Chapter Six: Humiliation at the Hospital

Xu Zirui waved his hand.

"I'm fine, you can go now."

He Yuqing's pretty face was full of anxiety.

"How could you be alright! Look how much sweat you've put on, let's go."

She hailed a taxi and personally took Xu Zirui to the hospital.

Since this was an old ailment, my colleagues at the hospital conducted a brief examination and then began treatment.

Xu Zirui looked at He Yuqing, his face pale.

"Qingqing, you should go back first. I'll be fine here."

He Yuqing shook her head stubbornly.

"No, you can't be short-staffed here. I'll stay with you; I'm free anyway."

Xu Zirui couldn't refuse any longer and had no choice but to agree.

He Yuqing stayed with him until the end of the treatment. In the meantime, she bought some liquid food for Xu Zirui so that his stomach would feel more comfortable.

"Zirui, eat less, remember to eat smaller meals more frequently."

"Thank you."

A hint of self-mockery flashed through Xu Zirui's mind.

She had taken care of Jiang Xin for seven years, but it seemed that Jiang Xin had never done anything for her, even something as ordinary as this.

The thought of this intensifies the pain in my heart.

After the treatment, Xu Zirui sat in the hospital corridor, his pale complexion finally showing some improvement.

But then, He Yuqing suddenly reached out her delicate hand and grabbed him, her eyes full of tenderness.

"Brother Zirui, promise me you won't drink anymore. As a doctor, you know how much alcohol puts on your body."

Xu Zirui nodded slightly.

"Well, I see."

At that moment, a colleague in a white coat ran over, looking very anxious.

"Dr. Xu, Mr. Zhang's condition has worsened and he needs immediate surgery. The hospital director has personally requested that you be the surgeon!"

Mr. Zhang, the founder of the group, was a well-known figure in Jinghai many years ago.

He later became passionate about charity work, helping many impoverished people, truly deserving of his reputation as a highly respected figure in Jinghai.

Xu Zirui weakly got up.

"Okay, I'll go."

He Yuqing quickly pulled him back.

"Brother Zirui, your body simply can't take it anymore! You need to rest properly!"

Xu Zirui's colleagues also noticed that something was wrong with him.

"Dr. Xu, are you alright? Should I go and talk to the hospital director about this..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Zirui interrupted him.

"No need, I can handle it."

“I have been responsible for following up on Mr. Zhang’s condition. I know his situation best, so I have to do this.”

He turned and glanced at He Yuqing.

"I'm fine, you can go back now. We can keep in touch later."

Xu Zirui quickly put on the white coat handed to him by his colleague, turned around and left. He Yuqing watched his back, her eyes gradually losing focus.

The emergency room was already surrounded by people from the Zhang Group; looking around, they were all veteran figures.

Several familiar faces have even appeared on television.

One of the men with a resolute face is Zhang Lao's biological son, Zhang Shengtian, who is also the current controller of the Zhang Group!

Seeing Xu Zirui arrive, he hurriedly went to greet him.

"Dr. Xu, you've come! I'm entrusting my father to you. You must save him!"

Xu Zirui responded with an affirmative look.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best."

Suddenly, Zhang Shengtian sensed something was wrong.

"Dr. Xu, are you feeling unwell? You look terrible. Can you still perform the surgery?"

There was a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

As we all know, performing surgery is not only a technical skill, but also a physically demanding task.

The surgical procedure requires the attending physician to be highly focused and cannot afford the slightest deviation; otherwise, the consequences would be dire.

Xu Zirui smiled.

"Don't worry, I know my own body."

"Dr. Xu, I shouldn't pry into your personal life, but if anything happens to my dad, I'll never forgive your hospital!"

The atmosphere immediately dropped several degrees; this was a blatant threat!

Xu Zirui smiled and shook his head as he walked into the operating room. The whole process was thrilling and exciting.

We forced him to take several bottles of glucose halfway through, and that's how he managed to hold on.

The surgery was successfully completed, but his physical condition is now worse, with large beads of sweat constantly appearing on his forehead.

Zhang Shengtian cupped his hands in greeting.

"Dr. Xu, I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now. Please don't hold it against me."

Xu Zirui waved his hand.

"It's okay, I understand how you feel."

Zhang Shengtian handed over a business card.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Xu, for saving my life. If there's anything I can do to help you in the future, please don't hesitate to come to me."

Xu Zirui didn't really care about the business card, but he accepted it anyway so as not to embarrass the other party.

"it is good."

Just as I was about to go back to rest, a teasing voice rang out.

"Wow, Dr. Xu is really dedicated to his job. He just finished a date with his girlfriend and he's already coming to work."

Looking back, the person who came was Meng Chengze.

His hand was still linked with Jiang Xin's arm, in a very intimate manner.

Xu Zirui frowned slightly, a pang of pain shooting through his heart once more.

But Meng Chengze's tone was full of sarcasm.

"To make sure Xinxin is alright, I decided to bring her to the hospital for a checkup. After all, it wouldn't be worth it if someone wasn't careful and caused long-term problems with her legs."

The meaning of those words couldn't be clearer; the person in question was Xu Zirui.

However, Jiang Xin's mind was not on that at all; she kept looking at Xu Zirui's weak face.

The beads of sweat on his forehead were clearly visible, and his face was paler than ever before.

Just as she was about to ask a question, her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Meng Chengze.

To avoid arousing suspicion, I didn't say the words that were on the tip of my tongue.

Xu Zirui coughed lightly.

"You all see, I won't bother you anymore."

Meng Chengze reached out and stopped him.

"Wait a minute, you've been taking care of Xinxin all along, how can you be absent from this final checkup?"

"Besides, Dr. Xu is a highly skilled doctor, and I trust you to treat me. After all, we're getting married soon, and we can't afford any mishaps."

Upon hearing the word "marriage," Xu Zirui felt as if his heart had been violently clenched!

Even though his face was expressionless, the pain in his heart could not be ignored.

Meng Chengze seemed to enjoy this feeling and continued to speak.

“You know Xinxin’s condition best. If anything goes wrong during the examination, I can discuss it with you.”

It was called a discussion, but it was really no different from an interrogation.

Seeing Xu Zirui's weak face, Jiang Xin couldn't bear it.

"Cheng Ze, don't make things difficult for him. Let's have someone else check him."

Meng Chengze shrugged.

"Alright, since Dr. Xu isn't going to give us face, then let's just forget about it. Considering how many years he's taken care of you, we won't force it."

"Dr. Xu, you absolutely have to come for a couple of drinks when we get married!"

He keeps talking about taking care of me for years and getting married, but his intentions are treacherous.

Besides, it was in a corridor, surrounded by people.

It's worth noting that Xu Zirui and Jiang Xin's relationship had long been the talk of the hospital, with countless nurses considering him the ideal husband.

But now that the best husband has been dumped, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar at the hospital.

And that's exactly what Meng Chengze wanted.
