Medical Sovereign - Chapter 502
Chapter 502 Condemned by the Crowd
Soon, Ding Ning selected his patient during the given time, but seeing the patient, Zhao Zifeng and his companions, Wei Biaobiao and his companions, and even Yan Hao got extremely strange expressions because this patient was nobody but Xiao Nuo’s cousin Xiao Yan.
In order to avoid Zhao Zifeng’s harassment, Xiao Yan hid in the crowd like joining the fun, but did not expect that Ding Ning selected her and took her out.
“Haha, Surnamed Ding, you are so funny, aren’t you? Pick up an acquaintance to make up the number?”
Pointing at Xiao Yan, Yan Hao laughed his head off.
Slightly stunned, Ding Ning knitted his eyebrows. “What acquaintance?”
“Brother-in-law, this is Sister Nuo’s cousin, but she is not on good terms with Sister Nuo and always fools around with Zhao Zifeng and his friends.”
Huzi leaned over and whispered in his ear, but out of politeness, he still nodded to Xiao Yan and greeted her, “Sister Xiao Yan.”
Ding Ning looked at Xiao Yan deeply. “She turns out to be Xiao Nuo’s cousin? But she looks nothing like Xiao Nuo, much less beautiful than her. I can give her 80 points at most.”
Xiao Yan could not care that much and ignored Huzi. At the moment, her heat beat rapidly, and the palms of her clenched hands were soaked with sweat, and she asked anxiously, “Tell me now, what on earth is wrong with me?”
Frowning slightly, Ding Ning soon became calm again and said indifferently, “You’ll know in a while.”
“I… Did you make a mistake? How could I get sick?”
Xiao Yan bit her lips tightly and asked with a fluke.
In fact, she had already had an endless panic. The truth was that when the two competed, they had to select the patients with serious diseases. She was sure that Ding Ning did not know her and was unlikely to frighten her on purpose, which meant that she was sick indeed and her condition was serious, so how could she not panic?
Seeing that the two of them had selected their patients, the five judges diagnosed the two patients again on the spot.
The middle-aged man selected by Yan Hao was soon diagnosed with occult filariasis, which is called tropical pulmonary eosinophilia in Western medicine, and its clinical manifestations are night attack asthma or cough with fatigue and low fever. This was the same as the diagnosis given by Yan Hao.
Yan Hao glanced at Ding Ning complacently. The occult filariasis has a certain incubation period and is difficult to be detected. Since he could find this patient from so many people, it was enough to prove that he had excellent medical skills.
Yan Xun looked at Yan Hao approvingly. To diagnose the occult filariasis, he would have to spend a lot of energy. Now, he had a good successor, so he was deeply gratified.
Ding Ning stood there quietly with a peaceful expression, waiting for the decision of the five judges.
The five prestigious judges diagnosed Xiao Yan by feeling her pulse respectively and also huddled to discuss something in whispers. Looking at their serious complexions, Xiao Yan gasped nervously. “What on earth is wrong with me?”
Director Li frowned and looked at Old Traditional Chinese Physician Wang and the others, “I am a western medicine doctor and only have a smattering of knowledge on traditional Chinese medicine, and I want to know if all of you have a diagnosis?”
Old Traditional Chinese Physician Wang stroked his goatee and shook his head with a bitter smile. “I did not diagnose anything. This girl is very healthy.”
“Nor did I. But this shouldn’t be true. It’s impossible for Doctor Ding with excellent medical skills to get a wrong diagnosis!”
Old Traditional Chinese Physician Meng knitted his eyebrows tightly and pondered. “If it is only Ding Ning’s wrong diagnosis, that’s not a big deal, but if Xiao Yan has a disease and we did not find it, that’s a great shame.”
Old Traditional Chinese Physician Liu was unwilling to give up and felt Xiao Yan’s pulse again. After five minutes, he finally released her wrist and shook his head with a bitter smile in the eyes of the crowd. “I really can’t find anything.”
Xiao Yan frowned slightly and rubbed her temples with her long knuckles. “I had a physical examination a short time ago, and the result showed that I was very healthy. Did he make a mistake?”
Executive Jiang spread his hands with his palms facing upward. “Perhaps we can only ask him, but I think that with excellent medical skills, he will probably not make a wrong diagnosis.”
Xiao Yan rubbed her temples anxiously. No one wants to get sick. She hoped that Ding Ning was wrong very much, but her intuition told her that under such circumstances, Ding Ning could not make such a misdiagnosis.
After a discussion, the five judges decided to ask Ding Ning to give his answer.
In the eyes of the crowd, Executive Jiang announced with an embarrassed expression, “After examination, we find that the patient picked up by Doctor Ding is healthy and doesn’t have any illnesses.”
“Hahaha, I always know that he is a man who deceives the public to gain reputations. What a fucking Little Miracle-working Doctor! He is indeed a swindler currying favor with claptrap! Surnamed Ding, what else do you want to say now?”
Yan Hao smiled happily and pointing at Ding Ning, said with laughter.
With a boom, the whole scene boiled. People in the surroundings looked at Ding Ning with disdain and contempt.
“Little Miracle-working Doctor? He turns out to be a swindler. My time has been wasted.”
“Our Yan Jing’s Little King of Needles is the real promising medical rookie. What a fucking Little Miracle-working Doctor! Get out of Yan Jing!”
“Get out of Yan Jing, damn swindler!”
“We can’t allow him to get out of Yan Jing. Now, we must expose his real image and should throw him to prison.”
“Right, throw him to prison. As a swindler, he must have made lots of money by cheating!”
…
In an instant, the crowd went furious. They had wrath in their eyes as they looked at Ding Ning, wishing to chop him into pieces. Some of them, if not stopped by those who still had not lost their senses, must have been ready to rush over and beat Ding Ning.
Wei Biaobiao and his companions had become extremely sulky. Looking at Yan Hao, a person of a low character who was appreciated, they wished to go and punch his face flat.
Those in the medical sector who knew something about Ding Ning knitted their eyebrows tightly. They did not believe that Ding Ning would make a misdiagnosis.
The reporters were very energetic and did not care whether Ding Ning was a swindler or not. After painstakingly staying here for a night, they finally got a piece of breaking news. In swarms, they went over and kept taking photos of Ding Ning, and some reporters had already begun to make drafts in their minds and also think about the titles they should use to attract attention for the news pages of the following day.
“Impossible. Our brother-in-law’s medical skills are brilliant, and you guys must have made a mistake.”
Huzi and Mosquito, who were extremely confident in Ding Ning’s medical skills, could not accept this result at all and roared angrily at the top of their voices, but their voices were drowned in the swearing and curses of the crowd.
Hiding in the dark corner and seeing that Ding Ning had finally lost all his standing and reputation, Zhao Zifeng felt so happy that all his pores had opened, as if he had eaten ice cream in the hottest time of summer.
But remembering that Ding Ning had evidence about his secrets, he stopped smiling at once, but his eyes turned again and again because he was wondering if there was a way that he could get back these pieces of evidence but did not have to ask Qu Yan to sleep with Ding Ning.
Su Qin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, feeling a little disappointed. “I did not expect Ding Ning to be so weak. Before the real attack comes, he has been defeated.”
Staring at the lonely figure standing in the crowd, who seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world and was being condemned by everyone, Yue Tingting had an extremely complicated look in her eyes. After a light sigh, she bowed her head.
As his smile became broad bit by bit, Yan Xun said with a restrained expression, “People need to go through severe tests. The man who became famous in his youth has vigorous spirits, but he is still a little complacent, after all.”
“I thought I could watch the fun, but I did not expect him to be so vulnerable. It’s really boring.”
Yan Hui looked peaceful but said proudly.
“Senior Brother, do you think that a famous genius young man who removed the poison of the gastrodia elata powder will make such a stupid mistake in such an occasion?”
Junior Sister Qingyun held a different view, her eyes glinting with wisdom. She had a vague intuition that Ding Ning was not such an ordinary person at all.
Yan Hui said disapprovingly, “Some people seem to have some skills in normal times, but they will be nervous and lose their balance of mind when the competition begins. Flustered, they will make mistakes.”
“Distinguished emissary, your idea is wise. Ding Ning is not as good as Yan Hao, but since he could remove the poison of the gastrodia elata powder, he has some skills. Unfortunately, he is a bumpkin who has never seen the wonders of the world. In such a tense atmosphere, it is normal for him to make mistakes. He is like some students, who usually have a good performance, but when they take the exam, they will be nervous and flustered, so they can’t get high scores. I guess this is Ding Ning’s situation.”
Yan Xun echoed his view with a flattering smile.
“It must be so. What a pity!”
Yan Hui nodded slightly and said with great regret.
“I don’t think so, and let’s wait and see.”
Junior Sister Qingyun did not agree because she found that from beginning to now, Ding Ning had been calm, as if he was not the one accused by everyone.
“Quiet, everyone!”
Executive Jiang shouted for a long time before everyone became quiet.
“Dear seniors, now that it is clear who wins and who loses, is it time to announce the result of the competition?”
With his goal attained, Yan Hao said contentedly.
“Doctor Yan, it is a little early to say so, isn’t it?”
Executive Jiang, who did not like the winner’s haughty look of Yan Hao, said with a cold snort, “We haven’t found the disease, but it doesn’t mean that you win.”
“Executive Jiang, what do you mean by saying so?”
A clever reporter immediately seized the opportunity and reaching out his microphone, asked.
“Right, Executive Jiang, it is clear who wins and who loses now, but why do you say that the Little King of Needles hasn’t won?”
“Since the Little Miracle-working Doctor has been proven a swindler and the Little King of Needles is sure to win, but what do you mean by saying so, Executive Jiang?”
“Does the Little King of Needles have to cure the patient to win? That’s good. Then, we can see the elegant demeanor of the Little King of Needles.”
…
The reporters, like the flies which had smelled the stink, buzzed and went over again, and some people made conjectures in a self-righteous manner.
“Quiet, quiet, let me finish my words.”
Executive Jiang’s throat had almost been broken because of shouts, and then the site became quiet again.
Executive Jiang majestically narrowed his eyes and glanced around, and his eyes finally fell on Ding Ning and became gentle. “Doctor Ding, I saw the whole process of your test, and I believe that you will never make a misdiagnosis, so I think that although we haven’t diagnosed anything, it doesn’t mean that this girl doesn’t have a disease. Please make an explanation.”
“What? What does Executive Jiang mean?”
“How could it be? Does Executive Jiang mean that the disease they five judges did not find was found by the Little Miracle-working Doctor? Does it mean that they think they are not as good as the Little Miracle-working Doctor?”
“How could it be? The five seniors are all very famous authorities in the medical field!”
“What a joke! What are these five leading prestigious medical professionals doing? They are devaluing their social statuses, aren’t they?”
“Is Ding Ning Executive Jiang’s illegitimate child? To excuse the swindler, he is even willing to devalue his social status.”
…
The scene boiled again with a boom. All the people looked at Executive Jiang and his companions with disbelief, not knowing why they still had to do this unnecessary job even with the price of devaluing their social statuses.
“Executive Jiang, you are going too far by doing so, aren’t you? The fact is in front of us: Ding Ning is a swindler, but you are still excusing him. What benefits did you take from him?”
Seeing that Executive Jiang and his companions were still defending Ding Ning, Yan Hao instantly become angry from embarrassment and shouted without caring about his wording.
“What did you say? How could you dare to make such an irresponsible remark to smear our reputations?”
“Boy, you really don’t have respect for elders and lack family discipline. Yan Xun, is this the grandson you’ve brought up?”
“What a bad boy! Do you really think you are the Little King of Needles? A terrible child without family discipline!”
Old Traditional Chinese Physician Liu and his companions exploded with anger and shouted without caring about their manners.
