decide someone’s life and death just like that?
Isn’t that too terrifying?
Curiosity spread wildly, winding up like a tightly-coiled spring, and began spinning frantically…
Tian Xianglan stepped forward: “Doctor Chen, if there’s anything you can do, please help them out. Their mother must be in great danger.”
Chen Cang: …
Chen Bingsheng also came forward: “Let’s talk it over, what’s wrong? If your mother has an issue, you can come to the hospital. Explain the situation first…” With tears and snot all over his face, Zhao Huqiu embraced Chen Cang’s waist: “My mom wants to see Doctor Chen! She must have Doctor Chen go… Doctor Chen, please do me this kindness!”
ChenCang:
Chen Bingsheng: “Doctor Chen, how about this, I’ll go with you. Anyway, it’s almost time to get off work.”
Looking at Zhao Huqiu, who resembled a rascal, Chen Cang still felt he was unreliable.
[Ding! Chain quest: Zhao Huqiu’s request, do you accept?]
Chen Cang was momentarily startled, a chain quest?
Does that mean if I accept, there will be follow-up tasks?
Chen Cang said, “Let go of me first. With so many people watching, it doesn’t look good.”
Zhao Huqiu: “I won’t let go unless you agree…”
“Doctor, I swear, my boss’s sister really cannot come out right now, and the head of the Dermatology Department of the Provincial People’s Hospital is also there. I swear! Just go and take a look, see if anything can be done! If you think it’s not possible after checking, I’ll drive you back, how about that?”
A crowd of people weeping tragically in the hall drew more and more onlookers, some even began taking pictures.
Chen Cang thought for a moment, realizing there was no loss in checking, and if it was not working out, he could just come back.
After all, he had only heard of forced buying and forced selling, but never of forced stitching or forced treatment!
So he said, “Release me, get them to stop crying; I’ll agree to take a look, but I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to treat her.”
The moment Zhao Huqiu heard this, he became ecstatic, turning to the others and said, “Alright, stop crying!”
The group was obedient, immediately closing their mouths. Their acting skills just now were something even young actors couldn’t match.
But Zhao Huqiu was truly a veteran actor of his field.
He stood up and gave Chen Cang a big hug: “Thank you! Doctor Chen, I’m so grateful!”
Meanwhile, Wang Qian, with a face full of grievance and complex emotions, returned from the operating room. Hearing the commotion, he happened to see this scene, his eyes bulging like a bull’s!
