Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Work Assistant

Yu Zhiming watched Zhou Mo approach. She was bouncing and hopping like a joyful kitten, chirping, "It’s really okay now!" He felt a daze come over him, as if he were dreaming.

"Are the results really out?"

Zhou Mo’s face was flushed with excitement as she nodded vigorously.

"Dr. Yu, they’re really out! The new biopsy pathology report was just posted online in full."

"They detected cancerous cells. It’s confirmed to be breast cancer."

The moment Zhou Mo finished speaking, she felt her body go light. Yu Zhiming had swept her into his arms and was spinning her around.

Round and round and round...

Zhou Mo looked at Yu Zhiming’s handsome, bright-eyed face and could clearly feel that every pore was smiling, radiating relief and peace of mind.

’He must have been under so much pressure these past two days. He must have been so scared and lost!’

’That’s why he lost control and cried when he met his older sister.’

At this thought, Zhou Mo’s heart flooded with a deep ache and compassion for him...

A moment later, Zhou Mo was set back on the ground.

The world was spinning, and a dizzy Zhou Mo instinctively reached out to grab onto Yu Zhiming.

But she grasped at empty air.

Stumbling, Zhou Mo saw a familiar tall figure sprinting toward the central building.

’You idiot! You big oaf!’

Utterly speechless, Zhou Mo couldn’t be bothered to curse Yu Zhiming out. To keep from falling, she just plopped down on the ground to wait for the dizziness to pass...

After sprinting for over a hundred meters, Yu Zhiming had vented most of his excitement. By the time he stepped back into the central building, he had resumed a leisurely, composed gait.

’As a future great doctor, remaining unmoved by honor or disgrace is an essential quality.’

With this in mind, Yu Zhiming put on an air of composure. He calmly accepted the congratulations and applause from the hundred or so people still waiting in line for the examination room and resumed his physical check-ups...

Just as Qi Yue and Yu Zhiming had predicted...

When this completely different pathology report appeared online, public opinion regarding Yu Zhiming did a complete one-eighty.

"Ah, so he really was performing an examination. I misunderstood Dr. Yu. I want to offer my sincerest apologies to Dr. Yu."

"I knew it. If he were really trying to take advantage of a woman, why would he go through the trouble of wearing gloves?"

"Dr. Yu is amazing! To be able to detect breast cancer with just his hands—those are the hands of a god."

Other netizens specifically @’d certain people: "Eat shit, do a handstand while having diarrhea, break a boulder on your chest, swallow glass..."

"We all remember the vows you all swore. Go live-stream it! Don’t be cowards hiding in your shells."

There were also some jealous comments. "He gets to work and have fun at the same time. It almost makes me want to be a doctor too."

Of course, there were still voices of doubt.

Some said that Binhai Jiao Da Affiliated Hospital had been swayed by a PR campaign, that it was a case of doctors protecting their own, and that they had altered the pathology report’s results.

Others were convinced the entire incident was a scripted drama from the very beginning.

That all the twists and turns, the ups and downs, were ultimately designed to make Yu Zhiming famous...

Around 5:00 PM, another video went viral because of its connection to Yu Zhiming.

This video was filmed by several staff members at the Jingbin South Street Service Area.

In the video, they recounted how one night, nearly two months ago, a young man and woman had fearlessly exposed a couple of human traffickers at the service area, rescuing two children.

After the traffickers were arrested and the children were saved, the young man and woman quietly left.

Thanks to the buzz surrounding Dr. Yu Zhiming online, they recognized him as one of the two young people who had done a good deed and left without taking credit.

Because of this video, combined with Yu Zhiming’s astonishing medical skills, a new wave of praise surged across the internet.

"Master Healer," "Role Model of Our Time," "Benevolent Heart and Skill"—one beautiful descriptor after another was heaped upon Yu Zhiming.

Amidst all this praise, Gao Yun and Liu Xuan, the women at the center of the molestation incident, also released a short video.

In the video, the two of them put on a pitiful and helpless act as they apologized to Yu Zhiming.

They stated that, out of a young woman’s natural caution and wariness, they had misunderstood Dr. Yu’s good intentions and handled the situation poorly, leading to such a huge scandal.

Fortunately, the misunderstanding was now cleared up, and no substantial harm had come to Dr. Yu.

They felt utterly terrified, they said, and begged Dr. Yu to be magnanimous and forgive their reckless and improper actions...

Past 7:00 PM, having finished a full day of physical examinations, Yu Zhiming saw Gao Yun and Liu Xuan’s apology video and simply let out a cold snort.

Their scheme this time was quite perfect. It left Yu Zhiming with no leverage for a counterattack.

He had been forced to swallow a bitter pill in silence.

However, Yu Zhiming firmly committed the names Gao Yun and Liu Xuan to memory.

’Ruining someone’s future is like murdering their parents.’

How could Yu Zhiming let such a deep grudge go so easily?

’I’ll keep it in mind for now. I’ll slowly find a chance for revenge later, and while I’m at it, I’ll find the real person pulling the strings.’

In truth, Yu Zhiming’s hatred for Gao Yun was far greater than his hatred for the mysterious mastermind.

"Zhiming..."

Qi Yue said with a serious expression, "This time, you managed to escape their scheme, but ultimately, you were just lucky. There was a huge element of chance involved."

"You might not be so lucky next time!"

Yu Zhiming adopted the look of an obedient student. "Teacher, after such a harsh lesson, I won’t make the same mistake again."

"From now on, whenever I go out, whether for work or personal matters, I won’t be alone."

"My Fourth Sister will always be with me."

Qi Yue glanced at Yu Xiangwan, who was standing to the side, and pondered for a moment.

"Zhiming, how about having your Fourth Sister come to the hospital as a contract worker to be your professional assistant?"

"After this incident, no one will see you as an ordinary attending physician anymore. The hospital will most likely approve you having a professional assistant."

Yu Zhiming looked at his Fourth Sister.

Seeing that she was about to go from an informal personal assistant to an official professional one, Yu Xiangwan didn’t look very happy.

"Fifth Brother, I have no problem accompanying you to and from work, going out with you for social events, or fetching you tea and water."

"But I don’t know the first thing about medicine! I get scared and squeamish when I see bloody scenes."

"This professional assistant job doesn’t involve helping with treating patients, does it?"

Qi Yue replied softly, "There won’t be much work of that kind, but it will be unavoidable."

"Sometimes, when Zhiming sees patients, you, as his assistant, will definitely have to assist him in some small way."

Yu Xiangwan shook her head like a rattle drum.

"You should find him an assistant with a professional medical background instead. We can’t let me get in the way of him saving lives."

Qi Yue also felt it would be best to find an assistant for Yu Zhiming with a medical education.

Yu Xiangwan’s willingness to step aside was for the best.

"I’ll keep the matter of a professional assistant in mind. I’ll pick a suitable one for Zhiming as soon as possible."

After a pause, Qi Yue’s expression shifted to a smile. "As they say, a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit. Zhiming has grown from this experience."

"Besides, Zhiming has become famous overnight. His reputation in the country has definitely surpassed mine now."

"We should celebrate..."

For once, Yu Zhiming’s mind was quick on the uptake, and he smoothly picked up the conversation.

"This time, because of me, my teacher..."

Yu Zhiming looked at Zhou Mo and Gu Qingning. "...my friends, and my family all had to worry."

"I have to show my appreciation somehow."

He looked back at Qi Yue and said, "Teacher, do you have any good recommendations for a place to eat?"

Yu Zhiming quickly added, "Let’s be clear, this one is on me..."
