My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce - Chapter 490
Chapter 490: Chapter 490: The Old Lady Apologizes
Upon hearing this, the patient was so moved that his face turned red. If it wasn’t for his immobility, he would have knelt down to kowtow in gratitude to Qiao Yin.
Qiao Yin continued, “However, if you want to reach a point where you can move with the same ease as a healthy person, it will take at least half a year. Your muscles are severely atrophied, your bones are not in good condition either, all of it will take time to heal.”
“Also, your overall health is very poor right now. You need to maintain a proper diet; otherwise, even if your leg heals, you’d still be unable to walk.”
“And you need to start practicing standing from now on. This process might be painful and difficult, but you have to persist. Do you understand?”
Tears filled the patient’s face. He understood that Qiao Yin was referencing his suicidal tendencies.
He wiped his tears away and quietly said, “Thank you, Doctor Qiao. I’m so lucky to have come across you. Ever since I got injured during a surgery five years ago, I haven’t been able to stand. I thought my life was ruined, but I never imagined that there could be a cure for me.”
The old lady was also wiping her tears. After crying for a while, she took out a stack of money from a canvas bag and thrust it into Qiao Yin’s hand. “Doctor, here is ten thousand yuan. I didn’t know your medical skills were so powerful, I only brought this much. Please take it for now. No matter how much the future treatment costs, we’ll pay all of it; as long as my son can get better, money is nothing. I also have a house. When I manage to sell it, I’ll use it to pay for the treatment!”
Qiao Yin took the money and handed it to her cousin, then smiled and said, “Don’t rush, you don’t need to sell your house. Our clinic’s charges are transparent and fair. Your son’s condition is indeed a bit complex, and the fees will be a bit higher. This ten thousand can be considered a deposit, and future treatment fees will be deducted from it. When it’s all used up, you can replenish it then.”
As the old lady sobbed, she said with immense guilt, “I’m really sorry for causing you trouble a few days ago.”
“But, someone instigated me to cause trouble here. Otherwise, why would I, a complete stranger to you all, suddenly cause a scene? I didn’t even know there was a clinic here.”
“That person kept telling me that you were the ones who harmed my son. When I’m having a mental episode, I can’t think clearly and I easily believe such things.”
“The first time I caused a scene here, that person led me here. Otherwise, there’s no way I would’ve found this place with my insensible mind.”
Qiao Yin had long known someone was manipulating the old woman. The police had already told her this.
On the other hand, this was the first time the spectators learned about this underlying scheme. Their gaze at Qiao Yin suddenly filled with sympathy.
An impatient person asked, “Old lady, who asked you to create trouble? Do they have a grudge against Doctor Qiao? Her clinic has only been open for a few days and already two groups of people have come to cause problems!”
The old lady shook her head, “I don’t know that person, but he seemed to know my household situation very well. He even knew what would trigger my episodes.”
“Ah? That’s very strange! He even knew how to trigger your episodes? That’s scary!”
“Dear me, could it be that Doctor Qiao’s medical skills are too impressive, resulting in jealousy from others, and they intended to sabotage!”
“Yes, yes, that’s possible! They’re so cruel! They almost ruined such a good doctor and clinic!”
“We were all deceived before, thinking this was a nefarious clinic!”
“Doctor Qiao, don’t worry. We’ll all help clear your name. We’ll come to you for consultations whenever we are ill from now on!”
Qiao Yin smiled and thanked each person, and even agreed to see some of the patients who asked on the spot.
After sending off the old lady and her son, Qiao Yin attended to those who wanted to have consultations.
