Growing up in an orphanage since he was a child, Tao Mu, who had suffered so much, never thought that his life was actually a result of picking up the wrong script.
Eighteen years ago, two ch...
"Don't be anxious. Just tell me what's going on." Tao Mu frowned and comforted him patiently.
Ronaldinho on the other end of the phone was completely confused. A grown man squatted in the hospital corridor and cried with snot bubbling up his nose: "Gou Ge had an accident while hanging on the wire and broke his waist. The doctor said he had to have surgery immediately. But Yu Mei, that bitch, actually ran away with the money... Now the hospital has no money to do the surgery, and Gou Ge's mother is so anxious that she is sick... Tao Mu, what can I do..."
Da Luo was crying on the phone, his words were unclear and disjointed. Tao Mu listened for a long time, constantly interrupting Da Luo's crying to get to the point, and it took more than half an hour to finally figure it out.
——Similar to Tao Mu’s memory from his previous life, Gou Rixin really got into trouble while hanging on the wire. He fell from a height of more than six meters and broke his waist. Because the injured area was too close to the lumbar spine, the doctor said that even if a general operation was completed successfully, there was a high possibility of resulting in high-level paraplegia. Unless it is a particularly complicated operation, if the recovery after the operation is good, there is a possibility of becoming a normal person. However, the initial surgical fee for this type of surgery is more than 500,000 yuan, plus various postoperative rehabilitation treatments, and the conservative estimate is around 1.2 million yuan.
Because Tao Mu had bought accident insurance for Gou Rixin before, he could get a compensation of one million. In addition, Gou Rixin had saved hundreds of thousands of yuan over the years as a martial arts leader, so he had enough money for medical treatment. Daluo and his brothers were very grateful. Hurry up and call Gou Rixin’s home. Gou Rixin only had one mother. As soon as the old lady received the letter, she immediately drove over here. The claims settlement went very smoothly, and everyone felt that there would be no problem.
"That day I accompanied the old lady to the insurance company to process the claim. But Yu Mei insisted on going with us. Ever since Gou Ge got into trouble, this woman has been busy taking care of him. She cleaned his body, fed him, and wiped his body. We all thought she had changed and was really ready to calm down and live a good life with him. We were really happy for him."
"After I got the insurance, I wanted to take the old lady and Yu Mei back to the hospital to pay. But halfway there, I got a call saying that something happened to our crew and they had to ask me to go back. Yu Mei said I would give her the money and she would take the old lady back to the hospital to pay."
At that time, Daluo didn't think about anything else and directly handed the bank card to Yu Mei. As a result, when Yu Mei arrived at the hospital, she put the old lady in the ward and asked her to take care of Gou Rixin while she went to handle the formalities.
The old lady waited in the ward for an entire afternoon, but Yu Mei never came back. Feeling something was wrong, I asked the nurse and found out that Yu Mei had never gone to the payment counter. She actually ran away with the bank card.
The old lady was panicked now. I don’t know how to make phone calls and I don’t know Gou Rixin’s friends. Finally, they had to beg the nurse at the nurse station to find the contact information and make the call. Only then did Da Luo and his gang know that Yu Mei had actually run away with the money: "... Don't you think she is too cruel? Brother Gou has been very good to her for so many years. He was about to get married with her before the accident. How could she be so cruel to do such a thing? She is forcing Brother Gou to death!"
"It's my fault too." Da Luo cried on the phone and slapped himself: "I shouldn't care about the crew's business. This shit is not as important as Gou Ge's business. Tao Mu, what do you think we should do now?"
"It's okay." Tao Mu was troubled by Da Luo's crying. He comforted him and said, "I'll make a call first to see if I can transfer Brother Gou to the hospital in Yanjing. After all, the medical level in Yanjing is definitely much better than that in H Town. Even if you need an operation, it's more likely to be done in Yanjing than in H Town. As for the money, you don't have to worry about it."
Tao Mu asked again: "Have you called the police about Yu Mei's matter?"
"Ah?" Da Luo was stunned for a moment, then said with some embarrassment: "Brother Gou can't give in, right?" His woman took advantage of his illness and ran away with the money. With Gou Rixin's personality, he wouldn't even be able to cover up such an embarrassing thing, let alone ask someone to call the police.
"At this point, who cares if he's embarrassed or not? This is a crime." Tao Mu was so angry that he wanted to crawl over along the telephone line and hit Daluo twice: "In short, call the police first. Wait until the police file a case and catch the man."
After a pause, Tao Mu asked again: "The incident involving Brother Gou's coercion..."
"What?" No one knew what was going on. Tao Mu was obviously much younger than them, but when a bunch of old men heard Tao Mu's instructions, they seemed to have found their backbone immediately. Da Luo was holding the phone and listening attentively. When he saw Tao Mu suddenly stop talking, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Tao Mu, what do you want to ask?"
"Nothing." Tao Mu originally wanted to ask Gou Rixin whether the coercion incident was man-made or accidental. However, considering the intelligence of Daluo and his gang, he probably wouldn't know: "Let's talk about it when we meet."
The most urgent task is to cure Gou Rixin’s illness.
After hanging up the phone, Tao Mu immediately found Yun Xingjian's contact information.
As the director of Yanjing First People's Hospital, Yun Xingjian has a very clear understanding of the internal situation of Yanjing's medical system. For example, for Gou Rixin's surgery, which hospital's relevant department is the most authoritative, which surgeon is most confident, and which attending doctor is best at the rehabilitation phase...
A doctor is like a loving parent, and Gou Rixin is one of Yun Duo's lifesavers. After receiving Tao Mu's call for help, Yun Xingjian immediately prepared the various procedures for transfer to the hospital without saying a word. He also personally called the H Town Hospital to inquire about Gou Rixin's condition and coordinate his transfer to another hospital.
As for Tao Mu, he had to ask for leave from school. He was really worried about Daluo's gang, so he planned to go to H Town in person to handle Gou Rixin's transfer to another hospital, as well as the matter of Yu Mei.
Asking for leave right after the start of the semester will inevitably leave a bad impression on the school. However, Tao Mu had his reasons, and the fact that he founded Feixun.com also earned him a lot of impression points. The school did not make it difficult for me and gave me leave readily.
Tao Mu took a flight that night and arrived at H Town in the early morning of the next day. Qin Miaoru, who had received the news long ago, drove the hotel's van over to pick them up. And send Tao Mu to the hospital as quickly as possible.
Gou Rixin's gang of martial arts brothers were all in the hospital. There was also an old lady in her sixties in the ward. Her hair was completely gray and her eyes were in tears. She was crying so hard that she was almost blinding herself. And I keep blaming myself.
"It's all my fault. I should have gone with that girl. I just needed to look after her..."
Gou Rixin was lying on the hospital bed. He used to be a strong man, but in just a few days he became so thin that he was almost unrecognizable. His face turned blue and he looked very bad. "Mom, don't cry. This is not your fault."
"Mom, I'm upset. Stop crying—"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Qin Miaoru's excited shout: "Tao Mu is here!"
"Tao Mu?"
"Taozi is here, that's great. Tell us quickly, what should we do now?"
"Someone from the hospital came this afternoon and told us that Gou Ge would be transferred to the First People's Hospital of Yanjing. You helped with this, right?"
"We have already reported Yu Mei's case to the police. The police have also opened a case. The person in charge of this case is Officer Yao. He has been promoted. He also said that he will do his best to help us catch Yu Mei."
Tao Mu's arrival made the already chaotic ward even more noisy. The martial arts brothers, led by Daluo, swarmed forward and surrounded Tao Mu, talking so much that Tao Mu had a headache.
He walked to the bed with a frown, greeted Gou Rixin's mother, introduced himself, and then said to Gou Rixin: "Don't worry. I'm here."
Just one sentence made Gou Rixin, a man from Northeast China who was about 1.8 meters tall, cry.
Gou Rixin held Tao Mu's hand tightly. He's been through a lot these days. From being spotted by a big director in Hong Kong and being able to audition for the second male lead, and about to get married to Yu Mei, to breaking his waist in a wire accident and facing high paraplegia for the rest of his life, and his wife, who was almost getting married to him, also ran away with the money. Such ups and downs directly crushed a man who was as strong as a pillar of his ability.
His mother was over sixty years old and she sat in front of the bed crying and blaming herself all day long. His brothers were also worried and tried to raise money everywhere. But there is no savings on hand for this group of martial arts extras who have enough money to eat as much as they want but have no money to afford a bowl of noodles for a meal and have to rely on themselves for support from time to time. After a long time of planning, Qin Miaoru finally helped to raise 300,000 yuan. This is the limit.
Gou Rixin usually acts as the big brother in front of his brothers. He was feeling upset and angry, but he couldn't talk to his brothers about it, so he could only endure it by himself. I'm going crazy these days. Now I meet Tao Mu - although this child is only eighteen years old today, he is almost a generation younger than him. But Gou Rixin felt that Tao Mu could handle things and could understand him.
Tao Mu looked at Gou Rixin, who was crying breathlessly while holding his hand, and stretched out his other hand to pat his shoulder. He didn't say any words of comfort, but simply explained what he had done for half a day: "... I have already contacted Yanjing. Dean Yun Xingjian helped with the procedures and invited the best experts in the country to perform your surgery. The follow-up rehabilitation treatment has also been arranged. When we get there, we will be hospitalized for two days for observation. If there is no problem, we will go directly to the surgery."
"Don't worry about the money. Consider it a loan from me. Don't think too much about it, just focus on getting your body back in shape. When you make money from filming, you can pay me back soon - I'll calculate the bank interest rate for you. It's interest-only, so you don't have to rush to pay me back."
Before she finished speaking, Gou Rixin's mother had already excitedly grabbed Tao Mu's arm and was about to kneel down. Tao Mu grabbed her and said, "Auntie, what are you doing? Brother Gou and I are friends, and this is what we should do. Brother Gou also helped me a lot in the beginning."
"Young man, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, our family would be completely ruined. You said that I only have one son like Xiaoxin in my life. If he... how can I explain to his father?"
Tao Mu himself has no parents, so when he sees other people's parents thinking wholeheartedly about their children, he can relate to them. He quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Auntie. It's okay. When Dean Yun heard about Brother Gou's situation, he immediately called the best expert in the country to perform surgery on Brother Gou. You don't know that Dean Yun's daughter was deceived by bad guys when she came to H Town, and it was Brother Gou who helped rescue her. So Brother Gou is a good person and will be rewarded. He will be fine."
Gou Rixin's mother burst into tears and held Tao Mu's arm tightly. Tao Mu comforted the old lady patiently. Gou Rixin also cried and looked at Tao Mu with tears and snot. Tao Mu took out a tissue and handed it to him with disgust.
Gou Rixin woke up with a loud sniffle, and his emotions finally calmed down: "Tao Mu, thank you. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do."
I saw that Gou Rixin and his mother's emotions had finally stabilized. Tao Mu then went to find Gou Rixin's attending physician, wanting to understand Gou Rixin's condition in full and detail.
The hospital where Gou Rixin is staying is the same hospital that originally admitted Yun Duo and her group of victims. The doctors and nurses here were deeply impressed by Gou Rixin and Tao Mu, and of course they had a very good impression of them. So even if Gou Rixin doesn't have the money for surgery, all the medicines he is taking now are the best. The hospital also wants to maintain Gou Rixin's physical condition and improve the success rate of his surgery in Yanjing.
After Tao Mu learned about Gou Rixin's condition in detail, he went to the local police station to inquire about Yu Mei's situation. The person who received him was Officer Yao, whom he had met once before.
Officer Yao explained to Tao Mu that the police had just filed a case and were investigating the suspect's whereabouts in all aspects. Based on the hospital's surveillance footage, they tracked down Yu Mei and found she got into a taxi. We know the license plate number of the taxi and have sent people to investigate. There is no news yet.
As he was talking, Qin Miaoru and her group of brothers rushed into the police station and said breathlessly: "I, I want to report it! I have a clue!"
