After looking at his wife, who looked normal again, the husband said, "Thanks, Doctor Qin. Thank you for saving my wife's life."
"You're welcome. It's what a doctor should do," Qin Haodong said.
"Doctor Qin, there is one thing I don’t understand. I was having a stomachache, but why did I have a heart attack?" the woman asked.
What she asked confused Ma Guoqiang as well. He was wondering how this woman had a heart attack with the symptom of a stomachache.
Qin Haodong answered, "Our hearts are connected with our small intestines. Isn't this simple knowledge that every doctor should know?"
"You're great, Doctor Qin. So young and so skilled!" The husband turned to look at Ma Guoqiang. "Not like someone else who claimed to be a chief doctor. Bullshit! Let me say it, he is just a quack."
The man and the woman thanked Qin Haodong again before leaving the emergency room together.
When they left, the room was filled with an awkward atmosphere. Having an intern show him up was a slap in the face, and Ma Guoqiang was flushed with embarrassment.
After a moment of silence, he shouted, "Qin Haodong, you just treated a patient as an intern, which is a violation of hospital rules. I'll report this to the director, and you'll be kicked out from our hospital."
"Do you really dare to do that?" Qin Haodong looked at Ma Guoqiang with a smile. "I'm just an intern, and it doesn't matter if I'll have to leave Jiangnan Hospital. I can find another hospital to gain an internship. However, as a chief doctor, you misdiagnosed a heart attack as acute gastroenteritis, nearly causing serious harm to your patient. If our director find out, how long do you think you’ll remain a chief doctor?"
Ma Guoqiang was speechless. If the management of the hospital discovered his misdiagnosis, he would lose his job, and even his teacher, Zhang Tianhe, would not be able to help him.
He’d made the threat on impulse and forced himself to calm down.
Qin Haodong ignored Ma Guoqiang’s hateful glare. He was Emperor Green Wood, and in his eyes, Ma Guoqiang was like an ant. Who would care about the anger of an ant?
Ma Guoqiang’s expression darkened as he pulled up a chair and sat down. In that moment, he decided to find a way to ruin Qin Haodong’s life.
The emergency room fell into dead silence.
A screech of breaks came from outside.
Moments later, five bodyguards in black suits ran through the doors of the emergency room carrying a woman covered in blood.
"Help! Where are the doctors? We need help!"
The lead bodyguard rushed forward as the other four carried the woman behind him.
"What has happened to her?" Ma Guoqiang asked. He could tell these men were not normal people and took them very seriously.
The bodyguard didn’t seem to hear him. "Hurry, save her! If anything bad happens to my boss, you'll all be dead!"
Ma Guoqiang could see “Lin’s Group Security Department” on their name tags and froze with fear. Lin's Group was a leading financial group in Jiangnan City, and the chairman of this group was Lin Zhiyuan, which meant that the wounded woman was likely his daughter. The group was rich, powerful, and would donate many medical devices to Jiangnan Hospital every year.
Ma Guoqiang said to the nearest nurse, "Take her to ICU and get her an examination. I'll call Zhang Tianhe right now."
The hospital was always fast in dealing with patients with special connections. In less than twenty minutes, the examination results were sent to Ma Guoqiang's desk.
Reading it, Ma Guoqiang was shocked. The woman was wounded badly. Both legs were broken, along with five ribs, and one of the broken ribs was stuck into her lungs. It was a miracle that she held on for so long.
"Are her wounds serious?" the head bodyguard asked worriedly.
"Yes, very serious. She needs an operation right now."
"Then, what are you waiting for, doctor? Why don't you start operating?" the bodyguard shouted.
"Start operating? That’s outside of my specialty!" Ma Guoqiang knew very well about his own skills. The woman was wounded so badly that even if Zhang Tianhe himself carried out the operation, he would only have a twenty percent chance of success.
Of course, he couldn’t tell the bodyguard that. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "The patient's wounds are too serious, and it will be a messy operation. The chance of success with our facilities is quite low, and I suggest that you should transfer her to another hospital."
"Transfer to another hospital?" The bodyguard was furious. His is eyes were red as she shouted, "This is the best hospital in the city! Where else can we transfer her to?"
"She may have a better chance in the capital," Ma Guoqiang answered, shivering.
"Capital? Are you a fool? Don't you know how far that is?" The bodyguard thundered. If he wasn’t counting on Ma Guoqiang to save his boss, he would have beaten him on the spot.
Ma Guoqiang replied in a hurry, "Relax. I've notified my teacher, and he is on his way. He’ll know what to do." What a rotten night! It had just been one bad thing after another.
The bodyguard seemed to calm down a little at this, but then the wounded woman began to cough violently and spat out mouthfuls of bloody foam as the monitoring device started making ear-piercing sounds.
Qin Haodong had been watching all this silently, and he frowned. The woman's injuries were very serious, and her breathing was fading. If she wasn’t treated immediately, she would die.
Right then, a woman in a business suit ran in with a small girl in her arms.
The girl was wearing a pretty white dress and looked like a princess from a fairy tale. She carried a pink schoolbag on her back.
The woman shouted at the leading bodyguard, "Zhang Desheng, why hasn't the boss been treated yet? You’ve neglected your duty."
"Miss An, the boss is wounded too badly, and the good-for-nothing doctors here won’t perform an operation. We're waiting for experts to arrive..."
"We can't wait! Waiting will kill her!" An Biru thundered.
Seeing the woman on the bed, the little girl was puzzled for a moment before crying out, "Mommy, wake up! I need your hugs!"
Tang tang had seen many babies on TV who were left alone because their mothers died. Thinking that she might lose her mom, she cried even more sadly. An Biru put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
Staring at the crying girl, Qin Haodong narrowed his eyes. He sensed a familiar bloodline from the girl. This feeling was more accurate than DNA.
"Is... she my daughter?"
Qin Haodong was too excited to speak while looking at Tang tang. "How could this be?” he thought. “How can I have a five-year-old daughter?"
The night before he left the earth, Tang Long was frustrated when trying to make his career in the capital. Upset, he went to a bar to drink wine and met Lin Momo, who was upset as well and got drunk for the first time in her life. They spent a romantic night together.
At midnight, Lin Momo had woken up and left the hotel in a hurry. When Tang Long realized she was gone, he’d tried to find her outside the hotel, but was taken away by Yimu Zhenren.
It had long depressed Tang Long that his first girl was someone he did not know. He never expected that he would find his daughter by chance, from which he finally realized that the wounded woman on the bed was the girl he met in the bar.
Realizing this, he turned his gaze away from his daughter and walked to Lin Momo's bed, taking her pulse with his fingers.
"Qin Haodong, what are you doing?" Ma Guoqiang shouted in horror. "This woman is dying. Do you dare make more trouble for us? Who will take responsibility if anything bad happens? She is the daughter of the Lin family!"
"Doctor Ma, she needs an operation right now, or she will die!" Qin Haodong shouted.
Ma Guoqiang was burning with anger. "You're talking nonsense. I know she badly needs an operation, but who will do it for her? You?"
Qin Haodong continued, "I'll operate on her. Don't disturb me."
It was a matter of life and death of his child's mother, so he wasted no words on Ma Guoqiang and pulled Lin Momo's bed into the operating room.
"Stop!" Ma Guoqiang ran over, trying to stop them. Qin Haodong did not have time to explain further and just pushed him out the room. "Bastard..."
As Ma Guoqiang rose to his feet, he was struck by an idea and paused.
The woman's situation would probably get worse. If she died due to lack of treatment, he would face blame from the director and the Lin family. If she died in Qin Haodong's operation, however, he would not be the one to blame.
Ma Guoqiang shouted, "Qin Haodong, you have to take responsibility for whatever happens..."
Qin Haodong ignored his words and turned back to shut the door of the room.
An Biru was confused by what was happening. She asked, "Who is he? Is he also a doctor of your hospital?"
"His name is Qin Haodong. He is just an intern here," said Ma Guoqiang in embarrassment."What? An intern dares to operate on our president? Open the door now! Tell him to stop!" An Biru shouted."This kind of door is locked from the inside. I am going to find the director now!"Ma Guoqiang ran out of the Emergency Department. Director Wen Changjiang was on duty tonight, so Ma Guoqiang rushed to report it to him in order to completely remove any responsibility."You... If anything happens to our president, I will tear down your hospital... "Seeing Ma Guoqiang's fading figure, An Biru stamped with rage but was unable to do anything else."Mommy... mommy... " Tang tang cried. An Biru held her close, waiting for the emergency room to be opened.In the emergency room, Qin Haodong began work on Lin Momo. He took out his needle bag and gently shook some needles into his hands.With a d
"The injury is very serious," Ma Guoqiang said, taking out the text results from his pocket and sending them to Zhang Tianhe.Zhang Tianhe took the results and watched as he walked. The more he watched, the graver his face became. He didn't expect Lin Momo to be so badly hurt, and even if he took over the case, the odds of success would be very low.However, just now he had boasted and accepted the house. If he admitted the chance of failure now, he would be disgraced.Between words, they came to the emergency room, only to find the doors open. Qin Haodong was teasing a little girl at the door, and he looked very leisurely and relaxed.With sunken face, Wen Changjiang looked at Ma Guoqiang.Ma Guoqiang wondered how the operating room was already open. He rushed in and shouted, "Qin Haodong, you are an intern! Who gave you the right to operate on patients? My teacher could have saved Miss Lin without your meddling. Now
"Qin, go back to check Miss Lin's condition. Hurry, or it will be too late!" Ma Guoqiang said. His future and life were at stake, so he had to hurry."What are you saying?" asked Qin Haodong."Miss Lin is not well; she is in danger! Help her, please!""How? What did you do?" Qin Haodong asked coldly. He knew very well about Lin Momo's situation. As long as the needle was in her body, she would be fine."Don't blame me! Zhang Tianhe asked me to pull the needle –""Bastard!" Before Ma Guoqiang could finish his words, Qin Haodong landed a mighty kick on his belly and sent him flying. Ma Guoqiang was kicked away like a ball, landing in a flower bed about eight meters away."The big idiot was flying. Playing football is really fun!" Tang Tang clapped her hands excitedly.Knowing that Lin Momo was in danger, Qin Haodong immediately gave Tang Tang to An Biru and rushed to the emergency room, leaving
The VIP room was well equipped. Qin Haodong fetched a pot of hot water."Mr. Qin, Let me help," said An Biru."No, you don't know where her injuries are. You would easily touch them," he said and began cleaning off the blood stain on Lin Momo's body with a towel.An Biru did not say anything more but stared at the young man in front of her. His moves were so gentle and his expressions were serious as if he was wiping a precious treasure. An Biru wondered how a young man, barely in his twenties, could be so mature.Qin Haodong eventually wiped off all the blood, revealing a stunning face.Although he had seen many saints and magical princesses, and the few women in the Cultivation World were all exceptionally beautiful, he was still amazed by Lin Momo's beauty. He realized that, at the first sight of Tang Tang, Qin Haodong had regarded Lin Momo as his woman."Why isn’t Tang Tang's father here?" he asked.
Lin Momo got out of bed and stretched out her stiff limbs. She felt her body had recovered to the same level as before the injury. Qin Haodong was right – she was well enough to leave the hospital. She asked An Biru to sign the discharge papers.As they got to the gate of the hospital, they saw several limos parked in front of the gate. At the sight of Lin Momo, Zhang Debiao came up to her with a dozen bodyguards. After the incident yesterday, Lin Zhiyuan sent bodyguards to strengthen protection for his daughter.To Qin Haodong's disappointment, he saw only the bodyguards and no sign of Tang Tang. Luckily, he’d just laid some groundwork. In the name of going to Lin Momo's house for treatment, he got into the car with Lin Momo.At the gate of the Lins' villa, An Biru went back to work, and Qin Haodong followed Lin Momo into the house. As soon as they entered, they saw a mess. Lin Zhiyuan was holding Tang Tang in his arms and rushing to the door
"You... what... what are you talking about?" Gao Yan took two involuntary steps back."I said it's smelly. You know what I mean!"Neither Lin Zhiyuan nor Lin Momo understood what Qin Haodong meant.But Tang Tang hopped and cried, "I know! I know! Aunt Gao's breath really sticks. Once she did not wear a mask, and her breath smelled like fart and made me lose my appetite!"The others then realized that Qin Haodong meant that Gao Yan had halitosis and wasn’t referring to her offensive words. They had thought Gao Yan wore a big mask because of a doctor's natural obsession with cleanliness, but now they knew that she was covering up her bad breath.Although she took no offense to Tang Tang's words, Gao Yan was so ashamed that she wished she had disappeared.She didn't have bad breath as a child but somehow developed it in high school. In order to cure this unspeakable disease, she’d chosen to become a doctor. S
"Doctor Qin, what are you going to cook?" asked Zhang Dafu enthusiastically as they got to the kitchen."Tang Tang has just recovered from her illness, so she'd better have a light meal. I'll just make her some porridge," Qin Haodong replied. "Do we have the ingredients for eight-treasure rice porridge?""Yes, but it's raw and hasn't been soaked. Porridge takes time to prepare.""Never mind, just give me the ingredients!" Qin Haodong insisted.Zhang Dafu silently despised Qin Haodong. It was pretty common knowledge that the ingredients for eight-treasure rice porridge needed to be soaked for no fewer than four hours prior to cooking. He was wasting his ingredients on a complete layman!But Mr. Lin had given orders to let Qin Haodong do what he wanted, so he gathered a small bowl of the ingredients and handed them over. After all, he wouldn’t be the one losing face.Qin Haodong took a look at the bowl and s
Qin Haodong did have something to do — he was going out to get a present for Tang Tang. Lin Momo had agreed to let him be Tang Tang's godfather, and he needed a gift for when his daughter called him “father” for the first time.The market was very big. There were small stalls lining the path for about two kilometers after the entrance, and behind them was a huge medicine wholesale market.In the wholesale market were large-scale wholesalers of medicinal materials which had high quality, so the prices were naturally higher.The stalls outside sold medicinal materials picked from the mountains by nearby medicine farmers. Their prices were lower, on average, but with good and bad materials mixed together, it was easy to get fake medicines.Qin Haodong didn't need to worry about these. As a practitioner, he was very sensitive to Spiritual Qi. He could distinguish the authenticity and the year of the medicinal materials at a glance.
