The next day, Monday morning, Yan Feifan walked out of his bedroom to find his sister pointing her phone at him, recording.
"Dearest brother, it’s a new day! Hurry up and say hi to all our friends, new and old!"
Yan Feifan gave a haphazard wave. "Good morning, everyone," he said, before dashing into the bathroom.
After relieving himself, washing up, and drinking a glass of warm milk, Yan Feifan headed up to the attic, all under the watchful lens of his sister’s phone.
The attic bathroom renovation was finished. It just needed another day or two for the materials to cure and the space to air out before it could be used.
However, Yan Feifan had been informed the previous night that, given his current physical and mental state, he needed to focus on rest and recovery for the time being.
The plan to move in together was on hold.
While Yan Feifan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he also felt a pang of disappointment.
After a twenty-minute workout with Yu Suye on the terrace and a short break, they all went back to the dining room for breakfast.
Yan Ziruo filmed the breakfast Du Qiu had prepared from every angle before finally putting her phone down.
Yu Suye couldn’t help but comment, "Ziruo, I noticed that Feifan has over a million followers on the video site, but the view counts and comments seem a little low."
Yan Ziruo explained with a professional air, "Those are just fair-weather followers from the initial hype. They followed on a whim; they aren’t real fans."
"Once we have more videos up and start attracting fans who are genuinely interested in the content, the engagement will naturally pick up."
She added, "From now on, I’ll be in charge of filming Feifan’s personal and professional life."
"Qu Ying’s team will handle the science-pop videos and articles, producing soft promotional content for the hospital, and all the video editing."
Yan Feifan reminded her, "Sis, be careful about privacy."
"It’s one thing to expose a bit of my own life, but if you accidentally reveal a patient’s private information, it could lead to serious trouble."
Yan Ziruo nodded. "Feifan, Qu Ying has warned me about that over and over."
"I’ll be careful when I’m filming. If I have to or just can’t avoid it, I’ll ask for their consent first."
"And Qu Ying’s team will be careful during the editing process, too. They’ll blur faces and alter voices whenever possible."
After breakfast, Yan Feifan and Yu Suye biked to the hospital.
In order to get some following shots, Yan Ziruo unlocked a shared bike and tailed them...
When they arrived at the hospital’s emergency department, they came across an interesting patient who had just been rushed in.
Seeing an opportunity for content, Yan Ziruo pulled her brother into the situation.
A passing car suddenly had a blowout, and a pedestrian nearby collapsed to the ground.
The driver of the car with the burst tire was terrified.
He didn’t even worry about damaging his car further; he just drove the unconscious man to the nearby Affiliated Hospital on the flat tire.
A preliminary examination showed that the man, who was in his thirties, had no external or internal trauma.
Yan Feifan theorized that the man had likely fainted from the sheer volume of the tire bursting.
There were many possible underlying medical causes.
Fainting simply from fright.
An acoustic neuroma.
Cardiac, cardiovascular, or aortic diseases.
A brain tumor or cerebrovascular diseases, and so on.
After the emergency department ruled out critical conditions like a cerebral hemorrhage or a ruptured aortic aneurysm, the next step was to wake the patient, obtain his consent, and then perform a battery of tests...
Around eight in the morning, with the arrival of Mrs. Qin, Yan Feifan’s day of learning and work officially began.
After getting Mrs. Qin’s permission, Yan Ziruo filmed a few clips of Yan Feifan studying and practicing before leaving the office. She then excitedly went to track the progress of the patient who had fainted from the shock...
At noon, while they were having lunch together, Yan Ziruo reported on the test results for the patient who had fainted.
"The cerebral angiography found signs of atrophy in a small arterial branch in his brain."
"When he was startled, his blood pressure spiked, causing a severe lack of blood flow to that part of the brain, which made him lose consciousness."
"The patient has already been transferred to the neurology department for treatment..."
Yan Feifan had just let out a small "Oh" when, before he could say more, Yu Suye cut in excitedly, "Ziruo, Feifan’s work and study schedule has been changed!"
"Mr. Wang held a conference call last night."
"Starting this week, Feifan only needs to work at the hospital from Monday to Friday."
Yan Ziruo gasped in pleasant surprise, then crowed, "Mr. Wang is so efficient!"
"Excellent, excellent! He deserves a medal!"
Just then, she noticed her brother didn’t look happy at all. "Hey, Feifan," she couldn’t help but ask, "you don’t seem very pleased, do you?"
Yan Feifan said glumly, "I don’t want to be treated like a porcelain doll. I feel perfectly fine."
"A packed schedule gives me a sense of purpose and satisfaction. Having two days off a week will just leave me feeling a bit lost."
"Workaholic!" Yu Suye retorted.
