Chapter 30 Can she cure children's illnesses?
Hearing Dr. Zhao's words, Murong Ting felt somewhat relieved and nodded slightly: "Okay."
There were no veins to be found in Murong Chen's hand, so Dr. Zhao had no choice but to insert the IV drip into his foot.
Lin Cheng led Dr. Zhao to the guest room next door to rest, while Murong Ting stayed by Murong Chen's side.
Murong Chen kept complaining of being cold all night.
Murong Ting piled blankets on him layer by layer, but it did not alleviate the pain.
As the first rays of sunlight streamed in at dawn, his IV drip was finished.
Dr. Zhao came over, removed the IV, and rechecked his temperature with a thermometer.
Looking at the thermometer, Dr. Zhao was speechless: "39.2 degrees Celsius, this..."
Murong Ting turned to look at him.
He quickly lowered his head: "Young Master Ting, the young master's temperature hasn't dropped; in fact, it seems to be rising. This shouldn't be happening, and I really can't find any reason..."
Murong Chen had several layers of blankets on him. He opened his eyes and looked at Murong Ting hazily, saying weakly, "Daddy, I'm cold."
After saying that, he fell into a deep sleep again.
Murong Ting gritted his teeth and punched the wall next to him.
With a loud bang, Lin Cheng and Dr. Zhao, who were standing nearby, were startled.
Lin Cheng couldn't help but say from the side, "Young Master Ting, should we find another doctor to take a look?"
"Call all the doctors from the top hospitals, I refuse to believe there's no one who can treat this patient!"
"yes!"
Throughout the morning, the neighborhood was bustling with people, and at least ten doctors came and went.
However, after examining Murong Chen, the doctors either spoke in a cryptic and incomprehensible manner or expressed their inability to help, failing to find a way to reduce Murong Chen's fever.
Enraged, Murong Ting smashed three vases.
Just as Aunt Zheng came in, a new vase fell to her feet.
The sound of shattering glass startled her, causing her to take a step back. "Oh dear, what happened!"
After all that effort, the young master still showed no improvement, and Lin Cheng's expression was not good either.
He waved casually at Aunt Zheng and said, "No need to cook today, the young master is sick."
Aunt Zheng's body stiffened slightly.
Ignoring Lin Cheng's words, she stiffly leaned forward and cautiously asked, "Young Master Ting, what illness does the child have?"
Murong Ting glanced at her but didn't say anything.
Aunt Zheng had never seen Murong Ting like this before; his eyes were bloodshot and his hair was disheveled.
He was indescribably dejected.
Aunt Zheng felt a pang of guilt for a moment, but she quickly suppressed it.
It was all for her own child, so it wasn't her fault.
Lin Cheng, who was standing next to her, felt that she was also concerned about the child. Seeing that Murong Ting did not speak, he whispered to explain to her, "The high fever has not gone down and has lasted all night."
"Is your body cold, but your head feels extremely hot?"
Upon hearing this, not only Lin Cheng, but also Murong Ting, who was standing next to her, suddenly turned to look at her.
She swallowed hard and repeated, word by word, what Kong Mengjiao had taught her: "My grandson had this problem a couple of months ago, it seems to be some kind of new virus..."
"How is your grandson now?" Lin Cheng asked quickly upon hearing this.
"Alright, you're jumping around like a madman!"
Lin Cheng and Murong Ting exchanged a glance.
Understanding what Ting Shao meant, Lin Cheng quickly asked, "Aunt Zheng, who treated your grandson?"
Aunt Zheng rubbed her hands together and said, "My daughter-in-law contacted a female doctor at Dongshan Hospital who treated me..."
"Dongshan Hospital? Isn't that a hospital under the Kong family's name? What's that doctor's name?" Dongshan Hospital is just a second-rate hospital in Jiangcheng, how could it have such a skilled doctor? Lin Cheng asked curiously.
"I think her name is Kong Meng or something..."
"Kong Mengjiao?"
"Yes, yes, that's the name!"
Lin Cheng: "..."
Surprisingly, his casual remark actually came true!
Kong Mengjiao is the second daughter of the Kong family. She studied medicine and became a doctor in her family's hospital after graduation. However, it is said that she is arrogant and does not often see patients.
I thought she was all show and no substance, but I didn't expect... she actually has some real skills?
Lin Cheng subconsciously looked at Murong Ting.
Murong Ting, standing to the side, pondered for a moment before speaking, "Bring her here."
Lin Cheng said somewhat awkwardly, "Young Master Ting, are you really going to see her? This Miss Kong is, after all, a member of the Kong family, and she's known for her gossip. If she sees the young master, wouldn't that be the same as announcing to the whole city that you have a child!"
Murong Ting glanced at Lin Cheng: "We secretly raised the child back then mainly to keep Kong Wange away. Now that she has met the child, there is no need for us to hide it anymore. Otherwise, do you have any other ideas?"
Lin Cheng: "...No"
In his memory, Kong Mengjiao, this delicate young lady, had coveted Ting Shao quite a bit before.
In comparison, he still preferred dealing with the young mistress.
Alas, it's a pity that the young mistress grew up in the countryside and doesn't know anything about medicine!
...
The Kong Residence.
Kong Mengjiao has been preparing ever since she received the message from Aunt Zheng last night.
Sure enough, the phone rang right after she finished breakfast.
Looking at Assistant Lin's caller ID, a confident smile appeared on her face.
The car drove all the way to Ming Shi Huating.
From a distance, Kong Mengjiao saw Lin Cheng waiting for her at the entrance of the residential area.
She couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
She knew this neighborhood.
A 200-square-meter apartment costs more than her 400-500-square-meter villa.
Those who can live here are either rich or noble; this is a residential area that countless people in Jiangcheng dream of.
However, right now, she can not only enter openly and legitimately, allowing the Kong family to develop further, but she can also win the favor of Young Master Ting in one fell swoop!
The car door opened, and Lin Cheng went to greet her: "Miss Kong, this way please."
He took Kong Mengjiao upstairs.
On the way up, Kong Mengjiao had already prepared her emotions.
Upon entering the room and seeing Murong Ting, she feigned anxiety, "Brother Ting, Assistant Lin has already told me everything. How is Xiao Chen?"
How did she know the child's name?
Murong Ting was taken aback, assuming it was Lin Cheng who said it, and politely replied, "The high fever won't go down. You should take a look first. Aunt Zheng said you cured her granddaughter before, and she had similar symptoms."
"Well, it was all by chance. I happened to have heard about that kind of illness in a teacher's class... I need to see if Xiao Chen has the same illness to find out."
Calling your brother-in-law "brother" shows a very low moral character!
Lin Cheng, who had already gotten goosebumps from the girl's sweet voice, quickly said, "Then what are we waiting for, Miss Kong, please come on over."
Kong Mengjiao first pretended to examine Murong Chen, then turned to him and said, "Brother Ting, this illness is similar to that of Aunt Zheng's granddaughter. I can cure it."
Upon hearing this, Murong Ting solemnly said, "If you can cure Xiao Chen, the Murong family will reward you handsomely."
Kong Mengjiao gave him a reproachful look, "Brother Ting, you know I don't care about these things. A doctor's heart is benevolent, and saving lives is my duty! Besides, Xiao Chen is my own nephew, how could I not save him, right?"
After she finished speaking, she stared intently at Murong Ting's reaction.
