Chapter 142 : Doctor
The man introduced himself with a smile, “Hi there. My name is Cui Mao. You must be Chu Hao’s friend, right? I didn’t expect you to be so young.”
Fang Liu replied embarrassedly, “Hello. Nice to meet you, Cui Mao. I’m Fang Liu.”
Cui Mao brought the two to his office and made some tea. The fragrance of the tea lingered in the air as Chu Hao said, “Fang Liu was the person who developed the healthcare product that I recommended last time.”
Cui Mao was shocked to hear this. He looked at Fang Liu in disbelief, and after a while, he said, “You’re a true genius. I was curious about the product since it was able to catch Chu Hao’s attention. After analyzing the composition of the formula, I realized that it was indeed bold and innovative. But I never
expected the developer to be a young lady.”
Cui Mao then continued, “Chu Hao told me that you recently attended university to further your studies. Are you interested in medicine?”
Fang Liu nodded. “Of course. I’m especially grateful for the opportunity to learn from Doctor Cui’s clinic.”
Cui Mao smiled and turned to look at Chu Hao. “Are you feeling guilty for not coming into work while receiving an annual salary from me? Is that why you sent me such a talented student?”
Chu Hao glanced at Cui Mao and said displeasedly, “Listen to yourself. Didn’t I help you with a few high-risk surgeries last time? I’m not that heartless, okay?”
Cui Mao curled his lips into a faint smile. “That’s because your family had cut you off from the family funds. Otherwise, a distinguished doctor like yourself wouldn’t have come to my little clinic for work.”
Fang Liu found it amusing that the two friends bickered. She wanted to laugh aloud. After a long pause, Cui Mao said to Fang Liu, “Miss Fang, if you’re interested, you can go downstairs and settle into a senior doctor’s office later.”
Fang Liu was shocked, ‘He wants to put me in a senior doctor’s office? With this thought, she hurriedly said, “T-That’s too much, Doctor Cui.”
After a minor discussion, Cui Mao brought Fang Liu a set of white scrubs and prepared a consultation room, especially for her.
After Cui Mao left to answer a phone call, Fang Liu looked at Chu Hao with unease and said, “B-But I don’t have any experience with consultations. How can Doctor Cui be so trusting?”
Chu Hao casually took a seat, crossed his legs, and smiled. “Gosh, listen to yourself. You’re greatly underestimating your capabilities. Cui Mao isn’t an evil doctor who would joke about his patients. He’s smart enough to know that you can handle yourself.”
Chu Hao then pointed toward the sign at the door and continued, “Also, this is the dermatology department. He didn’t assign you to the surgical department because he knew you would be under too much psychological pressure.”
Only then did Fang Liu Feel at ease. The two sat in the consultation room for a long while before Chu Hao got restless. He said, “I’m going to go outside for a smoke. If you need something, just give me a call.”
Fang Liu nodded, and when Chu Hao left, she took out a surgical mask from the drawer and put it on. Then she anxiously waited for a patient to visit. Only two people came to visit her after an hour.
One of the patients was a chubby lady, and the other was a child with skin allergies. Fang Liu managed to take care of both of these patients quickly by prescribing them some medication. Then the clinic fell silent again.
The consultation rooms in the clinic were luxurious and spacious. The doctors would conduct their consultations in the outer area, while the inner area could be used as a resting place. Although it was only a temporary resting area, it was outfitted with various facilities, including a big-screen TV.
Fang Liu looked around the room and sighed, “This is such a comfortable place for doctors.’ Then she looked outside and saw no patients around, so she yawned and took out her cellphone to play some games to pass the time.
The air conditioner was on, but Fang Liu felt uncomfortable, so she leaned against the door and breathed in the fresh air. Fang Liu had completed two levels of her game when a nurse suddenly called out from the door, “Doctor Fang, may I borrow you for a moment?”
Fang Liu was puzzled. She approached the nurse and asked, “What’s wrong?”
The nurse said embarrassedly, “The doctor I’m assisting has an upset stomach, but there’s a patient that needs his assistance. Can I trouble you to check on the patient on my doctor’s behalf?”
Fang Liu was confused as she looked at the young nurse’s name tag, “But you’re from the medicine department, and I’m from the dermatology department.”
The young nurse was speechless, and sweat appeared on her forehead. When she thought of the large sum of tips that she had received from the patient, the young nurse gritted her teeth and said, “T-That patient also asked if he could see a dermatologist. Since my doctor isn’t feeling well, he told me to
ask you for help.”
