University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 91: You Come to the School Doctor for Fillings Just Because It's Free?


"No objections! I have absolutely no objections!"

"I messed up this time, I deserve the punishment!"

Chen Mu was so agitated his hands were shaking.

He proactively ran to the water dispenser and poured a glass of water for both Zhang He and Che Tianchang.

He eagerly handed it to them, "You've both worked hard, have some water."

Zhang He smiled and thanked him.

On the other hand, Che Tianchang, holding the cup of water Chen Mu handed him.

Looked at Chen Mu with disdain.

He snorted, "The last time I came to see you, you at least made me tea. Now, it's just plain water?"

Chen Mu rolled his eyes at him and snatched the cup back, "If you don't appreciate the plain water from my school infirmary, then don't drink it!"

"Hmm?" Che Tianchang was stunned, "Dr. Chen's hospitality is truly unique!"

"That's hilarious! Giving someone a glass of plain water and then taking it back."

"What's up with the guy from the health bureau, did he eat firecrackers or something? Why's he so hot-tempered right off the bat?"

"Haven't you noticed yet? These two are probably old acquaintances. Even though Che Tianchang sounds harsh, he's actually looking out for Dr. Chen."

"Honestly, when those two penalties were handed down, I couldn't stop laughing; they're really something!"

"Dr. Chen has been punished, and you're still laughing? Do you even have a heart?"

"A three-month delay means the punishment is executed at the end of the semester! A two-month punishment duration equals the two months of summer vacation, got it?"

"Huh? My head is itchy! It's like my brain is suddenly growing!"

"..."

Chen Mu pointed towards the door with a smile, "If there's nothing else, you can leave now, there are still lots of students waiting for me to treat them!"

"Still with the same attitude!"

"One day, you'll end up sacrificing yourself for these patients!"

Che Tianchang left the school infirmary with a sullen face, not forgetting to slam the door behind him to express his dissatisfaction.

"Congratulations, Dr. Chen." Su Bingbing said to Chen Mu with a smile.

Chen Mu changed into a clean white coat, returned to his desk, and opened his computer, "Reporter Su, please help me call in Jia Baiwan."

"Alright, Dr. Chen."

Su Bingbing happily continued her role as his little assistant.

Suddenly.

Chen Mu's phone buzzed.

Chen Mu unlocked the screen and saw a dialogue box that hadn't lit up in two years.

That person sent him a message.

"During these two months of punishment, would you consider learning something new with me?"

Chen Mu's hand hovered over the chat box for a long time.

In the end, he only replied with one word.

"Okay."

"Dr. Chen, here's my ID." As soon as Jia Baiwan entered, he proactively handed his ID to Chen Mu.

After writing an electronic medical record for Jia Baiwan, Chen Mu returned the ID to him.

And gave Jia Baiwan a School Hospital Referral Form, "Your fall doesn't seem to have caused any major issues, but since you fell from a height and hit your head."

"I suggest you go to a top-tier hospital and get a CT scan to rule out a concussion."

Jia Baiwan took the referral form and left.

Su Bingbing: "Next!"

Outside the door.

A petite girl bounced into the school infirmary.

It was the female student who just promised to petition for Chen Mu at the infirmary door.

As soon as she came in.

Her eyes lit up when she saw Chen Mu, "Dr. Chen, can you still treat us? Is the punishment not severe?"

"I just knew it!"

"For someone like Dr. Chen, who has the initial intention of treating and saving people, even if violated, special circumstances would be considered!"

"Thank you for still being in the school hospital, Dr. Chen!"

"If you're not here, who would we students see when we get sick!"

Chen Mu saw the girl's eyes welling up with tears.

Feeling helpless, "Why are you more excited than I, the person involved?"

"First, give me your ID or health insurance card, then tell me where you're uncomfortable."

The girl handed her ID to Chen Mu.

Chen Mu placed it on the machine.

The girl's identity information automatically popped up from the school hospital's system, Mi Tingting.

Chen Mu: "Mi Tingting, where are you uncomfortable?"

Mi Tingting looked seriously at Chen Mu, "Dr. Chen, I have a toothache, can our school fill a tooth?"

Chen Mu: "..."

For a moment.

Chen Mu really thought he misheard.

He looked at Mi Tingting and couldn't help but confirm, "Student, are you saying you came to the school hospital to fill a tooth?"

Mi Tingting nodded seriously, not feeling she was asking anything out of the ordinary, "Yes! A toothache is also a kind of discomfort, right?"

"Dr. Chen, it's not that I'm trying to take advantage of the school."

"But you MUST know the current pricing for dental services. I've been to several dental clinics and hospitals, and the outcome is the same; my mouth has this hole that needs root canal treatment!"

"Do you know how much a root canal costs, one thousand bucks!"

"I'm just thinking, if our school can fill teeth, I could save some money, right?"

Chen Mu felt a headache coming on, "Student... let me give you a little science lesson..."

"A dentist needs a dental practitioner's certificate."

"However, a dental practitioner's certificate and our kind of general practitioner's license cannot be held simultaneously."

"So..."

Mi Tingting's head drooped instantly.

She looked devastated, "So, I still have to do part-time work to earn money for the dentist..."

Chen Mu was curious, "Student, can't you talk to your family about this?"

Mi Tingting shook her head bitterly, "No, my family isn't well-off. They are still taking medication themselves, I can't burden them further."

"I see..."

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, then pointed to the examination bed, "Lie down, let me take a look at your teeth."

Mi Tingting promptly and obediently lay down on the examination bed.

Chen Mu took a clean wooden stick.

Used a flashlight to examine Mi Tingting's oral condition.

"Alright, get up..."

Chen Mu pointed to Mi Tingting's mouth, "Did none of the dentists you visited before mention that your cavity is a wisdom tooth?"

Mi Tingting shook her head, "No."

Chen Mu sighed, "Generally, if there's an issue with wisdom teeth, you don't have to fill them, you can just remove them."

"A root canal might cost over a thousand, but if you remove it, it's only two or three hundred."

Mi Tingting was overjoyed, "Thank you, Dr. Chen! You've been a huge help!"

As Chen Mu was about to close Mi Tingting's personal page.

Mi Tingting sat back down in front of him, looking at him with eyes full of hope, "Dr. Chen, I've also been experiencing some stomach pain lately, can you check my pulse?"
