The next morning, Chen Cang woke up to find a slew of missed call notifications on his phone.
First, he called his parents to reassure them of his safety, promising that from now on, he would no longer overestimate his capabilities.
Yang Jiahui had not slept well the entire night, and Chen Dahai dared not boast about his escapades anymore—in case the kid got addicted to playing the hero, what then?
Chen Cang, feeling refreshed, arrived at the hospital early for breakfast, with no difference from any other day.
The nurses had an early shift change and were already preparing their stations.
Lele was instructing a new intern nurse, "The patient in bed 17 has been hospitalized for a long ti and requires frequent infusions. It's difficult to find veins in his limbs, so we have to use the external jugular vein. Go get the supplies ready."
The student was thrilled upon hearing this; it was her first ti to witness an external jugular vein infusion. To be honest, she was quite excited and expectant.
Excitedly, she took a tourniquet from the drawer and was about to head over.
Lele was taken aback and got a fright, "Wait a minute, what are you doing with that tourniquet?"
The student confidently replied, "Didn't you say we're going to infuse into the external jugular vein, teacher? Don't we have to tie around his neck?"
Hmm! Makes sense, doesn't it? If you need to tighten the arm when inserting a needle into the wrist, then surely the neck when you're doing it there?
Upon further consideration, it seed quite logical.
Chen Cang, who had just walked in, was utterly baffled when he heard this conversation!
He hurriedly said, "Young lady, please be gentle, can you really tie around soone's neck?"
The people at the nurse station burst into laughter upon hearing this.
Lele, trying to hold back laughter until she trembled, said, "You're too creative!"
"It's a bit of a waste for you to be a nurse!"
Seeing Chen Cang co in, Lele turned to the student and said, "Alright, don't you go trying by yourself, or you might end up strangling the patient instead of giving an infusion!"
Then, looking at Chen Cang, "Director Chen is back!"
Xiao Lin said with a beaming smile, "It's Hero Chen!"
The other nurses also cheerfully said, "Good morning, Director Chen!"
Chen Cang replied with an awkward smile, "I still can't get used to you calling director out of the blue; just call Dr. Chen, alright?"
Lele chuckled, "That won't do; the head nurse said that from now on, we must change the way we address you to Director Chen. It's not just a mark of respect for you, but also a ssage to the patients! There'll be deductions from the salary for disobedience."
After saying that, Lele suddenly looked at Chen Cang full of expectation, "Director Chen, if I were attacked by a bad guy, could you co out to rescue us too?"
Chen Cang was taken aback, and the head nurse, overhearing the conversation, hurried over saying, "Tut-tut-tut! What nonsense are you talking about? Touch wood! Touch wood!"
Tian Xianglan looked at Chen Cang, "Chen... no, Director Chen, on behalf of all the nurses, I salute you!"
The other nurses quickly nodded in agreent.
Chen Cang, looking at everyone, couldn't help but smile.
In fact, the relationship between doctors and nurses within the hospital had always been sowhat tense, but Chen Cang's selfless act of saving Huihui the day before had won over many nurses, drawing countless new admirers!
And earning him much appreciation and gratitude from nurous nurses!
Chen Cang smiled and said, "It's what I should have done."
In the morning, the Second Provincial Hospital was bustling with activity.
Reporters from the provincial TV station ca to interview Chen Cang. The Health Commission paid great attention to the developnt of the Second Provincial Hospital, and the provincial governnt would allocate specific funds for the growth and developnt of the hospital.
Qin Xiaoyuan greeted the visitors with a smile, filled with a multitude of emotions.
After struggling for most of his life to reach this position, he faced increasing difficulty in ascending further.
Chen Cang had helped him through his toughest challenge yet!
The gap between a divisional-level and a deputy departntal level was as wide as a chasm; a re step apart, yet blocking the paths of many careers.
And to Qin Xiaoyuan's surprise, the best decision he had made in his life was to vigorously promote Chen Cang.
This kid really did well!
He scored full marks and beca the champion in no ti.
And he's now a hero within the Health Commission system.
Although there was so hindsight fear, Qin Xiaoyuan had been terrified at the ti, after all, compared to Chen Cang's health and safety, her own matters were nothing.
After the lively crowd of reporters dispersed, Qin Xiaoyuan called Chen Cang into her office.
"Chen, in the future... don't be too impulsive, too reckless, you're still young, you know what I an?"
Chen Cang nodded, feeling a warmth in his heart, "Mmm, Director Qin, I understand."
Qin Xiaoyuan sighed, "Go and comfort Yueyue, she cried all night, sigh... you two sort out your own matters, go on."
Chen Cang looked at the ssage Qin Yue sent him, his heart aching.
All morning, Qin Yue ignored Chen Cang.
At noon, Chen Cang quickly caught hold of Qin Yue with a flattering smile, "Still angry? I was wrong, okay? I apologize."
Qin Yue glared at Chen Cang, "Who needs your apology? I'm telling you, Chen Cang, if we get married and I get pregnant, and you get into trouble, I will definitely remarry!"
Before she could finish speaking, Qin Yue burst into tears, choking up, "Then I'll be soone else's wife, and the kids will be calling soone else 'daddy,' do you get that?"
Seeing this, Chen Cang quickly embraced Qin Yue, listening to her sobs.
"You scared to death, do you know that?"
"You went off playing the hero, and I was scared to death at ho, your mother called last night... can't you just not play the hero?"
Qin Yue cried and sobbed for a long ti, and it took Chen Cang a great deal of effort to finally calm her down, "Alright, I was wrong, from now on, I'll only be your hero, protecting you and our child."
After being soothed for a while, the two sat in the duty room.
Qin Yue dried her tears, saying with a pout, "Actually... I was just bluffing, I will never marry anyone else in my lifeti, and if you get into trouble, I will raise the child on my own, and I will tell him that his dad was a true hero."
Chen Cang's eyes also blurred as he took a deep breath, "Thank you!"
Qin Yue pouted, "I want to eat hotpot, I want milk tea!"
Chen Cang laughed, pulling Qin Yue towards the door, "Okay, you got it, eat as much as you want!"
Qin Yue sniffled and wiped away tears, "I haven't forgiven you, not the hotpot nor the milk tea!"
Chen Cang nodded, "Mhm, I know!"

Qin Yue humd, "I'm really angry, and it's... the kind that can't be coaxed easily!"
Plus... if you make angry again, I will take my child and fly far away, never letting you see!"
Chen Cang smiled and continued to lead her outside.
Qin Yue tried to shake off Chen Cang's hand, whispering, "Everyone's here, there are so many people outside!"
Chen Cang didn't care, holding Qin Yue's hand as they walked towards the exit.
The passing nurses instantly widened their eyes, "Wow... what's going on here?"
Lele also ca over, "Damn... Qin Yue, you're stealing my man!"
Surrounded by the teasing of the other nurses, they started cheering, "Oh oh oh... ti to treat us!"
Qin Yue's face turned red all of a sudden, and after coming out of the office, she scolded, "It's all because of you!"
Chen Cang smiled, "What's there to be afraid of? I'm Director Chen now."
Upon hearing that, Qin Yue grinned, "Then I'm Mrs. Chen!"
"Chen Cang the second greatest in the world!"
"Mrs. Chen the greatest in the world!"
When Chen Cang heard that, he imdiately laughed, "Darling, you've changed, last night I was still number one!"
