University Doctor and His Fragile Patients Chapter 56: Afraid My Brother Suffers, but Also Afraid My Br

"Yes, yes, yes! Dr. Chen, it’s right here, it hurts so much!"

The mont Chen Mu’s hand touched Hu Xiaorou’s rib.

Hu Xiaorou grimaced in pain.

After Chen Mu pressed a few more tis, he withdrew his hand, "I’ll write up a case record for you first. You don’t need to move, just lie there."

"Okay, Dr. Chen." Hu Xiaorou nodded obediently.

Chen Mu returned to his desk and, while typing on the keyboard, turned his head to the girl and said, "Your condition isn’t serious, it’s just a mild rib strain. Co for acupuncture for a couple of days here, use a heating pad to apply heat to the painful area, and it should heal in a few days."

As he was saying this.

Chen Mu paused his typing and turned to look at Hu Xiaorou, "But I still can’t quite understand, what exactly did you do to strain your ribs to this extent?"

"I don’t think our school has any discipline that would strain your ribs, right?"

Hu Xiaorou blushed slightly, avoiding Chen Mu’s gaze, "I co from a province where even beef noodle soup can taste spicy..."

"And recently I’ve beco fond of the spicy roasted goose leg at the school gate."

Chen Mu couldn’t figure out the connection, "And then..."

Hu Xiaorou: "And then I started buying roasted goose legs at the school gate every day. After eating the spicy food, I began coughing like crazy, and then..."

Chen Mu held his forehead: "And then your ribs got strained from coughing?"

Hu Xiaorou nodded.

Chen Mu was speechless, "Does the school gate really have such delicious goose legs? Which stall did you buy them from? I’ll go try it when I’m free; these goose legs must be really sothing."

Hu Xiaorou’s eyes lit up imdiately, "Dr. Chen! I have the Goose Leg Auntie’s WeChat group; she tells us when she’s at the school gate. If you want so, you can line up early."

"Do you want to join the WeChat group?"

Chen Mu took out his phone, "Co on, let scan the code!"

—

"Older doctors say it’s not necessary to eat goose legs; younger doctors ask what’s so good about them and want to try!"

"I’m dying of laughter in the comnts; didn’t anyone notice Dr. Chen just swallowed while talking about the goose legs? He must be truly tempted!"

"I’m also a bit curious, what’s so delicious about these goose legs?"

"I’m from Hai City University. Just thinking about the goose legs makes swallow silently. I don’t know how to describe the taste, but it’s truly delicious, believe !"

"Is it that good? I don’t believe it; I’ll go line up at the University gate after work!"

"..."

—

"Ahem, Dr. Chen, trust , the goose legs are really delicious!"

"If you can’t make it in ti to line up this afternoon, you can ask soone in the Goose Leg Auntie’s group if they can bring one for you."

As Chen Mu was taking the acupuncture kit, Hu Xiaorou kept recomnding her beloved goose legs to him.

When he saw the bloodstains on the acupuncture kit, Chen Mu paused for a mont.

He carefully disinfected each used Silver Needle, "Got it, once Goose Leg Auntie sends a ssage, I’ll definitely try one."

"Dr. Chen, trust , they’re really delicious!"

A few needles and Hu Xiaorou was sent on her way.

Su Bingbing impatiently called in the next student.

The boy who entered had dark circles under his eyes.

Seeing his appearance, Chen Mu raised an eyebrow, "Insomnia?"

The boy nodded eagerly.

Chen Mu: "ID card or health insurance card, please."

The boy handed over his health insurance card, and Chen Mu swiped it, pulling up the boy’s information in the system.

He added a new blank page for a case file, "Yuan Xiaoquan, do you know what specifically caused your insomnia?"

Yuan Xiaoquan nodded, then quickly shook his head, "I kind of know why I’m insomnia, but I feel my mindset is just really unwarranted..."

Chen Mu squinted.

It seed like he sensed so gossip.

Chen Mu: "Tell about it?"

Yuan Xiaoquan rubbed his hands, "Isn’t it encouraged for university students to start businesses now? A few of us from the dorm talked about it, and it’s profitable to film short videos now, so we got into short video, self-dia entrepreneurship."

"Not to ntion zero cost, if it hits big, there’s no worry about finding a job after graduation."

Chen Mu nodded slightly, "That makes sense..."

So top influencers make even more than celebrities.

Their thinking wasn’t wrong.

Yuan Xiaoquan’s expression turned bitter, "I didn’t have insomnia before, until last week, when the guy living in the bunk above mine suddenly beca popular!"

"One video can get tens of thousands of likes! A single promotion deal can hit six figures!"

"Honestly, as a brother, I’m genuinely happy for him. He’s making money and breaking through, but..."

"But..."

Yuan Xiaoquan bit his lip several tis before finally expressing his true feelings, "But when I’m lying alone at night, thinking we all did the short videos together, and now he’s about to be making millions a month while I can’t even get a single ad deal, I just, I just..."

Yuan Xiaoquan clenched his fists, "I get so jealous I can’t sleep!"

With tearful eyes, Yuan Xiaoquan looked at Chen Mu, "Dr. Chen, do you understand? My buddy’s living the good life now, I’m really happy for him, but when I can’t sleep at night, I’m genuinely envious!"

Chen Mu raised an eyebrow, "Got it! You’re afraid of seeing your buddy struggle, but also afraid of him driving a luxury car!"

—

"Afraid of seeing your buddy struggle, but also afraid of him driving a luxury car! Dr. Chen nailed it with that summary!"

"This student isn’t a bad person. He’d rather suffer from jealousy himself than try to sabotage his roommate!"

"Though this mindset isn’t advisable, I thought about it, and if my childhood friend suddenly won five million..."

"Gah! Can’t think about it! Just the thought makes furious!"

"Started at the sa point, but the results are worlds apart. It’s understandable, but losing sleep over this makes want to laugh, guys!"

"That’s the advantage of being young. At my age, with mortgages, car loans, raising kids, and saving for parents’ retirent, I can’t afford to let myself stop or have ti to worry..."

"..."

—

Suddenly, Yuan Xiaoquan emotionally grabbed Chen Mu’s hand.

Chen Mu had to exert a lot of effort to pull his hand back, "Hey there, man to man, let’s keep a little distance and talk properly."

Yuan Xiaoquan, "Dr. Chen, I know the school dical office has sleeping pills. I’m begging you, prescribe so so I can go back and actually sleep!"

"Look at my dark circles, if I keep not sleeping, I might just drop dead!"

Chen Mu sighed.

He pointed to the wrist pillow on his desk, "Sleeping pills aren’t sothing I can just prescribe on a whim. First, put your hand up here, and I’ll check your pulse."
