Chapter 190: Chapter 189 Is He Really Divine Doctor Xiao?

(Thanks to the Happy Soul of Book Friends for your daily support, thank you!!)

——————————————————————————

As a duty doctor, he usually could only watch the hospital director from afar and rarely even speak to him. Unexpectedly, the director had just personally called him.

Wait... What did the director say?

Full cooperation with Divine Doctor Xiao?

No matter what Divine Doctor Xiao requests, try to satisfy it? If anyone dares to obstruct or affect Divine Doctor Xiao’s work, or if they cause any dissatisfaction for Divine Doctor Xiao, they can pack up and leave immediately?

Recalling the director’s words, the doctor shuddered awake, abruptly stood up from his chair, and dashed out of the office. While walking outside, he became increasingly nervous, thinking that the hospital was in a critical period and several colleagues had already been kicked out after making grave mistakes. He couldn’t afford to slip up and have the same happen to him here.

"Who here is Xiao Yi, Divine Doctor Xiao?"

Hurrying back to the critical illness ward, the doctor quickly asked the crowd with a deferential tone and a smile on his face, his gaze scanning over those who looked like they might be the Divine Doctor, yet he didn’t even glance at Xiao Yi beside him.

"That’s me."

Seeing the doctor’s expression, Xiao Yi knew that Elder An’s call had taken effect and promptly stood up and said.

"You?"

The doctor looked at Xiao Yi who had stepped forward, slightly stunned, then his expression darkened, "If you cause any more trouble, don’t blame me for calling security to throw you out."

"How can you be like this? He really is Xiao Yi, can’t you see that by checking his ID?"

Wang Qingqing looked at the doctor disapprovingly.

"Are you really Xiao Yi?"

Hearing Wang Qingqing’s words, the doctor’s face finally changed, looking at Xiao Yi with some suspicion.

"Why would I lie to you, would I earn any money by doing that?"

Xiao Yi was also starting to get angry. If before it could be said that the doctor was simply doing his duty, now it was clear there was contempt for him, as if being young meant he couldn’t be a doctor.

"Divine Doctor Xiao!"

Just then, an enthusiastic voice suddenly came from the side.

A doctor in his forties or fifties, dressed in a white coat and walking hurriedly, approached Xiao Yi with warmth on his face.

"Dr. Zhang... Dr. Zhang?"

The on-duty doctor who had originally been preparing to ask Xiao Yi for his ID card, saw the doctor hustling over, and his expression instantly changed, gaping with disbelief.

In this department, Dr. Zhang, as their most badass doctor and also one of the hospital’s top and most influential experts, was said to be the only one in the department to have received recognition from prestigious medical institutions in Europe, and had published several papers in authoritative European medical journals. He was naturally someone the duty doctor could not fail to recognize.

But wasn’t he supposed to be resting? Why was he here?

Dr. Zhang seemed to not see his presence at all, and made a beeline towards Xiao Yi, swiftly walking over to him, stretching out his hand enthusiastically and said, "Divine Doctor Xiao, I’m truly sorry, I was actually on vacation at home and only rushed over after receiving a call from Elder An. I hope I’m not too late to be of assistance to you."

"You must be Dr. Zhang, right? You’re too polite. I apologize for causing you to rush back here during your time off," Xiao Yi responded upon recognizing the man at once. Dr. Zhang had been one of the group of doctors who had rushed over with Elder An previously. Seeing his warm demeanor, Xiao Yi quickly responded with courtesy.

"Let’s not stand on ceremony, saving lives is what’s important. Let’s go in and assess your friend’s condition and plan out the treatment," Dr. Zhang recommended.

Dr. Zhang was one of the experts who had followed Elder An before, and had personally witnessed Xiao Yi’s miraculous Needle Technique, a technique so incredible that it still seemed unbelievable to him. After witnessing it, he had gone home and flipped through many traditional Chinese medical texts, but unfortunately did not find an answer. In the end, it took Elder An’s explanations for him to have some understanding, yet it still seemed incredible. Concepts like "burning stone" were completely incomprehensible in the realm of his Western medical training.

This very experience was why he held not the slightest disrespect for Xiao Yi, who appeared to be in his early twenties.

"Okay!"

Xiao Yi quickly nodded in agreement, his respect for Dr. Zhang growing in his heart. This mindset of putting saving lives first truly represented the dignity and honor a real doctor should embody.

Being a doctor is a sacred profession, and it shouldn’t turn into a reason for doctors to place themselves above their patients. It should be about genuine care and compassion from the heart.

On this point, Xiao Yi had always admired the Western tradition regarding medical ethics and professionalism.

He had to admit that they were doing much better in the realm of medical professionalism and ethics, by orders of magnitude, than the domestic practices.

The reverence and rituals associated with choosing this sacred profession didn’t seem to Xiao Yi to be just empty posturing.

This time, with Dr. Zhang leading the way, nobody dared to stop them.

As they both entered, the on-duty doctor at the door grew pale, sweat beading on his forehead and began to drip. He could never have imagined that this young man, in his early twenties, was actually the Divine Doctor Xiao mentioned by the dean, and Dr. Zhang’s demeanor had solidly confirmed his identity beyond a doubt.

If he mentioned this to the dean--no, even just to Dr. Zhang, his job might not be safe anymore.

Thinking of this possibility, the on-duty doctor’s legs began to tremble.

The nurse who had first stopped Xiao Yi also turned pale, not expecting that the young man, skinny and in no way resembling a doctor, was indeed one.

The parents waiting nearby were all equally astonished; nobody expected that this young man was actually a doctor and, by the looks of it, had significant clout in the hospital to summon such an impressive doctor from his vacation to assist.

Wang Dawei and Li Xiaomei, watching the backs of Xiao Yi and Divine Doctor Zhang as they walked in together, began to feel stirred, their hearts shifting from despair towards a glimmer of hope.
