Healing Doctor

Chapter 525 The Unbearable Rookie

"Xiao Ji will definitely be fine with outpatient consultations. But Lao Bai, what kind of tricks do you think Ji Xiang might pull?" Director Liu asked.

"How would I know?" Director Bai said, holding his wine glass and smiling as he looked at Ji Xiang on the screen.

Half a month has passed since I last saw Ji Xiang. He seems to have become more mature and cheerful, and it's clear that he's living a pretty good life.

"Mengmeng, don't be nervous, just ask as usual," Ji Xiang encouraged Zhao Mengmeng.

But Zhao Mengmeng couldn't muster any energy at all; tension was etched on her face, making her look like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Ji Xiang did not "disdain" Zhao Mengmeng, a newbie, and intentionally or unintentionally maintained an appropriate distance while constantly comforting her.

"Ji Xiang can really chat with anyone. What's the point of talking to a newbie like him? It's a waste of time." Director Bai gave a rare, clearly biased comment.

"Ji Xiang isn't married yet, so his hormone levels are too high. Hey Lao Bai, weren't you like this when you were younger?"

"Of course not, you know that. Nurses and young female patients alike have pounced on me countless times, how could I possibly be tackled?"

When asked about past gossip, Liu Zhi smiled slightly, then turned his attention to the program.

Encouraged by Ji Xiang, Zhao Mengmeng... still lacked confidence and was forced to sit in the doctor's seat to begin seeing patients.

When Director Liu saw a middle-aged woman with almond-shaped eyes walk in with a smile, he shook his head helplessly.

Based on his judgment, this person should be someone from the nursing department.

The nursing department is like a hellish place in the hospital; these big and small devils are really difficult to deal with.

They are extremely demanding of nurses, and this is true in at least 90% of nursing departments across the country.

Endless meetings, exams, and pay cuts. It's as if frontline nurses can't demonstrate their abilities without exploiting them.

Those people in the industry can recognize that kind of face at a glance.

"Hello, what's wrong?" Zhao Mengmeng asked.

"Doctor, I've been feeling tired for the past few months, with occasional headaches and poor memory," the woman said, sitting in the chair next to Zhao Mengmeng.

"..."

Zhao Mengmeng suddenly didn't know how to continue the consultation.

I feel tired, have occasional headaches, and poor memory. What kind of illness is this?!

Normally speaking, this should be considered a sub-healthy state, and many people have similar problems.

She tried hard to recall similar symptoms from her memory, but soon Zhao Mengmeng felt somewhat desperate.

With a blank expression, Zhao Mengmeng looked at the "patient" beside her, with the camera right in front of her, and her mind immediately went blank.

Those few seconds were so awkward that the viewers watching the show felt like digging their toes into the ground.

"Damn it, those people in the nursing department are just so damn difficult and deserve a beating," Director Liu said disdainfully.

"hehe."

"Don't you think so? Stop being such a nice guy all the time. If you become the vice president, you'll definitely be managing the nursing department. What will you do then, surrounded by a bunch of people like that constantly asking for instructions and reporting to you?"

"I transferred Corey Xiao Mao there; he likes to interact with women," Director Bai said.

The two chatted for a few minutes, and the woman on the screen twitched her lips, clearly showing some disdain.

"Doctor, do you think I should get a head CT scan?" the woman asked.

"Yes... I think I'll take it," Zhao Mengmeng replied hesitantly.

"Then tell me what illness I have? What kind of illness is it?" the woman asked.

Zhao Mengmeng was completely bewildered. In front of the camera, she took out her phone and started... started... started searching online.

"Bang!" Director Liu slammed his head against the wall.

Director Bai also covered his eyes with his hands.

Zhao Mengmeng's unconscious action was truly an eyesore.

A doctor took out his phone to search for diseases online during a consultation. Where is his authority?

Director Bai and Director Liu were speechless. They even began to feel ashamed from a doctor's perspective, as if they were the ones sitting there facing the "patient," and felt infinite contempt for this rookie doctor.

Oh shit!

Director Liu leaned his head against the wall, clenched his fist, and cursed viciously in his heart.

That was really embarrassing.

Even after searching online, Zhao Mengmeng still didn't find anything.

After a full minute, she timidly said, "Headache, poor memory, and general weakness are likely due to overwork, poor rest, and irregular sleep patterns."

"I don't have much to do every day. My husband cooks, I exercise regularly, and I sleep well." The woman directly rejected the answer Zhao Mengmeng found online.

Showing no mercy, giving Zhao Mengmeng no way out.

"..."

Before Zhao Mengmeng could even read aloud from her phone about how the brain responds to physical fatigue, she heard the patients around her deny her claims one by one.

In an instant, Zhao Mengmeng felt very wronged.

I felt extremely wronged, as if the whole world was against me.

My nose tingled, and tears almost welled up in my eyes.

But during this time, Zhao Mengmeng had already accepted the fact that the camera was following her, so she didn't cry.

Zhao Mengmeng wiped the corner of her eye with the back of her hand and forced a smile, a smile that looked even uglier than crying.

"Doctor, what do you think is wrong with me?" The woman didn't soften her tone despite Zhao Mengmeng's aggrieved expression and continued to press for an answer.

"See, I told you it was the nursing department," Director Liu said. "Any doctor who went up there would have given Zhao Mengmeng a way out."

Director Bai neither confirmed nor denied the claim.

He lowered his head to pick up some food, no longer wanting to watch Zhao Mengmeng's clumsy performance.

This is hardly the behavior of a doctor; it's worse than a patient who has become an expert through long-term illness. Furthermore, the fact that he searched for information online in front of the patient is utterly outrageous.

When encountering problems that cannot be solved by oneself in clinical practice, the first step is to refer the patient to another department.

They would say it wasn't their department's problem and then transfer the case to a department like neurology.

Zhao Mengmeng remained silent, her head slightly lowered, tears welling in her eyes.

"Doctor!" The woman's voice didn't rise, but it was full of sternness.

It's like the head of nursing calling all the nurses in the department into the treatment room after the morning shift handover and scolding them one by one.

That domineering attitude made Director Liu very uncomfortable.

But there was nothing he could do.

It's frustrating to dislike someone but be unable to get rid of the head of the nursing department.

Zhao Mengmeng's clumsy house call ended quickly, and she left in tears.

Then Ji Xiang appeared in the consultation room dressed in white.

His white coat seemed to gleam, without a single wrinkle, looking incredibly professional.

Just as he turned around, Director Liu noticed two wet streaks on Ji Xiang's buttocks.

"Sigh, Dr. Ji has been corrupted by Meng Qingfei," Director Liu said with a sneer.
