Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

"Doctor, how did I get here? And how long will it take for me to recover?"

"Your symptoms will take a long time to heal, so you should pay more attention to your diet in the future. You can eat more fermented pasta and easily digestible foods in moderation.

I also suggest you take a few days off to rest. Although work is important, you can't take your life for granted. If you keep neglecting your health, big problems will arise sooner or later."

The doctor shook his head helplessly, and then while recording the medical records, he gave her some earnest advice. After all, the body is her own, and if the patient does not care about it, no matter how much others say, it will be of no use.

"Thank you, doctor. I will take good care of my health in the future."

Knowing that she was indeed fine, Xu Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely thanked the doctor.

"You're welcome. Just a final reminder: if you feel unwell in the future, seek medical attention immediately. Don't bear it. A minor illness can become a major one if you delay it. Although the problem this time wasn't serious, it's thanks to the timely delivery. Otherwise, it would have developed into gastric bleeding, and the consequences would have been disastrous!"

After saying that, the doctor put away the ward rounds record and left the ward with the nurse. They were in the emergency department and there were still many things to deal with.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, doctor!"

Xu Hongdou on the hospital bed nodded and closed her eyes. She felt heavy and weak all over. She had to rest and then go back to work.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to rest, but she has no choice. Like many young people who want to take root in this city, she needs to work hard every day to make a living.

From the lowest level foreman, floor supervisor, all the way up to housekeeping manager, only I know the bitterness of it.

In order to serve VIP customers well, she is often on call 24 hours a day, almost on call at any time, for fear that she will miss a customer's call due to a few minutes of rest, which may lead to complaints.

However, even though I work so hard and earn so much, I still have to budget carefully every month. I hardly take holidays off, so busy that I don’t have time to eat, and I have to endure illness again and again...

At the same time, Han Tao and the hotel waiter returned to the ward one after another, but the hotel waiter went in first.

"Manager Xu, you're awake! I got some hot water for you. It's a little hot, so I'll put it here first."

Looking at the girl, Xu Hongdou smiled and nodded in thanks: "Thank you, Xiaoxia. I'm sorry for the trouble."

Hearing her say this, the girl waved her hands embarrassedly and said, "It's not a bother, it's not a bother, it's all my responsibility!"

After saying that, the girl looked at her watch and seemed to be hesitant to speak. She had just received a call from her boyfriend, who said that he had come from another place to see her. In addition, it was sudden and she had already switched shifts with a colleague today, so she didn't know what to say.

The girl's name is Xia Duoer. She was newly assigned to the hotel a few days ago. She is related to a colleague, so I would like to ask her to help and take care of him.

Therefore, Xu Hongdou looked at the hesitant Xia Duoer and took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong, Duoer? Is there something wrong?"

Xia Duoer pinched the corner of her clothes and mustered up the courage to say, "This is what happened, Manager Xu. My boyfriend came to see me today, so I took a break. I didn't expect you to fall ill suddenly."

As soon as she heard the meaning of this, Xu Hongdou understood the other party's situation, so she smiled and said, "It's okay, go and do what you have to do, don't keep your boyfriend waiting for too long."

"Or, I'd better wait for you to finish the infusion!"

"No, the doctor said I'm fine. I can go home after the IV drip. Go ahead!"

"Then I'll be leaving first. If you need anything, just call me anytime. See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"

Xu Hongdou nodded, watched Xia Duoer leave, and then slowly closed her eyes. Although there was no big problem this time, the feeling of powerlessness lying on the hospital bed still made her feel a little sad.

Tao bumped into Xia Duoer who had just left the ward. He learned that she had to leave for something urgent and was in a hurry. He said that he would leave a little later and could help take care of Xu Hongdou.

Finally, as Xia Duoer expressed her gratitude, Han Tao walked into the ward. At this time, Xu Hongdou on the bed still looked a little pale, and she was resting with her eyes closed.

Seeing this, Han Tao put the document on the bedside table and said, "Manager Xu, are you feeling better? I put the document here for you."

After asking, Xu Hongdou opened her eyes, looked at Han Tao beside her, and asked in surprise, "Mr. Han, why are you here?"

"No need to get up, be careful of the rolling pin!"

Seeing her trying to struggle to sit up, Han Tao quickly waved his hand to signal her to just lie down, and then explained:

"We got on the elevator together, remember, and then you fainted before you finished speaking, so I asked the front desk to call 120, and then followed the ambulance to take you to the hospital.

Next time you feel unwell, be sure to see a doctor immediately. Gastric ulcers aren't a serious illness, but if you don't take care of them, they can lead to complete damage and bleeding, which can be a serious problem. If we hadn't discussed your condition today, you would have almost delayed your treatment."

Hearing Han Tao's answer, Xu Hongdou slightly widened her eyes and said in disbelief:

"Mr. Han, you were the one who brought me to the hospital? I'm so sorry. Not only did I delay your workout, but I also made you go to the hospital."

"It's okay. It happened suddenly and I just happened to encounter it. How could I just stand by and watch?" Han Tao shook his head slightly and replied softly.

Looking at Han Tao, who was gentle and unassuming, and thinking of him going to the hospital for her, Xu Hongdou said gratefully:

"Mr. Han, thank you, I'm sorry for causing you trouble!"

"Are you a family member of the patient?"

Seeing Han Tao and Xu Hongdou talking, the doctor on rounds came in with the nurse and asked directly.

Hearing this, Han Tao quickly stood up and said, "Hello, doctor. I'm her friend. How is she doing? Does she need to be hospitalized?"

"Don't be afraid, it's nothing serious."

The doctor glanced at the pale Xu Hongdou and Han Tao who was concerned about her, and said:

"No need to be hospitalized. You'll be fine after these few bottles of medicine. Go home and get more rest. Eat more regularly and eat three meals on time, especially fermented noodles and easily digestible foods."

"Okay, I understand, doctor, thank you!"

"You're welcome. Take this prescription to the pharmacy to pick up some medicine. They're all for nourishing the blood and stomach. Take them regularly for a while after you go back. Your friend still has some anemia!"

"Okay, doctor, thank you for your help!"

Han Tao took the prescription and stood up to get the medicine. Xu Hongdou, who was lying on the hospital bed behind him, wanted to reach out to stop him, but Han Tao had already left the ward.

The doctor gave a few more instructions and left the ward with the nurse, leaving Xu Hongdou alone to close her eyes. She was so tired and wanted to have a good rest.

However, the sudden concern caused ripples in her heart as she was struggling alone in Kyoto, and she was caught in an indescribable feeling for a moment!

.....................

Chapter 568 Chen Nanxing

When Xu Hongdou closed her eyes to rest, her cell phone suddenly rang, waking her up from her deep thoughts.

She stood up and took the phone, and found that it was her best friend Chen Nanxing calling. She quickly answered the call and pretended to be calm and asked:

"Hey, Nanxing, why are you calling me so late?"

"Hongdou, are you off work? I just got back to Kyoto and I'm coming to see you now."

Hearing Xu Hongdou's voice, Chen Nanxing asked happily. She was very busy with work and was always on business trips. Sometimes they wouldn't see each other for two or three months, so every time she came back, she would stay at Xu Hongdou's place for a few days.

"Why are you back so suddenly? I'm still working overtime, so I might have to wait for two hours. Why don't you go upstairs first? I'll bring you whatever you want to eat after work."

Hearing Xu Hongdou's answer, Chen Nanxing frowned. She noticed that her best friend Xu Hongdou's voice was not right, and sounded weak, so she asked with concern:

"Hongdou, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Is the pain coming back? I barely have the energy to listen to you talk. Why don't you talk to your boss or ask a colleague to switch shifts with you?"

Xu Hongdou knew that Nanxing understood her best and was most worried about her, so to prevent her from getting anxious, she hurriedly explained:

"Nanxing, please don't worry. I'm really fine. I just have a stomachache again. I'll be fine after a rest. Don't worry."

"What's good about that? You've had this stomachache for so long. The last time I came back, you were vomiting at night. I told you to go to the hospital, but why didn't you agree? Once treatment is delayed, a minor illness will turn into a major one!"

At this moment, the fluid in the bed next to Xu Hongdou ran out, and the nurse came to change the dressing. Chen Nanxing heard the other party's words of thanks, which scared her. Everyone went to the hospital, and it seemed that the condition was serious.

"Hongdou, are you in the hospital? What happened to you? Why are you hiding it from me? Tell me which hospital you are in."

Seeing that her best friend Chen Nanxing was crying, Xu Hongdou could only tell the truth in order not to make her worry:

"Nanxing, don't panic. I'm really fine. I just fainted today in class due to a sudden stomachache and anemia. A client happened to see me and took me to the hospital. I'll be back after I get the injection."

"Hongdou, don't lie to me. Are you really okay?"

"It's really okay. I wouldn't lie to anyone but you. Don't worry, I'll be back soon. You can go upstairs and rest for a while."

"I'm glad you're okay. Don't be so careless next time. If you feel unwell, take a rest. It will probably take me more than an hour to get to your place. Let's meet at the gate of our community. I'll get off and go to the supermarket!"

Chen Nanxing heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that Xu Hongdou would be back soon. If her condition was really serious, her best friend wouldn't be discharged so soon, so she felt much more relieved. However, she suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked:

"By the way, Hongdou, you are alone in the hospital, why don't I go directly to the hospital to accompany you, and I can also help you get some medicine and so on. After the injection, we can go home together."

Xu Hongdou sat up a bit and shook her head, "No need. My client hasn't come yet and has already gone to get medicine for me. You must be very tired after being away on business for so many days. Don't run away. Just wait for me at home."

"Hongdou, was your client a man or a woman? How old is he, and why is he still staying in the hospital with you?"

After saying that, Chen Nanxing waited for her best friend's response, the fire of gossip in her heart burning. Xu Hongdou is 28 years old this year, and she also has a boyfriend during her work.

However, both of them were in the rising stage of their careers, and one lived in the West Fourth Ring Road and the other in the East Fifth Ring Road. This distance made it a long-distance relationship for Xu Hongdou. It was difficult for the two to see each other, so they broke up a long time ago. Since then, Xu Hongdou has been single.

Therefore, Chen Nanxing has always been very concerned about Xu Hongdou's lifelong affairs. She and Xu Hongdou are college classmates and good friends for more than ten years. They also work hard together in Beijing, both in the hotel industry. They can be said to be each other's spiritual support.

"Stinky Nanxing, don't get me wrong, Mr. Han is one of my top VIP clients. We had some interactions because of the odor in the suite. Later, when I was checking the room, I ran into him in the elevator again and we chatted for a while.

However, Mr. Han had served in the military and had studied Chinese medicine with a comrade from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. He could tell that I had stomach problems, so I told him some symptoms and precautions. Coincidentally, I fainted from stomach pain at that time, and he understood my condition and came along. We had no connection."

Xu Hongdou was speechless. Her best friend cared more about her life than she did. She even couldn't help but want to introduce good boys to her for blind dates when she had them around her.

"Hongdou, don't lie to me. A top VIP customer must be a true bachelor. Isn't he handsome?

Since you say he's so amazing, could you help me take a look if you have the chance? I've been feeling tired lately, and my back aches from time to time."

Hearing her best friend Chen Nanxing's answer, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but roll her eyes and change the subject:

"Nanxing, if you feel unwell, go to the hospital for a check-up. I'm planning to have a gastroscopy. If you're not in a hurry to leave this time, let's do a physical examination together.

"Don't change the subject. Judging from your attitude, I guess he must be a handsome guy. Sister Hongdou, you're not young anymore. Don't miss the right one if you meet him, no matter if he's a client or something else. It's a great opportunity to be a hero and save the damsel in distress. Happiness must be earned."

"Why are you like my mom, nagging endlessly? You don't have a boyfriend either, so you should think about yourself first. Besides, I'm tired and want to rest for a while. I'll be done in about an hour. We can talk when I get home."

After saying that, Xu Hongdou sighed silently, and couldn't help but support her forehead with the back of her right hand, her face full of helplessness.

When Chen Nanxing heard her say this, he stopped nagging the issue and waved to hail a taxi while admonishing:

"Okay, you should have a good rest. I'll take a taxi to your place now. We'll meet at the gate of the community!"

Hearing this, Xu Hongdou once again looked at the potion hanging beside her, nodded, and replied, "Okay, I understand. See you later!"

"See you later. Send me whatever you want to eat so I can buy some at the supermarket in advance. Also tell me if there are any dietary restrictions prescribed by the doctor."

"No, let's go see it together when I get back. I can't eat raw or cold food for the time being because it's hard to digest."

"I understand. I'll wait for you to come back. Bye!"

Xu Hongdou smiled unconsciously when she heard the busy tone. This is what a best friend is. She is the one who knows all your shortcomings and deficiencies but still tolerates and trusts you. She is the one who sees through you but still likes you.

Nanxing has always been like this. No matter how busy or tired she is, she will come out to accompany her with just one phone call, and every time she is in trouble, she will do her best to help her.

..............................

Chapter 569: Long-lost System Prompt

Because of the nature of her job, Xu Hongdou didn't drink much water the whole afternoon. Just like she had reminded new employees before, there are many things to pay attention to when working in the service industry.

For example, eat less meat and odorous foods, such as ginger, garlic, and leeks, and drink less water to avoid going to the bathroom frequently and delaying receiving customers.

Therefore, Xu Hongdou, who put down her mobile phone, felt extremely thirsty, but the water that her colleague Xia Duoer had poured for her was on the table on the left, and her left hand was receiving an IV drip, so she could only stretch out her right hand as hard as she could to get it.

At this time, Han Tao just returned to the ward. He quickly handed the water cup on the table to Xu Hongdou and said:

"Manager Xu, be careful. Don't press on the hand that's getting the injection. If the needle rolls over, you'll have to do it again. If anything happens, just call the nurse or me."

Hearing Han Tao's gentle voice, Xu Hongdou suddenly thought of her best friend's words and felt a little embarrassed for a moment. After all, people are more delicate when they are sick, and their psychology is also the most vulnerable, and they are easily moved.

After a moment of silence, Xu Hongdou adjusted her attitude and said with a smile, "Mr. Han, I'm sorry to have troubled you today. It's already so late. You should go back and rest. I'm fine now. I'll transfer the medical expenses to you later."

Han Tao shook his head, moved a small stool for accompanying, sat in front of the bed, and responded:

"You're welcome. I see the little girl who came with your hotel has left first, and it's not convenient for you to be alone here.

I don't have anything important to do today, so you should have a good rest. There's no rush to pay for the medical expenses, we'll talk about it when you're better."

Xu Hongdou looked at Han Tao and saw that there was only calmness and concern in his eyes, and he did not have the same feeling as other people when they saw her. In addition, Han Tao really meant well, so it would be a bit unkind for her to refuse.

Thinking of this, Xu Hongdou nodded and said sincerely: "Mr. Han, thank you. If you hadn't been here today, I might have been in danger. And you even followed the ambulance to the hospital in person. I really troubled you.

I shouldn't have bothered you any further, after all, you've been with me all this time, and I really don't know how to thank you enough."

"It's okay. We're friends now. I admire Manager Xu's way of dealing with people, so we can be considered friends. It's okay to help each other. Besides, it's late at night, how can we be alone?"

After saying that, Han Tao stood up and took the empty cup from Xu Hongdou, placed it on the bedside table beside him and said, "Is that enough? Do you want another cup?"

Hearing him say this, Xu Hongdou didn't know how to respond for a moment. She also started to wonder in her heart, thinking about Han Tao's purpose, and didn't understand why he was so nice to her...

Seeing her confusion, Han Tao couldn't help but smile, and said gently: "Manager Xu, don't think too much. I'm a lawyer, and I just happened to see you faint. It's impossible for me to be indifferent.

This is my personality. I won't stand idly by even if it's a stranger. I think if you encounter this situation in the hotel, you will do the same thing as me."
