Chapter 67: I Am a Gentleman
The call to Xiao Yun was from Huang Siyuan, the director of City First People's Hospital.
Xiao Yun initially did not want to answer his call, but then he remembered that Zhu Wanyu was still working under him and he needed to take care of her, so he reluctantly picked up the phone.
To his surprise, Huang immediately began pleading for help.
Xiao Yun said impatiently, "Director Huang, who are you trying to scare with all this urgency? What major incident has happened that has you so frantic?"
On the other end, Huang Siyuan spoke with a distressed tone, "There’s a girl who suddenly became paralyzed in both legs and has been in a coma. The terrifying part is that her originally beautiful face is gradually changing... The headache is that this girl is not an ordinary person..."
With both horror and headache in his voice, Xiao Yun had not wanted to hear from Huang, but now he was intrigued. How could someone suddenly become paralyzed and have their face change? This was an unprecedented situation.
As for whether the girl was an ordinary person or not, he was not interested.
Xiao Yun was a very curious person, and naturally, he wanted to see what was going on.
Duan Qingxue had already overheard the conversation. With someone urgently seeking his help to treat a patient, she had no reason to stop him.
She said, "Xiao Yun, you should go. I'll treat Grandpa to lunch today; the earlier you go, the sooner you'll be back!"
Duan Haoran then laughed heartily and said, "Yes, Xiao Yun, you should go!"
Xiao Yun's frown immediately lifted as he nodded. Before leaving, he approached Gu Tianfeng and pulled his hand slightly while wearing a playful smile. "Gu Tianfeng, I didn’t expect that the woman who tried to test my skills outside Full City Fragrance that day would be you. We should have another match sometime!"
Gu Tianfeng smiled awkwardly. An Yiran beside them had remained silent, observing Xiao Yun as if he were a strange creature...
In the office of the City First People's Hospital, the air seemed to have solidified.
A middle-aged noblewoman glared with wide, almond-shaped eyes, angrily shouting at the people in the room, "I really don't know what you all are doing. It's been nearly half a month since Ruo Lan fell ill, can't you come up with any solutions?"
Huang Siyuan and the elite staff of the hospital lowered their heads, listening to the noblewoman's reprimand, not daring to make a sound.
The noblewoman stared at the helpless doctors, her expression shifting from anger to sorrow, tears glistening in her eyes, almost spilling over.
"Heavens, if I did something wrong in my past life, then punish me! Why must you torment my daughter? She's only eighteen..." The middle-aged noblewoman finally choked up.
With a serious expression, Huang Siyuan cautiously said, "Madam Shen, if within a week there is no improvement in Young Lady's condition, I am willing to resign!"
Under normal circumstances, no one could force Huang Siyuan to resign.
However, this patient was Shen Ruolan, not an ordinary person but the daughter of Shen Tieshan, the mayor of Galaxy City!
Shen Ruolan's illness was peculiar; even the best doctors in the world would struggle to determine the cause of her paralysis. It was beyond the capabilities of the Galaxy City First People's Hospital.
Thus, Huang Siyuan could only accept his misfortune. Three days ago, he had secretly prepared his resignation letter.
While hiding in a corner writing this resignation letter, he had cried like a child mourning a lost parent, feeling utterly hopeless.
Finally, Huang Siyuan suddenly thought of Xiao Yun. Mud Horse! How could I have been so foolish not to think of this gem still alive in the Galactic District?
Thinking of Xiao Yun made Huang Siyuan's eyes light up with hope.
Yes, right now, the only option is to seek help from Xiao Yun. Huang Siyuan placed his last glimmer of hope on him like a gambler placing a bet.
So, he found a secluded corner and hurriedly made a distress call to Xiao Yun.
To his delight, Xiao Yun readily agreed to his request.
Thank goodness!
Huang Siyuan let out a quiet sigh of relief.
As long as Xiao Yun can save the mayor's Young Lady, he would be willing to call him "Dad."
At this moment, after hearing Huang Siyuan's words, the noblewoman raised her willow-like brows and angrily scolded, "Is that something a dean would say? I don't want you to resign; I want you to find a way to cure Ruo Lan's illness!"
"Yes, yes, yes!!!" Huang Siyuan nodded repeatedly. Although the air conditioning in the room was set to the lowest temperature, sweat was still pouring down his face and body.
Taking advantage of others not paying attention, Huang Siyuan kept glancing at his watch. Why hasn’t Xiao Yun arrived yet?
Suddenly!
With a creak of the door, Zhu Wanyu walked in with a young man.
"Mr. Xiao, you’re here?" Huang Siyuan immediately recognized Xiao Yun as if he had grasped a lifeline while drowning and joyfully rushed forward to greet him.
Xiao Yun didn’t pay him any mind; instead, he scanned the people around and asked, "Who is the patient Shen Ruolan's mother, Ms. Xiao?"
"Oh, that's me. May I ask who you are..." Madam Shen replied.
"He is surnamed Xiao, a divine doctor I invited, and also our special consultant at First People's Hospital..." Huang Siyuan hurriedly introduced to Madam Shen.
Upon hearing Huang Siyuan's words, Xiao Yun was momentarily stunned. When did he become a special consultant for this hospital?
This Huang really knows how to put a label on people.
However, Xiao Yun quickly understood Huang's little scheme.
Xiao Yun waved his hand to stop Huang Siyuan from speaking. He turned his back with his hands clasped behind him and casually approached Madam Shen, sizing her up from head to toe. He murmured, "Hmm, not bad, a well-proportioned figure, curvy in all the right places. Just looking at this chest, it’s like mountains and peaks; any man would like it. Uh, her face is also pretty; like mother, like daughter. I bet Madam Shen's daughter must be stunning as well..."
Uh!!!
Everyone in the room froze their gaze on Xiao Yun. Was he here to treat illness or just to flirt with women?
Huang Siyuan was dumbfounded!
Madam Shen's face turned extremely red with anger: "What do you think you're doing?"
Xiao Yun curled his lips into a faint smile and suddenly raised his hand—smack—
Oh my, he slapped Madam Shen across the face!
He...
With the crisp sound of the slap, Huang Siyuan staggered and nearly spat out a mouthful of blood, almost fainting.
At that moment, Huang Siyuan truly felt an impulse to kneel on the ground and call Xiao Yun "Daddy" or "Ancestor."
I brought you here to treat the Mayor's Young Lady, not to fight. Do you know that this My Lady is not someone an ordinary person can offend?
I just introduced you as a special consultant hired by City People's Hospital, and unexpectedly, you pulled this stunt on me. Are you trying to push me into the fire pit?
Huang Siyuan felt like he wanted to die at this moment!
Zhu Wanyu was so scared that she covered her mouth with both hands, swallowing back the scream that was about to escape.
The others had their mouths agape, wide enough to fit a chicken egg.
What kind of madness is this guy under, daring to hit the Mayor's wife?
Madam Shen was stunned from the blow. She covered her face with her hands, her beautiful eyes filled with horror. As she stepped back, she anxiously asked, "You... you..." but couldn't manage to say a complete sentence.
"Ms. Xiao, don't be afraid. I'm not a pervert; I'm a gentleman—uh, come here, let me take a closer look at the half of your face that I hit!"
Xiao Yun said seriously with a smile, reaching out to pry open Xiao Ling's hand that was covering her face. His mischievous gaze locked onto her face as he shook his head repeatedly, making sounds of disapproval...
Mud Horse, what on earth does this guy want to do?
Everyone in the room looked at Xiao Yun anxiously... The Pinnacle of Elegance has been updated.
