Zhu Yanyi led them downstairs to the public phone booth to call Gu Jingtian. After understanding Zhu Yanyi’s intent, Gu Jingtian asked, “Are you sure you can treat leukemia?”
In her heart, she thought: If my little junior sister can really cure leukemia, her medical skills must be dozens of times better than those of us senior brothers. Yet, she felt genuinely happy.
“I am sure,” Zhu Yanyi gave a firm answer. She could treat it; she just needed to adjust the method slightly.
Gu Jingtian knew Zhu Yanyi never boasted. Since she gave a definite answer, it meant it was definitely possible. Without hesitation, she told her to go directly to the Dean’s practice chamber of the Capital Second Hospital to find the Dean. She would handle the other arrangements.
Zhu Yanyi did not ask how Gu Jingtian would handle it. She simply led Hun Junlan and the others directly to the fourth floor of the outpatient building to find the Dean’s practice chamber.
Upon reaching the practice chamber, Zhu Yanyi knocked. Hearing a voice say, “Come in,” she pushed the door open. The Dean of the Capital Second Hospital, surnamed Zhu, saw Zhu Yanyi and smiled. “Little Divine Doctor, it’s rare to see you again.”
Zhu Yanyi stepped forward, shook hands with Dean Zhu, and then introduced the four people behind her—Hun Junlan and the others. She got straight to the point: “Dean Zhu, my senior brother should have called you, right?”
“He has,” Dean Zhu nodded seriously. “But Little Divine Doctor, I have only one request. I hope you can treat the patient here at the Capital Second Hospital.”
Zhu Yanyi understood Dean Zhu’s thoughts. Although the Capital Second Hospital was a key hospital, it was not as famous as the Capital Hospital. They needed something to make a name for themselves.
Zhu Yanyi looked at Dean Zhu deeply, then smiled. “Dean Zhu, for me, it doesn’t matter where the patient is treated. But you know I am a doctor at the Capital Hospital. You need to coordinate this with my senior brother.”
“Of course.” Dean Zhu knew this well. She also knew the relationship between Zhu Yanyi and Gu Jingtian. As disciples of the same master, their bond was far stronger than any professional tie. Trying to poach Zhu Yanyi was impossible. “I have discussed this with Dean Gu. I only asked to hire you with a heavy reward to research the terminal illness of leukemia. Once the patient is successfully treated, you will return to the Capital Hospital.”
“Did my senior brother agree?” Zhu Yanyi asked with a smile.
Dean Zhu chuckled, looking a bit embarrassed. “At first, he didn’t agree. He wanted us to transfer the patient there. But I told Dean Gu the truth. The Capital Second Hospital needs a focus. The Capital Hospital has Dean Gu and you, Little Divine Doctor, so it already has its own characteristics. But we do not. I hope the Capital Second Hospital can develop its own specialty. If we can cure this leukemia, we can transform into a cancer research hospital.”
Zhu Yanyi knew this was actually the best choice. Every hospital exists to serve patients, but having a specialized focus provides patients with more options and security.
Zhu Yanyi thought for a moment. “Since you have already agreed on the terms, I have no objections. Can Dr. Fang Junhua, the attending physician for this patient, serve as my temporary assistant? Is that a problem?”
