Chapter 756: [756] Medical staff work together Chapter 756: [756] Medical staff work together Doctor Lin stood by, his face etched with annoyance.

He wondered whether he should get involved with this patient. The family had asked him not to, to stop treatment. Arguing with them would be sticking his nose where it didn’t belong and would only invite trouble.

But if he didn’t interfere, this patient, so young and possibly still savable, would certainly die if left untreated.

A human life lay in the balance before the doctor; to save or not to save?

Moreover, that bastard of a family member, bringing in the patient and then secretly leaving her here, was almost certainly trying to pin the blame for the patient’s death on the hospital.

“Teacher Lin,” Xie Wanying called out for the second time.

Lin Chenrong came to his senses and walked back to her side, asking, “What’s wrong?”

Xie Wanying quietly revealed the girl’s bruises to the teacher.

Doctor Lin’s complexion turned pale, thinking: Things are getting more serious!

He would likely need to call the police. He picked up his cell phone, ready to contact the police station, while keeping a wary eye on the potentially explosive family member.

“Teacher Lin, maybe we shouldn’t startle the snake by beating the grass, let’s make an excuse that she needs emergency care, and take her to the resuscitation room and lock the door. We can examine her for injuries when the police arrive,” Xie Wanying whispered.

Doctor Lin glanced up at her: That’s a good idea.

It would require cooperation from the nursing staff. Doctor Lin walked briskly to the nursing station to seek the head nurse’s help with the arrangements. With additional colleagues, they would be a force no family member could stop.

In no time, a group of nurses and doctors emerged, swiftly lifted the patient onto the gurney they had brought, and pushed her towards the resuscitation room.

Father Lili, who was on the phone, turned around and noticed the commotion, coming up aggressively, “What are you doing? I said she’s not staying in the hospital.”

“This isn’t about hospitalisation anymore; her heart is about to stop, she needs resuscitation. Family members, please wait outside, the resuscitation room is not open to families.” With a bang, the assertive emergency nurse manager directly shooed him out, closing the door behind him.

Father Lili was dumbstruck, left standing outside.

“Did you make the call?” the emergency room head nurse turned to ask the others.

“Already did,” several colleagues replied in succession, “We told the police there was an assault. They said they would arrive soon.”

Saying that the patient required resuscitation wasn’t a lie. After connecting the girl to the heart monitor, none of the values displayed on the machine were good.

“Heart rate is up. Blood oxygen, low. Blood pressure is also dropping.”

Lin Chenrong could only perform basic emergency treatment on the patient for now, and to arrange for a hospital bed in the department, he had to wait for the police to come and assess the situation.

Hospitalisation for the patient required a deposit, and in a case like this girl’s, surgery was a hundred percent necessary. Being a minor without insurance or social security, the treatment costs would be high.

The best outcome would be for police intervention to force the girl’s family to pay for her treatment. But Lin Chenrong couldn’t be completely sure of that outcome, it was a gamble he would have to take.

Seeing Teacher Lin furrow his brows with concern, Xie Wanying understood that this matter wouldn’t be easy to resolve. She glanced at the girl from afar, thinking to herself: Fortunately, she was lucky to have her mother to protect her. This girl had no mother. As the lyrics of that song say, a child without a mother is like a blade of grass.

A nurse poked her head in and called out to her, “Dr. Xie, are you here to pick up the patient for Hepatobiliary Surgery?”

With her own department’s patient having arrived, Xie Wanying had to leave the scene.
