University Doctor and His Fragile Patients-Chapter 235 - 211: Five Jobs a Day—Are You Trying to Shorten Your Life? (Part 2)

The headache started again. "Student, do you really think our small school hospital can treat lung infections?"

—

"Dr. Chen: Remember, no matter how outrageous these frail students are, this is still just a school hospital."

"Seriously, doesn't Hai City University have many successful alumni? Haven't they considered donating a school hospital that can treat any illness?"

"Aren't you afraid that if they really donate, the number of frail students will increase significantly?"

"I always thought frail students only existed at Hai City University, until just now..."

"My roommate was watching a live stream, laughed too hard, and then just fainted?!"

"What live stream was your roommate watching? I have a friend who wants to check it out!"

"..."

—

With Chen Mu's rhetorical question.

The graduate students at Hai City Medical University fell into unprecedented silence.

Someone even started to reflect.

In the school hospital of Hai City University, where medical equipment is not very complete.

Can they really learn a lot?

Looking at the group of silent graduate students in front of him.

Chen Mu knew.

There wasn't much hope for them to speak up first.

Thus.

It was better for him, the one assigning tasks, to be proactive.

He pointed to He Zhiwen and continued, "He needs a companion doctor."

"Dr. Chen, I'll go!"

The buzzcut guy who first answered Chen Mu stood up, "I'm studying internal medicine, and I think He Zhiwen's case could broaden my horizons."

"And I don't have any coursework to complete this week; I can stay in the hospital to accompany He Zhiwen until his family arrives."

As a bonus, he could also observe.

How the doctors at the hospital treated He Zhiwen.

With a nod from Chen Mu. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The guy went upstairs to fill out a School Hospital Referral Form for He Zhiwen.

Then.

He took He Zhiwen's checkup reports from the school hospital, along with the He family's "grandfather and grandson," and got on the school ambulance.

Chen Mu looked at the remaining group in front of him.

The graduate students waiting for their tasks, feeling a bit exasperated: "Go check out the school hospital upstairs and downstairs; wherever you can lend a hand, just go."

Seeing that the group wasn't saying anything further.

Chen Mu yawned.

Planning to go to the entrance of the school hospital to get some fresh air.

Just as he left the observation room, he ran into Zheng Xin.

Zheng Xin looked at Chen Mu with some concern: "Dr. Chen, I heard you fainted just now?"

Chen Mu: "I had some glucose; I'm okay for now."

Zheng Xin frowned disapprovingly: "I called my dad; it's already seven PM, and by eight, you must clock out."

Hearing Zheng Xin's comment.

Chen Mu's expression turned a bit grim: "The six professors can't always stay in the school hospital."

"The school hospital needs someone who can..."

Before he could finish.

Zheng Xin interrupted impatiently, "I'll take the night shift. Come back tomorrow morning."

"Although the six professors might leave later, there are enough hands in the school hospital now to handle things."

Seeing that Chen Mu still wanted to say something.

Zheng Xin raised his hand, pointing behind Chen Mu.

Chen Mu turned around.

He saw the yawning Su Bingbing and the somewhat weary cameraman carrying equipment.

Zheng Xin's voice came again.

"Dr. Chen, I know you can power through, but what about everyone else?"

"You still have 28 days of this show to shoot. Are you going to drag the crew through this grueling routine every day for the next 28 days?"

Chen Mu opened his mouth.

Wanting to say that not every day in the school hospital is this hectic.

These two days were exceptions.

But just as he was about to speak, Chen Mu suddenly frowned and looked at Zheng Xin: "Didn't we agree earlier that you wouldn't be on duty or take responsibility..."

Zheng Xin smirked, "And then just watch you work yourself to death?"

Chen Mu: "..."

Zheng Xin: "Don't worry, I've sorted things out on my mom's side."

"Plus, I've already arranged with the hospital, and in less than half a month, I need to report there."

"Cherish this half month where you have help!"

Chen Mu took a deep breath.

The words he wanted to say were ultimately reduced to just one sentence, "Thanks, Zheng Xin!"

Zheng Xin smiled, patting Chen Mu on the shoulder: "Kid, finish this last hour and then head back to sleep!"

"Based on my experience, besides the first day of military training, the second day's morning is also a critical zone."

"Tomorrow morning, you'll really be busy!"

Zheng Xin headed back upstairs.

Chen Mu sat at the entrance of the school hospital in a daze.

Aside from the few he personally attended to, most students coming to the school hospital didn't have very serious issues.

Most were just coughing or had heatstroke.

Sitting on the steps in front of the school hospital, Chen Mu looked at the time on his phone.

Counting down to the end of the shift.

There were still fifty-three minutes to go.

At this moment.

Chen Mu's phone suddenly rang.

Just as he picked up, a cheerful voice came through from the other end, "Dr. Chen, the latest batch of medicine for your school has been delivered by a student. Check it out!"

"Sign for it later and let me know on WeChat if everything's okay."

After hanging up.

Chen Mu suddenly remembered.

Because of the frail students collectively coming to the school hospital to soak their feet in the afternoon.

He ran out of his big box of Huoxiang Zhengqi water.

He managed to restock quickly by contacting a familiar pharmacist.

However.

Chen Mu frowned slightly.

Medicine shouldn't just be casually delivered by a student.

Should Hai City University find a more reliable pharmaceutical partner?

It sounded a bit unreliable, didn't it?

"Dr. Chen, what are you looking at?"

Still lost in thought, Chen Mu felt a lock of long hair fall on his shoulder.

Upon regaining his senses.

He saw Lan Lan, having changed into her regular clothes, standing beside him.

Curiously following his earlier gaze.

"Dr. Chen, are you observing Senior Che Liang?"

"Heard about his story too?"

Chen Mu looked toward the direction he had just been staring at.

He didn't see any students, only a young man in a delivery outfit, carrying a box toward the school hospital.

Based on Lan Lan's tone.

It seemed there was some gossip that even the school doctor didn't know about.

Chen Mu followed the cue and asked, "What story?"

Lan Lan was just about to answer.

When the Che Liang she mentioned was less than a hundred meters away.

Lan Lan waved at Chen Mu, "Dr. Chen, my volunteer work ends here today. See you tomorrow!"

With that.

Lan Lan left the school hospital with a cheerful stride.

—

"Dr. Chen, this is the medicine you ordered; please check the goods."

Chen Mu didn't take the box from the student.

He only stood up and carefully observed the student's face, "I heard you're a student at Hai City University?"

Che Liang nodded.

Chen Mu turned and signaled for him to follow, "Let's talk upstairs."

Che Liang had no choice but to follow Chen Mu. While walking, he couldn't help but ask, "Dr. Chen, can you check the medicine quickly?"

"I have to go to my job soon; if I'm slow, I might be late."

Chen Mu glanced at him, "How many jobs do you work?"

Che Liang was unsure why Dr. Chen was asking this, but being somewhat of a known figure at Hai City University.

Even if he didn't answer.

Chen Mu could ask someone else and get the same answer, "I usually work five jobs every day."

Stopping in his tracks.

Chen Mu began scrutinizing the young man in front of him, "Does it affect your studies?"

The student shook his head.

His expression showing a hint of pride, "Dr. Chen, my grades are top three in the department."

Chen Mu let out a mild snort, "Pleased with your grades?"

Che Liang was puzzled.

Who wouldn't be pleased with good grades?

Chen Mu sighed, "Working five jobs a day and making time for studies, what's your average daily sleep time?"

Che Liang's expression finally changed.

Faced with the school doctor, he still honestly answered, "Three to five hours on average each day."

"I know this might be a bit unreasonable, but Dr. Chen, I'm still young."

Chen Mu snorted softly, "Young? Working five jobs a day, it seems you think you're living too long!"

"Walking with a subconscious hunch."

"Have you had shoulder or back problems?"

"How long has it been?"

Che Liang: "About more than two years?"

Chen Mu: "In these over two years, have you seen a doctor?"

Che Liang: "I didn't have time to see a doctor, and applying some Yunnan Baiyao usually eases it. Why waste time on doctors?"
