c90: Lost Little Girl

Yu Suye got the hint that the little girl, Tian Yu, was talking to her.

She immediately invited the shameless yet cute little girl, along with Yan Ziruo, who had come by to head home with Yan Feifan after his shift.

The Jinxiu Grand Hotel, an official partner of the Affiliated Hospital, was a five-star hotel only six or seven hundred meters away.

Yan Feifan, Yu Suye, and the others walked over.

Once they were out the hospital's main gate, Yu Suye said excitedly, "Feifan, I've chosen the patient for the surgery."

"An eleven-year-old girl named Jingjing."

Hearing the name Jingjing, Yan Feifan immediately recalled the girl's case.

She had a developmental deformity in her right hand. There was a cleft between her index and middle fingers, like a cow's hoof, that extended to the middle of her palm.

That wasn't the most severe part. The real challenge was that her right wrist joint was inverted.

Yan Feifan reminded her, "Dealing with an inverted wrist joint is quite difficult."

Yu Suye said confidently, "If it weren't for the extremely rare inverted wrist, I wouldn't have chosen her."

Tian Yu asked curiously, "Mr. Yan, an inverted wrist..."

Just then, Yan Ziruo tapped her on the head and said, "Xiaoyu, haven't you learned your lesson yet?"

"Don't ask Feifan medical questions during mealtime."

"It's rare for us to eat Western food, and I don't want to lose my appetite."

Tian Yu said hurriedly, "Ruoruo, my mistake."

She then turned to Yan Feifan and said, "Mr. Yan, you don't have to answer my question."

Yan Feifan chuckled and patted her on the head.

Just then, Yan Ziruo asked, "Feifan, are you familiar with Dr. Yv Yingfang from our hospital's gynecology department?"

Yan Feifan shook his head. "I know she's a famous gynecologist, but I'm not familiar with her. I've never spoken to her."

"Sis, is this for one of your friends...?"

Yan Ziruo said with some exasperation, "No, it's Deng Ye!"

Yan Feifan's brow furrowed slightly. "Hasn't his father already been discharged? Why is he asking about a gynecologist?"

Deng Ye's father had ultimately chosen to be treated with a stent.

This type of interventional procedure was less invasive, so his father was discharged only three days after the surgery.

"Deng Ye said his dad is still recuperating at his place and hasn't gone back to their hometown."

"Today, his dad was on the phone with someone from back home..."

Yan Ziruo explained, "The person from his hometown heard that Dr. Yv Yingfang at our hospital is quite famous and wanted to ask her for a consultation."

"His father agreed, just to save face."

"And then his father told Deng Ye to make sure it happened, so Deng Ye came to me for help..."

Yan Feifan interrupted, clearly displeased. "Sis, you used to be very decisive when dealing with these kinds of requests for favors."

"Why are you being so indecisive when it comes to Deng Ye?"

"You don't tell me you..."

"Of course not!"

After her immediate denial, Yan Ziruo explained, "You didn't let me finish. I'm telling you, I already turned that guy down."

"I even told him that if this happens once, it'll happen again and again, and that he should just refuse his father directly."

"I only asked you just now because I wanted to know if you were familiar with that Dr. Yv!"

Yan Feifan was only half-convinced by his sister's words.

He reminded her, "Sis, that guy is trying to dump his problem on you. He has bad intentions."

"It'd be best if you cut off all contact with people like him."

Yan Ziruo said impatiently, "I know, I know. You don't have to tell me."

"I'm much better at handling this kind of thing than you are..."

A little over ten minutes later, the group arrived at the Western restaurant on the third floor of the Jinxiu Grand Hotel.

The restaurant was rather well-known for its steak.

On Yu Suye's recommendation, the Yan siblings and Tian Yu ordered sirloin, T-bone, and filet mignon, respectively.

When it came time to order dessert, Tian Yu wanted to get ice cream.

But after a glare from Yan Feifan, the little girl obediently switched her order to a small caramel cake.

After ordering, Yu Suye handed the menus back to the waiter and started chatting with Yan Ziruo about working out.

"Ruoruo, the Blue Sky Fitness Club next to Shengjing Apartments is pretty good. It's well-equipped, and the trainers are professional and enthusiastic."

Yan Ziruo's eyes lit up as she asked, "Su Ye, are there a lot of handsome guys at that gym?"
