The Enhanced Doctor

Chapter 1035: Chapter 1035: So Many High-Risk Groups

(Thanks to Crazy Chieftain for the monthly ticket encouragement)

With a cheerful mood, Liu Banxia hummed a tune and returned home.

"Dad, when did you arrive?" Liu Banxia asked after attending to the playful antics of the Tang Dou family at his side.

"Arrived in the afternoon; work has been tough lately, hasn’t it? Take a break." Qiao Xuezhi said with a smile.

"I’m used to it now. Last night during my shift, there was a surgery, but nothing much happened during the day. Tonight, I should have a drink, anyway nothing much is going on at the hospital." Liu Banxia said with a grin.

"At your leisure, Old Qiu and Chairman Bao said we should have a get-together with the three families tomorrow." Qiao Xuezhi replied.

"It’s really hard work for the mother-in-law, Auntie Tong still has to look after Xiaoyu. Originally wanted Xiaoyu to stay home alone, but feared he wouldn’t manage well himself."

"In-laws, you really can’t leave a child home alone." Peng Xiuqin said.

"This is why Qiaoqiao wouldn’t let me come; otherwise, I would’ve been here earlier. She can’t take care of herself at all, thanks to Yanzi’s help, otherwise, she wouldn’t have a good meal every day."

"Mom, actually I’m quite good at scoring meals. Whether it’s at the teacher’s house or Sister Xian’s, I can always manage to get a meal." Qiaoqiao said earnestly. ƒreewebɳovel.com

"Yanzi, Uncle must thank you too. You’ve taken care of Qiaoqiao a lot over the years; she’s naturally carefree." Qiao Xuezhi said.

"Uncle Qiao, Qiaoqiao and I are quite close. After all, I’m freeloading here for food and accommodation; I’m not shy at all." Wang Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"That’s right, no one sees you as an outsider anyway. When you have time, let our Old Liu introduce you to someone. Whether it’s a doctor, a police officer, you can choose freely." Qiaoqiao stated proudly.

"Please calm down; police officers and doctors are no different, both leave early and return late. Actually, doctors might be better; at least there’s less worry." Wang Xiaoyan replied.

"You know, if you really are interested, I could help find someone." Liu Banxia said.

"Doctors aren’t all like me, clinical doctors; some are in labs or other positions. Same with police officers, not all are detectives, needing to work on the front line." freewebnøvel.coɱ

"Think it over; I feel it’s doable. At the police station, we do have acquaintances, whether it’s Captain Shen or Officer Ma; they can help find someone."

Wang Xiaoyan was at a loss for words; she didn’t know how this couple got the idea of matchmaking for her.

"Alright, let’s wash our hands; it’s time for dinner." Peng Xiuqin called out.

Liu Banxia then pushed the Tang Dou family aside; if you’re not resolute, they’ll cling to you endlessly.

"Dad, are you staying until after the New Year before heading back?" Liu Banxia asked.

"I can’t; there’s more work at the company year-end. Auntie Tong and Xiaoyu might come earlier; I’ll have to return once." Qiao Xuezhi replied.

"Don’t push yourself too hard; age is catching up. Even if you fly back and forth, takeoff and landing aren’t comfortable." Liu Banxia said.

Qiao Xuezhi nodded, "Just a few more years of this, then I’ll choose a suitable manager to run things, only checking occasionally."

"I’m doing quite well now, whether it’s Langtaosha or Jinbao, both are managed excellently." Qiaoqiao said with a hint of pride.

"By the way, when will our hotel officially open?" Liu Banxia asked curiously.

"Oh, that’s still a ways off. The earliest would be New Year’s Day next year; we’ll aim to have everything ready by November." Qiao Xuezhi replied.

"Although the interior decoration can be handed over to contractors, recruitment and training take the most time."

"Old Qiu and I hadn’t considered enough initially; without a comprehensive management and operations team, hotel business isn’t easy."

"Every day there are disputes; managing them well is the hardest part. Now that we’ve hitched onto the internet, we must follow its rules."

"Previously, store service was straightforward. Now, there are too many issues. Not afraid of genuine problems, they can be fixed, just wary of troublemakers."

Liu Banxia nodded in understanding, "You’re right; there are all sorts of customers now. The service industry seems profitable, but it’s actually tough."

"It boils down to management. At Langtaosha and Jinbao, there are difficult customers daily. When faced with troublemakers, I certainly won’t spoil them." Qiaoqiao said.

"Initially, I thought about peacekeeping, but some take advantage of it. Using their phones to photograph everywhere, threatening to ’expose.’ Am I afraid? I call the police directly."

"Hahaha, it’s their bad luck to encounter you!" Liu Banxia laughed.

Others might be cautious, but Qiaoqiao would definitely act decisively.

That’s just her character, rarely muddling through but seeking clarity.

Although this might attract some malicious reviews, both Jinbao and Langtaosha provide excellent service. So, even now, the business at these two establishments is still quite good.

The catering and entertainment industry is full of tricks, but despite Jinbao’s high dish prices, the ingredients have always been solid. Frozen items are never sold as fresh, which is Qiaoqiao’s principle for doing business.

"Banxia, how is your work going recently?" Qiao Xuezhi asked.

"It’s alright, similar to before. Lately, I’ve been organizing some emergency medical knowledge awareness campaigns on college campuses," Liu Banxia said.

"Nowadays, there are many patients who die suddenly, and a large proportion are from sudden cardiac arrest. If those around knew some first aid knowledge, lives might be saved."

"Yes, the news often reports cases of death due to overwork. You all need to be careful while working," Peng Xiuqin said.

"Mom, we’ll definitely be mindful," Liu Banxia replied with a smile.

"The most critical period following a cardiac arrest is the 4-6 minutes after the heart stops beating. Essentially, the most crucial is the first 4 minutes. If it exceeds this time, even if resuscitated, it usually results in brain death."

"And the chances of successful resuscitation aren’t very high. Today, we admitted a patient like this. They’re still lying in the ICU, and the parents don’t want their child to pass away."

"However, the brain suffered too long without oxygen, affecting the central nervous system. Now, survival is reliant on medication and machinery, but it’s only a matter of days."

"Sigh... As parents, no one wants to see their child in trouble. With even a glimmer of hope, they want to save the child," Qiao Xuezhi said.

"That’s exactly the point," Liu Banxia noted.

"But with just this case, tens of thousands are quickly spent. The longer you hold on, the more it costs. This situation can’t be helped, and whatever choice is made is understandable."

"If one of his classmates knew first aid and provided timely CPR, sending him for medical treatment, the chances of success would still be high."

"Just a few minutes results in two different outcomes. Precisely because of this, we had this idea. Life pressures are immense these days, and we must really stay vigilant in this aspect."

"Healthcare workers, police officers, software engineers, frontline operators, athletes, drivers, internet writers, the elderly, and so forth, these are all actually high-risk groups."

"Wow, so many? You need to be even more cautious then," Qiaoqiao advised.

"I’m okay, as long as surgeries don’t run back-to-back, we all have rest time. Snatching a moment to supplement with glucose and the like allows us to persist," Liu Banxia said.

"Did you notice how quickly I fall asleep at night? This skill was honed in the hospital. But since I’ve been frequently going home lately, this ability has somewhat regressed."

Qiaoqiao glanced at him, "But you still need to rest well. You should be lazy when you can."

"Absolutely, in this aspect, they can’t beat me," Liu Banxia casually replied.

Qiaoqiao felt relieved, thinking Liu Banxia was performing well, and even served him a piece of ribs.

In reality? There isn’t much time to be lazy.

If truly busy, it’s nonstop. When not busy, one can slightly relax, then handle some paperwork.

Back then, it was pretty good, without too many things to manage. When exhausted, finding a spot to nap was possible.

"Haha, Comrade Old Qiao coming over is excellent, as someone is there to take Tang Dou’s family for walks," Qiaoqiao continued.

"Haha, indeed, it’ll be hard on Dad. Now that Beifeng, Dongfeng, Xifeng, and Nanfeng are quite grown, they’re strong and not easy to manage," Liu Banxia said.

"That’s right, when I left, they were just little, but now, well aren’t they something," Qiao Xuezhi added.

"But it’s not much, they’re still very obedient. I have nothing to do in the morning, perfectly suited to take them out for a stroll. With age, it’s truly time to increase some movement."

Chatting and talking, the meal was indeed enjoyed to the fullest.

Sometimes, meals are all about the atmosphere. When the mood is right, even if the dishes are slightly lacking, it’s still alright.

Their dishes weren’t lacking to begin with, and now the rift between Qiaoqiao and Comrade Old Qiao was gone, making this meal all the more splendid.

Usually, after having some fruit and resting a bit, Liu Banxia would go to sleep.

Not today; he must accompany his father-in-law for a chat.

Although his father-in-law put a lot of pressure on him when they first met, there’s not much to say these days.

In the hospital, he might be Director Liu, but at home, he’s still Liu Banxia. He must comply with Qiaoqiao’s leadership and properly entertain his father-in-law.

This is home, where everyone has their place, and meddling in roles isn’t acceptable.
