Chapter 3 Desperate Situation, Tears Shed

  • The phone rang, and Mother-in-law Wang Xiuzhi answered the call.
  • Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak.
  • But he only heard his mother-in-law Wang Xiuzhi crying and scolding on the other end, "Jiang Yan, you useless thing, where have you all gone? Do you know that Xiaobin is in trouble? A group of people just came to the house asking for money, saying he owes them over a million. They even threatened to harm him if he doesn't pay up!"
  • "What?"
  • Jiang Yan was shocked, he didn't expect these people to go to his mother-in-law's house.
  • He hurriedly comforted her, "Mom, don't worry. I know about this, they came to me just now too. Xiaobin must be fine now, they are just looking for him and couldn't find him, so they came to us."
  • Wang Xiuzhi scolded even more fiercely, "You're talking so lightly, Xiaobin is not your son, of course you're not worried. You and Lili hurry over, if something happens to Xiaobin, I won't let you off the hook."
  • Jiang Yan hurriedly explained, "Mom, Nannan is sick, I really can't leave. Lili's phone is off, I can't contact her now!"
  • "Don't pretend, I can see that you don't want to deal with this! I shouldn't have married Lili to you in the first place. You have no money, no ability, and when it's crucial, you're completely useless! If you don't take care of this, I'll make Lili divorce you."
  • Jiang Yan listened to her scolding, feeling anxious and said, "Mom, I will find a way to deal with Xiaobin's situation. Nannan is seriously ill now and needs a deposit of five thousand yuan. I can't come up with it right now. Can you help me with it first? Once I get in touch with Lili, I will immediately pay you back."
  • Wang Xiuzhi suddenly scolded even louder, "What did I say? You can't even come up with five thousand, you useless thing? Whether your daughter lives or dies has nothing to do with me. My son's life is still uncertain! Jiang Yan, you have disappointed me too much. Divorce, you and Lili divorce immediately!"
  • She angrily hung up the phone, leaving Jiang Yan looking helpless.
  • Little Nannan closed her eyes and suddenly started twitching and murmuring, "Daddy, Nannan is so cold. Can you hold Nannan? Nannan is really cold..."
  • "Don't be afraid, Daddy is holding you!"
  • Jiang Yan's heart jumped, knowing that his daughter couldn't hold on any longer.
  • He carried his daughter back to Wang Youde's clinic without waiting in line, barged in directly, and urgently pleaded, "Doctor, please, save my daughter first. I can't afford the hospitalization fee right now, please let her stay in the hospital for treatment first. I will find a way to raise the money, I won't owe you!"
  • Wang Youde frowned and scolded, "Young man, aren't you making things difficult for me? If you don't have money, why are you seeking medical treatment? Hurry up and find a way to raise money, don't disturb me from treating other patients."
  • Jiang Yan was so desperate that he knelt on the ground and begged, "Doctor, saving a life is the most important thing! My daughter is in critical condition, she really can't hold on anymore!"
  • Seeing this scene, the interrupted patient sympathetically said, "Dr. Wang, can't you let his daughter go first?"
  • Dr. Wang angrily reprimanded, "Quiet down, are you doctors or am I the doctor? If you keep causing a commotion, then none of you will be able to see!"
  • Afraid that Jiang Yan would affect his reputation, he called security to forcibly drag Jiang Yan out.
  • As the door closed, Dr. Wang's face darkened as he scolded, "Nowadays, there are all kinds of people, always thinking about getting a free ride! If you don't have money, why come to the hospital? It's just asking for trouble!"
  • Before he could finish his sentence, the door was banged on repeatedly.
  • "Doctor, please, I beg you..."
  • Jiang Yan knelt outside the door, anxiously banging on the door, his head bleeding from hitting it so hard.
  • He frantically felt his daughter's forehead, opening her eyes to check.
  • "Nannan, wake up, don't fall asleep!"
  • He cried out in distress, his voice hoarse.
  • Little Nannan showed no response, already fainting.
  • "Nannan, I'm sorry, Dad!"
  • "Dad is so useless!"
  • Jiang Yan's grief turned into anger.
  • He slammed his head hard against the door, blood oozing out.
  • With a loud bang, he forcibly pushed the door open.
  • The parents waiting in line were shocked, shouting at Dr. Wang, "Doctor, save the child! It's a matter of life and death!"
  • "So pitiful! Please save the child!"
  • Dr. Wang slammed the table, cursing in frustration, "Such a nuisance!"
  • Impatiently, he went out to check, using his stethoscope to listen to Nannan's heartbeat, his brows furrowing as he muttered to himself, "This is not good."
  • The little girl's heartbeat is too fast, she might die suddenly.
  • If she really dies here, he will have to take responsibility.
  • He quickly called the nurse and took Xiaonannan to the emergency room.
  • Jiang Yan's vision darkened and then brightened, as if he was going blind, suddenly becoming blurry.
  • He struggled to stand up against the wall, anxiously asking the people around him, "Where is my daughter? How is she?"
  • "Don't worry, she just went into the emergency room."
  • "Young man, she will be fine, don't worry!"
  • The young nurse, Su Xiaofei, looked at Jiang Yan with pity and worry, holding him and comforting him, "Don't worry, the doctor is treating her inside, your daughter will be fine!"
  • She looked at the wound on Jiang Yan's head, reached out and waved in front of his eyes, "Are you okay?"
  • "Why can't I see anything?"
  • "Nannan, where are you?"
  • Jiang Yan's vision was filled with darkness, as if the whole world had abandoned him.
