ly realized they had stopped talking and were looking at him. He immediately understood that they did not want him to hear what they were discussing. He then stood up and said, "Mr. Jin, Ms. Xiao, sin...Chapter 9 Director Hu
"General Manager Fang, let's go and take a look together," Xiao Yu said confidently. At this moment, Xiao Yu exuded an indescribable aura that greatly boosted Wei Jun and Fang Yuan’s confidence.
The top floor of the Antique City was a place shrouded in mystery for Xiao Yu; he had been working there for several months but never ventured up to it. He only heard snippets from staff who came to the medical room for medication, that the facilities on the top floor were extremely luxurious, comparable to five-star hotels, and were reserved specifically for important guests.
Whenever they talked about it, Xiao Yu thought they were exaggerating, but upon reaching there, he realized not only was their description not exaggerated, it fell short of reality. It surpassed a five-star hotel in luxury.
Xiao Yu followed Fang Yuan to Room 3; stepping inside, his first impression was that it was spacious—around 100 square meters—and divided into inner and outer rooms: the inner room being a bedroom, while the outer served as a living area. The living area was overly spacious with opulent decor, complete with high-end leather sofas and dark red wood furniture, and floors carpeted in luxurious rugs that felt soft underfoot.
Sitting in the living area were around seven people, including 'Teacher Bai' and 'Teacher Mao,' all of whom had their brows furrowed as they smoked silently. Despite the sophisticated ventilation system, smoke lingered heavily in the room. When Fang Yuan brought Xiao Yu in, everyone nodded at them.
Xiao Yu followed Fang Yuan to sit on a sofa; from the bedroom came murmurs of conversation. Raising his head, he saw several people inside—two doctors in white coats, one nurse, and one service staff member from the Antique City: a middle-aged man in his fifties, and another young man in his thirties.
The thirty-something-year-old male approached the patient with an expression of joy, saying, "Teacher Cai, this is Director Hu from Deep Sea People's Hospital. He’s one of China’s renowned gastroenterologists! With him here, you can rest assured!" Then turning to the service staff member beside him, he instructed, “Keep someone here 24/7; arrange shifts for everyone.”
Dr. Hu took a pair of sterilized gloves and put them on calmly, then picked up the medical records and flipped through them while casually asking, "Why are you here Why didn't you check into the hospital"
In the living room, Mr. Bai spoke up: "He did go to the hospital last night but it didn't help at all; Old Cai refused to stay." After Mr. Bai finished speaking, both doctors in the bedroom looked embarrassed.
Dr. Hu didn’t answer and went straight to Teacher Cai’s bedside. He checked the label on the IV drip, observed the patient's complexion, then took out a small flashlight from the medical kit to examine the patient's eye fundus by lifting his eyelids. "How is the patient's bowel movement"
"Yellow-green watery stool with foam; 13 times since yesterday afternoon," answered the nurse in the bedroom.
Dr. Hu walked up to the bedside and asked, "How are you feeling now"
"Dizzy, tired, no energy…"
"What's the patient’s temperature" Dr. Hu didn’t even look up as he asked.
"It has been fluctuating between 38.8 and 39.5 degrees," said the nurse after checking the records on the table.
"Have you done the 'occult blood stool routine' and 'bacterial smear test'"
"We have. Here are the lab results." One of the doctors in the bedroom handed over some test reports and slides to Director Huo.
Director Huo stepped out of the bedroom with the test results, flipping through them as he walked. The people inside followed him out except for the attendant.
The folks waiting in the living room stood up when they saw Director Huo emerge from the inner chamber: "Director Huo, what's the diagnosis Have you reached a conclusion"
Putting down the test results, Director Huo thought for a moment and said, "Judging by the lab findings, the patient has acute gastroenteritis. This would have led to a significant decrease in beneficial gut bacteria while transient bacteria proliferate. It's clear that the balance of bacteria in his intestines is severely disrupted. This high fever is likely due to intestinal flora imbalance caused by gastroenteritis."
The two doctors beside him nodded their heads, looking impressed. The man in his thirties next to them was even more pleased with Director Huo's explanation: "I knew it! With Director Huo on the case, there’s no disease he can’t handle."
"That guy is Chen Jinghai, and I think the doctor over there must be someone he brought in. How about Xiao Xiao Are you confident" Fang Qiao whispered to Xiao Yu.
“Mr. Fang, rest assured,” replied Xiao Yu.
"Hmm," Fangyuan slowly relaxed after looking at Xiao Yu, who had returned from the central southern province. Ever since then, Xiao Yu seemed to have fused with Zhong Kui's memories and now exuded a scholarly elegance. When he spoke, there was an inexplicable aura that made people believe him easily. If scholars dedicated their entire lives to studying could see this, they would be greatly surprised. The righteous aura on Xiao Yu’s person—known as the Great Righteousness Aura—was something usually seen only in true Confucian scholars.
In fact, Western medicine can be difficult or not so difficult. Its difficulty lies mainly in diagnosis; two doctors might come to different conclusions based on the same test results. However, once a diagnosis is made, there is typically a set standard treatment protocol that doesn't vary much among different doctors. Therefore, the key issue with Western medicine is accurate diagnosis, after which treatments generally follow the same pattern.
Moreover, the efficacy of Western medicine is closely tied to pharmaceutical quality. For the same illness and medication in two different hospitals, why can some be cured while others cannot This depends on the hospital's drug quality. Drugs produced by different manufacturers with the same ingredients vary greatly in quality, which also affects their price—explaining why larger hospitals tend to have more expensive medicine.
"What medications did you give the patient" Director Hu turned and asked the two doctors.
“Cefalexin, antibiotic enhancers, antipyretics…” One of the doctors replied.
Director Hu thought for a moment before saying: "Remove all these! Use Celestamine and Xiyinhai in combination, along with an antipyretic. Let’s try this first. I think it should be fine."
Hearing Director Hu say that things would likely be okay, everyone including 'Teacher Bai' and 'Teacher Mao' sighed with relief. If the situation didn’t improve, they had planned to return to Beijing.ise."Eh..." Hearing Xiao Yu's thunderous shout, these screaming female celebrities immediately stopped and hid in a corner with frightened looks, trembling as they watched Xiao Yu.Xiao Yu ignored thes...
