Chapter 1016 - 748: Take a Look
Xia Liang’s words elicited quite a few laughs from the netizens, lightening the stifling atmosphere in the livestream room.After all, the two patients seen earlier had decent family backgrounds, but their wealth was entirely depleted due to medical treatments.
One even owed a few debts, which made many people uncomfortable.
"Hahaha, everyone heard that, right? Doctor Xia isn’t short on money! When sending gifts, everyone should hold back a bit. I promise, just one rocket at the end will do!"
"Wow, for the first time I’m seeing an anchor advising online friends to hold back on gifts, Doctor Xia is awesome!"
"No way, I’ll still send gifts, I have money!"
...
Seeing the netizens about to start sending gifts again, Xia Liang hurriedly closed the tip channel, effectively stopping this trend.
He then said, "Everyone comes to my livestream for treatment and for free remedies."
"There are also many here just for the spectacle, but please restrain the urge to send gifts."
"Alright, let’s welcome the third registrant."
Soon, the video connected, and a fair-skinned, thin-lipped, middle-aged woman with a rich demeanor and glamorous attire appeared on the livestream.
This woman’s online name is Sakura.
Upon her appearance, Sakura first complimented Xia Liang before she spoke.
"Doctor Xia, I’d like you to look at my son’s illness."
"For the past week, he hasn’t been eating much and looks like skin and bones. I’ve consulted several famous physicians, but none could pinpoint the cause. I hope you can save him!"
Upon hearing Sakura’s description, Xia Liang’s brow slightly furrowed.
Judging by her attire, this person is an exquisite egoist.
Such people indeed do not care much for their children.
However, from her words, bringing her son to multiple hospitals for treatment is already quite commendable.
Thus, adhering to the principle of doctors healing the sick, Xia Liang maintained his smile and said, "Alright, let your son come out, I’ll take a look."
Soon, Sakura was seen holding a Teddy dog entering from the end.
This Teddy’s fur was dull, looking quite listless.
To prove her point, Sakura placed a bowl of premium dog food in front of the dog, but indeed, the Teddy didn’t even glance at it, showing no interest at all.
However, upon seeing Sakura holding a dog in front of the camera during the livestream to seek Xia Liang’s help, netizens instantly became outraged!
"Damn, this woman is truly offensive. Physician Xu’s skills are for treating people, not dogs."
"Why didn’t you go to a vet instead of wasting Physician Xu’s valuable time and effort here?"
"Physician Xu sees very few patients. Many are probably waiting their turn, and you wasted such a precious opportunity to treat a dog. That’s just too much!"
"This Teddy is a luxury breed, probably worth around fifty cents!"
"Having some stinking money doesn’t make you remarkable, better get lost and stop disgracing yourself here!"
...
Sakura’s actions directly ignited anger among countless netizens, who launched a barrage of criticisms against her.
Xia Liang is a physician, specifically treating humans, not a veterinarian.
For this woman to treat him like a vet for her dog’s health is intolerable for anyone!
Despite her glamorous appearance, suggesting she’s very wealthy, she has definitely angered many.
Even Xia Liang himself felt some annoyance internally.
The woman’s actions were indeed a bit excessive.
His medical skills are not cheap!
Her use of this precious opportunity on a dog left Xia Liang feeling quite uncomfortable.
Yet, he didn’t show it on his face but instead smiled and said, "Sakura, your Teddy is ill, you should find a veterinarian."
"If you truly love it and treat it as your son, I believe there are vets out there who can cure its illness!"
Sakura shook her head, saying, "It’s too troublesome. I’ve been to several well-known veterinary shops in the Imperial Capital and couldn’t find one that can treat it."
"I’ve been through enough, I don’t have the energy anymore."
"That’s why I wanted to have you take a look."
"Your skills are excellent. You’ve cured so many people’s terminal illnesses, I’m sure you can cure my dog too."
This woman didn’t see the issue at all but felt it was only natural.
Even after noticing the numerous criticisms from netizens in the livestream, she didn’t care one bit.
In her view, these people were just bitter and irrational.
This anchor is a doctor, skilled in medicine; what’s the difference between treating a person and treating a dog?
If it’s an illness, why differentiate between dogs and humans?
Xia Liang furrowed his brow slightly, asking, "Are you sure you want me to handle the case?"
"What if I’m also unable to cure its illness?"
Sakura sighed indifferently, "If you’re unable to cure it here, that means its illness is beyond help."
"I’ve already tried my best. Afterward, I’ll consider euthanizing it."
"I know many in the livestream don’t care for me, but it’s my personal choice. Whether or not you like it doesn’t concern you all, does it?"
"To put it simply, I have five luxury dogs at home."
"Each is worth fifty cents, five make two Yuan; losing one doesn’t bother me."
"It’s just that this Teddy has accompanied me for a long time, and I’m reluctant to abandon it!"
Her arrogant, presumptuous tone directly inflamed the rage of netizens in the livestream!
"Damn! How can there be such trashy people in this world, just because they have some stinking money?!"
"Five dogs! Quite impressive; your behavior sure resembles that of your dog-son!"
"You only deserve to be a dog’s mother; you aren’t worthy of being a mom to a person!"
"Is this what the face of a wealthy person looks like? Can someone investigate who this woman is, who gave her the audacity to speak this way?!"
...
Even Xia Liang had a sudden change in attitude upon hearing the woman’s words.
Her belief that two stinking coins could disregard everything truly made people uncomfortable.
But being a physician, Xia Liang naturally couldn’t do anything to her.
However, since she’s come to him, if he couldn’t rip some money off her and perhaps make her feel a bit uneasy, it would indeed seem unfair to her generous rocket donation.
With that thought, Xia Liang slightly smiled and said, "Alright, let me check your dog-son’s condition."
Sakura seemed completely unbothered by Xia Liang’s words, not even noticing the sarcastic tone in Xia Liang’s speech.
