A nurse advised Yang Wei, "It's just a common cold. You can just take some medicine home and take it. There's no need to be hospitalized."
The head nurse sneered, "If you don't have money, don't be hospitalized. Are you from the countryside? Is your daughter having affairs and someone's been targeting you?"
Su Heqian trembled with anger. These were supposed to be angels in white? They looked more like demons! Even in the district clinic, he had never seen doctors and nurses treat patients like this. Did they think that just because they were licensed doctors and nurses, they could disregard professional ethics? Just because they didn't receive bribes or kickbacks, just because their hospital deposit wasn't enough, did they have to put on such a show? This just showed how low the medical ethics were at the Central Hospital!
Yang Wei said coldly to the head nurse, "Watch your mouth, don't let your mouth be as foul as you are!"
The head nurse suddenly rushed over and shoved Yang Wei back a few steps. "You're the one with foul breath! You just called me inhuman, and now you're spewing vulgarities. What do you mean by this? Let me tell you, this is a hospital, not a place for you to run wild! You wait, I'll have security come and kick you out right now!"
After saying that, the head nurse rushed back to the duty room. Because it wasn't far away, you could hear her on the phone even with the ward door open. "Come quickly, she broke two panes of glass and was cursing at us doctors and nurses. She's so arrogant."
Su Heqian looked embarrassed. It started with breaking glass, and he and his daughter did bear some responsibility for that. The insufficient hospital deposit was also their negligence. But did the fat doctor really just watch his hand bleed and ignore it? Did the head nurse have to be so relentless, like a landlord? It's undeniable that some people are running away without paying their hospital bills, but is it really necessary to demand five thousand yuan at once? This is just a cold, not surgery.
The hospital was about to send in security guards. Su Su, anxious, stamped her foot and questioned Su Su, "Ugh! Who did you offend? They actually chased us all the way to the hospital! Are they trying to kill us?"
Su Su panicked and said through tears, "I don't know! It's just that a classmate from our school once broke the window of our family's pharmacy, but he behaved himself after Zhao Qiang taught him a lesson."
Su Su was stunned: "Zhao Qiang? You still have dealings with Zhao Qiang? Why did you ask him to resolve your conflict with your classmate? He must have offended your classmate, so your classmate is retaliating against you! You're confused! I told you long ago that Zhao Qiang is unreliable!"
Yang Wei also said: Su, you were too impulsive. You should have informed your family first if something happened, instead of letting someone resort to violence. Look, now that's what happened, your father is suffering because of you.
Su Su cried, "That bastard Wang Xiaoliang was about to break down the door and brought several thugs with him. I was terrified. If it weren't for Zhao Qiang, I might have been violated by them."
Su Su said angrily, "Let him deal with the trouble he caused. Don't drag us into it. He's a good-for-nothing who's good for nothing!"
Su Heqian said, "Su Su! Shut up. Zhao Qiang isn't the kind of person you think he is. He genuinely wants to help our family."
Su Su stamped her feet and said, "Dad, look at the situation now. I reckon the security guards will come upstairs and kick us out in a bit. Isn't this all his doing?"
Su Su suddenly realized: "That's right. I'll find Zhao Qiang, he'll definitely have a solution!" (Busy, just now... a different experience from the old fisherman's book!)
What happened in Volume 2 [193]?
Before Su Huai could even dial the phone, the security guards rushed over. When they saw the four old things smashed... Pi Li and the others were also very angry, but after peering out for a while, they couldn't find who did it. They only found a black marble on the ground. The security guards were afraid that leaving the patient here would continue to affect the hospital's security, so they shouted at the Su family: "Hurry up and pack your things. Are you waiting for them to continue their revenge if you don't leave?"
They were staying in a regular ward, and the Su family members were dressed in ordinary clothes, so the security guards didn't hold back. Although Yang Wei and Su Su looked respectable, the guards, used to dealing with important figures, didn't consider them to be entitled to respect and protection. That was the treatment reserved for district leaders and wealthy individuals. If they weren't strict with ordinary people, they might be allowed to cause trouble in the hospital. They had seen this kind of situation many times before.
The overweight doctor and head nurse returned to the ward. The situation continued to worsen. They dared not leave the patient behind. There were shards of glass hidden outside, and they were lining up the broken glass in each ward. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to stay at the hospital. Last time, many people were killed at the Central Hospital, and more than a dozen doctors and nurses were implicated.
The situation was beyond repair. Fortunately, Su Heqian's condition had improved, so there was nothing wrong with him being discharged from the hospital. Su Su started packing her things, complaining to Su Su, "If your brother-in-law were still working at the Finance Bureau, would these people dare to treat him like this? He could just make a phone call to a friend and someone would come to help resolve the issue."
Su Su retorted to her sister, "My brother-in-law is just a bunch of fair-weather friends. It's better not to associate with them. Haven't you realized yet that the orthopedic doctor refused to help me just now because my brother-in-law was in trouble? It's your tragedy to have such friends. And you're actually a little smug about it. I'm really ashamed for you."
Su Su was also furious. She said to her sister, "Fine, you've got guts to mess with a good-for-nothing scoundrel like him. Now you've ruined Dad too!"
Su Su slammed down what she was holding and said, "I'll have Zhao Qiang beat them up! They forced me to do this."
Yang Wei almost laughed. He said to his charming sister-in-law, "Su, don't be naive. This is a hospital! Look, I called the police and nobody cared. If you didn't have some power, who would dare to act like this here! Our family is down on its luck now, so just accept your fate. The day your brother-in-law rises again will be the day they suffer the most!"
A security guard overheard Yang Wei's words and sneered, "Such arrogance! You guys really know how to brag without paying taxes. Let me tell you, shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, we won't be polite!"
No sooner had those words been spoken than a loud bang came from the next ward. Everyone was already familiar with that sound—another piece of glass had shattered!
Two security guards peered out the window. People were coming and going downstairs, but no one seemed to be behaving suspiciously. So who broke the window?
Screams continued from next door. Doctors and nurses rushed over to deal with the situation and returned shortly after, yelling at Su and Qian: "Get out of here now! You've really put us in a terrible situation this time. Security, get them out of here!"
Su Heqian said to his daughter, "There's no other way. Call Zhao Qiang and let him handle it."
Su Su thought she had misheard and tilted her ear to ask, "Dad, what did you say? Are you confused? What's the use of sending Zhao Qiang? It's one thing for my sister to be easily fooled at her age, but how could you be so foolish?" Su Heqian was very angry at his eldest daughter's behavior and shouted, "What do you know!"
Su Su said, "How could I not understand? That guy only knows how to flirt behind people's backs; he can't do anything else!"
Just as Su Su was saying this, someone pushed aside the doctors and nurses blocking the door and walked in silently. Su Su was dialing a number when she suddenly heard her phone ring. The connection was then dropped; the other party had rejected the call. At that moment, the phone that had just been ringing in the ward stopped. Su Su looked up and realized that Zhao Qiang was right in front of her! Of course, there was no need to answer his call.
Su Su felt so wronged. In her mind, the doctor lacked medical ethics and the hospital failed in its duties, so all the blame lay with the hospital. On the other hand, the doctors and nurses who drove them away believed that these patients had caused them trouble, and that they would never move if they were treated kindly. Both sides had their reasons.
Su Su cried and threw herself into Zhao Qiang's arms, "Brother Qiang, why did you take so long to come!" Her voice was full of resentment.
Hu Qian, following behind Zhao Qiang, was somewhat taken aback. Only now did she realize that Zhao Qiang had come to the hospital for this seemingly innocent girl. Hearing her call him "Brother Qiang," Hu Qian felt a pang of jealousy. Seeing Zhao Qiang holding her in his arms, Hu Qian felt a surge of resentment. However, Hu Qian quickly realized that she couldn't let her emotions get the better of her! If she were to lose her temper with Zhao Qiang at this moment, he would probably look down on her!
Zhao Qiang patted Su Su's back, his voice filled with earnest concern, and asked, "What's wrong now?"
Su Su pointed to the broken glass window and said, "The person who smashed the window chased us to the hospital. This is the threatening letter he dropped in."
"Su Su handed the paper that had been shot into the ward with the black marble to Zhao Qiang. Zhao Qiang glanced at it and his face turned somewhat gloomy. He then handed the threatening letter to Hu Qian.
At this time, Su Su and Yang
Behind Zhao Qiang was a woman, a woman so alluring that she could make any man present... She had a charming face, looking seductive yet not vulgar. What caught the men's attention most was her figure, with a slender waist and large breasts that made their eyes pop out. Her bulging breasts, seemingly about to burst out of her clothes, were incredibly tempting.
Bang! Another pane of glass shattered next door. Zhao Qiang shoved Su Su aside and peered out the window. A security guard followed him, cursing as he looked, "Who did this?! Can they turn invisible?" Zhao Qiang squinted at a residential building about 300 meters away, outside the hospital's perimeter. A man was hiding on the third-and-a-half-floor stairwell, watching through a broken window. Although Zhao Qiang couldn't make out what the man was holding, he was certain it was a projectile-firing device. Given the distance between them, Zhao Qiang knew the man could escape if he went out to chase him, so he decided to give up.
However, to prevent the man from continuing to smash the hospital windows, Zhao Qiang deliberately showed himself at the window. Sure enough, the guy shrank back after seeing Zhao Qiang and never appeared again. He should have known that being entangled with Zhao Qiang would not be a good thing. Not long ago, he had been chased by Zhao Qiang and had to hide everywhere. If he hadn't been familiar with the terrain, he would have been caught. Now that he saw Zhao Qiang, he would be stupid not to hide. It was daytime now, unlike at night when it was easy to hide.
The security guard stared at Zhao Qiang for a while but still couldn't figure it out. Seeing Zhao Qiang's pretentious act, he was a little annoyed and shoved Zhao Qiang, saying, "Stop pretending! Go back to where you came from and help them move out. The hospital is keeping a tight security lately, so don't cause any trouble here!"
It's understandable that the hospital has strict security, after all, so many people have died here. Although these security guards may not know about this incident, they are strictly required to do so by their superiors. In order to keep their jobs, they will naturally take advantage of patients. Therefore, Su and Qian must pay compensation and then pack their bags and leave.
When Hu Qian saw Zhao Qiang being pushed, she shouted angrily, "How dare you! Let go of your dog paws!" She looked very loyal to her master.
Although Hu Qian scolded the security guard, he couldn't bring himself to be angry at all, looking at her appearance and figure. He just chuckled twice, seemingly a little shy and bashful. Women really have great courage! Although Su Su was pure and pretty, she lacked the mature charm and allure of Hu Qian. In addition, Su Su's own living environment prevented her temperament from being fully displayed. Hu Qian, on the other hand, had someone specially instruct her in every move and word. So, although the two were similar in terms of talent, their outward appearances were very different. Furthermore, the two had taken different paths: one was mature, and the other was pure. The pure type was naturally at a disadvantage in the eyes of others and was easier to bully.
The security guard wasn't angry at being seduced by Hu Qian's beauty, but the head nurse, being a woman, was filled with jealousy towards Hu Qian. The other woman had a better figure and was prettier than her, which made the head nurse, who was also a woman, resent the injustice of fate. She shouted and tried to push Hu Qian forward: "What are you doing, acting crazy in the hospital!"
Although Zhao Qiang wasn't a womanizer, he had witnessed Hu Qian's magnificent breasts last night, and he couldn't help but feel lustful towards her. He even wanted to possess such a woman with such beautiful breasts. So when the head nurse pushed Hu Qian, Zhao Qiang was very unhappy. He felt like his beloved possession had been defiled by someone else, so he slapped her across the face. Before the head nurse's hand could even touch Hu Qian, she was knocked away and her cheek immediately swelled up, revealing five large finger marks.
The head nurse never expected Zhao Qiang to dare to touch her. In the inpatient department, the head nurse's power was extraordinary. When nurses and patients' families fawned over her, she had never suffered such humiliation. She first shouted and yelled to overwhelm her opponent with her voice, and then prepared to pounce and bite. This was always the specialty of women when fighting. Besides, the head nurse did not believe that the two security guards would remain indifferent. After all, Zhao Qiang was a man, and the two security guards would naturally not be tempted by him.
Hu Qian was delighted that Zhao Qiang had intervened; after all, he had played the hero and saved the damsel in distress. Therefore, her hostility towards Su Su lessened considerably. Su Su, however, didn't consider Hu Qian's appearance. She was completely focused on the fact that Zhao Qiang had slapped the head nurse for her sake, her eyes sparkling. With someone like Zhao Qiang, who wasn't even afraid of the likes of Gan Beiwei, around, these nurses, doctors, and security guards were in big trouble! They deserved to be taught a lesson for bullying her and her father!
The head nurse charged forward, brandishing her claws. She was prepared to first disfigure Zhao Qiang, then tear his clothes to shreds, and stomp on him mercilessly. To cause trouble in a hospital, especially in a district with such strict security, was practically suicidal! No matter how much she protested, the head nurse believed she was in the right, especially with the fat doctor backing her up: "Scratch him to death!"
Thank you to the six individuals who donated coins! Thank you to the scoundrel for the Jianghu Ying coin donation! Thank you to Lianchen, Taiyanggeshisha, Xiaoxiaoqiushuishouluanmodagege, Zuishukuangshengzi, Tianxiazhiyouwo, Shuyouzhao, Sha, Chouzhaonai, and Mr. Yang for their donations! (There are...)
Volume 2 [194] You, Yang Wei, are the real 250
"Garlic curtains are ruined!" she stomped her feet and cursed. "Zhao Qiang, you bastard, you've caused trouble for our family!"
Yang Wei went to pull Zhao Qiang away, not wanting him to continue the conflict with the hospital. If he wanted to fight, wouldn't he have already done it?
Zhao Qiang shoved Yang Wei aside, ignoring Su Su's curses, and kicked the brown-skinned head nurse who was rushing towards him in the stomach. The head nurse's body came to an abrupt stop, and she flew backward, crashing into the fat doctor's stomach. The fat doctor took two steps back and could no longer maintain his balance. He fell backward and hit the wall behind him with a thud.
Wow, the head nurse collapsed to the ground, clutching her stomach and vomiting up her leftover food. Zhao Qiang's kick almost shattered her stomach. A foul odor filled the ward, whether it was from the spoiled food or from the head nurse's incontinence. Luckily, the broken window provided good ventilation, otherwise, it could have made others vomit as well.
The fat doctor rolled his eyes, seemingly oblivious to his fate, probably knocked unconscious. Even if it wasn't a concussion, it was enough to give him a hard time. Meanwhile, the head nurse was crying and snotting, constantly gagging, too exhausted to even curse. The two security guards hesitated for a moment, but considering it was two against one, they rushed forward, one attacking from the front and the other sneaking up from behind.
Zhao Qiang ignored the one who attacked from behind. After all, these two security guards were unarmed and had no weapons. What could they do to Zhao Qiang if they attacked him? The one in front lunged at Zhao Qiang and tried to grab his neck. Zhao Qiang grabbed his arm and twisted it. Crack! It didn't break, but it was dislocated. In pain, the security guard lost his ability to attack and lay on the ground rolling around with one arm in a sling. Of course, the possibility that he deliberately exaggerated his injury cannot be ruled out.
Seeing Zhao Qiang's ruthless attack, the man who attacked from behind grabbed a chair and yelled as he hurled it at Zhao Qiang. Zhao Qiang caught the chair, rendering the security guard immobile. He tried to pull it back several times but failed. Seeing Zhao Qiang's strength, the untrained security guard immediately deflated, threw the chair away, and turned to flee the ward.
Without hesitation, Zhao Qiang swung the chair in his hand, which hit the fleeing security guard squarely on the back. With a scream and a cracking sound, the chair shattered, and the security guard fell to the ground.
The patients and their families who had been watching the commotion scattered in all directions. The situation had escalated, and they dared not linger any longer. Even those who wanted to watch kept their distance. Several nurses who had been observing also fled; they wouldn't dare help the head nurse even if they stayed. Not helping the head nurse would incur her wrath, so why not escape? Of course, their stated purpose was to find help and notify the doctors in the internal medicine ward to come and assist.
Having offended the doctor, head nurse, and security guard, Su Su was furious and almost slapped Zhao Qiang across the face. Of course, she didn't dare to hit him, otherwise she would have. "Zhao Qiang, what have you done!"
Su Su said confidently, "Sister, I won't allow you to curse Zhao Qiang! He's helping us. Don't you have the ability to distinguish right from wrong?"
Su Su said, "I don't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong? Su, do you know how big this matter has become? Your brother-in-law barely managed to keep his job. What will he do if he gets involved in this incident again?"
Su Su pointed at Su Su and said, "Su Su, you don't deserve to be my sister! You don't deserve to be Dad's daughter! Look at what you've done lately! Do you even care about this family or Mom and Dad? What is Yang Wei anyway? A big-mouthed idiot who only knows how to talk big and put on airs! He has no ability to do anything practical. You've even abandoned Mom and Dad for him. Just get out and live with him, and never come home again!"
Su Su's words made her older sister tremble with anger, and Yang Wei's face also turned red. If Su Su wasn't a girl, he would have pounced on her and started fighting.
Su Su rushed up and practically twisted Su Su's ear, saying, "What did you say? Say it again! If I wasn't worried about you getting into trouble, would I care? You have no idea how dangerous society is. If everything could be solved with fists, what would be the point of the police station! I told you long ago, Zhao Qiang is untrustworthy. He's more trouble than he's worth. When the police come, let's see if he still dares to use his half-hearted methods! In the end, our family will have to pay for the compensation. You, you're making me so angry!"
Yang Wei said, "Su Su, forget it, the child is ignorant. I'll call someone right away. Sigh, I really don't want to ask for favors. This time I'll have to spend a lot of money on gifts. It's all because of this idiot classmate of yours. What did you send him here for?" Su Su jumped up and down, saying, "Who's the idiot? You, Yang Wei, are the idiot! Do you know who lent you money to pull you out of the abyss of corruption? Do you know who begged Secretary Zhang not to punish you? You know nothing! You don't know anything. If it weren't for Zhao Qiang, you would be in jail eating cornbread by now! And you're still standing here making sarcastic remarks?"
Su Su froze, wondering if she had misheard again. "Su, what did you say?"
Yang Wei exclaimed, "We can't accept that! He himself said he only earns a few hundred yuan a month. Where would he get the money to lend us? Secretary Zhang? You mean District Party Secretary Zhang Zhiqiao? Don't even mention Zhao Qiang, even if I begged him personally, it wouldn't work!"
Su Su snorted and said without any politeness, "Who do you think you are! You personally begged him. Our family's pharmacy lost power, and it was Zhao Qiang who made a phone call to Zhang Zhiqiao, who personally contacted the power company to restore power!"
Su Hejia was at his wit's end. His two daughters were arguing incessantly, so he had to say, "You two sisters, stop arguing! Aren't you afraid of becoming a laughingstock?"
Faced with this situation, Zhao Qiang chuckled and ignored it. Hu Qian had already called two bodyguards to come over. She felt that things were going to get messy again today, so she should prepare in advance. Once Zhao Qiang made a move, there would be no peace. Although she was a little annoyed by this, she was also secretly pleased. After all, this was an opportunity to show herself in front of Zhao Qiang. She was a little frustrated that Yang Shiqi had stolen the credit last time, so this time she was determined to make a big scene. Her status was no less than Yang Shiqi's. She was just too cautious. What was there to be afraid of in Hedian District?
Su Su ran over to her father and asked, "Dad, is what my sister said true?" Yang Wei also looked incredulous.
Su Heqian said, "Yes, your sister wasn't lying, Su Su. You're too impetuous and materialistic. You can't be like this; you'll suffer sooner or later. If it weren't for your classmate Zhao Qiang, Yang Wei would have been expelled long ago. What's worse is that if Zhao Qiang hadn't lent you money through your sister, Yang Wei might already be under investigation and in jail."
Su Su was so shocked she couldn't speak, and Yang Wei was also at a loss for words. Who could have imagined such a truth? After a long pause, Su Su finally asked, "Su, did Zhao Qiang also give you that money and car?"
Su Su nodded: "Yes, sister, Dad is right. But there's one thing I need to correct. Zhao Qiang didn't lend you the money; he gave it to me. Your actions have infuriated him, you know? So he won't help you. Even if I plead for him, he won't care about this matter." Actually, Su Su wasn't entirely without ulterior motives in saying this. She was a little afraid that Zhao Qiang might suddenly change his mind about her sister, so she wanted to interrupt his thoughts through her sister. In fact, Su Su was overly concerned about Zhao Qiang. Su Su's previous actions had already made Zhao Qiang give up on her, and there was no possibility of him turning back.
At this moment, Su Su felt a mix of emotions. Zhao Qiang was actually a rich man. She had been looking down on him and mocking him at every turn, but in the end, it was he who saved Yang Wei. Thinking back to the class reunion when he said that Zhao Qiang was a toad trying to eat swan meat, Su Su realized that she was the toad. She had offended Zhao Qiang so much that if her sister hadn't asked him for help, he might not have lent her money to save Yang Wei, and she would have had no chance of regaining her status in his heart.
It was too late. Everything was over. She had spent half her life pursuing the happy life of the wealthy, only to have it slip away so easily. Regret, frustration, and all sorts of thoughts flooded Su Su's mind. She couldn't control her emotions; first, she silently wept, then she burst into tears. Suddenly, she missed the simple days of the past. If society hadn't corrupted her into a materialistic and snobbish person, would this have happened? Once upon a time, Su Su was also a simple girl, just like her younger sister now. If Zhao Qiang were to cherish Su Su wholeheartedly now, how happy she would be.
Su Su wept bitterly, overwhelmed with mixed emotions. Yang Wei stood there, unsure of what to do. Su Su happily hugged Zhao Qiang's arm, softly calling him "Brother Qiang," which made Zhao Qiang feel incredibly comfortable. His arm occasionally received the special treatment from Su Su's chest. Although Hu Qian was very angry, she could only stand aside with a forced smile. It would take time for the two bodyguards to get over from the third village in the city. Otherwise, she would have started a fight, smashed up the ward to vent her anger, and then used the opportunity to separate the two who were stuck together.
"Where?" came a voice from outside, seemingly alert to the arrival of the police. Two doctors and several nurses ran out of the office, pointing to the wards at the end of the corridor, saying, "They're over there. There are still several injured people inside who haven't been saved."
Given the recent urgency in the crackdown on organized crime, the leading officer was armed, while the others carried stun batons—all lethal weapons, a stark contrast to the past when only rubber batons were used.
Police quickly surrounded the ward entrance. The lead officer used his gun to quell the situation and shouted inside, "Who called the police?"
Su Su quickly wiped away her tears and said, "It's me."
The police asked, "What exactly happened?" The situation at the scene was a bit chaotic. It wasn't inappropriate for Su Su to admit that Yang Wei had made the call, but the police felt that the person standing was the one who made the call, while the people lying down were hospital staff and security guards. This matter was not easy to handle.
The head nurse finally stopped vomiting, and her churning stomach finally calmed down. She shakily got up from the ground and spoke to the police first: "These people injured us. They have a grudge against outsiders, and they came to the hospital to retaliate. We asked them to leave so as not to affect other patients, but they didn't listen and instead injured us. Look, Dr. Sun's life is in danger, and these two security guards are also seriously injured."

Volume Two [195] High-Ranking Officials
The truth of the matter is indeed as described. However, the head nurse with melasma and Gan Shisheng used extremely rough and rude methods, and they didn't proactively treat Su and Qian's wounds when they were injured, leaving them bleeding until now. This exposed their lack of medical ethics and was the main reason for the escalation of the incident. But the police can't investigate so many things; what they need to do is arrest the troublemakers and interrogate them.
Several police officers approached Zhao Qiang with their arms crossed. Hu Qian watched Zhao Qiang nervously, not because she was afraid he would be arrested, but because she was genuinely afraid he would kill again. After all, she wasn't Yang Shiqi, and it was uncertain whether she could suppress the incident with an iron fist. She had no experience dealing with the deceitful dealings of these spoiled brats.
