Chapter 189 Rare Diseases

"A blood draw?"

Zhang Xiaoli felt distressed after hearing this. The child was thinner than other children of the same age. In addition, because of this disease, she had taken blood tests in many hospitals, but there was no problem.

It can be said that those hospitals can't find out what disease Xiaobei has. If they can't find out the cause after taking blood again, wouldn't her child suffer in vain?

Su Jinhui seemed to understand her concerns, so she persuaded her, "Blood tests are a must-do in every hospital. Don't worry about the cost. Our new hospital has a policy that benefits the people. Your entire series of tests will probably only cost a few dozen yuan, not much."

Zhang Xiaoli smiled awkwardly. She came from a town in the mainland. Everyone in her family was working, so they didn't need the money. She just felt sorry for her children. In addition, she had traveled all the way here, so she looked a bit like a country girl. In fact, her family background was quite good.

"Doctor Su, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant."

"I'm just worried that if the blood test doesn't produce any results, wouldn't that be a waste?"

"But if I don't draw blood, I don't know if her blood is normal. Besides, the child looks so much thinner than her peers. It's obvious she's malnourished, and it's definitely not just anemia. What if she has another disease that affects this area? What if the child never grows taller? How will the child live the rest of her life if so many things are delayed just because you didn't draw blood? Are you being fair to her?"

It’s no wonder that Su Jinhui said such serious things, because the child’s illness seemed a little complicated, so she had to investigate it carefully.

Perhaps Zhang Xiaoli was also frightened by what Su Jinhui said. She nodded repeatedly and agreed, "Okay, let's draw blood."

Su Jinhui drew blood from Zhang Xiaobei. Zhang Xiaobei was numb when he saw the needle, but he was still a little scared because he was just a teenager after all.

"Xiao Bei, have you ever had your blood drawn at other hospitals before? Did it hurt?"

Zhang Xiaobei hesitated for a moment and then shook his head. "It doesn't hurt, but my arm turns blue every time I draw blood."

"That's because the pressure they use to draw the blood may be different. It could also be because you didn't listen carefully to the doctor and didn't press for long enough after the blood was drawn, which could also cause the blood to turn blue."

Su Jinhui's voice was gentle and soft. Zhang Xiaobei was immersed in the conversation with Su Jinhui and didn't even react when he was pricked with an injection. Zhang Xiaoli was a little worried at first, but after seeing Zhang Xiaobei's condition, she immediately felt relieved.

After drawing blood, Su Jinhui pressed the cotton swab on the blood drawing site, "Xiao Bei, you must press the cotton swab for at least five minutes, otherwise your arm will become ugly and it will take a few days to heal."

Zhang Xiaobei nodded obediently.

Su Jinhui asked someone to send the blood for testing.

"For parents like this, since the blood test takes a while, maybe half an hour, can you take Xiaobei out to play for a while and come back to my office later?"

Zhang Xiaoli nodded and left with Zhang Xiaobei.

Su Jinhui glanced at the time. It was almost time for dinner. She thought that she still had half an hour to eat first, and it wouldn't be too late to come back and see the child later.

So I decided to go to the cafeteria.

When the workers in the cafeteria saw Su Jinhui coming here to eat, they were very happy to serve her food. This hospital was proposed to be built by Su Jinhui, and in fact, she was the dean of the hospital.

After dinner, Su Jinhui returned to her office, but on the way, she suddenly saw Zhang Xiaoli taking Zhang Xiaobei to play in the hospital playground.

The sun is very strong now, and it is at its hottest at noon. It was nothing at first, but she suddenly heard Zhang Xiaoli's scream.

"Xiao Bei, why are the red spots on your body getting worse? Come here quickly, let's go find Doctor Su."

Su Jinhui approached them immediately after hearing their shouts, "What happened?"

When Zhang Xiaoli saw Su Jinhui, she said to her anxiously, "Doctor Su, I don't know what's going on. The child was fine just now, and the red spots on her body weren't that serious. I just took her out to play for a while, and she didn't eat anything, and the red spots seem to have gotten worse."

Su Jinhui stared at the red spots on the child's body, then looked up at the sunlight.

"Let's go to my office first."

After arriving at the office, Su Jinhui poured two glasses of water for the mother and daughter. Then Su Jinhui and Zhang Xiaoli chatted about these nonsense for about twenty minutes. The red dot symptoms on Zhang Xiaobei's body seemed to have eased a lot.

Zhang Xiaoli was extremely anxious, but seeing that Su Jinhui was just chatting with her about family matters and didn't mention the child's illness at all, she felt a little worried that Su Jinhui might also be helpless.

Just when she was anxious, she turned her head to look at Zhang Xiaobei and found that the small red spots on her body seemed to have lightened a lot, the color was not so red, and the small red spots in some places had disappeared.

"How come it's gone so quickly?"

"Is it because of the water you drank?"

Su Jinhui shook her head, as if to confirm her guess, and said something that Zhang Xiaoli didn't understand, "Parent, please take Xiaobei out to play for a while and get some sun."

"What, Doctor Su, can you treat patients?"

"You asked me to go out and play with the child again. It's already been half an hour, and the blood test results should be out by now. Well, I know you're a very famous doctor, so I brought my child here to see you. You can't just treat me perfunctorily because of this. I'm rich, and I don't need your money. All I want is for you to cure my child's illness."

Seeing Zhang Xiaoli getting a little excited, Su Jinhui quickly said, "You misunderstood. Let me ask you, when you discovered the red spots on your child's body, was it because he was always exposed to the sun, and that's why it happened?"

"When you brought the child in just now, the red spots on her body were indeed not so obvious. After I came back from dinner and you played with her on the playground for a while, the red spots on her body became more serious. Didn't you ever suspect that it was related to the sun? I may have some suspicions in my mind, but I need confirmation."

"Take your child out to bask in the sun. I want to know if these little red spots will appear again."

When Zhang Xiaoli heard Su Jinhui's firm tone, she was speechless for a while. At this time, some other doctors came into the office. They were all promoted by Su Jinhui from the military hospital.

"Dear patient, please listen to Dr. Su. Her medical skills are the best in our hospital, and she even received further training in Kyoto."

"Even those experts in Kyoto approve of Dr. Su's plan, so you don't have to worry about it. If your child's illness can't be cured, it won't be too late to report it then."
