Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 996: Chapter 995: Go Stay Where It’s Cool! (1st Update)

The Huaxia First People’s Hospital is one of the top-tier large-scale hospitals in the country, not only employing countless experienced medical doctoral and postdoctoral practitioners but also equipped with the most advanced medical instruments in the nation.

If a heart transplant surgery were to be conducted in this hospital, the success rate would undoubtedly be twice as high as that of other hospitals.

Of course, the cutting-edge treatment conditions also come with the highest fees. The saying ”you get what you pay for” undoubtedly applies here.

Ye Haochuan never thought that Zhang Chong, despite being so impoverished he had to beg for food, would still arrange such a high-end hospital for his father. Clearly, this guy truly is a dutiful son!

Ye Haochuan and Su Yingxue followed Zhang Chong into the hospital.

”No wonder it’s a big hospital! Just from the cleanliness alone, it’s miles ahead of other hospitals!” exclaimed Su Yingxue as soon as she entered the Huaxia First People’s Hospital.

Ye Haochuan nodded his head as well. Whether it was the corridors or the wards, the floors were spotless with no speck of dust. The bedsheets and blankets looked like they’d just been bought. Even the air was extraordinarily clean and fresh, with no trace of pollution.

As they entered the ward where Father Zhang was staying, Zhang Chong noticed his father talking to a doctor.

The doctor was Father Zhang’s attending physician, named Cao Nimei, who was somewhat well-known in the Huaxia First People’s Hospital. Currently, he was in a solemn tone, persistently trying to convince Father Zhang.

”Dad, how are you feeling now?” Zhang Chong greeted the doctor and then anxiously asked his father about his condition.

”Zhang, you’re here just in time. Please persuade your father; he insists on being discharged!” Seeing Zhang Chong arrive, Cao Nimei breathed a sigh of relief and said.

”Chong, I’ve had this condition for years—there’s no cure, so why waste time here?” Before Zhang Chong could respond, Father Zhang interjected. ”Besides, hospitals like this aren’t for people of our means to afford to stay in.”

Thinking of the over one million yuan needed for treatment made Father Zhang feel utterly bitter. Even if he sold their old house in their hometown, he still wouldn’t have enough to cover the surgery cost.

He had struggled to raise Zhang Chong, and he didn’t want Zhang Chong to shoulder a mountain of debt for his treatment. That kind of burden would crush Zhang Chong for his entire life!

Zhang Chong obviously understood his father’s intentions, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions of gratitude and sorrow. He quickly said, ”Dad, don’t worry. I’ve invited a Divine Doctor this time—there’s no need to spend a million on a heart transplant to cure you!”

Upon hearing this, Father Zhang gave a bitter smile. ”Chong, I know you mean well, but this is heart disease—how could it possibly be cured?”

”Dad, I know, so just trust me. The doctor I found will definitely cure you!”

”Doctor? Are you questioning my medical skills now?” interjected Cao Nimei angrily, his face darkening.

Seeing Zhang Chong mention inviting another doctor in front of him was akin to insulting him directly.

”Well...” Zhang Chong suddenly felt a little awkward. In his eagerness to heal his father, he hadn’t considered how this might offend the attending physician.

”Question your skills? If you truly had the ability, why haven’t you cured Uncle’s illness yet?” Su Yingxue scoffed.

”Hah, little girl, what do you know? This is an extremely rare hereditary heart disease—it’s completely untreatable without a heart transplant!”

”Who are you calling a little girl? Clearly, it’s your lackluster medical skills causing the issue. If Brother Ye was in charge, Uncle’s illness would’ve been treated ages ago!”

”Nonsense! You think heart disease is a minor headache or cold? Let me tell you, if you keep stirring up trouble here, I’ll call security!”

”You...”

”Enough! Whether he can be cured or not, you’ll soon find out. Right now, I need to focus on treating him, so kindly... go cool off somewhere else!” Ye Haochuan finally couldn’t resist interjecting.

”You? Are you the so-called Divine Doctor Zhang Chong has been talking about?” Cao Nimei suddenly burst into a mocking laugh. ”Scammers these days are growing bolder and bolder! A wet-behind-the-ears punk claiming to be a Divine Doctor? Such a lousy con, and yet there are fools who believe it—utterly hilarious!”

”Well...” Zhang Chong, already filled with some doubt, found himself even more shaken by Cao Nimei’s words. Hesitantly, he asked Ye Haochuan, ”Brother, are you... really certain about this?”

”What’s this? You don’t believe in me?”

”No... no, it’s not that!” Zhang Chong’s mind flashed back to moments of hesitation when Ye Haochuan had walked away earlier. Turning to Cao Nimei, he said, ”How about giving him a chance to try?”

”Try what? Do you think treating patients is something that can be experimented with? If something goes wrong, will you take responsibility?”

”I...”

”You, what? You’re just a naïve student who has no clue how treacherous the society is!” snapped Cao Nimei. ”They said a few things, and you believed them? With intelligence like yours, I’m amazed you even made it into college!”

Su Yingxue immediately responded angrily, ”You keep calling Brother Ye a fraud! If you’re so skilled, then why don’t you cure Uncle’s heart disease already? Dragging it on for over a month—what are you trying to do, exhaust Uncle completely?”

”Hah! Isn’t it because he hasn’t raised enough money for his operation? If he had, the heart would’ve been replaced a long time ago.”

”So, this so-called ’Medical Practitioner’s Benevolence’ and ’saving lives being a doctor’s duty’ is all fake? In your eyes, it’s nothing but money? You’re a sanctimonious hypocrite!”

Disdain filled Su Yingxue’s tone, making Cao Nimei’s expression incredibly sour. He snapped, ”Stop spouting nonsense here. You think you can cure a disease without paying? You’re clearly dreaming!”

”Dreaming? What a joke! Calling yourself a doctor is laughable. You’re nothing more than a mercenary and lack even the most basic qualities a doctor should possess. Your medical skills probably match your character—both rotten to the core!”

”You...”

”What? Feeling humiliated because I hit the nail on the head?” Su Yingxue glanced at him dismissively, showing no interest in continuing the exchange. She immediately turned to Ye Haochuan and said, ”Brother Ye, hurry up and treat Uncle! The longer heart disease drags on, the more dangerous it becomes. He’s already been delayed by this useless doctor for over a month; it can’t wait any longer!”

Ye Haochuan nodded and said to Zhang Chong, ”Zhang Chong, do you remember what you promised me before coming here?”

”Brother, I...” Zhang Chong looked conflicted. But when he saw the confidence in Ye Haochuan’s gaze, he finally gritted his teeth and said to Cao Nimei, ”Doctor Cao, I trust them to cure my father. Please leave the room for now.”

While speaking, Zhang Chong did not forget to gesture with his hand to show Cao Nimei the door.

This scene made Cao Nimei’s face darken like a liver. Damn it, they’re clearly telling him to leave!

”Zhang Chong, don’t you understand the consequences of treatment failure?” Cao Nimei shouted strongly.

”I’ll take the consequences. Right now, I want you out of here!” Zhang Chong, already determined to let Ye Haochuan treat his father, bit his teeth and said.

”Good, fine—really great! Since you’d rather believe a fraud than me, your attending physician, I won’t waste my breath. But let me warn you, if your father dies because of this guy, don’t blame me for not cautioning you beforehand!”

With a cold snort, Cao Nimei stormed out in rage.

Hmph, let them mess around all they want. When something goes wrong, I’ll see how they handle it!

As Cao Nimei exited, Zhang Chong breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Ye Haochuan. ”Brother, you can start now.”

”Mm.”

Ye Haochuan nodded. Just as he was about to act, Father Zhang’s condition suddenly worsened—he began coughing uncontrollably, accompanied by heavy bleeding.

Seeing his father’s condition, Zhang Chong turned pale and immediately dropped to his knees. ”Brother, please save my father!”

”Don’t worry. With me here, nothing will go wrong!” Ye Haochuan said with a calm smile, clearly unfazed by the sudden emergency.

”Get up quickly. Don’t disturb Brother Ye. With Brother Ye here, Uncle will be fine,” Su Yingxue said as she hurriedly pulled Zhang Chong to the side to prevent him from distracting Ye Haochuan.
