CHAPTER 369: CHAPTER 369: DIDN’T KISS?

Gu Nanzhi pushed Tang Chuxia, knocking her straight to the ground.

"Ouch, how come you didn’t sit steadily?"

Gu Nanzhi hurried to assist Tang Chuxia, but as you can guess, she didn’t manage to help her up and ended up being pulled down by Tang Chuxia as well.

Luckily, they were used to roughhousing and didn’t make much of it.

"Say it!"

Tang Chuxia poked Gu Nanzhi curiously.

Gu Nanzhi pushed her hand away, "Quit it, I have nothing going on with Zheng Duoqing!"

Tang Chuxia asked in a drawn-out tone, "Really nothing at all?"

Gu Nanzhi’s face flushed red, "Of course there’s nothing, and you actually doubt me!"

Tang Chuxia sighed, "And here I was thinking you might develop something with your little cousin!"

Gu Nanzhi slapped Tang Chuxia lightly, "I’m still a student, there’s no rush!"

Tang Chuxia pointed at her own nose, "I’m already married, and you’re still a student. Shouldn’t you consider my feelings when you say that?"

Gu Nanzhi chuckled sheepishly, "Can we even compare? You married the man you wanted to marry, while I dedicated my life to knowledge. It’s different!"

Tang Chuxia pinched Gu Nanzhi’s cheek, "Look at my expression!"

When Tang Chuxia made a vomiting face, Gu Nanzhi patted her back, urging her to stop.

The two chattered away in noisy fun.

However, since Beihuai had left, Gu Nanzhi also worried that Tang Chuxia might not feel well, so she made her sleep a bit more before taking her to the emergency department.

If she had promised Mrs. Gu, she certainly would keep her word.

Upon arriving in the emergency department, Tang Chuxia saw many doctors and nurses with hoarse voices and extreme fatigue.

No wonder she hadn’t gone to look for them before; they were incredibly busy, especially during the flood disaster, with a continuous stream of injured patients being brought in.

Gu Nanzhi knew these people well and, seeing a nurse seated for a rest, brought Tang Chuxia over.

"Hey, Xiao Tang is here!"

The nurse in charge greeted Tang Chuxia with cheerfulness, genuinely eager for the experience.

Tang Chuxia pointed to Gu Nanzhi, "My little manager here. Whoever wants to go first, just check in with her, and I’ll follow the order. You can go about your duties, and I’ll find you afterward!"

The nurse in charge hugged Tang Chuxia and assured her there would be no problem. She was just about to say something but was called away to help, with no time to rest.

Gu Nanzhi whispered to Tang Chuxia, "See? Everyone here is like that, as if they wish they had a pair of whirlwind wheels on their legs!"

Tang Chuxia nodded in agreement.

That’s why she couldn’t be a doctor; just thinking about the workload was overwhelming for her.

Tang Chuxia easily justified it in her mind and slumped in a corner to start making adjustments for the nurses.

Compared to nurses from other departments, those here had more severe problems – many with serious occupational diseases, which shocked Tang Chuxia as she worked on them.

But the accompanying sounds were somewhat frightening.

Crack—

Crack crack—

Crack crack crack—

Crack crack crack crack crack crack...

The series of noises quite literally made many people hold their breaths subconsciously, and even Tang Chuxia’s face couldn’t help but twitch.

Even Gu Nanzhi beside her grimaced; the noise was very distinctive, and few could keep their expressions unchanged after hearing it.

Tang Chuxia lamented that there were no convenient cameras back then, or else she would have photographed them all, which would definitely have been very amusing.

"My goodness, how old is this young lady? How come she’s so strong? She broke the bones?"

Some older woman had never seen such a situation and kept asking on the side.

Gu Nanzhi almost burst out laughing.

She had no choice but to explain what bone setting was.

After all, this was a hospital, Tang Chuxia had been given an identity by Gu Nanzhi, a specially invited bone-setting successor, to come and relieve the physical strains of doctors and nurses.

After all, Tang Chuxia was still Elder Huang’s disciple. Ordinary people might not know much about Elder Huang, but the doctors and nurses all knew how formidable Elder Huang was.

When these people heard how skilled Tang Chuxia was, they all clamored for her to take a look at them, but this time Gu Nanzhi had learned very hastily.

"It’s not that our Dr. Tang doesn’t want to see you all; it’s just that time is limited. Let’s give priority to the doctors and nurses, okay? They are the ones who need the treatment most; otherwise, they won’t have the strength to attend to other patients later!"

Standing on the side of righteousness, others could understand, but they all asked where Tang Chuxia held her office so they could go for a consultation after the flood was over.

Gu Nanzhi was now in a difficult position.

Tang Chuxia was Elder Huang’s student, that was true, but she had not formally held consultations yet.

However, thinking of how Elder Huang had tricked her, Tang Chuxia very decisively sold Elder Huang’s medical hall. After all, there were many senior brothers there, and they would be more than capable of handling these people.

Gu Nanzhi felt a pang in her heart, deciding she must remember never to offend Tang Chuxia; this woman could hold a grudge.

And her methods were particularly underhanded, because you never knew where she would strike back.

Elder Huang and the others were likely to be very busy for a while.

Tang Chuxia was busy setting bones in the hospital, and from time to time, she would even have to insert a few needles.

It was just that all the doctors in the hospital really had skills, so nobody said anything about a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine doing such things in a Western hospital.

If it were in the era where Tang Chuxia came from, someone doing this would probably be crucified by criticism.

A lot of times, she really envied their doctor-patient relationship.

This time, Tang Chuxia was more cautious and didn’t act recklessly; she could at least insert some acupuncture to alleviate the pain in the process.

Even so, she was busy until very late, and when Gu Beihuai and Father Gu came by, Tang Chuxia hadn’t had a moment’s rest because there were always people seeking her out.

Tang Chuxia really couldn’t say anything, especially for those patients with dislocations; what could she do?

Just a move and she would set it right for them; otherwise, they would have to lie in the hospital, occupying beds and medical resources.

Orthopedic doctors followed behind Tang Chuxia, almost revering her as an ancestor.

Who else knew how to handle various bone fractures and other issues simply by touching them?

"How exactly did Dr. Tang learn?"

Someone tried to get some inside information from Gu Nanzhi, only to hear Gu Nanzhi say, "It’s a talent!"

It indeed was a talent; how long had Tang Chuxia studied with Elder Huang? Was it even a month?

And what happened?

She was ready to graduate and hold consultations. Who else would dare to do that?

Elder Huang himself would probably be astounded if he were here.

But Gu Nanzhi dared not say that; she was afraid if she spoke out, people would be driven mad with envy.

"Talent, you know? She was born to eat this bowl of rice. Her hands are the best detectors; beep beep, and she knows the issue!"

That was simply a blow to others.

Fortunately, those people were just inquiring, not really looking to delve deeply.

It was just that when Gu Beihuai came over and saw a line of people in white coats behind Tang Chuxia, the corners of his mouth twitched frantically. He tried to block the view from behind, but people scattered it open.
