When the Doctor Uses A Hack

Chapter 183: Chapter 184: Child, Daddy Just Wants to Be Your Hero!

Qin Yue had finished her night shift, but she lingered and didn’t leave.

Sitting in the office with red eyes, silent, she hesitated for a long time before she got up, changed her clothes, and left the hospital.

Seeing this, Chen Cang sighed, gave Wang Yong a nod, and hurried out after her!

Once outside the hospital, Chen Cang asked, “Where are you going?”

Qin Yue turned her head and glared at Chen Cang, “None of your business!”

Qin Yue then headed towards Tian Jie, a bustling commercial district close to the Provincial Second Hospital. It was the most flourishing area nearby, filled with shopping malls and always crowded.

Feeling like he had been too harsh to Qin Yue, Chen Cang took the initiative to buy her a cup of milk tea and handed it over.

“Don’t be mad, I got carried away earlier.”

Qin Yue snorted coldly, took the milk tea, and sipped it.

Chen Cang and Qin Yue wandered around all day without finding Zhu Yongwang.

As dusk fell and the city lights came on, the night of Anyang City was once again lit up by neon lights.

Qin Yue sighed, “Where do you think he could have gone?”

Chen Cang shook his head, “How would I know?”

Sad songs played on the street, and Chen Gang’s mood suddenly grew heavy.

It wasn’t just because their mission to find Zhu Yongwang had failed, but more because of his own… inner hurdle!

Zhu Yongwang had roamed around for the day, visiting amusement parks, parks, and large shopping centers, taking the blurriest of photos with his old phone.

With a foolish smile, he recorded a voice message on his phone, “Kids, your dad isn’t a good dad, I haven’t been able to take care of you, your sister, and your mom in this life; I’m a bad dad, a trash dad.”

As he spoke, Zhu Yongwang walked into Wangfujing, enviously gazing at the magnificent decorations of the mall, muttering to himself as if it were a palace… smelling the special scent of perfume, Zhu Yongwang’s tears flowed freely.

He didn’t recognise any of the luxury brands around him; the elegantly dressed salespeople, the sophisticated business men and women, all made his head spin.

The security guard, upon seeing Zhu Yongwang who looked like a vagrant, couldn’t help urging him, “Hey, buddy, you should go outside. The manager will scold me when he comes!”

Zhu Yongwang ignored him, silently standing there.

The security guard grew anxious; although there were no explicit rules against beggars entering, they always got scolded by the manager whenever they let them in!

Isn’t everyone just trying to make a living?

Chen Cang and Qin Yue were just passing by when she spotted Zhu Yongwang and dashed inside!

“Zhu Yongwang, it’s me, Qin Yue, didn’t you say I was pretty? Come back with us, we’ll operate on you!” Qin Yue said hurriedly.

Chen Cang sighed; he had been searching all day with Qin Yue, from 10 in the morning until 9 at night.

Eleven hours!

Qin Yue hadn’t slept a wink last night on her night shift, from waking up at 7 in the morning to now, at 9 in the evening, it had been nearly forty hours without shut-eye.

But the stubborn Qin Yue insisted on finding Zhu Yongwang!

That’s Qin Yue for you, with stubbornness and determination in her bones, reminding Chen Cang of the times when she jumped onto the stretcher to perform CPR on a patient, or when she sat in the office, sulking after being scolded by a patient’s family before continuing to work shortly after.

Hearing Qin Yue’s shout, Zhu Yongwang turned around with a smile and then reached into his bag.

This startled Qin Yue!

Not just Qin Yue, but Chen Gang’s face also changed!

Thinking of the rampaging Zhu Yongwang, who talked about taking revenge on society that day, both their faces changed and they immediately lunged at him.

Qin Yue was even quicker to grab the bag and clutch it to her chest.

But then… they saw Zhu Yongwang holding an old mobile phone displaying a picture.

In the photo, three children—two girls and a boy—were smiling innocently.

All of a sudden, Chen Cang and Qin Yue were at a loss for words.

Zhu Yongwang lay dejected on the ground, his eyes brimming with tears, “These are my kids, they’ve never left the county, never seen such a wonderful world, seen such tall buildings, or smelled a scent lovelier than flowers… Will they ever get out?”

Qin Yue’s nose turned sour, and she couldn’t help but choke up, “There will be a chance, there definitely will be!”

Zhu Yongwang was arranged to stay in the emergency ward, preparing for surgery three days after wound treatment on his chest.

Qin Yue helped to get the photos from his phone developed, printing dozens of copies, including their family portrait.

Despite the blurry quality due to the phone’s low resolution, the smiles were clear and unmistakable.

Chen Cang and Qin Yue walked into the ward.

Zhu Yongwang hastily hid something in his hand and quickly got up, “Doctor Qin, Doctor Chen, isn’t it the weekend? Why have you come?”

Chen Cang smiled, “Don’t hide it, we’ve already seen it.”

Zhu Yongwang then took out the photo, “These are my children.”

Only then did Qin Yue see Zhu Yongwang crying; she touched her eyes.

“Your wife is really pretty; both girls look like you, and the boy takes after his mother,” Qin Yue said, smiling as she looked at the photo.

Zhu Yongwang bashfully said, “Not as pretty as you, actually… I was quite handsome when I was young too.”

Qin Yue smiled, “You still look good now!”

Chen Cang said, “Tonight your kids and wife should be here. The hospital administration has arranged for someone to pick them up.”

When Zhu Yongwang heard this, he was stupefied…

“You… How did you know?”

Chen Cang smiled, “We contacted the Public Security Bureau; they cooperated with us and went to pick them up last night.”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yongwang burst into wailing tears.

Qin Yue and Chen Cang were taken aback…

It took a while before he calmed down.

“I didn’t want them to see their dad in such a wretched and incapable state! I… I just wanted to be their hero, not a feeble wretch, a piece of trash lying in a hospital… I’m scared to face them…”

Chen Cang continued, “The surgery would definitely require family presence, and about the money, don’t worry. Our department has donated for you; although your surgery cost is waived, you still need money for the medication, and your wife and kids will need money for food and lodging.”

Upon hearing this, the man’s face turned red instantly, “I can’t accept this!”

Qin Yue sighed, “This isn’t for you, it’s for the kids. It’s not easy for them to come here, and once they arrived, I took them around to enjoy the beautiful sights of Anyang City, to see the tall buildings and big parks, to visit the amusement park… Look, they are so much better off than you. At such a young age, they’ve already seen the big world outside!”

Zhu Yongwang sighed, “Yes, when I was a child, I only stayed in the village, I never even went to the county… But when I was a kid, I had my dad…”

With that remark, everyone fell silent.

Zhu Yongwang got up, sighed, and looked out the window; emergency was on the first floor, and this sickroom had no sky—only a wall!

And in Zhu Yongwang’s eyes… only helplessness and bleakness.

The surgery that had been planned changed after the patient Zhu Yongwang’s family arrived.

Zhu Yongwang refused the surgery.

He left behind a letter and a cell phone with a message, then he left.

Zhu Yongwang ran away…

All the photos had been taken by him.

His wife and children arrived at the emergency room and, upon reading the letter, burst into tears.

Chen Cang was also completely bewildered!

Why did Zhu Yongwang run away?

Where did he go?

What on earth was he planning to do?

Chen Cang thought long and hard and suddenly noticed his clothes hanging there…

Chen Cang quietly took his clothes down.

He found a letter in the pocket.

Chen Cang opened it:

“Dr. Chen:

Thank you, Dr. Chen, for in the last and most difficult days of my life you’ve given me a sense of warmth and hope, and you’ve shown me the last glimmer of light.

I’ve left!

I don’t know how to face my wife and children.

I wanted to be their hero, to protect them against the elements, to be their pillar.

But in this life… I can’t do it anymore.

I don’t dare to see them.

I also don’t have the face to see them.

By the way, I have one last wish. I hope you can do me this favor. After I’m gone, I wish for my organs to be donated to those in need, but I don’t want my children to see my pathetic end!

I don’t want to leave them with any dark memories. I only want to tell them:

Dad isn’t a coward!

Please do this for me, Dr. Chen, you’re a good person. Please contact the organ donation agency for me. If there’s any money, give it to my wife…

Also, please tell Dr. Qin, she’s very beautiful, only someone like you deserves her. If you’re reading this letter by the time it reaches you, I might already be dead, I am in…”

Chen Gang’s face changed dramatically!

He rushed out like a madman!

In the corner outside the window, he saw Zhu Yongwang lying against the corner, shirtless, with a knife in his hands, his gaze fixed ahead, not yet completely dead, but… probably not able to hold on much longer.

Zhu Yongwang’s wife, sensing something, followed Chen Cang out.

Seeing Zhu Yongwang lying in the corner, she threw herself on him like crazy!

“Wife, everything I want to say is in the phone. Tell the kids, their dad isn’t a coward, nor will he do anything bad. Tell them to study hard…”

The woman kept nodding her head.

Zhu Yongwang turned to Chen Cang, “Dr. Chen, I finally found a heart…”

Chen Cang couldn’t hold back anymore; tears streamed down uncontrollably.

“Wife… don’t let the kids see me like this; I’m afraid they will remember it for a lifetime. Tell them their father was a hero who made a contribution to society!”

The wife kept nodding, “Husband… you’ve always been my hero…”

Qin Yue, not knowing when, had also followed out and witnessed the scene.

Zhu Yongwang smiled, “Dr. Qin, you’re so beautiful, only… only Dr. Chen is worthy of you…”

Zhu Yongwang turned to his wife, “Wife, don’t blame the hospital, they’re all good people. I’ve written the will; donate it to those in need… don’t blame the hospital…”

ps: Zhu Yongwang has passed away, having lived out his final life, the ending of his own choosing.

He wanted to die with dignity!

To die like a hero.

He didn’t want to struggle like a coward anymore.

Perhaps everyone could have disliked Zhu Yongwang at the start, but… he is a real person, begging for survival, this was his only choice.

Whether a scoundrel or a cynic, he was just an ordinary person.

But ordinary people can be heroes too!

Ordinary people also have things they would rather die than surrender.

Zhu Yongwang, with his final donation, chose to be a hero at the end.

He wanted to tell his children that he was a hero.

As for me, I don’t dislike him.

ps: In this chapter, I don’t ask for anything, good night to everyone, rest early, and may all men become heroes to their children and wives, and blessings to all women, may you find your hero..
