Chapter 49 The Fanatical Pursuer
The story spread like wildfire in the hospital, and eventually became more and more outrageous.
The dean personally came out to greet Huo Jinchuan, but Huo Jinchuan completely ignored him. In the end, he could only ask Xia Ningxi what was going on.
"Have you seen this patient before? Why does he keep coming to you? Did you not make proper arrangements for him, or did you not cure his illness?"
Xia Ningxi replied, "I have treated this patient before; he probably has some mental issues."
"What do you mean by that?" the dean asked, puzzled.
Xia Ningxi said, "The first time he came to me was to treat a cigarette burn on my hand. When I saw it, the wound had already scabbed over."
"Isn't this ridiculous?!" The dean was furious; he rarely saw such an oddball.
Xia Ningxi: "So I don't want to see this patient."
"I've never seen such a ridiculous patient before. I think he's not here for treatment at all, but to see you, isn't he?" the hospital director asked.
Xia Ningxi said, "We don't know each other, we've only met twice."
"Then why does he keep bothering you?" the dean asked incredulously.
Xia Ningxi said, "He said he liked me and wanted to pursue me, but I rejected him."
"That's not surprising. You've been very busy at the hospital lately, so you can't neglect him. Try to coax him more when you have time. After all, the hospital is a place open to the public, and so many patients come and go every day. We can't expect all of us to revolve around him."
The dean treated Huo Jinchuan as Xia Ningxi's boyfriend, not only failing to offer any words of comfort but also simply dumping the matter on her to handle herself.
Xia Ningxi was also convinced.
After the dean left, she stormed back to the consultation room and, sure enough, saw Huo Jinchuan waiting there.
"Didn't Mr. Huo understand what I said earlier?" Xia Ningxi wasn't in such a good mood this time.
Huo Jinchuan held out his hand: "Let me see."
Xia Ningxi was filled with anger, but this sentence stuck in her throat. She had never seen such a shameless person!
They didn't even know each other, so why did this guy keep coming to cause trouble for her every few days?
Xia Ningxi wanted to curse.
Huo Jinchuan smiled and said, "I slipped and fell while taking a shower last night, and my arm hurts a lot. Can you take a look and see what's wrong?"
He vividly described the accident that happened last night, completely ignoring Xia Ningxi's temper, which was on the verge of exploding, and rolled up his sleeves to show her.
Xia Ningxi tried to calm herself down, walked over, and touched Huo Jinchuan's knuckles with her fair fingers: "Does it hurt here?"
"Ugh, it hurts."
Huo Jinchuan admitted it.
Xia Ningxi was full of profanities, but she could tell from touching his hands that there wasn't a single injury.
How shameless!
Xia Ningxi asked again, "Are you sure it hurts here?"
"That's right. Can it be cured? If not, I'll come back tomorrow." Huo Jinchuan raised his head, his charming eyes fixed on Xia Ningxi's beautiful face, and his tone softened.
Xia Ningxi smiled, gently placed her hands on Huo Jinchuan's left arm, and with a forceful twist, a crisp snapping sound was heard.
Huo Jinchuan's expression changed.
Xia Ningxi said seriously, "Your injury is quite serious. Your bones are dislocated. Let's get an X-ray. Pay on the first floor, thank you."
Huo Jinchuan had never been so speechless in his life.
With a dark expression, he asked, "Dr. Xia, is what you're doing appropriate?"
"What did I do? Didn't your hand hurt? I examined you and there is indeed a problem. If you don't trust my medical skills, you can go find someone else." Xia Ningxi said with a smile.
Huo Jinchuan glanced at his immobilized hand, then at Xia Ningxi, before getting up and leaving.
A group of people were watching outside the door.
Many people in the hospital had heard that a super handsome man had come to see Xia Ningxi for treatment, and his attitude was ridiculously enthusiastic.
Xia Ningxi already had a terrible reputation at the hospital, and now that another man had come knocking on her door, they almost thought it was one of Xia Ningxi's unknown suitors, deliberately using the guise of seeking medical treatment to seduce her.
The outcome was completely different from what everyone had expected.
Huo Jinchuan is indeed injured.
The payment, the filming, all the procedures were exactly the same, and after getting the results, I handed them over to Xia Ningxi.
Xia Ningxi smiled and said, "Mr. Huo, your injury is very serious. I think you need to have surgery and stay in the hospital for two days. Do you think that's feasible?"
When Huo Jinchuan said those words, he was already beginning to doubt Xia Ningxi's medical skills.
Xia Ningxi wasn't worried at all about offending anyone by saying this, and continued, "If you don't want to be hospitalized, that's fine too. We can have the surgery sooner, and I can cut open your flesh and re-set your bones. You can rest in the hospital for half a day and go home if there are no adverse reactions. There are many treatment options; you can choose according to your needs."
"You'll take care of me if I'm hospitalized?" Huo Jinchuan asked rhetorically.
Xia Ningxi said, "There are doctors and nurses who specialize in this area. I won't take care of you."
"Then there's no need," Huo Jinchuan refused.
Xia Ningxi said, "I have already told you about the treatment methods. Please consider them. There is no need to feel pressured. I am very good at surgery, so you can rest assured about that."
"No need, I'll come see you again tomorrow." Huo Jinchuan left with those words.
Xia Ningxi saw him off with a smile on her face.
Huo Jinchuan had never seen such a cunning woman.
After leaving the hospital and getting into the car, several of his underlings approached and asked, "Boss Huo, what happened to your hand?"
When they came with Huo Jinchuan today, he was a very healthy person.
Huo Jinchuan didn't speak. He placed his right hand over his immobile left hand and snapped the dislocated bones back into place.
"Oh my, did Master Huo ruin his hand just to see the famous Dr. Xia?" the underling asked in shock.
Huo Jinchuan kicked him out of the car, spitting out, "Get lost, what do you know?"
The henchmen exchanged glances, puzzled. They weren't lying; Master Huo had arrived perfectly fine, without a single scratch.
Huo Jinchuan rubbed his left hand, which had recovered completely, with one hand. It still hurt quite a bit. Thinking of Xia Ningxi's cunning smile, Huo Jinchuan thought that this woman was really interesting. No wonder Huo Nanxiao was so fond of her.
It's okay, there's plenty of time.
"Drive," Huo Jinchuan ordered the driver.
Xia Ningxi was standing at the window of the consultation room, where she could see Huo Jinchuan's car drive away. Only after it completely disappeared from sight did Xia Ningxi return to Huo Yuan's ward.
It was already noon when Huo Nanxiao returned from get off work on time, bringing his lunch with him.
The father and son were sitting together, and the scene was very kind.
She pushed open the door, not wanting to go in and disturb them, and quietly retreated.
"Come in." The man said without even raising an eyebrow.
Xia Ningxi's hand holding the door froze, and she braced herself and walked in.
"Who was looking for you just now?" The man's voice was icy cold.
Xia Ningxi raised an eyebrow and replied, "One patient."
