After that, the director personally gave some instructions to the doctors and nurses, and they all agreed to cooperate.
Soon, Li Jin’s men rushed over to Xia Hai’s room.
The nurse quickly blocked the door and didn’t let Li Jin and the others in. At this time, the nurse’s face was serious as she scolded Li Jin, “What are you doing? The patient inside is resting. This is not a place where you can cause trouble! ”
Li Jin snorted coldly. “My son is inside. Why can’t I visit him?”
The nurse continued to stop her and told her, “Your son is no longer in our hospital. He couldn’t pay for his medical expenses. We don’t have that many beds to support him. It’s good that you’re here now. If you pay for his medical expenses, your son can continue his hospitalization.
“He hasn’t fully recovered. He shouldn’t have been discharged, but our hospital is very busy, and we only have so many wards. He didn’t pay for the medical expenses, so he has no right to occupy our s.p.a.ce.”
Li Jin panicked when she heard the nurse’s words. She had almost forgotten that Xia Hai had not paid for his medical expenses.
Li Jin did not continue to argue with the nurse. Instead, she turned to look at Song Yan. “What should we do now? We haven’t paid Xia Hail s medical fees. If we continue arguing, will we have to pay for it?”
“They asked us to pay… does it mean we’ll have to take out our money?” Song Yan rolled her eyes and said. “If we don’t take out the money, will they ransack our house? Besides, Xia Hai is no longer admitted here. Why should we pay?”
Song Yan looked at the nurse and said, “You’re so cruel. You drove a patient away just because he couldn’t afford to pay for his treatment. Is this how your hospital deals with things? I’m going to show everyone how cold-blooded your hospital is!”
Soon, Doctor Chen rushed over and heard Song Yan’s threats.
Fortunately, Xia Wan had warned him before that these people might act shamelessly on the spot, so Doctor Chen was mentally prepared in advance. He would’ve been really shocked when he saw how shameless Song Yan and the others were.
Doctor Chen warned Song Yan, “I hope you know that this is a hospital, not a charity. Patients who want to see a doctor have to pay for their treatment. If everyone can just see a doctor without paying, how can our hospital continue to operate?”
“Besides, if it were anyone else, they might have the right to question our decision. But as Xia Hails mother and sister-in-law, you clearly have money on you, but you’re unwilling to pay for his medical expenses.
“Xia Hai doesn’t need to undergo any more surgeries, and he doesn’t have the money to pay for his hospitalization. It’s normal that he must leave the hospital. What right do you have to accuse us of this?”
“Before you criticize others, you should first look at yourself. What right do you have to criticize our hospital?”
Li Jin and the others had been very confident, but after hearing what Doctor Chen said, they felt like they were in the wrong.
Song Yan was still unconvinced. She could not help but look towards the ward and ask, “I don’t believe you. Let us go and take a look. If Xia Hai is really not here, we won’t disturb you.”
Doctor Chen’s face was cold. “Fine, you said it. If you see that Xia Hai is not here and still refuses to leave, I’ll have to ask the security guards to escort you out.”
After he finished speaking, he stepped aside, and the nurses opened the door.
Li Jin and the others entered the ward and found a new patient lying on the bed. There was no sign of Xia Hai, and everything in there belonged to a stranger.
Li Jin and the others believed Doctor Chen. Xia Hai was indeed no longer in the hospital. However, they were still worried. Where could he go if not the hospital?
Li Jin couldn’t help but ask Doctor Chen, “Then where is my son now? You must know where he is. Tell me his location.”
“You said that he’s your son,” Doctor Chen replied coldly.. “Yet you don’t even know where your son lives, and you’re asking me, some doctor? How would I know about these things?”
