Chapter 29: Chapter 28 He is not from the Medical College!
The sweet-voiced, pretty nurse instructed Gu Yu with a serious expression, her sparkling large eyes adorable even though she was wearing a mask.
"Okay!"
Gu Yu nodded vigorously, committing every word the nurse said to memory.
This nurse seemed quite young, probably a nursing major from the Medical College doing her internship here.
"Hehe, the nurse sister is really pretty!"
Pu Tongren\'s anaesthesia had just worn off, and he was still groggy, his lips trembling uncontrollably as he spoke.
What was meant to be a compliment came out sounding like a creepy harasser.
The nurse gave Boss Pu a cold look but then smiled at Gu Yu.
"Why don\'t you speak less? You\'re trembling like an old lady who chewed too many chicken feet."
Gu Yu curled his lips, knowing this guy couldn\'t restrain himself around beauties.
"Okay, call me if you have any issues! Just use the call button by the bed!"
The nurse, holding a clipboard, stood up to leave when suddenly Boss Pu, looking a bit embarrassed, called out:
"Miss, wait! I have a question. I can\'t get out of bed for twenty-four hours, so what do I do if I need to pee? Should I press this button to call you? I must admit, I feel the urge right now!"
"... "
The nurse sister paused for a moment, seeming to suppress her emotions.
Three seconds later, she exhaled.
"Ah, I can\'t help you with that. You can have your friend help you, or maybe buy some adult diapers!"
With that, she left the ward.
As soon as the nurse had finished, Boss Pu\'s gaze swiftly turned to Gu Yu, extending a hand from under the covers to tightly grasp Gu Yu\'s hand.
"Laosi, we\'re brothers, right? So, about that..."
His expression was embarrassed, sorrowful yet earnest, because what he had to say next was simply too embarrassing!
Luckily, Gu Yu saw through his final plea of resistance and gently patted the back of his hand before he could plead further.
"Don\'t worry, Boss! I\'m off to buy you diapers!"
Saying this, he sprinted out of the ward, leaving Boss Pu in shock!
Just kidding! There\'s no way he was going to handle the urine!
They\'d have to make do with diapers!
Watching Gu Yu flee, Boss Pu leaned back against the head of the bed, his face a picture of despair.
Who would have thought he\'d be wearing diapers again as an adult!
This was something he had never anticipated.
"Young man, relax, you\'ll get used to them!"
The grandpa who had just undergone a kidney biopsy in the next bed chuckled at him.
The grandpa lifted a corner of his blanket and patted his diaper.
"Fuyong Kang, so comfortable! Whenever and wherever you need, just go!"
Boss Pu pursed his lips and gave the grandpa a thumbs up, his face tortured into a grimace.
Meanwhile, Gu Yu had just stepped out when he received a call from Qin Shan.
"Hello! Laosi, how\'s the Boss doing now?"
"The surgery went very well! Safe and sound like a father and son!"
Gu Yu joked with a smirk.
Qin Shan, hearing Laosi joke, knew the Boss must be alright.
"Okay! The woman who attacked the Boss has been taken by the police! Later I, Laoer, and a cop will come to the hospital to probably make an injury report or something."
"I asked the officer, the Boss is seriously injured, that woman will have to be sentenced to at least three years!"
Yu Laoer also moved closer to Qin Shan\'s phone to talk with Gu Yu.
"The Boss really encountered a benefactor this time! Isn\'t this a compensation of several hundred thousand?"
"Hehe, makes sense! The Boss is going to strike it rich!"
Knowing the Boss was alright, their mood finally relaxed, and they began to consider the Boss\' compensation issue.
Gu Yu\'s mood also lifted greatly, but he didn\'t forget the task at hand.
"You guys hurry over! I\'m off to buy some diapers!"
"What? Diapers? Why the heck would you buy those?"
"Hello!?"
"Beep—beep—beep—"
Gu Yu hung up the phone, too lazy to explain, knowing they would understand once they got there.
The Affiliated Hospital was simply too big, its myriad corridors intertwining like a labyrinth.
If not for the blue navigation signs on the floor, he would have definitely gotten lost!
Passing through the inpatient department, Gu Yu headed to the emergency department, planning to exit through the door there.
This area was a stark contrast to the quiet atmosphere of the inpatient department, doctors and nurses dashing about, everyone\'s expression grave.
In those waiting rooms, children cried, adults howled in pain, relatives argued with the medical staff at the doors.
Oppressive! The atmosphere was utterly oppressive!
It was hard to imagine that these medical staff had to deal with emergencies in such an environment daily!
The physical and mental drain must be enormous!
Gu Yu, head bowed, prepared to slip through a nearby passageway.
"Hey! That student! We finally found you!"
A somewhat familiar voice called out from behind him, and intuition told Gu Yu the voice was directed at him.
Turning his head, sure enough, he saw the two girls he had met earlier in the observation room.
The girls, clutching a large medical clipboard, ran up to Gu Yu.
"Student! We finally found you! After Mr. Dai finished the surgery, you rushed off, and we didn\'t even know your name!"
The girl with the bun was slightly out of breath, her eyes gleaming with excitement.
She and her friend had searched the entire surgical area but couldn\'t find this classmate, and several team leaders they asked didn\'t know him either!
He probably was a medical student from another school, like Fuchen University or Jitong University!
Haidong occasionally had academic exchanges with these two schools.
But they rarely visited the Haidong Medical College Affiliated Hospital!
She thought she would never see that handsome guy familiar with the closed abdominal drainage surgery again!
Seeing him again! It was such a joy!
"Oh, my name is Gu Yu. Is there anything you need?"
Gu Yu shrank his neck. He was standing right under the air conditioning vent, with the cold air pouring into his neck.
"Gu Yu! His name is Gu Yu! Heehee, now I know his name! It sounds so nice!"
"Heeheehee! The first successful step! Go, Qin Wanwan!"
After hearing Gu Yu\'s name, the two girls excitedly tugged at each other\'s arms, like starstruck fans hearing about their favorite idol.
Gu Yu was puzzled. What was so exciting about knowing his name?
He wasn\'t a superstar or anything!
"Cough, cough! Gu Yu, my name is Qin Wanwan, can I add your Feixin? We can discuss medical issues together later!"
Qin Wanwan mustered up her courage, took out her phone, opened the Feixin interface to add friends via QR code, and eagerly held it up in front of Gu Yu.
"Discuss medical questions? I\'m not interested at all! Maybe you should talk to someone else?"
Gu Yu slipped his hands into his pockets, the chilly air from the air conditioner making him shiver all over.
Discuss medical issues?
He definitely did not want to discuss the distribution of facial muscles and bones with Qin Wanwan!
All he wanted to do now was to quickly leave and buy diapers for Boss Pu!
His resolute refusal stunned Qin Wanwan!
A profound sense of loss surged in her heart.
Gu Yu\'s knowledge of clinical procedures was so familiar, who was he kidding saying he was not interested?
He probably really wasn\'t interested in her, just putting it nicely!
"Oh... okay then..."
Qin Wanwan dejectedly retracted her phone.
Her best friend became anxious. How could Gu Yu refuse to add Qin Wanwan on Feixin after his name had been disclosed?
Huo Xiaoyi had to wingman for her dearest friend, Wanwan!
"Gu Yu! Do you realize the girl you just rejected is the school beauty of Haidong Medical College?"
Huo Xiaoyi tilted her head, looking at Gu Yu with a disappointed expression.
Gu Yu really didn\'t know how to seize the opportunity!
Although he was handsome, her Wanwan was not any less!
They would make a good match!
"Er... if you guys are done, I really need to go! I\'m in a rush to buy diapers! Maybe next time!"
Gu Yu was almost becoming numb from the air conditioning.
He hastily ended the conversation and ran towards the emergency department exit.
If he didn\'t leave now, he might end up needing emergency care himself!
As for the school beauty, she probably wasn\'t as pretty as his school beauty girlfriend, right?
Watching Gu Yu\'s figure disappear, Qin Wanwan stomped her foot in frustration.
She had just been rejected for the first time ever when she tried to add a boy on Feixin!
That was too much of a blow!
"What\'s wrong, Wanwan?"
Just then, Professor Dai Zhengguo appeared behind the two, looking kindly at his two highly esteemed students.
"Mr. Dai, do you know Gu Yu? He\'s the young man who was scheduled to observe your surgery!"
"Which school is he from? Just now, Wanwan tried to add him on Feixin and he rejected her!"
Huo Xiaoyi eagerly asked, spotting her respected Mr. Dai.
"Gu Yu? You mean the handsome guy who came with his roommate for surgery? He\'s from our school!"
Dai Zhengguo also didn\'t know Gu Yu\'s name offhand and had to think for a moment to connect the dots.
Speaking of which, he had been looking for that student!
He had a big question he wanted to ask Gu Yu!
"Ah? From our school? Then why haven\'t we seen him?"
Huo Xiaoyi looked surprised, and so did Qin Wanwan.
"It\'s normal not to have seen him because that young man is not from the Medical College. Which exact college, I am not sure, but I know he\'s from Haidong!"
"Ah?? Not from the Medical College?"
Huo Xiaoyi and Qin Wanwan exchanged looks, suddenly feeling as if Mr. Dai was pulling their leg.
If Gu Yu wasn\'t from the Medical College, how did he know so much about complex surgical procedures?
"Yes, that\'s my question too. He\'s not from the Medical College, but he knows a lot about medicine! I am quite puzzled myself!"
"And to tell you two, if it weren\'t for him correcting my mistake today, I might have misdiagnosed! It could even have led to a medical accident!"
Recalling the scene at the cafeteria that noon, Dai Zhengguo felt very emotional.
He had been too confident in his own judgment, not doing a thorough pre-emergency check on the patient! He almost misjudged a tension pneumothorax!
If his negligence had led to a student dying on his watch,
a stain on his career would have been the least of his worries; he likely would have dwelled on it for decades!
It was Gu Yu who had timely corrected him!
"Ah!???"
Huo Xiaoyi and Qin Wanwan\'s mouths fell open in shock.
Gu Yu had even corrected Mr. Dai\'s mistake!
This was a lead physician at a top 10 national hospital, a medical professor from a prestigious 985 university!
"Stop gawking, do you two want to meet him? I know which ward his roommate is in, I\'ll take you girls to see him later! I also want to examine him more closely!"
Mr. Dai smiled gently, the two women nodded eagerly.
