Chapter 2333

Zhang Xiaofeng looked at the confident Zhu Yanyi, as if seeing the capable team leader from over ten years ago again. "Zhu Yanyi, when did you become a divine doctor?"

Zhu Yanyi handed her a prescription and smiled. "That’s a long story. But now is not the time for old times. We can chat properly later."

"Okay." Zhang Xiaofeng knew it wasn’t the right time either. After chatting for a while and getting the prescription, he left.

The man sitting opposite, who had been reading a newspaper, had been secretly watching. He finally spoke up. "Are you really that divine doctor?"

Zhu Yanyi glanced at her calmly. "Whether I am a divine doctor or not doesn’t matter. What matters is our identity. We are doctors. A doctor’s duty is to save lives." She didn’t say the rest, but she formed a bad impression of this man who was crossing her legs and reading the paper.

The man smiled awkwardly. "Traditional Chinese medicine has many tricks. Do you want to listen to me? It might save you from being exposed later."

Zhu Yanyi ignored her. "Sorry. Listening to you is worse than reading books myself."

Seeing her unwillingness to engage, the man decided she must be a fake. People often think this way when they feel inferior. She couldn’t admit she was worse, so she made excuses, believing Zhu Yanyi was an impostor.

Zhu Yanyi didn’t care about the environment, but this situation made her unhappy. She came for the patients’ health, not to look at people’s faces. She wondered if she should change her approach.

At noon, Yan Aohan found Zhu Yanyi. Seeing the clinic, he frowned slightly. "Did the director arrange this for you?"

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I was thinking about changing methods."

Yan Aohan said calmly, "Who in our family has ever wronged you? Do you need to suffer here? Besides, they benefit from your presence. Putting you here is like a warning shot."

Zhu Yanyi smiled bitterly. "I think so too. So, I thought about having our modified car brought over tonight. Tomorrow, I’ll see patients directly in the car."

Yan Aohan agreed. "Good. I’ll have the car brought today. You don’t need to sit here. If this hospital is bad, we can find a square. You are a doctor. Wherever there are patients, you can show your skills. Maybe more people will seek help in a square."

Zhu Yanyi was surprised, then nodded. "You’re right. I walked into a dead end. In ancient times, doctors worked in pharmacies or as traveling physicians. Why can’t I be a modern traveling doctor? My skills serve everyone, not for someone’s warning shot."

Yan Aohan nodded. "I know you won’t leave this afternoon because you always finish what you start. I’ll go find the director of this People’s Hospital. I’ll tell her you won’t be here for your month in Yong City. No need for her warning shot."

Zhu Yanyi nodded. The morning had few patients, which depressed her. Plus, the strange doctor opposite made her feel stifled.

After lunch, Yan Aohan went out. He made a phone call. Since they were becoming traveling doctors, some preparations were needed. Fortunately, another car was ready. Yan Aohan planned to have it flown over.

She had modified two cars. One was for rest and travel, with eating and sleeping facilities. The other was a medical car for consultations and surgeries. It was finished two days ago, originally to be sent in a few days. Now, it needed to come overnight.

He couldn’t bear to see his wife suffer even a little, let alone from others. This was unacceptable. So, although Zhu Yanyi had a plan, Yan Aohan would ensure it was perfect.

After the call, Yan Aohan went to the director. Looking at the director’s rat-like eyes, Yan Aohan realized what "short-sighted" truly meant.

"Who are you? Do you have business with the director?" The director’s attitude seemed arrogant.

Yan Aohan threw an ID card on the desk. "Zhu Yanyi is my wife. In Jingdu, she is called a divine doctor. At Jingdu Hospital, she has her own practice chamber and patient wards. From high officials to international friends, everyone treats her with respect when seeking her help.

You, in a second-tier city’s People’s Hospital, act bigger than Jingdu. You stuffed my wife into a TCM clinic. No nurse, no assistant, and you put a self-important doctor reading a newspaper in front of her. It seems you don’t welcome her. So, starting tomorrow, she won’t come here."

The director saw the ID and realized he had offended someone. "Comrade, calm down. Let’s sit and discuss."

"No need." Yan Aohan refused calmly.

"My wife came here because Yao City belongs to Yong City. She is from Yao City and wanted to give Yong City people a chance. She had already practiced for a month in her hometown. This month was supposed to start in Hang City, but she chose Yong City to help her hometown people for another month. Now, we were wrong. Yong City has many hospitals. We were blind to choose the People’s Hospital because we couldn’t see that it doesn’t serve the people."

Yan Aohan turned to leave. "I’m just notifying you. But I must thank you. If not for your hospital’s situation, my wife and I wouldn’t have considered this. So, my wife will practice as a traveling doctor, offering free clinics. Patients can get prescriptions and buy medicine themselves. She won’t charge for consultations, saving people money."

Yan Aohan left. He didn’t care what the director thought.

The afternoon had few patients. Most came in the morning; afternoons were for emergencies. Zhu Yanyi packed up her desk at dusk, restoring it to its original state, and left on time with her medical box.

Outside the hospital, Yan Aohan was waiting. They smiled, Zhu Yanyi got in the car, and they left.

After Zhu Yanyi left, the director rushed into her former practice chamber. The man opposite was still there. She stood up. "Director, why are you here?"

"Where is Dr. Zhu?" the director asked.

"She left. No patients, so she wouldn’t stay late." The man said. "Director, she’s not our doctor. Just an intern. What’s special?"

"You’re the intern! She’s the divine doctor from Jingdu. Oh no, it’s over. Director Ding’s father is critically ill. Director Ding asked Director Gu of Jingdu Hospital for help. Director Gu said her junior sister, the divine doctor Zhu Yanyi, is here. Director Ding is looking for her. Now she’s gone. Where do I find her? It’s over."

The director had initially thought Zhu Yanyi was a connected person. Although called a divine doctor, she thought it was a gimmick, especially seeing her age. Now she realized she was short-sighted. She had driven away a divine doctor due to ignorance.

"It’s okay if she’s a divine doctor. She’ll come back tomorrow. We can ask her then." the man said.

"What are you talking about? It’s an emergency. Can you delay an emergency? Even if you could, it wouldn’t help. Our attitude today displeased the divine doctor. Her husband notified me. She won’t come to the People’s Hospital tomorrow. She will offer free clinics as a traveling doctor." The director felt her career was ending.

Not only was she Director Gu Jingtian’s junior sister, but Gu Jingtian was the eldest disciple of the Medicine Elder. Zhu Yanyi was the Medicine Elder’s junior disciple. No wonder she was called a divine doctor. She had lost such a great doctor. She would be laughed at.

The lazy man was stunned. "Director, brother-in-law, what do we do?" It turned out they were related.

"What can we do? We can only tell them we can’t find her. She is a cadre; she will have ways." The director didn’t know what to do. If she had known, she would never have treated Zhu Yanyi that way.

Zhu Yanyi arrived home. Before eating, she received a call from Gu Jingtian. "Senior Brother Jingtian, you’re calling just as I’m about to eat."

"Junior Sister, how was it at the new hospital today?" Gu Jingtian asked.

"Not good. The hospital’s philosophy doesn’t match mine. I decided to become a traveling doctor starting tomorrow. Also, Senior Brother Jingtian…" Zhu Yanyi paused.

"I think my own philosophy had issues. I thought sitting in every hospital was enough, but I forgot hospitals have human relations. You know I’m not good at social nuances. So, I thought a car and traveling doctor life is better. I practice for a month in each city. I think that will give me richer experience."

Gu Jingtian understood. "Good thing I called you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know where you were tomorrow."

"You have my phone number. Afraid to find me?" Zhu Yanyi said casually. "But why are you calling now? Did something happen?"

"Yes. Director Ding of Guangming District in Yong City is a good man. His father is critically ill. Some people in Yong City found me through connections. I can’t reach them, but you are in Yong City. I thought of letting him find you." Gu Jingtian said.

Zhu Yanyi thought for a moment. "Where is the patient now?"

"Guangming District Medical Center. They dare not move him, fearing it might endanger his life." Gu Jingtian said.

"Have someone wait at the door. I’ll have Aohan drive me there." Zhu Yanyi hung up and looked at Yan Aohan. Yan Aohan smiled helplessly. "Let’s go. We can eat later."

Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile. Yan Aohan couldn’t bear to let his wife go hungry. Fortunately, he had wrapped some buns in the afternoon. He handed two to her. "Eat on the way. You probably won’t have time to eat when we arrive."

Zhu Yanyi got in the car, ate one, and stuffed one in Yan Aohan’s mouth. "Share blessings, share buns." She smiled mischievously.

"I should have taken more." Yan Aohan ate the bun but sighed.

Zhu Yanyi laughed. "It’s okay. You know I don’t get hungry easily. It doesn’t matter much."

Yan Aohan looked at the traffic light. "But you can’t skip meals."

It took fifteen minutes to drive to Guangming District. Yan Aohan drove fast. A regular taxi would take over half an hour.

At Guangming District Medical Center, Yan Aohan parked. Zhu Yanyi entered with her medical box. A young man was waiting at the door.

"I am Zhu Yanyi." Zhu Yanyi said.

The young man hurriedly said, "You are Divine Doctor Zhu? Great! I am Ding Mao. My grandfather is sick. I’ll take you in."

Zhu Yanyi said, "Just tell me the exact room. I’ll go myself. My husband is parking. She’ll come up later. You guide her."

Ding Mao immediately told her, "Third room to the east, Room 103, Emergency Ward."
