Chapter 2 The Accident

When Chen Xiao woke up the next day, Li Ziqing was long gone.

Clanging sounds came from the kitchen; Liu Zhen was preparing breakfast.

Chen Xiao was shocked when he went over to take a look.

Stir-fried kidney, chives with oysters, cashew chicken…

"Mom, what kind of dishes are you making so early in the morning?"

Chen Xiao was dumbfounded.

Liu Zhen chuckled and said, "To nourish you!"

"Nourish me?"

Chen Xiao felt baffled.

His mother immediately winked at him and whispered, "You think Mom didn't see you, you little rascal? The way you two were hugging, so tight!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, young people nowadays are not like they used to be!"

Chen Xiao: "..."

This was a deep misunderstanding, but unfortunately, Chen Xiao couldn't explain it.

In a rather strange atmosphere, Chen Xiao hastily ate a few mouthfuls of breakfast and hurried off to work.

Li Ziqing also returned to the hospital with him.

After all, someone wanted to assassinate her.

The closer she was to Chen Xiao, the more secure her life would be.

Watching the young couple leave the house one after the other, Liu Zhen was overjoyed.

At this rate, she would be able to hold her grandson in no time!

She would go to the market later and buy a couple of lamb kidneys.

She heard that stuff was really nourishing!

Arriving at the hospital, Chen Xiao first sent Li Ziqing back to her ward.

Then he went to report to Song Anran to see what was happening today.

After all, he was still nominally Song Anran's assistant.

Song Anran was not in the office. He asked and learned that she had gone to the laboratory early in the morning.

"I didn't expect this woman to be such a workaholic."

Chen Xiao shook his head. Now he was a little idle.

Feeling bored, Chen Xiao decided to wander around the outpatient clinic where he had previously interned.

He wanted to see if there was anything he could help with.

It was a stroke of luck. Not long after he arrived at the clinic,

a chubby doctor waved at Chen Xiao, "Hey, you, come over here."

Chen Xiao walked over, "Are you looking for me?"

The chubby doctor clutched his stomach, looking embarrassed.

"Are you the new intern? Cover for me for a while!"

Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't respond, he rubbed his stomach again and whispered, "Upset stomach from breakfast, urgent."

Chen Xiao smiled, "Go ahead, I'll watch for a while."

Soon, Chen Xiao welcomed his first patient as a formal doctor.

It was an elderly woman in her sixties with gastroenteritis.

It was nothing serious; an anti-inflammatory drip would do the trick.

However, there was a small interlude when the nurse came to give the injection.

The nurse who gave the old lady the injection was an old acquaintance from Chen Xiao's internship.

Her name was Liu Xiaodie, young and quite pretty.

"Hey? Aren't you Chen Xiao!"

Liu Xiaodie was very enthusiastic when she saw Chen Xiao.

"I heard you got promoted and are Director Song's special assistant. You're really amazing!"

When Chen Xiao was an intern, he never had such treatment.

It was good enough if the nurses didn't give him a nasty look.

Enthusiasm? Don't even think about it!

Chen Xiao said faintly, "It's not as exaggerated as you say."

"Don't pretend. The whole hospital knows how great you are!"

Liu Xiaodie curled her lips, then asked with a gossipy expression,

"I heard that even Dean Hao is very fond of you? Is that true?"

Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly, "Well, Dean Hao didn't tell me personally."

"Tch~"

Liu Xiaodie rolled her eyes at Chen Xiao.

"Are you free tonight? There's a new movie out that's supposed to be good. Want to go see it together?"

This was reality!

When Chen Xiao was an intern, which young nurse would bother with him?

Now that he was a formal doctor and a favorite of the dean,

this young and beautiful nurse was also eager to invite him to see a movie.

Chen Xiao naturally didn't agree, brushing it off with a random excuse.

At this time, the chubby doctor also returned.

Chen Xiao went back to his office to avoid meeting old acquaintances like Liu Xiaodie's 'enthusiasm' again.

Back in the office, Chen Xiao felt that he had nothing to do anyway, so he began to cultivate.

He hadn't been in the zone for long when, with a bang,

the office door was knocked open.

The chubby doctor with diarrhea rushed in, his face full of panic and anger.

"Chen Xiao, you've caused a disaster!"

Chen Xiao frowned, "What's wrong?"

The chubby doctor said, "What medicine did you prescribe for that old lady just now? She's dead!"

Chen Xiao stood up abruptly, his face full of surprise.

"That's impossible! I only prescribed ordinary anti-inflammatory drugs, which are not dangerous at all!"

The chubby doctor said, "What impossible? The old lady had a sudden cardiac arrest. Go see for yourself if you don't believe me!"

"I only left for a little while, and you've already caused such a big thing. What can I say about you!"

Amid the chubby doctor's nagging, Chen Xiao rushed out and hurried to the ward.

In the ward, a burly man was smashing everything he could see.

"Garbage hospital! You killed my mother!"

"My mother was fine when she came, just a little diarrhea!"

"It's only been half an hour, and she's gone. If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll tear down the hospital!"

The ward door was crowded with people, and everyone was talking about it, making the hospital the target of public criticism.

Slander can melt metal.

This incident had a very bad impact on the hospital.

Liu Xiaodie said in a panic, refuting,

"Don't slander us. The medicine I gave the old lady was just the most common anti-inflammatory drug."

"It's not dangerous at all. Your mother was definitely not killed by us!"

As soon as Liu Xiaodie finished speaking, the big man slapped her in the face.

With a slap, the little girl's face was swollen.

The big man cursed,

"You little bitch, still trying to argue with me? If it wasn't for you, how do you explain my mother's death?"

Liu Xiaodie cried and shouted, "Why are you hitting people? Are you being reasonable?"

"Hitting people? I'm not just hitting people today; I'm going to kill people too!"

The big man looked ferocious and grabbed Liu Xiaodie by the neck!

Liu Xiaodie's face was flushed red, and she looked like she was about to die.

Just then, a black shadow swooshed over!

With a bang!

The big man flew out, smashing a hospital bed to pieces.

The big man took a closer look, recognized Chen Xiao, and became even more angry.

"It's you, it's you, you useless doctor, you killed my mother!"

The big man got up and rushed towards Chen Xiao again.

Chen Xiao didn't even lift his eyelids and kicked the big man away, heading straight for the old lady's body.

"Before things are clear, you better stay put!"

"I, Chen Xiao, am not a pushover!"

Chen Xiao's words were domineering.

He came to the bedside and carefully observed the old lady's condition.

As the chubby doctor said, the old lady had a sudden cardiac arrest and was no longer breathing.

Just then, a sinister voice came from the ward door.

"This kid is Chen Xiao? Greenhorn, unreliable!"

"Our hospital has been ruined by this waste!"
