Chapter 484 - A Troublesome Patient (2/2)

…

There were no patients in Gao Yi's office at the moment. Xia Ruoxin opened the cover of the three-tier box and took out the different layers. There was a plate of sweet and sour fish, some stir-fried vegetables, and Mapo bean curd—which were all Gao Yi's favorites. She rushed over to the hospital as soon as she was done with the cooking.

It was a nice spread. Gao Yi could barely contain himself as he took the chopsticks and helped himself with a slice of fish. Xia Ruoxin had removed all the bones from the meat. Besides, she had chosen to buy this kind of fish because it had lesser bones. The meat melted in his mouth as he savored its freshness.

Gao Yi knew the sweet and sour fish that Xia Ruoxin had cooked was considered her specialty. He wondered where she learned to cook it; hers tasted so much better than the ones prepared by those chefs. This had easily become his favorite dish on any given day.

Feeling contented, he took another slice. However, just as he was putting it into his mouth, he heard a knock on his door.

”Doctor Gao, that Mr. Chu is asking for you. He said he's feeling some discomfort in his shoulder.”

The nurse said, clearly embarrassed. They were eating. Nevertheless, Mr. Chu was a very important patient in the hospital who was greatly valued and respected by the hospital director. Not to mention these rank-and-file employees.

The last name was Chu. Xia Ruoxin felt a gush of sudden discomfort in her heart. Could it be that man? If it was, what did he want? He knew about Gao Yi. Did he know anything about Rainy?

”Don't worry. It will be fine.” Gao Yi took his robe and put it on as he turned around and reassured Xia Ruoxin. ”I'll be back in no time. That patient is a bit crazy. He won't rest if he didn't create a few scenes in a day. I'll continue eating when I come back later.”

He couldn't bear to leave his favorite fish, and so he took the chopsticks and picked another piece to eat while he made his way to his patient. When he arrived outside Chu Lui's ward, he was the clean and professional doctor again.

He pushed the door open and walked to Chu Lui's bedside. At one glance, the man before him had a sullen expression. He had truly lost a lot of weight recently. However, anyone could tell he was very much alive with one look.

It was merely some superficial wound on his shoulder. With the amount of time he had been resting so far, he could be fully recovered no matter how severe his injury was.

”Mr. Chu, where are you feeling the discomfort?” Gao Yi took Chu Lui's medical chart from the table and read through it. Body temperature was normal; blood pressure normal. Everything seemed normal. Hmm, he might be putting on a pretense of feeling unwell.

Chu Lui simply lifted his eyes and threw a swift loathing look at Gao Yi who accepted it.

”I feel sick whenever I see you.”

”Oh, what a coincidence. The feeling is mutual. I am not very fond of you, too. I believe if you are to go home and recuperate, your recovery may be faster.” Gao Yi put on a professional smile. Compared to Chu Lui's icy expression, his looks put others at ease. Not everyone was in love with the domineering CEO. Gao Yi was a doctor and a warm person. They seemed to have arrived at a conclusion as to who had won or lost. At the very least, it had been determined on a woman's heart.

At least, there weren't any comparisons in the woman's eyes because they simply couldn't be compared.

Gao Yi ordered another round of routine check-ups for Chu Lui. Besides, the man was feeling silly and filthy rich right now. If he didn't spend some money, he might not be able to set himself at ease. Since this was what he wanted, he should spend more. When the money had been spent, he would feel better and get a discharge.

Gao Yi patiently carried out his duties as a professional doctor as he allowed Chu Lui to make his life difficult. Still, Chu Lui continued to nick and pick on him.

However, when he returned to his office after he was done, he realized the plate of fish had turned ice cold. Fortunately, Xia Ruoxin had placed it on the top of a heater so he wouldn't feel it had gone cold.

”Is that a troublesome patient?” Xia Ruoxin pretended to ask nonchalantly. In truth, she was terrified of Chu Lui. She didn't want him to cause any problems to Gao Yi.
