Chapter 1017: Are You My Subordinate?

As Ling Ran was performing the surgery, he saw the mission. He could not help but stop for a while, and he started thinking about it.

‘Make my subordinates prove that they are more skillful than their peers?’

The keyword was: prove.

After all, the few doctors under him already possessed skills that far surpassed most of their peers. It was obviously impossible for them to surpass all their colleagues from the same batch. For example, Ling Ran entered the hospital after Lu Wenbin, and his skills were superior to his peers. If there was a genius doctor among each batch, who could guarantee that no genius doctor who was super talented academically among the colleagues from the same batch as Lu Wenbin or Ma Yanlin existed?

Furthermore, it was also hard to tell whether there was another doctor who also had a cheat item known as a system.

As he thought about this, Ling Ran raised his head and looked at his subordinates, who were currently learning under him.

Lu Wenbin was the one who set his mind at ease the most. He had learned from Ling Ran for a very long time. He had already performed plenty of surgeries, regardless of the number of times where he served as the assistant or chief surgeon. His skills in finger replantation and M-tang technique had surpassed his colleagues and classmates from the same batch.

Ma Yanlin should also be above average. Although his skills were slightly inferior compared to Lu Wenbin, it was mainly due to his age and his basic skills, and Zhang Anmin’s case was similar to him. Naturally, among doctors from the same batch, Zhang Anmin was better than most of them, but if he were to be judged based on the standard of an associate chief physician, he might not be any better.

At this time and age, doctors who could become associate chief physicians were all pretty skilled.

Aside from these three skill-based subordinates, it was a little hard for Yu Yuan and Zuo Cidian to beat their peers based on their skills.

Forget about Zuo Cidian. His colleagues from the same batch who did well might already be on their way to become academicians in the Chinese Academy of Engineering. At the very least, it was not uncommon for them to become a Changjiang Scholar at their age.

Yu Yuan was also not young now. After her Master’s, she had her progress delayed for a few years before she was finally able to be promoted to a chief resident. However, it was considered normal for a doctor at her age to become a chief physician or associate chief physician.

Ling Ran subconsciously frowned a little. In this case, he only had three people who would easily fulfill the five person target for the mission?

Perhaps the other two were the ones where the difficulty lay?

For Ling Ran, this was most challenging.

Zuo Cidian and Yu Yuan were not people who could improve their skills after putting in effort…

“Doctor Ling? Is something wrong?” Lu Wenbin rarely saw Ling Ran stopping in the middle of a surgery, so he could not help but ask.

Ye Sigong served as the second assistant, and he was currently doing retraction. He changed his posture uneasily.

The actions of the person next to him immediately snapped Ling Ran to attention.

Ling Ran subconsciously inspected Ye Sigong.

He was in his thirties, had normal qualifications, normal experiences, normal eye-hand coordination, normal patience for surgeries, and had a willingness to learn skills… He was also considered normal among doctors… Overall, he was just a normal doctor in a normal hospital.

However, if he looked at this from the perspective of probability, doctors who could get seventy to eighty marks in all aspects were actually really rare.

Take Yu Yuan, who was in the same group. Her qualifications were quite good, and her patience for surgery and the hospital she had been trained in were great, but… her surgical maneuvering ability obviously could only allow her to afford to perform surgeries of medium difficulty or below. In other words, her final potential in mastering surgical techniques was not even comparable to Ye Sigong.

“Doctor Ling?” Ye Sigong became anxious as Ling Ran kept staring at him.

“Hmm… Doctor Ye, are you considered my subordinate?” Ling Ran was not very sure, so he decided to just go ahead and ask.

Ye Sigong was shocked, and his hands might have slipped if it were not for the fact that his hands had been trained to become stable after years of being a doctor.

‘What did he mean?

‘Is Doctor Ling not satisfied with me?

‘No!

‘With Doctor Ling’s personality, if he’s not happy with me, he’d just need to let me go and forget about me. A few days later, I’ll be a corpse by the road.

‘Maybe Doctor Zuo will even bring me to a corner, and I’ll end up as a pitiful and miserable corpse.

‘Then, did Doctor Ling just creatively tease and insult me in front of everyone?’

Ye Sigong secretly shook his head thirty-six times.

‘There’s no need for that at all.’

First, Doctor Ling was not a doctor who liked to scold his subordinates. Second… Ye Sigong asked himself, ‘What did I do to deserve having Doctor Ling spend his precious mental power to creatively tease and insult me?

‘… Hey, with the way I phrased it, that’s a compliment, not an insult, right?

‘So…’

Once he overturned all other possibilities, even if the last remaining possibility sounded completely impossible, it would still end up as the answer.

During that short instant, Ye Sigong finished thinking and obtained a conclusion that he himself found difficult to believe, but was one he was willing to believe in.

‘Does Doctor Ling intend to take me in as his disciple or direct disciple?’

Ye Sigong’s legs subconsciously trembled a little. If he did not hold a retractor on his hand, which was the instrument that had served as an obstruction to him for the entire surgery, Ye Sigong believed that he could do something very extreme on the spot.

Ye Sigong shook his head thirty-six times again.

Then, Ye Sigong raised his head and showed a sincere smile to Ling Ran, “Of course. Since the first day I entered Yun Hua Hospital, I’ve become your subordinate, Doctor Ling.”

Ling Ran slowly nodded. “Alright. I’ll let you suture the skin.”

Ye Sigong said happily, “Thank you, Doctor Ling!”

Although the reward of suturing the skin was more suitable for interns, at the moment, Ye Sigong felt that he could lower himself to the level of an intern.

Why should he not be willing to work as an intern under Ling Ran?

By the side, Ren Qi was so envious that his eyes almost bugged out of his eye sockets.

He joined much earlier than Ye Sigong, after all.

In fact, he joined way earlier.

However, Ling Ran had never asked for confirmation about whether he was his subordinate.

Ren Qi stared at Ling Ran wide-eyed.

At the same time, Ling Ran also turned around and looked at Ren Qi.

Including Ye Sigong, he now had only four subordinates who were suited for the mission.

And Ren Qi had been hanging around in front of Ling Ran for a really long time.

Ling Ran then asked, “Doctor Ren…”

“I do!” Ren Qi shouted immediately.

He looked forward to Ling Ran’s question way too eagerly.

Unlike Ye Sigong, he was still currently authorized in the county hospital, which meant he still had a path to survive if he could not stay here.

However, Ren Qi’s training period had ended, and he insisted on staying here, which meant that he had basically lost his authorization in the country hospital.

At this moment, it was only natural that Ren Qi would be more desperate for Ling Ran’s recognition.

However, his hasty response made the operating theater remain silent for a few seconds.

Only Ling Ran remained calm and sober.

He had experienced this kind of conversation for a long time over the course of his life.

He could just say something random, and someone would appear and shout “I do”. Ling Ran was not quite sure why many people liked to do this, but anyways, he did not quite understand jokes, and he also did not study it.

“Doctor Ling, you can call me Ren Qi or Young Ren.” Ren Qi masked his embarrassment by saying this.

Ling Ran slowly nodded. “The form of address is not important. What kind of surgery do you prefer to perform?”

Ren Qi glanced at Ye Sigong, who was closing the incision, and he started to think.

For him, this was an important moment.

A doctor as busy as Ling Ran would not easily ask for his preference again.

In other words, his choice now could possibly decide his future development.

This was just like how a master in a martial arts sect would ask his disciple. “Boy, what sort of martial arts do you want to learn?”

And everything would be decided for the disciple at that point.

It was easy to answer, but a simple answer might affect his whole life…

Ren Qi quickly came up with various thoughts in his mind, and finally, all his thoughts gathered into a sentence, “I will do the one Doctor Ling thinks I’m good at…”

Perhaps the truth in his sentence was even greater than all of his previous flattery.

Ren Qi was not a newbie who had just started to study medicine. He knew orthopedists and cardiologists earned a lot, and he also knew Ling Ran had some contribution in both fields.

He also knew about Ling Ran’s reputation in hepatectomy and his possible future if he managed to master this technique.

However, after working as a doctor for such a long time, Ren Qi also knew that doctors needed to consider talent and adaptability as well when they wanted to choose their path.

If he learned under Ling Ran and his aim was just to master a skill at Novice Level, why should he stay in Yun Hua Hospital illegally?

Perhaps asking Doctor Ling to choose a suitable learning direction for him was the most beneficial plan.

Ren Qi looked at Ling Ran expectantly.

“In this case…” Ling Ran muttered to himself for a few seconds before he said, “Later, when we get back to Yun Hua Hospital, you will help in the Emergency Department.”

Ren Qi’s smile slowly turned into a puzzled look.
