Chapter 369: Chapter 0369: Good Caregiver
"Doctor Liu." Doctor Feng looked at him with an incomprehensible expression, "As the head physician of our hospital, how could you possibly believe the nonsense this kid is spouting? We have been studying Old Lady Shen’s condition for so many years to no avail. How could this youngster, who hasn’t even attended Medical University, possibly cure her?"
Doctor Liu felt extremely ashamed by Doctor Feng’s words; he was the epitome of a fair-weather friend.
At first, Zhang Chenggong was deferential towards Chu Ge, so to maintain his own position, he also treated Chu Ge with utmost respect.
But now Doctor Feng was calling him a world of martial arts swindler, directly hitting a sensitive spot deep in his heart.
He had initially thought Chu Ge was a swindler as well, who had poisoned Mr. Tang with some unspeakable method, only to then detoxify him in person.
That way, he could achieve fame.
Doctor Liu immediately regarded Chu Ge with a very suspicious look, "I feel Doctor Feng has a point, Mr. Chu. It’s not that I don’t trust your skills, but Old Lady Shen’s illness is indeed peculiar, and considering this is a matter involving the Shen Family, your involvement might just ignite a war."
Chu Ge was puzzled, "Ignite a war?"
He hadn’t realized he had such capability; merely trying to treat a patient could ignite a war?
Chu Ge knew in his heart that what he meant was about both the Tang Family and the Shen Family, but these families had already reconciled their differences. It seemed these antiques hadn’t received the news yet.
However, Chu Ge didn’t plan on explaining; it was too troublesome, so he gently added, "Whether it can ignite a war or not, that’s none of your concern. I am here at the invitation of Mr. Shen, not by your hospital."
What he implied was, I’ve set my sights on this patient.
After hearing what Chu Ge said, Doctor Feng snorted and laughed, "What did you say? You said you were summoned by Mr. Shen? Hahaha, this might be the funniest joke I’ve ever heard in my life.
Young man, you’re from out of town, aren’t you? Are you unaware that the Tang Family and Shen Family in Su City are sworn enemies? You are an honored guest of the Tang Family, and Mr. Shen invites you to treat the old lady? Such big talk doesn’t hurt your tongue!"
"The Tang Family has already reconciled with the Shen Family." Chu Ge’s face showed no sign of anger. Some things are never absolute; it’s just that some people are unwilling to believe and try.
Chu Ge turned his head and glanced at Tang Haowan, smiled slightly, and said, "Isn’t that so, Mr. Tang?"
Since Mr. Tang was sitting in a wheelchair, Doctor Feng hadn’t noticed Tang Haowan’s presence until Chu Ge suddenly turned to speak to him. After a moment of stupefaction, it took a long time for Doctor Feng to regain his voice.
He now felt his face stinging painfully, "Mr. Tang? What are you doing here?"
Tang Haowan chuckled lightly, his lips curling up with a hint of sarcasm, "Our Tang Family and Shen Family have reconciled today and reached a consensus. That old lady is seriously ill; shouldn’t I come to pay a visit?"
Doctor Feng still found it hard to believe, "The Tang Family and Shen Family really made up?"
Tang Haowan hummed in affirmation, slowly nodding his head, "What, do you want me to call that old immortality personally and have him confirm it to you before you believe it?"
Doctor Feng was a titan in the world of medicine, but his status in Su City was nowhere near that of the Tang Family and Shen Family. The only reason he agreed to treat Old Lady Shen for Shen Wei Qian was to curry favor with the Shen Family in order to seek business opportunities and benefits for his family enterprise.
Over the past two years, the Feng Family’s business had improved, ranking among the smaller families of Su City.
If he offended Tang Haowan and the Shen Family hadn’t reconciled with the Tang Family, it was possible the Shen Family would help him against the Tang Family. However, if things were as Tang Haowan said, the Feng Family would have a hard time standing firm in Su City.
Doctor Feng started getting a headache; he didn’t want this young man to treat Old Lady Shen, because if he succeeded, he would no longer have any excuse or opportunity to seek favors from the Shen Family.
Moreover, if this young man managed to cure her, his reputation would definitely become the talk of the medical community after dinner.
Colleagues would also laugh at him for being less capable than a twenty-year-old, especially since this young man doesn’t even understand the basics of medical science! If he was cured by him, wouldn’t he become a complete joke?
But if it was as Tang Haowan said, and this young man had been personally invited by Mr. Shen to treat the old lady, then his persistent obstruction could also lead to offending the Shen Family.
At this moment, Doctor Feng was in a real dilemma.
Right when Doctor Feng was feeling conflicted, a series of hurried footsteps came from not far away, led by a visibly tired Shen Wei Qian.
He had been drinking but woke up after a couple of hours, so as soon as he woke up, he hurried over here.
As he entered, he saw many people standing in the corridor, all gathered at the door of the sickroom, each face filled with a strange expression.
Shen Wei Qian stepped forward respectfully and said to Chu Ge, "Mr. Chu, I was planning to come to the Tang Family to pick you up, but I didn’t expect you to have come over in advance."
Chu Ge smiled and explained, "Because Mr. Tang needed a check-up, I came over with him to take a look."
Shen Wei Qian rubbed his hands together, a bit nervously asking, "So Mr. Chu, have you already examined my wife? May I ask how she is..."
Chu Ge shook his head, "Mr. Shen, someone here didn’t want to let me in, so I’m currently unable to determine and diagnose the noble lady’s condition."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wei Qian’s expression immediately darkened, and he looked disapprovingly at the caregiver, reprimanding, "You can leave, you don’t need this caregiving job anymore."
Upon hearing this, the caregiver’s legs nearly gave out from fear, and she looked bewilderedly at Shen Wei Qian, then turned her gaze to Chu Ge. She hadn’t said anything; she had simply been following the orders given by Shen Wei Qian earlier, so why had she been dismissed in the end?
It was tough to find a job these days, and although taking care of Old Lady Shen was exhausting, the salary was good.
"Mr. Shen, are you serious? I was just following your orders, you said that no one other than the chief physician should come within half a step of the sickroom."
The caregiver said this, her voice carrying a sob. If she lost this job, where would she find another one with such high pay?
Shen Wei Qian snorted harshly, "You nearly offended my benefactor, and you claim innocence? Rest assured, I will pay you three months’ additional wages. Now pack up your things and leave immediately!"
Chu Ge was listening on the side somewhat speechlessly and explained, "Mr. Shen, you are too harsh. She hasn’t offended me; on the contrary, she has been very dedicated to caring for Old Lady Shen, a good caregiver indeed."
