When the lights in the operating room finally went out, Li Qian and the squad leader, who had been waiting at the door for several hours, quickly stood up. Seeing Chen Yu emerge from the operating room, they hurriedly approached him and asked, "Chen Yu, how is Wang Jiancheng? Is he alright now?"

"He's fine now, but what about you two, have you been waiting here all night?" Chen Yu removed his mask and looked at the fatigue hardly hidden on their faces as he asked them.

On hearing Chen Yu ask this, Li Qian quickly explained, "The class reunion was organized by the squad leader and me. If something happened to someone, shouldn't we come and see what's going on? By the way, what happened to Brother Jianchen exactly? He was vomiting blood so severely; it couldn't be that he drank too much on a regular basis and caused some problem, could it?"

"I can't tell you that as a doctor, I have to keep the patient's condition confidential, but you can ask the family," Chen Yu smiled at Li Qian, without revealing Wang Jiancheng's condition. "He'll be out soon, do you want to go see him?"

"It's just as well to take a look. After staying up the whole night, we can't leave without knowing what's happened to him, right?" Li Qian joked before asking the squad leader beside him, "Sister, I'm here, and that's enough. You go back first, it's late."

"I'm here now, it's the same if I show support then leave," the squad leader shook her head, insisting on staying to see Wang Jiancheng's condition before leaving.

The squad leader was Li Qian's older cousin. Although she was called 'older sister', they were only half a month apart in age, which was why they ended up in the same class to begin with.

But as the 'older sister', the squad leader's grades were much better than Li Qian's, and she was also the teacher's favorite. So, from childhood to adulthood, she had always been the squad leader—the proverbial 'child of someone else's family'. The frequent comparisons made Li Qian rather in awe of his cousin.

When Wang Jiancheng opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was an unfamiliar ceiling and an IV drip hanging by his side, slowly trickling down.

Don't worry, I removed it cleanly, and the tumor hadn't spread. As long as you take care of yourself, it shouldn't impact your quality of life too much, although there's a possibility of recurrence, that's also quite minimal. Zhu Ting is a doctor herself and will take good care of you."

"Why didn't you consult me?!" Wang Jiancheng still couldn't accept what Chen Yu was saying.

Anyone told suddenly they have cancer and their stomach has been removed wouldn't be in high spirits, especially someone like Wang Jiancheng who was not a particularly open-minded person. He inevitably started complaining again.

"Why did you have to remove my stomach? Couldn't I have just gone through chemotherapy?" His expression turned very grim as the pain in his wound flared up once again due to his agitation, "And who knows if there really won't be any complications from a clean removal? It's just a small-time surgeon, acting as if he is some specialist professor!"

Wang Jiancheng's complaints instantly made everyone in the ward look equally distressed, and the smile on Chen Yu's face turned into a sneer.

Zhu Yiting, hearing Wang Jiancheng complain like that, quickly grew anxious. While urging him not to go on, she explained, "He is an Associate Professor of Medicine at The University of Tokyo! You would be begging him to perform the surgery on you! Stop talking nonsense!"

While scolding Wang Jiancheng, Zhu Yiting also hurried to apologize to Chen Yu, "I'm sorry, Chen Yu. Jiancheng isn't fully awake yet and is talking nonsense; please don't take it to heart."

"It doesn't matter, we are all doctors here, and this kind of thing is quite common in wards. Take good care of him, I'm leaving now." Chen Yu shook his head and without saying anything more, turned to leave the ward.

Li Qian and the squad leader, seeing this scenario, said a couple of courteous words about taking care of himself before also choosing to say goodbye and leave. As the three of them left the ward, the complaints of Wang Jiancheng could still be heard behind them: "It's not like he's a professor from Peking Union Medical College. What's the big deal! It's not that we can't afford to hire a specialist..."
