Chapter 591: Chapter 583: Unknown Future Ahead Chapter 591: Chapter 583: Unknown Future Ahead And with that, the middle-aged woman kept kowtowing to Director Zhu.
However, this wasn’t a problem that could be solved by kowtowing, nor could it bring back the doctor capable of treating the illness.
According to the schedule, Tang Yuxin should be in the hospital right now.
Even if they didn’t call her, even if Yuxin had already perford dozens of surgeries today, she would still have to take on this one, tired or not.
Because she was a doctor, this was her duty.
But unfortunately, she was not there.
In the entire hospital, no one else knew her techniques, no one else could perform this kind of surgery.
...
So, even if they were to drop dead on their knees here, they would not be able to save the young man’s legs.
“We should prepare for surgery.”
The Director addressed the nurses.
“Saving his life is the priority.”
Only when the life is saved, other matters can be discussed.
If his life ends, nothing else matters.
If a man’s life is lost, no amount of pleading will help.
“Surgery?
What surgery?”
The middle-aged woman clutched Director Zhu’s sleeve tightly, “Does that an that after the surgery, my child will be okay, and his legs will be saved?”
“What legs are you talking about?” Director Zhu was breaking out in a cold sweat.
“We need to save his life first.”
“Save his life?”
The middle-aged woman didn’t catch on at first, then shivered violently.
“No way!” She stood up, lunging at her child’s hospital bed, clutching it tightly, refusing to let anyone take her son away.
If they take him away, he’ll lose his legs.
“Didn’t you say you have great doctors?
Didn’t you say there’s a doctor who can save my son’s legs?
Are you after my son’s legs now or my life?”
The woman pounded her chest, her bloodshot eyes brimming with tears.
A child is part of a mother’s flesh and blood.
If the child hurts, the mother hurts too.
The nurses, too, were on the verge of tears.
But no matter how painful it was, they had to save the patient’s life.
“Madam, we have to perform surgery,” a nurse rushed to hold the middle-aged woman back, “Any further delay and we won’t even be able to save his life, let alone his legs.”
“But you said you have great doctors?”
The middle-aged woman still stubbornly clung to the bed.
She knew very well that if she let go, once her son woke up, his legs would be gone.
That was not a severed toenail or a haircut that would grow back, but a pair of legs.
If he lost those, he wouldn’t even be able to take care of himself.
Her son was only seventeen.
Was he to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair?
She and her child couldn’t bear such consequences.
So this surgery, they couldn’t perform.
They absolutely couldn’t.
“It’s not good, the patient’s blood pressure is dropping,” a nurse exclaid in alarm.
Everyone present knew what dropping blood pressure ant.
The patient’s condition had no ti for delay.
If they wait any longer, there wouldn’t be a life to save, much less legs.
“You said there’s a doctor, let that doctor perform the surgery.”
The middle-aged woman still clung tightly to the bed, not allowing anyone to approach.
“That doctor isn’t in the hospital.
She’s on leave and her return is uncertain,” Director Zhu didn’t want to say this, but he had to.
Tang Yuxin was their hope, and his own hope.
He had gone through considerable effort to hire her, and she had never let him down.
But now, where had she gone?
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman knelt to the ground weakly.
“Is there really no other way?”
She crawled towards Director Zhu.
“You’re the Director, I beg you, save my son.
Could you find that doctor for us?
Please,” she pleaded.
Director Zhu sighed and knelt down, “It pains as much as you.
As physicians, we all wish to save lives.
There’s nothing we can do unless that doctor appears before us.”
The lady licked her dry, cracked lips hoping for so miracle, so possibility.
But unfortunately, as ti passed by, the doctor who could save her son’s legs was nowhere to be found.
When her son was finally taken into the operating room, she clung to the wall and cried out in despair.
“What kind of doctor is she?
She clearly can save lives and yet she chose not to return.
What kind of doctor is she?”
She sobbed, cursed, and resented in her heart.
But what she, or rather, what nobody knew was that the doctor they were looking for laid numbly in a car trunk at that very mont.
In the trunk full of straw, where she couldn’t see the sun nor breathe fresh air, the air was filled with nurous odors.
Sweat, body odor, urine, nstrual blood, all mixed together.
It was unbearably stinky with the occasional sound of soone urinating.
Even worse, so people urinated or defecated right where they were.
It was pitch black inside the trunk.
Several people, all won, lay haphazardly inside.
They were all victims of human trafficking.
They were there for various reasons and ca from various places.
So were here because of their greed, others were deceived, and so were kidnapped.
No matter the reason or their previous status, these trafficked won were treated like animals.
At first, so protested, cried, attempted suicide, and tried to jump out of the car.
But…
Those who protested were beaten.
Those who cried were warned.
Those who wanted to die were still alive.
