-Holy Spirit Hospital, First Floor Lobby-
The entire hospital building has a total of 300 floors
Among them, only the bottom 100 floors are open to the general public.
The top two hundred floors, even if you have money, are not accessible; they are reserved exclusively for the distinguished clients who hold the black gold VIP status of this hospital.
The hierarchy of people has never been as clearly delineated as it is here.
No more pretending, they directly wore the hierarchy on their faces; they were born to serve the privileged class.
The Holy Spirit Hospital had not yet been completed, but it had already siphoned off countless seasoned top doctors
Its medical equipment and medical resources have suddenly become the most powerful in the entire Imperial Star, and even the entire star realm
Combined scores of the last five contestants together don't even reach half of its score!
A tall tree catches the wind; not long after the Holy Spirit Hospital opened for business, it faced considerable protests and criticism from various grassroots organizations
To say they are callous and unfeeling, medical care should not be monopolized, everyone has the right to receive aid.
The hospital's upper management, under pressure, eventually opened the lower 100 floors, finally putting an end to the protests.
The fee standards for the bottom 100 floors are completely incomparable to those for the top 200 floors
But compared to other hospitals, it was enough to make one black out and die on the spot.
Expensive to the point of being reduced to a single word,
That is..
Expensive!
"Damn! That girl really knows how to enjoy life, doesn't she? What's her problem, coming to the Holy Spirit Hospital?"
A boy dressed in baggy harem pants and a flamboyant T-shirt, with a casual and nonchalant demeanor, complained discontentedly
Due to the loud noise, several nurses at the central station couldn't help but glance over at him, their expressions strange.
They had encountered eccentric family members before, but this was the first time they heard someone describe a hospital stay as a blessing.
The boy paid no attention to the scrutinizing gazes around him; instead, he was smugly pleased with himself.
He simply thought it was his own handsomeness that attracted the attention of these nurses in pink skirts
Feeling quite pleased with himself, he put his hands in his pockets and thought he looked really cool.
The pocket of his jacket wasn't empty either; it was bulging, with half of a game console sticking out. Who knew how long he would have to stay here?
He thought, luckily I brought this to pass the time.
The boy was not alone; beside him stood a woman dressed in a white Western-style dress.
Compared to the boys' sloppiness, the woman's attire was noticeably more formal.
Hair neatly coiled, meticulously combed,
Even with the most expensive skincare products, humans cannot defy time; the years have still left their marks on her face
In her brows and eyes, one could vaguely see the radiance of her youth, but the faint crow's feet at the corners of her eyes declared that she was no longer young.
She is now the mother of four children.
Perhaps, it could also be said to be five.
However, the fifth child that prompted her to come to the hospital today had long been proven to have no blood relation to her.
When she first learned the truth, her heart was in agony. Both the palm and the back of her hand were flesh; she couldn't bear to part with either.
But as time goes by, the love humans have for their own flesh and blood will surpass the feelings cultivated over time
Moreover, the better this misguided affection was, the more it pained her, as scenes from the past resurfaced one by one, constantly reminding her of just how foolish she had been.
Rooted in her genetic bloodline, something surged, and she finally became indifferent to it all.
She was also an ordinary mother, unable to resist her instincts.
Someone called to say that "her daughter," Wen Meng, had an accident at school and was taken to the hospital.
The Holy Spirit Hospital..
When the aristocracy falls ill, their first choice is always the Holy Spirit Hospital
Even if they themselves were unable to come, the doctors who made house calls were, without exception, all from the Holy Spirit Hospital.
Holy Spirit Hospital, the only hospital designated for dignitaries and high officials.
However, this only applies to economically affluent families.
To my shame, although the Wen family is still nominally aristocratic and holds noble privileges on the imperial star,
The funds available at home for disposal seem to be quite substantial.
However, when it comes to truly taking charge and managing the accounts, they will find that what they possess is not much at all
The expenses for the entire family had to come from here
The maintenance costs of the property, the daily expenses of the four children, the wages of the servants, cooks, and drivers,
And all the social interactions and obligations, when added together, really aren't a small amount
Let's talk about Old Master Wen. Though he was getting on in years, his enthusiasm remained undiminished, and he always managed to cultivate various expensive hobbies
The other members of the Wen family were no pushovers either, spending money like water
Originally, Wen Xin was quite reserved, but to make it up to her, Wen's mother gave her pocket money that was several times more than that of her other children
With hundreds of thousands in pocket money each month, she went from rags to riches and initially didn't even know how to spend it.
I've never seen so much money in my entire life.
However, humans are highly adaptable creatures. By the second month, Wen Xin was able to spend all of her pocket money quite well.
And, eagerly anticipate the arrival of the next month.
Only spending money without good management will eventually lead to exhausting all resources.
During the months when Mr. Wen's interests were at their peak, the Wen family's funds nearly ran dry.
If it weren't for the timely intervention of the young master Wen Yuan, who noticed the signs and suppressed this evil fire,
It is estimated that at that time, the Wen family would be unable to catch their breath and would have to sell off their property to make ends meet.
Be mindful of potential dangers even in times of peace.
The Wen family implemented consumption downgrading, which was reflected in all aspects of their lives.
Including when family members fell ill, the Holy Spirit Hospital was no longer their first choice,
But, this was only the case for the other members of the Wen family.
Master Wen is still the head of the family; he is certainly different, an exception.
To remove a hemorrhoid, he insisted on coming to the Holy Spirit Hospital!
It was the 80th floor.
The higher the floor, the more the hospital values the patient.
The more distinguished the patient's identity.
Mr. Wen had never been to such a high floor before, and he was very excited.
It felt as if I wasn't here for surgery, but rather to attend a banquet.
The chief surgeon was highly skilled; the operation was completed in five minutes, and Mr. Wen could get up and move around freely immediately
A minor hemorrhoid surgery cost 2 million star coins.
Old Master Wen didn't even blink and would tell everyone he met that it was worth it, saying that the high price had its reasons!
The laser scalpel at the Holy Spirit Hospital was praised by him as something miraculous.
An expensive knife really is different; it doesn't hurt at all!
Coincidentally, an old friend was present, and there was the father of the son of a medical equipment supplier on the scene.
The old man fell silent.
He was new to this circle,
Because he was generous and spent money like water,
Old Master Wen had earned a certain level of prestige among this group of old men. While he might not command instant obedience, he certainly had his share of admirers.
And he was a newcomer to the circle, hesitating for a long time, unsure whether he should tell the truth to Old Man Wen, who was enthusiastically praising the laser knife.
The laser knife for hemorrhoid surgery at the Holy Spirit Hospital was procured from his son
It was the most ordinary laser scalpel, the same model used in the neighboring Imperial Star's municipal hospital for commoners..
If you insist on pointing out a difference, it would be that the Holy Spirit Hospital has torn off the label, right?
In the end, he still didn't say anything.
Later, he finally understood that Master Wen's emphasis was not on the laser knife
What he wanted to brag about was actually that he went to the 80th floor of the Holy Spirit Hospital for a consultation last time!
80 floors!!
Unfortunately, his skills were not up to par, and he missed the main point.
"Excuse me... how do I get to this place?"
Mrs. Wen opened her star communicator, and the person who informed her of the news also sent her the exact location of Wen Meng.
But what she received was a string of numbers, and when Mrs. Wen arrived at the Holy Spirit Hospital, she didn't know where to go.
Not only did the second son keep complaining beside her, but she herself also had quite a few grievances about it.
The person who informed her did not clearly state her daughter's physical condition
Perhaps it was to consider her emotional state, not wanting to upset her.
