Healing Doctor

Chapter 639 The Soft Persimmon

"Xiao Ji, so many!" Zhao Zhe murmured as he followed Ji Xiang, holding a thick stack of autographed jerseys, as if in a dream.

Among them were several jerseys worn by Neymar, which Neymar specially had mailed to him because Ji Xiang needed them.

For fans, these jerseys are priceless.

"It's alright," Ji Xiang said with a smile. "It seems very few patients refuse when doctors ask for their autographs. After all, I'm the surgeon."

"..."

Zhao Zhe had never encountered a situation where he needed an autograph before, and there was no one in a small, run-down place like Yuanliao who was worth asking for an autograph from.

Following Ji Xiang, every day felt like a dream, until the dream came true.

However, the dozens of autographed jerseys in his arms, including the only jersey in the world with the signature, are objectively real.

Zhao Zhe was secretly delighted; he never imagined that he would still be a fan of celebrities in his old age.

"Zhao Zhe, are you working as a sanitation worker at the First Affiliated Hospital?"

A voice came.

Zhao Zhe lowered his arm to make room, and a man in his forties with a full beard and several other people stood at the entrance of the ward.

"Ah! I forgot." Zhao Zhe exclaimed, the last sentence being addressed to Ji Xiang.

The man spoke rather rudely, his eyes and the corners of his mouth carrying a hint of contempt, which made Ji Xiang slightly annoyed.

Zhao Zhe is a member of his medical team, so why is he speaking to Zhao Zhe in this tone?

"And who is this?" Ji Xiang asked politely, even though he was annoyed.

"This is Xie Kai, my former colleague from Yuanliao City," Zhao Zhe introduced, holding up the jersey. "Old Xie, this is Ji Xiang."

"You remember that teacher who mentioned the other day that had blood in her child's stool, right?"

Zhao Zhe leaned close to Ji Xiang's ear and whispered the introduction.

Ji Xiang then remembered that a few days ago, Zhao Zhe received a phone call. The caller urgently asked Zhao Zhe to help him get a referral to a specialist at the First Affiliated Hospital.

As a result, they arrived so late that Zhao Zhe and I were almost at home.

It doesn't seem as urgent as they say.

Moreover, this doctor named Xie Kai was particularly rude, which Ji Xiang disliked.

"Zhao Zhe, you've been getting cocky lately! You've really gotten a lot more arrogant!" Xie Kai walked over and gave Zhao Zhe a loud punch, the sound echoing as Zhao Zhe's thin body bounced back with a thud.

"Well, I just do some auxiliary work for Xiao Ji."

"Like now?" Xie Kai glanced at the jersey and scolded, "Even nurses are better than you, and you call yourself a doctor?"

Zhao Zhe chuckled and did not refute.

Ji Xiang frowned. "Dr. Xie, if there's nothing else, we'll go back and rest."

"You..." Xie Kai was already used to riding on Zhao Zhe's shoulders and relieving himself anywhere, so he was a little stunned by Ji Xiang's words.

That's just how these people are; they're used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong. They'll definitely take advantage of someone as easy as Zhao Zhe.

"You need to have the attitude of asking for help when you need to see a doctor through connections. I'm only twenty-two years old, and I already know that." Ji Xiang blocked half of Zhao Zhe's body and looked down at Xie Kai's full beard as he spoke.

"Old Xie, Xiao Ji is the leader of my medical team. We've finished filming here and are getting ready to go home tomorrow. Look at you, you didn't even call me before you came; I almost came to nothing. What happened? Who's the patient?"

Zhao Zhe chuckled, trying to smooth things over so as not to embarrass Xie Kai.

Xie Kai's aura had been suppressed by Ji Xiang. In fact, he didn't have any aura at all; he had just been bullying Zhao Zhe for so long that it had become a habit.

After being rebuffed by Ji Xiang, Xie Kai was speechless.

Following the suggestion Zhao Zhe offered, Xie Kai pretended nothing had happened and began his introduction.

"This is Teacher Sun," Xie Kai said. "A month ago, I started noticing a small amount of rectal bleeding. I had a colonoscopy in Liaoyuan, and they found a 2.5cm polyp."

Xie Kai was, after all, an experienced doctor. Although his words were not pleasant, he explained Teacher Sun's situation quite clearly in just a few words.

Ji Xiang looked past Xie Kai and at the patient behind him.

The patient was about 30 years old and had a rosy complexion, but it didn't look healthy at all; it looked rather sickly.

It probably isn't tuberculosis, Ji Xiang thought to himself.

She was holding a bottle of purified water. Just as Xie Kai and Zhao Zhe were talking, the patient had already taken two sips of water.

Her hand trembled slightly as she drank water, and a little water spilled out, but the patient didn't notice.

"Hello, Teacher Sun." Ji Xiang walked over and greeted the patient with a smile.

"Zhao Zhe, I'm calling you to arrange a consultation with experts from the First Affiliated Hospital, not just some random nobody will do the work," Xie Kai said with a dark face.

"Old Xie!" Zhao Zhe's face darkened as well.

Xie Kai didn't care what he said about Zhao Zhe, but when it came to Ji Xiang, he touched Zhao Zhe's weak spot.

"How dare you speak like that!" Zhao Zhe said. "Xiao Ji's diagnostic skills are very high. To be honest, he's no worse than the head of the First Affiliated Hospital. And you should find..."

"Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom." Teacher Sun handed the bottled water to her family member and hurried off to the restroom.

Her action interrupted the argument. Xie Kai looked undisguisedly annoyed, but Ji Xiang didn't seem to care. He smiled and said, "Then come first thing tomorrow morning, and I'll ask Deputy Director Zou to take a look."

Xie Kai was somewhat satisfied.

He didn't come to find Zhao Zhe that night; instead, he just wanted to take a look around and check things out.

Otherwise, it would be a bit awkward if Zhao Zhe said he was going to a certain place tomorrow and I didn't even know where it was.

Xie Kai gave Ji Xiang a deep look before watching them leave.

……

"Xiao Ji, I'm sorry, Lao Xie just has this temper."

"Hehe, I guess I've gotten this temper since I saw you." Ji Xiang chuckled. "Brother Zhao, you're part of our medical team, it's not good for you to always be bullied."

"Sigh, I've gotten used to it over the years. A few sarcastic remarks won't hurt me. I'm a long-time doctor, and I gave up on the idea of ​​climbing any higher, so I just let it be. But I know things are different now, and I'll be tougher from now on."

"It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature," as Zhao Zhe once said.

The two returned to the hotel, and after asking around, Zhao Zhe carefully kept the Neymar's specially signed jersey.

The next morning, the two rushed to the First Affiliated Hospital.

The recording of the program has ended, and today's task is to say goodbye to everyone at the First Affiliated Hospital.

During this period, Ji Xiang came into contact with many doctors, including Director Yang, Zhai Yuhan, the drooling Deputy Director Zou, and General Manager Miao Pu, among others.

It's a collection of memories.

The recording of the program went smoothly, and it was only natural to visit each department to say goodbye before leaving.

Zhao Zhe received the call early and arrived at the First Affiliated Hospital, where he saw Xie Kai and Teacher Sun waiting for him at the main gate.

"Then let's go to the gastrointestinal surgery department first and see Deputy Director Zou. Have you brought all the necessary documents?"
