When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 478: Have you offended someone recently?

After work, Jiang Tao casually snapped a photo of the tendon rehabilitation guide from the emergency department and shared it in his mentor’s group chat with the message, “A guide made by our hospital’s own doctors.”

However, everyone seemed to be busy and no one responded, so Jiang Tao had to let it go.

Time passed, day by day, and everyone gradually became a part of the small community of the Second Provincial Hospital’s emergency department.

Through their time together, everyone had learned some gossip: Qin Yue’s father was none other than Qin Xiaoyuan, the director of the Second Provincial Hospital!

This was truly shocking!

Qin Yue suddenly became the apple of some people’s eyes.

Jiang Tao, too, became increasingly attentive to Qin Yue, whether he meant to or not.

Boy meets girl – there’s nothing wrong with that, but each time, Qin Yue was lukewarm towards him, which made Jiang Tao very curious as to why.

Especially when he told her she looked “young for her age,” Qin Yue seemed unhappy every time.

This left Jiang Tao a bit puzzled!

But it didn’t matter, he believed that with true sincerity comes success; Qin Yue would eventually be moved by his efforts.

However, gradually, he noticed that Chen Cang and Qin Yue seemed to be getting very close!

Every time Qin Yue saw Chen Cang, she looked very happy!

This gave Jiang Tao a sudden clue!

Could it be…that Chen Cang and Qin Yue were actually boyfriend and girlfriend?

So, Jiang Tao continued to play the detective and began to probe further!

And it’s true, there’s nothing too difficult for the one who sets his mind to it. Under Detective Jiang’s investigation and research, he indeed discovered many clues: he often noticed Chen Cang and Qin Yue hanging out together after work, sometimes even engaging in intimate gestures like walking arm in arm!

At this moment, Jiang Tao suddenly saw the light.

No wonder!

Past events could even be explained now.

For example, why Qin Yue didn’t like him, because she already had someone.

But this made Jiang Tao somewhat depressed!

Why would such a kind, beautiful, and adorable girl like Qin Yue fall for Chen Cang?

Is it just because he is better looking? Taller? Has thicker hair?

Can’t you pay more attention to substance?

As a surgeon, we should compete in the operation theater!

With that thought, Jiang Tao sighed.

He couldn’t help but reflect: Chen Cang truly was a winner in life; indeed, being handsome comes with its perks.

After graduation, he snagged a director’s daughter. No wonder the doctors in the department treated him that way; there was a reason after all…

In his sadness, Jiang Tao turned to his brother who studied traditional Chinese medicine to vent his troubles.

After telling him about Chen Cang’s situation and asking for an analysis of the reasons,

his brother remained silent for a while before slowly saying:

“Brother Jiang, actually, a tall stature suggests robust bones, while thick hair indicates an abundance of kidney qi. The Inner Canon states: ‘The kidney governs the bones and stores the essence, and its glory rests in the hair!'”

At this point, the brother started to advocate:

“Doctor Chen’s tall and strong stature, robust bones and dense hair show that his vital energy is vigorous and kidney qi is plentiful. And besides, he’s good-looking. Which girl wouldn’t fancy him? After all, he’s both pleasing to the eye and practical!

Ah… listen to a brother’s advice, nourish your kidneys more. How about this, I’ve recently concocted a new kidney-strengthening and bone-fortifying medicine, give it a try. I guarantee you’ll be full of life and vigor!”

After some hesitation, Jiang Tao didn’t block his friend. Although this person liked to come up with strange recipes and coax him into taking his concoctions, the person was not too bad… right?

Back in school, he had been his own guinea pig for the medicines, yet after three years of taking them, other than his stomach often acting up, there was no change in his hair!

But… what his brother said made sense!

Jiang Tao resigned himself. If he couldn’t win on looks, he’d have to make up for it with skills.

Chen Cang had been quite relaxed during this time; for sure, what people call you is important.

Ever since “Teacher Chen” was replaced with “Director Chen,” his whole demeanor changed, walking as if he were floating on air.

“Director Chen” rolled off the tongue more readily in the Second Provincial Hospital’s emergency department, and Chen Cang enjoyed hearing it more and more, especially when Xiao Qin said it—it felt the most comforting!

Every time Chen Cang heard Qin Yue call him “Director Chen,” he felt a surge of pride.

Moreover, Qin Xiaotian loved to use the term too, and Chen Cang really enjoyed it, making for a perfect match in their self-deceiving duo.

However, whenever Qin Xiaoyuan secretly overheard his daughter on the phone, why was it always one “Director Chen” after another? What on earth was this “Director Chen”?

Thinking this, Qin Xiaoyuan pulled Ji Ruyun over and said, “Wife, did our Xiao Qin break up with Chen Cang? Why is there a ‘Director Chen’ now?”

Ji Ruyun immediately became alert upon hearing this.

They broke up so soon?

She hadn’t even had her wrinkle treatment yet!

With the health insurance busy with year-end settlements, Ji Ruyun had been saying she’d wait until that busy period was over, but they couldn’t break up so quickly!

Thus, a new habit emerged for the couple in the evenings; they started to wait by the windowsill for Qin Yue to come home!

But, after several observations, they saw that it was still Chen Cang dropping Qin Yue off, wasn’t it?

Then the two of them realized: perhaps this was some kind of term of endearment!

But really, what’s with the youths these days? Why call him “Director Chen”? What did that mean?

Never mind, never mind.

Old Qin felt it wasn’t important.

However, he always found this “Director Chen” odd, he couldn’t quite put his finger on why.

The next day, Qin Xiaoyuan went to work as usual, and Tan Liguo suddenly walked in.

Lately, the two had been getting along quite well.

After entering, Tan Liguo looked at Qin Xiaoyuan and asked, “Director Qin, have you offended anyone recently?”

Qin Xiaoyuan was taken aback and responded to Tan Liguo, “Secretary Tan, what did you just call me?”

Tan Liguo was also taken aback and said, “Director Qin, Head Director Qin!”

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoyuan thought, why does this sound so familiar?

He felt like he had heard it somewhere before but just couldn’t remember.

That’s how it is when you get older, your memory declines…

With that thought, Qin Xiaoyuan said, “That… Secretary Tan, could you call me that a few more times?”

Tan Liguo was stunned. What’s with Qin Xiaoyuan… What’s going on?

Still, he cooperated and repeated it several times, “Director Qin, Director Qin, Director Qin!”

Qin Xiaoyuan instantly slapped his thigh!

He was absolutely furious!

He finally knew why it felt so familiar.

This brat was getting too big for his britches.

The nickname “Director Chen” was already out there!

And that little wretch, daring to call out anything at all.

No wonder it sounded so strange lately, something felt off, and now he finally realized the problem lay right there!

With these thoughts, Qin Xiaoyuan decided he needed to have a good talk with that boy Chen Cang.

They weren’t even married yet and he was already thinking of taking over?

And his treacherous little cotton-padded jacket, so quick to throw its weight around?

Seeing Qin Xiaoyuan’s reaction, Tan Liguo hesitated a bit. Maybe Qin Xiaoyuan didn’t like being called the director, as it seemed too impersonal?

With this thought, Tan Liguo felt it made sense, “Director Qin” indeed sounded too distant, so he simply sighed and said, “Old Qin, have you gotten into some kind of trouble recently?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoyuan was stunned!

Frowning at Tan Liguo, “Secretary Tan, what do you mean by that?”

Tan Liguo felt he should cooperate with Qin Xiaoyuan, there was no need for a cold war, they should maintain a good relationship, so he waved his hand and said, “Just call me Old Tan.”

“Here’s the thing, I attended a meeting this morning and happened to run into a deputy director from the Health Commission. He told me to advise you to keep a low profile these days, so I rushed back to ask you if anything happened.”
