674 Waiting (2/2)
Dong Sheng was even more bewildered. He glanced at Ling Ran, and then at Zuo Cidian. ”Doctor Zuo, are you getting sick?”
As he spoke, he whipped out a tube of Mayinglong ointment from his pocket and asked, ”Do you need this?”
Zuo Cidian quickly shook his head. ”No, I'm okay…”
Both of them turned to look at Ling Ran in unison.
”I'm taking a look to see if there are patients with any ailments that are suitable for you to treat so that you get to put in some practice,” Ling Ran said.
Zu Cidian coughed a few times and said with a smile, ”Someone who doesn't know you might think that you are looking for a certain kind of patient so that you can teach me a certain skill.”
Ling Ran could not help but raise his chin and look at Zuo Cidian. He affirmed what Zuo Cidian just said. ”This is exactly what it is.”
Zuo Cidian froze for a moment. ”Then, why didn't we just stay in the emergency room?”
”There's a lot of doctors and patients in the emergency room, and you might not get your chance.” Ling Ran paused for a moment and continued, ”I feel that it would be more effective to teach you one on one.”
”Of course, certainly…” Zuo Cidian finally understood what was going on. Ling Ran was about to give him a private lesson.
When Zuo Cidian thought of this, he was no longer in the mood to have fun either. He raised his head and looked at the tourists before him with an anticipatory gaze.
The long fleet of tourists moved forward slowly, quietly, and safely.
”These stairs are really steep. It's easy for people to fall.”
”Do you think that there would be girls jumping down the Great Wall of China during an argument with their boyfriends?”
”There isn't even anyone with a stomach ache?” Zuo Cidian muttered. As he said this, he suddenly realized something. 'Why would I want there to be a patient with a stomach ache? Doctor Ling is not an internist.'
In the blink of an eye, Zuo Cidian shook his head. 'There might be something wrong with the liver or intestines of patients with a stomach ache… Hmm... it would be better if their liver is the faulty one, as Doctor Ling doesn't really deal with intestines…'
Dong Sheng gazed at Zuo Cidian's expression, and he felt like he was looking at a kind monk who cared a lot about the welfare of other people. He could not help but ask, ”Doctor Zuo, are you very worried about the tourists?”
”Hmm… I'm pretty worried.” Zuo Cidian nodded a little.
Right then, a young woman in front of them, who was standing on a crenel, suddenly yelled.
Immediately after that, the young women swayed and fell down.
”There's someone!” Zuo Cidian slapped his thigh and fixed his gaze on the young woman as he muttered, ”There's a high possibility that it's a Colles' fracture.”
”Colles?” Dong Sheng did not understand what was going on. ”Do you know her?”
”Colles' fracture.” Zuo Cidian took a deep breath, and he seemed relieved. He then looked at Ling Ran. ”Doctor Ling, does this mean that I get to learn how to become an orthopedist?”
Ling Ran nodded. ”Go ahead and take a look at what's going on.”
Zuo Cidian immediately squeezed through the crowd. He started imagining a beautiful future for himself. A rich, middle-aged orthopedist who had a car and a house. He would get to travel in business class coaches and stay in five-star hotels. He would also get to drink Maotai and eat pork trotters whenever he wanted to. He would be able to afford a driver, a babysitter, and a cook. He would also have a beautiful girlfriend and make his ex-wife regret her decision to leave him.
