Chapter 1397 - 555: A Virtuous Wife Brings Fewer Calamities, the Overlooked True Deputy Chief
Zhou Can’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he didn’t say anything.
If Su Qianqian agreed, he wouldn’t stop her, but would choose to respect her words and actions.
"Sorry, Zhou Can and I have a rule: we don’t bring work home. Home is our shared haven, the most relaxing place after a tiring day at work, so please understand."
Su Qianqian, with her high emotional intelligence, might have noticed Zhou Can’s frown and directly refused.
Not only that, but her reason for rejecting Jiang Wei was also very high-level.
Separating work and home is a principle that many successful people pursue or are adhering to.
The better someone does in their career, the more stress they have and the more tired their heart is.
After work, coming home to a relatively relaxed environment is a form of freedom they long for deep down.
"Haha, I was just joking with you, sister-in-law! Your perspective is so high!"
Jiang Wei laughed it off.
"By the way, I need to go on a call with Dr. Zhou for a surgery later, so I’m heading to the canteen for a meal first! Won’t disturb you two! Goodbye!"
"Bye-bye!"
Su Qianqian waved in response.
After watching Jiang Wei leave, Su Qianqian looked at Zhou Can eating.
"Dear, do you have a surgery call tonight?"
"Yes! Need to go to the First Hospital for an esophageal fistula surgery, might be home a bit late."
Zhou Can had actually mentioned it to Su Qianqian in a WeChat message earlier, saying he’d be home late due to a surgery tonight.
"Is it just you and Jiang Wei going?"
Su Qianqian asked.
"Yes, just the two of us. Are you worried I’ll mess around outside?"
Zhou Can knew that going out late at night with a young and pretty female colleague could easily make Su Qianqian’s imagination run wild.
"I trust you’re not that kind of man. I’m worried about your safety. A few days ago, I saw a news story where a traditional Chinese doctor, despite curing many people, was arrested after being reported for practicing medicine without a license. Your surgical skills are high, but your professional level is low, and now you’re quite famous. Fame often attracts trouble, so it’s better to be careful."
Su Qianqian was once a top-tier actress, extremely popular online.
Later, due to health reasons, she was forced to withdraw from most of her career.
She deeply understands the potential risks that come with fame.
Even small mistakes can be magnified infinitely.
Stars are completely different from ordinary people, maintaining a glamorous appearance and good image in public, constantly guarding against ubiquitous spying and exposure.
"This indeed serves as a reminder to me."
Zhou Can hadn’t considered this angle since Jiang Wei was his subordinate nurse, and she had performed excellently in the past two months.
Her work ethic is solid, and her character is reliable.
He trusts Jiang Wei greatly.
However, since he has never dealt with the First Hospital, one cannot be too careful.
Zhou Can decided to bring along an associate chief physician just in case.
"Tonight, I need to make a surgery call. I’m looking for a young physician at or above the associate chief physician level to collaborate. Is anyone willing to go?"
Zhou Can directly sent a message in the Cardiothoracic Surgery group.
The esophageal fistula surgery can be either a thoracic or general surgery. If, like at Tuya Hospital, General Surgery is split into Digestive Surgery, it would belong to Digestive Surgery.
In terms of influence and appeal, he’s strongest in Cardiothoracic and Emergency Departments.
Since it’s a safeguard measure to seek collaboration, Zhou Can didn’t want Jiang Wei to know.
Adults often handle such precautionary measures discreetly, without the other party noticing, to provide protection if needed.
If nothing happens, everyone will be happy, and relationships won’t be affected.
There is another reason for seeking cooperation from Cardiothoracic Surgery.
Cardiothoracic Surgery has the most young doctors with senior and associate senior titles.
"Dr. Zhou, can I have a chance to work with you?"
Not even three seconds after the message was sent, someone immediately private messaged Zhou Can.
"Meet me in the emergency hall in half an hour."
"Okay, I’ll be there soon!"
The other party seemed very excited. It’s indeed something many desire, to collaborate with Zhou Can on a call.
Zhou Can found someone and quickly withdrew the message from the group.
Otherwise, private messages would probably flood in soon.
If they have time, most of the Cardiothoracic Surgery doctors would likely want to go on a call with Zhou Can.
"No rush, go have your meal first; health is most important."
Zhou Can replied to the other party.
"Thank you for your concern, Dr. Zhou. I’m touched!"
This doctor was named Zhong Ming, very young, only thirty-eight, currently an associate chief physician. He was on the list of people tempted to jump ship to the Third Hospital last time.
With the combined efforts of Zhou Can and many others, these people returned to Tuya Hospital.
So they are very grateful to Zhou Can.
Whenever there’s a need, in Cardiothoracic, Zhou Can can basically call on everyone. Even when Hu Kan was around, his influence might not have been this strong.
The reason is, during the toughest times in Cardiothoracic Surgery, Zhou Can repeatedly turned the tide, always striving to save the department.
He is also very friendly to the doctors and nurses in the department.
Many have benefited from his guidance and kindness.
People have warm hearts, and they genuinely respect and appreciate him.
Moreover, Zhou Can’s medical expertise is well recognized, making him the pride of Cardiothoracic Surgery. Many even consider him part of Cardiothoracic, selectively ignoring his identity as an Emergency Department doctor.
