Chapter 541 Bai Qiujing's Acute Gastroenteritis
Bai Qiujing didn't want to go to the hospital. It would take too much time. He still had a lot of things to deal with. What would he say if he ran into his parents?
But if I don’t go to the hospital, and the condition gets worse as the assistant said, and I get sick, that would be even worse.
If he gets sick, who will support the Bai family? Who will protect Shen Zhichu?
He looked at the two burdens on his shoulders and couldn't let go of either one.
After a brief psychological struggle, he finally chose to go to the hospital for a physical examination with his assistant.
After getting in the car, Bai Qiujing forced himself to send a text message to Shen Zhichu, telling her that he would be working overtime tonight and would not be back.
He didn't want to tell Shen Zhichu that he was sick and went to the hospital, for fear that he would worry.
But Shen Zhichu has always been smart. He usually calls, and at this time his voice is hoarse and he has no energy to speak, so he sent a text message for fear that Shen Zhichu would call.
He was worried and emphasized it to his assistant again.
"Don't tell Shen Zhichu that I went to the hospital. Hold my phone for me. If she calls or texts, tell her I'm in a meeting."
He went straight to the emergency room at the hospital. The test results showed that he had acute gastroenteritis. His irregular diet, coupled with his recent fatigue from staying up late, and his poor mental state made his condition worse. In addition, drugs were found in his blood.
This dosage of medicine would make anyone feel sleepy after taking it, or even sleep for a whole day. I really don’t know how Bai Qiujing persisted, or how he managed to stay awake until now.
The doctor asked, "What have you eaten recently? Why are you still malnourished and suffering from low blood sugar?"
Bai Qiujing closed his eyes and said nothing. The assistant beside him thought he was asleep and answered for him, "My diet has been a little irregular recently. It's mainly because Mr. Bai has too much work."
"You can't starve yourself even if you work too much. If your condition gets serious, you might even vomit blood. You won't just need to go to the hospital for a checkup, but be hospitalized. In severe cases, you might need to stay in the hospital for a month. I've already prescribed the medicine, and the nurse will deliver it to you later. Also, you can search for nutritional recipes online. Don't eat restricted foods recently, and have a good rest for a day. By the way..." After saying so much, I almost forgot the most important thing.
Bai Qiujing was still resting, so the doctor could only say to his assistant, "The hospital has also found evidence of drug-induced aphrodisiacs in your boss's blood. This is the main reason he was admitted to the hospital today."
He was drugged but still trying to hold on, not eating and drinking stimulating black coffee, so he vomited it out.
"Knockout drugs?" Who would take this for no reason? Most likely, someone drugged him. The assistant was more alert and his first thought was that someone in the company drugged him, such as someone who was bribed to steal urgent documents.
But then he thought, he was the one who delivered the meal and received the coffee for Bai Qiujing, so he would not give anyone the opportunity to drug him.
But the facts are right in front of us, who would have the opportunity to drug?
Bai Qiujing didn't even drink a few sips of water today. He only had lunch and coffee. The assistant's mind was racing, wondering if he was drugged before coming to the company?
The most likely possibility is that he is at home, but there is only Shen Zhichu at home...
The assistant felt more and more terrified as he thought about it. He glanced at Bai Qiujing sleeping in the bed, then sent the doctor out the door.
Bai Qiujing handed him the phone. The screen had a desktop made of Shen Zhichu's photo. He couldn't unlock it without knowing the password. Of course... even if he knew the password, he couldn't open his boss's phone without permission.
There was nothing in the phone except a few spam messages. It had been an hour since the message was sent, and Shen Zhichu hadn't replied yet.
When Bai Qiujing woke up, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. He had slept for almost three hours.
I was still feeling dizzy and a little dehydrated. I couldn't make any sound, my mouth was dry, and my chest was burning.
The assistant quickly got him a glass of water and tried to help Bai Qiujing up, but he was pushed away by him. He was not so weak that he needed someone to help him drink water.
He propped himself up and leaned his back against the headboard, breathing lightly.
"Mr. Bai, water."
Bai Qiujing took the cup of water and started drinking. The cup was not big, so he finished it in just a few sips.
"More?"
Bai Qiujing nodded and handed the cup over.
The assistant took it.
After drinking a few sips of water to moisten his throat, his throat felt much better and he could speak. He looked at the assistant pouring water and the first person he thought of was Shen Zhichu.
"Did Zhichu send me a text message? Did she call me? Does she know that I'm sick and in the hospital?"
Asking three questions in a row confused the assistant. The assistant did not answer, but took the water and handed it to Bai Qiujing. After seeing him drink the water and put down the cup, he spoke.
"Madam didn't text or call back. She might be busy right now and doesn't know you're in the hospital."
Bai Qiujing breathed a sigh of relief at first, but when he saw the dark sky outside the window, he immediately felt something was wrong.
"How long did I sleep?"
"More than three hours, it's already half past five."
"Give me the phone." The voice was obviously impatient.
The assistant quickly handed the phone to Bai Qiujing and watched him open it and swipe it.
As expected, just as the assistant said, there was no response. This was not the usual Shen Zhichu.
Bai Qiujing made a quick decision and called.
