When the Doctor Uses A Hack-Chapter 729: The Night Is Long and Full of Dreams (Part 1 - Extra for Alliance Hierarch Nanyuanli)

Watching a group of medical staff bustle about, the drivers Old Yang and Old Li stood chatting beside their vehicles.

Old Yang tossed a cigarette to Old Li, "Take it easy today."

Old Li scuffed his foot on the ground and glanced at Old Yang, "You too, that ride over here scared the life out of me."

Old Yang grinned, "I told you, Director Chen from my home is around. Told you to slow down."

Old Li couldn’t help commenting, "I hear you talk about Director Chen every day, more than your own son!"

Old Yang blew a smoke ring, "If only my son were that successful, I’d be willing to work like an ox or a horse!"

"I’m telling you, Old Li, when I go out on emergency calls with your Director Chen, it doesn’t matter if it’s a 130 km mountain road or some weird, confusing alley, after so many emergency rescues, we’ve never had an issue. That’s genuinely awesome!"

Old Yang gave a thumbs-up and gestured accordingly.

After finishing, the two threw their cigarettes on the ground, stomped them out, "Let’s go, get in the car, head home! Haha… Windy snow night, a night for saving lives, every night safe and sound!"

Old Yang hummed a tune as he walked toward his own vehicle.

That’s how it is for ambulance drivers; when they see patients doing fine, their hearts swell with joy.

Chen Cang took out the storage card from the car’s onboard camera and handed it to Zhang Shuying, "Director Zhang, the treatment process is all in there. It might be of some help to you."

Zhang Shuying nodded, "Alright, Director Chen, I’ll invite you to give a lecture at our provincial women and children’s emergency department sometime."

Chen Cang smiled, "Director Zhang, you flatter me."

Zhang Shuying shook her head, "Hehe, I’m not joking."

After that, Zhang Shuying unceremoniously called her own people, "Get in the car, back to the hospital!"

Meanwhile, Xiao Lin shivered in the freezing snow, having not worn a jacket out to the emergency call.

Seeing the eager firefighter Zhou Zheng beside her, he thought and thought, then suddenly remembered there was a blanket in the car. He rushed back to fetch it.

Scratching his head and somewhat embarrassed, he said to Xiao Lin, "This… for you! You’re wearing too little; put this on to get warm."

Xiao Lin turned to see the tall, sunny-smiled Zhou Zheng and couldn’t help but blush.

The captain of the fire brigade, seeing Zhou Zheng, couldn’t resist raising an eyebrow, "This… young lady, our Zhou Zheng is a good guy. If you don’t have someone in mind, maybe give it some thought, huh?"

Zhou Zheng also gave an awkward smile.

Chen Cang too smiled, seeing Xiao Lin freezing, straightforwardly addressed He Tong and Commander Wang, "Director He, Commander Wang, we’ll be leaving now. Don’t let our Xiao Lin catch a cold; she doesn’t have anyone yet. I have to take responsibility as a director!"

Everyone lit up at this.

He Tong nodded and smiled, "Mm-hmm, young Chen, today... you’ve really saved us quite the trouble. And Xiao Lin, you’re a hero. Hurry back now, if you catch a cold, I’ll be the one to blame."

Commander Wang hurriedly interjected, "Wait, wait, wait, young lady… If you don’t have anyone, why not leave a phone number? Our young man Zhou Zheng is really great!"

…

…

On the ambulance, Chen Cang looked playfully at Xiao Lin, "Xiao Lin, how coincidental, huh? Whatever we speak of appears! I was just saying I’d set you up with someone, and here comes such a fantastic guy!"

"This comrade Xiao Zhou seems good to me, tall and upright, why don’t you consider it?"

Xiao Lin giggled shyly, "It was too dark; I didn’t get a clear look at his face. Director Chen, is he handsome?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang couldn’t help but laugh, "Haha, got a crush, have you? He’s… pretty decent looking, seems like a good match at first sight."

Xiao Lin, true to her nature, laughed and said, "Actually… I have a thing for soldiers. Standing there all clanging and handsome! And, you know, firefighters are great too, serving the people."

Chen Cang laughed heartily, "So I give him your number?"

…

…

Lately, Qin Xiaoyuan’s been feeling restless, unable to put his finger on the reason.

Turning it over in his mind, he hadn’t done anything to feel guilty about, had he?

Yet why this feeling of emptiness?

What could it be?

In the morning, Qin Xiaoyuan sat in the director’s office.

As the administrative director, who also served as the chief oncologist, Qin was busy with his routine—an outpatient clinic twice a week, ward rounds one day, department meetings another, and his schedule was packed with other tasks for the remaining time.

Sitting in the office, people continuously came in for the director’s signature.

He had gotten used to this kind of work.

Today was no different from usual.

Xiao He, who had secured new equipment for the department last year, had just finished the paperwork and came up for the director’s signature.

Qin Xiaoyuan greeted him with a smile and exchanged a few pleasantries.

He picked up the pen and casually signed.

However, just after signing, Xiao He, who was about to leave, suddenly changed his expression.

Because he realized the signature wasn’t "Qin Xiaoyuan" at all?

It seemed more and more like..."Chen Cang"?!

Xiao He was stunned and hastily came back: "Director... you signed wrong!"

Qin Xiaoyuan was startled, "What’s wrong?"

Xiao He’s smile held a hint of helplessness as he handed over the documents to Qin Xiaoyuan: "Look... your signature... I can’t quite make out what it says?"

When Qin Xiaoyuan looked at it, he was instantly taken aback!

His face reddened: "This... Director Xiao, go print another one, I wrote the wrong name."

Having said that, he promptly tore up the evidence!

After Xiao He left, Qin Xiaoyuan had a sudden realization. He thought to himself how he had been absent-minded recently, and it turned out to be because of this brat.

After mulling it over, Qin couldn’t help but laugh.

An old leader invited Qin Xiaoyuan out for lunch at noon, and he didn’t refuse.

The man was formerly a top official in the Transportation Department and later served a few years as the mayor of a prefecture-level city in the neighboring province before retiring—a successful and stable landing. Most importantly, his second son worked in the medical system under Ji Ruyun.

Qin Xiaoyuan was very conscientious, and he guessed that it must somehow involve his wife.

However...

The old leader didn’t make it explicit, only mentioning it was a family dinner.

But Qin Xiaoyuan had to catch the hint!

What does a family dinner entail?

Thinking it over, after his shift, Qin Xiaoyuan went straight to pick up his wife and headed to the restaurant together.

Seeing that both Qin Xiaoyuan and Ji Ruyun had arrived, the old leader gave them due respect, rising to greet them.

Indeed, the old leader’s children were all present.

No wonder the old leader said that today was a family dinner.

The old leader was sixty-five this year, his eldest was in the capital, his second son was at the Health Commission, and the youngest, a daughter, was reportedly a doctoral candidate at Nankai University, set to graduate this year.

Upon arrival, it was natural to exchange pleasantries.

Qin Xiaoyuan said, "Elder leader, you’re looking in great spirits!"

Ji Ruyun, on the other hand, was eyeing the third daughter: "This must be Xuan Xuan, right? Truly, she has blossomed stunningly with time!"

Xuan Xuan also smiled sweetly and dished out a flattery: "Thank you, Sister Ji, you look more and more youthful by the day, never changing."

After the round of polite greetings, the old leader suddenly said, "Xiaoyuan, I heard you’re heading to Dongyang Medical University? Have you selected someone for your current position?"

The moment Qin Xiaoyuan heard that, his brow furrowed.

This was quite a jump. The old leader’s second son was at the level of a department head, at most a vice commissioner. And now, he was suddenly aiming for the position of director at the Second Provincial Hospital, which certainly wasn’t going to be easy.

But Qin did not blurt out his thoughts, "Leader, you’ve stumped me there. As for the arrangements of the higher-ups, I really don’t know. However, I’ve heard that there might be some shuffling of other directors. Maybe you should inquire about it."

The old leader smiled, "Hmm, I’ll look into that. But when the time comes for a recommendation, you’ll have to help me out, won’t you?"
