Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 541

Chapter 541: Chapter 248: Grudges Between Directors, Playing Matchmaker (Part 3)

The woman was in her fifties, wearing relatively heavy makeup, and dressed quite stylishly.

She wasn’t unattractive.

But for a woman at this age, she’s already old, and talk of beauty is essentially nonsense.

"She’s my ex-wife! I’ve heard that I’m sick, and since there’s no one to take care of me, she’s come to take care of me."

Shao Bing looked at his ex-wife with complicated eyes.

"You two chat first."

The woman might have felt a bit embarrassed, so she smiled and nodded at Li Jingsheng, then walked out of the ward.

"Dr. Shao, forgive my candor, but your ex-wife is quite something! Even after the divorce, she knew you were hospitalized and came to visit you first thing to take care of you—she’s a woman with a lot of affection. At this age, if you haven’t remarried and she hasn’t either, why not get back together!"

Li Jingsheng truly felt that such a woman was worth cherishing.

"Sigh! The past is unbearable to look back on. Years ago, I had a major accident at the hospital and had to compensate the patient a large sum of money. To not drag her and the children down, I deliberately picked fights with her and even paid a woman to act as my temporary mistress. I completely broke her heart, and we got divorced. Since I cheated during the marriage, all the family property naturally went to her.

I never explained this to her.

Over the years, my work hasn’t been smooth, and I haven’t made much money running a clinic, barely getting by. Naturally, I didn’t want to add any burden to her.

Besides, she’s so outstanding, she probably found another man a long time ago.

This time, she coming to the hospital to take care of me is indeed quite surprising, but I couldn’t propose remarriage to her just because of this. She would never agree. If she’s already found a man, that would make things even more awkward for me."

Dr. Shao shook his head and sighed as he recounted past events.

Sometimes, people are like this, when going downhill, nothing seems to go their way.

When a career faces a significant problem, often marriage starts showing warning signs too.

Dr. Shao was once a renowned doctor at Qiaobang Hospital, but a major accident directly changed his fate and life.

He wasn’t willing to ask his ex-wife if she had found another man, just because of fragile self-esteem.

He was afraid that after asking his ex-wife, it would be very awkward to learn that she had indeed found another man.

"Are you still owing a large debt now?"

"Owing quite a bit, and I’m always listed as a defaulter!"

Li Jingsheng secretly rejoiced when he heard the other party was deeply in debt.

It’s not schadenfreude.

He’s been there himself and knows well that when in debt, all one thinks about is making money.

But the deeper one falls into such a predicament, the harder it is to extricate oneself.
