Chapter Nineteenth: An Unexpected Encounter with an Old Classmate

  Wang Chenlong was slapped in the face by Wang Xu and returned to the office, hastily changed his clothes and left.

  No matter where, rumors always spread quickly. Although other doctors and nurses in the department didn't say anything, Wang Chenlong always felt that others looked at him with some disdain and ridicule.

  As soon as Wang Chendong walked out of the department and just stepped into the corridor, a voice suddenly rang out: "Dr. Wang, didn't we agree to have a few drinks together tonight?"

  Listening to this voice, Wang Chenlong slightly furrowed his brow and looked over to a not-too-distant place, only to see Chen Feng standing on the opposite side of the corridor waiting for him.

  "I don't seem to have much of a relationship with Dr. Chen anyway, let's just forget about the drinking." Wang Chenlong said with a faint smile.

  "Doctor Wang, you're too kind. I've admired you for a long time." Chen Feng walked up to Wang Chenlong with a familiar smile and said: "I also heard about what happened in the Chinese medicine internal medicine clinic this afternoon. That country bumpkin Wang Xu actually dared to slap Doctor Wang's face. You can swallow this anger, but I couldn't."

  "It's all for Wang Xu indeed." Wang Chenlong snorted coldly in his heart, and a sharp glint flashed across his eyes: "Hmph, Wang Xu, since that's the case, I'll make you look good. From today on, either you're in the internal medicine department of traditional Chinese medicine or I am, but not both."

  With a determined heart, Wang Chenlong smiled and exchanged a few words with Chen Feng, then they left the hospital together...

  Today it was Wang Xu's turn to be on night shift, generally speaking, the night shift is relatively easy. After dinner, Wang Xu first took Zhao Kai to check the ward, and then sat in the office thinking about Bai Zijie's condition.

  Last night when he was diagnosing Bai Zijie, he already had a clue, but the prescription was still being weighed and considered. Diabetes is also a relatively stubborn disease globally, although he has some confidence in treating Bai Zijie's illness, he must carefully consider it.

  Moreover, Bai Zijie's illness is absolutely not something that can be cured in a short period of time. If she doesn't take medicine for at least half a year, there will definitely be no effect. Medicine has three parts poison, and Wang Xu must carefully consider the dosage.

  Of course, Bai Zijie's illness is diabetes, also known as Xiao Ke Zheng in traditional Chinese medicine. However, the cause of the disease is spleen deficiency and dry heat. Targeting the root of the disease with medication, there is still a great opportunity for a cure.

  He stayed up until midnight, and after returning home, Wang Xu looked through the medical book again for a while, finally deciding on a prescription: 0.5 liang of ginseng and astragalus, 1 liang each of Ophiopogon japonicus and white peony, 8 fen each of Trichosanthes and Pueraria, and 7 fen each of Phellodendron and Anemarrhena.

  After writing down the prescription, Wang Xu washed up and went to sleep.

  The next morning, Wang Xu had just finished his breakfast and walked into the department when he felt that something was off about the atmosphere inside. The two young nurses at the door were looking at him with a somewhat strange gaze.

  King Xu, who was full of doubts in his heart, had just walked into the office when a surprised voice came over: "Doctor Wang, you've finally arrived, we've been waiting for you for an hour."

  Wang Xu looked over and only then realized it was the young man who had quarreled with Wang Chenlong yesterday afternoon. The young man held a silk flag in his hand, accompanied by his wife, but the child he had been holding in his arms yesterday was now standing on the ground, being led by the young woman, looking completely fine.

  Seeing this family, Wang Xu suddenly understood that the young man had indeed brought him a prize.

  Someone's kind intentions, Wang Xu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly led the family into the office to entertain them. Zhao Kai quickly brewed some tea.

  "Dr. Wang, your prescription is simply amazing! Yesterday when I got home, my child took one dose of the medicine and was better by that night. Look, now he's jumping around with energy!" The young man exclaimed to Wang Xu, hugging his little boy tightly.

  It's reasonable to say that the First Affiliated Hospital in Yuncheng has a certain reputation, and many doctors in the hospital have received silk banners from patients. Wang Xu is not an exception, but what's strange is that this young man had just made a scene in Wang Chenlong's clinic yesterday morning, and yet he came early today to present a silk banner to Wang Xu. Both Wang Xu and Wang Chenlong are doctors in the internal medicine department, which makes this all the more suspicious.

  Today, Wang Chenlong and Wang Xu are not on duty, so they are both sitting in the duty room. The young couple over there is chattering and praising Wang Xu, while Wang Chenlong's mood can be imagined from afar.

  The young man stayed in the duty room for more than half an hour before being sent away by Wang Xu. During this half hour, Wang Chenlong sat motionless in his seat, his face gloomy, as if sitting on pins and needles.

  With the incident of sending a banner, Wang Xu's reputation in the hospital rose again, while Wang Chenlong was almost discredited. Not to mention doctors from other departments, Wang Chenlong and Wang Xu were in the same shift, so it can be imagined how Wang Chenlong's following days would be.

  In the following days, when Wang Xu was on duty, the number of patients he received gradually increased, while Wang Chenlong's side decreased day by day. Without a doubt, Wang Chenlong became the stepping stone for Wang Xu to make a name for himself in the First Affiliated Hospital.

  Irony, sheer irony. At this point, Wang Chenlong not only regretted it a bit, but he had initially targeted Wang Xu on purpose. In fact, they didn't have any grudges against each other; he was just venting his frustrations because he couldn't stand how Wang Xu, the newcomer, quickly gained Zhang Yiming's recognition. This new colleague of his wouldn't even invite him to dinner when they were on shift together, which made Wang Chenlong seethe with anger.

  But things have developed to this point, it is obviously beyond Wang Chenlong's expectation. Now Wang Chenlong has undoubtedly become the biggest joke in traditional Chinese medicine internal medicine.

  Unconsciously, half a month has passed, and the young man who made a scene in the clinic and gave Wang Xu a banner the next day have also slowly faded away. No matter what fresh things are, they all have a time limit. During this period, the hospital had a new topic again.

  Every year at the end of June is the assessment for doctors with temporary positions in the hospital for more than two years to obtain a formal position, and other small things naturally become insignificant in the face of this major event.

  Starting from June 1st, qualified doctors began to sign up. The hospital's temporary staffing is around 500-600 people, and among them, more than 300 have been working in the hospital for over two years. However, only three of these individuals will be eligible for a permanent position, which gives you an idea of how fierce the competition is.

  Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Wang Xu. These days, apart from going to work normally, he also goes to give Bai Zijie a follow-up examination at night. After carefully considering the prescription, Wang Xu went to Xiangxiang Pavilion again with Han Yixue the next day, and now Bai Zijie has started taking medicine according to the prescription.

  Wang Xu Kai's prescription was exactly for Bai Zijie's spleen deficiency and dry heat, at the beginning of taking the medicine, he went to review every day, afraid that something unexpected would happen.

  That evening after work, Wang Xu still went to Xiangxiang Pavilion with Han Yixue. During this period of time, Wang Xu and Han Yixue had become close because of Bai Zijie's matter, and in the hospital, they were a small topic of conversation.

  For nearly half a month, Wang Xu and Han Yixue have almost become regular customers of Xiangxiang Pavilion, and because Wang Xu has treated Bai Zijie again, Boss Bai Nongxin is even more enthusiastic about Wang Xu.

  "Snow sister, Wang Xu brother you guys are here." Just as Wang Xu and Han Yixue walked into the restaurant, Bai Zijie came up to greet them with a smile.

  "Hehe, Bai Zijie, you look like you're in good spirits these past few days." Han Yixue pulled on Bai Zijie's hand, sizing her up from head to toe before speaking with a smile.

  "Yeah, I feel much better now, and I slept well at night too. Thanks to Brother Wang Xu." Bai Zijie said with a smile, leading Wang Xu and Han Yixue upstairs as she spoke.

  Because during this period, Wang Xu and Han Yixue almost always came, Bai Nongxin was fortunate enough to reserve the private room where Wang Xu sat for the first time, every night specially used to entertain Wang Xu and Han Yixue.

  "Huh? Wang Xu!" Wang Xu was following Bai Zijie walking upstairs when he suddenly heard someone calling him, and hastily looked up to see three young men in their twenties coming down from the staircase, one of whom was calling out to him.

  "Peng Shan!" Seeing the other's appearance clearly, Wang Xu was overjoyed. This Peng Shan was his roommate when he was in university in Kyoto, and their relationship had always been good. He hadn't expected to run into him here.

  "Haha, it's really you, kid." Peng Shan was still a bit uncertain earlier, but as soon as Wang Xu spoke, he confirmed his identity and walked up to him with a big smile, giving him a hearty pat on the shoulder.

  "Haha, what brings you to Yun City?" Wang Xu was also delighted, patting Peng Shan's arm and laughing: "This isn't a place for chatting, let's go to a private room and have a few drinks."

  Peng Shan and the other two had obviously just finished eating and Peng Shan had also drunk a lot of wine. However, when he met Wang Xu at this time, he was naturally happy and smiled as he called out to his two companions to go ahead first, while he went with Wang Xu to the private room.

  "Cough, cough, I didn't expect you to bring a beauty here for dinner, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to join in the fun." Only after entering the private room did Peng Shan discover that Wang Xu was with Han Yixue, and Bai Zijie was originally from the restaurant, Peng Qingshan had seen her earlier.

  "What nonsense are you talking about? This is my colleague Han Yixue, and I'm currently working at the First Affiliated Hospital of Yun City." Wang Xu scolded with a smile, making introductions to both Peng Shan and Han Yixue.

  "Hmm! You're pretty good, kid. You actually got into the First Affiliated Hospital of Yuncheng!" Peng Shan said with a smile as soon as he heard.

  "By the way, how did you end up in Yun City? I remember you went to Gaochuan Province after graduation?" Wang Xu asked.

  "I went to Gaochuan Province, where I met Teacher Liu Qiancheng in Gaochuan Province. I was fortunate enough to study medicine with him, and this time I came to Yun City with my teacher." Peng Shan said with a smile, mentioning Liu Qiancheng, his face revealed a hint of pride.

  "It turns out that you've become Liu Lao's apprentice." Wang Xu said with a smile: "This is a great joy, this meal is on you today." Liu Qiancheng had also heard of Wang Xu, who was a famous old Chinese doctor in Gaochuan Province and was of the same generation as Gao Xuemin. Peng Shan being able to learn medicine from Liu Qiancheng was actually quite good.

  "Cut, you were actually favored by Old Gao at first, but unfortunately you didn't want to become his apprentice. Who can blame?" Peng Shan said with a smile. He had a good relationship with Wang Xu and naturally knew about the situation between Wang Xu and Gao Xuemin. At that time, when he heard that Wang Xu refused to take Gao Xuemin as his master, he was amazed for a long time.

  "Liu Qiancheng Liu Lao has also come to Yun City, is it because of the Yunhua Group?" The two were talking when Han Yixue suddenly interrupted and asked.

  "Yunhua Group!" Wang Xu was taken aback and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Yunhua Group?"

  "Hmph, you don't even know this? You're still hanging out in Yun City?" Peng Shan looked at Wang Xu with disdain and explained: "The helmsman of the Yunhua Group, He Minhua, has contracted a strange illness and is currently searching for famous doctors everywhere."
