853 Room-sharing (1/2)

Dou Shuang opened her eyes and saw her father's bed being pushed out.

Before her drowsy mind could register what was going on, she immediately wailed. \”Daddy...\”

\”Oh, my goodness.\” Her mother, sitting next to the bed, was startled, and she quickly covered her mouth before she said, \”Your dad's fine, the doctor pushed him out for an examination.\”

Dou Shuang crawled up and looked at the people in the room looking at her while smiling. Then, she foolishly fell back to bed.

The father, who was being pushed outside, also heard her cry. He struggled to look up, waved at her, and said, \”I'm fine.\”

Then, he lay back on the bed weakly.

Dou Shuang looked worriedly at the corridor where her father was pushed into. At the age of seven or eight, she did not quite understand what it meant by examination, but since she could not see her dad anymore, she pursed her lips, and she still wanted to cry.

\”It's okay, it's okay, your dad is just going for an examination.\” The mother hugged her and rocked her. \”He'll be back in a while.\”

Dou Shuang shook her head in disbelief. \”Yesterday, you said that Uncle Lu was going for an examination, then, he was washed away by the flood.\”

\”Look at you, blabbering away...\” The mother was instantly worked up, and she raised her hands as if she was about to hit her.

\”Big sister, don't take a child's word seriously.\”

\”It's no big deal.\”

\”What do children know anyway?\”

The other people in the room took turns to convince otherwise.

The mother was actually just putting up a show. The people in the hospital were all affected by the disaster. Someone may have been washed away by the mudslide, but her family came out completely fine. If her child continued to talk nonsense, she would easily get hated.

Dou Shuang managed to escape from the disaster. She craned her head outward and asked, \”How long will it take before daddy is back?\”

\”He'll be right back,\” the mother answered.

Dou Shuang asked with her youthful voice, \”How soon would it be?\”

\”About an hour and a half.\” The answer this time came from the door.

Dou Shuang followed her voice and called out, \”Mommy, mommy, there's a good-looking lady over there.\”

\”Yeah.\” Her mother also sat up straight and stroked her hair subconsciously.

In front of her eyes was Tian Qi, who was dressed in professional attire.

\”Little girl, your dad is going for an examination to ensure that he remains in good health. Once the examination is done, he will come back. Don't worry, we can wait outside.\” As Tian Qi spoke, she nodded to the others with a smile and continued, \”Everyone, I'm the person in charge of Yunli Medical Company. Our company rented some rooms outside the hospital and would be providing them to everyone free-of-charge. The patients in the hospital can apply on a first-come, first-served basis. \”

\”The rooms are free? Are there any garbage collection fees, management fees, or some kind of fees?\”

\”Can't we just live in the room in the hospital?\”

\”How long can we stay there? My house has collapsed ...\”

Bazhaixiang's room was originally a large six-person room. As of now, more than twelve patients were staying in the room. When the patient's family members were added to the mix, there were now thirty people in the room. It was stuffy and smelly. In such an environment, they were already lucky that they were not infected, which meant that they could forget completely about taking care of their injuries.

It was impossible to add extra beds for the patients, but with so many family members in the hospital, the danger of nosocomial infection would be too high.

Tian Qi came with the second helicopter and saw that Yu Yuan was incredibly busy. So, she took the initiative to take over the responsibility of evacuating the family members of the patients.

Right then, the patients' family members in the Bazhaixiang hospital branch were not quite the same as the usual patients. At the same time, they may also be people who were affected by the disaster. Therefore, regardless of whether they chased them out in a rude or courteous manner, the end result may not be satisfactory.

Many people were admitted to the hospital with minor injuries and minor illnesses. Some may not have anywhere to go back to. They might even be homeless, and they could only stay with patients who were seriously ill.

From Tian Qi's point of view, the best solution was to find a good accommodation for them and then move their families over.
