Chapter 14
In the ward filled with the pungent smell of disinfectant, Huo Changfeng slept quietly on the bed, with one hand exposed outside the quilt receiving an IV drip.
With Mu Qingxuan's eyesight, she could easily see the words on the IV bottle: "Conaflutamine".
She frowned and her face darkened.
Cui Lirong, who was guarding nearby, turned around and forced a smile on her slightly tired face.
She whispered, "Xuanxuan, you're here."
Cui Lirong's eyes were quite gentle.
After a night of observation, the doctor has confirmed that Huo Changfeng's condition has stabilized.
We just need to wait for Huo Changfeng to wake up and we will be completely out of danger.
And all this is thanks to Mu Qingxuan's medical skills.
If it weren't for Mu Qingxuan, Cui Lirong wouldn't even dare to imagine what the outcome would be now.
Mu Qingxuan pursed her lips and looked serious: "Mom, was this drip given by the doctor?"
"Yes. In the second half of the night, Changfeng kept making unconscious groans. The doctor said that his body was suffering from the aftereffects of the explosion which were transmitted to his nerves, so he prescribed some painkillers."
Cui Lirong was stunned, then immediately responded: "Is there a problem?"
“It’s a big problem.”
Mu Qingxuan moved closer with a stern face, took out a clean pair of medical gloves from the bedside table, and deftly pulled the sharp needle out from the back of Huo Changfeng's hand.
Cui Lirong's eyes widened and a scream got stuck in her throat.
"What are you doing?"
A strange voice sounded at the door of the ward.
A tall woman in a white coat and a mask walked in, looked at Mu Qingxuan's actions sternly, and shouted coldly: "Who allowed you to treat patients like this? Believe it or not, I will call the security comrades over immediately and take you, a bad element who is trying to steal money and kill people, to the police station!"
Mu Qingxuan put away the IV drip and wiped the back of Huo Changfeng's hand clean with medical alcohol and a sterile cotton swab.
Although she is a Chinese medicine practitioner, she has always known that it will do her good to learn more knowledge.
Therefore, Mu Qingxuan took time out in her previous life to practice Western medicine acupuncture techniques. For her, pulling out an IV needle was just a piece of cake.
How could it reach the level of "murder for money"?
Mu Qingxuan raised her eyes and looked over: "Comrade Doctor, you should provide some evidence when you speak. When did I want to kill someone?"
She's more like saving people.
Gao Liyue pointed at the IV drip on the bedside table and said, "You still say no? I saw you pull out the IV drip for treating the patient with my own eyes. Do you know that if the technique is not professional, it is easy to cause infection in the patient's wound?"
"Besides, that's medicine for treating patients. Why did you suddenly pull out the needle?"
Cui Lirong was also startled by Mu Qingxuan's action, but seeing Gao Liyue accusing Mu Qingxuan in such a cold voice, she subconsciously defended her and said, "Comrade doctor, is there some misunderstanding?"
"This is my daughter-in-law. She won't harm Changfeng."
Gao Liyue glanced at Cui Lirong and said bluntly, "It seems that you are the patient's biological mother, so how can you let her do whatever she wants and not even care about her own son's life?"
"If you are so unwilling to be treated by the hospital, then pack your clothes and leave as soon as possible to make room for other patients."
Cui Lirong's face turned pale.
She was rarely offended like this, and was obviously a little angry.
Gao Liyue didn't notice it at all. She raised her chin high and said disdainfully, "We doctors have worked so hard to save this patient. We don't want you to abuse him like this."
As she spoke, she suddenly thought of a possibility, and a glimmer of suspicion flashed in her eyes, "Could it be that you can't afford the medical expenses? Then I'll tell you in advance, even if you remove the needle now, you still have to pay the full medical expenses, you can't escape!"
"You guys seem to be dressed quite decently, why do you always do such shameful things?"
Gao Liyue looked up and down at Cui Lirong and Mu Qingxuan with disdain and rolled her eyes, with no intention of concealing her voice.
Cui Lirong's face darkened completely: "Doctor, please be careful with your words. When did we say we would not pay for the medical expenses?"
"If you weren't trying to avoid paying for the medical bills, then what did you do just now..."
"Comrade doctor!" Mu Qingxuan raised her voice slightly and interrupted Gao Liyue before she finished speaking.
"I remember that you are not the doctor who treated Changfeng. Where is the attending doctor who was on the operating table yesterday? Please call him over. I have something to discuss with him."
Of course she had her reasons for removing the needle from Huo Changfeng.
Although the woman in front of her was wearing a white coat, Mu Qingxuan had not seen her in the operating room yesterday. Her attitude was so bad and she humiliated and ridiculed her repeatedly.
In that case, there was no need for her to explain anything further to Gao Liyue.
Gao Liyue felt that this was a look down on her. "I am also a doctor. Even if you have any problem, you should ask us for permission before taking any action. How can you just pull out the needle? If something happens to the patient, don't blame us doctors and say that we can't cure the patient."
Seeing how cunning and disobedient these two people were, the more Gao Liyue looked at them, the more she felt that they might be troublemakers in the hospital.
Suddenly, the look of disgust in her eyes became more obvious, almost turning into substance and overflowing.
"What's going on? Why is there so much noise?"
The attending physician calculated the time and it was time to remove the needle from Huo Changfeng.
But before I entered the ward, I heard a quarrel at the door.
He scratched his head in confusion, but his eyes lit up the moment he saw Mu Qingxuan.
She was the girl who brought Huo Changfeng back to life yesterday!
"Doctor Xu, please come and judge this matter. This person took the initiative to remove the patient's needle. I said that they were harming the patient by doing this, but they refused to admit it. Their attitude was extremely bad."
Gao Liyue's facial features under the mask wrinkled in dissatisfaction.
She really didn't expect to encounter such an unreasonable patient on her first day at the military hospital.
Gao Liyue had thought that those who could be admitted to the military hospital were at least highly educated people, but she didn't expect that there would be such a shrew in the market.
"Took out the needle?"
Doctor Xu was stunned and a little confused.
Mu Qingxuan nodded directly and said frankly: "Doctor Xu, I was the one who removed the needle."
Gao Liyue fanned the flames: "Doctor Xu, look, she doesn't even have the slightest regret. This is really too frivolous."
Doctor Xu shook his head: "If Comrade Mu did this, she must have her reasons. We should believe her."
"The patient's injuries are so serious. We worked so hard to save a life from the hands of the King of Hell. We won't let her ruin it like this--" Gao Liyue said halfway angrily before she realized what Doctor Xu said.
She looked over in astonishment.
Doctor Xu's eyes were complicated. "She was the one who saved the patient. Strictly speaking, she is Director Huo's attending physician. How can you say she is abusing him?"
"W-what?" Gao Liyue was completely dumbfounded.
