about it.Xiao Yu didn’t understand how things worked here, but from what Doctor Bai said, he knew that she wouldn’t do anything to hurt Yun Xi. However, he was concerned that others might use her as...Chapter 63: Sleeping Beauty
Just as a few people were about to enter the病房, the living room door was pulled open from outside. A female doctor in her fifties walked in with three young doctors.
The female doctor, upon entering and seeing several people inside, paused and said to Wan Hongguang: "Secretary Wan! Hello!"
Wan Hongguang, recognizing the incoming female doctor, said: "Doctor Zhao, making rounds"
Dr. Zhao, named Zhao Jing, is the chief physician of the senior officials' ward in Gucheng City. Since Wan Hongguang's daughter moved in, she naturally became Dr. Zhao's primary patient. Because of Wan Hongguang’s influence, Zhao Jing made it a point to come here first thing after work every day, even though she knew that Wan Jiayi's illness could not be cured.
"Doctor Zhao, this is Xiao Yu. He's also a doctor who has come to help treat Jiayi!" Wan Hongguang introduced as he pointed at Xiao Yu.
"Xiao Yu"
At that moment, an arrogant voice emerged from among the doctors Dr. Zhao brought with her.
Xiao Yu heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from behind and turned to look. A male doctor, around 25 or 26 years old, nearly six feet tall and rather handsome, came into view.
"Wang Zi" Xiao Yu said.
"Haha, Xiao Yu really is you!" Saying this, Wang Zi walked over and patted Xiao Yu's shoulder.
"Little Wang, do you know each other" Zhao Jing saw the two of them greet each other and seemed very familiar, so she asked.
"Director Zhao, we know each other. We were classmates for four years in university! Xiao Yu is a celebrity at our school! He's either number one or second every year, at worst he’s third!" Wang Zi said with an air of arrogance upon hearing Zhao Jing's question.
Wang Zi didn't expect to run into Xiao Yu here. Back then, Xiao Yu was the absolute mainstay of the school basketball team, and his fame was unparalleled. This made Wang Zi, who came from the same province as Xiao Yu, very envious.
Both of Wang Zi's parents were high-level officials at a hospital in Yan City, and he himself came from the provincial capital city, whereas Xiao Yu was just a poor kid from a small county. Wang Zi believed that by birthright he should be superior to Xiao Yu. However, after entering the Deep Sea College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Xiao Yu's overwhelming popularity left Wang Zi, who considered himself noble-born, gasping for breath.
Whenever Wang Zi met his classmates and mentioned that he was from Yan Province, they would say, "Oh, you're from the same place as Xiao Yu!" This made the highly self-regarding Wang Zi hate Xiao Yu intensely. But Wang Zi had a deep sense of reserve and never expressed it openly. Knowing from an early age, through his parents' influence in hospitals, that everything at school was fake, he secretly vowed to make life difficult for Xiao Yu after graduation and humiliate him thoroughly as revenge for the four years they spent together.
He didn't expect this day to come so quickly. Initially very unhappy about being arranged by his parents to do an exchange doctor stint at an old city hospital, he now felt extremely grateful that his parents had given him a chance for vengeance.
Wang Zi deliberately inquired about Xiao Yu and found out that he was unemployed and hadn't even obtained the qualification of assistant physician. But Wang Zi didn’t expect Xiao Yu to dare come and treat the daughter of the city party secretary of the old city, instinctively regarding Xiao Yu as a fraudster. He felt his moment had arrived, and he wanted to expose Xiao Yu's scam; with the power wielded by the Old City Party Secretary, they might even be able to put Xiao Yu behind bars. Thinking this, an evil smile involuntarily curled up at the corners of his mouth.
Xiao Yu, who was originally excited to see a classmate, gradually had a darkening expression as he heard Wang Zi talk about his achievements, reminding him of a friend he betrayed when just starting out in his career.
Although Xiao Yu now isn't as naive as when he first graduated from university, back then at school, because they came from the same province, he and this Wang Zi had some interactions. But Xiao Yu couldn't remember where he might have offended Wang Zi to make him treat him like this
"Oh, so Xiao Xiao is also a top student at the Deep Sea Traditional Chinese Medicine College I never would have guessed!" Upon hearing Wang Zi mention that Xiao Yu's grades were always in the top three, Zhao Jing casually remarked.
"That’s right! A top student indeed! Too bad it’s the bottom of the class! Hahaha........." After listening to Zhao Jing's words, Wang Zi looked at Xiao Yu with disdain and burst into laughter. His laughter was very unrestrained, as if he wanted to laugh away all his grievances over the years.
At this moment, Xiao Yu’s face had already calmed down. If they wanted to say something, let them say it; there was nothing he could do about it since what they said was true.
Hearing Wang Zi's words, Wan Hongguang and the others' expressions instantly darkened. They cautiously glanced at Xiao Yu, worried that Xiao Yu would be too embarrassed to continue dealing with things because of this. After all, regardless of how his studies were, his medical skills were there for everyone to see! Others might not know about it, but they knew that even experts from the Central Health Bureau couldn’t cure Song Shanshan’s son or Zhong Lao's illness, while Xiao Yu had solved them effortlessly. That was strength; he didn't care what his grades were.
However, Wang Zi wasn't at this level of awareness and thought that Wan Hongguang and the others' grim faces were because they found out that Xiao Yu was a fraudster.
Zhao Jing looked at Wang Zi with slightly furrowed eyebrows. Although she didn’t say anything, she had some reservations about him in her heart; such people might betray you without warning. And the two young doctors who came with Wang Zi also took a step back cautiously. However, all of this was ignored by Wang Zi, who felt he had finally avenged himself.
Currently, Xiao Yu completely ignored Wang Zi and walked towards the opened hospital room. Wan Hongguang and the others hurriedly followed him.
Zhao Jing glanced at Wan Hongguang and saw that he didn't say anything. She then decided to follow them in as well; although she disapproved of Wang Zi's character, what he said might be true, so she wanted to see for herself to prevent any unexpected situations. After all, she was the primary doctor treating Wan Jiayi, so she would bear some responsibility if something happened.
The two young doctors who came with Zhao Jing also quickly followed when they saw her enter. Wang Zi, still laughing heartily and seeing that his words had no effect, secretly cursed but then went in as well; he wanted to see Xiao Yu treat the patient and hoped he would kill the mayor's daughter.
In the hospital room lay a young girl at the age when flowers bloom. Although her complexion was slightly pale due to illness, there was no denying that she was very pretty with her short black hair, long eyelashes, delicate features, and lying quietly in bed like a princess from a fairy tale.
Wang Zi looked at the lying少女 in the hospital bed, and a glimmer of desire flashed across his eyes. However, he quickly suppressed it because he knew this girl was not someone he could toy with easily. Although he had molested many female patients before, those were all from ordinary families; even if discovered, some money would suffice to handle the situation.
Xiao Yu walked up and took the girl's wrist to feel her pulse. Gradually, his brows furrowed tightly. The condition was more severe than he had imagined: there was almost no sign of brain activity in the patient, with very serious congestion of head meridians—severe destruction of the cerebral cortex according to Western medicine, indicating an impending state of brain death.
Seeing Wan Jiayi lying on the hospital bed, Zhao Jing helplessly shook her head. She had been studying Wan Jiayi's medical records and knew that a miracle was necessary for her to regain consciousness. Wan Jiayi’s condition was beyond what medicine could treat!
Wan Hongguang, Song Hushan, Song Hualing, and Zhou Ruoying clearly trusted Xiao Yu very much; they watched him with great anticipation. Originally, Wan Hongguang and Song Hualing had given up hope, but when they heard that Xiao Yu had cured autism, they knew their nephew's condition was one doctors were at a loss to treat—but Xiao Yu managed it with just several doses of medicine, which ignited a flicker of hope in them. When they found out that Doctor Zhong’s illness was also treated by Xiao Yu, this hope intensified immensely.
Seeing the increasingly furrowed brows on Xiao Yu's face, Wan Hongguang and others felt their hearts being tugged violently. However, no one spoke; even their breaths were barely audible as they patiently waited for Xiao Yu to finish feeling the pulse of Wan Jiayi.
When Xiao Yu finished taking the pulse, Wan Hongguang and others asked urgently, "Little Brother Xiao, how is it"
"I need to see Jiayi's medical records; as detailed as possible!" said Xiao Yu with a frown after pondering for a moment.
Wang Zi saw Xiao Yu put on an expert-like demeanor and thought disdainfully, "Given your level of expertise, can you really understand it Just pretending."
Xiao Yu was indeed too young, and this girl had been essentially given up as lost. Zhao Jing did not hold much hope for him either, but since he was a doctor invited by Secretary Wan, there was nothing wrong with reviewing the medical records. So Zhao Jing waved to a younger doctor who came with her, and that doctor handed an envelope containing the medical files to Xiao Yu.over the head with it."Does that mean Daoist Brother Xiao is also an unaffiliated cultivator" After believing Xiao Yu’s words, Wang Xiong looked at Xiao Yu nervously and asked urgently.“Hehe, I suppos...
