Chapter 166 She will never accept moral blackmail.
Du Ruoxia quickly explained what had happened, and the young man breathed a sigh of relief, but still blocked the doorway and refused to leave.
Du Ruoxia looked up at him with a puzzled expression, and the young man smiled sheepishly.
"Sister-in-law, my wife is still in a lot of pain. Why don't you stay with her tonight?"
Du Ruoxia originally thought that only that woman was shameless, but she didn't expect that her husband was the same. It's true that birds of a feather flock together.
"Get out of the way! I'm so sleepy, I need to go back to sleep right now!"
The young man felt a chill when he saw that Du Ruoxia's expression was not good.
Just then, his wife screamed in pain again.
"Dr. Du, my stomach really hurts. Please stay here tonight!"
"Sister-in-law, look, my wife's stomach is still hurting."
The young man looked at her with a troubled expression, still unwilling to give up his previous idea.
“I’ve said it before, this is normal labor pains, and even if I stayed, I wouldn’t be able to help her.”
Du Ruoxia repeated herself again with a serious expression, but the two seemed not to understand and insisted on their own opinions.
The young man blocked the doorway and refused to leave, so Du Ruoxia pushed him forward forcefully in anger.
The young man winced in pain and turned his body slightly to the side, but the blockage was quickly restored.
"Sister-in-law, you're a doctor. No matter what, it would be better if you stayed and kept an eye on things."
"That's for your own good. Staying up late is very harmful to my health. This is the last time I'll say it. I want to go back to sleep now!"
To avoid frightening the pregnant woman, Du Ruoxia kept her voice down when she spoke.
Now she suddenly raised her voice and said in a very firm tone.
The young man was a little hesitant, but when he saw the look his wife gave him, his attitude immediately became firm.
"Sister-in-law, I can't let you go!"
Du Ruoxia clenched her fists so tightly they cracked, her anger already surging, but she still decided to give the other party a chance.
"Staying here all night is having a huge impact on me. If your wife really has an attack tomorrow, my body won't be able to handle it either."
"If you let me go back and rest well now, so I can come back tomorrow refreshed and ready to deliver the baby, wouldn't that be a win-win situation?"
Du Ruoxia reasoned with him and appealed to his emotions, and the young man wavered again. Unexpectedly, at this moment, his wife suddenly screamed.
"Dr. Du, please don't go! Please don't go!"
The young man stood firmly in the doorway once again. Du Ruoxia held back for a long time, but finally her emotions exploded.
"If you dare to stop me again, you're restricting my personal freedom. Do you believe I'll scream for help?"
Du Ruoxia usually looks gentle and mild-mannered, but at this moment her voice is high-pitched and getting louder and louder.
If this continues, the people upstairs and downstairs will definitely hear it.
The young man panicked and quickly begged her to keep her voice down.
"Don't shout. My wife had a hard time giving birth. What's wrong with you staying here with her for one night?"
These words were very impolite, and Du Ruoxia was so angry that she was overcome with rage.
"Help! Help! Someone's trying to kill me!"
Du Ruoxia didn't care about anything else and started shouting at the top of her lungs.
While the young man was in a panic, she took out a spray of anesthetic from her pocket and sprayed it directly onto his face.
The young man was caught off guard and took a deep breath after being startled.
After most of the anesthetic was inhaled, he soon felt dizzy and his body was staggering.
With a slight exertion, Du Ruoxia pushed the person aside.
The young man tried to stop her, but Du Ruoxia kicked him in the knee, causing him to lose his balance and fall to his knees with a thud.
Du Ruoxia pushed him away and went home without looking back.
Du Ruoxia has been a doctor for so many years, and she has encountered medical disputes before.
She'd seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless.
"They haven't even paid the fee yet, and they're already acting like this?"
She doesn't work at the hospital, so who can force her to do that?
The stairwell was dark, so Du Ruoxia took out a flashlight from her spatial storage, lit it up, and went downstairs.
After she got back, she closed the doors and windows, took off her coat, and crawled into bed.
After going out for a while, the blankets are now ice cold.
The hot water bottle had been in the blanket for so long that it gradually got cold.
She shivered after getting into bed, closed her eyes, and quickly fell asleep.
She vaguely heard shouting at the door during the night, but Du Ruoxia clutched the blanket tightly, closed her eyes, and pretended not to hear it.
From now on, even if the King of Heaven himself came at night, he wouldn't be able to disturb her sleep.
She's not a doctor at the clinic, so why should she be forced to treat anyone?
She is now the voice of freedom; she can show herself to anyone if she wants, and no one can force her to show herself to anyone if she doesn't want to!
After what happened last night, Du Ruoxia got up very late this morning.
When she got up, she still felt a headache and her body ached terribly.
Yang Zeyan didn't come back last night. Du Ruoxia casually cooked a bowl of noodles this morning, and her stomach finally felt better after eating it.
Du Ruoxia is now torn between staying at home and waiting or going up the mountain to collect herbs.
Du Ruoxia felt very uncomfortable after what happened last night.
If she continues to stay at home, that bizarre couple will definitely come knocking on her door.
She doesn't want to see them at all right now, and she doesn't want to care about his wife's affairs.
Before she came, people in the family compound always had somewhere to go for childbirth or medical treatment, it was just a bit inconvenient.
Now that she's come with the military, she mainly focuses on quietly manufacturing pharmaceuticals and doesn't want to be disturbed while performing surgeries every day.
After hesitating for a while, Du Ruoxia finally decided to leave.
I was so angry yesterday, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to such extremes.
Du Ruoxia was preparing to go up the mountain to collect herbs when the guard greeted her warmly as she left.
The guards knew she was going up the mountain to collect herbs just by looking at the tools she was carrying.
"Sister-in-law, be careful on the road."
"Sister-in-law, it's dangerous up in the mountains. You'd better be careful this time."
Seeing the smiling faces, Du Ruoxia's mood improved a lot, and she nodded with a smile.
Just as he was about to leave, he thought for a moment and said something else.
"If anyone asks about my whereabouts later, please don't tell them. I want to do my own thing in peace and quiet, so please keep this a secret!"
Du Ruoxia went up the mountain without looking back.
We had a quick lunch on the mountain and didn't come down until it was almost dark.
Du Ruoxia's basket was full of medicinal herbs, and she practically skipped down the mountain.
By the time she returned to the family compound, it was already dark outside.
Just as she was about to go in, the guard quickly stopped her.
"Sister-in-law, your house has been packed with people since noon today."
"Comrade, what do you mean by that?"
Du Ruoxia sensed that the situation was somewhat complicated, and she felt uneasy.
"Liu Haitao has been causing trouble in front of your house. If it weren't for the crowd stopping him, he would have razed your yard to the ground!"
The guard's eyes widened, his expression somewhat exaggerated.
Du Ruoxia frowned unhappily. She had discovered last night that the family was very difficult to communicate with.
She had already been in a bad mood because she had used some tricks to leave yesterday, and she didn't expect them to come looking for trouble again today.
Du Ruoxia just didn't understand. Did the people in the family compound stop seeing doctors and having children before she arrived?
"What exactly happened?"
"Liu Haitao said that you went to help his wife give birth last night but left right away. Later, his wife had a lot of stomach pain, and it's all your fault for not taking good care of her."
The guard only spoke to her a few more times because of Yang Zeyan.
Du Ruoxia's expression wasn't very good, and after a while, she finally asked what was on her mind.
"Before I came, how were babies delivered in the family compound?"
