Chapter 242: Massive Hemorrhage
They not only talked about the patients, but also about the foods that could easily cause food poisoning, as well as the best first aid measures to implement.
The dinner lasted for more than ten minutes, and so they talked for more than ten minutes.
After it was over, no one felt that there was anything unusual about it. It was as if they did it on a regular basis.
“You guys go back first. I’m going to get something from the car.”
Jiang Tingxu nodded, and Qiao Ran waved her hand.
After Pei Rusi left, the two of them held hands. To be more precise, Qiao Ran took the initiative.
“Dr Jiang, you still have an early shift tomorrow, right?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Then I’ll wait for you to go with me.”
Huh?
“Have you forgotten about ‘Super Hot Girls’ tomorrow night? Although the show only starts at night, we have to go there in advance. The organizers have issued a pass, so we can only go in.”
Those who had never chased after celebrities were indeed clueless. She asked in a low voice,
“How long do we have to wait?”
“At least two hours earlier. If we go earlier, we can still sit in the front seat.”
Jiang Tingxu was sweating when she heard that they had to wait a few hours in advance. However, she had already agreed to it, so she couldn’t say no:
“Go home and sleep for a while after work tomorrow morning. I’ll call you after work.”
“No, no, no. If I go home and sleep, I won’t be able to get up until the afternoon. I’ll just rest and sleep for a while. I’ll wait for you while I’m at it.”
Jiang Tingxu didn’t think it was appropriate to reject anything:
“Alright,” she agreed.
As expected, when she returned to the department, she started to get busy with barely any time for rest.
Because the outpatient department had already gotten off work, many patients had come to the emergency department.
That was why it was said that the emergency department at night was the busiest!
In fact, in many cases, patients could go directly to the inpatient department to solve the problem, but for some reason, many patients liked to go to the emergency department.
At this time, the most common patients were those with fever, stomachaches, and menstrual cramps. There were also patients with stomachaches.
If the fever was serious, they would need to get their blood checked then get a drip.
If it was mild, they would be prescribed some medicine take home.
As for the rest, they could only follow the usual practice of infusions to reduce inflammation and relieve pain. More accurate examinations would have to wait till the following day.
In just a short while, they had received nearly twenty patients. They wrote out the examination forms and gave medical advice... They were so busy that they did not even have time to drink a mouthful of water.
These were only half of the patients who had been transferred over. Pei Rusi’s side was not much different from this side.
In the corridor, the sound of the nurses’ hurried footsteps could be heard almost every once in a while.
When the previous patients had all been checked, and those who needed a drip had been put on one, there was another wave of ringing bells.
Some people were even more impatient. They stood at the door and started shouting:
“Can you hurry up? I’ve been waiting for half an hour already?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. There are too many patients. Everyone has to wait for their turn. Don’t be impatient.”
Jiang Tingxu finally got some free time. She stood up to get some water and drank a full glass in one go. Finally, she quenched her thirst.
Then, she looked at the time on the wall: 8:30!
So three hours had already passed?
She looked out of the window. It was really dark. A crescent moon was hanging in the sky, and there were a few particularly bright stars around it.
Then, the sound of family members crying their hearts out could be heard from the emergency department hall again.
When they heard this sound, they knew that the situation would not be good.
At the same time, the nurse also came over:
“Dr Jiang, the patient is bleeding heavily.”
“I’m coming.”
When Jiang Tingxu came out, she saw that there were still a lot of patients waiting in the opposite office. Well, Department Director Pei was obviously busier than she was.
