The atmosphere outside the emergency room was oppressive. Mu Shen recognized Chen Xiao, who was running towards him, with a mixture of nervousness and fear. He forced a smile that looked more like a grimace and tried to flatter, "Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Chen. My name is Mu Shen, I am..."
He certainly didn't believe that Chen Xiao, who looked no older than twenty, possessed any remarkable medical skills. The reason he had decided to bring Mu Ni Hong to the central hospital and specifically requested Chen Xiao as the attending physician was mainly to curry favor with Chen Xiao.
At this moment, Chen Xiao's mind was solely focused on saving lives. He didn't even glance at Mu Shen, and before Mu Shen could finish speaking, he had already rushed into the emergency room.
Several doctors and nurses, led by Feng Da Xiang and Hu Yun, were making the necessary preparations for the rescue. Mu Ni Hong, who was as fat as a three-hundred-jin pig, lay stiffly on the operating table, the cardiac monitor emitting a continuous "beep, beep, beep" alarm.
Seeing Yang Long Jian panting as he led Chen Xiao in, Hu Yun and the others were immediately startled and recoiled. Feng Da Xiang quickly made an excuse about needing to use the restroom and fled.
Conversely, Li Bing Xue, who had been absent until now, coldly flipped through Mu Ni Hong's past medical records and sarcastically remarked, "Chen Xiao, Aunt Mu is a renowned socialite in Ju Xian City, Ye Qing Tian's mother, and her body is very precious. If anything were to happen to her, no one could afford the consequences. Therefore, I advise you to let Dr. Feng be the attending physician."
Through the patient's basic information displayed by the bedside, Chen Xiao had already guessed Mu Ni Hong's identity and wished he could turn around and leave immediately.
However, Mu Ni Hong's current physical condition was extremely grim, and any delay could be fatal. As a doctor with a compassionate heart, Chen Xiao ultimately could not bear it. He pinched his nose while examining Mu Ni Hong and retorted to Li Bing Xue with a cold sneer, "As the saying goes, a leopard can't change its spots! Dr. Li, are you suddenly appearing to participate in the rescue because you want to fawn over this pig surnamed Mu? But I'm sorry, since I am the attending physician, I will not let you succeed! Get out, don't force me to physically remove you!"
Yang Long Jian, following closely behind, impatiently interjected, "Li Bing Xue, didn't you hear what Dr. Chen said? Get out quickly!"
After a slight hesitation, Hu Yun, emboldened, said, "Li Bing Xue, since Dr. Chen has said so, even if you stay here with thick skin, you won't be on the list for this rescue."
"You... you all..."
Li Bing Xue was so enraged that her face contorted. She stomped her feet repeatedly and snorted, "Hmph! I'm not leaving! I want to see if the one surnamed Chen has the ability to save Aunt Mu!"
"It's merely obesity and a heart attack induced by anger. You certainly don't have the ability to save her, but for me, it's as easy as pie!"
Chen Xiao had already examined Mu Ni Hong's condition by this time. As he spoke, he directly put on disposable medical gloves and, through her clothes, began to massage and knead Mu Ni Hong's chest with his "Yin-Yang Ghost Hand" technique.
Li Bing Xue, furious, burst into laughter and mockingly sneered, "Skilled traditional Chinese medicine massage can indeed help a patient who has fainted from a sudden heart attack to temporarily regain consciousness. But you wearing gloves and massaging through clothes is too unprofessional. Do you even deserve to be a resident physician?"
"I just find it dirty! If you were lying on the operating table, I wouldn't be able to touch you even if I wore eight layers of gloves and massaged through a blanket!"
Chen Xiao retorted while performing the massage. The mysterious "Wordless Golden Prescription" in his mind operated as he willed it. Instantly, his left hand became as cold as ice, and his right hand as hot as fire. His stamina was consumed as if he were burning, and in a blink of an eye, he was covered in sweat.
"You..."
Li Bing Xue was so angry she almost spat blood. Gritting her teeth, she roared, "If it were me, I would rather die than let you touch me! Because with your massage, Aunt Mu wouldn't wake up even by tomorrow! You're delaying the rescue! You're disregarding human life!"
She had been taking care of Liu Zi Hao and Liu Jin Ya. The reason she suddenly appeared in the emergency room was that she had heard wind from Director Gou and wanted to use this opportunity to curry favor with Mu Ni Hong.
Now, seeing that Mu Ni Hong would not wake up, she simply turned and left. As soon as she stepped out of the emergency room, she eagerly said to Mu Shen, "Steward Mu, I suggest you quickly ask Director Gou to change the attending physician. Chen Xiao's medical skills are poor, and he has no ability to save Aunt Mu..."
People are selfish. Mu Shen certainly cared about Mu Ni Hong's health, but he cared even more about whether his secret assistance to Li Xin would be exposed, and whether Chen Xiao would send him to Ju Xian Mountain Prison in a fit of anger.
Therefore, without waiting for Li Bing Xue to finish speaking, Mu Shen stared at her name tag and interrupted her decisively, "As an intern, you dare to question a resident physician's medical skills in public? Li Bing Xue, is it? Who gave you the courage to be so presumptuous?"
Mu Shen, fearing that Chen Xiao might not hear him, deliberately raised his voice, speaking righteously and sternly.
"I... I... I I I..."
Li Bing Xue clearly did not expect Mu Shen to be completely indifferent to Mu Ni Hong's life or death. She was stunned and nervously argued, "I... I was just concerned about Aunt Mu's health."
