Chapter 279: Suddenly receive emergency patients
Chapter 279: Suddenly receive emergency patients
Luo Yanfen was different from the other two male doctoral students in that, even though she was older, she had problems with communication. She was even more straightforward than they were, saying whatever came to mind, which made it easy for others to misunderstand her. As a result, conflicts with patients’ families seemed almost inevitable.
Some doctors and medical students are like that; they have the medical skills, but they’re not very good with people or handling situations. Therefore, clinical teachers often hope that their students will not only be good at studying, but also adept at interpersonal relations, because otherwise, they won’t go far in their careers.
The worst is not knowing one’s own problems, believing that being a doctor doesn’t require learning how to get along with people, and thinking that as long as they do their job well, that’s enough.
And such people usually encounter problems in their personal lives as well.
Xie Wanying immediately realized that the other person must be talking to their partner on the phone.
“What did you say, that I should give up now? Do you think it was easy for me to be admitted as a doctoral student at Guoxie? You’re not asking me to give up, but now you’re telling me to get married and have children? I’m not like you; I’m not a man. Have you considered how I will find a job? My field is clinical work; I have to work in a clinical setting! You’re pressuring me with these phone calls. Today, I got a complaint from a patient’s family member—” Luo Yanfen’s eyes reddened as she mentioned the complaint from patient number 3’s family, “Do you know how much pressure I’m under? There’s a new girl, and Teacher Tan and Teacher Sun both like her, think she’s more capable than me. The problem is, she’s only 21 years old, and I’m already 28—”
Listenting to this conversation, Xie Wanying couldn’t help but recall her own past experiences, when she was also pressured to get married, to the point where it was overwhelming.
“Are you worried I won’t be able to have children if I don’t get married at twenty-eight? You’re a doctor too; you should explain this clearly to your parents,” Luo Yanfen became so emotionally charged that she couldn’t control her tone anymore and burst out angrily, “You can’t do it? You can’t argue with your parents, so what, you want to break up, is that it?! Tell me, is it?”
“Dr. Luo!” The fire door swung open with a resounding snap.
The nurse hurried in and found her, saying, “Dr. Luo, isn’t bed number 1 under your care empty? The emergency department has a patient that needs to be admitted.”
“Why are you looking for me? Find the doctor on night shift,” Luo Yanfen turned around and asked, surprised.

“The night-shift doctor has gone to perform surgery,” the nurse explained, “They said you were still in the department and it’s a bed from your group; the emergency duty doctor admitting the patient is from your group too. They’re asking you to take over the admission.”
She was off duty and yet they were asking her to admit a patient? And there was her boyfriend on the phone, pressuring her to go home and get married and have children.
Luo Yanfen felt like she was about to have a mental breakdown on the spot.
“Dr. Luo!” The nurse called out to her twice, worried she was confused about what to do with the incoming patient.
Patients, patients! That’s what it’s like being a doctor. As soon as a patient arrives, nothing else matters; one’s own affairs become secondary. Because nothing is more important than a human life, her getting married and having children wasn’t as important as a living, breathing life.
Shaking her head to clear it, Luo Yanfen felt like she was coming back to her senses and said to the nurse, “Alright! I’ll go—” After speaking, she went to put her phone back in her pocket, then remembered something, picked it up again and said to the person on the line, “I don’t have time right now, I have to admit a patient.”
The person on the other end of the phone said something in response, leaving Luo Yanfen’s face deathly pale, her legs wobbling.
The nurse heading to the ward turned around when she saw Luo Yanfen wasn’t following and shouted loudly, “Dr. Luo, hurry up, the patient is about to arrive, from the emergency department!”
