Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

A middle-aged man with tattoos on his arm cursed fiercely and angrily.

The man next to him kicked the chair leg in frustration: "I should have gone to the city hospital; at least they have more equipment there."

“It’s the same at the city hospitals, and there are even more people there.” The old man diagonally across from me chimed in, sighing, “My nephew was at the No. 1 City Hospital last week, and he spent the whole morning just queuing. The machines broke down twice, but it wasn’t much better than here.”

Chen Dong checked his watch; it was 3:30, only forty minutes had passed.

If what these people are saying is true, then we'll have to wait a while.

Chen Dong frowned slightly, feeling somewhat irritated, and wondered if he should call his father and ask for special treatment.

That might not have a good impact.

In the end, Chen Dong didn't call Chen Jianguo and waited patiently.

If we really can't get a spot this afternoon, Chen Dong will definitely make that call tomorrow.

Time flew by, and it was already 4:20 in the blink of an eye. Almost an hour had passed, and Chen Dong, Chu Mengran, and Chen Guilan were all quite annoyed by the wait.

As for Chu Yu, the person involved, she had long since fallen asleep against the wall, covered with Chen Dong's coat.

At this moment, the door to the CT room opened and closed again.

Finally, a nurse came out and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Chu Yu! Has Chu Yu arrived yet?"

Chu Mengran immediately replied, "Coming, I'm here!"

Then, Chu Mengran quickly nudged her sleeping mother to wake Chu Yu up.

Chu Yu opened her eyes, wiped them, and mumbled sleepily, "Is it my turn?"

"Okay, it's our turn. Mom, get up quickly, let's go get a CT scan."

As she spoke, Chu Mengran helped her mother to her feet.

Chen Dong didn't go with them; instead, Chu Mengran helped Chu Yu into the CT room.

The staff member pointed to the examination bed and said, "Place your hands on either side, palms open, and then lie down."

After saying that, he left and went into the next room.

Immediately afterwards, the isolation door of CT room number 2 began to close.

Inside the window, the doctor began adjusting the machine.

The bulky equipment made a buzzing sound.

Chu Mengran watched as Chu Yu lay down and stood against the wall, waiting.

The CT bed on which Chu Yu was lying slowly moved in, entering the CT machine's ring, and then slowly moved forward to begin the examination.

A few minutes later, the examination was completed, and a voice came from the loudspeaker at the window: "It's all done, the patient can come down now."

"Those who are hospitalized can go directly to their rooms. Those who are not hospitalized can come to pick up their films at 2 PM tomorrow."

Chu Mengran didn't care whether the other person could hear her or not, and simply replied "okay" before leading Chu Yu out of the CT room.

At this time, there were only twenty minutes left before the hospital closed, but there were still quite a few people waiting in the CT room.

These people are all ranked after Chu Yu.

Chu Yu didn't seem to be in good spirits. She touched her neck, as if she hadn't felt well when she fell asleep against the wall.

Chu Yu rubbed her neck and complained, "Just two tests, and such a short time for them, and it's already wasted an entire afternoon. If I'd known it would be this troublesome, I shouldn't have listened to you and gone for these tests."

"My neck is sore from leaning against it just now."

"Mom, these tests are to check if there are any underlying health problems. They are necessary, and we have plenty of money."

"Please don't make me worry about you, okay?"

Chu Mengran said helplessly.

Chu Yu sighed softly, "Alright, alright."

The four then returned to their private ward.

Back in the ward, they chatted for a while. When it was time to eat, Chen Dong went to get food for everyone and came back.

After dinner, Chu Yu glanced at the time and said, "It's already evening, and we've already eaten dinner. Sister Yu, Meng Ran, Dong Zi, you should all go home."

"Come again tomorrow, it's the same. You don't need to keep coming with me. It's not a big problem for me."

Chu Mengran immediately shook her head and refused, saying with great concern, "No, Mom, you're in the hospital, how can we not leave someone to take care of you?"

Chen Dong nodded and smiled, "Yes, Auntie, just let my third aunt go back. Mengran and I will take turns watching over you. That way, it will be more convenient for you if you need water or anything else at night."

Chu Yu was both distressed and happy. She was distressed because it was a small problem, but it was being treated like a serious illness. She was happy because her daughter and son-in-law were very filial to her.

After thinking for several seconds, Chu Yu finally spoke up: "If someone has to take care of you, then let Meng Ran stay. She can sleep in the same bed with me tonight. Dongzi, you and Sister Yu can go back."

Chu Mengran glanced around and found that there were indeed no extra beds, so she looked at Chen Dong and said, "Dongzi, my mother is right. I'll stay. You and Auntie can go back first."

Chen Dong scratched his head, thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and replied, "In that case, alright then, I'll go back with Auntie San first."

"If anything happens, use the landline at the nurses' station to call my mobile phone."

"Yes, I will." Chu Mengran nodded.

Then, Chen Guilan said with a smile, "Chu Yu, you should rest here for the next few days and come back to work when you're better."

"Then Dongzi and I will head back first."

"I understand, thank you, Sister Yu!"

Chu Yu said with great gratitude.

After leaving the hospital, Chen Dong hailed a taxi and got in with his aunt, Chen Guilan, to go home together.

"Sigh, I really don't know what Chu Yu was thinking. She clearly didn't need to work so hard, but she was so busy that she forgot to eat, which caused her to faint from low blood sugar. I wonder if it will cause any other complications later."

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have preferred not to let her be the manager of that branch and to have her stay by my side instead."

In the taxi, Chen Guilan suddenly sighed and said, her words tinged with self-reproach.

Upon hearing this, Chen Dong comforted her, saying, "Third Aunt, you don't need to blame yourself. It's all because I wanted to repay your kindness in promoting me that I worked so hard. But not eating properly is indeed a problem."

"Most of the time, low blood sugar doesn't cause any complications. After your aunt is discharged from the hospital, you can have a good talk with her and have the branch staff keep an eye on her."

"Yes, that makes sense." Chen Guilan thought about it and agreed.

Back in the residential area, Chen Guilan said goodbye to Chen Dong and went back to her building.

Chen Dong, on the other hand, went home.

Upon returning home, he inevitably faced a barrage of questions from his father, Chen Jianguo, and his mother, Li Huazhen.

Chen Dong recounted everything that had happened at the hospital.

Chen Jianguo frowned and said directly, "Since that's the situation at the hospital, I'll make another call tomorrow to avoid having to wait so long for any subsequent tests."
