Chapter 1878: 1812 Hippocratic Oath (Monthly Ticket 23500 Bonus ×47)

"……" Su Yun was dumbfounded.

Boss sure knows how to play! Listening to that, it's even more twisted than what I usually do.

Asphyxiation—this is damn high-end! Su Yun knows many circles have kinky play, but asphyxiation is rare. Not for any other reason, just because the mortality rate is too high.

Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian stared for a moment, then glared at Zheng Ren.

Zheng Ren was calm, quietly looking at him. Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's emotions seemed to be losing control, his lips trembling slightly, his fangs about to show again.

"This question concerns Ms. Fan Di's diagnosis and treatment; I have no intention of invading her privacy, but I need to know the correct answer—if you still love her." Zheng Ren slowly clenched his fists, his tone gentle.

Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's skin tone began to change; his pale, bloodless skin gradually turned gray.

Zheng Ren didn't continue speaking, but instead locked eyes with Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian.

Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's pupils began to shrink rapidly; Zheng Ren didn't know what kind of reaction this was—could he be about to transform?

"Whatever I see or hear, regardless of any business relation, I consider it my duty to keep confidential; I will keep it secret. If I strictly uphold this oath, may the gods grant my life and medical art supreme glory; should I violate it, may heaven and earth, spirits and gods, strike me down." Zheng Ren said candidly.

"The Hippocratic Oath—I believe you've heard of it."

"I'm a doctor; I need to know the patient's medical history!" Zheng Ren said sternly, his words sharp like a biting winter wind.

Su Yun had no doubt that if Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian made any move, Boss's fist would smash his face again.

This guy seems even more violent than when we went to Nanyang last time, and his combat strength is stronger too.

Just asking for a medical history—why is it so hard?

But this is only natural, especially for larger families who care more about such things.

Su Yun focused, seeing Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's color fade from gray back to his previous pallor, bloodless look, and then relaxed.

If he really went all out, Peerless would instantly kill Boss—that would be boring.

Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian nodded.

"All right." Zheng Ren, slightly excited, said: "Su Yun, tell them to use rituximab combined with 70 mg/d of prednisone to treat Ms. Fan Di."

Su Yun nodded and immediately began replying to that side.

"Doctor Zheng, can you tell me how all this is related?" Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian said through gritted teeth, "If Ms. Fan Di's condition..."

"Doctors can't guarantee pulling a patient back from the brink of death." Zheng Ren said sternly, "If you dare threaten me again, I'll throw you off the plane and see if you turn into a bunch of little bats flying back."

Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's forehead veins bulged prominently.

"Save your strength." Zheng Ren said: "Force can't solve everything; the Bruhl family certainly wouldn't want you to do this. Besides, I'm just a doctor—everything I do is for your loved one. And you, damn it, keep obstructing me!"

Zheng Ren was angrier than Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian; his tone icy, he took a deep breath, as if trying to calm his own anger.

"I'm on this mission for Mr. Luo Qieke Bruhl. Out of humanitarian spirit, I accepted your request. But look—what you're doing, damn it, is that really a request?"

A string of angry words hit Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's face like stones.

His muscles finally relaxed, but he refused to look at Zheng Ren, instead closing his eyes.

Silence fell in the cabin.

Zheng Ren broke out in a cold sweat.

Just now he sensed an extremely dangerous aura emanating from Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's body.

But looking at it now, it's still better to reason. In other words, they're all damn scoundrels—just curse them twice and it's fine; if cursing isn't enough, throw a punch, whatever works.

Zheng Ren stood up, seemingly unwilling to meet Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's gaze, and sat beside Su Yun.

"Why bother again?" Su Yun sighed.

"We can't just watch the patient die like that." Zheng Ren also felt helpless, saying: "If things go smoothly, oral medication will gradually restore all indicators within 24 hours. Dialysis and hemofiltration will likely not be lacking on that side; in about a week the patient's condition will stabilize, and we can start rehab training."

Su Yun still didn't approve of Boss's approach.

But he didn't speak.

This trip was a terrible experience.

What the hell is going on? It's bizarre—asking for a medical history is this hard. Playing with asphyxiation even caused rhabdomyolysis; this is excessive.

Su Yun glanced at Zheng Ren and whispered, "What the hell is your deal?"

"I almost got killed at home; if I didn't help him, I couldn't live with myself." Zheng Ren and Su Yun whispered to each other.

Su Yun almost burst out laughing.

One hour and twenty-three minutes later, the new test results came back.

Su Yun kept staring at them, still doubtful of Zheng Ren's judgment.

But the three test indicators showed it was indeed rhabdomyolysis; over there, some doctor left a note saying they'd already begun symptomatic treatment.

Su Yun let out a breath and whispered, "Boss, do you think they'll transform?"

"No." Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's voice came from afar, "Doctor Zheng, thank you."

Zheng Ren smiled.

The case was indeed convoluted and bizarre; the key was Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian concealing his medical history, which seriously interfered with the doctor's assessment of the condition.

The doctors over there likely made the wrong judgment because of this.

And Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian doesn't understand medicine; he never imagined his lies could almost cause Ms. Fan Di's death.

The matter is settled; Zheng Ren believes that, under the drug's effect, Ms. Fan Di's bodily functions can recover to about 65%.

Of course, this is achievable only after long, arduous, outstanding rehabilitation training.

As for rehab training, Zheng Ren has no mind to attend to it; perhaps Ms. Fan Di needs a psychological therapist, who knows.

After a series of twists, Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian's attitude toward Zheng Ren and Su Yun improved considerably.

After everyone went to sleep, ten hours later they disembarked the plane, then rode six hours by car, only then seeing the majestic ancient castle amid the clouds.

"Just maintaining this place costs a fortune each year." Su Yun said, "Not even a sliver of sunlight can be seen—truly a fine residence for them."

"Well, estimate the days they can see sunlight each year don't exceed one month; for them that's not bad." Zheng Ren chuckled, "I'm not too fond of this place; after seeing the patient, I'll hurry back."

"Boss, did you really prepare to toss Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian out?"

Just kidding—I'm just a little scared inside. Besides, we're already out, and suddenly I'm speaking with a lot more bravado; it feels great not having to worry about being complained about.

Tsk tsk, you're not afraid of any international dispute?

At worst, I just quit the health group; thereafter I won't have to undertake these strange missions, which sounds okay.
