Chapter 481: Su Qingsang Is Quite Interesting
As the pregnant woman kept complaining about the pain, Su Qingsang had no other choice but to examine her before doing anything else.
She put her fingers on the woman’s abdomen, moving her hand slowly while asking the woman, “Does it hurt here?”
“Yes.”
“What about here?”
The pregnant woman screamed, “It aches there too. It aches everywhere. My entire belly is aching!”
“Can you describe the pain? Is it like a cramp? Is it intermittent?”
“How am I supposed to know how to describe the pain? All I know is that it hurts. Isn’t it the doctor’s job to find out why and how? Do you even know how to do your job?”
The woman’s voice didn’t hinder Su Qingsang from making the right judgment. She lowered her head and continued examining her.
Once she finished the examination, she stood up and looked at the woman who was still lying on the bed. She said, “Miss, both you and the baby are good. Nothing seems wrong.”
“I’m fine? How is that possible?” The pregnant woman quickly sat up. “I’m not good! I was. .h.i.t by a car. He hit me with the car.”
While speaking, the woman readjusted her clothes and prepared to get off the bed.
Su Qingsang watched the woman’s nimble movements as she did so, then a thought popped up in her mind.
Before she could do anything, the woman came up with an idea. She then decided not to get up and grabbed Su Qingsang’s hand instead.
“Are you a doctor or not? Do you know how to treat patients? I was. .h.i.t by a car. How can I be fine?”
Su Qingsang knitted her brows and looked at the woman’s hand holding hers.
The woman talked loudly and gripped her hand hard. There was no doubt that she was perfectly fine.
“Miss, can you please let me go?”
“I’m not letting go. What kind of doctor are you? My belly is aching now. I was. .h.i.t by a car. How could you say that I’m fine?”
While speaking, the woman held Su Qingsang with one hand and her belly with the other.
She did look to be in pain. Su Qingsang told herself to calm down. “Miss, I just gave you a checkup. According to the result, both you and your baby are healthy. However, if you are still feeling pain, you can choose to do some further exams. I’ll order you some tests, okay?”
“Okay. I want to do all the tests.”
The woman sounded full of strength, but she soon put both hands on her belly and started moaning in pain again.
Su Qingsang looked at her, wondering what she was planning to do. To verify her guess, she talked to the woman again.
“Miss, all of our colleagues who work in the B-type ultrasonic inspection room left. You may not be able to get a B-type ultrasonic inspection today. Maybe you should come back tomorrow.”
“How can I wait until tomorrow? The pain might kill me if I have to wait overnight.”
On hearing the woman yell, Su Qingsang was sure that her guess was correct. Even so, she added something.
“Of course, you can also stay here. You can go for the admission procedure now, then stay here for the night. The tests will be done tomorrow.”
“I’ll stay here then.”
The woman’s words further confirmed Su Qingsang’s guess. She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go and get you registered now. The nurse will take you to the ward, okay?”
The woman pointed at the tall man and said, “I want him to take me to the ward. He hit me with the car, so I want him to take me there.”
“He has to go and pay the hospital bills for you. To stay in the hospital, you need to pay in advance.”
“Fine, let him pay.” The woman nodded.
Su Qingsang asked Ke Lan to take the woman to the ward.
Before leaving, the pregnant woman warned the tall man not to leave and told him that he would pay for what he had done. After watching the woman leave, Su Qingsang turned to the man.
The man was looking at her too. He was standing by the door, so he must have heard what Su Qingsang said.
From a short distance, Su Qingsang found the man to look rather handsome because of his masculine features. His olive skin made him look very healthy.
Judging by his st.u.r.dy shape, he must have worked out a lot.
Ignoring Su Qingsang’s gaze, the man bluntly asked her, “Where should I go and pay?”
His voice sounded a little cold.
Su Qingsang waved a hand as she said, “You’re free to go.”
Zhang Yichen wasn’t expecting that. He paused for a second in surprise, then asked her, “What did you say?”
“I said you are free to go.”
Zhang Yichen didn’t move. Su Qingsang raised her eyebrows and blinked her eyes as she looked at the man.
“That woman’s trying to extort you, isn’t she? Am I wrong?”
Upon hearing that, Zhang Yichen finally looked at Su Qingsang seriously. “How did you figure that out?”
“Despite her loud screaming, her baby’s heartbeat is strong. She said she’s in pain, but she doesn’t appear nervous at all. If she was really worried about her baby, she wouldn’t even be thinking about making you pay. Instead, she would be begging for me to save her baby. Simply put, I think she’s trying to extort you. Even if what happened was an accident, I think she’s just trying to take this opportunity to get some money from you. Aren’t you gonna leave now? Would you like to deal with her family?”
With a surprised expression, Zhang Yiichen looked into Su Qingsang’s eyes and firmly told her, “You’re quite clever.”
“Thank you. All I did was make a fair judgment.” Su Qingsang pointed at the door.
She had a feeling that the woman would call her family to help her against that tall and strong man. If she guessed right, the woman’s reinforcements should be on their way by now.
“Thank you.” Zhang Yichen had a dashboard camera in his car. He sent the woman to the nearest hospital because she was pregnant and screaming in pain. As for whether or not she was trying to extort him, he hadn’t thought about it much.
After taking the woman into the emergency room, he began to realize what was going on. He thought it would take him some time to solve the problem, but he never expected to meet such a smart doctor.
His eyes landed on Su Qingsang’s badge with her name on it.
“You’re welcome. Just leave. You may not be able to leave if you stay here any longer.”
Zhang Yichen nodded, but he didn’t do as she said.
“Will you be in trouble after I leave?”
Su Qingsang wanted to laugh a little. She turned to look at the man’s stern expression and said jokingly, “Yeah, what’ll happen to me? If I let you go, I’ll probably need to pay for her hospital bills myself. It might even be worse than that. That woman might keep giving me trouble. What a pain.”
“Then I’ll pay.”
“I was joking,” Su Qingsang t.i.ttered. Were all policemen this serious? “I’ll be fine, but I might get in trouble if you don’t leave.”
Zhang Yichen stared at her for a moment. He still had something to do. Thinking about that, he nodded at Su Qingsang and left.
Near the gate of the hospital, he saw a few men walking in hurriedly.
He raised his brows, moved closer to them, then heard the man in the front say, “Where’s the one who hit her with a car? Come on, we can’t let him get away.”
Zhang Yichen remembered what Su Qingsang said. He was still a little worried, but he was also curious about how she would handle the situation.
He glanced at his watch. He still had about fifteen minutes. Without hesitation, he followed behind those men.
Su Qingsang knew that some people would show up and give her a hard time, but she never thought that it would happen so soon.
Seeing the fierce-looking man approach her, she said to him peacefully, “Are you guys Li Hong’s family? She’s in the inpatient department now.”
“Inpatient department? Does she even need to stay here? Is my baby fine?” Li Hong’s husband spoke very loudly.
The volume of his voice caused Su Qingsang’s ears to ache a little. She nodded and said, “The baby is fine. I have already given her an initial exam, but your wife is still a little worried about the baby…”
“Where’s the man?” Li Hong’s husband rolled up his sleeves, seemingly prepared to hit someone.
“I told him to pay the bills. I think he’ll come back soon,” Su Qingsang said calmly.
“Let’s go and find him.” Li Hong’s husband glanced at the few men behind him.
Su Qingsang stayed where she was; they even left someone to keep her under watch.
About five minutes later, Li Hong’s husband and his people returned, shouting, “Where’s that man? Didn’t you say that he’s paying the bills?”
Su Qingsang blinked and looked at him with surprise, saying, “Huh? Is he gone? But I told him to pay for your wife’s medical expenses.”
Despite making herself sound as honest as possible, she still felt a little guilty for making the policeman sound like someone who hit a person with a car and then ran away. She didn’t mean to, but what she did was for his own benefit.
Upon hearing what Su Qingsang said, Li Hong’s husband immediately lost his temper. Some of the people with him suggested going out to find that man, while others proposed making the hospital take responsibility.
Hearing them argue, Su Qingsang raised her voice and said, “Stop!”
“That man told me that he’d pay the bills, so I thought that was what he was doing. However, it turns out that he already left. Now, I want to know which one of you will be paying the hospital bills for Li Hong? After all, she needs to go through some further testing tomorrow.”
“Pay bills? What bills?” Li Hong’s husband angrily glared at Su Qingsang. “Didn’t you say that my wife is fine? We’re not staying here. We’ll go home.”
Su Qingsang frowned as she said, “You’re not staying? I’ve already got her registered. There is also a cost for the exam I did for her just now…”
She was simply trying to tell Li Hong’s husband that his wife could not leave until someone paid what she owed to the hospital.
Hearing her words, Li Hong’s husband took two large steps backward and hurriedly waved his hands.
“Go and find that man. He hit my wife with the car!”
“We would, but he left.”
“Find him then. We don’t have any money!” Li Hong ordered.
The others said in agreement, “Yeah, we don’t have any money. We won’t stay here!”
One of them tugged on his sleeve and whispered, “Bro, just get my sister-in-law out now, or else the hospital will charge us a fortune. They might not let us leave.”
“They wouldn’t dare do that! We didn’t do anything wrong. We’ll leave now!”
While speaking, Li Hong’s husband and his people hastily headed to the inpatient department, as if they were worried that Su Qingsang might forbid them from leaving.
Su Qingsang told them not to leave but didn’t try to stop them.
After those people left, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Zhang Yichen watched the whole thing from a corner of the room. Seeing Su Qingsang deal with those people and then laugh happily after they left, he couldn’t help but let the corners of his lips curl into a smile.
That doctor, Su Qingsang, was quite interesting.
