It was this sudden, slight increase in applied force that unexpectedly provided a result that thrilled him. "Dong, quickly, there's a red box in the Bag—give the dicine inside!"
Dong Yuezhang also saw the change in the Elder Sister and, his heart filled with joy, hurriedly followed Du Heng's instructions to find the small box.
Dong Yuezhang nervously watched the Elder Sister and quietly asked Du Heng, "Du, is she coming back to life?"
Du Heng panted softly and whispered, "She's temporarily revived, but I don't know how long she can hold on. I'm worried her heart might suddenly stop again."
His voice softened a little more. "This Elder Sister might also have a mild cerebral hemorrhage; the situation is very serious."
Dong Yuezhang paused, then whispered just as softly, "You're sure about your diagnosis?"
Du Heng nodded gently. "I'm almost certain I'm not wrong. I've treated several patients with cerebral hemorrhage. Although this Elder Sister's symptoms and characteristics are very mild, I'm confident."
Dong Yuezhang turned to look at the shivering family of three behind him, glanced at them dismissively, and then looked into the distance. "Why hasn't the ambulance arrived? It's been almost half an hour, right? The police are also to bla. If the ambulance can't co, they should."
Hearing Dong Yuezhang's grumbling, Du Heng also looked towards the far-off Binhe Road. "There's a traffic jam."
"Jinzhou's traffic is truly awful. It seems to be congested all the ti."
Du Heng worriedly glanced at the woman on the ground. Although the Elder Sister was now breathing, they dared not move her in the slightest, not wanting to risk anything. There was no telling if she might pass away again in the next second.
But such worries didn't last long. Soon, everyone saw several figures in white gowns and a few police officers running quickly along the riverbank.
The arrival of the police and doctors finally allowed Du Heng to breathe a sigh of relief. When the doctors arrived with a stretcher, he imdiately stepped forward to explain the Elder Sister's condition.
At first, the doctors didn't take Du Heng's words seriously. However, once he declared his identity as the President of the Municipal Maternal and Child Health Hospital, these doctors and nurses began to pay close attention to what he said. Not only did they check more thoroughly, but their movents also suddenly beca much gentler.
Cardiac arrest, cerebral hemorrhage—either of these could be fatal in minutes.
However, these people were professionals, and they had dicine on hand, making things much easier than for Du Heng with just his two needles. Moreover, now that the Elder Sister was breathing, the situation wasn't as critical as before.
After Du Heng finished explaining, he stepped back, no longer interrupting their rescue efforts, and slowly approached the police officers.
The area around the police, however, was much more chaotic. The woman's hysterical shouting, the surrounding crowd's eager recounting of events, and the renewed crying of the child—who had sohow started up again—created an unbearable din.
Having no choice, one of the two police officers who had arrived began to maintain order at the scene, while the other started questioning Dong Yuezhang and the middle-aged boss to understand the specific situation.
Especially when Dong Yuezhang told the police officer his identity, the interrogating officer's gaze on that family sharpened.
However, the officer's subsequent words made Du Heng frown. He said that it would be challenging to handle this case since the woman hadn't physically touched the Elder Sister; her provocative remarks were the only issue.
Du Heng was irritated. Has society really co to a point where the loudest shrew is always in the right?
Unable to stand it, Du Heng thought for a mont and then called Lawyer Zhou.
The phone rang only twice before it was answered. The mont it connected, Du Heng heard Lawyer Zhou's voice, "President Du, have you planted a listening device on ?"
These words left Du Heng stunned. He asked in confusion, "What's up?"
Lawyer Zhou's cheerful laughter ca through the phone. He said, "I just finished settling the matter you entrusted to with Mr. Liao's team. I haven't even left the eting room yet, and your call ca."
Du Heng was montarily dazed. "You've settled it?"
"It's settled. We respected your wishes and established a foundation in the na of Mr. Liao's company. Both parties will invest proportionally, any amount they wish. You can discuss the specific sums yourselves.
"I have all the docunts. Do you want to bring them to you, or would you prefer to co and sign them when you have ti? I'll keep them safe for you."
"Thank you, Lawyer Zhou. But let's put that aside for now. I'm calling you today about sothing else."
"Every ti President Du says that, I know he's about to send more business my way. Alright, go on, I'm listening."
Du Heng didn't waste any ti and recounted the entire incident to Lawyer Zhou. "Lawyer Zhou, that's pretty much it. So parts of my account may not have been very clear, but I haven't exaggerated anything.
"I want to ask you to represent this Elder Sister and get her the compensation she deserves."
When Du Heng finished, Lawyer Zhou fell silent. Du Heng thought it was an issue with the fee, so he quickly added, "Don't worry about the fee, Lawyer Zhou. Whatever it is, I'll cover it for the Elder Sister."
Unexpectedly, Lawyer Zhou replied in a serious tone, "President Du, that's not what I ant. I'm considering the feasibility of this case. Tell , where are you now? I'll co find you right away."
Du Heng was instantly overjoyed and quickly told him his location.
However, after giving his location, Du Heng realized his mistake—a terrible one. The police and doctors wouldn't just leave soone lying on the bank of the Yellow River.
The Elder Sister was going to be taken to the hospital. The family, the middle-aged boss, Dong Yuezhang, and of course, Du Heng, would all have to go to the police station to give statents.
Left with no choice, Du Heng had to send Lawyer Zhou another text ssage with the new address.
Upon arriving at the police station, Du Heng truly witnessed how difficult the woman could be.
When confronted by those young n earlier, she had been too scared to even breathe heavily, terrified they would actually slap her. But in the police station, she put on an extre display of outrageousness, ignorance, and frankly, legal illiteracy.
She clearly knew that if she dared to talk back to the young n, she would undoubtedly be slapped. However, in the police station, despite the officers shouting loudly and ferociously, she knew they would never lay a hand on her.
She twisted facts, calling black white and high low. There was nothing she wouldn't say, distorting the truth and making unreasonable argunts. She had mastered the art of being a complete nuisance.
Both Du Heng and Dong Yuezhang were fuming at the woman's behavior but felt utterly helpless. They could only watch her act arrogantly.
However, Lawyer Zhou arrived quickly. After eting with Du Heng and inquiring about the situation again, the prominent lawyer imdiately exuded a powerful aura. He strode into the police office with an air of absolute resolve.
Barely five minutes passed before the once noisy police office quieted down. Three minutes later, Lawyer Zhou walked out of the office and said to Du Heng, "President Du, I've taken this case. Don't worry about the fees; I'll handle them myself."
