Chapter 303 - I Will Pay Chapter 303: I Will Pay
Translator: Lonelytree
As Doctor Zhao prepared to leave, the woman hugged Doctor Zhao’s leg even harder. She explained, “Doctor Zhao, no, I didn’t mean that. Ah Hong… He’s dying. Please, I’m begging you to go take a look at him!”
The woman’s hysterics moved the people around her. However, Mo Li realized this was not a long-term solution. This woman and her husband clearly couldn’t afford to keep their son at this home. They must have taken out all of their savings to send their son here. If they wanted to employ the services here, they would have to turn to the black market.
“Doctor Zhao, my husband and I are begging you, please save Ah Hong!” The woman pulled at her husband, signaling for him to kneel. The man gave up his pride. He knelt down before Doctor Zhao without any hesitation. When the crowd saw the two kneeling parents, some of them started to speak up for them.
“Doctor Zhao, a good deed leads to good karma. Why don’t you help them?”
“You are going to save a life. Perhaps you can take a look at their son and he might not need to die.”
“Please don’t make things difficult for Doctor Zhao. Perhaps the child can’t be saved already.”
The nurse beside Doctor Zhao scoffed and glared arrogantly at the crowd. “Do you think Doctor Zhao really wants the boy to die? She has already given the boy the prescription. What can we do if they can’t afford the medication and machinery anymore? If they have followed Doctor Zhao’s order and attended all the treatment sessions, the boy would have been cured already.” The nurse glared at the people who spoke up for the couple. She seemed to be telling them how foolish and ignorant they were.
“But, our Ah Hong has taken so much medicine and attended so many medical sessions, he hasn’t shown any signs of improving. Doctor Zhao, please help us to look at him again.” The woman pleaded with desperation.
The man’s face colored temporarily with doubt but he quickly joined his wife to plead at the doctor.
“I’m sorry but there’s nothing I can do.”
Seeing how unmoved Doctor Zhao was, Mo Li felt uncomfortable. Even though the couple had no money, it wouldn’t have cost much to take a look at their son. Perhaps there was a cheaper treatment method for their son? Who knows.
Even though doctors weren’t gods and couldn’t bring the dead back to life, they had taken the oath to help all the sick and dying. So how could this middle-aged woman be turning a blind eye to such a great peril? What harm could come from taking a look at a patient?
“Hello.” Mo Li and Mo Yun said at the same time. The siblings shared a look. Mo Yun thought Mo Li planned to support the couple financially as he did but when he saw the suspicion in her eyes, he knew they were not thinking about the same thing.
“I am willing to help sponsor their medical fee for another month but in compensation, I need the two of you to help me do some things.” When they heard that, the couple immediately turned to thank Mo Yun. The woman even kowtowed to Mo Yun. “Thank you, thank you so much! I am willing to do anything you ask of us!”
“I can also help take a look at your son’s illness. Perhaps I can offer a new medical perspective.” Mo Li walked forward and offered. Her words stunned the woman and the man. They were surprised to learn that such a young girl was a doctor.
The crowd felt Mo Li look familiar, but they couldn’t place her. That included Doctor Zhao. From her years in the medical industry, she could judge at first glance that Mo Li was not a doctor. She didn’t carry herself like one.
Doctor Zhao thus burst into an arrogant laugh. Some in the crowd joined her. She looked at Mo Li and Mo Yun. “You two are quite interesting. Do you know where you are? Besides, even if their son is staying in the most common room, it will cost 20,000 RMB per month, which is not a small sum. And do you think treating someone is that simple? Go back home to do your homework, don’t stay here and make a fool of yourselves.”
Doctor Zhao looked at Mo Li and Mo Yun with derision. In her mind, she had branded Mo Li and Mo Yun as naive young master and miss from some unknown family.
She adjusted her coat and turned to leave. Doctor Zhao couldn’t care less about these two troublemakers.
“How would you know I’d fail when I haven’t even seen the patient? You do not uphold your Hippocratic Oath, but it doesn’t mean that all doctors will be like you.”
