Novel Bin Chapter 368: The Tragedy of Losing Weight
Qin Haodong said with a smile, “I’m sorry. I’m Tang Feng, a new doctor of this hospital.”
Upon seeing that his attitude was good enough, Zhang Tingting glanced at him and said, “Are you from the traditional Chinese medicine department?”
Qin Haodong asked in surprise, “How did you know that?”
“Don’t be so surprised. I can smell the traditional Chinese medicine all over you from afar. At our hospital, no other departments would be so idle except the traditional Chinese medicine department.”
Qin Haodong said with an exaggerated expression, “You are really smart.”
Although she knew that Qin Haodong was flattering her, Zhang Tingting was very happy. No one would say such words to her under ordinary circumstances. There was a smile on her cold face as she asked, “What can I do for you?”
“Well, I’d like to have a look at the inquiry records of our archive. Can you…”
Before Qin Haodong could finish, the smile on Zhang Tingting’s face disappeared and she said, “No way. There are regulations at the hospital. If you want to access the inquiry records, you must get the approval of the director of the hospital. You are not allowed to view them without permission.”
Even though he had been rejected, Qin Haodong did not leave. Instead, he sniffled and asked, “Did you use French perfume? Why is it so fragrant?”
Zhang Tingting, who was slightly stunned, said, “Are you kidding? The salary of a nurse like me is only a few thousand yuan a month. How can I afford French perfume? I don’t use perfume at all.”
“You’re so fragrant without perfume?” Qin Haodong had a dramatic look on his face. “Were you born with this body fragrance? It’s said that only the favorite concubine of Emperor Minghuang and Princess Fragrance had this kind of fragrance.”
“Is that true? What you said makes me feel shy.” When she was praised by Qin Haodong, Zhang Tingting’s face blushed. She then sighed and said, “To tell you the truth, I really can’t help you. If the director of the hospital found out, I would be laid off.”
It seemed like Qin Haodong hadn’t heard what she’d said, as he went on to say, “You know what? I’m a Chinese medicine practitioner, and I have an ancestral prescription that’s very effective in losing weight.”
Upon hearing his words, Zhang Tingting immediately cried out excitedly, “Is that true? Chinese medicine can also help people lose weight?”
Some people said that losing weight was a lifelong pursuit for women. This was no exaggeration, especially for a fat girl like her. She had tried many methods to lose weight, but they had not been effective.
“What is the biggest tragedy for a woman that wants to lose weight? When she loses weight, her chest becomes flatter while her waist becomes thicker!”
“Yeah, yeah, that’s it. It’s so sad.”
Zhang Tingting had a profound feeling. Even though she was fat, it was alright because she was busty. However, every time she tried to lose fat, her chest became flatter while her waist became thicker. At last, her figure looked just like a big water butt.
Qin Haodong said again, “My ancestral secret prescription cannot only help you lose fat, but also enlarge your chest. If you keep taking it for a few days, you will have a nice figure.”
“How can that be? Are you lying to me?”
Although Zhang Tingting spoke negatively, she was excited, surprised, and eager. This weight-losing drug was the magic drug every woman needed.
“I’m not exaggerating. What I said is true,” Qin Haodong said, reaching out with his right hand and handing over a small porcelain bottle to Zhang Tingting through the window. Then, he said, “There are 20 pills in it. Take one a day. In 20 days, you will have a nice figure without any side effects.”
“Is… Is that true?”
Zhang Tingting took the small porcelain bottle with trembling hands. She still couldn’t believe it.
“Believe me, it’s true. This is a pure Chinese medicine without any toxic ingredients or side effects. If you don’t believe it, you can take one now and feel the effect.”
Qin Haodong was like a bad uncle who sold fake medicine. His words were very attractive.
“Are you sure that there’s nothing wrong with your pills?”
Although Zhang Tingting’s heart was full of desire, she was still a bit doubtful.
Qin Haodong said, “I’m a doctor at the traditional Chinese medicine department, and we’re also colleagues. How could I deceive my colleague? You can think about it. How would I benefit from deceiving you?”
Zhang Tingting thought about it. On one hand, she had only a couple hundred yuan in her pocket. On the other hand, even ruffians didn’t care about her when she walked at night.
Upon thinking of this, she couldn’t resist the temptation of losing weight at last. She opened the bottle stopper of the porcelain bottle and took a small black pill.
It turned out that Qin Haodong wasn’t trying to deceive her. This diet drug had been refined by him last night according to the Cultivation World formula. It was very effective when it came to losing weight. He had not just been boasting.
About ten minutes after taking the pill, Zhang Tingting’s expression slowly changed and she asked nervously, “Is there something wrong with your medicine? Why does my chest feel stuffy? I feel like I can’t breathe.”
Qin Haodong glanced at her and said, “Because my medicine works. Your chest is becoming bigger and your bra is too small, so you’re feeling stuffy.”
Zhang Tingting touched it carefully. What Qin Haodong had said was true. She did not care about shyness anymore as she raised her hand excitedly to touch her chest and abdomen. It was true that her waist had become thinner and her chest had become bigger.
“Big Brother, thank you so much. Your medicine is really effective.”
“Of course, this is my ancestral secret prescription. As long as you take it for 20 days in a row, I’m sure you will have a nice figure that everyone will admire,” Qin Haodong said again, “How about you let me have a look at the records of the archive now?”
“Well…” Zhang Tingting immediately calmed down and said, “This is really against the rules of the hospital. If the director of the hospital finds out, I will lose my job.”
Qin Haodong said, “This is just about a job? I’ll find a better job for you if you get fired. I promise.”
“But…” Zhang Tingting was still indecisive. She attached great importance to this job.
“If you don’t agree, you can give back the medicine in your hand and I won’t read the records.”
Qin Haodong reached for Zhang Tingting’s medicine bottle as he spoke.
“No, I’ll show you.”
Zhang Tingting hurriedly put the small porcelain bottle into her pocket. This bottle of medicine was her lifeline, so it would not be taken back no matter what.
Thus, she opened the drawer, took out a registration file, gave it to Qin Haodong, and said, “You can only read it here. Be quick.”
“Don’t worry, I will read it rapidly.”
Qin Haodong took the archive record and quickly looked it over, turning it at an astonishing speed. He just glanced at each page and put all the contents in his mind. In less than a minute, he had read the whole record.
Zhang Tingting was stunned to see that. She doubted whether Qin Haodong could see the record clearly.
Although Qin Haodong gave the record back, his brain was working rapidly. About a dozen people had visited the archive in the last month, and all of them were doctors working at the hospital. Even though the scope had been narrowed down a lot, it was still uncertain who had read the information of the deceased.
He asked, “Is there any way to know what those people read?”
Zhang Tingting shook her head and said, “There is not such a detailed record. As long as one is approved by the director of the hospital, one can go and check any files they want.”
“Oh!” Qin Haodong then asked, “Is it possible that someone might check the files in the archive without a record? Can someone check the files online?”
Zhang Tingting said, “That’s impossible. Although this is a private hospital, there are very strict regulations. Every time a doctor accesses the files, he must fill the approval registration. There is only one electronic version of the files in the archive, which is kept by the director of the hospital. It can’t be seen by anyone else.”
Qin Haodong nodded and said, “Well, thank you!”
Zhang Tingting said, “Well, I don’t even know your name yet!”
Qin Haodong said, “My name is Tang Feng. If you need help, you can come to see me at the traditional Chinese medicine department.”
Then, he turned to leave.
Zhang Tingting said, “Doctor Tang, please keep today’s business a secret for me.”
“Don’t worry. I was here to sell diet pills. Nothing else happened.”
Qin Haodong smiled at her and left the archive.
Zhang Tingting stared at his back for a while. The new doctor looked ordinary, but he was fascinating, which was completely unlike the men she had met before.
As Qin Haodong walked along, he went over the doctors’ information in his mind. Some of these people were surgeons and some were physicians. It was really difficult to check them one by one in three days.
When he walked to the main building from the small building of the archive, a dozen policemen rushed over with a stretcher. A wounded policeman with a dagger in the left side of his chest was lying on the stretcher. The dagger had been completely stabbed into his chest. It seemed that the man was seriously injured.
These people rushed into the emergency room, carrying the injured man. They had just passed by, when Nalan Wuxia ran in with Wang Jianfeng. It seemed that the injured man had been a member of the Jiangnan crime squad.
Upon seeing that someone was injured, Qin Haodong followed everyone, standing outside the crowd to watch. Everyone’s attention was on the injured man. Even Nalan Wuxia did not notice Qin Haodong.
The emergency room was currently full of policemen. Feng Zixiong, the detective of the crime squad, had been stabbed while investigating the murder suspect. Nalan Wuxia had been discussing the case with Wang Jianfeng, but they came here when they heard this.
The wounded man was a policeman, so the hospital also attached great importance to him. Each department showed high efficiency. About ten minutes later, a stack of examination materials was sent to several doctors in white coats.
“Doctor, what about my colleague?”
Nalan Wuxia spoke up nervously. She had just seen Feng Zixiong’s state. The dagger was right on the side of his heart. This kind of injury could easily become fatal.
“I’m Lu Fei, the doctor in charge of his treatment,” a middle-aged doctor in a white coat said, “This treatment plan was developed by several of our surgical experts and adjusted to the patient’s condition. Take a look.”
Wang Jianfeng said, “Doctor Lu, we are all laymen for specific treatments. Please explain it to us.”
