Chapter 5 - A Failed Revenge
Chapter 5 A Failed Revenge
“Little Qin, go back to check Miss Lin’s condition. Hurry, or it will be too late.”
Ma Guoqiang said in an urgent tone. His future and life were at stake, so, he had to hurry.
“What are you saying?” asked Qin Haodong.
“Miss Lin is not well; she is in danger. Go back help her now, please.”
“How? What did you do?”
Qin Haodong asked in a cold tone. He knew very well about Lin Momo’s situation. As long as the needle was in her body, she would be fine.
“Don’t blame me. Zhang Tianhe asked me to pull the needle out.”
“Bastard!”
Before Ma Guoqiang could finish his words, Qin Haodong landed a mighty kick on his belly and sent him flying. Ma Guoqiang was kicked away like a ball and finally fell into a flower bed seven or eight meters away.
“The big idiot was flying. Playing football is really fun!”
Tang Tang clapped her hands excitedly.
Knowing that Lin Momo was in danger, Qin Haodong immediately gave Tang Tang to An Biru and rushed to the emergency room, leaving his shadow behind.
“Oh God, how could he be so fast?”
An Biru was startled by Qin Haodong’s speed and realized that this young man was not a normal man. She followed him with Tang Tang.
Seeing that Lin Momo’s wound went worse, Lin Zhiyuan was anxious like a cat on hot bricks.
When he saw Qin Haodong at the door, he ran to him in a hurry as if he had seen a lifesaver. “Doctor Qin, it’s all my fault. Please save my daughter. No matter what you want…”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Lin. It will all be fine.”
Before Lin Zhiyuan could say anything more, Qin Haodong had walked to Lin Momo’s bed.
Lin Zhiyuan was slightly surprised. He had thought that Qin Haodong would demand an exorbitant price before consenting to his request. However, Qin Haodong did not ask him anything.
“Get away!”
Qin Haodong pushed Zhang Tianhe away, who was strolling around Lin Momo’s bed. He had no kindness towards the man who almost caused his child’s mother to die.
“Well…”
Zhang Tianhe had always been respected as Master Zhang. Wherever he went, people would smile their welcome and show their respect. He had never been treated like this, but, he dared not say anything against that.
Qin Haodong did not spare him any glance. He felt Lin Momo’s pulse, took out some needles, and inserted them into a dozen acupoints on Lin Momo’s chest.
Magically, Lin Momo’s wound was relieved soon after Qin Haodong put the needles into her body. The instrument besides stopped making alarming sounds.
Zhang Tianhe, Wen Changjiang, and Lin Zhiyuan all opened their mouth in astonishment. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would not have believed that there was such an amazing medical skill in the world.
“Done. She was fine now.” Qin Haodong knew that someone must want to talk, therefore, he waved his hands and said, “Let’s talk outside. Miss Lin needs a good rest.”
They left the room together, and when they walked out, Lin Zhiyuan held Qin Haodong’s hands and said with gratitude and tears, “Doctor Qin, thank you. I really appreciate what you did.”
“You’re too welcome, Mr. Lin. That’s what I should do,” Qin Haodong answered.
Lin Zhiyuan did not know the deeper meaning of Qin Haodong’s words, so, he spoke again, “Momo is my only daughter. Saving her means saving my whole family.”
Qin Haodong replied, “Though Miss Lin’s condition is stabilized now, in case of any contingency, please allow me to stay here to look after her tonight. Are you ok with that?”
“It’ll be so good if you’d like to do so. Thank you so much.”
Concerned with his daughter’s safety, Lin Zhiyuan had been worrying about how to ask Qin Haodong for help. He had not expected that Qin Haodong would offer to do so.
“Doctor Qin, these are the keys of the No.6 villa of the Ruhua district. From this moment on, this villa is yours.”
While speaking, Lin Zhiyuan handed a bunch of keys to Qin Haodong. Qin Haodong received them without hesitation and put them into his pocket. Emperor Green Wood was a distinguished person. In the Cultivation World, someone had even given him a whole city in order to seek his treatment, therefore, a house was not a big thing in his eyes.
Zhang Tianhe regained his sense from the astonishment of Qin Haodong’s magic skill. He put on an ingratiating smile and walked to Qin Haodong while saying, “Mr. Qin, I’d like to be your student if you would teach me your medical skills.”
From what he had seen, he could tell that Qin Haodong’s skills were much more excellent than his. If he could master those skills, he would be able to get whatever he wanted not only in Jiangnan City but also in the entire Jiangnan Province.
He had always sought nothing but profits. As long as he could get enough profits, he would bend to anybody. For this reason, he had put forward the idea of taking Qin Haodong as his teacher. As he saw it, he was a famous person in the city, and he was cheapening himself by doing so, therefore, Qin Haodong would accept his suggestion happily.
However, to his surprise, Qin Haodong did not even look at him and just tossed his head to another side.
“Doctor Magic, hug me.”
Tang Tang struggled in An Biru’s arms, wanting Qin Haodong to hug her, when they walked over. Seeing his daughter, Qin Haodong immediately wore a gentle expression and held her in his arms.
Zhang Tianhe’s expression changed. He suppressed his anger and said, “Mr. Qin, if you can teach me your skills, many people will be saved from this. With my status, it won’t be a disgrace to your skills.”
“It should be that you will earn many houses if I teach you my skills.”
Lin Zhiyuan said coldly. This greedy and incapable Master Zhang disappointed and disgusted him much.
Qin Haodong chimed in with a cold smile. “I possess these skills, but, I don’t want to teach you. What can you do about it?”
Zhang Tianhe shouted excitedly. “How could be like this? You’re dishonoring your skills. It’s not right.”
“What do you think is right?” Qin Haodong asked with a meaningful expression.
“Since I’ve cheapened myself by asking you to be my teacher, you should teach everything that you’ve mastered and let me carry it forward to save more people…”
Hearing Zhang Tianhe’s chatters, Qin Haodong could finally know what the man who preached against stealing but had a goose in his sleeve looked like. He shouted to him, “Go away!”
After the shout, he aimed a kick on Zhang Tianhe, who rolled out along the corridor like a ball.
“Nice! Nice! The old idiot was flying again. Doctor Magic looks so cool.”
Tang Tang got excited again. She kept clapping her hands while saying in a mumbling tone, “Playing football is fun. I want to watch more.”
Qin Haodong was a little depressed, for he saw a violent side of her daughter. However, he also thought that he should satisfy her as she had asked so.
Ma Guoqiang ran to them with dusty and dirty in his appearance and grass leaves on his head, but, before he could say something, he was kicked out by a big foot and sent flying.
Just as Zhang Tianhe rose to his feet, he was knocked down again by the flying Ma Guoqiang. The two rolled on the ground like calabashes.
“Bravo! Bravo! The big idiot was flying again. That’s so funny.”
Tang Tang giggled.
Right then, Wen Changjiang came to Qin Haodong and said, “Little Qin, would you like to work in our hospital? As long as you say yes, you will be our regular doctor immediately.”
Lin Zhiyuan chimed in, “Mr. Wen, Doctor Qin’s skills are so excellent, isn’t it a waste to let him be a normal doctor here?”
“Yes… yes… I’m so stupid that I didn’t make myself clear.”
Before Wen Changjiang could finish his words, Ma Guoqiang went back rolling and crawling.
Zhang Tianhe was not a doctor of Jiangnan Hospital, but Ma Guoqiang was. Therefore, he could not go away just like the crestfallen Zhang Tianhe did. He had to make a living in this hospital.
“Di… Director…”
Before Ma Guoqiang could finish his words, Wen Changjiang said to him in a deadpan, “Don’t call me director. From this moment on, you’re not the doctor of this hospital anymore. You’re fired.”
“Director, please don’t do so. I beg you to give me a chance…”
Ma Guoqiang begged Wen Changjiang, but the latter did not look at him at all and just turned to Qin Haodong with a full smile while saying, “Little Qin, as long as you’d like to work here, you can replace Ma Guoqiang to be a chief doctor.”
Ma Guoqiang looked gloomy. He did not expect that he would lose his position to Qin Haodong so quickly, which he had gained through hardship over the past years. If he had foreseen this, he would not have gone to the director and complained to him. Now, he went for wool and came home shorn.
However, the previous position as a chief doctor in Ma Guoqing’s eyes was nothing in Qin Haodong’s eyes. Qin Haodong wanted to carry traditional Chinese medicine forward, so, he had no intention to work as a doctor in that hospital.
“Thank you, Mr. Wen, but, I’ve not graduated yet, so, I don’t plan to work now.”
“Ah?” Wen Changjiang did not expect the answer and said again in a hurry, “Little Qin, please think again. As for your diploma, I can treat it as a special case.”
“No, I really don’t want to work now.”
Qin Haodong refused again without hesitation.
Wen Changjiang shook his head with pity. He had realized the value of Qin Haodong’s medical skills. If he could have Qin Haodong as a doctor in his hospital, the future of Jiangnan Hospital must be promising. However, Qin Haodong did not accept his olive branch.
“Get lost now! Don’t stay here and bring shame to yourself.”
Wen Changjiang turn around and took his anger out on Ma Guoqiang. He threw him out of the hospital and arranged someone to bring Lin Momo to a VIP room before leaving.
It was ten at night. Tang Tang yawned continuously. Obviously, she was sleepy.
Lin Zhiyuan said, “Doctor Qin, I’m going to take Tang Tang home for a rest. Please take care of Momo, thank you.”
Qin Haodong answered, “It’s ok, rest assured. I’ll take care of Miss Lin.”
“I don’t want to go home; I want to play with Doctor Magic.”
Tang Tang said, arms around Qin Haodong’s neck.
“Tang Tang, go home to have a sleep first, or you’ll be too tired to play with me tomorrow.” Qin Haodong tried to convince her.
“Okay, I’ll go home. Doctor Magic, don’t forget to play with me tomorrow.”
“Yes, I’ll go to see you tomorrow.”
“Let’s make a pinkie promise.” Tang Tang reached out her pinkie.
“Sure, it’s a pinkie promise.” Qin Haodong reached out his little finger and hooked it with hers.
“Doctor Magic, see you tomorrow.”
Tang Tang kissed Qin Haodong on the check before going back to her grandpa’s hug reluctantly.
Lin Zhiyuan left with Tang Tang and left An Biru and two bodyguards there.
