A group of professionals didn’t even need an X-ray to spot the issue right away.
"No big problems, just a strained muscle in the lower back. Rest and limit your activities. If possible, co to our departnt for localized physiotherapy like infrared therapy, acupuncture, and massage for a few days."
Lu Jing nodded,
"Okay, we got it."
The doctor in the CT room suddenly started teasing:
"Doctor Lu, you’re being modest, aren’t you? You’re the expert here!"
Sweat...
That comnt was awkward whether to acknowledge it or not.
Luckily, it was just a joke and nobody expected a real response.
The CT room was busy, and since Jiang Ye had cut in line for the scan, they certainly wouldn’t want to delay any further.
A few minutes later, Lu Jing wheeled Jiang Ye straight to the orthopedic departnt.
He then handed him over to a colleague, concisely reported the CT results, and hurried down to the outpatient clinic.
After all, it was still work hours.
Jiang Ye was still a bit stunned by being left behind by his wife.
The male doctor taking over chuckled and said:
"Captain Jiang, let’s get you to the ward first, shall we?"
Jiang Ye ca to his senses, not refusing anything; after all, it was personally arranged by his wife!
"Sure, thanks for the trouble."
"Not at all, you’re our orthopedic son-in-law; we’re all family here, so no need for formalities."
Pfft!
Right, no argunt there.
After that, a series of infrared therapy, massages, and acupuncture treatnts were arranged.
The firefighters from the brigade ca to the ward about half an hour later, visibly worried.
"Captain Jiang, are you really hurt? How serious is it?"
One of them asked urgently as soon as they entered.
Although they often like to curse Devil Jiang in their hearts, everyone had been through life and death together as brothers!
And, more often than not, it was a mixture of love, hate, and deep respect.
Who doesn’t like a strong person, right?
Jiang Ye was lying on the hospital bed, with the infrared lamp warming his back, and tilted his head to the side:
"Why did you all co? Is everything cleaned up?" he asked.
"Yeah, yeah, it’s all taken care of."
"We’ve also handed things over to the police."
"Captain Jiang, did you... injure your back?"
Huh?
At that question, the atmosphere in the ward suddenly turned a bit odd.
The back, for most n, is sothing they prefer not to discuss lightly.
Especially not when it’s injured.
It was as if their male pride was being ground into the dust!
As expected, Jiang Ye’s icy glare imdiately swept towards the tactless team mber who had brought it up.
Cough cough.
The team mber shuddered in fear.
"You can go back now."
If they didn’t leave then, they couldn’t bla him for being inhospitable.
For Jiang Ye, it was just a minor back strain, even if his leg had been broken, he could still dominate this group of oblivious fools!
But still, he was in his wife’s departnt and couldn’t make too much of a fuss.
The team mbers promptly slipped away:
"Captain Jiang, we’ll head back then."
"We’ll co visit you again tomorrow."
Please don’t.
Jiang Ye didn’t even get a chance to refuse before the group had disappeared.
Finally, the ward was completely quiet.
At the mont, Jiang Ye was the only patient in the double room.
....
It was officially the end of the working day at five-thirty.
Lu Jing packed up his things and headed out of the outpatient clinic briskly, then went upstairs.
As he approached the ward, the man who had been asleep inside suddenly opened his eyes:
"You’re off work?" he asked.
Lu Jing curled the corners of his mouth slightly:
"Yeah, how do you feel now?"
