Path Of Medicine With A System 134 A Strong Body Can't Compare To Violence

The young boy was more energetic now that his temperature had returned to normal. He instantly started struggling and crying in pain due to the displaced needle hurting him. His parents were urging the young nurse Little Li to hurry up, so she was slightly nervous and failed to insert the IV drip needle properly into the boy's arm.

The boy started crying even more loudly. Little Li used disinfectant-covered cotton to swab the injection point, and said, "I'm sorry, I will have to try injecting the needle again, because it didn't work last time. Please help hold on tighter to your son."

"Go call your head nurse and have her inject the needle instead," said an older male family member of the little boy. Since there weren't enough patient beds, He Fang had arranged for the boy and his entire family of six adults to stay in the emergency department for the time being. They would be given a patient room in the actual pediatrics department itself once a patient left in the morning.

"It's the middle of the night. Where am I supposed to find the head nurse?" Little Li talked back as she disinfected the boy's arm, preparing to inject the needle again to continue the IV drip.

However, perhaps because the nurse had replied with a slight att.i.tude, which made the father feel disrespected, the boy's father roughly pushed Little Li away as she was in the middle of trying to inject the needle.

Little Li was completely unprepared for this unexpected attack. She was instantly pushed down to the ground, and her head hit a medical supply cart on her way down. The emergency department's medical supply carts were all of high quality, having welded iron frames. The supply carts had to be thick and st.u.r.dy because they needed to be able to withstand having medical supplies and equipment on them while often being pushed at high speeds in order to reach patients who required emergency treatment.

*Bam!* Little Li hit her head against a sharp corner on the medical supply cart, which caused bleeding on her head. She also felt dizzy and saw nothing but stars. She also tasted blood in her mouth. The medicine and equipment on the supply cart were also knocked onto the ground.

Since it was late at night and everything was quiet, the sound of everything being knocked onto the ground seemed especially noisy. Zhang Fan and the veteran nurse who was in another patient's room together both heard the clamor.

"What happened? Did something fall?" Zhang Fan asked the veteran nurse.

At this moment, they heard an angry voice coming from the emergency department room. "Stop pretending! Hurry and get up!"

"This is bad!" The veteran nurse hurriedly ran towards the emergency department room. Zhang Fan ran right after her.

The moment that they arrived, they saw the nurse Little Li collapsed on the ground, with her head bleeding. Zhang Fan immediately kneeled by her side and performed a quick checkup. The injury wasn't too serious, but Little Li had been stunned by the impact!

"How can you just hit her!?" The veteran nurse had a severe expression and tone. Little Li was her student. She felt that Little Li was really nice, obedient, and hardworking.

"What's this about us. .h.i.tting people? She's unskilled at her job, so we lectured her a little, and she lay down and pretended to be dead! She hit herself! Just look at what she did to our little baby!" The young boy's grandma was quite smart, and came up with an excuse to avoid responsibility!

"I didn't!" whispered Little Li to Zhang Fan. Little Li was so aggrieved by the slander that tears started coming out of her eyes. Zhang Fan was currently holding onto her head and wrapping her injury in some gauze.

"What's this about you not hitting yourself! You want to play dead like a dog? I swear I'll hit you in the face!" The child patient's father was a strong man. He had one hand akimbo, and he was pointing at the young nurse with his other hand and cursing her!

"Talk nicely! Just what do you want!" Zhang Fan felt that this was too much, so he said that to the father as he bandaged Little Li's wound. There were no security cameras in the emergency department. There were no witnesses here except for the patient's family members. Calling the police would be useless!

After Zhang Fan said this, the patient's family's tempers receded slightly. However, the veteran nurse looked at her apprentice collapsed on the ground, then glanced over at the patient's family, and couldn't help her anger as she commented, "Shameless!"

Zhang Fan heard a slap as he was still wrapping the young nurse's injury! When he turned around, he saw that the child's father had slapped the old nurse! "That's what you get for f*cking with us!" shouted the father. He was about to hit the old nurse again! Zhang Fan swiftly put down the young nurse, stood up, and grabbed the father's arm.

"Call the police!" Zhang Fan turned around and told the old nurse.

"Sure, call the police! Go ahead, I'm going to make you call the police!" When the muscular father heard how Zhang Fan was saying to call the police, he used his other free hand to punch Zhang Fan directly in the face!

Zhang Fan was stunned by the throbbing sensation on his face! The child's father truly had a violent temper. When he saw how Zhang Fan didn't respond after taking a punch to the face, he thought that Zhang Fan was afraid, and since he had already attacked him, he decided to give him some more punches! He had been really frustrated over the past few days due to his son's condition, and really wanted to vent!

Zhang Fan was simply too surprised to react! The old nurse saw that the situation was worsening, so she tried to drag Zhang Fan away. However, the child's father felt that the doctor and two nurses were either elderly or weak, and quite easy to bully, so he chased after them to hit them even more!

Zhang Fan now hit back. He had gotten angry at the father's ridiculous and unrelenting behavior. Although he wasn't a skilled fighter, he had plenty of strength, and he had an excellent understanding of the human body. He turned around and delivered an accurate and powerful kick right to the father's kneecap. The tremendous force on this important joint instantly knocked over the muscular father, depriving him of the ability to attack others! But since the patient's father already had such a personality, it turned out that his own father was even worse! The child's grandfather saw his son losing, so he picked up a chair and started bas.h.i.+ng Zhang Fan with it!

The grandmother was no weakling, either. She kept screaming while trying to scratch Zhang Fan's face!

There was now too much of a ruckus. The other young nurse not in the room right now had heard the commotion and already called for hospital security. Several hospital security guards arrived.

The security guards pulled apart the people in the fight. The police had arrived as well. But, the police were useless! Although the child's grandparents weren't even injured in the slightest, they were already lying on the ground, pretending to be injured! Well, they would have to take the patient's family to the police station first to record their statements! Zhang Fan was really depressed about everything. Just what was all this!?

Superintendent Ouyang was shocked to hear the news on the next morning! Patients actually dared to hit her doctor and nurses right in the hospital! After Superintendent Ouyang heard the entire story about what happened, she went to Chasu City Communist Party Committee to complain. She wanted the local government leaders to pressure the police.

However, the patient's family members were no nice people. The paternal grandparents were both hospitalized at Chasu City Chinese Medicine Hospital. They loudly proclaimed that the doctor from Chasu City Hospital had beat them up. Zhang Fan swore up and down that the truth was he had only kicked the muscular father once. He hadn't even touched either of the grandparents!

This family had a lot of relatives and friends. A huge gang of people came and shouted about how they would beat up Zhang Fan. This was because the other two hospital staff members involved in this incident were both female nurses, and only Zhang Fan had fought back.

Superintendent Ouyang was infuriated! "I haven't even gone to give them trouble yet, yet they dare to come and stir up trouble here!"

"Go! Arm yourselves with weapons, and properly guard the pediatrics department. If you dare to allow a single member of that patient's family or their friends to enter the pediatrics department, I'll have you fired!" Superintendent Ouyang issued such a command to the director of hospital security.

"What if they dare to attack us?"

"They dare to attack you? What, are all of your security guards' hands tied or something? I'll also contact the police station right now for additional backup."

Actually, the patient's family wasn't here to start yet another fight. They just felt that they should stir this up into a big incident and pressure the hospital into compromising with them and paying them compensation. However, they had overthought things.

Superintendent Ouyang had quite a hard-nosed personality to begin with. Not to mention, this incident wasn't the hospital's fault at all. Compromise would be impossible for someone like her.

This was the year 2010. Security cameras and other types of electronic surveillance weren't commonplace yet. This made it difficult for the police to gather any concrete evidence. It was a he said, she said situation. The patient's family wanted to discuss things with the hospital's leader. However, Superintendent Ouyang directly refused. As was typical for Chinese police, they just wanted the trouble to go away without actually solving the problem at hand. They declared that both sides would simply be responsible for their own medical fees. If the parties were dissatisfied with this, they could take it to court.

"If they dare to sue us, let them try! Tell the patient's family that if they dare to hara.s.s our doctors or nurses, I'll never let them go!" Superintendent Ouyang declared her position quite clearly to the hospital administration director.

Although she was quite dissatisfied with the police's verdict, there wasn't anything else that she could do. The police couldn't do anything to the patient's family, as the elderly and the very young were involved. The police were afraid of losing reputation and face.

Superintendent Ouyang gave the injured nurse Little Li a month of vacation. Chasu City Hospital would pay for her medical bills related to this incident.

Zhang Fan was also given a week's worth of vacation. This was because Superintendent Ouyang was worried that the patient's family would try and take revenge on Zhang Fan for this incident.

Zhang Fan was in a really bad mood! Although he hadn't been injured by the patient's family, he was still in a bad mood. He was shocked by how terrible some people could be! He really couldn't continue in pediatrics anymore. Superintendent Ouyang told Zhang Fan, "Go and have a good rest. There's no need for you to go through the pediatrics department anymore. After your week's vacation, go rotate to another department instead. Don't dwell too long on this incident. This is just how patients can be sometimes. You'll meet people like them sooner or later! Think of this as a trial!"

It was as if Zhang Fan was the one in the wrong as he needed to hide from others!
