Chapter 375: A Simply Unreasonable Mother (II)
The doctor was angered because of their negligence. He had seen many cases where the family of the patient was careless, but in the end, the ones who were blamed were the doctors! They were accused of medical malpractice. How many times were they beaten because of the lack of consideration and care from the family members of the patients? The doctor did not even remember.
"We are sorry, doctor. It was our fault." Han Yong couldn’t let his two sisters take on the blame and stepped forward. It wasn’t that he cared for Han Ziyan; he just did not want to air the dirty laundry of his family in front of a stranger.
However, just because Han Yong did not want to disclose the truth, it did not mean that Zhai Muchen would also stay quiet. He frowned before stating, "Doctor, they were not the ones who were keeping vigil last night."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Ziyan stiffened. She had been hiding at the back ever since the doctor started to scold Han Ruochen and the rest. She knew that she was in the wrong and did not dare to utter a peep. Han Ziyan expected that with the doctor scolding her three elder siblings, the matter would end. But who would have thought that Zhai Muchen would actually push her into the centre of the fire pit?
"Yes, he is right, doctor. These young ladies were not the ones who stayed behind last night." The nurse had sharp eyes; she had long noticed Han Ziyan, who was hiding at the back. Last night, she went to check on Han Yichen and noticed the young lady sleeping peacefully. The nurse did not wake her up, as she believed that the little girl would wake up on her own. After all, the one lying on the hospital bed was her father, who would have thought that this woman would sleep throughout the entire night?
This was really careless on her part.
The doctor’s complexion turned green when he heard that he had scolded the wrong person. He could not help but suck in a breath. "Where is your mother? I believe she was supposed to look after your father."
Han Ziyan was still embarrassed after being scolded. After all, it was her fault that her father ended up getting another surgery. So when the doctor asked where their mother was, she did not dare to tell the truth. After all, Meng Yunhan left the hospital not long after Han Ruochen and the rest went home. If she was not wrong, then her mother must have gone to look for her father.
"What’s going on?" Old Madam Han, who arrived at the hospital with her second son, marched over. She looked at Han Ruochen and the rest before questioning, "What happened? I just went to your father’s ward and they said that he was pushed into another surgery. Ruochen, is your father alright?"
"Grandma—" Han Ruochen parted her lips, not knowing how to explain the situation when—
The sound of her cellphone ringing echoed in the corridor. Frowning hard, Han Ruochen looked down and pulled out her cellphone from her pocket. When she saw the name on the screen, she immediately picked it up. Last time she went to Han Jianyou’s school, she was worried that the teachers would not be able to reach her, so she left her number with the school.
Now that the teacher was calling, Han Ruochen was worried that there was something wrong with Han Jianyou. "Hello? Teacher Jiang?"
"Hello? Is this Han Jianyou’s sister? I am Teacher Jiang. I wanted to ask if your family has run into some kind of trouble?"
When Han Ruochen heard the question, she could not help but frown. What was going on? They had indeed run into trouble, but she had not called or relayed the news of her father being admitted to the hospital to Han Jianyou. So how did Teacher Jiang find out?
"Teacher Jiang, what’s going on? Is Jianyou alright?"
"Jianyou is fine. It’s just that your mother has arrived at school. She is insistent on making the school return Jianyou’s school fees on the pretext that there is something wrong at your home. Even when we refused, she was adamant about making a fuss and was clamouring for us to suspend Jianyou from the school. I just wanted to ask if this is what your family wants?"
Han Ruochen’s eyes darkened, and a surge of rage flooded her head. She clenched her fists and spoke through gritted teeth, "Teacher Jiang, there is no need to make any decision. Jianyou will continue his education. As for what my mother said...there is no need to pay attention to her. I am really sorry for what she has done. Please keep her there for the time being; I am coming to the school."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Old Madam Han and parted her lips.
"There is no need to say anything. I heard what the teacher said." Old Madam Han was so angry that she was on the verge of losing her temper. If not for Zhai Muchen standing in front of her, she would have spewed countless curses then and there. Don’t think she did not know what kind of shit Meng Yunhan was stirring. She was her daughter-in-law for more than twenty years. Old Madam Han could sniff the air and tell what kind of fart Meng Yunhan was going to make just by looking at her scrunched face.
She glared at Han Ziyan, who stiffened and lowered her head like a quail before turning her attention to Han Ruochen. "Let’s go. We will deal with that mother of yours." She then turned to Han Yong and Han Xuehan before adding, "You two...stay here and take care of your father. I don’t dare to leave your father in the hands of anyone else." Though she did not scold Han Ziyan, her words were enough to slap Han Ziyan.
