City’s Best Divine Doctor

When Ye Qiu walked out of Xia Lan’s office, the female secretary finally came in and saw that Chairman Xia’s face was a little flushed.

Just now, Xia Lan had planned to go out for a meal with Ye Qiu to thank him for helping her and her daughter, but Ye Qiu hadn’t stayed.

He drove toward the eastern university town because Ling Fei needed to see him about something.

He drove to the gate of the Normal College.

He waited there for a while and saw Ling Fei come out in a thick down jacket, with a scarf wrapped around her neck—the scarf was the one Ye Qiu had given her last year.

"Ye Qiu."

As soon as Ling Fei came over, she called out anxiously.

"Get in the car first."

It was seven or eight degrees above zero, not really that cold, but for most people it was still a bit hard to bear.

When she got in the car, Ye Qiu asked, "You just said you needed me for something—what is it?"

"My grandma on my mom’s side collapsed from illness. It’s really serious. I want to go with you to see her."

Ling Fei’s grandmother?

She had to be seventy or eighty by now.

"How old is your grandma?"

"She’s just about seventy this year."

In the past, because her parents didn’t get along, Ling Fei’s parents rarely went back to Lingjia Village. Usually it was just her and her mother, Zhou Xiaolan, who might go visit her maternal grandparents.

Now her parents had reconciled and there was no problem with their relationship anymore. A while ago they suddenly heard that her grandma had fallen ill; when they informed her parents, Ling Fei’s parents had already gone to see her several times.

"Have you eaten?"

"Not yet."

Ling Fei had just finished class.

"Then let’s get lunch first."

For Ye Qiu, no illness was something he needed to worry about.

He drove to a nearby restaurant and the two of them went in to eat first.

After they finished eating, they drove off.

Ling Fei’s parents were also in Jinling, in a relatively out-of-the-way rural area in Jiangnan, Jinling. It didn’t even count as a village-in-the-city, it was just countryside.

Though it might be demolished and redeveloped in the future.

They arrived at a hospital near that village, which was actually just an ordinary secondary-level Class A hospital.

Once the car was parked, as Ye Qiu and Ling Fei got out, they saw Ling Zhengwei and Zhou Xiaolan.

"Ye Qiu, good that you’re here. Go in and take a look at Ling Fei’s grandma’s condition."

Ling Zhengwei knew Ye Qiu’s medical skills were good.

They went inside.

They came to a standard ward where an elderly woman was lying in bed on an IV. Judging from her age, she really was around seventy.

Beside her was a young woman who looked much younger than Zhou Xiaolan, with the air of a young married woman.

"Auntie." Ling Fei greeted her younger aunt, Zhou Xiaojv.

In the countryside, people used to name kids very casually. Her mom was called Zhou Xiaolan, and her younger aunt was called Zhou Xiaojv.

And her younger uncle was called Zhou Xiaoshan.

But right now, only her younger aunt was here.

Ye Qiu examined the elderly woman first and asked, "Is this pneumonia?"

"Ye Qiu, the doctor said it’s pneumonia, very serious. If it doesn’t get cured, it could turn into a lung abscess," Zhou Xiaolan said.

A disease like pneumonia can also infect young people, and in severe cases might lead to tuberculosis.

And elderly people are prone to senile pneumonia.

There are many causes of pneumonia, such as bacteria (pneumococcus, alpha-hemolytic streptococcus, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, green pus bacillus, etc.), viruses (coronavirus, adenovirus, influenza virus, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, etc.), fungi (Candida albicans, aspergillus, actinomycetes, etc.), atypical pathogens (such as legionella, mycoplasma, chlamydia, rickettsia, toxoplasma, protozoa, etc.), and physical and chemical factors (radiation, aspiration of gastric acid, drugs, etc.). Anatomically, it can be divided into lobar pneumonia, lobular pneumonia, and interstitial pneumonia. In terms of course, there are acute pneumonia, protracted pneumonia, and chronic pneumonia.

In traditional Chinese medicine, this kind of illness falls under the categories of wind-warmth, pneumonia with wheezing cough, "Ma Pi Feng" and so on.

It was probably because the elderly woman’s constitution had declined and wind pathogens had invaded.

Especially in the late autumn and early winter season, the elderly and children are very susceptible to this type of disease.

For example, children who cough and catch colds for long periods are also prone to pediatric pneumonia.

It was just that this elderly woman’s condition was more complicated.

Of course, this wasn’t a fatal illness.

Even if Ye Qiu didn’t treat her, other doctors could still cure it, as long as she was transferred to some place with better medical skills.

"Ye Qiu, how is it?" Ling Fei asked anxiously.

"Don’t worry, it’s just a minor illness."

Minor illness?

As soon as Ye Qiu said that, Ling Fei naturally believed him, but a young man in his thirties wearing a white coat came in behind them and asked, "You’re a doctor too?"

"I study medicine."

Ye Qiu replied.

He really did study medicine, at Jinling University’s Clinical Medical School—it was just that he rarely went to class nowadays.

Of course, those classes were essentially useless to him.

"So you can treat patients?"

The young man asked.

Who was this?

Why did he sound so aggressive when he questioned him?

Ye Qiu didn’t treat patients like ordinary doctors did, but whether it was a terminal illness or anything else, he could cure it.

"Ye Qiu can cure cancer patients," Ling Fei said.

Cancer patients?

The young doctor was even more skeptical.

Ye Qiu couldn’t be bothered dealing with this young doctor—he’d seen this type of person plenty of times.

"Uncle Ling, better have Ling Fei’s grandma transferred to the Affiliated Hospital. I’ll treat her there myself, and she’ll be cured in under two days. The level here is a bit lacking."

How could a secondary hospital possibly compare to a tertiary hospital?

What’s more, Ye Qiu didn’t know that Ling Fei’s younger aunt, Zhou Xiaojv, had brought her mother here largely thanks to this classmate’s help—that very same young male doctor.

Affiliated Hospital?

The costs over there would be much higher.

"Sis, the Affiliated Hospital is way more expensive, and we don’t know anyone there." In a hospital, if you don’t have familiar doctors or patients to help out, things can really be a hassle.

"Auntie, Ye Qiu knows the director Zhou of the Affiliated Hospital," Ling Fei added.

Of course, Zhou Xiaojv knew who Ye Qiu was; she’d heard of him long ago.

She’d just never met him before. She’d heard that Ye Qiu had taken out several million for Ling Zhengwei and his wife to build their new villa.

Back then those two had divorced, and now they’d patched things up.

The young male doctor was still somewhat unconvinced. Ye Qiu was just a medical student—how could he possibly know the director Zhou of the Affiliated Hospital?

Ye Qiu didn’t bother explaining. He simply took out his phone and called Zhou Peng, asking him to arrange a private ward.

In fact, Ling Fei’s grandma was not only suffering from pneumonia—she had other conditions that also needed treatment.

"We’ll head to the Affiliated Hospital first. You bring Ling Fei’s grandma over there," Ye Qiu said.

As he and Ling Fei walked out, the ordinary ward was left with only the Ling Zhengwei couple, Zhou Xiaojv, and that young male doctor.
