Chapter 70 How Rumors Originate
Xu Kaicheng and Lin Sanqi both studied at the same university, but when Lin Sanqi was an undergraduate, he was a graduate student.
Both of them like playing football, so they often play together and are quite familiar with each other.
In a corner of the hospital's outpatient department, Xu Kaicheng listened to Lin Sanqi telling the inside story of why he was rejected from his internship.
"Damn, your instructor is such a jerk. How could he let an intern take the blame for this? You're also stupid. How could you take on something like this so easily?"
Lin Sanqi also had a lonely look in his eyes:
"I'm too young. Teacher Zhan said he was at a critical stage of promotion. He also assured me that since the patient wasn't dead, the matter wasn't serious. The worst that could happen was compensation, and he would cover all the costs. So I..."
Xu Kaicheng felt a little disappointed after hearing this:
"So you didn't report it to the hospital or the school afterwards? You seemed like a pretty smart player, but you were so cowardly at the crucial moment?"
"I reported it to the medical department and the student affairs office, but they ignored me. Teacher Zhan even said he had asked the leadership to intercede on my behalf."
"And you believed it?"
"Hey, what are you talking about? You can't beat me. They will definitely protect each other and won't help an outsider like me."
Lin Sanqi felt bitter, but what could he do? The matter was done.
The hospital also needs to maintain stability. Sacrificing an intern can save the hospital's reputation and employees. This is a worthwhile deal.
Although Xu Kaicheng felt sorry for this junior fellow, there was nothing he could do as he was just a small doctor.
"By the way, what brings you to our Eighth Hospital today?"
"Well, I have some sputum that I'd like to test to see if it's tuberculosis. If it is, I'd like some medicine."
Xu Kaicheng didn't take it seriously: "It's just a small matter. Come on, follow me to the laboratory."
There are a lot of tests to diagnose tuberculosis in the hospital, such as X-rays, blood tests, sputum culture, other immunological tests, etc.
In fact, the simplest way is to do acid-fast staining, then look under a microscope, and if you see the tuberculosis bacilli, you can confirm the diagnosis. The whole process is very fast.
An hour later, Xu Kaicheng looked at the microscope and said to Lin Sanqi next to him:
"Come, take a look for yourself. The tuberculosis bacteria are quite obvious. Antibacterial treatment is available. By the way, is this sputum sample yours or someone else's?"
Lin Sanqi originally wanted to say that this was someone else's sputum, but when he thought about using his medical insurance card later, in order to avoid unnecessary complications and not to cause trouble to Xu Kaicheng, he could only lie:
"Well, Senior Xu, just treat this as my sputum. I'm quite busy lately, so please help me prescribe a course of medicine."
The Medical Insurance Bureau is very strict about using borrowed cards to prescribe medicine. Once discovered, it will affect the assessment of the prescribing doctor.
"Okay, come with me to my office and I'll prescribe some medicine for you."
Xu Kaicheng smiled on the surface, but in his heart he felt very sympathetic towards this junior fellow apprentice.
Lin Sanqi was deprived of his graduation certificate and bachelor's degree due to a medical dispute. This matter has long been spread in the circle, which is regrettable.
Many people also know that Lin Sanqi broke up with his girlfriend after graduation. The fact that this pair of Condor Heroes, who were once favored by everyone, separated in this way also made many people sigh.
As a result, the hemp rope always breaks at the thinnest part, and misfortune always finds the unfortunate. The junior brother suffered a double blow in his career and love, and his health was also broken. How could he be so unlucky?
An hour later, Lin Sanqi picked up a course of anti-tuberculosis drugs from the pharmacy.
"Senior, thank you for helping me with the free tests, prescribing medicine for me, and even personally accompanying me to pick up the medicine. Let's get together when you are free."
Xu Kaicheng still smiled and patted Lin Sanqi's shoulder:
"Okay, as long as you have time, I'll definitely accompany you. Sanqi, our lives will be full of ups and downs. How can we see the rainbow without going through the storm? You are still young, and youth has infinite possibilities, so you must be strong!"
After saying that, he waved his fist to cheer.
Lin Sanqi was a little confused as to why this senior brother suddenly gave him chicken soup, as if he had a terminal illness.
But the other party also had good intentions, so Lin Sanqi quickly made a fist-waving gesture:
"Okay, I will definitely do my best. Thank you, senior. I'll go back now."
"Okay, go back and be careful on the road!"
"Uh-huh!"
Lin Sanqi was holding a bag of medicine and looked back several times. He could still see Senior Brother Xu waving goodbye to him from afar.
At this moment, Lin Sanqi really wanted to recite a poem: "The eight courtyards in Huadu are a thousand feet high, but they are not as high as the love that my senior gave me."
"It seems I'm quite popular," Lin Sanqi thought as he happily walked towards the hospital entrance...
Xu Kaicheng sighed heavily as he watched Lin Sanqi walk away. He hid in a corner, took out his phone, and sent a WeChat message to another college classmate:
"Guess who I just saw?"
"Who is it?"
"Lin Sanqi, the one who used to play football with us."
"Oh, Lin Sanqi, I know, is he the one who got expelled from school? This guy is really unlucky."
"That's him. The poor junior not only didn't get his diploma, but his girlfriend also broke up with him."
"Ah, student love is so unreliable. I will never believe in love again."
"Let me tell you, there's something even worse. Lin Sanqi came to our hospital today for tuberculosis!"
"Ah, tuberculosis? This poor kid, is he okay now? Is he feeling down? You must try to talk him down. Don't let him stand near the window..."
Xu Kaicheng and his classmates sighed for a long time, and finally typed a line of words:
"Don't tell other students about this. I'm telling you this because we're close."
"I know. I promise not to tell."
As a result, the student clicked on a friend in WeChat Moments and sent a message:
"I'm going to tell you a secret, but don't tell anyone else. Xu Sanqi went to the Eighth Hospital for a checkup today. He has tuberculosis..."
By evening, the news had spread throughout the student community at Huadu Medical University: Lin Sanqi had lung cancer!!!
That night, Lin Sanqi's phone and WeChat messages exploded. Before he could reply, the name of the person he least wanted to see appeared on the phone screen: his ex-girlfriend.
Lin Sanqi took a deep breath, then answered the phone and replied gently:
"Hey, Xiaojia..."
"Wuwuwu, Lin Sanqi, you bastard, why didn't you tell me that you had such a serious illness? Wuwuwu~~~~"
Lin Sanqi had a black question mark on his face, and then looked his body up and down.
What serious illness do you have?
That night, Lin Sanqi kept replying to WeChat messages and phone calls, and like Xianglin Sao, he kept repeating that he didn't have lung cancer...
