《Physician’s Odyssey》Chapter 913 - Hope
Advertisement
Under Ma Xiangming’s urging, Lei Zheng headed over to the front desk and asked about He Duo’s situation. The nurse didn’t hide anything from him and replied, “He Duo had just been reprimanded by the head nurse earlier. She’s thinking of resigning.”
“Isn’t it just a small misunderstanding? Why is she resigning?” Lei Zheng frowned.
“Aren’t you guys forcing her to leave by harassing her?” The nurse smiled.
“We’re not harassing her. That’s because Ma Xiangming took a liking on her.” Lei Zheng shook his finger.
“You don’t like her?” The nurse smiled.
“I don’t. Everyone’s aesthetics is different. Compared to her, I prefer someone like you.” Lei Zheng wrote down his social media account on a paper and smiled, “Add me. I’ll send you a red packet.”
The nurse was slightly startled. Her heart was throbbing watching Lei Zheng returning to the ward. Although she knew that Lei Zheng and Ma xiangming were scumbags, she still couldn’t resist the temptation of being married into a rich family.
The nurse immediately took out her phone and added Lei Zheng. Not long later, Lei Zheng sent a red packet over with a message, “A small token from me.”
The nurse smiled, covering her mouth and replied, “I’m not adding you for the red packet.”
“Red packets are just worldly objects. How can it represent my feelings for you?” Lei Zheng replied.
He sent four more red packets that worthed ¥1,000. Lei Zheng did not continue to harass the nurse anymore. If he wanted to woo a woman, it was impossible relying on money alone. He had to nurture feelings with her. He planned to ask her out a few days from now and get her a branded bag would do the trick.
When Lei Zheng returned, Ma Xiangming immediately asked, “What’s the situation?”
Lei Zheng felt a lot better now that he found a new target. He smiled, “He Duo is a thorn. You’ve frightened her with your actions earlier.”
Ma Xiangming shrugged, “Don’t people say nowadays that girls are into domineering men? I scared her away so easily?”
“Yeah.” Lei Zheng shrugged. “She’s planning on resigning.”
“No way! She must be kept around. How will I be able to woo her if she leaves the hospital?” Ma Xiangming frowned. “Get it done for me.”
Lei Zheng smiled bitterly. Wasn’t Ma Xiangming making things difficult for him? He scared her off a while ago and wanted him to clean up the mess?
After a brief pondering, Lei Zheng replied, “That won’t be difficult. I’ll give a call to the head nurse later and give her a promotion.”

“I’m afraid that she won’t accept it with her temper.” Ma Xiangming had studied women psychology. He knew that someone like He Duo couldn’t be treated with normal standards.
Lei Zheng smiled, “It’s fine. Her personal file is with us. Unless she no longer wants to be a nurse anymore. Otherwise, she won’t be able to leave.”
Ma Xiangming laughed and pointed at Lei Zheng, “I never expected that you would go this far.”
Lei Zheng sighed in relief upon hearing that. Wasn’t that because he was forced to do it?
Ma Xiangming held onto his chin and pondered, “Now that she reminded me. We still have to clean up the mess we made. Talk to Wu Jun’s parents about the compensation.”
“Got it. It won’t take more than ¥200,000.” Lei Zheng smiled.
“Would that brat really die?” Ma Xiangming frowned.
“That’s unsure. The doctor who’s performing the surgery doesn’t have much experience.” Lei Zheng sighed.
“Add another ¥100,000 if he dies.” Ma Xiangming added.
“Young Master Ma, don’t worry about it. I know how to deal with this matter.” Lei Zheng smiled.
From Ma Xiangming’s point of view, it was enough to give them ¥200,000. After all, Wu Jun had beaten them up. So Ma Xiangming felt that he was a generous person to give compensation to the other party.
Going from the high-end ward to the emergency room, Lei Zheng saw He Duo chatting with the elderly couple. He guessed that the couple must be the patient’s next of kin and snorted, “Are you Wu Jun’s parents?”
“Yeah.” The couple came from the countryside. So they were afraid to look at Lei Zheng.
Lei Zheng pointed at his head and replied, “This is your son’s masterpiece!”
The couple immediately realized that Lei Zheng was the one who fought with his son. The elderly woman suddenly became agitated, “You’re the one who landed my son in this state? I’ll fight with you to the end!”
Lei Zheng was startled by her reaction and immediately took a step back. He raged, “Behave yourself. I’m here to resolve the problem. Your son got into a fight with us and he was the one who started the fight. Because his condition is more serious, we decided to give him some compensation.”
“You’re clearly trying to bully us!” The elderly woman wanted to rush forth, only to be stopped by her husband.
“Calm down and listen to him first.” The elderly man was more composed.
“You guys are truly one family with your temper. Forget it. I’ll give you guys ¥200,000 and we’ll resolve this matter. What do you think?” Lei Zheng shook his head.

“My son is still in the emergency room! Are you trying to buy us off with money?!” The elderly woman sobbed.
With a disdainful smile, Lei Zheng replied, “Do know what’s the best for you. I know you guys have no money and even the medical expenses are paid by something. You’ll need money to save your son. And the compensation is a significant sum.”
With ¥200,000, their urgent need for medical expenses would be resolved. In the end, the elderly man whispered, “Let’s just promise him. Our son’s medical treatment is more important.”
Seeing that they finally agreed to his terms, Lei Zheng smiled, “But you guys will have to sign an agreement with us. After taking the money, the life and death of your son will have nothing to do with us.”
“Are you still a human?!” He Duo, who was standing beside him, roared. “Do you think that everything can be resolved with money?!”
Raising his brow, Lei Zheng reminded her, “You’re not in the position to make any decision. It’s best if you keep your mouth shut.”
He Duo immediately held onto the elderly woman’s hand and said earnestly, “You have to listen to me. Transfer to another hospital immediately for your son’s treatment. As for the treatment fees, I’ll think of something. You can even try to get social assistance. There are so many caring people in the world. They will definitely help you. As for the one who put Wu Jun in this state, you can’t let them go so easily!”
Although He Duo had helped them, the old couple still hesitated. After all, ¥200,000 was an astronomical figure to them.
Seeing that He Duo was trying to spoil his plans, Lei Zheng pointed at He Duo and yelled, “Shut up! This has nothing to do with you! Do you believe that I’ll slap you?”
“I’m not afraid of you.” He Duo sneered.
Just when Lei Zheng was about to slap her, he suddenly felt someone grabbing on her hand. Turning to look, He Duo exclaimed out, “Boss?”
It was the restaurant’s owner who grabbed onto Lei Zheng’s hand. Aside from him, there was also Su Tao. He Duo immediately felt her heart throbbing. She initially thought that she wouldn’t be able to see Su Tao ever again, but she never expected that she would run into him here.
“What’s the matter? Why are you laying hands on a woman?” The boss questioned. He found Lei Zheng a little familiar.
Lei Zheng had eaten in his restaurant several times, so he naturally recognized the boss. He snapped, “Don’t be nosy or I’ll get someone to tear down your restaurant.”
The boss also had a fiery temper. When he listened to Lei Zheng’s words, he rebuked, “Oh? It looks like you know me. But do you think that I’ll be afraid of you?”
As Lei Zheng still had injuries on his body, he sneered seeing that the boss wasn’t someone to be messed with, “Then let’s see how I’ll deal with you.”
Lei Zheng immediately left and began calling his friends.
Meanwhile, Su Tao and the boss began to ask about the situation here.
Su Tao initially wanted to do some investigation in the hospital today. When he ate in the restaurant, he talked to the boss briefly and found out about the old couple’s situation. They didn’t even go to eat in the restaurant today. So the boss and Su Tao decided to come and take a look. But they never expected that when they came to the emergency room, they saw Lei Zheng wanting to slap He Duo.
When He Duo revealed how Wu Jun was injured, the boss immediately became furious, “That’s too much! How can there be so many scumbags in the world!”
Su Tao wasn’t too surprised. Xia Yu already had conducted a comprehensive investigation into the Nonferrous Metals Group. He knew that not only hospital, but the entire corporation was rotten down to the bones. But even so, there were still people who didn’t want to give up on their power and interest.
While they were furious about it, the emergency room suddenly opened. The attending doctor came out and smiled bitterly, “We’ve already tried out best.”
“Doctor, please! You must save my son!” The elderly woman dropped on her knees and started begging.
“We’ve already done a few surgeries to save your son. But the risk is too high and there’s no longer a need. Even if we managed to save your son, he will be a vegetable.” The attending doctor persuaded.
“Does that mean that he still has a possibility of waking up even if he’s in a vegetable state?” The elderly woman burst into tears. “So be it then. There’s hope as long as he’s still alive.”
Su Tao’s expression became solemn. He never expected that the situation in the hospital would be so serious. He spoke out, “Can I take a look at the patient?”

He murmured, his lips only inches from my own.I blinked, my lips parting, as his heady scent encircled me. He licked his lower lip, running his teeth over it as his electric blue eyes burned into mine. The heat of his bare chest seeped through my thin cotton shirt, thawing my icy irritation."Even when you're being cross." He added in a low voice. He leaned closer, before I could respond, and ran his teeth along my jaw.I suppressed a moan. "I wouldn't be cross if you weren't so keen on irritating me." I said, unable to hide the smile in my voice.I felt his answering smile against my neck. "How can I make it up to you?" He whispered, planting gentle kisses up and down the column of my throat. He moved to the other side of my neck, flicking his tongue once against the mating mark near my shoulder.My hands slid up his abdomen, exploring the dips and hard lines of his muscles. Heat uncurled deep in my belly, spreading lower, and lower, until I felt my panties dampen. He growled into my ear, sending shivers down my entire body.*~*~*~*~*~*~#1 in ROMANCE 9/13/18~~#1 in ACTION-ADVENTURE 12/05/18 and 4/25/19~~#1 in ACTION-ROMANCE 1/16/19~~#1 in DRAGONS 6/9/19~~#1 in FAIRIES 7/20/19~*~*~*~*~*~*⚠️!!
