Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Falling Off a Horse in Public, the Founder of the Medical Community
She wanted to go in and find out for herself, her body already leaning forward, but she was stopped by Jiang Man with a slap to her face, her voice cold, full of chill, "Only Uncle is allowed to go inside."
The message was clear: dare to take another step forward, and my slap will not be so merciful!
Jiang Rou instinctively shrank her neck and leaned back.
Hu Guanghua was overwhelmed with excitement, being the first to witness the miracle, unable to contain his joy.
Jiang Man slightly shifted aside, and he took a long stride, stepping in with a large stride.
Jiang Man casually closed the door, crossed her arms, stood in front of it like a guardian deity, intimidating anyone from approaching.
In the sick room, Old Master Hu was still lost in confusion.
After all, he had been lying there for over twenty years, sleeping through them all.
Fortunately, unlike other comatose patients, he had been conscious in his brain over the years, so he was clear about what he had been through.
"Dad..." Hu Guanghua moved forward excitedly, clasping the old man’s hand, his voice trembling.
Despite being middle-aged, he still cried like a child in front of his father, "I’m not dreaming, am I? Dad, are you really awake?"
The old man paused and said, "Aguang, help me sit up first."
"Ah!" Hu Guanghua responded loud and clear, busying himself back and forth, first adjusting the bed and then looking for a pillow.
Finally, he carefully positioned the pillow behind the old master’s back.
After sitting up, the old master felt as though he had been reborn.
However, having lain down for too long, he found his legs seemed uncontrollable and immobile.
"I didn’t call just you in here for no reason. Being able to wake up is already a blessing from heaven. While I’m still conscious, I want to entrust you with my last will; take note."
"Okay." Hu Guanghua, tears in his eyes, turned on the voice recorder on his phone and placed it on the bed.
"I own mostly real estate, and you four brothers have worked hard; you’ve built up the businesses by yourselves. My properties are just icing on the cake for you."
Hearing this, Hu Guanghua had roughly understood his father’s intentions.
"Her name is Jiang Man, right?" the old man’s tone softened.
Over the years, whenever Hu Guanghua had the time, he would visit the hospital and recount everything that happened at home to the old master.
Thus, even though the old master had been bedridden for over twenty years, he wasn’t out of touch with family affairs and understood the matters very clearly.
"Yes, her name is Jiang Man."
"All of my real estate, I’m leaving it all to Xianyun and Manman." the old master said in a low voice.
At these words, Hu Guanghua’s eyes widened.
"Manman saved my life, and besides, she has suffered for so many years. Her mother wronged her, and if a child fails to be taught, it’s the parent’s fault; I ought to compensate on behalf of her mother."
With that, the old master sighed.
Every time he thought of his disobedient daughter, his heart would clench with anger.
"As for Xianyun, that boy is different from the other children of the Hu family. He sacrificed for the country, a true model of a fine man! My property will be his reward!"
"Dad, they might have objections to your decision..." Hu Guanghua lowered his head.
Even though he was powerful and influential in the city, at home he wasn’t all-powerful and often found himself at a loss.
"They will certainly object, so this matter will be up to you to handle. You are the eldest, and after I’m gone, you will be the head of the family, the authority of the house!"
"Okay." Hu Guanghua nodded, saying no more.
The old master closed his eyes, "I’ll rest for a bit. Let everyone come in one by one later. I’ve only heard their voices over the years—still don’t know what several of my grandsons look like."
"Especially Manman." It’s rare for the Hu family to have a girl.
The old master smiled knowingly, "You don’t know, when I first found out Fangqin had a daughter, I actually wasn’t angry anymore and wanted to bring the mother and child over, but who knew she’d abandon the child?"
"Cough, cough, cough..." At this point, the old master trembled all over with agitation.
"Never mind." He waved his hand.
As one nears death, clinging to hatred into the coffin serves no purpose.
"Also, let Fangqin come in later, as for that good-for-nothing Jiang Yueping, forget it."
"Okay, we’ll do as you say."
...
Outside the hospital room, a group of people craned their necks in anticipation.
Despite the crowd, everyone was very quiet and well-mannered.
At that moment, the old man’s attending doctor rushed over with a group of interns.
The nurses’ station had detected some unusual signs in the old man’s vital signs, so they hurried over.
A man on the verge of death had a normal heart rate? That was utterly inconceivable!
They thought the machine was broken.
It wasn’t until the attending physician arrived at the door of the ward and saw Jiang Man that he stopped abruptly, in disbelief.
"So you are my grandfather’s attending doctor?" Jiang Man also recognized him, her tone light and breezy.
"Man..." the doctor began to call out her full name.
But Jiang Man raised an eyebrow, "Regarding my grandfather’s condition."
"Do you have any instructions?" the doctor asked, flattered, glancing at the students around him.
"Aren’t you going to pay respects to the Divine Doctor?"
The interns looked at each other.
Many of them were older than Jiang Man.
Calling someone who looked like a female college student ’Divine Doctor’?
They didn’t know if their teacher had gone mad or if their ears were failing.
"What are you standing around for?" the attending physician urged them immediately.
Reluctantly, the students shouted, as if they hadn’t eaten enough, "We pay respects to the Divine Doctor..."
Jiang Man wasn’t interested in these titles, but instead said calmly, "Find me an office to talk."
"Yes, yes, yes! Let’s go to the dean’s office! If he knew you were here, he would be thrilled! After you!"
After speaking, the attending physician stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation with utmost respect.
As Jiang Man was about to leave, she glanced at the people around her, her gaze landing on Hu Zonghua.
"Second Uncle, I’ll be right back. Please take care of things here."
"Okay..." Hu Zonghua agreed verbally, but he was utterly puzzled inside.
After Jiang Man and a group of people in white coats had left, the hallway suddenly became noisy.
"Why is Doctor Zheng so respectful towards Manman?"
"He asked his students to call Jiang Man ’Divine Doctor,’ which means she is considered a senior to Doctor Zheng in terms of status?"
"How is that possible!"
Everyone exclaimed, finding it unbelievable.
A young woman in her twenties, considered a senior to one of the top neurosurgeons in the city?
No one would believe it if it were told; they would definitely think they were insane!
"She just used traditional Chinese medicine, right? This is a Western medicine hospital, how can traditional Chinese medicine be a senior to Western medicine?"
The crowd was full of doubts, utterly baffled.
"My little cousin is divine!" Hu Ming raised his eyebrows. "Does she practice witchcraft?"
"Brother, it’s 4202, and you’re still into feudal superstition?"
"Then you tell me, Doctor Zheng, when all the doctors in the port city were helpless, how did Jiang Man save our grandfather?"
"This..." Hu Hao scratched his brow. "Didn’t you hear Doctor Zheng’s title? My little cousin is probably very prominent in the medical field, a Divine Doctor."
"She is a Divine Doctor?" Hu Ming rolled his eyes.
He would rather believe that a comet would hit his head today than believe that Jiang Man, at her young age, was a Divine Doctor!
