Chapter 154

Chapter 154: Chapter 153 Scum, for this kind of reality where they only know how to suck the blood of others, Ye Tianchen absolutely won’t say much, nor will he compromise. Actually joking with people’s lives, not getting on the ambulance until the money is paid, even though Ye Tianchen knows this is an unwritten rule for many hospitals’ ambulances. However, if he encounters it, he won’t be polite. This society has too many unwritten rules, and it’s precisely these rules that have made many people inhuman, cold-blooded, and heartless.

"You, you, what are you trying to do? You don’t want us to save her, do you?" Another male doctor, seeing Ye Tianchen daring to take action, couldn’t help but point his right index finger at Tianchen and yelled angrily.

The heart of a doctor is like that of a parent, but that was only said in ancient times. In this modern, money-driven society, where is the heart of a doctor like that of a parent? Among numerous professions, especially doctors, which patient dares to offend a doctor? Which patient’s family dares to offend a doctor? Looking at doctors as if they were one’s own parents because they can save your life has led many people to revere doctors to the extent of offering gifts and bribes, which causes some doctors not only to accept bribes, messing up the fundamentals of being a doctor, losing their medical ethics but also becoming ever more arrogant. If the patient or their family don’t offer gifts, then the patient won’t be properly cared for. A lot of the time, what’s happening isn’t treatment, but an evaluation of the patient’s family background and wealth. And if there’s no money, well, you can imagine.

"Getting saved by doctors like you, a rescue would be in vain. Better I teach you a lesson!"

Thump!

Another kick, and Ye Tianchen sent the second male doctor flying, who crashed heavily onto the ground, and wailed in pain like a slaughtered pig. He really didn’t want to waste words on this kind of scum. Expecting them to save lives was no better than expecting them to take lives.

No one expected Ye Tianchen to not only refrain from pleading with these few doctors but also to strike decisively, beating both male doctors to the ground, leaving them wailing in pain. Perhaps in present society, there aren’t many people who would dare to do this. Ling Yuxun and Xiao Ya were clueless about what Ye Tianchen was doing. Normally, people would beg these doctors to be merciful or offer them money to take Xiao Ya’s mother to the hospital. However, Ye Tianchen chose to do the opposite.

"You actually dared to hit someone, huh, it seems you don’t want us to save her. Let’s go!" The remaining middle-aged female nurse said arrogantly.

Up until now, the three of them hadn’t come to their senses, still steeped in the old mindset that no patient or family member would dare to be disrespectful to them. Indeed, some of them had been doctors for over twenty years. For more than two decades, they’d seen patients and their families who were all smiles and gifted red envelopes. Who would dare to hit a doctor like Ye Tianchen?

Unfortunately, they were wrong. Ye Tianchen only recognizes reason and not the person. He despises nothing more than those of depraved character who tread on life as if it’s nothing. It goes without saying, if all those who are doctors don’t have a heart of compassion, when everyone eventually falls ill, who will come to the rescue?

"Human nature. Women are supposed to be kinder than men, but you’ve turned out to be such a vile woman, I have nothing more to say!"

Slap!

The middle-aged female nurse was also knocked down by a slap from Ye Tianchen, who, terrified, covered her face with her hands and looked at Ye Tianchen, trembling all over.

"Tianchen..." Ling Yuxun tugged at Ye Tianchen’s sleeve and said.

"I know, we’ll take Yaer’s mother to the best hospital in Capital City now, using your car!" Ye Tianchen said seriously.

"Okay!" Ling Yuxun nodded without hesitation.

At that moment, Ling Yuxun suddenly realized when Ye Tianchen isn’t being frivolous, he exudes a manly allure, feeling very charming—of course, this is only when he’s engaged in serious matters. Once there’s nothing serious, Ye Tianchen immediately reverts to a ruffian-like demeanor, which is extremely frustrating.

"Yaer, Uncle, let’s hurry and take Auntie to the hospital, we can’t delay any further!" Ye Tianchen said to Xiao Ya and her father.

"Yes, sure, sure!" Xiao Ya’s father quickly went to support Xiao Ya’s mother.

"Thank, thank you!" Xiao Ya, biting her lower lip, her eyes still wet with tears, looked at Ye Tianchen and said.

Ye Tianchen felt a twinge of heartache. Xiao Ya was a very kind and pure girl, with a well-cultivated heart. Such a girl shouldn’t have to suffer like this, especially when seeing Xiao Ya cry. Ye Tianchen felt a strong urge to hold her and protect her, not wanting her to be hurt in the slightest. This also reminded Ye Tianchen of the woman he loved most in the apocalypse, feeling a deep emotion.

"No, no problem, let’s go!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

Xiao Ya and her father, supporting Xiao Ya’s mother, walked outside and got into Ling Yuxun’s sports car. As for Ye Tianchen, he directly threw out the two doctors and the nurse. Relying on doctors like them to save lives was pure fantasy.

Ling Yuxun drove the car, with Ye Tianchen in the passenger seat and Xiao Ya with her parents in the back. Xiao Ya’s mother, with her hands on her abdomen, had a pain-stricken, pale face and couldn’t even sit up straight. Xiao Ya, holding her mother anxiously, was full of distress.

"Yuxun, drive slower!" Ye Tianchen spoke up.

"Okay!" Ling Yuxun nodded and started the car.

By the time Ye Tianchen and the others arrived at Kyoto Hospital, it was already past six in the evening, and it was almost dark. When they reached the nurse’s desk, although there was an emergency room, most of the doctors on duty were not very skilled and had no way to accurately diagnose the condition of Xiao Ya’s mother. Moreover, by this time, Xiao Ya’s mother was already somewhat delirious, and her condition had become very serious.

"Nurse sister, please, please find a doctor to diagnose my mother, I’m begging you!" Xiao Ya ran to the nurse station, pleading with the nurse on duty.

"No can do, it’s already past six, and all the good doctors have gone off to rest early. Plus, if you want to see a specialist, you need to make an appointment and wait. Your mother’s condition is very serious, but it should alleviate some after an IV. You should admit her to the hospital first, the fee is three thousand five hundred!" The nurse at the desk shook her head as she spoke.

"But, but my mother is in so much pain, will an IV really be enough? And, and, we don’t have that much money..." Xiao Ya looked at the female nurse with an awkward expression.

Although the female nurse at the service desk wasn’t outright mean, she was still rather mercenary, she glanced at Xiao Ya and said, "Little sister, I’m telling you the truth, to stay here for one night is three thousand five hundred. With your mother’s condition, this isn’t a minor illness, and with various tests tomorrow, she might even need surgery. Can your family come up with that kind of money?"

"This..."

Hearing the nurse’s words, Xiao Ya’s eyes reddened instantly as tears began to fall. Over the years, her mother had been tormented by illness, and the family had long since spent all their savings. They couldn’t even afford two hundred yuan for the ambulance. She had been able to attend Longteng University entirely on scholarships. Xiao Ya actually hadn’t planned on attending university, she wanted to use the scholarship money for her mother’s treatment and then go out to work. However, her mother had firmly disagreed, saying that she would rather die than let Xiao Ya give up university, showing the greatness of a mother’s love, who always puts her child first.

Unable to come up with even two hundred yuan, how could she then afford three thousand five hundred? Thinking of this astronomical sum, Xiao Ya could only weep silently. Was she really to just watch her mother suffer from the illness until death?

Slap! A bank’s Gold Card was slapped onto the counter. Ye Tianchen looked at the nurse and said, "There’s enough money here to spend freely, use the best medicine, and book the top specialist!"

"Ye Tianchen, you..." Xiao Ya didn’t expect Ye Tianchen to have followed her here. She spoke with surprise.

"Don’t worry, your mother will be all right!" Ye Tianchen said to Xiao Ya with a smile.

"But, your money, I..."

"Think of it as a loan from me. You can pay me back when you can!"

Ye Tianchen knew Xiao Ya was a person with a strong sense of pride, especially since they had only just met; helping her in such a way could leave her feeling indebted. To avoid any concerns on Xiao Ya’s part, Ye Tianchen had thought of this solution.

"Thank, thank you!" Xiao Ya looked at Ye Tianchen, very touched.

"It’s nothing, your mother will get better. Don’t cry anymore, seeing you cry must be hard on your mother’s heart, too," Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

"Okay!" Xiao Ya nodded and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.

"Sir, are you sure you want the patient to be admitted?" The nurse, now smiling and with a much kinder tone, spoke to Ye Tianchen, because just a moment earlier, when she had processed the card, she had seen the balance in Ye Tianchen’s Gold Card and was so shocked it took her a while to recover. She couldn’t fathom that such a plainly dressed young man could be a multimillionaire.

"Of course she needs to be admitted. I said use the best medicine, book the top specialist. We want a consultation for the patient first thing tomorrow!" Ye Tianchen said.

"Alright, alright, but, but we’re out of beds now; the patient will have to put up with spending the night in the corridor. We’ll see if a bed becomes available and move her then!" The female nurse said.

At Kyoto Hospital, one of the top hospitals in the country, it was normal for there to be more patients than beds available. But Ye Tianchen saw something in the nurse’s eyes that suggested there was more to the story. Since he intended to help Xiao Ya, he wanted to do it thoroughly and properly!

"Could you please check again if there is any free room available? No matter the cost, you know what I mean," Ye Tianchen said with a smile. (To be continued.
