Huo Jinyao doubted it. He thought further than she did, and he thought of another thing.
“Zhan Haoze helped you?” He asked.
“Yes.” Zhan Haoze’s name reminded Su Qingsang of Shi Mengwan. “If he hadn’t helped me earlier today, I might have suffered a few more punches. Should we invite him for dinner sometime to thank him?”
“I’ll do it. You don’t need to worry about that,” Huo Jinyao wasn’t as simple-minded as Su Qingsang. Zhan Haoze was obviously trying to befriend him.
Recently, Tianyu Group was doing a quite big project together with the Li Family and Qiu Family. Quite a few companies in Lin City had eyes on them.
Zhan Haoze may not have wanted a share of that project, but it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t want future opportunities like that. He was pretty ambitious.
Huo Jinyao stopped thinking about that, as he cared about Su Qingsang’s injury more.
“Does it hurt?” He dropped his eyes, gently stroking the bruise with his fingers. He looked as if he were in anger and paid.
No matter whether the one who hurt his wife did it on purpose or not, he would not let him get away with it easily.
“Yes,” Su Qingsang answered his question frankly, “It really hurt. When he punched me, I felt as if my stomach was going to explode.”
“Would you do it again?” Huo Jinyao, on hearing what she said. He raised his head and looked at her.
“What do you mean? I was his attending doctor. I surely needed to explain things to the patient’s family.”
“So you explained, but did he listen?”
“That was his choice to make. It wasn’t my fault, was it?” Seeing that Huo Jinyao was still wearing an unhappy look, Su Qingsang put her arms around his neck and said, “Alright. I promise that I’ll be careful next time. I will be really careful. Okay?”
“You want a next time?” Huo Jinyao laughed with anger when he heard what she said. “What happened today was not your fault indeed, but haven’t you realized that every time something like this happened in your hospital, you were the one who rushed straight into it? There are so many other people in your hospital, so why do these accidents happen to you every time?”
First, it was Zhang Mei, then Li Rongrong, and this time, Liu Xiangyu.
Apart from Li Rongrong, Su Qingsang was trying to help the other two, but why did she end up suffering such results?
Su Qingsang had nothing better to say. “What happened today was really an accident. Normally, most of the patients’ families are reasonable people.”
“Most of them? You don’t want to meet another unreasonable one.” Huo Jinyao found the bruise on Su Qingsang’s stomach very unpleasant to the eye. “You only got punched in the stomach this time. What do you think might happen the next time? What if you get hit in the face? What if your head gets injured?”
“Don’t scold me…”
“Darling, I am not scolding you. I am trying to tell you that you don’t need to try to solve this kind of problem on your own. You have many male doctors in your hospital, right? Don’t step up to the frontline next time.”
“We do have a lot of male doctors in the hospital, but most of the doctors in our gynecology and obstetrics department are female.”
“So you think you did the right thing,” Huo Jinyao was a little pissed off. He reached out a hand to pinch Su Qingsang’s cheek.
“It hurts,” Su Qingsang looked at him with a grievance. “It really hurts.”
“Suck it up then,” Huo Jinyao was really angry. Still, he relaxed his fingers and found some ointment for Su Qingsang.
He looked irritated, but his movements were very gentle. Su Qingsang watched his fingers and somehow liked it.
His hand was warm. He put his warm hand on her stomach, which made her feel a lot better than before.
“Alright,” Huo Jinyao retracted his hand. “Get into bed. I’m going to wash my hands.”
He washed his hands in the bathroom but didn’t go out immediately. Instead, he took out his phone and pressed a few numbers.
Unlike Su Qingsang, he didn’t think that what happened at the hospital earlier today was only a scene caused by some patient’s family. He believed it was deeper than that.
