Chapter 77: Ward Rounds

"Hello, I'm Doctor Ling, your surgeon. I would like to perform a checkup on you to see your rate of recovery."

Ling Ran stood right in front of the hospital bed and gently roused the patient snoozing on Bed 1.

"Oh, Doctor Ling."

Patients would never forget a face and person like Ling Ran, even after only a single meeting. The patient rubbed his eyes and looked at the sky outside. Surprised, he mumbled, "What time is it now?"

Ling Ran replied, "Five o'clock. We are performing our ward rounds a little earlier today."

"Ward rounds at five? That's too early, isn't it? Those usually occur at around seven or eight in the morning, right?"

The patient could not help but grumble. His family members had been stirred awake as well. By the looks of it, they did not seem very pleased.

"I'm here to give you all a detailed physical checkup."
