My Dear Guardian

Episode 29

Go and get a CT scan.

You might get the result in the morning at the soonest.

Okay, thanks, doctor.

Doctor.

Why did you push me?

I'm letting the doctor see my scans.

Well, get in line.

It's my turn.

Sir, wait outside.

After I'm done with him,

I'll talk to you.

Heard that?

The doctor told you to wait outside.

Doctor,

Director Yue introduced me to come see you.

Who cares who introduced you?

I could say the hospital dean introduced me.

Watch what you say, mister.

Are you a civilised human?

Are you even human?

What's this ruckus? Stop arguing!

Get out of here if you want to argue.

Doctor!

Please get me a number.

Are you the patient?

The patient is outside.

Get them in.

I can't. They can't walk.

I said, get the patient in here!

If they don't come in,

how am I supposed to check?

Argue here and there!

What is there to argue?

Doctor, are you okay?

Dr Zhang...

Doctor.

You have a nose bleed, doc.

A nose bleed.

Don't just stand there. Get help!

-Doctor. -Dr Zhang.

Shut up.

Get help!

I'm a military man.

I won't give up.

Chen Meng Zhen.

I won't give up on you.

Liang Mu Ze, are you free right now?

I need a favour.

Meng Zhen.

Is it about Zhang Yi Chi?

I can't stay put.

Who are you kidding?

I still have to do my rounds.

I need to operate.

Patients are waiting for me to save them.

-You people are interrupting my work. -Son!

Yi Chi, your condition is serious!

You need to rest.

-You hear me? -That's right, son.

Listen to the doctor.

Take the medication first.

Listen to the doctor.

I am a doctor.

I'm the chief physician.

I believe in science.

I only believe in hard data.

What illness do I have?

You have acute hepatitis.

Acute hepatitis?

You must be kidding me.

Do you know what the symptoms are for acute hepatitis?

Will a person with acute hepatitis be as calm as me?

Acute hepatitis causes one to lose judgement,

to be easily agitated!

They won't be able to think clearly.

The skin turns yellow. Yellow like jaundice.

Do I look yellow?

-Is my face yellow? -Take a look yourself.

Am I yellow? Am I?

Take a good look. I'm...

The mirror is yellow!

-Yi Chi. -Son!

Ms Meng Zhen.

How is he?

He's not doing very well.

Dr Zhang cut himself during an operation

and was infected with Hepatitis B.

Despite getting an immunoglobulin shot right after,

the virus is too toxic

and it caused the onset of severe acute hepatitis just now.

There are signs of hepatic encephalopathy

and bleeding.

He's not thinking straight

and keeps resisting our help.

What do you need me to do?

Try and keep him calm.

Make him work with us.

Alright.

Will I be able to?

Of course.

When we were administering emergency care,

he kept calling your name.

Compared to others,

I'm sure he's more willing to listen to you.

That's why I asked Liang Mu Ze to go and get you.

Okay, I understand.

-Let's go. -Okay.

Yi Chi, you're now the patient.

You need to quiet down. Don't get agitated!

-Dr Zhang. -Dr Zhang!

You can't stop me.

I don't want this.

Stop holding me down.

Mr Zhang.

Look who's here.

Who asked you to come?

Xia Chu, get her out of here.

This is an infectious zone.

You, get out!

I'll keep you company.

I'll help you get treated.

No need to be scared.

I'm not scared.

I'll stay with you.

Lie down.

Yi Chi, listen to her.

Lie down.

Sir.

Do you have any other input

regarding Yi Chi's treatment?

No.

Well,

I've stopped practising a long time ago.

Besides,

internal medicine isn't my expertise.

We'll do as you see fit, all right?

Meng Zhen is here.

What about Xiao Jun?

He's with a neighbour.

He knows Dr Zhang is sick.

He told the mum

that he'll be good

and that he can take care of himself.

A mature boy.

When will Yi Chi

be able to wake up?

I don't know.

Acute hepatitis

has a survivability rate

of 50 to 70 percent.

Right now, we're using an artificial liver

to get rid of the toxins in his blood.

Currently, this is the most effective method

to treat acute hepatitis.

But...

But what?

Each time, 50 percent of his plasma

has to be removed.

This means that

a series of allergic reactions

and potential risk of infection

are highly likely.

♫ The embrace I long for ♫

♫ Comes up in my dreams often ♫

♫ If I hang in there ♫

♫ I know love will surely come, someday ♫

♫ Whatever evidence ♫

♫ Requires no validation ♫

♫ It is our shared secret ♫

♫ Keeping it close to the heart ♫

♫ The embrace I long for ♫

♫ Comes up in my dreams often ♫

♫ If I hang in there ♫

♫ I know love will surely come, someday ♫

-Come in. -Rao Zhi.

The chief wants you at the meeting room.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Xiao Xue.

I have work to do.

Wait here.

Mu Ze will send you home later.

Okay.

Dad.

All the best!

Thanks.

Tian Yong.

Assistance from the Special Forces Brigade.

Rao Feng.

Captain of the Criminal Investigation Division of Public Security Bureau.

An experienced officer on fieldwork.

He's currently in charge of the task force.

Good day, sir.

You've read the materials?

Yes, sir.

I also did some extra research.

On what?

Reporting.

Triad rituals and social network.

From now on,

you may skip the 'reporting' when speaking.

Yes, sir.

No need for the 'yes, sirs' too.

Where's your hometown?

I don't know.

I'm an orphan.

I grew up in an orphanage.

Are you married?

No.

A girlfriend?

Do you have one?

No.

The bait we left

on the City of Desire

has gotten a response.

The Scary Pirate

has accepted our proposal for a deal.

We've confirmed a date and venue.

Bear in mind.

The goal of this operation

is not an arrest.

It is to assist our internal operations

set the trap.

to determine

Scary Pirate's real identity

and find the mastermind behind the ID,

Old Master.

Any questions?

No.

Yes.

I'd like a smartphone.

I'm so tired.

I shouldn't have come back with you.

I didn't ask you to come back.

You yourself didn't want to go to the unit.

If Tian Yong isn't there,

there's no point for me to stay there.

By the way, Tian Yong was shot, right?

How is he now?

Did he get it checked?

He hasn't been going to the hospital.

He wouldn't answer my calls too.

Has he gone back to the unit?

Is there a new mission?

Can't you call him

and help me get in touch?

Just worry about yourself.

Don't bother Tian Yong unnecessarily.

When did I bother him?

I'm just concerned about him.

When are you going back to the US?

I'm not.

Xiao Xue.

The explosion that happened

isn't as simple as it seemed.

The culprit dared to do something so brazen.

It means they're prepared.

You get it?

Although the neighbourhood is now under police watch,

but as long as you're here,

your dad must be worried.

So tell me where Tian Yong is.

I'll go to him.

No.

Why?

What why?

Why should you go to him?

I'm his girlfriend.

Has Tian Yong accepted you?

His girlfriend?

You're just a girl.

You can't decide on your own.

Well, has Xia Chu accepted you?

You're also pestering her.

Who said Xia Chu hasn't accepted me?

No need to pretend. I know the truth.

You two aren't really together.

You're just putting on a show for Aunt.

You guys live in one house

but sleep in separate rooms.

There's no tension either because you're useless

or she's sick.

Listen up, Liang Shao Xue.

There are many types of love.

For Xia Chu and I,

we are...

the kind that love

with reason.

Well, Tian Yong and I are

the kind that doesn't need proclamation to act on it.

He doesn't have to admit it.

I know I'm in his heart.

Where do you get the confidence from?

You're not

What's the matter with you?

Your love is real love,

but mine isn't?

It's my love, my feelings. It doesn't concern you.

If you won't stop putting me down,

I might just tell Aunt

about your fake relationship.

I dare you to try.

I will. Try me.

Where are you going?

To the hospital.

Dr Zhang.

It's okay.

What do you need, Dr Zhang?

I want to check on the patients.

Dr Zhang, in your condition,

I don't think it's a good idea.

Don't worry.

I'll be careful.

I'll keep my distance.

What?

Face mask.

Here.

Okay.

Thanks.

Hello, Dr Zhang.

Is the director here?

Go and get him, quick!

Bed 21's patient's heart has stopped!

What's the situation?

Dr Zhang.

Doctor, he's in critical condition.

I've pressed the alarm.

Director Chen should be here.

Where do you feel unwell?

I'm having shortness of breath.

The pressing is making it worse.

Stop pressing.

I can't stop, sir.

His heart will stop if I stop.

Listen to me and stop pressing.

You see this?

The electrode sheet fell off.

Okay, keep calm.

Relax.

You're okay.

Okay.

The signal is back, right?

I... I thought...

Sorry, doctor.

Don't be so absent-minded next time.

Yes, sir.

Okay.

Everything is fine.

I remember you.

You're the doctor with acute hepatitis.

What are you doing in our ward?

Acute hepatitis?

Hear me out.

Stay away from me!

Don't come close!

Is that true?

-Yes, it's him. -Don't worry.

Don't come near. Stay away!

Stay away!

Don't come near.

Xia Chu.

Ms Meng Zhen.

Yi Chi is missing.

Isn't he in the room?

I fell asleep.

He was gone when I woke up.

Don't be alarmed.

Dr Zhang is in

a stable condition.

He should be all right.

He probably stepped out for some fresh air.

Xia Chu.

What is it?

Dr Zhang is in a bit of trouble at the cardiovascular ward.

Director Chen wanted me to come get you.

Let's go there.

Director Chen.

We are sick people.

Our immunity

is at its weakest.

How could he simply enter our ward like that?

What if we got infected?

He has Hepatitis B.

That's an incurable disease!

Don't you know that?

Now, now. Please calm down and let me speak.

Yes, Dr Zhang did

contract the hepatitis virus

during an operation.

But after receiving treatment,

all of his vital signs

have returned to normal.

So you guys need not worry.

Moreover,

Hepatitis B is usually spread through...

No need for the useless explanation.

Once you have Hepatitis B,

there's no way to remain normal.

We need to trust in science.

Are you speaking for him

because you're a doctor too?

Not at all.

You should be thinking about the patients.

You have to be responsible for our health and safety.

Yes, okay.

But we must have faith in science, no?

Just now, his spit

got onto me.

What if I contracted Hepatitis B?

Listen, don't worry. His vitals are back to normal.

-Stop it! -All right?

Sirs.

I think you're mistaken.

Dr Zhang contracted Hepatitis B.

It doesn't make him a monster.

He went to the ward to treat patients,

not to spread the virus to you and harm you.

If such simple contact

meant quarantine,

then my advice to you

is to just stay at home and never go outside.

Or else you might get into an accident on the road,

or get smashed to death by a falling billboard.

The possibility of that

is higher than your chances of getting infected by Dr Zhang.

Whatever!

You can stop your nonsense!

You guys are clearly accomplices.

You probably have Hepatitis B too.

Stay away from me!

What?

I'm going to sue you.

I'm going to sue you!

I'll get your license revoked!

Shut up!

Are you finished?

The doctor hit me!

The doctor hit me!

The doctor hit me!

Get lost with your nonsense!

You heard me?

They're doctors but I'm not.

One more word and I'll kick you out!

That patient

has been quite a handful.

Every time he's here for a check-up, he wouldn't let resident doctors near him.

He always thinks the staff are up to no good.

So the way he acted today

wasn't targetted at you specifically.

It was more

a purging of his emotions.

So don't take it personally.

No need to feel bad.

We should focus on your recovery instead.

Sir, can I still go back to operating?

With the proper treatment,

if the surface antigen and E antigen are negative,

it means

there isn't inflammation or infectiousness.

Then of course you can.

What if something like today

happens again?

Do patients know what E antigen is??

Or surface antigen?

Will they be able to trust me again?

Look.

Aside from cardiac surgery,

the hospital has the administrative department.

I always believe that

a doctor's worth

isn't tied solely to doing surgery.

Right?

They can also...

You know I love the feeling of holding the scalpel.

Straightforward.

Accurate.

Using the most direct way to solve a problem.

Following a clear direction.

Be it good or bad,

there's always an answer at the end.

It's within my own control.

Of course,

the administrative department

plays an important role too.

But it's not what I want to do.

If it comes down to that,

I'd rather leave.

What are you talking about?

With the way you are now,

aside from the hospital,

where else can you get a similar job?

To me,

the doctor's coat

and the military uniform underneath

are not only

a representation of a job.

I mean it.

It's my fault.

I shouldn't have slept so soundly.

Ms Meng Zhen,

don't say that.

Nobody expected

such a thing to happen.

Life is unpredictable.

Zhang Yi Chi went to see me at the book store recently.

He sort of confessed his feelings to me.

But I turned him down.

Because I felt that it would be too hard

for us to be together.

Thinking back now,

aside from death,

what else matters?

What can be more important?

Sometimes in life,

we should really be more upfront with ourselves.

Otherwise, you'd unknowingly

leave behind a whole bunch of regrets.

Ms Chen.

Uncle, aunty.

You went through an ordeal.

It's nothing.

Where is Zhang Yi Chi?

Director Chen is having a word with him.

I'll go find him.

Doctor Li.

I think you shouldn't go.

Let's wait for him here.

Right, we should wait for him here.

Yi Chi.

Yi Chi, how are you?

I'm fine, Mum.

-I'm going to be discharged. -What? No.

Yi Chi, don't be hasty.

You've just recovered.

You should be monitored a while more.

No need.

I want to go home.

Yi Chi.

Zhang Yi Chi.

Mr Zhang, Mrs Zhang.

I'm truly sorry about what happened.

It's fine.

Director Chen,

we'd like to talk to

Yi Chi's supervising doctor.

Is that okay?

Sure, I'll arrange for it.

Okay.

Xia Chu.

You were the first doctor to treat Dr Zhang.

Tag along.

Okay.

Meng Zhen.

Mu Ze.

Please go and buy some food for him.

He hasn't eaten anything all day.

Okay.

I was on leave for personal reasons.

I only just heard what happened.

What did I tell you?

If you had listened,

and waited for his test results

before you did the operation,

you wouldn't be in this situation now.

Now what.

You failed to save the patient

and put your health in jeopardy.

What was that for?

Nothing.

I'm just stupid.

Okay?

Yes, you're stupid.

I've told you many times.

A doctor

is just a profession after all.

You're not god.

Don't put all your hopes

on being able to change the scheme of things.

Towards patients,

we can do our best to save them.

But we don't have to risk our lives.

Ms Li Juan.

Do you remember when we were in our second year

and had our first dissection lesson?

What did Dr Su write on the blackboard?

What?

Those who don't know the past and present

and don't understand heaven and humanity

will not attain immortal skills

or the heart of Buddha.

Better to focus on working the land and weaving to make a living

than to partake in medical care

and cause trouble.

Any recollection?

None.

Did he write that?

Yes.

You forgot.

You're right.

I am not god.

I even made

such a rudimentary mistake during an operation.

I am not a good doctor, even.

The reason why I give my all

not because I wish to change the circumstance

with my own power.

It's because I rather not be easily influenced by the surrounding.

That's all.

What about now?

Do you still think so?

Of course.

And it isn't just me.

I got the permit.

Really?

That's good news.

Your dream is finally coming true.

Congrats.

If you want me to stay,

I'd consider it.

Even though I don't like

changing my plans for others,

but you're an exception.

I'm willing to do it for you.

As long as you're willing.

Li Juan.

I'm sincerely wishing you the best.

You are finally able

go to where you want,

do what you love.

I'm happy for you.

You take care.

♫ The best would be mutual affection, having good feelings, hiding nothing ♫

♫ The best would be not answering, anticipating, avoiding misery ♫

♫ Whether we argue or show love, it does not matter ♫

You too.

I will.

Take care.

Take care.

♫ The best would be being on the same page ♫

♫ Occasionally romantic, impervious to joy and sorrow ♫

♫ The best would be getting along naturally ♫

♫ Sometimes curious, wanting to learn about the word ♫

♫ Perhaps real happiness is simple after all ♫

Chen Meng Zhen.

Do you have a minute?

I'd like a chat.

Come to my office.

Done packing?

You're here.

Meng Zhen asked me to get you porridge.

Where is she?

She went down to get some air.

Thank you.

What are you

planning to do now?

If this had happened

before I became ill,

I wouldn't care about her stance.

I'd press on.

But now...

Now you have a chance to correct things, right?

We should always look at the bright side.

Do you know the consequences of this illness?

Thanks.

I heard for the past days,

you had been the one looking after him.

Yes.

Back when you brought your son here to seek treatment,

I never thought that

Zhang Yi Chi and you would have an episode.

Do you think his parents would accept you?

I get it.

For a single parent,

his career

and family background

are quite the draw.

Normally,

a person's judgement on others

directly reflect their own

inner thoughts.

Do you know my relationship with him?

I only care about my relationship with him.

I must say you're more impressive

than I thought.

Zhang Yi Chi and I were together for 10 years.

Aside from not having a marriage certificate,

we were as good as a married couple.

No matter who ends up with him in the future,

they will certainly find traces of me

on him.

It was I

who moulded him into who he is.

You were together for 10 years

but still ended up separating.

Aside from lack of love,

I can't think of any other reason.

He has Hepatitis B now.

Do you know what that means?

I mustn't be fatigued.

I have to always be careful

about my physical health.

Currently,

treatment of Hepatitis B is much better than before.

But if it turns into chronic hepatitis,

that will be the end of my clinical practice.

I have no idea what else I could do.

I'm afraid.

Dr Li.

You know what?

I've been the family of a soldier.

Do you know what being a soldier's family entails?

No companionship,

no assurance.

No matter what happens,

you are alone in facing

whatever life throws at you.

From the moment I married a soldier,

until eight years after his demise,

I've been taking care of Xiao Jun alone.

Till I met Dr Zhang

and we had an episode.

Maybe in your eyes,

I have no strong suit.

But at least

I have what it takes

to take on whatever outcome this episode gives me.

Be it love or separation,

joy or sorrow,

this is what I've decided.

I will not regret it

or be afraid.

I think I know

why it's you.

I'll go now, Dr Li.

Put it his way, buddy.

If it was you,

what would you do?

Knowing full well

that you can't give your all

in carrying out your duty as a husband.

For instance, these dishes

might turn bad at any moment.

Will you still claim a free life

in the name of love?

I can't.

Thank you, Dr Hu.

Thank you.

Not at all. It's our duty.

Mr Zhang, don't worry too much.

Yi Chi is still young.

He has good bones.

Make sure he gets enough rest when he gets back.

The condition shouldn't affect

his life and work too much.

How could it not?

Alright, now.

Let the doctors get back to work.

I'm going to the Inpatient Department

to process the discharge.

Go an check on Yi Chi at the ward.

Okay, we'll go now.

I'll accompany you.

Okay, thanks.

Goodbye.

I'm off, Director Chen.

Dr Zhang

is an only son, right?

Xia Chu.

What is it, sir?

Do you want to go back to Cardiac Surgery?

Yi Chi told me that

you're one of

the best resident doctors under his mentorship.

If you wish to return,

I can arrange it with ER.

What about Dr Zhang?

Is he coming back?

He...

He will be transferred to the medical school to teach.

Think it over.

Tell me your decision later.

Aunty.

You came to get Dr Zhang?

Can he go home?

Yes.

Thanks a lot,

for the past few days.

Thank goodness for your company.

Otherwise, Yi Chi's treatment

couldn't have gone so well.

Previously,

regarding you two's relationship,

I admit

that I was against it.

I believed that in terms of credentials,

you two weren't compatible.

I was afraid...

I was afraid that you were in it for something.

I'm sorry, Ms Chen.

I was wrong.

You're not wrong, aunty.

I am in it for something.

I am after him.

His intelligence,

his humour.

His bright and calm demeanour.

If my admiration for him comes across

as a selfish desire in your eyes,

I admit it.

But frankly speaking, isn't love

a form of desire anyway?

So are you

still...

I'm not thinking so far.

I just want to take care of him.

Consider it as repaying him

for saving my son.

Don't say that.

Let's be real.

A doctor is responsible for the patient.

The patient's family has no responsibility

towards the doctor.

You don't owe me anything.

No need to repay.

I'm not asking for it either.

Yi Chi.

That will be all.

♫ I'd like to find out ♫

♫ If my mask of foolishness ♫

♫ Could deceive you ♫

Meng Zhen.

I'll take you home.

♫ I'm putting on my best performance ♫

♫ Is it a little too cruel? ♫

Yi Chi.

♫ The game of adults ♫

Are you okay?

I'm fine, Mum.

♫ The moments of joy along the way ♫

♫ Do not bring them up ♫

Are you sure?

Don't worry.

♫ Whatever evidence ♫

♫ Requires no validation ♫

♫ It is our shared secret ♫

♫ Keeping it close to the heart ♫

♫ The embrace I long for ♫

♫ Comes up in my dreams often ♫

♫ If I hang in there ♫

♫ I know love will surely come, someday ♫

♫ Is it a little too cruel? ♫

♫ The game of adults ♫

Outpatient Department

Dad.

Can we go now, son?

Okay.

Get in, Mum.

Okay.

Mencius said,

a gentleman's happiness lies in three things

Does anyone know

what those three are?

Parents are alive and well,

harmony amongst brothers.

First happiness.

Have nothing to be ashamed of

before God or man.

Second happiness.

Find the most talented individuals and teach and nourish them.

Third happiness.

I was your teacher.

It's my little bit of happiness.

Now I'm going to teach those

who are younger

and have more potential than you.

This will be one big happiness.

You guys should be happy for me.

At the same time,

do even better

to stand

in front of the operating table in place of me.

I hope that after every surgery,

you'd be able to calmly

inform the patient's family

that the operation was a success,

and not

"I've tried my best."

Alright, then.

All the best, comrades.

Salute!

Today, I enter the medical profession

and vow to dedicate my life to serve others.

I thank and respect my teachers,

the same way I treat my parents.

I will practise medicine with conscience and dignity.

The patient's well-being

is of my utmost priority.

Outpatient Department

I will uphold the doctor-patient confidentiality.

I will do my best to honour the reputation and noble tradition

of the medical profession.

My colleagues are my brethren.

I will be responsible for my patients.

I will not let difference in religion,

nationality,

race,

politics or status

affect my service and aid.

From its inception,

a life shall be given utmost dignity.

Even in the face of danger,

my medical knowledge

will not go against humanity.

I solemnly and autonomously

swear on my name

the above declaration.
