Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 187 Suspended

Jiang Rourou rubbed her wrist, which had been pinched red by Mu Sha, and said, "Forget it, it's not worth arguing with her. She's just jealous that Xingjie likes me. Once I become the young mistress of the Qian family, I'll see how I deal with her!"

Jiang Xue hugged her daughter. "Yes, when that time comes, we'll make those who looked down on you suffer!"

On the other side, when Nan Dongxue returned home and saw his study, which had been "completely ransacked," his vision went black and he almost fell backward.

Not a single penny left, absolutely not a single penny left. All of this was money he had painstakingly saved up over the years, all for the sake of having this retirement money in case the Nan family went bankrupt. Now it's all gone, all gone!

Who did it?
At this moment, Nan Dongxue had nowhere to cry, and dared not call the police, so he had no choice but to accept his fate.

When he got to the backyard, he saw that the lock on the storage room door had been broken and that there was no one inside. He immediately flew into a rage and slammed his fist on the table.

Jiang Xue, how cruel you are! Just wait, I'll make you spit out everything you took from the Nan family.

……

Su Ying came to the hospital to bring the coat that Shen Qingfeng had lent her last time. It was washed very clean and ironed.

"Brother, it's on the ninth floor, I can't be mistaken!"

"Uncle, Second Uncle, you two keep watch at the elevator entrance and don't let that kid get away!"

"Don't worry, we've got your problems covered!"

A group of people stormed into the hospital lobby. Judging from their clothes, they were probably patients' family members. Su Ying was almost bumped into by several of the aggressive people, but luckily she dodged quickly.

Su Ying called ahead to ask, and Shen Qingfeng was at the outpatient clinic. There were no patients in the clinic when she arrived.

"You could have just given me a call. I could have come pick it up whenever I had time. It's a long way from your company!"

Shen Qingfeng handed her a bottle of freshly squeezed juice. Ever since Su Ying said it was delicious, he had specially prepared some in his office.

Su Ying came to deliver clothes today, but he didn't know beforehand, otherwise he really wouldn't want her to run this errand.

Su Ying didn't mind. She took a sip of juice to moisten her throat and laughed, "It's all the same. Anyway, I got off work early today, so I don't have anything to do!"

The moment she finished speaking, the door to the consultation room was kicked open, and several people rushed in—one woman and three men. Yes, these were the same people Su Ying had almost bumped into in the lobby. Her intuition told her that they were up to no good.

"Brother, he's the one who cured my illness!" The woman pointed at Shen Qingfeng and accused him with a resentful expression.

Without a word, the big-headed man called "Brother" grabbed Shen Qingfeng by the collar. "You're that heartless doctor? You look so clean and innocent, but you're actually a liar. What kind of lousy hospital is this? How could you allow such an unscrupulous doctor like you to come in? Huh?"

Shen Qingfeng raised both hands, not because he was weak, but to prove that he had no intention of fighting him and causing unnecessary trouble. "Sir, you may have misunderstood some things. Why don't we sit down and talk it over?"

"I'm not going to talk about it slowly! My sister had a stomachache, and you just prescribed a few medicines and sent her home. But after she got home, her stomachache got worse and worse, and she even foamed at the mouth. She almost died. Luckily, we took her to the hospital in time, and that saved her life. Tell me, how do you plan to settle this?"

The big-headed man craned his neck and stared with his bull-like eyes, as if he could swallow Shen Qingfeng whole at any moment.

Shen Qingfeng remained calm and composed under pressure. "I remember this patient. First, I suggested that she take an X-ray to check the condition of her abdominal cavity before prescribing any medication. However, she disagreed and insisted on taking the medication first to observe the situation. I could only respect the patient's wishes!"

The big-headed man confronted his sister, asking, "Is what he said true?"

The female patient stammered, her expression evasive, "But you're a doctor! Can't you diagnose my condition? You can't even figure out how serious it is? What kind of doctor are you? If you just believe whatever I say, what's the point of me paying all that consultation fee? I might as well treat someone else! To put it bluntly, you're irresponsible, a quack!"

"Doctors are not human, not gods, and certainly not omnipotent. Without examination, we cannot determine the condition and can only prescribe medicine based on our own deductions. Moreover, I clearly told you before you left that if your condition worsened, you should come to the hospital as soon as possible. I am very sorry that this has happened so suddenly!"

The big-headed man spat on the ground, "Pah! Shameless! You're clearly a quack, yet you try to shift the blame onto us. I think you should just quit being a doctor and go back to farming!"

As he spoke, the big-headed man started smashing things randomly, and the woman joined in.

Su Ying couldn't stand it any longer. "You two, get to the point! Your behavior is illegal!"

"I am the law, what can you do to me? Mind your own business!" The big-headed man grabbed a chair and threw it at Su Ying.

Fortunately, Shen Qingfeng protected her in time, taking the hit on his shoulder himself, and Su Ying heard a muffled thud.

"Dr. Shen, are you alright?"

Shen Qingfeng restrained himself by raising his hand, trying to appear calm, "I'm fine, don't worry!"

The next second, his expression hardened, he stepped forward, grabbed the big-headed man's shoulder, and punched him hard.

The room fell silent immediately, and the nurses watching were completely captivated by his handsome appearance.

The big-headed man covered his nose, blood gushing from between his fingers. When he came to his senses, he cried out, "Blood, I'm bleeding! Help, doctor..." The patient's family complained to the hospital director about Shen Qingfeng, and Shen Qingfeng was soon called in for a talk. Su Ying sat on a bench in the corridor waiting, her heart filled with unease.

He finally came out.

Su Ying immediately stood up to greet him, "Dr. Shen, how is he?"

"Let me go to the patient's family to apologize!"

Su Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

But as if catching his breath, he continued, "Also, I've been temporarily suspended!"

Su Ying suddenly looked at him, "Suspended? No, those people attacked first, we were in self-defense! No, Dean, this is so unfair! I'm a witness at the scene, I'm going to go and explain to the Dean!"

"Su Ying!" Shen Qingfeng grabbed her arm.

Su Ying lowered her head, and Shen Qingfeng belatedly realized what was happening, so he immediately let go of her hand, saying, "Sorry!"

"No need. I shouldn't have hit someone. Suspension is fine. Just treat it as a long vacation. I haven't had a proper rest in a long time. This is a good opportunity!" Shen Qingfeng said, pretending to be relaxed.

Although he acted naturally and flawlessly, Su Ying could still sense his dejection, as well as his love and reluctance to leave his position.

She knew perfectly well that he had attacked her because of her, which made her feel even more guilty and remorseful.

In an attempt to comfort and make amends to him, Su Ying invited him to dinner that evening. She naively believed that the hospital's treatment of Shen Qingfeng was only temporarily suspended, and that he would be able to return to work once the storm passed. However, she was wrong.

I don't know where Su Wen got the rumor from, but it said that Shen Qingfeng was fired from the hospital and his medical license was revoked.

Su Ying was shocked. Shen Qingfeng had kept such a severe punishment decision a secret from her.

He is really...

Everyone knows that becoming a doctor requires a long period of study and training. Having one's license revoked is tantamount to ending one's career, which is an irreversible damage.

Even as an observer, Su Ying couldn't accept this punishment, let alone Shen Qingfeng, who loved the medical profession so much.

Without saying a word, Su Ying went straight to the hospital where Shen Qingfeng worked and found their director.

"First, Dr. Shen followed the work procedures. Second, Dr. Shen acted in self-defense. So, where exactly did he go wrong? Okay, even if he did something wrong, do you really need to revoke his license? Do you know what that means to him?"

The hospital director looked troubled. “If we don’t do this, the patient’s family will take it to court. Then everyone will know, and it will damage our hospital’s reputation. So, we have no choice. We can only say that Dr. Shen was unlucky to encounter such a difficult patient’s family. If he hadn’t been more patient, none of this would have happened. In the end, we can only blame himself for being too impulsive and reckless!”

Su Ying wanted to laugh. "If we don't take action, are we just going to wait to be beaten by those scoundrels? The patient's life is a life, but isn't Dr. Shen's life also a life? Your hospital's reputation is a reputation, but isn't Dr. Shen's reputation also a reputation? It's a misfortune for the hospital to have someone like you as its director!"

She knew she couldn't change the outcome on her own, but she couldn't resist the urge to give the dean a good scolding, which would also be a way of venting Shen Qingfeng's anger.

She then called Shen Qingfeng, but no one answered.

Su Ying had never been to his house before, and she didn't want to go there directly to find him, fearing he might do something rash. So, Su Ying hurriedly sought help from Su Wen.

“I remember Dr. Shen telling me before that whenever he was under a lot of pressure, he liked to go somewhere to vent… This shouldn’t be true, right?”

Su Ying urged, "Stop talking nonsense. A possibility is better than no possibility. Hurry up and take me to find someone!"

Half an hour later.

Su Wen took Su Ying to an arcade.

They found Shen Qingfeng, whom they had been searching for, in a corner. He had his coat tossed aside, was bent over, and was operating the buttons on the screen with his sleeves rolled up. His eyes were fixed on the screen, and his expression changed from tense to excited as the game progressed, occasionally letting out a gasp.

If it weren't for his jacket, Su Ying would have thought she had mistaken the two of them. At this moment, Shen Qingfeng was nowhere near his usual refined and elegant demeanor. Instead of being engrossed in playing games, he looked more like a rebellious and unruly teenager.

"Su Wen, are you sure this is Dr. Shen?"

"I wanted to ask you that too, didn't I?"

The moment Shen Qingfeng spotted them, he paused for a moment, then looked embarrassed, like a child caught stealing candy. "What are you two doing here?"

"Wow, bro! I always thought doctors were all dull, bookish types. I never expected you to be so up-to-date! This is totally unexpected!"

Hearing this, Shen Qingfeng became even more embarrassed, unsure of what to do with his hands. "I used to hang out with my classmates a lot in college, but I haven't been here in a long time. Want to play a game?"
