"But there’s nothing majorly wrong with my body, my stomach doesn’t hurt, nor are my hands and feet cold."
Such cases were common for the doctor, who didn’t even suggest an ultrasound, but simply wrote a prescription and advised her to get the herbal medicine and take good care of herself.
Rong Shaoze, sitting to one side, bristled when he saw the doctor prescribe medication so hastily without arranging for an examination, and sharply said,
"What kind of doctor are you, prescribing medicine after just a few questions and not even arranging for a checkup? What if the prescription you wrote is wrong?!"
The doctor had never met Rong Shaoze and naturally did not know his status.
Moreover, since Tao Hua was away on a trip and Rong Shaoze had not asked him for any special attention, the doctor was also unaware of his relationship with Tao Hua.
And yes, his temper was quite bad.
Seeing that his medical skills were being questioned, the doctor, eyes wide with annoyance, retorted, "Am I the doctor or are you? I’ve seen countless patients, and cases like hers are the most common. I could write prescriptions with my eyes closed. Do I still need to do an examination?!"
Rong Shaoze’s gaze turned frosty, his expression darkening to something almost frightening.
The doctor stiffened, feeling apprehensive under that intense stare.
This man looked like someone not to be trifled with...
Fearing that Rong Shaoze might lose his temper, Lin Xinlan quickly took his hand, saying, "Let’s go, you should trust the doctor’s medical skills. Let’s get the medicine quickly; I don’t want to stay in the hospital."
"..." Rong Shaoze didn’t move, his eyes still coldly fixed on the doctor.
If it weren’t for Lin Xinlan speaking, he might have already stood up and thrown a punch.
Seeing him motionless, Lin Xinlan became even more anxious, "Are you going or not? If you won’t, then I’m leaving!"
She shook him off and stormed out of the consultation room, and sure enough, Rong Shaoze quickly followed her.
He caught her wrist and asked, dissatisfied, "Why are you running off?"
"If I don’t run, should I watch you start a fight with someone? I might even get caught in the crossfire. And really, could the doctor’s prescription possibly be wrong? If it were, Tao Hua’s hospital would have closed down long ago. You should trust Tao Hua’s standards for hiring people; he wouldn’t allow anyone without skills to work in his hospital."
Rong Shaoze couldn’t help but chuckle, "So you have that much faith in Tao Hua’s medical skills? You might be mistaken, perhaps he’s a quack doctor."
"Could a quack run the most famous gynecological hospital in B City?" she snapped at him irritably and turned to leave.
Rong Shaoze quickly caught up, wrapping his arm around her shoulder, forcefully trying to walk with her, but Lin Xinlan struggled a few times and then let him be.
After they picked up many herbal medicines, as they were about to leave the hospital, they saw medical staff rushing a patient in on a stretcher.
Lin Xinlan glanced over carelessly and then her eyes widened in surprise.
Wasn’t that Mother Zhou?
She hurriedly grabbed a nurse and asked anxiously, "Excuse me, what’s wrong with her?"
The nurse dropped the words impatiently: "Late-stage cancer!"
She turned back to Rong Shaoze and said, "Let’s not leave just yet; let’s find out about her condition first, then we can go."
The man was displeased, his face sullen, "Why do you care about her? Don’t forget, both her sons set you up. Even if you are kind-hearted, you shouldn’t be a pushover!"
"I know Zhou Xi and Zhou Yu have done wrong, but if they can realize their mistakes and mend their ways, they aren’t beyond redemption.
Zhou Xi is in prison now, Zhou Yu has disappeared, and Zhou Yun has passed away; she must be without a single relative by her side now.
