Chapter 12 Compassionate Doctor
While the middle-aged woman is still hesitating, Li Yong tries to explain to her that Zhang Yurong is an experienced doctor with excellent medical skills graduated from a famous university. And he, as a fresh graduate, is working as an intern here, so he will help take care of the patients first. If he cannot handle the case, then it will be passed to Zhang Yurong.
The middle-aged woman is still doubtful and yet sits before Li Yong. Li Yong doesn’t let the woman talk first but tells her what is bothering her and the cause behind, which leaves her dumbed with astonishment.
She didn’t believe in his capability before but now she is completely convinced.
The woman keeps nodding about what Li Yong says. Then he writes a prescription and passes it to her, saying with a smile, “Madam, please take it to my master. If there is anything inappropriate, she will correct it.”
The middle-aged woman does as he says, but Zhang Yurong doesn’t understand the prescription at all. Yet, she still pretends that she is checking carefully, saying, “Good. Very nice. That’s it.”
The middle-aged woman brings the prescription to Li Yong again, says delightedly, “Young man, help me fetch the medicine please. As long as you heal me, I will send you a flag.”
Then another several patients come to see a doctor in the same procedure. All of them change their attitude from not believing at all to completely convinced, for Li Yong can tell their symptoms with only a glance, which is better than the large examining machine in big hospitals.
Zhang Yurong asks him curiously, “Xiaoyong, where do you learn your medical skills? Your major is western medicine but how do you end up being a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine?”
“I learn it by myself.” It is an excuse that Li Yong has conjured before.
“Pfffft, stop playing me around. Even those who spend the whole life learning traditional Chinese medicine can never be as good as you. Moreover, you can diagnose the patients with only one glance, which is already beyond the medical reach.” Zhang Yurong has a lot of questions. Every time she asks Li Yong, he doesn’t answer her seriously, making Li Yong appear increasingly mysterious to her.
“I really teach myself.” Li Yong giggles and says.
“Then take a look at me. Is there anything wrong with me?” Zhang Yurong says softly with her lips pursed, looking mile and sweet.
“Now am I allowed to look at you?” Li Yong replies with a cheeky grin.
“I’m asking you to look at me for health checking.” Zhang Yurong blushes instantly. She cannot stand such look from Li Yong.
“Sure. Let me check your health.” Saying so, Li Yong places his eyes on the beautiful body of Zhang Yurong, except that he doesn’t use his clairvoyant vision or look at her private parts. He is merely checking her looks in an appreciative way.
They look at each other but gradually, Zhang Yurong gives in and looks down to her feet. After a while, Li Yong is still looking at her so she cannot help asking, “Are you done?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No.” Li Yong says.
“You only need one glance to diagnose others, but why does it take so long to check me?” Zhang Yurong gripes.
“Because you are good-looking.” Li Yong says grinning.
Zhang Yurong feels very delighted and proud. She knows she is good-looking and that’s the reason why her ex-husband didn’t want her to work. She grows up in the other people’s complement, so she already doesn’t feel a thing about such comments. However, hearing Li Yong say so, she feels flipped.
At the time another person comes in to buy medicine. Then Li Yong withdraws his eyes and goes handle it.
It is not until the customer leaves that Zhang Yurong hastens to ask, “Xiaoyong, is anything wrong with me?”
“Yes.” Li Yong says seriously.
“Ah? What’s wrong with me?” Hearing that, Zhang Yurong gets frightened and nervous.
“Loneliness and boredom. Nevertheless, as you walk out of your house to work for me, it will get better gradually. No need to get injection or take drips. It is costless.” Li Yong says smilingly.
“You naughty badass, how dare you fool me?” Zhang Yurong thinks it through and hits him with a fist.
Some words are mean when used. However, when you put “naughty” before them, it can be mean otherwise. Just like “naughty badass,” it becomes a lovely word as far as Li Yong is concerned.
At dusk, Li Yong asks Zhang Yurong to clock off in advance and sets the working time for her, that is, from 8 am to 5 pm.
He stays at the clinic until 10 pm himself and then goes back to his apartment. Though someone makes trouble for him, since the two bullies were taken away by the cops, there are patients coming to the Happy Clinic continuously.
Li Yong checks the income for the day and finds it not bad. At least, he has recouped the rent, electricity and water cost and living expense. As the clinic runs on and on, he will get more popular and earns more money.
In the next day, Li Yong arrives at the clinic early and opens the business.
Yet, it is not until 8:15 am that Zhang Yurong comes late on her electromobile.
“Xiaoyong, I’m late. Please don’t get angry, or you can deduct my salary.” Reaching the clinic, Zhang Yurong apologizes to Li Yong.
Of course Li Yong is not angry. Asking Zhang to work here is only a cover-up at the beginning. After he is acknowledged and approved by the patients, he will not need Zhang Yurong to disguise anymore. She can clock on whenever she wants. Even if she doesn’t come to work, Li Yong will pay her salary anyway.
“It’s okay. I don’t deduct salary from employees.” Li Yong says while reading a book.
“I knew you were the best. Look, here is the breakfast made by me. You must not have eaten breakfast.” Saying that, Zhang Yurong places a bento box in front of Li Yong.
Li Yong doesn’t expect Zhang Yurong to be so considerate. Smelling the flavor of the pancake, he feels rather hungry.
Seeing Li Yong swobble the food, Zhang Yurong asks happily, “Xiaoyong, is it delicious?”
“Yes, it tastes so good.” Li Yong is full of praise.
“If you like it, I can always cook it for you. I know you are always having fast food every day, it is not good for your health. How do you know what kind of oil they use? How do you know whether they have handled the materials properly? So, it is better to eat what I cook for you. Isn’t it?” Zhang Yurong says with a smile.
Li Yong is in great delight. It is unexpected that Zhang Yurong is willing to cook for him. He replies immediately, “Yes, sure. Okay, let me increase your salary then.”
“No need to do that. 5,000 is already enough for me.” Zhang Yurong is quite contented.
Li Yong doesn’t insist. Since she doesn’t want a salary increase, he can give her more bonuses instead.
It happens that there is a kitchen upstairs with adequate cooking utensils. Zhang Yurong goes inside to do some cleaning and then head to the market for groceries. By noon, Li Yong is able to eat the tasty cuisine made by her.
Believe it or not, Zhang Yurong is quite good at cooking. She learned it from the TV show when she stayed at home. Now, it benefits Li Yong.
In the afternoon, Li Yong feels that there is something wrong. 3 hours have passed but no one came. It is not that Li Yong hopes people to get sick but the situation is unusual compared with this morning.
He goes out of the clinic and checks around only to find the two bullies taken away by the cops standing at the roadside again and stopping passers-by from walking into the clinic.
They are apparently hindering my business. They are determined to make trouble!
Li Yong flies into a rage instantly. This time he doesn’t take recording or call the police. Instead, he runs towards them and knocks them down easily.
The two bullies are stubborn and reluctant to acknowledge who they are at the beginning, but after slapped by Li Yong several times, they give in eventually. Learning that they are from Tianhu Gang, Li Yong lets go of them then.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Xiaoyong, now that you beat the Tianhu Gang members, they must come to you soon.” Hearing the noise outside, Zhang Yurong runs out of the clinic and knows Li Yong better when she learns about the violent side of Li Yong with her own eyes. It turns out that Li Yong looks more handsome while he is in a fight.
However, knowing the two bullies are from Tianhu Gang, Zhang Yurong turns worried immediately. As a local, unlike Li Yong, she knows much better about Tianhu Gang than Li Yong.
“Chap, now that you beat people from Tianhu Gang, be careful while walking outside at night.” One of the passers-by reminds him.
“Bravo, man.” Some of them admire him very much.
Li Yong doesn’t care about that, taking Zhang Yurong back to the clinic.
Since they dare make trouble for him, he doesn’t mind making some for them as well.
“Ms. Zhang, don’t worry. Tianhu Gang is nothing to me.” Li Yong says aggressively.
Zhang Yurong is held in awe and feels that there must be a lot of secrets behind Li Yong. She can tell a masculine temperament from Li Yong, which makes her like him even more.
“Xiaoyong, we’d better watch out. We may as well get off work early today. I can cook you some more delicious food when we go back. I also have nice wine at home and we can have a drink.” Zhang Yurong proposes.
“Ms. Zhang, no need for that. Since I open this clinic, I will put career first. I have to make money for getting married.” Li Yong says grinning.
“Okay, I will stay with you then.” Zhang Yurong decides to stay.
Since he beats the two bullies away, the clinic’s situation gets better.
At 9 pm, Li Yong checks the whole’s income and is about to close the business. Right then, Hu rushes towards the clinic with a woman in his arms.
“Yong, could you please save my girl? She went to Wang Hui’s Clinic several days ago and yet it gets worse and worse. You said you could cure her, didn’t you? If you can have her cured, I will pay you back.” Hu says it humbling and is close to kneeling down before Li Yong.
In the view of Li Yong, the woman should have turned to him for help long before. He didn’t expect she would come so late.
As a compassionate doctor, Li Yong doesn’t resent her though he conflicts with this woman. He notices that she is seriously ill, so he leads Hu inside hastily.
“Let me take a look. I’ll try my best.” Li Yong lets Hu put the unconscious woman on the bed.
At the moment, the woman wakes up suddenly. She glances at Li Yong and then gazed at Hu angrily, yelling, “Take me out of here. I don’t want this doctor. Even the doctors of famous hospitals cannot do anything about my disease, then how can he help me?”
Li Yong smiles and says, “Believe it or not, I can fix you actually.”
