“What do you mean? Can you just tell me whether my daughter can be treated or not? Hurry and say it. When you tell me all this, aren’t you only requesting money? Say it! I will pay whatever the price, as long as my daughter can be healed!” Mother Zhou had apparently lost her mind and her emotions had become agitated.
“Miss, we’re not talking about this. This isn’t a problem about money, but this surgery has a risk…” explained the doctor.
“What is the risk?” Mother Zhou asked urgently, “How much money would it take to have no risk?”
When Yang Ming heard it, he found it really unbearable. He couldn’t help but interrupt her words. “Auntie! Can you wake up? Do you think that if you have money, things will go smoothly? Can you listen to the doctor first?”
After being shouted at by Yang Ming, Mother Zhou regained her consciousness. She was a little embarrassed about her behavior. “Sorry, doctor. I was being impulsive. Can you please continue?”
The doctor nodded. Because he saw different kinds of family members every day, he didn’t care. Seeing that Mother Zhou’s mood was stable, he continued, “Because the injured person’s bullet position is special, we can’t guarantee the bullet’s removal without hurting the cranial nerve. Therefore, this operation is very risky. We need the signature from a family member to perform this operation.”
” Ah !” Mother Zhou said, “What if it damages the nerves?”
“This is hard to say. The nerves in the brain are very mysterious. Each one has its own different function. If a nerve is damaged, there may be quadriplegia or blindness, facial paralysis, unclear speech and more likely to affect intelligence.” The doctor explained.
“Is there any other way?” Mother Zhou asked quickly.
“Even the best brain doctor in the country, Professor Zhong Hanlin, can’t do this without any risk involved…” The doctor said with some difficulty.
“Then if I invite him, is it possible to reduce the risk?” Mother Zhou said quickly.
“Yes, but as soon as possible. If you can invite Mr. Zhong, it’s naturally good! But I’m afraid that the situation of the patient is unstable. She can’t hold out much longer.” The doctor said.
“Okay, okay! I know. No matter how much money, I will invite Dr. Zhong Hanlin.” Mother Zhou said immediately.
“However, I still have to say in advance that Teacher Zhong is very busy. Now he’s in Beijing. Money isn’t the thing that can hire him. Many wealthy businessmen wanted to hire Teacher Zhong but they couldn’t.” The doctor reminded politely.
” Ah ! What should I do?” Mother Zhou had a lot of money. But after listening to the doctor, she didn’t know what to do. “Are you familiar with Dr. Zhong? Can you help me to contact him?”
“I know Teacher Zhong, but Teacher Zhong doesn’t know me!” The doctor ridiculed himself, “I can’t do anything about it. But I heard that Professor Liu Weishan of Song Jiang Industry University and Professor Zhong Hanlin are close friends. Their relationship is very good. When Mr. Zhong came to Song Jiang last time, he was accompanied by Professor Liu. If you have a wide network in Song Jiang, you can try to contact Professor Liu Weishan to see if he can help you…”
What?! Yang Ming was stunned. What a coincidence! Liu Weishan, he is my godfather!
“Then I don’t know him either…” Mother Zhou’s business was in Donghai. In Song Jiang, besides knowing Wang Xifan, such a relatively heavyweight figure, she didn’t know anyone else!
“Doctor, auntie, please wait a moment. I have something to check on.” When Yang Ming heard that his godfather actually knew Zhong Hanlin, he didn’t dare to delay. He immediately wanted to call to confirm it.
“If you have something to do, just go. Don’t delay me!” It was worrisome enough for Mother Zhou hearing about her daughter. Now, she was troubled with inviting Dr. Zhong Hanlin. Yang Ming was still messing up (she thought that Yang Ming was messing up), so she said with impatience, “The doctors are trying to treat Jiajia. What is the use of waiting for you?”
“I will call my godfather to see if there is a way!” At this moment, Yang Ming didn’t bother about Mother Zhou.
“Who is your godfather?” asked Mother Zhou.
Yang Ming waved his hand and gestured that he would say it later because the phone call was already connected.
“Godfather, this is Yang Ming.” Yang Ming said on the phone.
“Yang Ming, why are you looking for godfather? It’s almost Chinese New Year. Why aren’t you visiting godfather?” Liu Weishan’s forthright laughter came over the phone.
“Godfather, I am looking for you because there is a very important thing to ask you.” Yang Ming spoke straight to the point because Zhou Jiajia’s things couldn’t be delayed.
“What’s the matter? Tell me!” Liu Weishan was serious too when he heard something was serious.
“Godfather, do you know Dr. Zhong Hanlin?” asked Yang Ming.
“Hanlin, I know him. What happened? Why do you suddenly ask this?” asked Liu Weishan.
“It’s like this. I have a friend. Her head is injured. I want to ask him to operate on her surgery. I heard that Dr. Zhong has a good relationship with you, so I tried to call and ask.” Yang Ming explained.
” Oh , I understand.” Liu Weishan muttered. “I have no problem finding Hanlin, but it’s going to be Chinese New Year now. If it isn’t anything important, I don’t want to trouble him. After all, he’s about my age, too. What is your friend’s relationship with you?”
“Relationship… well, very close.” Yang Ming said, “If I can treat her, I will do it at all cost…”
“Well, I will contact Zhong Hanlin.” Liu Weishan didn’t say much because he already understood that this person was definitely important to Yang Ming.
“Thank you, godfather.” Yang Ming smiled and hung up the phone call.
“My godfather said he would help to contact Dr. Zhong. It shouldn’t be a problem!” Hanging up the phone, Yang Ming told the doctor and Mother Zhou who were both suspicious about it.
“Who is your godfather?” Mother Zhou asked and looked at Yang Ming, baffled.
“My godfather is Liu Weishan!” Yang Ming said, “This is really a coincidence, otherwise, there is really no way to go about it at the moment!”
” Ya , it’s really a coincidence!” The doctor also exclaimed, “Miss, your daughter is really blessed. If Mr. Zhong can to do the surgery himself, then the success rate will increase by 50%!”
“Yang Ming, thanks to your godfather…” Mother Zhou was very grateful at the moment, and for the first time, she was so polite to Yang Ming.
It didn’t take long for Liu Weishan to call back. It turned out that Zhong Hanlin wasn’t in Beijing, but instead, he was preparing to spend the Chinese New Year in his hometown at Amur River. Amur River was a neighboring province of Song Jiang province. They were close to each other. It only took an hour to fly there from Song Jiang
When Zhong Hanlin heard that it was Liu Weishan’s matter, he naturally agreed to it. Besides, he immediately booked a flight ticket that was half an hour later. He thought that he could visit Song Jiang later.
After listening to this news, Yang Ming and Mother Zhou were very happy. The doctor also breathed a sigh of relief. “To tell the truth, if Teacher Zhong didn’t come, we couldn’t guarantee to be able to perform this operation safely!”
“Then we should go to the airport to pick up the doctor now?” Mother Zhou worried about her daughter’s safety. Naturally, she was anxious to pick up the doctor.
“Take our car.” Xia Xue said, “The police car is at the front door. It can reach there faster and save some time.”
Yang Ming thought that, too. He originally wanted to ask the hospital to send an ambulance to pick up the doctor, because this kind of special vehicle would be free from the restrictions of traffic regulations. Of course, the police car was the same, so when Yang Ming heard Xia Xue asked with initiative, he nodded his head gladly.
…
After the investigation by the special task force, it was basically confirmed that Wang Xifan’s confession was true. But the amount of illegal money was still unclear. Wang Xifan was also like a fox. The accounting books only recorded the price and the batch of stock. The price of the shipment wasn’t recorded on it. And the smuggled items varied from cars to electronics parts. They were all scattered. It wasn’t so easy to estimate the price of each batch.
However, after the initial accounting, the number was still almost the same. After all, Wang Xifan didn’t record the smuggling of prohibited items such as drugs. And that money was transferred by Wang Xifan to another place secretly.
However, the question of whether or not Huang Youcai participated in the smuggling had become the focus of the special task force investigation. Xia Xue didn’t see Huang Youcai in the whole incident. Yang Ming saw it, but he didn’t want to say anything more. After all, Huang Youcai, this mad person, was very difficult to entangle. Since Yang Ming had already admitted that he had ruined Huang Youcai’s legs, if Huang Youcai was really caught by the police, it was hard to say that Huang Youcai wouldn’t tell this to them!
Therefore, Yang Ming simply pretended to know nothing. After the case was over, he could personally deal with Huang Youcai.
