Chapter 23 Do You Know Too Late?
The disharmonious voice is made by Deng Shouyin, “Uncle, look, you just warned Doctor Liu to stay away from Li Yong who has been dismissed but they are dating now. That’s not a good thing!”
Deng Yitian is very angry that his authority of leadership is provoked. He comes towards Liu Lingyin, pats her on the shoulder, and then says in a cold voice, “Didn’t you say you have nothing to do with him? So what’s going on now? Are you dating?”
Seeing Deng Yitian, Liu Lingyin is startled and her eyes are full of panic. She stands up hastily and says faintly, “Director Deng, I... I...”
“It is no need to explain. Anyone who expelled from the Zhonghai First Hospital is the scrum of the medical field. The reason I reminded you was also for your own good. If you continue to be wrong-headed, you’ll pay for your actions!” Deng Yitian says coldly with his big round drooped face.
“Li Yong, I can’t imagine that you have the ability to hook up with Doctor Liu. What a luck for you!” Deng Shouyin says cynically with his malicious eyes.
Liu Xiaoyue wrinkles her curved eyebrows and says lightly, “They are just having dinner together. Maybe they are not lovers!”
“Aren’t they lovers? They must be lovers.” Deng Shouyin says with his stiff neck as if he is quarreling with others. His voice immediately attracts many people’s attention and affects other diners.
“No, it’s not what you think...” Liu Lingyin says in a low voice. She wants to explain but she doesn’t know how to explain.
“Doctor Liu, I can’t imagine you have such a bad taste. What’s the future for you with a doctor who has been dismissed?” Deng Shouyin doesn’t give Liu Lingyin an opportunity to explain at all, he has already determined.
Li Yong laughs because he suddenly finds that Deng Yitian and Deng Shouyin give him a chance when he doesn’t know how to invite Liu Lingyin to his clinic.
This is a golden opportunity! Li Yong will not miss it.
So he stands up and goes forward with a smile, gives Deng Shouyin a smack and says with a smile, “This is the result of your bad mouth.”
“Ah! Uncle, he hit me, he dares to hit me.” Deng Shouyin covers his painful face. He has no intention of hitting back but instead he steps back to Deng Yitian. He knows that he has no ability so he has no courage to hit Li Yong.
“Damn you, you dare to hit your leader? I’ll kill you.” Seeing his nephew being bullied, Deng Yitian becomes angry at once, he rushes forward recklessly to scold and attack Li Yong.
“You are the leader in the hospital, but out of the hospital, you are nothing.” Li Yong squints at him and becomes happier.
He watches Deng Yitian rushing over. He feels that Deng Yitian is so slow that he is itching to hit him. So he takes a step forward and then kicks straight out. Deng Yitian is kicked out to the ground and knocks over a table beside him. A dish falls on his head directly and the vegetable oil flows down her neck.
Li Yong wants to catch up and continue to hit Deng Yitian relentlessly. But the restaurant staff pours in, they are separated all of a sudden. Li Yong feels a little regretful.
Liu Lingyin’s mother comes back from the washroom excitedly. When she sees the mess, she asks with astonishment, “Lingyin, what happened?”
“Mom.” Liu Lingyin plunges into her mother’s arms and then cries sadly.
Liu Lingyin is very sad to see such a thing happen. It is the first time that she has invited guests to dinner and it is also the first time that she has had dinner in such a good restaurant. But Li Yong hit Deng Yitian and Deng Shouyin, she doesn’t know what to do.
Liu Lingyin heard that Deng Yitian has a bad reputation in the Zhonghai First Hospital. She didn’t want any trouble. But today, she is in trouble. Deng Yitian can’t do anything to Li Yong for Li Yong has not been in the Zhonghai First Hospital. But what can she do?
“You’re great.” Liu Xiaoyue comes to Li Yong, pats him on the shoulder and laughs.
Li Yong is surprised that he thinks Liu Xiaoyue and Deng Shouyin came here together, she should hate him in Deng Shouyin’s shoes. How could she support him?
Liu Xiaoyue seems to know Li Yong’s doubts, she laughs again, “I have to invite Director Deng to dinner for my work. But in fact, I don’t like him either.”
“I can hit him for you next time.” Li Yong suddenly understands.
“No, I don’t like violence.” Liu Xiaoyue shakes her head quickly.
Li Yong sees Liu Xiaoyue wearing a short skirt and silk stockings and then thinks, “Do you like seduction?”
The restaurant staff has comforted Deng Yitian and Deng Shouyin by this time. They are no longer shouting. It is an international restaurant. What they did just now is detrimental to the national image.
“If you have the courage, go out and fight again. I’ll kill you.” Deng Yitian points at Li Yong from a distance and grounds out.
Li Yong really wants to go out, but he is held back firmly by Liu Lingyin who has just stopped crying.
Deng Yitian turns to Liu Lingyin and says angrily, “As a member of the Zhonghai First Hospital, how dare you hit the leader of it? You are just waiting to be punished!”
“No, I dare not.” Liu Lingyin is frightened. However, Deng Yitian has turned away without hearing what she said.
The dinner finally breaks up, Li Yong sends Liu Lingyin and her mother home and then leaves.
In another place, Deng Shouyin and Deng Yitian are discussing how to retaliate. They can’t do anything to Li Yong, but it is easy for them to deal with Liu Lingyin. They transfer their hatred for Li Yong to Liu Lingyin.
It is the next morning that Li Yong receives Liu Lingyin’s call when he is busy at work in the Happy Clinic.
“Xiaoyong, I was dismissed by the Zhonghai First Hospital.” Liu Lingyin says in a slight and quivering voice, as if trying to restrain her grief and tears.
That’s so great. Li Yong almost cheers. However, on the other hand, he knows that Liu Lingyin has a deep feeling for the Zhonghai First Hospital. She must be very sad to be dismissed.
Therefore, Li Yong says slowly in a sympathetic tone, “There will be a bright future everywhere with your medical skills. If you want another job, please come to my clinic! The treatment is the same, and you can live in the clinic with your mother to save the house rent. If my clinic develops into a hospital in the future, you will be dean of the hospital.”
“Let me see.” Liu Lingyin calls in order to tell Li Yong that she wants to work in his clinic. But she is too embarrassed to open the mouth. As a doctor dismissed by the Zhonghai First Hospital, she deeply knows that her future is bleak. No matter where she goes, she might be refused because there is a stain on her file. She has to choose a small clinic.
“Doctor Liu, what else do you think? You lost your job because of my impulse yesterday. I’m sorry. Now I have a job for you. Come and join me, okay?”
“Xiaoyong, did you hit them on purpose yesterday?” Liu Lingyin is so smart and knows immediately when she thinks of Li Yong’s intention.
Li Yong is choked up by her words and he doesn’t know how to answer her. To tell the truth? After a moment of hesitation, Li Yong says slowly, “Doctor Liu, they were going too far at that moment so I couldn’t help it.”
“It’s always wrong to hit others.” Liu Lingyin sighs.
“Yes, Doctor Liu, I know I was wrong.” Li Yong says modestly.
“I will go to your clinic to have a look first!” Liu Lingyin says softly after a moment of silence.
“OK, I will call someone to pick you up in a minute.”
Li Yong calls Zhang Yurong right away after hanging up the phone. Then Zhang Yurong goes to Liu Lingyin’s home to pick her up.
Li Yong continues to work in the Happy Clinic. He still owes 300,000 yuan. He needs money and he needs to try his best to make money.
Now, his good reputation has been spread; some people have been looking for him from far away to see the Divine Doctor Li.
It’s amazing to many people that Doctor Li can treat and cure of diseases with only his eyes. Besides, it’s very cheap.
There are also reasons for the closure of Wang Hui’s Clinic, which makes more patients flock into the Happy Clinic. Now, a number of people seeing the doctor have been lined up on the road, and the number of people is still increasing gradually.
Li Yong is terribly busy now. He caused the dissatisfaction of patients just now only because he answered Liu Lingyin’s phone call. At the side of Li Yong, there are three nurses, Tian Baiqing, Tian Hailu and Tian Qiushuang.
Li Yong doesn’t write prescriptions any more now. What he needs to do is to direct three nurses to take the medicine directly and ask them to collect the consultation fees.
Now, Li Yong only treats the illness. He urges his clairvoyant vision ceaselessly to find the causes of diseases of different people. His eyes are sore after a long time. Gradually, he loses strength, feels dizzy and even can’t continue to work.
Only then does he find that it is laborious for him to use his clairvoyant vision for a long time. Besides, he is a little overwhelmed by the exhaustion of his internal strength.
So he has to stop for a while and goes upstairs to have a rest on the ground of having something to do.
He figures out that he treated 30 patients just now. That is to say, 30 patients a day is his limit in his present ability.
He thinks about it carefully again. Twenty of them were minor problems, he didn’t need to use his clairvoyant vision. The other ten had also no big problems, it was not necessary for him to see through their whole body. He would not be so tired if he did not use clairvoyant vision for minor problems or use less for general ones.
Then he thinks that it is really a waste for him to treat some minor illnesses like flu, diarrhea and dizziness every day with his clairvoyant vision and lots of methods of treatment.
Clairvoyant vision, “Do you know too late?”
Therefore, he decides to take a high-end route, specializing in difficult and complicated diseases, and the fee is certainly higher. Just like a moment ago, he saw through a person with diarrhea. But they only took the medicine for three days, totaling only a dozen yuan.
He feels sorry for his clairvoyant vision because it is very tired and he is also difficult to make money.
Li Yong falls asleep after making up his mind.
It is at dusk when he wakes up. He looks out of the window and is surprised to find that there are still a lot of people waiting in line to see the doctor downstairs. Are they so persistent? Are they waiting for him for the whole afternoon?
When he goes downstairs, he sees Liu Lingyin sitting in his seat and treating the patients.
Seeing that she is so dedicated and careful, Li Yong suddenly feels that she is very beautiful.
