Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1272 An unexpected encounter

Although the operation was very successful and the critical period has been successfully passed, Wang Jiancheng has been in a strange state of mental confusion since his recovery. The doctor said that his symptoms are somewhat similar to post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD for short, which refers to an individual facing abnormally strong mental stress, mainly manifested by symptoms of trauma re-experience, increased alertness, and avoidance or numbness symptoms.

But what is strange is that generally speaking, PTSD patients usually develop the disease three to six months after recovery, but Wang Jiancheng developed this strange mental symptom just after waking up. The CT scan has preliminarily ruled out craniocerebral injury. It is currently judged that Wang Jiancheng's experience has caused him mental trauma that is no less than physical trauma.

Wang Zhengdao immediately contacted the best brain expert in the country to come to Dongzhou for consultation. The brain expert also said that he had no solution and suggested observation. Perhaps as the body recovers, this strange mental condition will return to normal.

He Wanying thought of Xu Chunliang. Although she had come into contact with many Chinese medicine practitioners, the truly amazing one was Xu Chunliang, a young man who had never been a doctor. So she asked Xu Chunliang to go and see Wang Jiancheng, hoping that it would be helpful to her brother-in-law.

After Xu Chunliang arrived at the affiliated hospital and parked his car, he first went to the flower shop in the hospital. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a familiar figure.

Mei Ruxue was picking flowers. She also came to visit Wang Jiancheng.

After Mei Ruxue had chosen the flowers, she heard a voice behind her saying, "Give me the same ones as hers, and I'll pay for them."

Mei Ruxue turned to look at Xu Chunliang, her expression calm and she said calmly: "It's better to pay separately, each of them represents their own feelings."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Why do we have to distinguish so clearly? We are all looking at the same person. If you don't mind, we can just give each other a bouquet of flowers."

Mei Ruxue said, "I mind." She went to the cashier to pay, and then she remembered something: "You'd better not choose the same thing as me."

Xu Chunliang said, "Okay, since Secretary Mei dislikes it, I'll just take a fruit basket."

Xu Chunliang took a fruit basket and paid the bill. He saw Mei Ruxue had already walked away. Judging from her behavior, she was probably trying to avoid suspicion.

Xu Chunliang did not chase after her. He carried a fruit basket to the ward building where Mei Ruxue was still waiting for the elevator. There are many encounters in life that you cannot avoid just because you want to.

Mei Ruxue was holding flowers, and Xu Chunliang came to her side with a fruit basket and said with a smile, "What a coincidence."

Mei Ruxue said nothing. Was it a coincidence? She didn't think so. She had expected to have to deal with this guy since she returned to Dongzhou.

When lunch was about to be delivered, the elevator was particularly crowded. The two waited for two groups before entering the elevator. It was already full, and people outside were still squeezing in. The elevator operator was not happy and shouted, "Stop squeezing, wait for the next one. If you squeeze in, no one can get in."

The two people on the outside retreated unwillingly, and the elevator door finally closed. The elevator was now like a can of sardines, with people crowded together, face to face. Xu Chunliang stuffed the fruit basket to Mei Ruxue. Mei Ruxue understood what he meant and took it reluctantly. Xu Chunliang used his body and arms to form a barrier around her, supporting and protecting her.

Mei Ruxue wanted to turn her face away from Xu Chunliang, but when she turned halfway, she touched Xu Chunliang's body. After all, the space was too small. In order to avoid further contact, she could only return to her original position, so that the two of them could only stand face to face.

Mei Ruxue's expression became unnatural and she avoided Xu Chunliang's gaze. Xu Chunliang just looked at her with a smile and tried to help her gain some space to prevent her from being squeezed by the people around her.

Time passed slowly and awkwardly. Mei Ruxue felt a little regretful that she should not have chosen to take the same elevator with him. She was even a little worried that Xu Chunliang would take this opportunity to do something impolite to her. After all, he was a very bold man.

I took a quick look at Xu Chunliang and found that his attention had been diverted. He was looking at a child in his mother's arms and made a face, but the child was frightened by his big beard and burst into tears.

The woman holding the child looked at Xu Chunliang, but she was angry but dared not say anything.

Mei Ruxue said: "You scared the baby."

Xu Chunliang sighed and said, "I thought I looked friendly."

Several people around laughed at the same time, and Xu Chunliang also laughed.

The elevator swayed and finally stopped on the 17th floor. Xu Chunliang protected Mei Ruxue and walked out. After leaving the elevator, he took the fruit basket.

Mei Ruxue noticed that Xu Chunliang seemed to have changed in some way, but she couldn't tell exactly where. He seemed to have become more polite, and his smile was not as bright as before. Perhaps he had not yet recovered from the grief of losing his grandfather.

Xu Chunliang said, "If we go this way, they will definitely think we came together. Why don't you go first and I'll go later."

Mei Ruxue said calmly: "That's not necessary. You can't control other people's thoughts."

Xu Chunliang nodded and said, "You are right."

Mei Ruxue asked: "Have you told Mr. Ye about this?"

Xu Chunliang said, "I was just hesitating. Secretary Wang told me not to make it public, but the three of you are so close, if I don't say it, I'm sure you'll blame me in the future."

Mei Ruxue said: "How about this, I'll tell Sister Qingya."

Xu Chunliang nodded. It would be best if Mei Ruxue conveyed this matter. Wang Jiancheng was staying in the intensive care unit, and there were people on duty outside. This was all arranged by Wang Zhengdao. Not everyone could come to visit him casually.

Mei Ruxue had contacted He Wanying in advance and reported her identity, and Xu Chunliang followed her into the ward smoothly.

He Wanying got the news and waited in the corridor in advance. When she saw the two people appear, He Wanying asked, "Are you here together?"

Mei Ruxue shook her head and Xu Chunliang nodded.

He Wanying was not in the mood to find out the truth. She sighed and said, "Jiancheng's mood is very unstable. Sometimes he cries, sometimes he laughs."

Xu Chunliang thought to himself that no one would be in a good mood if they were in his place.

Mei Ruxue asked if Wang Jianming was here. He Wanying told them that Wang Jianming had just left not long ago. After all, there were still many things waiting to be dealt with in the city.

The two followed He Wanying to the outside of Wang Jiancheng's ward. Even with permission from his family, they were not allowed to enter and could only observe the situation through the window.

Wang Zhengdao stayed by his son's bedside the whole time. After taking the sedative, Wang Jiancheng finally fell asleep. Wang Zhengdao looked at his son and saw that there was obviously a piece missing under the quilt. Blood is connected to heart, and he would rather this happen to himself.

He Wanying entered the ward and told him the news that Xu Chunliang and Mei Ruxue were coming.

Wang Zhengdao frowned and said, "Why tell them? If the Qiao family knew about this, they wouldn't be able to hide it from the old man."

He Wanying didn't say anything. In fact, this matter could not be concealed at all. Wang Zhengdao repeatedly reminded her to keep it a secret from the old man, mainly because he was afraid that the old man would be frightened. But such a big thing would eventually be known by Mr. Wang.

Wang Zhengdao turned around and glanced out the window: "Are Jiancheng and Xu Chunliang doing well?"

He Wanying said: "I asked him to come and help. His medical skills..."

"No need." Wang Zhengdao's words made He Wanying a little embarrassed, but he also realized that his tone made He Wanying uncomfortable, so he sighed and said, "I have my own arrangements, please let Mei Ruxue come in."

He Wanying felt quite helpless. The two of them came here together, but she let Mei Ruxue go in and left Xu Chunliang outside. This kind of differential treatment was too obvious. The key point was that Xu Chunliang was invited by herself, and Wang Zhengdao seemed to be expressing his displeasure with her in this way.

After He Wanying left, she asked Mei Ruxue to go in. Everyone was smart, so Xu Chunliang didn't have to go in. If He Wanying hadn't invited him, he definitely wouldn't have come so early. Xu Chunliang was very considerate and smiled, "Secretary Mei, please help me take the fruit basket in. I won't go in. It's not good to have too many visitors."

Mei Ruxue nodded, knowing that he said that because he was afraid of embarrassing He Wanying, and took Xu Chunliang's fruit basket and went in.

He Wanying stayed outside. She apologized, "I'm sorry, Second Uncle was deeply affected by Jiancheng's incident. He believes in Western medicine more."

Xu Chunliang smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter." He knew Wang Zhengdao's situation very well. Why did he trust Western medicine more? Wang Zhengdao's own illness was cured by traditional Chinese medicine. He didn't trust himself, or he had already asked someone else.

He Wanying said, "Chunliang, Old Wang doesn't want this matter to have too big an impact."

Xu Chunliang said, "I understand. I won't tell anyone else, but I personally think that we should keep a normal mind when dealing with this matter. Anyway, it has already happened, and we can only think about how to solve it. Don't you agree?"

He Wanying nodded. At this time, someone else came to visit. It was Huang Youlong, the chairman of Mingde Group.

As soon as Huang Youlong appeared, Xu Chunliang's previous doubts were immediately answered. Wang Zhengdao had indeed invited an expert, and this person was Huang Youlong. It was Huang Youlong who helped Wang Zhengdao to remove the ghost bat poison. He obviously had more confidence in Huang Youlong's medical skills than his own.

Huang Youlong didn't expect to meet Xu Chunliang here. He took the initiative to walk towards Xu Chunliang and said, "Director Xu, you are here too."

Xu Chunliang said, "Mr. Wang and I are good friends." He couldn't say that it was He Wanying who asked him to come and treat Wang Jiancheng.

Huang Youlong sighed and said, "Mr. Wang was in his prime, but he never expected to meet with such a disaster." He greeted He Wanying again and took the initiative to tell her that he had come all the way from Seoul to treat Wang Jiancheng.

He Wanying felt more and more unhappy. Second Uncle Wang Zhengdao had not even mentioned him, lacking the minimum respect for the couple. However, He Wanying did not show her displeasure. She said softly, "You guys chat first. I'll go in and talk."

Huang Youlong then said to Xu Chunliang: "I have heard about Mr. Xu's story. I will go to his grave to pay my respects someday."

Xu Chunliang said, "That's thoughtful, but my grandfather likes quietness." In Xu Chunliang's mind, Huang Youlong was also one of the key suspects.
