Doctor Choi Dae-ho Episode 236

At that time, a truly unexpected person appeared.

It was none other than Kim Gyu-cheol, head of thoracic surgery.

He approached Lee Jeong-seok with a face full of color and looked at him.

“Who is this? I can’t believe I’m seeing Mr. Lee Jeong-seok here.”

“Who are you?”

“I am CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol.”

“I see. Hello.”

Lee Jeong-seok greeted him formally and stiffly.

However, CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol paid no attention and continued to smile.

“This teacher, who was a genius medical student at Seolryul University, came to our Chunghyo. Is there such a thing as this?”

“Yeah, whatever.”

“But why are you here? You shouldn’t be here. Come with me.”

CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol immediately offered to lead me.

Lee Jeong-seok tilted his head with an unmoving face.

“Why should I follow you?”

“What are you talking about? This teacher is a CS. Of course, he should go to our CS, which is the core of Chunghyo University Hospital.”

“That’s the key.”

“I contacted the CS manager of the tax office a little while ago. They were really surprised, so why didn’t you contact them? No, let’s go up and talk.”

CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol tried to brush it off with his smooth, snake-like speech.

But it wasn’t my opponent.

Lee Jeong-seok spoke coldly with a slight smile.

“No matter where I am or what I do, why should I have to report to the tax office every day?”

“Huh? No, but we’re still classmates.”

“If I was going to prioritize that kind of relationship, I would have gone with the tax rate.”

“That’s true, but didn’t we choose loyalty and filial piety like this? So we should go to CS. Right?”

CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol tried to persuade again.

Still, Lee Jeong-seok spoke calmly and without moving an inch.

“The reason I chose Chunghyo, and especially ER, is because of Dr. Richard here.”

“Lee, Mr. Richard?”

“That’s why I came to Korea.”

“What on earth is the relationship between you two?”

CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol blinked with a look of incomprehension.

Lee Jeong-seok’s answer was like a knife.

“Eternal rival. Is this the answer?”

“Hmm. Mr. Lee Jeong-seok. Don’t do that. Let’s go up and talk.”

“I belong here, in the ER, with Richard. I don’t care about anything else.”

Lee Jeong-seok neatly ignored it.

Now, the expression on CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol’s face hardened as if his discomfort was finally starting to show.

“It seems like your judgment is clouded because you haven’t adjusted to the time difference yet. Let’s talk again later when you’ve calmed down.”

“I hope we never have to have this conversation again. I don’t like things to be so wasteful.”

“Okay. Let’s just wait and see. Both of you.”

Whoosh!

CS Manager Kim Gyu-cheol turned around roughly with a face full of displeasure.

On the other hand, Daeho, who had been standing still and then got struck by lightning, blinked.

‘Why am I there?’

He stayed still without saying anything.

That’s why it was even more unfair.

On the one hand, I felt relieved by Lee Jeong-seok’s bold remarks.

‘Ah, a kid I can’t help but hate.’

It was a time when Daeho’s mind was in a state of confusion.

From over there, Wang Jae-seong’s urgent request for help was heard.

“Richard, help me here!”

“What……”

Even before the tiger could react.

Ss …

Lee Jeong-seok ran out quickly and shouted coldly.

“I’ll go. Richard, you stay out!”

“This teacher? Yes, this way!”

Ta-da-dak.

Wang Jae-seong and Lee Jeong-seok quickly moved away together.

Daeho raised his eyebrows and muttered.

“Yes. It has this kind of taste.”

The merit of Lee Jeong-seok’s appearance was definitely felt.

Nurse Yoo Ji-young approached Dae-ho and quietly showed her concern.

“But is it okay if I don’t go?”

“yes.”

“This kind of helper is usually Mr. Richard. It must be an emergency patient.”

“There is no problem since Mr. Lee Jeong-seok is here.”

Nurse Yoo Ji-young was rather confused by Dae-ho’s sharp answer.

“Is this really okay?”

“Of course. He’s a guy I can trust with both feet stretched out when it comes to medicine.”

“Well, what else?”

“Ha. That part gives me a headache too.”

Crackle crackle.

Daeho sighed and turned around.

Nurse Yoo Ji-young blinked at the contrasting appearance.

“What kind of person is this teacher?”

“That’s right. It’s confusing.”

The nurses behind him expressed their agreement.

Until recently, all curiosity was focused on Daeho.

But now it seemed like it had moved on to Lee Jeong-seok.

* * *

That evening.

Daeho, who had just finished work, was sitting at a bar.

In front of such a tiger, Lee Jeong-seok was eating the basic side dish with a calm expression.

“Well, this popcorn is definitely the best in Korea.”

“Ha. Jeongseok. Be more moderate. This isn’t Johns Hopkins.”

“Residents? If you had that kind of skill, Johns Hopkins would have kicked you out right away. Where are you with that kind of skill as a doctor?”

The sarcasm of Lee Jeong-seok, who had become twisted all of a sudden, rang out.

At that moment, Taeho’s eyes fell silent.

“Jeongseok. I’m seriously warning you.”

“Okay. Let’s hear it.”

Lee Jeong-seok also hardened his gaze and showed a sharp aura.

It was just then.

Daeho twisted the soju bottle with a desperate hand.

Squeak.

“If you don’t do it in moderation, it really will just twist and pour like a bottle of alcohol.”

“Ha. Do you think I’ll cower just because you threaten me like that?”

“Then what are you going to do if I follow you like this?”

“If that’s the case, then I should follow suit.”

Slurp.

The two of them growled but still filled each other’s glasses.

Even while drinking, their eyes were glaring at each other.

Daeho, who had put down his glass first, spoke in a much quieter voice.

“Our standards… no, don’t measure them up to our skills.”

“I don’t understand your current appearance. I don’t see you here the way you used to treat Dr. Leone or Dr. Cherry.”

“I told you not to put me on the same level as you.”

“Then how long and to what extent should we understand that ridiculous skill?”

Lee Jeong-seok resisted with an attitude that he could not give in.

Daeho felt that it would be difficult to find common ground in the conversation any further.

He poured alcohol into Lee Jeong-seok’s glass again and spoke calmly and soothingly.

Slurp.

“Jeongseok. You can’t do first aid alone.”

“All we need is nurses. We’ve heard about that story since we were little.”

“That’s true, but there has to be a sense of joy in growing together. We don’t live alone in this world. You know that, too.”

“Hmm. Hmm.”

Lee Jeong-seok pondered something as he filled Dae-ho’s empty glass.

Daeho asked quickly, feeling like the conversation would work.

“Do you understand what I’m saying now?”

“So you’re saying you’re focusing on training residents.”

“Right. Now I understand.”

Bang!

Daeho clinked his glasses with a bright face and excitement.

But that was the tiger’s wish.

It was the right time to put down the empty glass.

Lee Jeong-seok smiled brightly and spoke softly.

“Yeah. You take care of that.”

“hmm?”

“If you give up the opportunity to develop yourself like that, then I welcome it.”

“What does that mean?”

Daeho hesitated for a moment.

But this time, Lee Jeong-seok filled the empty glass and spoke calmly.

“If you focus on training the residents, I’ll help you out a little.”

“You want to teach them too?”

“What are you talking about? Why should I do such a meaningless and wasteful thing?”

“That’s what I just said.”

When Daeho tried to move on again, Lee Jeong-seok agreed.

“It seems you didn’t quite understand what I meant. Think about it again.”

“I’ll definitely help you. Are you saying you’ll just go your own way while I worry about that?”

“Bingo, you’re so perceptive, it’s fun to talk to you.”

Exactly!

Lee Jeong-seok smiled, flicking his hand lightly.

In a way, it was a selfish statement.

But to Daeho, it didn’t sound so bad.

“Yeah, that sounds good. You go your way. I’ll go mine.”

“I think it means let’s not touch each other.”

“Isn’t that what you want?”

When Daeho asked, Lee Jeong-seok nodded with a bitter smile.

“I want that. But can I give orders to the residents about inspections and other miscellaneous tasks?”

“That’s obvious. But if you order me like today, I’ll tell you not to respond.”

“If it’s a cooperative relationship, I would also like to be a bit more gentle.”

Lee Jeong-seok readily promised to adjust the water level.

Daeho didn’t want anything more.

This would be the best for Lee Jeong-seok right now.

“Then let’s just do whatever it takes and apologize to Mr. Seo tomorrow.”

“Apple? During the process of inserting the central venous catheter……”

“Jeongseok. Should we start over from the beginning?”

Daeho made up his mind and squinted his eyes to find out.

Then, unexpectedly, Lee Jeong-seok took a step back.

“Okay, I’ll apologize. But it won’t be a sincere apology.”

“You figure it out.”

Daeho didn’t want it to go that far.

I just wanted to apply some medicine to the wounds engraved in Seo Ju-ran’s heart.

It was at that moment that silence came for a moment.

The main dish, which was ordered with good timing, was served in a flash.

Chuck, chuck.

“Sundubu jjigae and seafood pancake are here.”

The diet was very indigenous.

When the proper side dishes arrived, Daeho and Jeongseok’s eyes sparkled.

“Oh, soft tofu stew is good.”

“This thick seafood pancake. I told you I wanted to eat this.”

“In that sense, shall we have a drink together as a nation?”

“Of course. Let’s fill your glass first.”

Slurp.

Daeho and Lee Jeong-seok joined forces to fill each other’s glasses.

The way he was getting beaten to death was so smooth that the fact that he had been growling just a moment ago was insignificant.

and.

The side dishes eaten while drinking a glass of soju elicited the same exclamations.

“Kuaaa. As expected!”

“This is it. This is it!”

I was so happy that my whole body trembled.

Then, Taeho picked up his glass filled with alcohol and said.

“Anyway, Lee Jeong-seok, welcome to Korea.”

“Haha. Choi Max. You need to be nervous.”

“Try to make it as tense as you can.”

“Haha. That’s provocation. I’ll crush that nose right now.”

Bang!

The two doctors, who had been challenging each other with a few words, clinked their glasses vigorously.

For a competitor like him, his face looked happy while drinking.

This is because this moment is one where we meet as friends, not as doctors.

Miuna and Gouna have been friends since birth.

It was only natural that I was happy to meet you again in my home country.

* * *

The next morning.

Daeho and Lee Jeongseok were sitting in the manager’s office.

The sight of him sitting around with Manager Lee Geon-taek seemed rather calm.

After quite some time, the teacup was empty.

Then, Manager Lee Geon-taek looked at Lee Jeong-seok and said.

“….Let’s try to get along well. Actually, this was something we should have talked about yesterday, but I had to go to a seminar.”

“I heard from the vice president.”

“More than that, I feel reassured knowing that not only this teacher, but also Mr. Richard is in the emergency room.”

“I will try my best not to disappoint you.”

Lee Jeong-seok greeted them politely and with a straight attitude.
