Chapter 483: Are You Talking About Lian Xiaoliu
“Chief Zheng, I’m sorry.” Chief Xia had an apologetic look on her face. She knew that this situation was messy, and she was indeed embarrassed to have to find Zheng Ren to help settle it.
“It’s fine.” Zheng Ren smiled. “However, I might not be able to solve the problem.”
“I know.”
As they spoke, the two of them fell silent at the same time.
The sad thing was that this was not happening to a patient who was incurably ill.
Life and death were determined by fate, while wealth and honor were determined by the Heavens. People had seen too many life and death situations, so they did not think too much about literature and art.
The saddest thing was that this was the kind of patient who could obviously be treated but could not afford to do so.
Zheng Ren and Chief Xia both knew that the patient was most likely to be automatically discharged from the hospital and go home to wait for death.
This made people’s hearts ache.
“I’ll go take a look first.” Zheng Ren knew that it would not solve the problem even if he just stared into Chief Xia’s eyes here. It was better to see what was going on first. If it really could not be settled, he would inform Chief Xia and leave.
Chief Xia also knew the twists and turns involved regardless of whether he would help or not. Zheng Ren was already being a great help by coming and leaving without giving it a second thought.
The two of them left the Chief’s office and entered the doctor’s office.
Zheng Ren only heard the voices before but had not actually seen anyone yet. When he walked in, he saw a man with a fierce face. He was half-sitting and half-lying on a chair in such a ruffian manner. A golden chain as thick as a finger hung around his neck, resting on top of his shirt. It was flashy and attention-seeking.
Zheng Ren really wanted to know if he would float when he took a bath with the gold chain.
“This is Chief Zheng from the emergency ward. You can ask him about anything,” Chief Xia said while pointing at Zheng Ren, feeling a little embarrassed.
“Chief Zheng? He’s so young but is also a chief? Seems like ‘chief’ is just a useless title given to anyone nowadays.” The man with the huge gold chain insulted Zheng Ren while staring at him.
Sigh, people were really different from each other.
Zheng Ren was a little absent-minded. This kind of Ge you paralysis, Su Yun looked very good when she was paralyzed. When this big golden chain was paralyzed, it was like a high-ranking paraplegic.
It was the same with slander.
Seeing that Zheng Ren did not say anything, the man with the gold chain was feeling a little haughty. He thought that it was his imposing presence that had silenced the other party.
“I’ve consulted an expert about this disease. It seems like there’s no cure here in Sea City! Don’t try to fool me with your bullsh*t. Do you even know how to treat patients? You only know how to make people spend money! Three to five thousand dollars will be gone in one night. If you delay my old lady’s treatment, I’ll kill you later!”
“Arguing here won’t solve the problem, alright? Why don’t we go and see the patient first?” Zheng Ren suggested.
“Hey, have you grown some balls? How dare you talk to me like that! There are only a few people in Sea City who dare to talk to me like that. Do you think you’re Master Liu?”
“Master Liu?” Zheng Ren was stunned. “Do you mean Lian Xiaoliu?”
The man coughed and spat on the floor of the office. The muscles on his face seemed to twitch as he emitted a fierce aura.
“You dare to even say Master Liu’s name in such a manner?” The man was extremely fierce and oppressive.
Chief Xia was shocked. It was the most annoying thing to deal with these types of people in society.
Each and every one of them was rude. It was as if Sea City General Hospital was owned by his family. Furthermore, their clothes were not cheap. However, once they were asked to pay up, not only would they refuse, they would often start all kinds of arguments.
They had free time on their hands so they had time to argue. However, what doctor would have time to argue back with them?
“What’s your surname?” Zheng Ren’s expression was a little strange. He seemed to ask this question in a polite manner.
The man was even more pleased. “I’m Li San from the Jianhua Factory. Who doesn’t know me?”
Zheng Ren took out his phone and found a number to call.
“Brother Liu, there’s... It’s a little troublesome here. A patient’s family member is causing trouble here.
“There’s no need for you to come. It’s a small matter.
“Oh, okay then. He said he’s Li... Li San from the Jianhua Factory, am I right?” Zheng Ren looked at the man wearing the gold chain and asked.
He was stunned for a moment and nodded absentmindedly.
“Yes, Li San from the Jianhua Factory,” Zheng Ren said.
“You don’t know him either. Okay then.”
Zheng Ren immediately hung up the call.
“Mr. Li, Lian Xiaoliu said he doesn’t know you,” Zheng Ren said in a very serious manner. “The hospital is not a place to talk about money. Let’s go see the patient first before working out a treatment plan that can save money and also treat the disease. What do you think?”
The man was stunned.
How did the infamous Master Liu become Lian Xiaoliu in the mouth of this young doctor?
He did not seem to have any respect when he was talking to him.
This was most probably an act!
The man immediately felt that he had discovered the truth. However... He was not too sure.
At that moment, his arrogance disappeared without a trace. He frowned and decided to be cautious for the time being. He did not want to risk offending this person.
What if he really knew him...
He stood up and carefully tidied up his black sable coat. He carried his bag and walked out of the office horizontally. (Note 1)
Zheng Ren shook his head. Just as he was about to follow him out, Chief Xia grabbed Zheng Ren and asked in a low voice, “Chief Zheng, do you know Lian Xiaoliu?”
“He’s alright. We don’t have a close relationship. He owns a skewer place.”
Chief Xia was stunned for a moment.
If they could eat together, what kind of relationship did they have?
After that, Chief Xia brought the attending doctor and Zheng Ren to the resuscitation room. The bed doctor held a medical record holder in his hand and stood at the end of the bed. He began to report his medical history, as well as the treatment done for the entire night and the test this morning.
The patient had recovered pretty well. However, she felt a little uncomfortable with the gastric tube. With the water fasting, the old lady felt very hungry and could not stand it.
Additionally, the pain of severe pancreatitis had been alleviated. There was tenderness in the abdomen, rebound pain, and muscle tension.
The treatment was very effective and did not cost much. Zheng Ren really did not know what the man had been going on about earlier.
Zheng Ren comforted the patient with a pleasant look and told her that the stomach tube and water fasting could not be done without for the time being. They had to pass the test before it could be removed.
However, the treatment seemed quite effective now. Zheng Ren emphasized this point to reassure her.
The patient was very happy. However, when he looked at the man wearing the gold chain, his eyes there was a slightly fearful look in them as they flickered.
When he left the ward, the man followed him.
He had a bag under his arm and was walking unsteadily. The gastroenterology department’s corridor was full of extra beds. It was a tight squeeze for him.
After taking a few steps, a few people appeared at the door. They saw them enter the office from afar.
The expression on the man’s face changed.
“I’m going back to take care of my mother. I’m telling you, I’m delaying the treatment...”
While he spoke, a few people came out of the office and saw Zheng Ren from afar.
They walked quickly through the crowd in the corridor. The person in front bowed deeply to Zheng Ren first. “Hello, Chief Zheng.”
Zheng Ren was shocked. His brain was working fast, trying to find out who this person was from his memory.
“Master Liu asked me to come. He said that Li San was causing trouble.” That person then stood up straight and glared at the confused Li San behind Zheng Ren. He berated him, “Li San, you’ve finally appeared!”
“This is a hospital so please lower your voice,” Zheng Ren said with a frown.
