Overpowered Resident Doctor

Chapter 612: Chapter 611: Director, You Are Important

"Feifan, after Yanyan was accidentally injured, Xinyi and I took her everywhere to see famous doctors. We quickly ran out of what little money we had..."

Wang Chuan recounted with a bitter expression on his face, "To make money, Xinyi went to the United States to do business."

"And I transferred to plastic surgery."

He sighed and said, "The reason I switched departments—besides wanting to restore Yanyan’s face through my own efforts—was that it’s simply easier to make money in plastic surgery."

Wang Chuan picked up his teacup, took a sip, and continued, "Xinyi’s dream of making big money in the United States was wishful thinking."

"She was cheated at first and ended up losing quite a bit of money."

"Making money isn’t easy in any country."

Wang Chuan remarked with a sigh, "I had no choice. While I was with Yanyan in the United States for her treatment and recovery, I became an underground doctor."

He explained, "Private hospitals in the United States are very expensive, and you have to wait a long time at public ones. Plus, there are a lot of gangs, and many of their injuries can’t be treated at legitimate medical facilities."

"I mostly handled trauma and cosmetic procedures. After a while, I even made a small name for myself in that part of the States."

"For the first few years, under the pretext of Yanyan’s treatment, I’d spend more than half of every year in the United States."

Wang Chuan said with a sigh of lament, "Feifan, a lot of girls from the lower classes in America are absolutely fanatical about plastic surgery."

"For them, the only assets they can rely on to get a better life are their bodies and their looks."

Wang Chuan added with a self-mocking laugh, "And thanks to the countless opportunities they gave me to practice, my plastic surgery skills improved by leaps and bounds during that period."

Yan Feifan listened in silence, rising to refill Wang Chuan’s teacup.

"After two or three years, I saved a gang leader’s life during a surgery, thanks to a bold move and a bit of luck."

"The man knew how to repay a debt. He helped Xinyi get established in Los Angeles and allowed her business to grow quickly."

"Yanyan’s treatment reached a stopping point, so I brought her back to China. Since then, I’ve spent most of my time here."

Hearing this, Yan Feifan couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Wang, your work as an underground doctor in the United States only broke American laws."

"As long as you don’t go back to the United States, you shouldn’t have to face jail time, right?"

Wang Chuan chuckled humorlessly. "Feifan, there’s more to the story. I broke the law here in China, too."

He paused for a moment before continuing his story. "Even though I spent most of my time in China after that, my career as an underground doctor wasn’t over."

"Xinyi would find wealthy clients who needed to hide their identities or were on the run. She’d have them come to China to find me, and I would perform plastic surgery on them, completely changing their appearance."

"Then, once they recovered, they would leave with fake passports and identities from a third country that Xinyi had prepared for them."

Wang Chuan added, "Feifan, that operating room you, Xiaoyu, and Yanyan found hidden in the basement—that’s where I operated on them."

Yan Feifan let out a sound of understanding. "Oh... So that’s it. I knew something felt off about that operating room."

He then asked, "Mr. Wang, is all of this about to come out?"

Wang Chuan grunted in agreement. "Someone approached Xinyi. They have detailed evidence of our crimes and are blackmailing us..."

"Blackmailing you to do what?" Yan Feifan pressed.

Wang Chuan hesitated for a moment. "That person knows about our connection to you. They want us to arrange for you to go abroad for a surgery."

"Go abroad?"

Yan Feifan said, frustrated, "Why does it have to be abroad? Can’t they come here for the surgery?"

"I’d even do it for free, that’s not the issue."

Wang Chuan gave a wry smile. "That’s the problem. They insist the surgery can’t be done in China."

"Xinyi and I suspect the person has government ties."

"They want you to go abroad, probably to operate on some important, sensitive individuals who can’t come to China."

Wang Chuan sighed in lament. "The arm of the law is long. I always knew this would all come to light eventually."

"Fortunately, Yanyan’s face will be restored soon, so I have no regrets."

Yan Feifan then asked, "And Mrs. Zhong?"

Wang Chuan waved a dismissive hand. "She’s been prepared for a long time."

"Since government forces are involved in this, what happens next is out of our control."

"Feifan, if you go abroad this time, you might not come back."

"We won’t let you take that risk."

Wang Chuan stood up. "I’m going to the police station now to turn myself in. I’ll confess and hope for leniency."

"Maybe when they see how determined Xinyi and I are, they’ll leave her alone to stay on your good side!"

"Mr. Wang, wait!"

Yan Feifan stopped Wang Chuan as he was about to leave. "They may have government forces on their side, but it’s not like we don’t have government connections of our own."

"Let’s ask for help first before you do anything..."

As he spoke, Yan Feifan took out his phone and dialed 1103141.

The call connected quickly. To Yan Feifan’s surprise, an unfamiliar woman’s voice came through the phone.

"Hello, welcome to the Home Beauty Service Center. How may I help you?"

Yan Feifan froze, glancing again at the numbers he had dialed on his phone’s screen.

’I didn’t dial the wrong number, so how did I get a customer service center?’

Yan Feifan said, testing the waters, "Hello!"

"I’m Yan Feifan, a doctor at Binhai University Affiliated Hospital. Someone told me I could call this number if I needed help."

He then asked, "Sorry to bother you, but what exactly does this service center do?"

A moment later, another voice came on the line.

This time, it was the familiar voice of the potbellied man Yan Feifan knew.

"Mr. Yan, you shouldn’t call this number unless it’s for something urgent or important."

Yan Feifan rolled his eyes and cut in, "Of course, I know. I wouldn’t call if it wasn’t important."

"I’m calling because I have something important to ask for your help with."

He then briefly explained Wang Chuan’s situation.

Finally, Yan Feifan asked in a grave tone, "Can you help with this or not?"

"Mr. Wang may have broken the law, but he never harmed any of our own citizens. He should get a lighter sentence for that, right?"

The moment Yan Feifan finished speaking, the man on the phone said, "Mr. Yan, have Dr. Wang Chuan go to No. 427, Binhe South Road right now."

"There are some things we need to understand in greater detail before we can make a decision."

After ending the call, Yan Feifan gave the address to Wang Chuan and added a warning, "Mr. Wang, that guy is probably from a secret national security department."

"Maybe, just like in the movies, you can strike a deal for cooperation and get judicial immunity."

Wang Chuan forced a smile. "Let’s hope so."

"Oh, by the way, Feifan, Dr. Ning Shan from Baiyun Medical Beauty contacted me. She said she hopes to come over and see you next week."

Yan Feifan replied casually, "Sure. Her procedure is a minor one, it’ll only take ten or twenty minutes."

He paused, then said with concern, "Mr. Wang, I should still go with you."

"After all, I’m more familiar with him than you are."

Faced with the possibility of prison time, Wang Chuan appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he was panicking.

He was, of course, grateful to have Yan Feifan come with him.

"Feifan, but you have that dinner party tonight..."

Yan Feifan cut him off. "It’s fine. They aren’t important. You are, Mr. Wang..."
