Chapter 574 Xiaohua Wants to Jump Off the Building
On the rooftop, the wind was howling like an angry beast, making everyone's clothes rustle and their hair fly in the wind.
Xiaohua stood on the edge of the rooftop, teetering on the edge of the roof. Every second felt like she was walking on the tightrope of life and death. Her grief-stricken cries were torn apart by the strong wind, but still went straight into everyone's heart, making people feel heartbroken.
At this time, Wang Jianguo was extremely anxious. He stared at Xiaohua with his eyes fixed, and his brain was working rapidly, trying to find a way to rescue her at this critical moment.
Suddenly, he leaned slightly to Zhao Shuzhuo's ear and spoke anxiously in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Brother Shuzhuo, the situation is critical. You should calm her down first, talk to her more, distract her, and don't let her think of desperate ways again."
"I'll go find out what's going on. We'll work on both fronts and bring her back from the brink of death."
There was determination and trust in his eyes, as if he was entrusting the most important mission to Zhao Shuzhuo at this critical moment.
Zhao Shuzhuo felt the weight of Wang Jianguo's words and nodded heavily. At that moment, he straightened his back, as if he was given a heavy burden. He took a deep breath and walked forward steadily.
He tried to put on the most gentle and friendly smile on his face, trying to use warmth to dispel the haze in Xiaohua's heart, and said:
"Xiaohua, don't be sad. Let's talk slowly. If your brother knew what you are like now, he would definitely be very distressed. Can you tell me about the past between you and your brother?"
His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, carefully conveying his care to Xiaohua in the strong wind. Every word was full of sincerity, hoping to hold Xiaohua back and prevent her from falling into the abyss.
At the same time, Wang Jianguo turned around and walked quickly towards the hospital director. The strong wind tried to hinder his steps, but was broken one by one by his firm steps.
He came to the director, bowed slightly to show respect, then looked directly into the director's eyes sincerely and said eagerly:
"Hello, comrade! I know the situation is extremely urgent and we all want to save Xiaohua. In order to help her more effectively, I want to learn more about the nurse's situation and what happened to her family."
"Only by knowing the exact condition of her father and the problem of medical expenses can we find the crux of the problem, take precise measures and truly save her. Please help us, time waits for no one!"
He spoke very quickly, his words filled with concern for Xiaohua and an eagerness to solve the problem. He hoped to obtain key information from the director so as to create more possibilities for saving Xiaohua.
The director looked at Wang Jianguo's anxious and sincere face, nodded slightly, a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes. He was obviously moved by Wang Jianguo's enthusiasm and was ready to start telling him what he knew.
Meanwhile, on the rooftop, Zhao Shuzhuo was still trying to communicate with Xiaohua, trying to get her to give up the idea of committing suicide. Every second depended on the survival of a life, and the tense atmosphere was getting stronger like the gale.
Wang Jianguo walked to the hospital director anxiously, his eyes full of sincerity and eagerness, hoping to obtain key information from the director so as to save Yang Xiaohua, whose life was hanging by a thread.
The director sighed heavily, his face full of helplessness and regret. Facing Wang Jianguo's gaze, he slowly spoke:
"This girl is called Yang Xiaohua. She is a very dedicated nurse in our hospital. Her life story is so pitiful. Ever since she came into this world, fate has been particularly cruel to her."
"Her mother suffered a severe hemorrhage when she gave birth to her. At that time, medical conditions were limited. Although the doctors tried their best to save her, they were ultimately unable to save her mother's life. She left her newborn baby and her family behind."
The director paused, looked into the distance, as if recalling the past with Yang Xiaohua, and then said:
"Luckily, she has an older brother. The two have been dependent on each other since childhood and have a deep bond. When her brother grew up, he was very responsible and dedicated to serving his country. He later joined the army and performed well in the army."
"But who could have imagined that during a difficult mission, in order to protect his comrades and for the benefit of the country and the people, he died heroically and became a martyr we admire."
At this point, the director's voice trembled slightly, tears welled up in his eyes, he suppressed his grief and continued:
"Without her brother, Xiaohua has put all her attention on taking care of her father. Her father has always been in poor health, and his condition has become more serious recently, so he had to be admitted to our hospital."
"Everyone in the hospital sympathizes with Xiaohua's situation. Everyone knows her family's financial situation, so all the expenses for her father's hospitalization have been waived."
"From bed fees, nursing fees, to various examination fees and treatment fees, we waived everything that could be waived, just to help this poor girl reduce her burden."
The director frowned, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and his tone became heavy:
"However, her father's disease is very difficult to treat. It requires a very expensive special medicine, and it is a Western medicine. The domestic production of this medicine is scarce, and most of it has to be imported. The cost is frighteningly high."
"Although our hospital has tried every possible way to apply and coordinate through various channels, it still cannot afford the cost. It's not that the hospital doesn't want to help, it's just that it has no power."
The director sighed deeply again and looked in the direction of Yang Xiaohua, his eyes showing both sympathy and a hint of resentment:
"She...she can't force the hospital like this. Tell me, what kind of thing is this? The hospital has done its best. Everyone is worried about her father's illness."
"She just couldn't think straight and took this extreme approach. If something really happened, how would we live with it?"
Wang Jianguo listened quietly, feeling mixed emotions. On the one hand, he felt deeply saddened by Yang Xiaohua's tragic life experience, and on the other hand, he understood the difficulties of the hospital.
He knew very well that he had to find a way as soon as possible to pull Yang Xiaohua back from the brink of despair, not only to save her life, but also to help her solve the huge dilemma she was facing.
Wang Jianguo had a solemn expression on his face. He nodded continuously as he listened to the hospital director's story. His eyes became deeper as the director spoke, as if in this short period of time, he had followed Yang Xiaohua through her difficult life trajectory.
Every detail and every tragic experience was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard.
After the director finished speaking, Wang Jianguo raised his hand slightly and made a silent gesture towards Zhao Shuzhuo, who was talking quietly with Yang Xiaohua not far away and trying to calm her down.
