Chapter Seven Hundred and Thirty-Eight: Detrimental to Health

"Just... just now, were the Dean and those experts welcoming that kid?"

Inside the lobby on the first floor, until the Dean and Doctor Niu along with all the other experts had completely disappeared into the elevator, everyone still couldn’t recover from the shock and disbelief, their eyes wide open.

In everyone’s minds, the same question echoed.

"Who on earth is this kid?"

After a while, everyone finally came to their senses, looking at each other with expressions that asked the same question.

They really hadn’t expected that the Dean and the others would welcome such an unimpressive-looking fellow wearing such ordinary clothes, who seemed to have been running over here just a moment ago?

This was nothing like what they had imagined: several solemn Mercedes leading the way, followed by a dozen stern-faced bodyguards clearing the path, accompanied by a secretary, and a person of significant presence alighting from the vehicle.

"I think that young man must be some important figure’s son!"

"I think so too, he must be wealthy or noble, did you see just now? His clothes didn’t have any brand, but I just read in a magazine last week, that the wealthy nowadays like to keep it low-key, their clothes may look plain without any brands, but they are often personally made by top designers."

"..."

Soon, people began to unleash their imagination, speculating non-stop about Xiao Yi’s ’background’.

On the eleventh floor, within a special-grade VIP intensive care unit, three men wearing sunglasses and looking cold and menacing stood at the door like three door gods, exuding an aura that suggested no one should come near or else they would face consequences.

Xiao Yi followed a few doctors from afar out of the elevator, and seeing these men, he couldn’t help but frown.

These bodyguards, though they looked formidable, he could tell at a glance that they were only paper tigers; their skills were at best mediocre, merely stout in build, probably just having served as regular soldiers for a couple of years.

But his frown wasn’t because of this. What bodyguards others used had nothing to do with him; what made him frown was the flamboyance of the person inside the room. It’s normal for Jianguo’s staff to have a lot of highly skilled bodyguards during his hospital stays, both in quality and quantity much superior to these.

However, Jianguo’s bodyguards would never interfere with their work nor cause any negative impact on the hospital’s doctors and nurses; they would all dress simply and position themselves discreetly in various corners of the hospital.

These three, on the other hand, were affecting their work and other patients; family members of nearby patients coming out of their rooms would look at them with fear, and passing doctors and nurses tiptoed around nervously...

Moreover, more importantly, he noticed that under those sunglasses, their eyes were often glaring tightly at the young nurses’ chests and backsides...

"This is the place, Doctor Xiao, please wait a moment. I’ll go ask for permission," Doctor Niu, leading Xiao Yi to the door where the three men stood, stopped, apologized to Xiao Yi, and then approached the three bodyguards, smiling obsequiously, "Gentlemen, I am Mr. Zhao’s attending doctor. Could you please inform Mr. Zhao that we have brought a doctor, hoping to see him?"

"Hmph!"

After hearing Doctor Niu’s words, the bodyguards, seeing the large entourage, didn’t dare to be too arrogant or difficult, and turned to go inside to inform him, but their expressions still carried immense haughtiness, exhibiting no respect for the doctors, even snorting as they turned.

Such insolence!

Watching the expressions of the three bodyguards, a flash of coldness flickered across Xiao Yi’s eyes.

Already not fond of them in his heart, his dislike intensified, and his impression of the patient inside dropped completely; if not for the doctors’ sake, he would have turned around and left straight away.

"Which one of you is the new doctor we’ve called for?"

Shortly, a man around forty years old came out from inside. The man was good-looking with well-defined features. As he approached the door, he looked down upon the group of experts with arrogance in his tone.

"Mr. Liu, this is Doctor Xiao, a master of the medical field, whom I specifically invited," Doctor Niu quickly pointed at Xiao Yi and introduced him.

"Him?"

Mr. Liu followed Doctor Niu’s pointing finger, looking towards Xiao Yi beside him. His face displayed a moment of shock, and then, regaining his composure, he sneered disdainfully at Xiao Yi before turning to Doctor Niu, "You’re saying, this is the person you specially invited?"

"Indeed."

Doctor Niu nodded.

"Niu, have you lost your mind?"

Mr. Liu’s expression turned icy, "I’ll tell you, even if you’ve lost your mind, I certainly haven’t. Do you think Mr. Zhao is just anyone? Do you think he’s like those everyday cats and dogs lining up downstairs waiting for medical treatment? To be attended to by just any intern? Let me tell you, Niu, if Mr. Zhao doesn’t get better and something goes wrong, I will make sure you regret it immensely!"

Listening to Mr. Liu’s harsh words, all the specialists present changed their expressions. Doctor Niu’s face also reddened enormously. As a top expert of the hospital, when had he ever been berated like this before, especially in front of so many people?

The other specialists, who originally disapproved of the grand welcome Xiao Yi received and the excessive praises he was showered with, found Doctor Niu being scolded by Mr. Liu extremely satisfying.

Snickering internally, ’Niu, you’ve tasted your own medicine now, haven’t you? I’d like to see how you handle this!’

"Mr. Liu, although Doctor Xiao is young, he is not an intern. He is indeed a highly skilled divine doctor!"

Being inexplicably insulted that way filled Doctor Niu with an almost unbearable sense of injustice. He nearly burst out in anger, wanting to clap his hands loudly and spit in disdain, signaling that he would serve no more and that Liu could go find someone else. But thinking of the hospital’s interest and the potential consequences, Doctor Niu clenched his teeth, holding back his temper, as he explained.

"Divine doctor? Pah, Niu, do you think I, Liu, am an idiot or have you suddenly realized you are the idiot?"

Seeing that Doctor Niu not only did not show remorse but continued to argue and even claimed that the person before them was a divine doctor, Mr. Liu’s anger flared up instantly, pointing at Doctor Niu more rudely.

After finishing his rant, he added another sentence in his mind.

Do you really take me, Liu, for an idiot?

Divine doctor?

In this world, are there divine doctors in their twenties? Are there such ill-looking divine doctors?

"Mr. Liu..."

The dean, noticing that Mr. Liu’s remarks were getting more offensive and his expression uglier, was also reaching his limit of tolerance. After all, this was the First Affiliated Hospital of Central Plains University. He had hosted many important figures before—this man was acting arrogantly merely because he was associated with the Zhao Family. Ever since he arrived, he had been extremely rude and arrogant.

Suppressing the rage and urge to erupt inside him, he stepped forward, attempting to explain Xiao Yi’s credentials to Mr. Liu in the calmest tone possible.

But just as he began to speak, Xiao Yi reached out to stop him.

The dean looked at Xiao Yi with a hint of confusion, not understanding why he stopped him. Doctor Niu and the other doctors also looked puzzledly at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi, feeling their gazes on him, stepped forward without offering any explanation. Standing in front of the dean, he faced Mr. Liu with a brilliant smile.

He knew the dean was about to continue introducing him and promoting him, but he had reached his limit. He didn’t want them to endure any further humiliation on his behalf; he had decided to teach Mr. Liu a harsh lesson.

Watching Xiao Yi step forward, sporting that brilliant smile, the doctors around suddenly felt as if the air had become much colder, sensing an intimidating aura.

Mr. Liu, completely oblivious to the danger he was in, saw the smile on Xiao Yi’s face but only showed a trace of contempt and disdain. He scoffed inwardly, thinking it unbelievable that Xiao Yi was still able to smile. He was eager to see to what extent Xiao Yi could maintain that smile and what tricks he could play.

"So this is Mr. Liu, right?"

Xiao Yi, squinting his eyes, looked at Mr. Liu, "Mr. Liu, you must be around forty years old, right?"

"What does that have to do with you? Why talk such nonsense?"

Mr. Liu snorted coldly, his expression haughtily arrogant, seemingly unworthy of conversing with Xiao Yi.

"I just want to tell Mr. Liu that when reaching a certain age, it’s better to temper one’s temper. Being too irritable isn’t good for one’s health."

Xiao Yi appeared completely unaffected by the other’s contempt and disdain, as well as the rudeness in his tone. His smile remained radiant, even brighter than before, his eyes nearly squinting to slits as he spoke in an unhurried tone.(To be continued.
