Chapter 128 Suicide

Lu Zhong was covered in sweat, his collar was soaked, and he was gripping Dr. Chen's arm tightly.

The two ran all the way, their shoes kicking up dust, their footsteps hurried and chaotic.

As soon as Lu Zhong entered the room, he saw Shen Cuifen, Lu Guizhi, and Lu Shuixian inside, and his face immediately fell.

Shen Cuifen stood there indifferently.

When everyone saw the doctor arrive, they quickly made way for Dr. Chen and stepped back against the wall.

Lu Shuixian was still kneeling next to Yang Juanhua, her hands tightly holding her mother's hands.

"Dr. Chen! Please! Save my mother! She can't die! You have to save her!"

Her voice was hoarse, almost a wail.

Dr. Chen was extremely annoyed, and frowned as he took out his stethoscope.

Seeing Lu Shuixian blocking the way, he simply pulled her aside.

"Lu Shuixian, are you out of your mind?! I'm trying to save someone, and you're blocking my way! Are you trying to delay the rescue?!"

Without waiting for her reaction, and without uttering another word, he immediately squatted down, deftly took out his stethoscope, and carefully listened to Yang Juanhua's chest.

Upon hearing that there was still a faint breath, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and began to provide first aid.

In a few swift movements, he tore open Yang Juanhua's coat and unbuttoned the top two buttons.

He then knelt on the ground, clasped his hands together, and began performing CPR.

Upon seeing this action, Lu Shuixian immediately screamed.

"Dr. Chen! What are you doing! My mother is so old, can she withstand this kind of pressure? Are you trying to save her or kill her? If you kill her, can you take responsibility? Tell me! What will you do to make up for my mother's life!"

Dr. Chen was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode, and he pointed at Lu Shuixian and started cursing.

"Lu Shuixian! I'm fucking saving your mother's life right now! Do you know what the golden rescue time is? Not a minute can be wasted! If you keep talking nonsense and interfering with my rescue, believe me, she really will die in front of you! You won't even have time to cry then!"

She works at the hospital and always speaks softly and gently to patients and their families.

Even when faced with unreasonable demands, they can still manage to communicate with patience and temper.

But today's matter involves lives, and the situation is extremely critical. If it were any other family, she would have already walked away.

She had long since seen enough of the depravity of Lu Weidong's family.

Selfish, domineering, unable to distinguish right from wrong, always blaming others, never reflecting on themselves.

But this time, Yang Juanhua's condition was far too serious.

As a doctor, her professional ethics prevented her from standing by and watching someone die.

But Lu Qiming, lying on the bed, added fuel to the fire by calling out weakly.

"Dr. Chen, stop treating her! Let my mother go! Her death is my problem, it has nothing to do with you! You don't need to worry about it! Let her pass away peacefully!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Cuifen's eyes turned cold, and she roughly understood what was going on.

Yang Juanhua's current state is most likely the work of Lu Qiming.

The rope hanging from the roof beam was exactly the same in position, length, and knotting method as it was in my previous life.

However, the incident happened at night, and the surroundings were quiet and deserted.

They weren't discovered until the next morning.

When they found him, he was already stiff, his lips were purple, and the ligature marks on his neck were frighteningly deep.

Fortunately, it was daytime this time, and the sunlight shone directly into the house.

If Lu Shuixian hadn't happened to come back and casually pushed open the door to see that scene, she would have been able to cut the rope and lower the person down in time.

Yang Juanhua probably won't make it through either.

She originally planned to cook, boil some water, and make a bowl of ginger soup to calm Yang Juanhua down.

But then I thought, what if the person doesn't survive and the family loses control of their emotions and tries to blame Dr. Chen?

What wouldn't a family like that do?

They might turn around and accuse Dr. Chen of causing the death due to improper treatment.

Dr. Chen was her benefactor.

She will never forget this kindness.

We must not let good people feel disheartened, nor should we let those who save lives be blamed.

So she decided to stay and watch the whole process with her own eyes.

Even if no one says a word, just being there is the best witness.

Dr. Chen is truly speechless. Is this whole family mentally unstable?

The mother had just been pulled back from the brink of death, but the daughter didn't care about her condition.

Instead, they questioned the doctor's treatment methods.

This is not how family members should react.

They're just like people who love to watch a show and don't mind making things worse!

Fortunately, she did not give up and gritted her teeth to continue performing CPR.

Place your hands on top of each other and press down strictly according to the standard in terms of depth and frequency.

Round after round, she was almost exhausted, but she still refused to stop.

Finally, after the fifth round of chest compressions, Yang Juanhua on the ground finally moved her fingers.

First, his right middle finger twitched slightly, and then his left forearm trembled slightly.

Seeing Yang Juanhua slowly open her eyes, her breathing gradually become steady, and her pupils regain focus.

Dr. Chen then wiped the sweat from his forehead and slowly stood up from the ground.

My legs were numb from kneeling and pressing for so long, and my knees were throbbing with pain.

But she couldn't care less about any of that; she just felt as if a huge weight had finally been lifted from her heart.

Lu Shuixian immediately rushed to the bedside and bent her knees.

With a thud, she knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

"Mom! Why did you do this? Did you even think about us? Why did you try to take your own life? Was life too hard? Or did someone bully you?"

She sobbed, her voice trembling.

"Did someone force you? Tell me! I'll get justice for you! Who! Who made you so desperate!"

As she spoke, her gaze swept sharply towards Shen Cuifen, who was standing in the corner.

The meaning couldn't be clearer: Shen Cuifen must have said something provocative that drove her mother to her death!

Shen Cuifen was about to rush over and teach her a lesson, questioning her about her right to make false accusations.

But just then, Yang Juanhua suddenly sat up, her movements so violent that she almost fell off the bed.

"It was him! It was Lu Qiming! He wanted to kill me! He was the one who hung me up there! He said, 'You're an eyesore while you're alive, it'll be peaceful when you're dead!' He also said... he also said he'd wipe us all out sooner or later!"

Except for Shen Cuifen, who remained unfazed, everyone else was stunned.

Dr. Chen was originally packing his medicine kit, preparing to collect the consultation fee and leave this place of trouble.

How could someone who has been bedridden for decades and needs help even to turn over possibly kill someone with their own hands?

This is even more absurd than listening to a ghost story.

But the atmosphere was strange, and no one could laugh.

Lu Shuixian suddenly came to her senses, and the scene when she first entered the door flashed through her mind.

Yang Juanhua's figure hanging from the roof beam did indeed exude an indescribable strangeness.

The body was positioned low, with a rope hanging from the headboard of an old wooden bed.

Instead of being in the center of the roof beam, the angle and height don't look like what a normal hanging would look like.

If an ordinary person really wanted to commit suicide, why would they choose to hang a rope at such an inconspicuous bedside?

That position is not only difficult to exert force, but it is also very easy to fall off midway.

Moreover, there were almost no signs of struggle at the scene, and even the chairs were not overturned.

What chilled Lu Shuixian even more was Lu Qiming's reaction.

Logically speaking, if a husband discovers his wife has hanged herself, even if he is emotionally detached, his first reaction should be to call for help or rescue her.
