Chapter 828: Chapter 830 A Good Teacher

Xiao Yifei noticed that when he said he didn’t have to go to see Su Mang for a while, she smiled, and then immediately covered up her expression. It seemed that Tang Rong still cared about him, otherwise she wouldn’t be asking about that woman. Maybe Tang Rong was jealous, Xiao Yifei thought happily.

Tang Rong entered the bedroom and started to smile happily. Recently, she didn’t have to worry about Xiao Yifei being snatched away by someone else. She jumped onto her big bed, covering her face as she laughed.

Moreover, Xiao Yifei is too kind-hearted. The candied haws were definitely bought out of pity for the vendor. He didn’t even mention his good deed. This truly is Xiao Yifei’s style. Tang Rong liked Xiao Yifei more and more now.

Shi Miaomiao now knew that both Xiao Yifei and Tang Rong liked each other. They were always testing the waters, but hadn’t yet broken the thin paper window between them. Shi Miaomiao had thought about helping these two hesitant people break through this barrier.

But then she thought otherwise, leaving it for the two involved to handle slowly. Falling in love during this stage is the most beautiful, wanting but not getting, the relationship that is close yet distant is the most tormenting, but also full of endless fun.

Shi Miaomiao also found joy in watching their little drama. Moreover, there was another important reason. If the two of them ended up together, she’d openly become a glaring third wheel, getting shunned and feeling awkward everywhere. Then she might have to reluctantly move out of this warm little home, as she wouldn’t find another such wonderful place.

So let these two develop slowly.

Among the three, only Shi Miaomiao, the outsider, saw everything clearly, but she chose to say nothing.

With the winter holiday, several new interns joined the hospital. Xiao Yifei remembered that he used to be like them, interning at different hospitals every winter and summer break since sophomore year. It was called an internship, but in reality, interns were just free labor for the hospital.

If you met a good doctor leading you, you could indeed learn something, and you could learn more during actual practice. But if you met a careless doctor, you wouldn’t learn anything, just doing odd jobs. Getting a good doctor during your internship was very lucky indeed.

A lot of things you think you understand from books become much more complex in actual hospital settings. Some theoretical knowledge can’t be applied in practice, so the earlier you intern, the better.

Xiao Yifei was also assigned an intern, coincidentally a student from the same undergraduate school as him, so they quickly became familiar. Xiao Yifei was an excellent teacher, having risen from the most inconspicuous position of intern in the hospital to his current position, so he understood the importance of a good mentor doctor.

On Song Baiyang’s first day of the internship, he very clearly told him: "You are unlucky to be assigned to me, so you will have a very busy internship. I have only one requirement, and that is to record and memorize daily cases in detail. I will conduct random checks daily.

But you should also feel fortunate. Your internship goal is to learn and accumulate experience to become a real doctor, so my demands are not unreasonable." So whenever inspecting patients or checking on wards, he always had Song Baiyang by his side.

Being strict with Song Baiyang had another reason; they were from the same school, brothers in learning, and he hoped to contribute to his alma mater’s talent cultivation.

Compared to other students joining the hospital at the same time, Song Baiyang was the busiest. Other interns were busy with tasks like bringing water for their mentor doctors, the most tiring task being the daily ward round.

But for Song Baiyang, he hardly had any rest. In the morning he followed Xiao Yifei for ward rounds and occasionally got questioned about patient conditions. When Lin Mu rested at noon, Song Baiyang still couldn’t rest. He had to organize the morning’s cases, though the afternoon was slightly more relaxed as Xiao Yifei usually performed surgeries, and Song Baiyang reviewed his mentor’s previous case records.

From day one, he knew he was in for an exceptionally tough internship. He knew he had endless cases to review daily, but he was excited. Teachers back in school had already mentioned the hospital’s conditions, so encountering a great teacher like Xiao Yifei was truly lucky for him. Though tiring, it was worth it for his dream.

One day during a casual chat, they talked about their school, and then as if he suddenly remembered something, Song Baiyang said to Xiao Yifei: "Senior Xiao, among the students from our last few years, there have been stories circulating about an alumnus named Xiao Yifei. That couldn’t be you, could it?"

Xiao Yifei nodded and said: "Probably. To my knowledge, I’m the only Xiao Yifei from our school. Why, what do you guys say about me?" Xiao Yifei was a bit curious about what impression he made on the juniors.

"I don’t know the specifics. These are stories passed down by each year’s students. They say you were already amazing in school, having grown up in a family of medical practitioners, with your grandfather being a successor of Chinese Medicine. But what’s most told is that you once rejected a position at the best hospital in Z Province and chose to go abroad for deeper research instead."

"You don’t know how hard it is for us to get into that hospital now. It’s every medical student’s dream. Even the top talent in our department was turned away. It’s only because of this we know how remarkable your medical skill was back then." Song Baiyang looked at Xiao Yifei with admiration.

Song Baiyang always found the name Xiao Yifei familiar but never expected that the person in front of him was actually the same Xiao Yifei renowned among the students. He couldn’t believe his luck, so now he wanted to seize the opportunity to learn from this legendary figure.

Looking at the young Song Baiyang, Xiao Yifei encouraged him: "My level back then wasn’t much different than you guys now. It was mainly because there were more opportunities at that time, when medical talents were scarce. Unlike now, every year, there’s an abundance of graduates, but fewer job opportunities. With so many contenders, your employment situation surely isn’t optimistic."

Despite saying this, compared to Xiao Yifei back in the day, Song Baiyang’s medical level was still far behind. After all, Xiao Yifei’s family has practiced medicine for generations, and his long-term exposure since childhood made him especially adept at diagnosing illnesses.

"But don’t be discouraged. As long as you study hard, many opportunities are still waiting for you."

Song Baiyang didn’t quite understand why someone as skilled as Xiao Yifei ended up at this hospital. Not that this hospital was bad. It was one of the best in the city, but with Xiao Yifei’s capability, he shouldn’t be here.

So he voiced his doubts to Xiao Yifei. Xiao Yifei looked at him and asked: "Why did you choose to become a doctor?"
