Chapter 535: Chapter 246: You Can’t Always Indulge—The Results Are In (Part 2)

This concerns the hospital’s regulations and admission criteria.

"Little one, have you had dinner?"

Li Jingsheng greeted the little girl gently.

"I ate a bit, but I threw it all up."

The girl’s mother replied from the side.

"If she can’t eat, the hospital should at least give her some glucose nutrient solution to support her! She’s so young, poor thing!"

Li Jingsheng said this both to the family and to Dr. Shao Bing.

Although Shao Bing was once a renowned doctor at Qiaobang Hospital, now he can’t even secure an inpatient qualification. It’s unclear whether he was unsuccessful before or his colleagues were just too indifferent and heartless.

"We’ve already given the child nutrient solution support! We’ve tried to rule out multiple causes for the illness, systemic lupus erythematosus, syphilis, fibromyalgia syndrome, and scrub typhus have all been basically ruled out. We’re still checking for tuberculosis, and the results should be out tomorrow."

Shao Bing said to Li Jingsheng.

It seems that the hospital hasn’t done nothing while the child is here.

But according to hospital regulations, there’s no way to admit her.

Mostly because no doctor dares to take the case lightly.

Getting a doctor’s position at Qiaobang Hospital is incredibly difficult, like fighting your way through a crowd. If they lost their job due to a moment of kindness, no doctor would want to suffer that consequence.

It’s understandable.

Li Jingsheng reached out to touch the little girl’s forehead.

"It’s a bit warm! Her temperature should indicate a fever, right?"

"Yes, hovering around 37.5 degrees."

Shao Bing nodded in confirmation.

"Can I check her lymph nodes?"

Li Jingsheng sought the mother’s permission.

The father seemed hostile and difficult to talk to, it’s better not to ask him.

The child’s mother turned to look at her husband.

After gaining his approval, she agreed.

"Alright. Please be careful, don’t hurt the child."

"I’ll be careful."

Li Jingsheng nodded, agreeing, and began checking the little girl’s lymph nodes.

Primarily her neck and armpits.

"Her lymph nodes are a bit swollen! The rigidity in her neck is quite severe too."

Li Jingsheng frowned slightly, also noticing a red spot on the back of the little girl’s neck. He remembered there being red spots on her face initially, but now they’re gone.

Considering the father’s cold gaze, he decided not to check the child’s chest and abdomen.
