My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Chapter 903: Chapter 359: Well Said, a Weighty Topic

“How do you speak like that, child? I’m your uncle, I watched you grow up. Now that you’ve grown wings, you don’t recognize your elders, is that it?” the uncle questioned him angrily.

Before Zhou Can could retort, his aunt’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Xiao Can, your uncle doted on you so much when you were little. Now that he’s asking for such a small favor, why oppose him? Just agree to your uncle’s request!”

The aunt also stepped in to plead.

The aunt’s weight was much heavier than the uncle’s, after all, she was blood-related to Zhou Can, and was his father’s own sister.

“Aunt, I can’t help you with this. If your family really has financial difficulties, I have no problem directly supporting you with some money. Now that your family is not lacking in food and clothing, wanting to use my girlfriend to make money for your own selfish desires is not open for discussion.”

After speaking, Zhou Can decisively hung up the phone.

Some elders have poor character, low quality, and even lack respect for their age. They view issues and think about things from their own benefit perspective. They stubbornly believe they’re not wrong.

For such selfish and self-centered elders, Zhou Can wouldn’t foolishly go along with them.

When it’s time to turn against them, you should.

Excessive kindness makes people think you’re weak. When there’s a need to have a temper, you must have it. Only in this way can kindness be sharp.

“Did you really cut ties with your uncle’s family?” Su Qianqian looked at her boyfriend’s assertive response to the uncle’s family’s unreasonable demand, feeling moved yet a bit worried.

“What else? There’s nothing to talk about with people like them.”

Zhou Can looked indifferent.

“Thank you! Thank you, my dear!”

Su Qianqian, ignoring the bustling clinic hall, fell into Zhou Can’s arms.

Women and men actually have different needs in terms of emotional aspects.

Women are inherently lacking in a sense of security and have a hero complex. So, when a man protects and defends them assertively, it easily earns their favor.

Zhou Can, to prevent her from being wronged, directly turned against his uncle’s family. This protective behavior made Su Qianqian feel unprecedented sweetness and happiness.

About seven or eight minutes later, Zhou Can’s phone rang again.

This time it was Mr. Zhou calling.

Father and son usually had little communication, and Zhou Can generally called his mom or sent WeChat messages.

Needless to say, nine out of ten times the aunt ran to Mr. Zhou to tattletale on him.

“You brat, I heard you blew off your uncle’s family?”

“They wanted to make money again by buying a bunch of hats, clothes, and shoes for my girlfriend to sign. If I don’t blow them off, I would lose my girlfriend.”

Zhou Can used to be very afraid of his father. Now with strong capabilities, coupled with five years of university and two years of residency, he was always exploring outside alone, long ago having learned independence.

At this moment, he was surprised to find that he wasn’t afraid at all facing his father’s questioning.

Instead, he felt very calm inside.

Perhaps this is maturity!

“I called for no other reason but to tell you, you did well! If their family makes excessive demands on Qianqian again in the future, blow them off, protect your woman, that’s what we Zhou family men should do.”

Mr. Zhou actually didn’t scold Zhou Can.

Instead, he supported his son’s approach.

This left Zhou Can somewhat stunned.

He couldn’t believe these words came from that stern father.

“Your mom prepared some things for you to take back to the provincial city, remember to pick them up before you leave.”

After Mr. Zhou finished speaking, without giving Zhou Can a chance to talk, he hung up the phone directly.

Su Qianqian leaned on Zhou Can’s shoulder, and she heard the father-son conversation clearly.

“Uncle isn’t as stern as you say! He’s obviously a loving and reasonable father!”

She happily laughed as she spoke.

“I don’t know why my dad was in such a good mood today! But my aunt’s family really did overdo it.” With his father’s support, Zhou Can was in a great mood and felt more confident.

In life, more than ninety percent of people can be offended.

Zhou Can had no demands with his aunt’s family, so rejecting their unreasonable request put no pressure on him.

…

“Ah Can, Ah Can!”

His cousin stood at a distance, waving at him.

It seemed the results of the uncle’s examination were out.

“Uncle’s alright, isn’t he?” Zhou Can walked over with Su Qianqian.

“After looking at the results, Director Wang suggested we transfer to a major hospital in the provincial city for treatment. He said my father’s condition doesn’t look optimistic, and if not effectively treated promptly, the prognosis will be very poor.”

The cousin’s tone was heavy, his brows tightly furrowed.

Their family’s conditions were much better than an average family’s; his uncle could afford a Toyota Prado, clearly showing their economic situation wasn’t poor. But every family has its own difficult concerns.

As his uncle aged, his income was less than before each year.

Although his cousin did well enough, now serving as a deputy section-level cadre, he was still between being insufficient and having a little extra.

The family burden gradually fell on him, and his pressure was indeed not small.

“The medical technology in the provincial city is better, transferring there for treatment is a good choice. I’ll ask Director Wang, see where exactly uncle’s heart problem is.”

Zhou Can himself was a doctor, understanding the high mortality rate of heart disease.

The county’s medical conditions are limited, and treating severe heart disease in the county basically means conservative treatment. Frankly, it’s leaving it to fate, no different from waiting for death.
