Chapter 74: A Phone Call From Yao Na (2/2)

When he entered the ward, he noticed that there were several beds. On top of one of those beds, there was already a patient sleeping on it. Cheng Yu looked out of the ward and realized that it was the common ward. This was very obvious, and much worse than what Han Xue stayed in previously.

“Why is your father staying in this ward. With so many people in this ward, how could he possibly rest well?” Cheng Yu frowned.

“We couldn’t afford the VIP ward. Besides, those high class wards are meant for people who are rich to stay in. Commoners like us are only able to afford this ward,” After he heard what Yao Na said, the frown on Cheng Yu’s face grew worse.

“Xiao Na, is this person your friend?” At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked over and asked.

The woman’s eyes were also red. On her face, there were a few wrinkles and one could see that there was visible white hair growing out on her head.

“Yes mum. This is my friend, Cheng Yu,” Yao Na was embarrassed to introduce him as a student. As a teacher, if she were to tell her mum that she was borrowing the money from her student, it would be the most embarrassing thing ever in her life.

“Hi Auntie. Regarding the issue with Uncle, you can be assured that with me around, nothing will happen to him,” Cheng Yu looked at the woman as he spoke.

“Mr. Cheng, I am really thankful for you making your way down to help us,” Mother Yao didn’t expect her daughter to find someone so young to help them.

“Auntie should just call me Xiao Yu. I am good friends with Na Na. Helping her with such matters is no trouble to me at all,” When Cheng Yu called out the name Na Na, he specially gave Yao Na a wink while doing so.

When Mother Yao heard Cheng Yu calling Yao Na so intimately, she looked at them for a few moments and realized Yao Na’s face had turned red.

“Since it’s like that, I shall call you Xiao Yu from now on.”

“Cheng Yu, can you help me to pay for my father’s operation first?” Yao Na looked at Cheng Yu and asked embarrassingly.

“Wait a moment first. Let me take a look at Uncle’s condition,” Cheng Yu walked towards the bed that Yao Na’s father was laying on. He looked around 50 years old and his skin was very tan and from that, Cheng Yu was able to tell that this man frequently stood under the hot sun.

Although the man had fallen asleep, he was still frowning in his sleep. It was most likely due to him experiencing huge pain from his legs.

When he saw the man’s legs were bandaged fully and also with spots of red showing on the outer layer of the bandages, Cheng Yu frowned. “Who handled this?”

“I did it!” At this moment, a middle-aged man in a white grown walked in. The man walked over and told Cheng Yu proudly, ”I did it. Is there a problem with it?”

Cheng Yu looked at the man in front of him and said indifferently, ”Quack! Auntie, we should go get a VIP ward for Uncle first. There are too many people here and the environment isn’t that convenient for me to treat him.”

“Little fellow, who are you calling a quack? So young and yet so rude. Besides, is the VIP ward a ward that you can afford? That ward is meant for those who are in the upper echelon of society. You should already feel content when you get this ordinary ward. You were given this ward because the hospital felt that the patient’s condition was at a critical stage. You guys should already be thanking the hospital for that,” The doctor said with arrogance.

“Look at you! Calling you a quack should already be praise. Call your dean over. I want to take a look, is Li Wenbo’s hospital meant to save people or to earn money?” Cheng Yu glared at the quack and said.

“You! You are very courageous huh. You actually dare to be so rampant in the City Hospital. The amount of time I have been working for this hospital is longer than what your age is. You dare to call me a quack?! Furthermore, the Dean’s name isn’t something that can be called by you!” When he heard Cheng Yu’s words, the doctor was furious. He stomped his leg and shouted at Cheng Yu.

Everyone inside the ward looked at them. Those inside the ward knew the doctor’s temper very well. Usually, he would be very arrogant and the way he treated the patient was as if he was their previous life’s parents.[1] Every one of the staff who saw him must lick his boot to ensure that he was doing a “proper checkup” on them.

When they saw someone had actually contradicted him, they all felt very satisfied in their heart. They had always hated such doctors, always thinking that the poor shouldn’t visit the doctors and have their illness cured.

“Even if you were to work in the hospital for life, you will never be able to save someone. Talking about your abilities, is this the way you save people? Can’t you see that the patient is still bleeding? Do you know the way you handled it is very dangerous?” Cheng Yu pointed at the man on the bed.

“This is my patient. I know what I am doing, I don’t need your opinions on how I handle it. Go back to where you came from. No money and you still wish to treat your illness. You think the hospital is a welfare home is it? Every day, there are so many patients who are in a critical stage. If we were to save them without asking them to pay, the hospital would had long fallen into bankruptcy. Since you are so great, you can bring the patient back with you, I will no longer bother myself with him anymore.”

He had been working in the hospital for more than 30 years. Today, he had actually been looked down upon by a kid who was only 18 years old. Furthermore, this was actually witnessed by so many people, so this was like giving a tight slap to his face. Since you acted like you are so good, bring the patient back! I want to see how are you will save him!
