Chapter 248: Chapter 245 Fickle and Flirtatious
Zhang Hao finished his meal as quickly as possible and returned to his post.
He saw a female patient sitting in front of his consultation desk.
"Hello, may I ask where you feel uncomfortable?"
Just as the female patient was about to speak, she caught sight of Zhang Hao’s eyes and immediately started stuttering.
"I... I..."
Zhang Hao, thinking she was nervous, soothed her with a kind voice,
"Don’t worry, take your time. Only by describing your condition accurately can we treat you correctly."
The female patient could feel Zhang Hao’s gentleness, and with his words, her initial nervousness gradually vanished.
She also revealed a hint of admiration in her eyes.
"Doctor Zhang, may I ask you a question?"
Zhang Hao looked up at the woman, "What question?"
"Do you know He Qianhui?"
Upon hearing that name, Zhang Hao immediately paused his actions.
He looked at the woman carefully, "Are you talking about Xiaohui? What happened to her?"
"I’m her colleague. Today, she had an argument with one of our male colleagues at the company, and the two almost came to blows."
Zhang Hao wasn’t sure about what kind of person the male colleague was, but he knew very well what kind of person He Qianhui was.
She would definitely not get into a fight with anyone; with her gentle and weak nature, she couldn’t possibly do such a thing.
"There must be some conflict in between, isn’t it all because of that ring you wear?"
"There are several male colleagues in our company who are interested in her, and yet she wore that ring to work today."
"It attracted so much attention, so naturally, there were people who were not pleased. They just wanted to ask her what it was all about."
"But she ignored the feelings of those male colleagues and thanked them for their goodwill."
"However, if she has been with you all along, why would she entangle herself with those male colleagues?"
Entangle herself?
Zhang Hao sharply captured the essence of these words.
"Right, don’t you know about all this, or is she deliberately hiding it from you, not letting you find out?"
Hearing this statement, Zhang Hao instantly became vigilant and scrutinized the woman up and down.
"If you are not here for medical treatment, I must ask you not to take up my working time. Besides, what kind of person Xiaohui is, I am most clear about it."
Seeing Zhang Hao’s change in attitude, the woman immediately backtracked, "I am here for medical consultation, but who says we can’t chat during it? I am doing this for your own good."
"I don’t want you to be too close to a bad woman, no matter what happens."
"Doctors are a respected profession, and you wouldn’t want to bring home a woman who is promiscuous."
This statement silenced the entire department.
"How come, are you very familiar with my girlfriend?"
The woman shook her head with a smile, "I can only say we are colleagues, but I mean well. If Doctor Zhang doesn’t wish to hear it, then pretend I didn’t say anything."
"My lower abdomen has been uncomfortable recently. If you have the time, please help me take a look, a massage would be good too."
Zhang Hao didn’t particularly like this woman and tactfully refused, "I am not too skilled in that kind of treatment. There are two other doctors over there, they are professionals."
The woman looked back and forth twice, "No, I want you."
Seeing he could not push her away, Zhang Hao could only reluctantly proceed to examine the woman.
Once they were in the consultation room, the woman hurriedly began to undress.
Zhang Hao meant to stop her, but she had already taken it off.
"I’ve been through similar examinations at other hospitals before, it’s always been done this way."
"I know that you doctors wouldn’t take advantage of your work to be inappropriate with female patients, and besides, those parts are just a piece of flesh to you, aren’t they?"
Normally, it would have been Zhang Hao who said this, but now the woman had snatched his line, so he naturally didn’t need to repeat it.
The woman lay down on the examination bed, her eyes moving about in their sockets — up, down, left, and right.
She didn’t care at all that her lower half was exposed; just in case, Zhang Hao still called Ling Tong in.
He didn’t want the woman to complain about him being a pervert after she left.
When Ling Tong came in, she was also startled by the scene, but she had seen all kinds of strange things in the hospital.
Soon she regained her composure and stood quietly by the side of the examination bed.
"Curl up your legs," said Zhang Hao.
The woman followed Zhang Hao’s order obediently, curling up her legs and slightly parting them.
Zhang Hao was almost fully geared, with a mask covering his mouth and nose, leaving only his eyes exposed.
He also wore disposable medical gloves on his hands.
"Do you feel any discomfort?"
"A week ago, I was intimate with a friend, and I’ve been itchy ever since."
"I suspect there might be some inflammation inside. I’ve been very busy at work these past few days and only managed to find time to come for a check-up today."
With a serious attitude, Zhang Hao began the examination; unavoidable contact with certain parts was imminent once he started.
Zhang Hao tried to avoid as much as possible, but that area was not very large to begin with.
No matter how careful he was, there would still be brushing contact.
"If it hurts, let me know," he said.
After that, Zhang Hao inserted two fingers to conduct the exam.
Just at that time, the patient, with her eyes closed, occasionally let out moans from her throat.
In the end, Zhang Hao quickly withdrew his hand.
"There’s no serious issue there, but you do have a slight inflammation. I will prescribe some medication for you, take it on time, and you should recover in about two weeks."
The woman still lay there with her legs apart, maintaining her position on the examination bed.
"Should I come back for a follow-up check in two weeks, like today? Will Doctor Zhang need to insert his fingers inside me again to check?"
"As long as you don’t feel itchy yourself, there’s no need to come to the hospital. If you still feel uncomfortable after the medication, then you can come back to the hospital."
After prescribing the medication, Zhang Hao called Ling Tong to leave with him.
At the door, he reminded her that the examination was over and she could get dressed and come out on her own.
Once they left the treatment room, Zhang Hao immediately returned to his desk, pulled out two wet wipes, and thoroughly cleaned his hands.
Ling Tong came over, curious to ask who that woman really was?
From the conversation just now, it wasn’t hard to deduce that the two must know each other, or at least have some sort of connection.
"Mr. Zhang, just tell us the truth. Why did that woman come to the hospital to toy with you?" Ling Tong asked.
Zhang Hao, resigned: "What else could it be for, if not to get my attention? But why have you also become curious?"
Ling Tong blinked: "After all, it involves Mr. Zhang. I definitely need to pay more attention so that I don’t miss anything."
Zhang Hao felt that Ling Tong’s words also carried a double meaning, but fortunately, they were on the same page.
"Don’t joke about me. Later, when that patient comes out, you escort her to get her medication and then there’s no need to bring her back," he said.
The woman had already come out of the treatment room before his words had finished.
She coincidentally heard Zhang Hao’s comment as she did so.
The female patient approached Zhang Hao, leaning on the desk with one hand, her eyes filled with feminine charm.
"Doctor Zhang, I’m telling you this out of kindness. If I really wanted to watch you and that woman make fools of yourselves, I wouldn’t bother warning you," she said.
After the woman left, Zhang Hao felt irked, but he didn’t go to seek confirmation from He Qianhui.
He was all too familiar with He Qianhui’s character. He always left the hospital twenty minutes before the end of his shift, just as he did that evening.
