Chapter 1193: Deep Love, Survival from Desperate Situation
Kou Quan was originally on vacation, but now he was fired directly.
No matter who is behind him, he could have been the director. However, because of a medical accident, he was harassed by the patient's family and embroiled in lawsuits. Now he has even lost his job. This is the dilemma of adding insult to injury.
Even when things are going wrong, he remains calm, gentle and polite, and there is no negative emotion on his face.
Seventeen returned to the village house after seeing the newspaper. After entering the house and greeting her mother, she went straight upstairs to find her brother.
Seventeen knocked on the door gently and called out again, "Brother, I'm back. Are you sleeping?"
Kou Quan lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. To be honest, he didn't know what to do now. The hospital's notice had already come down, and coupled with the exaggerated reports in the newspapers, probably all his colleagues in the hospital were talking about him.
This is nothing, but he feels guilty for causing trouble for the hospital and his family.
After turning twenty-nine, he would be thirty next year, yet at thirty, he was facing unemployment and had to return home to rely on his family. He had lost all dignity. As Zhou Haoyu had said, he was a loser.
When he heard the knock on the door, Kou Quan closed his eyes, sorted out his confused thoughts, sat up, got out of bed, and opened the door.
"Qiqi, you're back so early, is there something wrong?" Kou Quan had a faint smile on his face, his hair was a little messy, and he was wearing home clothes. He was blocking the door and had no intention of inviting Seventeen in.
"Brother, didn't you sleep last night? You look so pale." Seventeen looked at Kou Quan, his tone full of heartache and pity.
Kou Quan smiled and nodded, "How could that be?" He touched his cheek, "Is it that bad? I fell asleep as soon as I touched the pillow last night and slept through the whole night, so how could I look so bad?"
"Brother, if laughing is so difficult for you now, then don't laugh. I can understand the pain in your heart." Seventeen whispered, reaching out to pull his clothes again.
Kou Quan looked at his sister and opened the door. Seventeen walked into the room and sat down at the computer desk.
Even the strongest person couldn't completely ignore the outside voices. While the medical profession wasn't as influential as the business and entertainment industries, he had been highly recognized and respected for many years. Now, he'd hit rock bottom, bearing the pressure of public opinion and facing scrutiny from his girlfriend's family and his own.
Seventeen could understand her brother's suffering to some extent, but she was powerless to do anything.
Kou Quan sat face to face with Seventeen and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything you want to say to me?"
"Brother, no matter what you are like, you are still my brother. In my heart, you are different from Brother Lu Jiang." Seventeen said frankly, "Although I know that you may not care about my feelings, and you care more about the thoughts of Sister Lan'er who will marry you in the future, I still want to tell you that you are a unique and good brother to me!"
Seventeen held his chest and looked at Kou Quan.
Kou Quan smiled and nodded, "I know."
Seventeen and Lan'er are his only sources of pride. Lu Jiang can copy everything about him, except Seventeen and Lan'er, who Lu Jiang is powerless to do anything about. This is undoubtedly part of the reason why Lu Jiang's obsession with Lan'er has deepened.
The person Lu Jiang should thank the most for what he has today is actually his rival Kou Quan. Since childhood, he has regarded Kou Quan as his number one imaginary enemy. Mr. Zhuang Sanye and his wife value him so much that Lu Jiang wants to have everything that Kou Quan has.
Kou Quan felt helpless. The outcome was already decided, so why was Lu Jiang still pressing him? A business elite, a highly regarded dark horse, was targeting a junior doctor. Didn't he think this was truly unequal?
Maybe Lu Jiang really wanted to push him into a desperate situation before he would give up.
Seventeen looked at Kou Quan distressedly and asked in a low voice, "So what are you going to do now? Are you going to resign?"
"Resign? I've already received a notice of dismissal from the hospital." Kou Quan smiled helplessly.
Seventeen was stunned at the moment, "How can the hospital be like this..."
"The medical malpractice case has not yet ended, and the family is still appealing. Now this incident has happened. It is a bit too much for a small person like me to be ruined. The reason given by the hospital is that my personal style needs to be improved." Kou Quan said frankly.
While personal misconduct may affect one individual, it's not a big deal if it affects the entire organization. However, when it affects the entire organization, it's a serious offense. Just like when a civil servant was caught touching a woman's thigh on the subway, his employer dismissed him without a second thought. Poor conduct can mislead the public into believing that a company is full of corrupt individuals.
In a sense, Kou Quan felt that his younger sister was the only one who was willing to be so frank.
He was unwilling to mention his helplessness and embarrassment to anyone, and even more unwilling to be criticized by others. Even if there were people among these people who really cared about him, he still didn't want his name to be mentioned.
"elder brother……"
Seventeen stood up and walked towards Kou Quan, her eyes red. She didn't want to see him so troubled, she felt distressed.
Kou Quan reached out and held Seventeen's hand tightly, without saying a word.
After a long moment, he laughed at himself and said, "Life's journey is really amazing. I'm thirty years old and still have to rely on my parents..."
Their parents, who are not his biological parents yet, have always urged him to be sensible, independent and reasonable. Precocity has basically become his label, but he never expected that the thing he most didn't want to happen would become a reality.
"Brother," Seventeen paused, then suddenly changed his tone and said cheerfully, "Actually, I've wanted you to resign for a long time, but I was afraid you wouldn't agree and would think I was selfish, so I never mentioned it. Now it's perfect, if you resign, my hospital will have someone to take care of it. You know how lazy I am. I don't know medicine, and I don't know anything except being vain. My major is finance, not management, so I had to hire a director from outside to set up the hospital. Now that there's someone ready to be my director, I can rest easy!"
Seventeen wanted to cry again as she spoke, and her eyes turned red from suppressing her emotions. She sniffed, then smiled and spoke again.
"Brother, you won't ignore me, right? Haoyu won't agree to me running out every day. If he knows about my idea of starting a business, it will definitely stop halfway. So, brother, how about you take over the plastic surgery hospital? Whether I'm an investor or a shareholder, you have to help me make the hospital bigger and stronger. Money is not a problem, but you have to help me double the money I invested in you, okay?"
Kou Quan looked at Seventeen and suddenly tears filled his eyes.
To have a sister like this in this world is worth dying for.
"Okay! I will definitely help you earn double your money back." Kou Quan whispered and hugged Seventeen tightly.
Unexpectedly, this little sister who had been protected by me since childhood would actually drag me out of the mud one day. She had grown up and become sensible.
