Lu Chuan and Su Wan were once known throughout Union Hospital as the “perfect power couple.”
He was the hospital’s top thoracic surgeon, the one who could decide life or death with a single operation. She was the ICU ace who could predict a patient’s condition just by listening to the monitor’s tones.
After refusing to help the hospital director perform a corrupt surgery, they were “shown the door” and transferred to the district’s Third Hospital.
The entire hospital took them for failures rejected by the big-city medical center.
The department chief dumped the unwanted beds under Lu Chuan’s care, while the head nurse called Su Wan “a nepotism hire who can’t even give an injection.”
Then, one late night, the monitor let out a piercing ventricular fibrillation alarm.
The chief said, “Let him try.”
Three minutes later, the ECG returned to normal, and the entire department fell silent.
Lu Chuan set down the defibrillator paddles and looked toward the observation room. “Chief, should I keep pretending?”
A pair of champions posing as rookies: they shower the room with affection while turning the tables, and bring down the corrupt hospital director once and for all.
