Chapter 146: Bumped
Zhang Moyan was furious, but there was nothing she could do.
There are many people in the Xiao family who have a say, but they all silently follow the teachings of their ancestors, including Xiao Xingyu herself. Subjectively, she accepts the punishment without complaint. What objection can she, an outsider, have?
After leaving the room, a cool breeze blew in my face, calming my boiling mind a bit. I decided to do something more practical. Pulling my phone from my pocket, I opened a search app and typed in questions like "How is pulmonary hemorrhage treated?", "How should a sternum fracture be treated?", "What should I do if a rib pierces my lung?"
The search turned up a dazzling array of coping methods and recommended medicines, and the answers given by different doctors could not be summarized. Zhang Moyan was unsure for a moment and thought it would be better to ask a professional at this moment.
Unfortunately, the only gynecologist she knew well was the one who treated her dysmenorrhea, and she always made appointments online, so she didn't have the doctor's personal phone number.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in her mind. Isn't there Dean Geng? Isn't Dean Geng a professional? And Dean Geng is also Teacher Xiao's friend. How could she have almost forgotten!
Zhang Moyan's fingers quickly searched for Geng Jun's number.
"Hello, Miss Zhang?" Geng Jun's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Director Geng, I have a few questions for you. Is it convenient for you now?" Although he politely asked if it was convenient, he didn't wait for the answer and got straight to the point. "If someone is beaten to the point of bleeding in the lungs or broken ribs, what should be done immediately at the scene?"
There was silence on the line for two seconds, and then a polite voice rang out, "Is the injured person with you?"
"Injured?" Zhang Moyan paused. "No, no injured yet. I'm talking about prevention."
There was silence on the other end of the line for another two seconds. "Oh, I see. Sorry, I'm in a meeting right now. I'll call you back in half an hour, okay?"
"Oh..." Zhang Moyan felt a little sorry, "Okay then," but still a little impatient, "Then please call me as soon as possible. I'm afraid Teacher Xiao won't make it in time. Thank you."
Just as he was about to hang up, the voice on the other end of the phone pressed him, "Teacher Xiao? Which Teacher Xiao?"
"It's your friend Xiao Xingyu!"
"What's wrong with him? Wait a moment," Geng Jun's voice came from the phone as he stood up and spoke to someone else. "You guys discuss it first, I'll take a call."
There was silence on the phone for a while. About half a minute later, Geng Jun's voice came out again from the receiver, very anxiously: "Miss Zhang, are you with Xiao Xingyu now?"
"Yes, he and I are in Ruzhou. I've been doing some interviews with him recently."
"Oh, how is he doing now? You just mentioned a fight. Is Xiao Xingyu fighting with someone now? Have you called the police?" He asked three questions in a row without taking a breath, with an unusually caring tone. Even at that moment, Zhang Moyan felt a surge of emotion in his heart: "He's worthy of being my CP. I'm so happy with him."
Zhang Moyan said without delay, "He didn't fight with anyone, but... it's a long story. In short, he broke his family's rules and is now being punished. He's about to be beaten with a ruler until he vomits blood. He hasn't come out yet, so I don't know how serious his injuries are. I don't know who to ask, so I wanted to consult!"
"I've heard about his family's rules a long time ago." Geng Jun was surprised when he heard his tone of voice, and it was not difficult to detect his dissatisfaction with the Xiao family's rules. Then he heard his decisive voice: "Miss Zhang, listen to me, the best way is to rush him to the hospital as soon as he comes out. If there are no fractures, you can drive him to the hospital yourself. If there are fractures, don't move him, call 120 ambulance immediately!"
Zhang Moyan remained silent. The other party waited for a moment, then urged for confirmation: "Miss Zhang, are you listening?"
"Oh, I'm here. I heard what you said. I just felt..." Zhang Moyan thought of how Xiao Xingyu didn't want anyone to pay attention to him last night and this morning, and said worriedly, "I'm worried that Teacher Xiao won't go to the hospital..."
"That's not up to him!" Geng Jun said firmly, and after a while he muttered to himself, "But he might do something reckless. So," Geng Jun swallowed, "If there's a fracture, call 120 whether he agrees or not! If it's just hemoptysis, and he doesn't want to see a doctor, give him oral Anluoxue, Ethamtrix tablets, or Yunnan Baiyao capsules. You can find which one you can buy at the pharmacy. They can all help stop bleeding in the lungs. As for external injuries, apply cold compresses within 24 hours to reduce swelling, and then apply Voltaren topical to relieve pain after 24 hours. To dissolve blood stasis and reduce swelling, use safflower oil, Die-Traction Oil, or Yunnan Baiyao tincture. You can use whichever one you can buy."
Zhang Moyan hadn't expected Dean Geng to be so detailed, and her brain was suddenly overwhelmed. "Dean Geng, this is a lot of information. Could you please speak more slowly and repeat it again so I can record it?"
Geng Jun: "No, my mobile number is also my WeChat ID. After you hang up, add me on WeChat and I'll send you the medication and precautions."
"That's great," Zhang Moyan said eagerly, "Thank you, Dean Geng!"
After briefly ending the call, Zhang Moyan immediately searched for Geng Jun's phone number on WeChat and sent a friend request.
The other party added him almost immediately, and within three minutes, he sent a long text message, which included care requirements within 24 hours and outside of 24 hours, a list of oral and topical medications, and finally a voice message reminding him to stay in bed and rest.
Zhang Moyan's heart trembled with emotion, both for the timely doctor's prescription and for the thrill of witnessing her two protagonists' real-life sweet moments. Dean Geng truly cared deeply about Teacher Xiao; work and meetings seemed to have completely slipped away. As she hurried out of Xiao's house to find a pharmacy, she couldn't help but imagine the ever-busy Dean Geng, leaving behind his white lab coat in a packed conference room, to write Teacher Xiao a prescription.
