Chapter 41 You Will Beg Me One Day
"Isn't the surgery tomorrow? Why did you suddenly transfer to another hospital?"
In the doctor's office, An Ning excitedly questioned, "Which hospital would allow a patient to be transferred the day before surgery?"
"Miss An, I understand your feelings very well."
The doctor explained, "The decision to transfer was made by our director after consulting with your mother's surgeon. Our director, considering your mother's condition, recommends transfer to Huaihai Hospital, which is more authoritative for breast cancer treatment."
"Huaihai Hospital?"
An Ning knew that hospital, which was also a very famous hospital in Jinghai. However, this city hospital had a higher level of medical care and was the best hospital in Jinghai.
"Yes, Huaihai Hospital has a relatively higher success rate for surgery," the doctor said. "I suggest you transfer your mother to another hospital as soon as possible. I can help you contact Huaihai Hospital and arrange surgery right away."
The doctor spoke very sincerely, and Li Chunfang's surgery was indeed urgent. The longer it was delayed, the greater the risk of death.
And the success rate is higher, which is what An Ning cares about most.
"Then please contact the hospital immediately." An Ning pleaded anxiously, "My mother's illness can't be delayed any longer."
"Don't worry, I'll call right away," the doctor said. "Go and complete the paperwork."
An Ning took the doctor's prescription and quickly went to complete the transfer procedures. Li Chunfang had just been admitted to the hospital for two days and had to be transferred. She thought her condition had worsened and her face turned pale with fright. She hurriedly asked her what was wrong.
An Ning comforted her while packing her things, "Don't think too much. The doctor said Huaihai Hospital is more reputable and has a higher success rate for the surgery. The hospital has already contacted them for us. We can go there today and have the surgery tomorrow."
When Li Chunfang heard this, she smiled with relief and hurriedly packed up with her.
After completing the formalities, An Ning took Li Chunfang to Huaihai Hospital.
When they were halfway there, they were told that the hospital had no beds available and no time for surgery, so they were asked to go back and wait for news.
The news came like a bolt from the blue.
An Ning had just come out of the municipal hospital, and Huaihai Hospital refused to accept her, so her mind went blank.
The taxi stopped halfway. The sun was shining brightly and it was extremely hot.
An Ning took Li Chunfang out of the car, found a shady place on the side of the road for her to sit down, and then went to make a phone call.
She first called the attending physician at the municipal hospital, but no one answered.
She then called the hospital front desk, but was told that the hospital currently had no beds available, not even a VIP ward, and could not perform surgery.
An Ning stood on the side of the road, under the scorching sun, as if a bucket of water was pouring down on her head, soaking her thoroughly from the inside out.
She stood hesitantly by the roadside and turned to look at Li Chunfang who was sitting quietly by the roadside.
Although she was in good condition these days, she was already skin and bones.
At this moment, she sat there quietly, her slightly sunken eyes looking over calmly, meeting An Ning's eyes, like a thorn piercing An Ning's heart.
No beds, no surgery, this means...waiting to die for a cancer patient.
An Ning hurriedly looked away, squatted on the ground, picked up her phone and checked other hospitals, calling them one by one, but the hospitals seemed to have made an appointment and gave almost the same responses.
An Ning refused to give up and called five or six hospitals. Her heart sank, and her hands grew trembling and colder.
Just as she continued to dial the seventh hospital, a bottle of water was handed to her.
Looking up, I saw a waxy yellow hand with a few brown age spots.
An Ning raised her eyes and met Li Chunfang's slightly smiling gaze.
"Daughter, let's go home."
Her eyes suddenly felt sore, An Ning's nose felt blocked, and the hand holding the phone couldn't help but tremble slightly. A great feeling of powerlessness swept over her.
"Mom knows this disease can't be cured." Li Chunfang smiled and said, "If it can't be cured, then let's not treat it. Let's go home. I can still play with my darling grandson for a year or so."
An Ning's tears fell as she scolded him, "What nonsense are you talking about? There are so many hospitals in Jinghai, there must be a cure."
As she spoke, she was about to continue her call, but tears had already blurred her vision.
Someone suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, "Go home, An Ning. Mom doesn't really want to be treated anymore."
An Ning looked at her with red eyes and heard her say, "At first, Mom had selfish motives. She wanted to survive and see you and Yucan get married. But after I saw Xianxian, I realized I didn't have any unfulfilled wishes. Besides, Mom can't drag you down anymore."
"My daughter, you have done so much to help us settle down. We owe you so much."
Li Chunfang pulled her up from the ground and gently tucked the strands of hair that had fallen on her temples behind her ears. "Mom can't be cured anymore. I want to go back to my own home."
An Ning burst into tears and was choked with sobs, unable to utter a word.
......
"Don't worry, Mrs. Cheng. I've done everything you asked me to do. Regarding this work matter, I'd appreciate if you could put in a few good words for me in front of the dean."
At the entrance of the Municipal Hospital, the attending physician Jiang Wei was talking on the phone with a wry smile on his face as he walked towards his parking space.
"Doctor Jiang!"
Suddenly a voice called him, and Jiang Wei saw who it was and quickly hung up the phone.
An Ning rushed out of the taxi and stopped in front of Jiang Wei. "Doctor Jiang, didn't you say that if my mother was transferred to Huaihai Hospital immediately, she could get surgery right away? Why can't we get into Huaihai Hospital right now?"
Jiang Wei completely changed his previous sincere expression and looked at the woman in front of him with disdain. "I'm just a doctor, not the person in charge of the hospital. You should ask the hospital over there whether Huaihai will accept you or not. What's the point of asking me?"
An Ning couldn't believe such words came from a doctor's mouth. She questioned, "But it was you who suggested the transfer to another hospital? It was you who said you would help connect them!"
"Yes, I only offered to help. It's not up to me to decide whether I can help or not. Besides," Jiang Wei looked An Ning's slender figure from head to toe, and said meaningfully, "If you ask someone for help, you have to show some sincerity. Your family hasn't shown any sign of help, so how can I help?"
An Ning was stunned on the spot. Seeing Jiang Wei about to leave with a chuckle on his face, she hurriedly asked, "Doctor Jiang, my mother is in severe pain right now. Can you prescribe some painkillers for her first?"
"Prescription drugs cannot be prescribed privately." Jiang Wei said this, opened the car door and got in.
"Doctor Jiang!" An Ning leaned against Jiang Wei's car window. "Such a large hospital, is it intentionally trying to embarrass my mother?"
Jiang Wei glanced at her. The woman had a fair and beautiful face, but her appearance was far from that of the top-tier, wealthy Cheng family.
I don’t know how their family offended Mrs. Cheng, causing the director of their hospital to speak out.
After the matter was done, Jiang Wei didn't mind making things clearer. "You should think about whether you have offended some big shot who you can't afford to offend."
After he finished speaking, he started the car and drove away.
An Ning stood there in a daze.
I've offended some big shot who I can't afford to offend.
She suddenly turned around and looked at the towering hospital building.
An idea was about to come out of my mind.
A hospital invested by Lu.
Last time I changed my bed, this time I was transferred to another hospital...
A bone-chilling voice rang out in my ears again, "You will beg me for help one day."
