Chapter 731 Rooting for Fang Qiu!
At this time, the clock hanging on the wall showed the time as 12 o’clock.
It was already dark outside.
If anyone did a careful calculation, they would find that it had been more than 16 hours.
After working for three days and three nights, plus an additional 16 hours, Fang Qiu had been continuously treating people for 88 hours. He could not go on any longer.
“Pa!”
The sudden crash startled the nurse standing at the door of the consulting room.
“Ah…” She screamed.
The nurse immediately called for help.
The whole consulting room was in chaos.
Undoubtedly, the first one to receive the news was Xu Miaolin, who had been accompanying Fang Qiu in another consulting room not far away.
“Did he pa.s.s out?”
When he heard the news, Xu Miaolin was not anxious or frowning. Instead, there was an imperceptible smile on his face.
Xu Miaolin murmured to himself, “He has finally pa.s.sed the test!”
“Hiss…”
Taking a deep breath, Xu Miaolin tried hard to get up, but found that he could not. His legs seemed to have lost all their strength. He could not even support himself.
“I’m getting old.” Xu Miaolin smiled wryly.
He immediately opened the drawer of the desk and took out a wooden box with silver needles. He then used the acupuncture needles and p.r.i.c.ked himself. After resting for three minutes, he stood up and strode to Fang Qiu’s consulting room, as if nothing had happened.
Everyone in the whole hospital, whether it was those who were still working or those who were off duty, heard the news that Fang Qiu was so exhausted that he pa.s.sed out in the consulting room.
When they heard the news, all the doctors and nurses were stunned!
The doctor was so tired that he fainted in the consulting room?
It might happen to a surgeon who had performed a lengthy operation. It was the first time they heard that the Chinese Medicine doctor was so tired that he fainted in the consulting room.
When they thought about it carefully, Fang Qiu’s workload was so heavy that no ordinary person would have been able to take it.
Fang Qiu was only eighteen years old.
An 18-year-old doctor stuck to his post for 88 hours for the sake of his patients, until he fainted.
It required great perseverance from him to be able to do that!
No one in the Chinese Medicine Hospital could reach Fang Qiu’s level, not even Xu Miaolin. Although he could stay with Fang Qiu for 88 hours without sleeping, he could not work for 88 hours under such pressure.
Everyone was shocked by Fang Qiu’s performance.
At this moment, when they learned that Fang Qiu had pa.s.sed out, all the doctors and nurses in the hospital prayed for Fang Qiu’s recovery.
They prayed that nothing would happen to Fang Qiu!
In the hospital, all the staff, including doctors and nurses were busy working because Fang Qiu fainted.
Outside the consulting room,
“What’s going on?”
“Didn’t he just finish seeing a patient?”
“That’s right. Why are you not continuing to call the number?”
“Nurse, why did you stop calling the number?”
“Hurry up. We’re still waiting in line.”
The patients impatiently addressed the nurses.
“Creak.”
Right at this moment, the door of the consulting room opened. A nurse who was a.s.sisting Fang Qiu, came out of the room. She glared at the noisy patients outside the door, her eyes red and shouted angrily, “What are you shouting about? In order to ensure that he treats all of you, Doctor Fang became so tired that he pa.s.sed out. Stop yelling!”
All the patients waiting in line outside the door were dumbfounded when they heard that.
Looking at the young nurse who was crying in anger, they could not even utter a single word.
They felt sorry for Fang Qiu and were worried about him.
“What should we do?”
“How can Fang Qiu pa.s.s out so easily? He is a doctor himself.”
“That’s right. We haven’t seen the doctor yet. How can he pa.s.s out?”
“We have been waiting in line for so long. I’m done.”
Everyone was anxious.
But at this moment, someone suddenly said, “Is Fang Qiu looking for an excuse? Is it because he does not want to see any more patients?”
“Take a look at him!”
When the young nurse heard this, she immediately turned her head, glared at the person who said that and shouted, “Come here, come and have a look. In order to treat you, Doctor Fang Qiu has been working for 88 hours non-stop and going without sleep. Are you as tired as Doctor Fang Qiu when you are in the queue? When you are sleeping in the hospital, Doctor Fang Qiu is still seeing patients. How could you say this?”
The man who was glared at by the young nurse, snorted disdainfully and said, “It’s none of my concern about the number of hours he has been working. He didn’t treat me yet. If he had treated me earlier, I would have left already.”
As soon as he said that, everyone’s attention was immediately drawn to him, from all directions. Everyone turned their heads to look at him.
“How can you say that?”
“Yeah, Doctor Fang Qiu is such a good man.”
“Doctor Fang Qiu is so tired that he pa.s.sed out. What are you accusing him of here? If you are so capable, you should go and heal Doctor Fang Qiu!”
“You are so rude.”
“Doctor Fang Qiu shouldn’t treat a person like you.”
Hearing that, everyone began to target him angrily.
When he saw that he was at a disadvantage, the man’s face changed. He snorted and said, “That’s fine! It’s just a cold. I can still heal myself without Fang Qiu’s help.”
After that, he snorted furiously, took his medical record and left.
The pressure from the people around him was huge. If he continued to stay and say something, he was afraid that he would be attacked by all the people.
In this case, it was better to leave first.
Only when the people saw the man leave, did they feel relieved.
“Nurse, is Doctor Fang Qiu all right?”
“Yeah, it’s been more than 80 hours. Doctor Fang Qiu must be really tired.”
“Doctor Fang Qiu is the only person I’ve ever seen in my life who pa.s.sed out due to his work. I really admire him.”
“Think about it, everyone. Doctor Fang Qiu is not short of money, so he doesn’t need to come here to treat patients at all. He’s only here because of all of us. But now he is so exhausted that he pa.s.sed out.”
“Nurse, you guys have to heal Dr. Fang.”
The patients said, one after another.
Although the young nurse felt infuriated when she saw that these patients were still not leaving after learning that Fang Qiu had pa.s.sed out, her anger was slightly reduced when she heard their praises and how they understood Fang Qiu’s sacrifice. She nodded to everyone and returned to the consulting room again.
The patients sincerely admired Fang Qiu’s att.i.tude.
They also understood that Fang Qiu fainted because he was exhausted, but even so, they could not leave because they had not been treated yet. If they came back to queue, they did not know how long they would have to wait.
They had no choice but to wait for the result.
Soon, the news that Fang Qiu pa.s.sed out after seeing patients continuously for 88 hours, was posted on the Internet by someone who wanted the public to know about this.
In an instant, the topic, #Fang Qiu pa.s.sed out due to exhaustion after 88 hours#, went straight to the top of the Hot Search List on Weibo.
Countless people joined in the discussion on the topic.
“What? Fang Qiu pa.s.sed out due to exhaustion? Is that true?”
“Oh my G.o.d, it’s horrible. I can’t believe even Fang Qiu could collapse.”
“He hasn’t slept for 88 hours.”
“Great perseverance!”
“As for this perseverance, I want to say, Fang Qiu is awesome!”
“Fang Qiu is a human being after all. Any one will be tired. No matter how much Qi he cultivates, it will still be the same.”
“He’s a good doctor, a peerless doctor!”
“Master Fang Qiu, you must wake up.”
“Don’t let anything happen to him. Master Fang Qiu will get better soon. He will!”
While many people were shocked, they prayed continuously for Fang Qiu to have a quick recovery.
In the hospital, hearing the news that Fang Qiu fainted, Director Zhang Qishun rushed to Fang Qiu’s consulting room immediately. He even got there before Xu Miaolin.
“Hurry up, give him some first aid.”
Seeing Fang Qiu lying on the ground, Zhang Qishun immediately shouted out instructions, for fear that something bad would happen.
Xu Miaolin, who wasted a few minutes because he had to treat himself with acupuncture, finally came to Fang Qiu’s consulting room.
“Let me do it.”
Seeing a doctor picking up Fang Qiu and putting him on the bed, Xu Miaolin said.
Everyone turned around to have a look.
Seeing Xu Miaolin, Director Zhang Qishun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The others were no longer so nervous.
Xu Miaolin was Fang Qiu’s teacher. Xu Miaolin was undoubtedly the best person to treat Fang Qiu.
Once Xu Miaolin did it, the hospital would not be held seriously accountable even if something happened to Fang Qiu during the treatment. However, with Xu Miaolin’s medical skills, nothing would happen to Fang Qiu.
As he walked into the consulting room, Xu Miaolin asked someone to push Fang Qiu’s bed to an open s.p.a.ce and he then took out the acupuncture kit from Fang Qiu’s desk. He first felt Fang Qiu’s pulse and confirmed Fang Qiu’s condition. Then, he inserted the needles into Fang Qiu.
“He’s fine.”
After the acupuncture treatment, Xu Miaolin said, “He’s just worn out. He hasn’t eaten anything for four days and has not had a good rest. Give him some liquid nutrients and let him have a good rest. Don’t let anyone disturb him.”
Director Zhang Qishun was relieved when he heard that.
Then, the news that Fang Qiu was fine, except for his exhaustion, spread throughout the hospital.
The patients cheered when they got the news.
The nurses who were working in Fang Qiu’s consulting room in s.h.i.+fts, were also crying with joy.
They all witnessed what Fang Qiu had done and what real medical ethics were. Therefore, they all sincerely admired Fang Qiu.
Therefore, they were so relieved and excited when they heard that Fang Qiu was fine.
At the same time, the doctors on night duty also heaved sighs of relief.
They greatly admired Fang Qiu.
The news soon spread on the Internet.
When the netizens learned that Fang Qiu was fine, everyone was immensely relieved.
Almost everyone praised Fang Qiu on the topic which reached the top of the Hot Search List.
The att.i.tude Fang Qiu showed was beyond criticism this time.
No one could slander him.
If a doctor fainted while doing his job, who would dare to slander him?
“I’m rooting for Fang Qiu!”
“It’s already very good for any person to be able to last for 24 hours, let alone 88 hours. He didn’t stop and didn’t eat for three days. Fang Qiu worked so hard.”
