Chapter 910 A Prank by God
At first, Shen Zhongting thought that Shen Congyao was just overworked and worried, so he specially invited a private doctor to come and see him.
But Shen Congyao refused at the time.
He said he didn't look well because he hadn't rested well and was also upset about Shen Boyan's situation.
Since Shen Congyao had said so, Shen Zhongting had no choice but to agree.
However, before leaving the country, Shen Zhongting still kept a close eye on things. He instructed the servants at home to pay close attention to Shen Congyao's situation.
Everything had been peaceful until that period when Shen Congyao suddenly lost his appetite and suffered from abdominal pain for a long time.
Apart from all the servants in the Shen family, no one knew about this.
Shen Congyao didn't seem to intend to say anything either.
In the end, it was the servant whom Shen Zhongting had instructed to secretly report Shen Congyao's situation to Shen Zhongting.
Under Shen Zhongting's firm stance, Shen Congyao finally agreed to let the doctor conduct an examination.
No one expected that this examination would reveal such devastating news.
Shen Zhongting didn't believe it at first, because he had always been in good health. Apart from the various discomforts that came with age and the chronic diseases that his peers had, he didn't have any of them.
However, when the examination report showed it was only mid-stage, Shen Zhongting understood.
This wasn't without warning; Shen Congyao deliberately kept it from them.
Perhaps Shen Congyao had already sensed something was wrong with his body when Shen Boyan returned home last time.
Shen Jilan panicked when she heard what Shen Zhong had said.
He has a stereotype about cancer; regardless of whether it is curable or not, as long as it is associated with the word "cancer," he feels that it is incurable.
"Big brother, second brother, you two have to think of something! What if Dad really can't be cured? I..."
I was thinking about losing my father.
Shen Jilan couldn't bring himself to say these words, not even in front of Shen Boyan and Shen Jilan.
Because he simply refused to believe that Shen Congyao was leaving them.
Shen Zhong pressed his shoulder and said, "Don't get excited. None of us want this to be true. I don't want Dad to be one of the other 50% either. But this can't be rushed. Even if treatment is needed, it will be done in several stages."
Shen Jilan was naturally excited.
This was like the sky falling down for him, but at this moment, there was nothing he could do.
He wasn't even as useful as the servants in the Shen family.
At least they could cook something nice for Shen Congyao.
"However, the doctor said that in Dad's case, if he completes chemotherapy regularly after the surgery, he should have at least three more years. But a more detailed examination is needed to determine the specifics."
Shen Boyan asked, "When is the next checkup?"
"I've made an appointment with the doctor, I'll go next Monday."
"A doctor from the capital?"
Shen Zhongting nodded, "Right now, only doctors in Beijing can provide those data. After all, Beijing's medical care is among the best in the country."
“No.” Shen Boyan immediately rejected Shen Zhongting’s suggestion.
Shen Zhong was taken aback, unsure of what he meant. "You mean the doctor isn't good enough?"
"Um."
“I understand your concerns. Doctors in China tend to opt for conservative treatments, which may result in missing many opportunities. But as things stand, it seems that Dad is indeed more suited to treatment in Beijing.”
Shen Boyan frowned, about to say something, when he heard Shen Zhong ask, "Are you asking me if foreign doctors are any good?"
Shen Boyan remained silent instead of answering.
Shen Zhongting sighed and said, "I thought the same as you at first, so after learning about Dad's condition, I consulted the most authoritative experts there. Their opinion was that the treatment plans in China and abroad are completely different models, and the medical environment abroad itself has problems. Even if you want to get treatment, you still have to wait."
“If Dad’s condition is really critical, they still recommend that we seek treatment in China to avoid missing the best treatment period.”
These words were spoken by an expert whom Shen Zhong could consider a friend.
If he really wasn't thinking about Shen Congyao and Shen Zhongting, he definitely wouldn't have said those things to him.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jilan became anxious again, "What should we do then? What if it can't be cured in China either? Where else can we go?"
“I think we should trust the domestic teams. After all, there have been cases of cancer being cured. I’ve also heard that the medical team under S&C has developed a technology specifically for treating cancer lesions. If the treatment in Beijing hospitals is not ideal, we can talk to the person in charge of S&C.”
"S&C?" Shen Boyan asked doubtfully, "Is it the S&C that Qin Ce had?"
The last time Shen Boyan heard this name was from Qiao Xing.
It was only after he learned Qin Ce's identity that Qiao Xing revealed that he was the president of S&C.
After hearing this, Shen Zhong realized that the person in charge of S&C was Qin Ce, and Qiao Xing was his wife, while Shen Boyan had feelings for Qiao Xing...
He looked at Shen Boyan and found that his expression was calm and he was not affected by his words at all.
Fearing that he might overthink things, Shen Zhongting said to him, "Boyan, don't worry, I'll take care of this. Although that medical team is under S&C, each of them is a top figure in the medical industry. Even if we can't gather the whole team, hiring just one of them might be enough to effectively control Dad's condition."
Shen Boyan never expected that even after coming to the capital, he would still be unable to shake off everything related to Qin Ce.
He didn't know whether to call it a cruel joke by God or a twist of fate between him and Qin Ce.
If it's the latter, then he might as well pretend he never knew Qin Ce.
Recalling what had happened before, Shen Boyan said to Shen Zhongting, "If the doctors abroad aren't up to par, we should place more hope in the hospitals in Beijing. The chances with S&C are slim; whether they're even willing to go there is another matter."
Shen Zhongting said this because he considered it his last resort.
Moreover, given his understanding of S&C and Qin Ce, he knew that if they were able to develop this project, they must have been absolutely certain of its success.
This technology has been known to the outside world since last year, but the team has been working on improving it out of concern for potential risks.
Until this year, the team developed a drug that can treat patients simultaneously with the technology, and they also completed clinical trials, releasing the real news to the public.
However, this technology is unprecedented nationwide, and many people are still worried about the great risks involved, so they have never dared to try it.
If it doesn't come to the final step, Shen Zhongting doesn't want to bear the consequences, the outcome of which no one knows whether it will be good or bad.
