Chapter 528 - Who Gave You the Right? (1/2)
There was a picture of Su Qingsang on a wall in the office of the obstetrics department. Li Hong’s husband had already spoken to some other doctors from that department.
Sun Huiya spent a long time trying to comfort him, but he still insisted on making Su Qingsang pay. Sun Huiya told him that it was she who operated on his wife, but he refused to believe that.
He knew that Sun Huiya was the director of the department. She was a director, which means she had a background. Unlike her, Su Qingsang was a newly hired doctor.
He couldn’t do anything to a director, but he could surely do something to a young doctor.
“Yes, it was you! You!”
Li Hong’s husband put the lunch box down, stepped to the side, and blocked Su Qingsang’s way.
Startled, Su Qingsang looked at Li Hong’s husband. She slightly furrowed her brows and asked, “Can I help you?”
“Oh, can you help me? Yeah, of course, you can.”
Li Hong’s husband rolled up his sleeves while speaking, also clenching his fists.
Su Qingsang knitted her brows, staring at him silently. Behind her, Li Hong, who was lying on the bed, called her husband, “Lin Gang, what are you doing?”
“What am I doing?” Li Hong’s husband, whose name was Lin Gang, looked at Su Qingsang. He raised his hand and pointed his finger at her nose, saying, “Let me ask you something. Were you the one who cut out my wife’s uterus?”
“Yes.” Su Qingsang looked at him and nodded.
“Good, you admitted it, good.” Lin Gang bobbed his head. “Let me ask you another question. Who gave you the right to cut out my wife’s uterus?”
“Mr. Lin, I think I need to explain to you. Your wife was in a critical condition back then. If we didn’t remove her uterus, her life might be in danger. Do you understand?”
“You said ‘might’?”
“Yes.”
“So you weren’t a hundred percent sure!” Lin Gang pointed at her and said, “Since you weren’t a hundred percent sure, who gave you the right to do that? Tell me.”
Su Qingsang stepped backward as the man’s finger nearly touched her nose. “Mr. Lin,” she said, “Please calm down. I said ‘might’, because we doctors can never be a hundred percent sure about what may happen. However, your wife’s condition was…”
“Enough. I don’t want to hear it!” Lin Gang made another step forward and said, “I’m telling you, you cut out my wife’s uterus, so you’re gonna take the responsibility for that.”
“Take the responsibility?” Su Qingsang looked at him, dumbfounded. “What do you want me to do?”
“What do I want you to do? Simple. I want you to give me a son.”
Earlier, a so-called warlock had told him affirmatively that Li Hong would have a son. Lin Gang had already made that man pay for his erroneous claims.
And now, it was Su Qingsang’s turn.
Su Qingsang stared at the man’s finger which was almost poking into her face again. She took another step backward. “Mr. Lin, can you stop being unreasonable?”
“I’m being unreasonable? Let me show you what’s being unreasonable like!”
Upon saying that, Lin Gang raised a fist, about to punch Su Qingsang on the face.
Su Qingsang wasn’t expecting that. She surely wouldn’t stand there to let herself be punched. Quickly, she took a series of steps backward to dodge that punch.
The man didn’t think that Su Qingsang would dodge. Enraged, he bellowed, “You bloody quack! Because of you, my wife, my family will never have a son! I’m gonna kill you!”
While yelling, he rushed at Su Qingsang. Seeing that, Li Hong hurriedly shouted out loud, “Lin Gang! What are you doing?! Stop!”
“Shut up! b*tch! It has nothing to do with you!”
Su Qingsang moved to the other side of the bed as the man came at her.
That was a wrong move, however. In a panic, she glared at Lin Gang and said with a very cold voice, “Mr. Lin, if you keep acting like this I’ll call the police.”
“Do it. Just do it. Because of you, I’ll never have a son! I’m gonna kill you and then go to prison!”
Lin Gang once again swung a fist at Su Qingsang’s face. Su Qingsang automatically raised an arm to defend herself. However, the punch didn’t land on her as she expected.
Li Hong had sprung up from the bed and clenched onto Lin Gang’s waist tightly. Her feet were still bare.
“Lin Gang, stop it!”
“B*tch! Let go of me!” Lin Gang yanked Li Hong’s hands while speaking.
“Let go of you? Why? Huh?” Li Hong burst into screams.
She pushed Lin Gang with all her might, glaring at him fiercely. She screamed, “You want to punch her and then go to prison, that’s your business. But don’t drag me into trouble! I just had a baby! What the hell are you doing?!”
“B*tch! You…!”
“What? I what?” Li Hong had noticed her husband’s behavior these days. He hadn’t been nice to her recently. He refused to look after her, and he didn’t even bring her lunch in time.
Unlike her, the other new mothers had all been taken good care of by their families.
“Lin Gang, don’t be heartless. If you didn’t come up with that stupid idea and asked me to fake the accident, would I ever get hit by the car? Would I go into premature labor? Would I lose my uterus?”
“You agreed to do that, didn’t you?”
“I did, I did, but I regretted it.” Li Hong had been unhappy ever since she found out she would be having a daughter.
Lin Gang called her ‘useless’. Her parent-in-laws hadn’t even come to visit her in the hospital, because she was having a daughter.
Lin Gang had been complaining every day, saying that she had given birth to a useless one; that she was stupid. She had enough of that.
“I regretted it. I wanted to stop long ago. You said that it’s a way to make quick money and that we need to save up for our son. Didn’t you say that? I wanted to stop long ago! I…”
Li Hong suddenly burst in tears, collapsing onto the ground.
“I regretted it. I truly regretted it. I shouldn’t have listened to you. Why did I listen to you? I shouldn’t have listened to you!”
She could tolerate all the crude words her husband threw at her, but she couldn’t bear watching her daughter suffer. Her daughter was in the incubator, but her husband took her out because he thought that it was a waste of money.
“What the hell are you talking about? B*tch! Get out of my way! I’m gonna kill this quack today!”
Lin Gang didn’t sound as confident as before, but he still didn’t want to give up just like that either. He pointed at Li Hong and howled, “Move! Did you hear me?”
“Alright, do what you want, but kill me first!” Li Hong abruptly stood up and said, “Come on, do it! Kill me! Punch me to death! I don’t want to live anyway… I hate my life.”
“Why didn’t I die? Why?” Li Hong kicked him while speaking, “Tell me, would you be happier if our daughter and I both died? Tell me!”
Lin Gang dodged the kick and raised an arm, speaking menacingly, “B*tch, I’m warning you! Don’t think that I don’t want to hit you. I’m telling you, I…!”
Before he could finish, Li Hong fell to the ground, unconscious.
“B*tch, stop doing that! You think playing death can save you?”
Su Qingsang stepped forward, glanced at Li Hong, and then glared at Lin Gang. She said, “Enough! Didn’t you see that her suture has ruptured? Move, if you don’t want her to die.”
She was incandescent with fury, already having figured out everything.
“The b*tch is playing dead…” Lin Gang argued, but his voice grew low.
Su Qingsang spared no attention for him at the moment. She only peeked at the man who was now standing by the bedside stupefied, like a chunk of wood.
She called the nurses, and together with them, she sent Li Hong to the clinic for examination.
The stitches were ripped open as Su Qingsang thought. However, she wasn’t sure why the patient had passed out. She guessed it was because the patient was so angry that it led to the insufficient blood supply to the brain.
Su Qingsang restitched the wound as quickly as possible. After finishing the work, she found herself soaked in sweat.
She did what she had to do. She then asked the nurses to send Li Hong back to the ward. After that, she wiped the sweat off her forehead, heaving a sigh of exhaustion. She wasn’t expecting these things to happen so suddenly.
She recalled how Li Hong fiercely pulled Zhang Yichen’s clothes and threatened to make him pay. What happened earlier today changed Su Qingsang’s impression on that woman.
She returned to the office. Still concerned about Li Hong, she asked Li Meilin to keep an eye on her.
She thought it was over. After all, Li Hong was now lying there in a coma. Lin Gang wouldn’t make a scene again unless he was that heartless.
Su Qingsang underestimated how shameless people could be. She thought the problem was solved, but on that night, her name showed up in the local hot-search list on Weibo.
Two pictures of her were posted on Weibo. In one picture, she was helping the unconscious Li Hong up. However, because of the shooting angle, it didn’t look like that.
The people who didn’t know what exactly had happened might perceive the anxiety on her face as guilt.
The heading of that Weibo post was ‘The doctor insulted the patient and caused her condition to worsen.’
Not a word in that article was true. In the article, Su Qingsang allegedly went to the ward to insult the patient verbally, agitated the patient, and even caused her to rip her stitches open.
According to the article, the doctor insulted the patient because the patient was suspected of faking the accident.
The article raised rhetorical questions: ‘Can doctors treat patients with discrimination and insult the patients because of what they have done?’
There were no videos; only a few pictures that did not state the truth. Under that post, thousands of keyboard warriors were giving Su Qingsang waves of criticism.
The relationship between doctors and patients had been tense already, and now something like that was posted.
Next, another Weibo post gave more shocking information. According to that post, not only did Su Qingsang insult the patient, but she had also removed her uterus because of a personal issue.
According to that post, Su Qingsang knew that the patient tried to fake the accident, but she ended up being hit by the car for real. Because of that, she removed the patient’s uterus although she did not have to, taking away the patient’s right to have another child.
The two Weibo posts made breaking news.
While the keyboard warriors were attacking Su Qingsang online, Lin Gang found the hospital leaders and told them that Su Qingsang started a conflict with his wife in the ward, causing his wife’s stitches to rip.
