My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1256: 495: Surge in Benevolence Experience Points, Director Xue Gets Set Up

“Um… family member, could you please fetch the results of the child’s bone marrow cell culture and the repeat blood culture?”
Zhou Can dismissed the family member.
The patient’s mother was no fool; she clearly knew some matters her son preferred not to discuss in her presence.
“Xiao Wei, work with Dr. Zhou to answer his questions. I’ll retrieve your test results.”
“Okay!”
The patient and his parents didn’t seem to talk a lot.
During rounds, Zhou Can never spotted the patient conversing with his parents. Instead, he observed the boy lounging in bed on his phone, while his mother either dozed at the bedside or stared at her own device.
Each morning, she fetched hot water to clean the patient’s face and hands.
Once the mother departed, he whispered, “Dr. Zhou, I’ve got a girlfriend now; she’s the most beautiful girl in our class!” Mentioning her, he brimmed with pride.
“Really? That’s awesome!”
Zhou Can reflected that campus students, even adults, remained remarkably pure-hearted.
Society acts like a vast vat of dye, transforming naive youths into cunning adults.
Though university life involves handling all sorts of relationships, it pales beside the harsh real world, earning it the label of a ‘greenhouse’.
“Check this out, here’s my girlfriend—doesn’t she look stunning?”
The patient pulled up his phone’s photo album, displaying a snapshot of his girlfriend to Zhou Can, proving his claim true.
Zhou Can glimpsed a lovely girl with a playful pout, her hands flashing a peace sign beside her face.
“She’s truly gorgeous. Capturing the class beauty must’ve meant outshining plenty of rivals, huh?”
“You bet! I dominate online games. I draw too, portraits especially—teachers rave about my skills. If you like, I’ll sketch your portrait one day and gift it to you.”
“Great! You’re full of talents; no surprise you snagged the prettiest girl in class.”
Zhou Can sensed that certain young men appeared defiant on the outside, yet that was merely a facade.
At just 20 years old, this fellow’s body harbored numerous lurking threats. Lacking guidance, regret would come too late if death struck someday.
“Xiao Wei, some topics aren’t typically my place to broach, but your offer of a painting reveals your kind and appreciative nature. As your doctor, I must warn you: sticking to your old habits of erratic eating, poor routines, and no exercise could mean you won’t see 30. Your girlfriend would be devastated then.”
Dire situations demand harsh remedies.
Rebellious youth respond best to talks hitting close to home.
Otherwise, they’d shrug off collapsing heavens.
Someone taller would always shoulder the burden anyway.
Zhou Can seldom mentioned death in patient chats.
Warning this boy that unchanged habits might cut his life short before 30 held no hype; stomach ulcers can swiftly evolve into cancer under the right circumstances.
Intestinal issues abound too, like rampant colon and rectal cancers.
The digestive system alone packs lethal perils. Late nights and sloppy meals weaken immunity, spiking chances of deadly malignancies.
“That bad, really?”
Youthful and shocked, the patient paled at the prospect of dying before 30.
“No exaggeration here. Surviving this round was pure fortune. But rest easy—the world keeps turning sans anyone. Die young, and your girlfriend moves on to a new beau. With her looks, she’ll land a rich guy, living well. Your parents suffer most, childless, facing torment, poverty, and want…”
Zhou Can knew how to prod these defiant teens in talks.
Crucial matters deserve casual delivery, as if from an outsider.
“Don’t frighten me… I refuse to die. Any solution?”
Outmatched by Zhou Can, the patient surrendered fast, eagerly asking for life-saving tips.
Zhou Can felt inner joy, though his face stayed stern.
“A path exists, yet it may prove tough for you!”
“I’ll manage it; spill it quick!”
“Start by eating breakfast daily…”
Zhou Can methodically listed key cautions.
Overwhelmed by the details, the patient whipped out his phone to jot notes.
His changed demeanor delighted Zhou Can inwardly—persuasion worked.
He wished this youth would ditch vices and stay committed.
[Compassionate Heart Experience Points +1, Compassionate Heart Experience Points reward +1000.]
The abrupt jump in unique medical skill points stunned Zhou Can.
This windfall hit without warning.
Compassionate Heart Experience Points stayed enigmatic; Zhou Can still puzzled over gaining them and their true purpose.
He silently figured this boost stemmed from an off-duty good turn: guiding the patient to grasp his health woes and adopt better habits.
The 1000-point bonus probably marked the debut of this approach in patient care.
