Zheng Guotan noticed that Chen Cang seemed a little unhappy inside, yet he didn’t know the reason why.

Did I upset him?

Why does everyone seem displeased with me lately?

Besides being confused, Zheng Guotan became even more troubled inside.

Thinking about the recent slew of messy incidents, he felt that he should pay a visit to Buddha these days.

Ruffling feathers without cause is irrational. Zheng Guotan’s success didn’t come from being someone who wears his emotions on his sleeve.

So even though Chen Cang was a junior doctor, he still smiled and nodded, “Dr. Chen, hello. Thank you for your help today. Remember to give Dr. Chen a briefing when Xiao Hu sends him back later.”

Chen Cang looked at the question mark over Zheng Guotan’s head.

Ding! Due to the harem fire causing chaos for Zheng Guotan, he feels anxious. A little inquiry will trigger the second part of a serial quest.

Chen Cang also replied with a smile, “You’re too kind, Mr. Zheng. May I ask what brings you here today?”

Zheng Guotan shook his head, took a deep breath, and slowly said, “Dr. Chen, my girlfriend… this morning she accidentally sliced her leg, quite a long cut. Please see if you can fix it.”

As Chen Cang looked on thoughtfully, Zheng Guotan said directly, “It’s not that I don’t want to go to the hospital, but my girlfriend is quite special. You’ll understand when you see her. Come with me.”

During the conversation, he took Chen Cang into a bedroom.

A woman sat on the sofa in the bedroom, dressed in a white nightgown, with her leg resting on the coffee table, bandaged and pressurized with gauze in the middle of her calf.

But the woman had a stern, cold beauty, a dejected look on her face, unruly long hair, a clear slap mark on her face, eyes visibly cried out, red and swollen, and only one earring hanging from each ear; she looked utterly disheveled and forlorn.

Two medical staff were treating the wound on either side.

However, when Chen Cang took a closer look at the woman’s face, he couldn’t help but be startled.

He finally understood why they didn’t go to the hospital.

This was a celebrity!

The actress Xu Ruoyun, who had gradually become popular in recent years thanks to a few hit films!

Beautiful and well-figured, she’s even striving toward the top-tier this year.

How could she go to the hospital in this condition?

This disheveled appearance, the slap mark on the face, the messy hair.

If she went out, who knows what kind of big news it would turn into!

Is this domestic violence?

Or some private bedroom matter?

No!

Chen Cang, recalling the task prompt, realized what was going on.

A harem on fire!

A power struggle between the wife and the mistress, and it seemed the wife had emerged completely victorious.

Chen Cang heaved a sigh, the lives of the wealthy are indeed colorful and variegated.

But… he shouldn’t have come today!

He had stepped into a place of trouble.

He learned some secrets he shouldn’t have known.

Zheng Guotan still couldn’t help but ask softly with concern, “Does it hurt now?”

The woman nodded woodenly, tears dripping down her face.

Zheng Guotan sighed, feeling pity, and comforted her, “Baby, don’t cry, be good, okay? It’s all my fault. Rest assured, I’ll take care of today’s issue for you.”

Chen Cang was momentarily stunned—another handover? Was this boss Zheng from a family that produced tape?

The actress took a deep breath, gently dabbed the corner of her eye with a tissue, and spoke with a tone of finality, “Yeah, hurry up, please. I can’t stand this… I also have to go auditioning soon, everything is arranged with the director, and there are several advertisements I’ve taken on… Now this problem with my leg, sigh…”

Upon hearing that it was about this matter, Zheng Guotan thought, isn’t it just shooting a movie? Anything that can be solved with money isn’t a big deal.

He quickly sat next to the actress, and patted her shoulder, “Don’t worry, once this is over, I’ll find you a few popular stars, we’ll make a New Year’s blockbuster, and for those advertisements— we’re not short on money! Is it that you spend too much, or that I care too little?”

After speaking, he gave Chen Cang a meaningful look, “Doctor Chen, please check on my girlfriend, can she be cured?”

[Ding! The second chain mission is triggered. Agree to Zheng Guotan and help Xu Ruoyun with the suture. Mission completion rewards: 1. KIM suture thread (green); 2. Experience +200; 3. Skin suturing experience +200. 4. Completing the mission will reveal information about the final task.]

Chen Cang was momentarily taken aback—completing the mission would actually get him green surgical threads!

Moreover, there was still one final part to go. Based on experience in games, the last part of any mission is when the rewards are the most generous!

At this thought, Chen Cang felt a flicker of excitement.

However, Chen Cang was still very clear-headed; he would never take risks without absolute certainty.

He bent down to remove the gauze covering the wound and carefully inspected it.

Underneath the gauze, the wound was revealed!

A mess of flesh and blood!

Was this cut with a knife?

This damn thing clearly looked like it was caused by an irregular object.

A stab wound from a sharp weapon, as long as it was neat, wouldn’t result in such a wound!

But now, on the outer edge of the woman’s fibula, there was a wound about the size of a palm!

The injury looked like… Yes!

It resembled those caused by a broken bottle.

It must be a scrape from a bottle.

Having figured out the cause, Chen Cang said:

“Mr. Zheng, next, I need to check the wound, which might hurt a bit. Please ask your girlfriend to bear with it.”

It has to be said, money truly makes the world go round; at this moment, the room was stocked with several first-aid kits, suture packs, and all sorts of equipment needed for suturing.

Chen Cang recognized some of them, while others he couldn’t even name.

They might be specially designed for cosmetic suturing.

It is said that one of these could cost tens of thousands.

After rinsing with saline, Chen Cang began using tweezers to gently separate the skin for a neater alignment.

Since it was a scrape from a bottle edge, the skin was irregularly torn, like jagged cuts which made the suturing quite challenging!

The difficulty and limited options in puncturing angles were great constraints.

To suture this irregular damage neatly was a daunting task, and because of the irregularity, the greatest challenge was to complete the suture without leaving any scars.

Luckily, the woman had a rose tattoo on her calf, which could possibly offer some concealment, though only to a slight degree.

Chen Cang activated his “Eyes of Beauty” and his eyes continuously searched for the suturing points on the jagged edges, simulating various approaches naturally.

After a considerable time!

Chen Cang looked up; he had found a possible method of suturing—perhaps a round needle would be better!

Normally, skin needles are cutting needles because the skin is thick, with rich hair follicles and sebaceous glands, demanding that the needle tip be sufficiently sharp. Thus, skin needles are cutting needles, with triangular tips and round bodies, designed for skin suturing.

Round needles, on the other hand, are mainly used for soft, easily penetrable tissues, like the peritoneum, gastrointestinal tract, and heart tissue, causing minimal injury when passing through. However, using a round needle for skin suturing is quite rare!
