So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 193
Chapter 193: Had To Act Coquettishly Before Him
“Mm, mm. It’s quite painful, Dad. Rub it more gently,” Changqing said coquettishly.
“Why don’t you get Chuyi to rub it for you? He’s a doctor,” Yan Lei said.
“Yours feel more comfortable.” Changqing smiled like a little cat.
Song Chuyi only felt the frustration he suppressed with a deep breath previously in the changing room surging up again.
It was all a plot, all a lie. She was obviously in pain but just refused to tell him.
Why wouldn’t she tell him? Didn’t she always tell him in the past?
“Aye, Chuyi, you’re up.” Auntie Zhang, who was bringing breakfast out, saw him standing by the stairs first.
Yan Lei looked over and Changqing quickly lifted her head up from Yan Lei’s shoulder, saying, “Dad, it’s much better than before now.”
“Hehe, you don’t care for me anymore after seeing Chuyi.” Yan Lei smiled and placed the medicinal oil down. “Alright. I’m going to the office now.”
“Dad, take care.” Changqing waved her hand.
Song Chuyi glanced at her and walked over. He looked at the medicinal oil on the table and squinted. “Who was the one who said she was getting stronger day by day, getting braver day by day? Is acting pitifully in front of your dad and calling out in pain called ‘brave’?”
Changqing suppressed the annoyance within and didn’t try to fight him. “I’m forever a child in front of my dad; so what if I cry out in pain?”
Her face was full of innocence and Song Chuyi felt like he had just swallowed explosives seeing her like that. “Previously… weren’t you the one who said that a married woman became her husband’s baby?”
Changqing stared wide-eyed as though she had seen a freak.
Song Chuyi felt very awkward too. He didn’t expect himself to say something so disgusting. Hence, he added, “You were the one who said it.”
Changqing opened her mouth a little after a while and spat out an “Oh…”
“Oh? What oh?” Song Chuyi’s face darkened.
She has to make herself clear; she has to act coquettishly in front of me. She’s already so old and already married, yet she still wants to act coquettishly in front of Yan Lei? How does that look? Simply preposterous.
Changqing scratched the area on her head where it hurt. He was so annoying.
I’m also human, not a fool. He isn’t even good to her, so why would I still go eagerly to him to be his baby? It’s not like I knocked my head to the point where it doesn’t work anymore.
“If you didn’t mention it, I would’ve already forgotten it…” After thinking for a while, Changqing said, “I don’t even remember something so disgusting and mushy before.”
Song Chuyi really wanted to carry her up and throw her out.
Could she be more shameless? She was so self-confident and thick-skinned when she said it then. Now she actually said it was disgusting and mushy? Why didn’t she find it disgusting and mushy when she said it then? Her face wasn’t even red.
Changqing’s heart trembled more and more from his fierce gaze.
At this moment, Robben ran in from outside towards her.
“Aiya, is our little benben hungry? Let me get you some food.” Changqing quickly got up and retrieved the dog food from the shelf and led him to the hallway outside, where his food bowl was.
After pouring the dog food out, Robben opened his mouth wide and licked the bowl clean in no time at all.
Changqing stroked his head and Robben howled out comfortably.
Song Chuyi came out after having breakfast and saw Robben laying on the floor, looking comfortable while Changqing was stroking his chest. Robben then simply lay on his back with his paws up, opening his mouth and smiling at her foolishly.
Song Chuyi’s temples were pulsing. He shouted ruthlessly, “Robben.”
Robben jumped in fright as he hurriedly stood back up on all fours obediently.
Changqing lifted her head and looked at his gloomy face, feeling annoyed as well but she didn’t say anything.
“What was your hand doing just now?” Song Chuyi frowned and said in a low tone, “He’s a male dog, do you know that?”
“…” Changqing nodded. “I know that.”
“You knew yet you still touched him like that.” His face was so sunken that water could drip out of it. “Not even eating your breakfast, only knowing how to touch a dog.”
At Bo Han Hospital, the nurses and doctors at the same level as Song Chuyi could feel that he was in a bad mood.
Everyone thought he was still bothered about what happened yesterday. Hence, when he went to the director’s office, Director Guo even said with a smile, “I heard about yesterday’s incident; don’t worry so much about it. Everyone will just laugh it off. We all knew clearly that you must’ve been pranked.”
“Mm,” Song Chuyi replied lightly.
It would’ve been better if Director Guo hadn’t mentioned it. Now that he mentioned it, his anger rose. He was the victim yesterday too. He just taught Changqing a lesson, and although it was a little too much, he also apologized, but she still gave him that attitude. What did she mean by that?
Women couldn’t be doted on indeed.
She was obstinate and ignored him. At most, he would ignore her too. Let’s see who’s the more obstinate one.
After coming out from the director’s office, he brought an intern to bed 25 where Madam Wang was. Old Madam Wang, who was 82 this year, had just finished surgery and was in a semi-conscious state the whole day.
When he entered, Old Madam Wang had already finished her drip for quite a while and a lot of blood had back-flowed. The old lady was asleep and didn’t detect it. Her son, who was sleeping on an empty bed beside her, reeked of alcohol.
Zhu Chao rushed up and changed her drip quickly, saying with a sigh, “This son of hers would be just as good not being here. He’s more sound asleep than his mom.”
Song Chuyi’s brows on his icy cold face knitted tightly together.
He knew this person clearly. Song Chuyi personally performed Old Madam Wang’s surgery and he had attempted to look for this Wang Qiang several times regarding the pre-surgery discussion, treatment and signing. He was either nowhere to be found or sitting by the old lady drinking with a bottle of alcohol in his hand. When he was drunk, he would lie at the side to sleep. The most infuriating part was that he was actually nowhere to be seen on the day of the old lady’s surgery. In the end, his wife had to be called over to sign the form for the surgery.
He went up and roughly kicked the bed Wang Qiang was sleeping on. The bed shook but he was sleeping like a dead pig and didn’t even move an inch.
Zhu Chao said, “Dr. Song, forget it. Even if you woke him up, he would be drunk. There was a patient who shared a ward with them and her son’s snoring was so loud that the patient couldn’t stand it and moved to another ward.”
Song Chuyi ignored him with a cold face and reached out to grab Wang Qiang out of bed.
“Mm, who are you? Why are you grabbing me…” Wang Qiang looked at him drowsily.
“Do you know where you are?” Song Chuyi said coldly, “You’re a caregiver, and your mother is the patient, not you. What’s with you lying down all day? You Mom is old and has been unconscious for the entire day, yet so are you. The nurse cannot possibly keep an eye on her all the time. She’s on a drip and once the drip finishes, the blood regurgitates. Your mom already has low blood pressure. Do you still want her to live?”
Wang Qiang rolled his eyes limply at him and said with a breath reeking of alcohol, “I pay the hospital so much every day, so of course the nurse has to take care of her. If something happened, I would find trouble with the hospital. You guys have to pay. Pay for it all. Let me tell you, I… am not ordinary, you know? If you don’t look after her properly, I’ll make sure your hospital won’t be able to continue its operation.”
Song Chuyi squinted his eyes slowly. “The nurses aren’t care-workers. Do you think they have to take care of all her daily activities? As a son, you don’t even care about your mom and are drunk all the time. Are you at the hospital to take care of the patient or do you view this place like a motel where you can just be as drunk as you want?”
“After paying, you have to take care of all her daily activities. You guys better serve her well, do you understand? Let go. Don’t grab me; otherwise, don’t blame me, you brat. When I was beating people up with my fists, you weren’t even wearing diapers yet,” Wang Qiang scoffed slightly, his yellowed teeth chattering non-stop.
Song Chuyi was so angry he pulled Wang Qiang towards his chest. Zhu Chao quickly went up to persuade him: “Dr. Song, calm down. He’s just drunk—you cannot reason with a drunkard.”
“I’m not drunk. I’m very sober.” Wang Qiang said with a snort, “If he were to hit me, he wouldn’t even be able to take a punch from me.”
Song Chuyi took a few consecutive breaths. Why were there always so many weird family members at the hospital?
Just then, the unconscious Madam Wang finally woke up and quickly said with a sigh, “Dr. Song, just ignore him. He’s been drunk for 10 years. It’s already not bad that he came this time. Usually, when I’m feeling unwell, I can’t even find his shadow. If I found him, he would look for a fight. This time, at least he’s still around. Even if he’s drunk, it’s better than not having anyone around.”
Song Chuyi felt his heart aching. He let go of Wang Qiang and scolded him a few more times before continuing to lie sleeping on the bed. In no time at all, he let out a thunderous snore.
Old Madam Wang let out another melancholic sigh at the sight of that.
Zhu Chao said, “Old madam, you have to persuade your son. His face is yellowish and he’s so thin. If he continues to drink like this, he will get liver cancer.”
“I did, but he refused to listen.” Old Madam Wang said, “Last year, he was even hospitalized. After he was discharged, he drank like that again. I only wish for him not to leave before me. Actually, there’s really not much point in living to my age. The son I raised painstakingly is a drunkard, my daughter-in-law has to take care of my grandson who’s studying and my old partner is long gone, aye.”
Coming out from Old Madam Wang’s ward, Zhu Chao lamented while following behind Song Chuyi: “Old Madam Wang is too pitiful.”
Song Chuyi said with a gloomy face, “You just need to go to Hepatology to have a look and you’ll find out how many people are out there who are like her son.”
Zhu Chao quickly shut his mouth. Dr. Song didn’t seem to be in a good mood today.
Song Chuyi gave him a final glance. “Tell the nurse on shift to take more care of Old Madam Wang.”
“… Alright, alright.” Zhu Chao heaved a sigh of relief. Although Dr. Song wasn’t in a good mood, he still had his medical ethics.
After getting off work, Song Chuyi returned to the Yan Household. Auntie Zhang was making dinner and Yan Lei wasn’t back yet. It was so quiet in the large villa that only Robben’s barking could be heard.
Auntie Zhang was a little shocked to see him back. “Changqing called in the afternoon to say that she had a last-minute program to record at the broadcasting station so she wouldn’t be back for dinner. I thought you wouldn’t want to come back since Changqing isn’t coming back.”
Song Chuyi pulled a long face. She didn’t even call him, so how would he know that she wouldn’t be coming back?
It was just him and Auntie Zhang eating dinner together. Auntie Zhang switched on the television in the living room and even switched to Changqing’s variety show, smiling as she listened to Changqing’s laughter on the program while eating.
Although Changqing wasn’t her daughter, after working with the Yan Family for so many years, watching her transition from an undergraduate to working at the broadcasting station and even to watching her on television programs, the sense of pride she felt couldn’t be put into words.
