Lin Dongzhe drove behind the ambulance with Zhuang Tunan in tow. Afraid that Zhuang Tunan would worry, he said, "Brother Tunan, don't worry! Mom will be fine! She's probably just too tired, getting up early and going to bed late every day!"

Zhuang Tunan was probably a little nervous because his body was trembling. Although he had experienced many ups and downs and had been abroad, he still couldn't accept his mother's sudden fainting. Since he broke his leg, one thing after another had happened, which would be hard for anyone to accept, especially since his own legs had not yet recovered.

The car quickly arrived at the hospital. The doctor pushed Huang Ling into the emergency room, and Lin Dongzhe also pushed Tu Nan to the entrance of the emergency room. He asked Zhuang Tu Nan to wait at the door while he went to the hospital payment window to pay the bill.

As luck would have it, when Lin Dongzhe was paying at the window, he saw Wu Xiaojun and Qin Chuan also paying. He asked Wu Xiaojun curiously, "Xiaojun, what are you doing here?"

Wu Xiaojun said, "When we were patrolling Jinhua Road, we saw an old lady fall down and no one was helping her, so the two of us took her to the hospital. What happened to you, Brother Dongzhe?"

"My mom fainted and is in the emergency room! I need to pay her bills!"

"Your mother? Aunt Song?"

"No, Xiaoting's mother!"

"Oh! Aunt Zhuang? Why did she faint?"

"I don't know either. I had just reached the alley entrance when I saw the paramedics pushing her out!"

"Oh, really? Then tell me what you need, and I'll do my best to help you if I can!"

"It's alright, you go ahead and do your thing!"

"That's settled then!"

After paying the fee, Lin Dongzhe returned to the entrance of the emergency room and saw Zhuang Tunan sitting alone by the wall, looking particularly lonely.

Lin Dongzhe walked over to Zhuang Tunan, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Brother, don't worry! Mom will be fine!"

At that moment, a doctor pushed open the door and asked, "Which of you is Huang Ling's family member?"

Zhuang Tunan hurriedly said, "I, I, I'm Huang Ling's son! How is it? How is my mother?"

"Her fainting spell wasn't anything serious; it was just due to overexertion, plus possibly some kind of shock, which caused her to faint!"

Lin Dongzhe smiled and said, "It's good that it's nothing serious. I was really worried that something might have happened to her!"

The doctor adjusted his glasses, looking somewhat preoccupied, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Lin Dongzhe perhaps sensed the doctor's change in attitude and quickly said, "Doctor, is there anything else you want to say?"

The doctor then said, "There's something I'm not sure if I should say!"

"Go ahead and tell me! I'm the patient's son-in-law, and I can make decisions about some things. Just tell me!"

"When we were diagnosing the patient, we discovered a tumor on the patient's kidney!"

Lin Dongzhe smiled and said, "I know that. When my wife had a prenatal checkup, she had an ultrasound with her mother. The doctor suspected it was a cyst, not benign, right?"

"Yes, it might be benign at that time, but over time it can become cancerous!"

"Cancer, cancerous transformation?"

Zhuang Tunan said somewhat nervously, "You said my mother has cancer?"

"This needs to be studied by our oncology specialists before we can say anything. I can only let you know in advance, so please be prepared!"

"Doctor, is there any chance my mother can be cured?"

"It depends on whether it has spread. If it has, then there's nothing we can do. If it hasn't spread, we can just remove the diseased kidney!"

"But doctor, my mother has already had half of one of her lungs removed. If we remove another kidney, will her body be able to handle it?"

"Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be any problem. It depends on the individual's physical condition and adaptability. Most people should be able to endure it, but we can't guarantee anything in case of an accident!"

After hearing the doctor's words, Zhuang Tunan lowered his head and dared not ask any more questions, because the more he asked, the more frightened he became. He was afraid that if he continued to ask, the doctor would say something even more frightening.

At this point, the doctor said, "Okay, can you think about this for a bit and consider it? I'll go see the patient first."

Lin Dongzhe said, "Okay, doctor, you're busy. If the patient needs anything, please let us know!"

"Don't worry about that. Taking care of patients is our duty as doctors. Let's leave it at that for now!"

Lin Dongzhe watched the doctor enter the emergency room, and then looked at Zhuang Tunan, who was now not only crying out loud, but also trembling all over.

Lin Dongzhe comforted Zhuang Tunan, saying, "Brother Tunan, this cancer is something neither of us can prevent. We can only leave it to fate!"

"Tunan, Tunan, how is your mother?"

At this moment, Wu Xiaojun brought Zhuang Chaoying over. When Zhuang Tunan heard Zhuang Chaoying's shout, he quickly looked up and said, "Dad, Dad, you've finally come!"

As Zhuang Chaoying approached Zhuang Tunan, she saw that he was crying and his body was trembling. She asked, "What's wrong, Tunan? What's wrong?"

Zhuang Tunan cried as he said to Zhuang Chaoying, "Dad! Mom has cancer, she has cancer!"

"What? Cancer?"

Zhuang Chaoying stared wide-eyed in disbelief, then squatted down against the wall and said, "How could this be? She was perfectly fine, how could she have cancer?"

Zhuang Tunan seemed unable to control himself, constantly asking Zhuang Chaoying, "What should we do? Dad! What should we do?"

Zhuang Chaoying suddenly stood up again and said, "I'll go ask your uncle. He knows a lot of people; he should know what to do."

After Zhuang Chaoying finished speaking, she went down the corridor to find a telephone.

Wu Xiaojun asked Lin Dongzhe, "Brother Dongzhe, when will my aunt be able to come out?"

"We don't know yet! The doctor just gave us a verbal message and then went back inside!"

"Oh, Uncle Zhuang, whom I met at the door earlier, I brought him here. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I still have some work to finish!"

Lin Dongzhe nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead! I'll keep an eye on things here, you go and get to work!"

Wu Xiaojun looked at the heartbroken Zhuang Tunan again. He didn't know how to comfort Zhuang Tunan, so he just sighed and turned to leave.

Just as Wu Xiaojun had taken a few steps, he saw Wu Jianguo and his wife approaching with Jiang Xiaoyue at the corner of the corridor.

As soon as Wu Xiaojun saw his parents, he rushed over to them and said, "Mom and Dad, what brings you here?"

Wu Jianguo retorted, "Look at you, how can you talk like that? We've been neighbors with the Zhuang family for almost twenty years. If something happens to them, shouldn't we come and check on them?"

"Yes, yes, it's time!"

"Weren't you on patrol? What are you doing here?"

"We encountered an elderly person who had fallen during our patrol. We took them to the hospital for a checkup, and that's how we met them!"

"Oh, if you're busy with work, go ahead and do it. Let's go check on the dealer!"

Wu Jianguo and Zhang Amei then went to Zhuang Tunan to inquire about the situation.

Jiang Xiaoyue looked at Wu Xiaojun affectionately and asked, "How are you? Tired?"

Wu Xiaojun said with a smile, "The people's police serve the people. I've only done some insignificant little things for the masses. What's there to be tired about?"

"Alright! Go to work then! We'll discuss the wedding banquet when you get home for dinner tonight!"

Wu Xiaojun blushed and said, "You really want to marry me?"

"Don't worry, although I, Jiang Xiaoyue, am an orphan, I always keep my word."

"But you aren't, are you?"

“You’re a police officer, I know you have the ability to find out my background. Are you trying to say that I was sent here on a mission? I can tell you right now, Zhuang Zhennan is nothing but a nobody in my eyes!”

"Ah! Why?"

"Because of you! You give me a sense of security and a feeling of home, so I've decided on you for life. If you dare to say no, I'll kill myself at your doorstep tomorrow and make you despised by everyone!"

"Ah! You, no, please don't do this!"
