Chapter 542: The Brother-Supporting Demon
Wang Shou really didn’t sleep well that night!
Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, after all, the repair of the near-liver vein injury was too enticing for him. @@novelbin@@
But that’s how it is with people, the more annoyed you are, the more things pile up.
After ten o’clock, his wife suddenly came over and said to Wang Shou, "Old Wang, my brother’s construction payment hasn’t come through these past few days, and he’s still short of 200,000."
Hearing his wife say this, Wang Shou was really annoyed!
This brother-in-law is just useless, constantly coming to him for money, one day it’s construction payments, the next day it’s wanting to meet some official, and the day after that it’s this...
"Let’s talk about it tomorrow, I have things to deal with," Wang Shou said directly.
Upon hearing this, his wife’s expression changed dramatically, "What do you mean? You won’t give it?"
Seeing his wife react like this, Wang Shou felt helpless immediately, "I really have things to deal with right now, can’t we talk about this tomorrow?"
Instead of calming down, his wife said, "Wang Shou, think about it, when you first started working, who took care of us? How can you be so ungrateful?"
Wang Shou was already in a bad mood and hearing his wife say this, he slapped the table immediately, "When we first got married, sure, he helped us, but don’t you have any idea of what I’ve done for him?"
"Over the years, how much has he borrowed from me? If not a million, then surely seven or eight hundred thousand, right? Every time he borrows, has there been a single time he repaid?"
"To help him with his damn troubles, I, a director, acted like a servile grandson, pulling strings for him, finding how many people? Giving how many gifts, what has he said?"
"I’m telling you, I don’t owe him anything!"
His wife was clearly a typical "brother-pampering demon". When they first got married, the salary of a doctor wasn’t very high, his wife was pregnant and not working, and his brother-in-law had given some help for a while.
But later on, it got worse and worse. Not to mention other things, but all the good cigarettes, good liquor from their own house were eagerly given to the brother-in-law while his own brother came and left without any, unwilling to share!
That’s not important, but over the years, how much money has this brother-in-law borrowed?
Thirty or twenty thousand doesn’t even count as money to him anymore; today it’s for renovation costs, tomorrow for material costs, the day after for workers’ wages, the day after that for construction payments...
I’ve handled hundreds of thousands for him, and I don’t even know how much my wife has given him secretly!
Do you really think this brother-in-law is in the construction business?
Relying on my reputation, running a shell company, he claims to be doing construction every day, when in reality, he’s off gambling.
Yang Wanxiu, hearing that Wang Shou was clearly angry, spoke no more.
But her parents called, begging, saying the debt collectors were at the door and ready to resort to violence without payment. She was at a loss.
"Husband... just help him this once. The debt collectors have already come to our door, my parents have already cried about it; please just help him!"
Wang Shou scoffed. How many times had he seen this routine?
"Wife, it’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s that I can’t. Where does he really need construction funding? Don’t you know the truth? This is just gambling debt! No matter how capable I, Wang Shou, am, I can’t help a gambler, can I?"
"Moreover, let’s drop this matter. In the future, don’t let your brother step foot in our house. If you give him money again, or our household items, let’s get a divorce!"
"Also, don’t call our son. Ask yourself, what kind of mother are you? Your brother is already in his forties, a grown man. Are we even a family anymore? Haven’t you noticed how much money I’ve saved over the years? Where do you think it has all gone, don’t you have any idea?"
That one sentence took Yang Wanxiu completely by surprise.
Having said his piece, Wang Shou no longer felt like performing surgeries and went to rest in his son’s room next door.
...
...
A wordless night passed, and the next morning, Wang Shou got up for work without having breakfast.
Yang Wanxiu spent the whole night receiving dozens of calls, all from her parents and brother, just as Wang Shou said. Over the years, taking advantage of the help they had provided in the past, they intensified their demands. This time, no matter how much her parents cried, she had no way to help them.
Now they dare not call Wang Shou, so they could only resort to asking Yang Wanxiu for help.

Around ten o’clock in the morning, Wang Shou suddenly saw a call from his wife, and he couldn’t help but sigh. After all, they were husband and wife. Angry as one might be, could they really get a divorce?
He had been bothered by her family too, otherwise he wouldn’t have asked for such a high specialist fee. People are forced by life’s circumstances.
As soon as he answered the phone, Wang Shou heard his wife crying heart-wrenchingly:

"Husband, something terrible happened, Yuanzhong has been stabbed by debt collectors! He’s continuously bleeding in the abdomen right now!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Shou’s face turned pale, "You’ve been stabbed and you call 120 and 110, what are you doing calling me!"
Yang Wanxiu couldn’t stop crying, "I... I already called, the ambulance is on its way to the Second Hospital now..."
Hearing this, Wang Shou immediately hung up the phone and rushed to the emergency department.
The director of the emergency department had already received a call from the 120 emergency center and started preparing right away!
About five minutes later, the ambulance stopped.
Hastily organizing the rescue effort, the patient was bleeding profusely from the abdomen, his face deathly pale. Even abdominal compression to stop the bleeding seemed utterly ineffective!
The accompanying doctor said with a grave expression, "Severe abdominal bleeding, blood pressure only at 70/40mmHg! The patient went into shock a minute ago!"
Wang Shou quickly said:
"Prepare blood!"
"Rehydrate!"
...
"Also, get ready for blood work and surgery immediately!"
Patients with such urgent abdominal trauma and significant bleeding are honestly very dangerous and could be life-threatening at any moment.
After the preparations, Wang Shou and the head of the emergency department personally got ready for surgery.
Once in the operating room and opening up the abdomen, they saw Yang Yuanzhong’s liver had been pierced by a knife, and even the surrounding blood vessels were severely damaged.
The most fatal thing was that the knife was still stuck inside the abdomen, having penetrated into the hepatic vein!
Fucking near the hepatic vein, too!
Seeing this, Wang Shou nearly lost his mind!
This... he didn’t dare guarantee the success rate of the surgery.
At this moment, the head of the emergency department at the Second Hospital, Xu Zeng, also had a stern look, "Director Wang... the surgery is risky, have the family sign a critical condition notice, we can’t guarantee anything either!"
Sometimes Wang Shou thought, it would be alright if this bastard died!
But thinking of his wife’s situation, he gritted his teeth and picked up the phone to call He Tong.
"Director He, I need a favor, could you give me Chen Cang’s number, please?"
...
After a few days off, Chen Cang returned to work, and Wang Kai’an and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Team Leader Chen, if you hadn’t come back, we might really have been done for here."
"Yeah, you have no idea how exhausted we’ve been these past few days!"
Wang Kai’an smiled, "Fortunately, nothing happened."
"Right, we’ve been on tenterhooks every day, scared that a critical patient might come in."
Chen Cang smiled, "You all have worked hard."
Just then, the phone suddenly rang!
