Chapter 206 The Mayor’s Wife as Matchmaker ( - 3)
Song Xiaodong returned to the hospital the next day to give Shen Dongyang another round of acupuncture, with Sun Dongxiang and Shen Yue both present.
As soon as Song Xiaodong had finished administering the acupuncture, Shen Dongyang immediately praised him nonstop, saying, "Doctor Song, you are truly a divine doctor! After yesterday’s acupuncture session, I felt much more clear-headed, and today, after this session, I feel like I’m no longer a patient. I’m ready to be discharged from the hospital now."
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, "You should wait one more day. Tomorrow’s session will be the final one to reinforce the treatment, ensuring that you don’t suffer any after-effects. Otherwise, with such major surgery on your head, it’s easy to experience headaches on cloudy and rainy days."
When Sun Dongxiang heard this, she was startled and quickly said, "That’s right, this matter can’t be taken lightly. Such after-effects aren’t easy to treat, and the pain can be unbearable. Doctor Song is right; tomorrow’s session is a must."
Shen Dongyang laughed and said, "I was just saying, although I’m anxious to leave, this has already exceeded my expectations. I can certainly endure one more day."
At that moment, Shen Yue handed Song Xiaodong a towel. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, closed his eyes to rest, and Shen Dongyang and the others did not disturb him further.
When Song Xiaodong opened his eyes again, Sun Dongxiang immediately said, "Doctor Song, with your excellent medical skill, why don’t you work in a hospital? Is it because there’s some difficulty? You can talk to Old Shen about it."
Song Xiaodong smiled and said, "No, it’s just that my methods can’t be widely shown to treat people, and they take a toll on me as well. It’s really not suitable for me to work in a hospital."
Sun Dongxiang said, "Then, even if you help critically ill patients only occasionally, would you like to join the hospital?"
"Thank you for the offer, but treating people is a matter of fate for me. There are so many people becoming seriously ill every day, and I don’t have the energy for that."
