Mother Ke waved her hand again. "Really, no need. Didn't your brother say he's feeling much better since coming to Beijing? Maybe if he just stays in Beijing, his illness will slowly heal on its own."
Song Yun said, "To tell you the truth, he has a tumor in his brain, commonly known as brain cancer. It has entered a rapid growth phase. If it's not surgically removed soon, it may begin to metastasize. Once it metastasizes and spreads, even a god can't save his life."
Ke Hongxing's face showed anxiety. "Is it that serious? Then we need surgery. When can we have the surgery soonest?"
Song Yun said, "It can be done tomorrow. But I need to tell you in advance about the precautions for the craniotomy. You have to shave your head first, then draw a line here." She pointed her finger at Ke Hongqi's pale head, "and then use an electric saw to saw open the skull—"
Ke Hongqi was about to collapse when he heard this, and hurriedly shouted, "I don't want a craniotomy, I don't want one, I, I, I, my head doesn't hurt anymore, seriously, my head doesn't hurt at all now, I don't have brain cancer, I don't need surgery."
Song Yun drew back her hand and gestured above his head, smiling, "Comrade, it's wrong to be afraid of seeing a doctor, and even more so, you can't avoid it out of fear. If you don't get treatment, you'll not only have to endure long-term headaches, but also run the risk of tumor metastasis, and you could die at any time."
Ke Hongqi quickly said, "I'm not avoiding treatment. I'm really not sick. I'm not lying to you. My head doesn't hurt at all. I can be discharged right now."
Song Yun frowned and stared at Ke Hongqi seriously. "If the headache persists, it's impossible for the symptoms to disappear without a reason. It's very likely that something has happened. I suggest you get surgery right away."
Ke Hongqi was terrified and blurted out, "I don't want a craniotomy. I'm not sick. Seriously, I'm not sick at all. I'm very healthy. Just look if you don't believe me."
After Ke Hongqi finished speaking, he stood up from the hospital bed. He no longer looked weak at all. He even jumped a few times in front of Song Yun and Ke Hongxing to show that he was in good health.
Ke Hongxing still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that his pretending to be sick was just a misunderstanding, hoping that his family still treated him as a relative, rather than just a blood bag.
But Ke Hongqi's words completely shattered his last glimmer of hope.
Song Yun glanced at Ke Hongxing and signaled him to calm down.
Ke Hongxing knew clearly that now was not the time to show his hand, and that the matter had to be defined in advance, otherwise everything would be in vain.
Song Yun's face showed a hint of surprise at the right moment, and then she said to Ke Hongqi in disbelief, "You're not saying this on purpose to avoid surgery, are you? That's not right. You really can't put off treatment for this illness any longer. If you delay, you'll really die."
Ke Hongqi was so anxious that he wanted to point at Song Yun and call her a quack, but he didn't dare. Hongxing said that this woman was a regiment leader and the Ke family couldn't afford to offend her.
"I really didn't lie. I'm really not sick."
Ke Hongxing said, "Brother, since we're already in Beijing and admitted to the hospital, we'll just follow the doctor's instructions. Just wait for your treatment. Don't worry about the money. I'll borrow money from the army. No matter what, I'll cure your illness." Then he turned to look at Song Yun, "When can the surgery be performed at the earliest?"
