Top-Tier Superpower Student

A doctor in a white coat emerged from the corridor, scolding Lin Tian. Seeing the identification badge on his chest, Lin Tian knew he was a chief surgeon.

"Director Wang, this is a family member of the patient, he just wants to go in and see the patient," Chen Lihui stepped out at this point and explained to the director.

"See the patient, hmph, easy for you to say. If something happens, won't our hospital be responsible?" Director Wang's face didn't look any better upon hearing this, scoffing coldly as he said. "Chen, I'm not criticizing you, but even though you're a high-ranking doctor who returned from overseas, you've got to use your brain, right? You're well aware of the patient's condition."

"Yes yes... Director Wang is right," Chen Lihui said with an awkward smile on his face, nodding in agreement to the director's reprimand.

"No, I must go in; I'll take responsibility for any consequences." Lin Tian didn't care about the director's status. His visit to He Qianqian was not only to understand her health situation but also to administer the healing potion to see if it could restore her basic bodily functions.

After all, her ongoing condition was far from reassuring.

"Hmph... you take responsibility? Nice words, but would you still think so if something really happened? I think you're just trying to blackmail the hospital for money," Director Wang sneered coldly upon hearing Lin Tian's words.

"Don't judge everyone by your crooked standards – I wouldn't spare a glance at that amount of money," Lin Tian frowned and replied; he couldn't believe how stubborn the doctor was, dead set against letting him see He Qianqian.

"Who are you calling crooked? I think you're just here to swindle money. Get out of here now, or I'll call security," Wang Jianhui's face turned furious when he heard Lin Tian insult him, pointing aggressively as if ready for a confrontation.

"Mr. Lin Tian, maybe we should let it go for now. Miss He Qianqian's condition is indeed not good. Perhaps we should wait until she is better," seeing the signs of a fight breaking out, Chen Lihui quickly intervened, trying to defuse the situation.

"No, I must go in. I have a way to restore her bodily functions and get her out of this instability," Lin Tian remained stubborn, insisting to Chen Lihui.

"Heh... restore her functions?" Upon hearing this, Wang Jianhui burst into derisive laughter. "Kid, bragging like that, aren't you afraid of biting your tongue? All the medical equipment in People's Hospital is the best in the country, as are the doctors. Even we would not dare to say such a thing. Ignorance truly is bliss."

"Mr. Lin Tian, you can't be serious, can you?" Chen Lihui was also stunned by the claim. It couldn't be helped that it sounded preposterous. As He Qianqian's primary physician, Chen Lihui was well acquainted with her condition, which was beyond the help of any medicine, even internationally—it relied solely on her own recovery.

"Do you think I'd joke about something like this?" Lin Tian looked at Chen Lihui and said.

"This..." Chen Lihui opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words because Lin Tian truly wouldn't do such a thing, as evidenced by how he had waited outside the emergency room for over ten hours with injuries.

But what could possibly make Lin Tian claim he could restore He Qianqian's functions? Was it just to see her one last time? That seemed unlikely; Lin Tian certainly understood the severity of entering the intensive care unit, as even the slightest mishap could affect a patient's life.

"Could it be...?" Suddenly, Chen Lihui thought of how Lin Tian had recovered from severe injuries in less than a week. His eyes lit up as he turned to Lin Tian and asked, "Mr. Lin Tian, do you genuinely have a way to restore Miss He Qianqian's functions?"

"Of course, I can't guarantee it a hundred percent, but I am sure there won't be any danger," Lin Tian nodded and said.

Seeing Lin Tian's certainty, Chen Lihui felt a surge of excitement. If Lin Tian truly had a way to restore He Qianqian's bodily functions, it would undoubtedly be a miracle in medical history.

He glanced at Wang Jianhui, feeling conflicted about whether to take the risk. It was a big gamble that could cost him his job.

"Forget it, I'll take the bet." Gritting his teeth internally, Chen Lihui made his decision and went up to Wang Jianhui saying, "Why don't we give it a try, Director? It might actually work."

"Chen, do you realize what you're saying?" Wang Jianhui's eyes widened. "Will you take responsibility if the patient suffers? Do you understand the risks of your words? Even if he doesn't hold us accountable, an incident would still tarnish our hospital's reputation."

"Yes, I will guarantee it. If anything goes wrong, I will take responsibility," Chen Lihui said with a determined look on his face.

"Heh... since you've said so, I'd come off as ungracious if I kept interfering," Wang Jianhui said with a trace of amusement. "If you're confident, let him go."

Wang Jianhui was just waiting for Chen Lihui to say those words. Although they worked in the same hospital, there was no love lost between them. Initially, Wang Jianhui had planned for his nephew to take the position Chen Lihui now held, but Chen Lihui's overseas credentials and reputation meant the nephew was passed over.

Hence, Wang Jianhui had always had a bone to pick with Chen Lihui, seizing any opportunity to make his life difficult. Now that such an opportunity presented itself, how could he not push Chen into the water to get even?

"..." Seeing the smile on Wang Jianhui's face, Chen Lihui inwardly cursed the old fox, fully aware of the old man's intentions. His heart felt unsettled, but having spoken out, he could not take his words back now.

Looking at Lin Tian, he silently prayed, 'Brother Lin Tian, don't let me down. I've staked everything on you.'

Ignoring Wang Jianhui, Chen Lihui approached Lin Tian and said, "Brother Lin Tian, you can go in now. But you know Miss He Qianqian's condition; please be careful."

"Mm, thank you, Dr. Chen." Lin Tian nodded and then entered the intensive care unit. Seeing He Qianqian lying on the bed, his heart ached unbearably. If not for him, how could He Qianqian have ended up like this?

"Qianqian..." Lin Tian walked over to He Qianqian's bedside, eyes moist, and took her hand. "You won't have any problems. I will definitely cure you. Trust me."

After saying this, he bowed his head and kissed her forehead, then removed her oxygen mask and took out a healing potion from the Taotie System.

"Hmph, hmph... Kid, daring to remove the oxygen mask, just wait for an accident to happen," Wang Jianhui, seeing Lin Tian take off He Qianqian's oxygen mask, smirked to himself, pleased at the thought of an impending mishap.
