Chapter 578 - 576: Critically Ill
In the hospital, Jiang Yixiu is a jack-of-all-trades, being sent wherever the director needs him. Not long ago, a female doctor from the urology department took maternity leave, and they were short-handed, so the director ordered him to cover for her.Living every day between seeing men take off and put on pants, from initially not being used to now eating while treating patients, one can imagine what he has gone through.
But he never expected that all his previous experiences were just trivial nonsense. Today is the real test.
Deliberately dragging his feet to see the other patients, he finally had to face reality—
Jiang Yixiu wore a bitter face, "Old Xiao, I’m begging you, go to another hospital, don’t make things difficult for your little buddy. It’s really awkward treating a friend."
Actually, Xiao Jinghuai also felt extremely uncomfortable. He furrowed his brow and said, "...I might have a psychological problem."
"If you have a psychological issue, go see a psychologist! What are you doing here? I’m timid and can’t handle your trouble-making," Jiang Yixiu pleaded.
Xiao Jinghuai suddenly stood up from his seat, "Among your medical friends, do you have anyone with issues regarding sexual orientation?"
"..." Jiang Yixiu took a while to react, "Wha-what do you mean? Issues with sexual orientation? Do you mean... Gay?"
"Yes." Xiao Jinghuai’s gaze was straightforward.
Jiang Yixiu nearly fainted from shock. After pulling himself together, he teased, "Old Xiao, I’ve told you before, some things will break if they’re not used for too long. See, now there’s a problem, isn’t there? When did you discover it? Just recently interested, or has it been some time?"
"...Just recently." Even with this awkward topic, Xiao Jinghuai could talk seriously.
Especially at such times.
Jiang Yixiu looked quite experienced, "Then there’s probably still hope. Tonight, I’ll find you a newbie to get a feel for it."
Xiao Jinghuai’s eyes flashed with a storm, "No need."
"Alright, alright." Jiang Yixiu shook his head with a smile, "I know you’re saving yourself for Little Cutie, but are you sure she’ll come back? It’s already been four years. Why not start fresh? After all, there are two kids at home, and they need a mom."
For the past four years, one of the things Xiao Jinghuai hated most was people saying she wouldn’t come back. Every time he heard it, he got furious.
He actually had considered it himself. Four years is enough to change many things, like her possibly marrying again, maybe not just one man, or having kids.
Whenever he thought of these things, he felt like committing murder.
"Uh, sorry—"
Suddenly, a strange male voice disrupted the odd atmosphere in the clinic. Jiang Yixiu glanced toward the door, "Dude, shouldn’t you go for a makeover first?"
Oh my! This guy is uglier than anything I’ve ever seen!
Song Song cursed Jiang Yixiu’s ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart and ignored him, "President Xiao, are you done? Assistant Xing just called and said there’s something urgent at the company that needs your attention."
"Uh..." Jiang Yixiu sensed something amiss, his eyes darting between the two men, and immediately got up to close the door with a "bang".
Then he turned back to the seated man, "Old Xiao, you can’t possibly be into this...?"
Otherwise, how could he, with his taste, hire such a fierce-looking man?
Xiao Jinghuai remained composed as ever, as if nothing happened. He stood up and straightened his suit, "I told you I’m not as idle as you."
"Shit!"
Jiang Yixiu felt like he was going crazy.
It’s one thing to be interested in a good-looking man, but this time it’s a plain-looking guy—
After Xiao Jinghuai walked out, Jiang Yixiu immediately blew up in a private group chat, "Hey, hey! You two better put your personal grievances aside. Old Xiao is seriously ill and needs our combined effort."
