University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 721: Chapter 533: Just Cutting in Line, Hurry Up and Treat Me!

Brittle College Student: "We’ve already followed the way we saw on your live broadcast before, given him an umbrella, kept it shady, ensured enough ventilation, and someone has called 120 for emergency assistance. Maybe you shouldn’t go over there?"

Chen Mu was taken aback.

When he looked up.

What he saw was a group of brittle college students in front of him.

In every pair of eyes, there was undisguised worry.

Chen Mu pressed his lips together: "It’s fine."

He still walked firmly, carrying his medical kit, and left the campus clinic.

—

"Dr. Chen has always been the person who seems most afraid of taking responsibility, but when something really goes wrong, he still presses on without hesitation, sigh..."

"Actually, I think the brittle college students are not wrong this time, the bystanders have done almost all they can, now it’s up to the person’s fate."

"The comments on the stream really lack any human touch..."

"Exactly, if it were your own family lying there, would you still say such things?"

"If it were my family, I would warn them not to take advantage of Hai City University. At such an age, they should be aware of their own health and know if they can withstand the heat."

"The root cause of this situation is still that Hai City University didn’t manage it well. If their security personnel hadn’t thoroughly checked, how did an elderly outsider get into the queue?"

"Since Hai City University allowed the elderly from outside to mix in, they are now responsible and obligated to take care of them."

"???"

"This stream’s comments have recently been filled with a lot of impure stuff..."

"I agree, lately, you can see all kinds of outrageous remarks in the comments, no wonder my wife was so worried about public opinion before, because really some people’s way of thinking is vastly different from normal."

"..."

—

"Dr. Chen, you need to take responsibility..."

Su Bingbing followed beside Chen Mu, knowing that such words aren’t something a public figure like her should say, but she couldn’t help but quietly remind him.

In response to Su Bingbing, Chen Mu only gave a dull: "I know."

Led by the brittle college students.

Chen Mu quickly found the patient who had fainted, and Su Bingbing was somewhat surprised to discover that the fainted patient was the elderly man she had interviewed before.

After a simple examination.

Chen Mu pinched the patient’s philtrum, and the patient woke up.

Chen Mu: "This fainting was just caused by simple heatstroke, but the elderly man has a very serious heart condition. It would be best to follow the ambulance to the hospital for a proper period of treatment."

Saying this.

Chen Mu’s gaze also fell on the elderly man who had just woken up: "You should have been to the hospital before, right? Most likely, the hospital also mentioned your heart condition and said you need to have heart bypass surgery?"

Seeing the flash of awkwardness on the elderly man’s face.

Chen Mu immediately said in a positive tone, "The hospital where you were treated must have suggested this, right?"

The elderly man didn’t dare to meet Chen Mu’s eyes, but in front of the doctor, he honestly admitted, "Yes, they did suggest it..."

The surrounding brittle college students looked at each other in understanding.

"I understand now why these people come to our school to stir up trouble!"

"Why?"

"Why else, because Dr. Chen really knows his stuff!"

"Just a touch on the wrist, and he knows what’s wrong, and even knows a heart bypass surgery was previously recommended, but it was delayed by the patient themselves."

"If I hadn’t seen Dr. Chen pinching his fingers, I would have suspected this was fortune-telling, not pulse taking."

"It seems like both traditional Chinese medicine and Taoists learn things from ’Zhou Yi.’ Is it possible that certain principles they follow are inherently connected?"

"So, does it mean traditional Chinese medicine equals fortune-telling, and fortune-telling equals traditional Chinese medicine?"

"No way... How did your conversation get more and more mysterious..."

Maybe the brittle college students were just talking casually.

But often, what the speaker says without intent, the listener may take to heart.

Lying on the ground, the elderly man listened to the brittle college students’ debate, then stared unblinkingly at Chen Mu in front of him: "Um, Dr. Chen..."

Chen Mu: "..."

Even though the other party hadn’t started speaking.

But just by watching the way the eyes kept darting.

Chen Mu felt that whatever the elderly man was going to say next would probably be a bit outlandish.

Indeed.

The elderly man spoke up, "Can you, maybe, foretell if this heart bypass surgery of mine is truly necessary?"

Chen Mu: "..."

—

"Haha, this old man really thinks Dr. Chen is a fortune-teller!"

"Honestly, even from a Western medicine perspective, some methods of traditional Chinese medicine seem quite miraculous, but unfortunately, not all traditional Chinese medicine practitioners can do it."

"Exactly! I’m from Imperial Capital Medical University, and there was a case in our department where everyone felt the patient couldn’t be saved. Just then, a traditional Chinese medicine master happened to be there, and truly brought the patient back to life with one needle—it was miraculous! Everyone present was stunned!"

"My daughter wants to study medicine—should she study traditional Chinese medicine?"

"That’s really hard to say, one relies on talent, the other on teaching lineage. Few traditional Chinese medicine practitioners can perform such life-saving acupuncture across the country."

"I’ve always been curious if Dr. Chen’s acupuncture counts as traditional Chinese medicine emergency treatment, and if so, who exactly taught him?"
