Ji s.h.i.+zhen fled from the radiology department, leaving a stunned Chen Ailing behind.

When he had put enough distance between himself and his supposed admirer, Ji s.h.i.+zhen pulled out his pager to keep his superior informed on the latest development with his new charge. Within seconds, the pager was answered by Wu Jiaxuan.

"Dr. Wu, this is Ji s.h.i.+zhen radioing to let you know that I"ll be doing an early discharge of the patient that I"m monitoring! His CT result came out clear and he is free to leave."

"That"s good, Dr. Ji...but are you going to hand him over to the hospital security or the police to find his ident.i.ty."

Wu Jiaxuan was the doctor that mentored Ji s.h.i.+zhen during his residency days as a graduate doctor. The two formed a close knitted relations.h.i.+p even after he became a permanent staff at the hospital. To Ji s.h.i.+zhen, the present head doctor of the emergency was a colleague he deeply respected and sought advice on medical related issues.

"I"ll take him to the police, whatever happens after I"ll let you know."

"That"s not how it"s done! That"s why we have hospital security! Let them handle this! Don"t try to meddle into things that you"re not sure of! He could be a hooligan or cutthroat! What if he robs you at knife point?! I"ve heard of people been victims while trying to be good samaritans!"

Wu Jiaxuan pleaded pa.s.sionately with his mentee to take his hands off what was considered a risky situation.

"I have everything under control, Prof. Wu and I promise to keep you posted. Enjoy your evening Sir."

Ji s.h.i.+zhen politely ended page with refusing to adhere to the warning of the other doctor.

-------------

Chen Ailing allowed the hand that was placed on Ji s.h.i.+zhen to trail down until they met the naked skin of the back of his hand.

Ji s.h.i.+zhen was struck by a revolting sensation, he could feel his skin begin to crawl, as though he wanted to throw up after being touched by a colleague. An attractive woman for that matter!

"Dr. Ji?"

The face of the young doctor had gone pale after the contact, his dazed expression was not missed by the eagle eyed radiologist.

"Yes?...."

It took a moment for Ji s.h.i.+zhen to shake off the nauseating encounter with Chen Ailing.

"Dinner, Dr. Ji? Would you mind joining me? You can bring a friend with you!"

Chen Ailing hurriedly spoke to the handsome young doctor whom she had set eyes on for quite a while.

"Ms. Chen doesn"t look too bad....but why do I want to scrub my body clean?! What"s with that?!"

Alarmed at being disgusted to be touched by a beautiful woman. Ji s.h.i.+zhen wanted to smoothly turn down the invite of Chen Ailing without making the other feel offended.

"I"ll love us to have dinner together, but I don"t want my girlfriend having a wrong idea about us."

True enough, the doctor"s words made little sense to a being that did not fully grasp the ways of humans. He could feel his eyes hurting and ears aching from listening to the constant noise which came from the people around him. His head began to throb from the sudden change in environment and new body that he now possessed.

"Oh by the way, have you contacted your family or someone that can serve as your guardian? Because you can"t leave the hospital without paying your fees."

"What is this stupid human talking about? I don"t need a guardian!"

Unable to hold it in any longer, the outburst of the demon lord caused many to stare openly at him as though he had gone mad.

Almost about the same time, a cheery young man walked into the unit and began chatting with the other staff present, seeing his senior colleague who was also his mentor. Taking it upon himself, he walked up to him to greet not knowing of the fight that was brewing.

"Good evening, Professor Wu! I thought you were the supervisor for the cardiac unit?"

His eyes danced with mirth as he faced the doctor that was to head the emergency department for that s.h.i.+ft.

"It"s a change in pace for me, the pay is good, can"t complain huh?"

Ji s.h.i.+zhen and his mentor laughed merrily it was as if they were the only ones there.

Lord Nezha"s eyes ran down the length of the man that was speaking to his doctor, noticing the trim body.

"I can"t believe I"m reduced to taking sustenance from a mere mortal!"

The moment the thought formed in his head, the demon lord lurched towards Ji s.h.i.+zhen, grabbing the other tightly by his forearms to kiss him straight on the lips, drawing with it the thing that would allow him to form demon energy "mana" for him to regain his pride as the demon lord.

"Young man! What are you doing?! Get away from him! Security! Could someone call security!"

So began the demon lord"s first hours in the mortal realm, as everyone was thrown into a state of frenzy at his brazen act towards a respectable doctor.

At PuHua Hospital a man was wheeled into the emergency room by the medics. A nurse checked them in and carried out the preliminary checks, it was at this point that the medics gave a detailed description about the condition of the man and that was when they exchanged parting greeting then went their separate ways.

Twenty minutes went by before a doctor made his way to the bedside of Lord Nezha.

"Good evening, I"m Dr Wu. Can you tell me what brought you to the emergency department today?"

A good looking man that appeared to be forty something, wore white lab coat over s.h.i.+rt and pants. He smiled pleasantly to the man lying on the bed.

Lord Nezha stared at the human at the side of his bed, the urge to snap his neck and wipe the smile off his face resonated strongly within him.

"I didn"t ask to be brought here! I want to leave now!"

Used to dealing with all manner of people, the doctor continued to smile at whom he considered a difficult patient.

"It"s not likely you would remain here for the next 24 hours, you don"t seem to look out of the ordinary. Let me run some tests and see what comes out. Then I"ll clear you to go as soon as everything checks out just fine."

As the doctor spoke he took in the strange clothing of the man and the way he was acting.

"I don"t think he might need a psych consult, but I"ll watch him closely to see if he does anything to warrant getting him looked after by a psychiatrist."

While the doctor thought of what to do with the patient that was a.s.signed to his care. The demon lord was fuming inside.

"I don"t understand you! I need to get out of here at once!"
