“Keep your voices down.
You can’t be loud in here.” A nurse arrived imdiately to intervene.
“Mom, calm down.”
“Shut up.
This is your fault, you little witch!
You caused the death of Zhixin’s dad, and now you’ve co to take Zhixin.
What could I have done to deserve such a cursed daughter?
Such bad karma!” Yang irong was crying and throwing punches at Huo Mian.
Huo Mian herself was morose, and she had no words to offer…
Then, Yang irong suddenly grabbed Huo Mian’s collar and yelled, “Did the Qin family do it?
Huh?
Is this another retaliation because you’re going after their son again?
Tell , tell
now!”
“Mom, calm down.
Mr.
Yao said it was a multi-car pileup, not a targeted accident,” Huo Mian explained.
“I don’t buy it.
I don’t believe it.
It must be you.
It must be that family.
It has to be them!
I’ll kill them!” When she finished, Yang irong ran towards the exit.
“Mom…” Huo Mian held her mother’s hand tightly, sobbing.
Finally, her mother leaned forward and collapsed…
“Mom, stay with .” Huo Mian felt like her brain was going to explode.
Her brother was not out of danger yet, and now her mom had fainted.
Huo Mian had taken two hits and was on the brink of falling apart.
After making arrangents for her mother, Huo Mian pulled herself together and walked towards the top floor of the hospital.
– At the hospital director’s door –
“I want to see the director,” Huo Mian said to the male assistant.
“Do you have an appointnt?”
“No.”
The assistant t Huo Mian last ti so he knew who she was.
He nodded, “Wait here for a second and I’ll speak with him.”
Shortly, the assistant ca out, “You can go in now.”
“Thank you.”
Huo Mian saw the director sitting in his chair when she walked in, presumably writing a report of so sort.
“Director Wu.”
“Oh, you’re here.
Take a seat.” The director wasn’t a stranger to this uniform.
Huo Mian nodded, her eyes red.
She sat down on the chair across from the director.
“You are here for sothing.
Tell .” The director thought she ca with demands because he hadn’t given her a big enough bonus last ti.
Unexpectedly, Huo Mian burst into tears as soon as she started talking, “Director, ple-please save my brother.”
“What’s going on, slow down, take your ti,” he said with a grave tone.
Seeing her like this, Director Wu stopped what he was doing and adjusted his glasses.
“Director, my brother was in a car accident today at school and was sent to our hospital for ergency care.
The lead surgeon said that he suffered severe brain damage.
After the ergency surgery, he’s still not out of danger, so the doctor suggested a second surgery.
But because his injuries are in a crucial part of the brain, the second surgery is extrely risky.
He’s only nineteen and he’s my only brother.
I don’t want to lose him.
Please help .”
“I see.
Don’t worry.
Let
make a phone call and ask.”
Soon after, Director Wu dialed the Neurosurgery Departnt extension and spoke to the doctor there.
After a few minutes, Director Wu hung up the phone and said with a heavy tone, “Huo Mian, your brother’s situation is complicated.
Doctor Liu from the Neurosurgery Departnt told
that he has little confidence in this surgery.
Besides, even if the surgery is successful, there may be side effects.”
“Then what should we do?
What if we don’t do the second surgery?
Would that be better for him?” Huo Mian was worried.
Director Wu shook his head, “Listen to , here is the thing: If we don’t do the second surgery, his life will always be in danger.
If the blood clots in his brain aren’t removed completely, they may lead to a massive hemorrhage in his brain at any ti.
This is very serious.”
“Then what should we do?” Huo Mian was struck dumb.
For the first ti, she felt out of her wits.
“Here, go back and think about it.
Also, talk to your family and consult with them.
But I need to remind you that the second surgery will be very costly.
It will be at least three hundred thousand yuan and the best window to do this surgery is within a week.
Otherwise, the longer we wait, the greater the risks.
As to the current hospitalization costs, you don’t have to worry about that.
I already put in prior notice, so you don’t have to pay the bill right away.
It can wait and be taken care of in the future.
But go and talk to your family about the second surgery.
That is the most important decision to make right now.”
“Thank you, Director.
I will go and think about it.”
Then, Huo Mian stood up muddle-headed… Three hundred thousand yuan, it was a steep price.
Where would she find all that money?
“Wait,” the director called out suddenly.
Huo Mian turned her exhausted head…
“Huo Mian, the guest surgeon that perford the surgery for that senior official, Dr.
Qin, is an old friend of yours, right?” This pivotal question had just then co to Director Wu’s mind.
