Chapter 174: Chapter 175: Don’t Tear Us Apart (Pleading for Monthly Tickets)

The observation room was dead still, but the addition of Tiantian could be said to have brought a bit more vitality to the hospital.

Everyone liked to tease the child.

Unfortunately, without Chen Cang speaking, Tiantian firmly covered her mouth with her hand and kept silent.

Xu Liang, seeing his daughter was all right now, felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his heart and was filled with relief.

His wife also felt at ease enough to reproach him, looking at Xu Liang, “Let’s see if you take child care seriously from now on!”

Xu Liang, with righteous indignation, picked up his phone, looked at his daughter, and said, “Tiantian, Daddy swears never to play games again, I’ll play with you every day!”

After saying this, he picked up his phone and decisively uninstalled the game.

Chen Cang sighed—the game could be reinstalled if removed, but a lost child could not be brought back.

There had been too many incidents in the emergency room due to men watching children!

Truth be told, men are truly irresponsible with children. Just last year, a little boy ate all of his mother’s lipstick after breaking it.

The child ended up fine, but that man was quite miserable, so they say.

There’s a saying online that a father’s child care at most guarantees the child stays alive, but it seems now this statement is up for debate!

Seeing the child was fine, Chen Cang felt relieved and left the ward.

As soon as he walked out the door, Xu Liang and his wife pulled Chen Cang to the corner of the stairway.

Chen Cang was taken aback—is this an attempted abduction?

But… both of them together?

Considering what the little girl said before, Chen Cang immediately understood —it wasn’t about money or abduction!

It was…

An elopement?!

Xu Liang took out a stack of money from his pocket and tried to stuff it into Chen Cang’s pocket!

Chen Cang quickly stepped back, immediately refusing.

Xu Liang, with a serious and grateful expression, said, “Doctor Chen, this is my way of showing gratitude. You saved my child, I’m endlessly thankful. This is just a small token of appreciation. If you don’t accept it, I really won’t be able to forgive myself!”

The woman by his side also said, “Doctor Chen, you must accept it! You’re our family’s savior, we don’t even know what to say or what you like, so please buy something for yourself.”

Chen Cang sighed, looked at the two, “Actually, this money, if you give it to me, I’d have to go and pay your bills with it. I’m quite busy and don’t have the time to do that, so you’d better keep it.”

“This is a hallway, and people are always coming and going. Let’s not cause a scene that would make things awkward later.”

After Chen Cang finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Leaving the couple to look at each other in bewilderment.

[Ding! The task of Medical Ethics and Professionalism is triggered, refusing to accept the red envelope, earning +1 Skill Point!]

Chen Cang was stunned!

What the heck?

This works too!

He had scored a big win!

For Chen Cang, skill points were far more precious than money.

It seemed that Mr. Room had given him an impressive task—this was a top-tier NPC, a real big shot. Thinking this, Chen Cang felt that he would undoubtedly go further and further on the path of saving lives, offering help, and upholding justice!

Tiantian was supposed to be discharged that day, but she just didn’t want to go. No matter what anyone said, she wanted to stay in the hospital for a few more days. After discussing it, Xu Liang and his wife decided to stay for a few more days, at least for peace of mind.

So, like that, the emergency room saw the addition of a little girl who brought a pink lunchbox every day, and Chen Cang found himself with a little wifey who delivered his meals.

Every day at mealtime, Tiantian would bring over a small Peppa Pig pink lunch box to Chen Cang, urging him to eat.

If Chen Cang wouldn’t eat, she simply wouldn’t leave, so he had no choice but to eat.

Little Tiantian stood there, the picture of domesticity, and once Chen Cang had finished eating, she would grab the lunch box and run off with a smile.

Thus, the emergency room’s routine was brightened by the presence of this little girl, acting like a lubricant to the tension and anxiety, putting more smiles on everyone’s faces.

As soon as Tiantian entered the doctors’ office, everyone would tease, “Chen Cang, your little wifey has brought you lunch!”

Chen Cang gave an embarrassed smile.

But Tiantian, her face beaming with happiness, seemed even more thrilled than if she had eaten honey.

This time, after Chen Cang had finished eating, Tiantian climbed onto a chair nearby, took a tissue from her pocket, and carefully wiped Chen Cang’s mouth. The sight set off a round of playful jeers from everyone!

And she wiped thoroughly, very carefully, once done, Tiantian tilted her head and pointed at her own cheek at Chen Cang.

Chen Cang laughed heartily, picked her up, and planted a kiss on her cheek!

Truth be told, he really had grown to like this little girl, she was so adorable!

Tiantian’s cheeks instantly flushed red.

Seeing Tiantian so endearing, Wang Qian couldn’t hold back either, hurrying over to hug the child, “Tiantian, Uncle wants a kiss too!”

Tiantian’s expression changed, and she took off running!

After bolting out and seeing that no one was chasing her, she circled back, crept stealthily into the room once she saw Wang Qian wasn’t there, grabbed her lunchbox, and scampered away.

This made everyone burst into laughter.

Even the nurses doing the dressings in the emergency room would have to call Tiantian “Chen Cang’s little wifey” instead of her name to get her to obediently show her wound with a smile, just like the lady of the house would.

Two days later, it was time for Tiantian to be discharged. After Xu Liang completed the procedures, he was ready to take Tiantian home.

When Tiantian learned her parents were taking her away, she cried her heart out, refusing to be pulled away, and kept saying, “Mommy, mommy, don’t tear us apart… I will only marry Uncle Chen Cang.”

Her words were heart-wrenching, loaded with deep emotion and affection!

Everyone present didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Xu Liang also gave an embarrassed chuckle and looked at his wife, “Honey, why do I feel like we’ve become the villains from a TV show? Tearing apart true lovers, huh?”

Xu Tiantian stopped crying, nodded, and said, “Exactly… Daddy, can you please not be a bad guy? Don’t tear us apart…”

However, Xu Tiantian’s resistance was futile, and in the end, she was taken away.

Chen Cang watched the little girl leave with a smile, finding her truly adorable!

At that moment, Qin Yue suddenly popped up from behind, “What’s the matter? Can’t bear to let her go?”

Chen Cang instantly smiled, “What’s there to miss?”

Qin Yue laughed, “What’s there to miss? You say it so easily, but she might just be the only girl who’s ever been deeply affectionate towards you in the 27 years you’ve lived. Aren’t you going to cherish that? All… people talk about being naive, but once Tiantian grows up and looks back on this, she’ll surely have regrets!”

Chen Cang scoffed, “Right, how about that boyfriend of yours you went to the movies with? How’s that going?”

Qin Yue turned to glance at Chen Cang, “None of your business!”

After saying that, Qin Yue strode off.

Wang Qian quietly moved closer, letting out a regretful sigh, “Cang Er, your little wifey just left, and you’re already hitting on Qin Yue? That’s heartless, don’t you think? Look at Tiantian, crying her eyes out when leaving, as if it were a life-or-death farewell, such deep and sincere emotions… And look at you… oh… men are all heartbreakers!”

After that, Wang Qian shook his head in disappointment and walked away.

Leaving Chen Cang in a state of confusion.
