The clinic's reputation had spread a little after Han Minglang joined, and naturally, more people came for treatment. Word of mouth, like ripples in water, spread the news. Initially, it was said that the Jisheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall had the recommendation of imperial physicians, and even the mayor had personally sought treatment. By the time it reached the ears of leaders from various countries seeking medical help, it had truly become a case of exaggeration.
Of course, with the influx of patients, many praised the clinic's services. Regardless of recovery, the consultation fees were extremely low.
After seeing the last patient, Li Se stretched his back. He treated as many patients as came, as the clinic had just opened and needed to build its reputation.
"You've worked hard," Huang Shanshan said, walking over with a smile.
This place was different from Qingyun City. The Jisheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall in Qingyun City had many experienced old physicians, but here, it was just the two of them and a security guard, Xu Qiang. Huang Shanshan truly felt like they were running a mom-and-pop shop.
Although Li Se had many women, only she could sit in for consultations with him like this, which made her feel a small sense of pride.
After the clinic closed, Xu Qiang stayed at the clinic. Li Se planned to take Huang Shanshan to look for a house. It was still evening, and some real estate sales offices were still open.
With Li Se's current wealth, buying a villa in Beijing was not a problem. Speaking of villas, he owned one in Qingyun City, but he had hardly lived in it. Moreover, he had many women now, and when they came to Beijing, they would surely live together, so buying a villa was the better option.
There were many villa districts in Beijing, and any one of them cost tens of millions, even hundreds of millions. This showed how frighteningly expensive Beijing's housing prices were.
Soon, they arrived at a villa district called Donghu. As soon as they entered, they saw a middle-aged man lying on the ground, convulsing uncontrollably.
"Mr. Fang!"
"Quick, call an ambulance!"
Many staff members at the Donghu Villa District's sales office were in a panic.
"Is there a doctor?" the secretary shouted.
"I'm here!" A very refined-looking man walked out, flashing his identification. "I am now an attending physician at Renhe Hospital, Gu Yun. Leave it to me, there will be absolutely no problem."
The secretary nodded repeatedly and quickly made way for Gu Yun.
"No!" Li Se exclaimed, stopping Gu Yun as he was about to give Mr. Fang some medication.
"What are you doing?" Gu Yun frowned, annoyed that someone dared to stop him.
"His condition should be..." Li Se was about to explain.
Gu Yun interrupted him, saying unhappily, "I am the doctor, not you? What illness he has, do I need you to tell me? It's ridiculous. What kind of person are you, daring to interfere with my treatment? If anything happens to Mr. Fang, can you bear the responsibility?"
"Please conduct yourself properly!" the secretary said, frowning. She was naturally displeased by Li Se's sudden intervention.
Li Se said with a cold expression, "If I'm not mistaken, the medicine you're about to give him is an antipsychotic. But this kind of medicine is useless for him."
Gu Yun was taken aback. He hadn't expected this young man to know what medicine he intended to give Mr. Fang. But he quickly understood. The medicine was in his hand, and the name of the drug was visible, so he didn't find it strange anymore. He snorted and said, "I treat illnesses; I don't need you to teach me. If the best treatment time is delayed, will you take responsibility?"
"Sir, could you please stop disturbing Mr. Gu's treatment?" The secretary's voice also turned cold. If Mr. Fang's best treatment time were truly delayed, she could not bear the responsibility.
"Kid, if you dare to speak again, believe it or not, I'll beat you up?"
"Please step aside!"
Two bodyguards stepped forward, both with fierce expressions.
Li Se frowned. Since they didn't believe him, there was nothing he could do. However, he didn't walk away, because he knew Gu Yun's medicine would be ineffective.
"What kind of nonsense!" Gu Yun snorted and then administered the medicine to Mr. Fang. After the medicine went down, Gu Yun quickly recovered.
"Is this my old ailment acting up again?" Mr. Fang rubbed his head.
"Mr. Fang, it was Dr. Gu who saved you," the secretary quickly said.
"Dr. Gu, I will thank you properly..." Mr. Fang was about to express his gratitude when his body suddenly began to convulse again. His face looked even more pained than before, and his breathing became difficult.
"Dr. Gu, what's happening to Mr. Fang?" the secretary asked anxiously.
"I... I don't know either." Gu Yun was dumbfounded. How could he know what was happening? In his opinion, after taking the medicine, Mr. Fang should have been fine. How could his condition worsen?
"That's because Mr. Fang's illness is impervious to medicine. No matter what medicine he takes, it will lead to this situation. He doesn't have long to live!" Huang Shanshan said calmly. After all, she had followed Li Se for a long time and had been studying medicine diligently during this period. Her medical skills were much improved from before.
"You're talking nonsense!" Gu Yun naturally couldn't admit that his medicine had caused this. "My medicine is fine; it must be Mr. Fang's own problem..."
"Gu Yun, if anything happens to Mr. Fang, I won't let you off!" the secretary said coldly.
"Didn't he say he could do it? Then let him try!" Gu Yun just wanted to shift the blame to Li Se as quickly as possible.
Li Se was certainly not someone who shied away from responsibility. He walked past the bodyguards, and this time, they didn't try to stop him. He took out his silver needles and began to acupuncture Mr. Fang.
"See? You all see? He's actually performing acupuncture. If anything happens later, it has nothing to do with me; it's his problem!" Gu Yun quickly said.
Many people who heard this couldn't help but cast disdainful glances.
"What's wrong with doctors nowadays? It's clearly because of his medicine that this happened, and now that someone else is treating him, he's pushing the blame away. Does such a person deserve to be a doctor?"
"This kind of person probably receives the most red envelopes."
"He's a rotten apple!"
"This young man, even if he can't cure it, at least he's not afraid to take responsibility. Look at this person, an attending physician at that, what a disgrace!"
"..."
Many mocking voices arose.
But Gu Yun didn't care about any of this. He quickly moved away from Mr. Fang, pointed at Li Se, and retorted, "Kid, you dare to perform acupuncture on Mr. Fang, how audacious! Acupuncture can be fatal. If anything happens to Mr. Fang later, you will bear full responsibility!"
