The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 737 What Makes You Think You Can?
Wu Fei'er agreed.
Chen Xiao also stopped, intending to wait for Wu Fei'er.
Just then, he noticed that Chu Luo's clinic was right next door, so he went straight in to see what the kid was doing.
At this moment, Chu Luo was performing acupuncture on a porcelain doll-like little boy, completely focused, and didn't even notice Chen Xiao coming in.
Actually, it's not surprising that he was so engrossed, because the acupuncture technique he was using at this time was called Guimen Shisan Zhen (Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles), a kind of acupuncture that could defy the heavens and change fate.
Chen Xiao then noticed that the little patient's condition was very serious. If this mysterious acupuncture technique wasn't used, his life might not last long.
Chu Luo was fully focused, using all his strength to perform the Guimen Shisan Zhen, but this was not an easy task for him.
The air conditioning in the clinic was turned up high, but Chu Luo's back was still soaked with sweat.
But the result was good. Under Chu Luo's full treatment, the little patient's body was rejuvenated, and it seemed that he had passed the most difficult stage.
Chen Xiao nodded slightly. Chu Luo's medical skills were trustworthy.
Although he couldn't compare to him, he was already considered a genius among normal doctors.
However, what Chen Xiao found a little strange was that there were only Chu Luo and the little patient in the clinic. The little patient's family members were not there, and there was no one in the corridor outside.
Could it be that the little patient came to see the doctor by himself?
But this little patient looked only four or five years old, so he couldn't possibly come to see the doctor alone.
Just as Chen Xiao was wondering, Chu Luo had finished the acupuncture, and the little patient fell into a deep sleep.
Chu Luo breathed a sigh of relief, and just as he was about to take a break, he looked up and saw Chen Xiao at a glance. He was immediately overjoyed and exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Director Chen, when did you come? I was so engrossed just now that I didn't even notice!"
"Haha, I just came in too. I saw that you were so focused on performing acupuncture, so I didn't disturb you."
Chen Xiao replied with a smile.
"It's a good thing it was you who came. If someone else had come in and disturbed my acupuncture, the consequences would have been unimaginable… I should have locked the door just now."
Chu Luo suddenly showed a look of fear on his face.
Catching this subtle change in expression, Chen Xiao couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong? Is someone stopping you from performing acupuncture and saving people? And, this little patient is so seriously ill, where are his family members?"
"Director Chen, it's a long story. Let me explain it to you slowly…"
Chu Luo wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to explain the ins and outs of the matter to Chen Xiao.
However, at this moment, with a bang, the door of the clinic was rudely kicked open.
"Chu Luo, who told you to be so meddlesome? Quickly send the patient back to me!"
Before the person arrived, the voice came first, and a sharp voice sounded after the door opened.
Then, a middle-aged man with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks and a Mediterranean hairstyle walked in, cursing.
The middle-aged man looked at Chen Xiao suspiciously. "Who are you?"
Then, without waiting for an answer, he waved his hand and said to himself, "Forget it, it doesn't matter. Chu Luo, I order you to send the patient back to his original ward immediately!"
Chen Xiao then understood that this little patient was not Chu Luo's patient, but he had secretly taken him out?
"Just send him back, what are you yelling about?"
Chu Luo retorted impatiently.
"How dare you talk to me like that? Don't forget, I'm your immediate boss!"
The Mediterranean man said fiercely, then he thought of something, "Wait, you stubborn donkey agreed to send the patient back?"
Immediate boss? This must be the new director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the dean's man.
Chen Xiao thought to himself.
"The patient's illness has been cured by me, of course I can send him back. Director Lu, please."
Chu Luo said lightly.
His meaning was also obvious, you want to send the patient back to the ward, then you can send him yourself!
"Bastard, who told you to treat the patient? This child is not a patient in our Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Why are you treating him?"
Director Lu said with gritted teeth, and two pieces of fat on his pointed mouth and monkey cheeks bulged out.
"Why? That's a really good question you asked."
Chu Luo sneered coldly, "Because I'm a doctor, because this is a hospital, because a doctor's duty is to heal the wounded and rescue the dying, Director Lu, is that enough?"
Director Lu was choked by Chu Luo and couldn't speak, after all, he was the one in the wrong in the first place, but he gritted his teeth so hard that the fat on his cheeks bulged out even more.
"The patient's condition is so serious, what if something goes wrong? What if it affects the reputation of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine? Can you take responsibility?"
In the end, Director Lu only came up with this 'what excuse is needed' kind of dirty water to splash on Chu Luo.
"Hehe…"
Chu Luo sneered twice, "You still know that the patient's condition is serious? Knowing it's serious, you still don't treat the child, do you want to just watch the patient die? Also, don't even mention the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine to me, you're just an amateur who can't even recite Tangtou Ge (Formulas and Songs). Does the reputation of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine have anything to do with you? Did you earn even a tiny bit of it?"
"Outrageous! Outrageous!"
Director Lu was so angry that smoke was coming out of his head. "It has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with you? Chu Luo, let me tell you, don't be ungrateful. Aren't you just relying on that Director Chen to support you? He has already been kicked out. I only need one sentence to kick you out too! How dare you yell at me here, what do you think you are?"
"Kicking Chu Luo out won't have any impact on Chu Luo, but the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Jiangcheng Hospital can't afford such a loss."
Chen Xiao said lightly.
It was true that he built the framework of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, but he hadn't stayed in the hospital much afterwards.
The Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine has its reputation today entirely because of Chu Luo, so in Chen Xiao's opinion, if he leaves the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, then no one is more suitable for the position of director of the department than Chu Luo.
"What are you? Do you have a say here?"
Director Lu only remembered his existence after Chen Xiao said a word out of the blue, otherwise Director Lu would have forgotten about this person.
And he still doesn't know who this person is.
"You surnamed Lu, show some respect when you speak. Do you know who he is?"
Chu Luo suddenly shouted sternly. This surnamed Lu dared to speak disrespectfully to Brother Chen, he was simply courting death!
"I don't care who he is? All I know is that this is Jiangcheng Hospital, and here, no one is bigger than Dean Shen Hui!"
Director Lu said arrogantly. He folded his arms and squinted at Chen Xiao, "Kid, tell me, who are you?"
"Hehe."
Chen Xiao smiled lightly, "I'm the Director Chen, I'm Chu Luo's backer!"
