Mr. Cheng’s most serious problem is his kidneys; other underlying diseases of the elderly are not a big problem.
The examination was completed in just one morning the next day, and the data, along with the data about the patient whose lower body was crushed by the crane, was transmitted back to the company. The bionic kidney replacement surgery could be performed in less than two weeks.
The Cheng family even took a day off today, thinking they would need help with a lot of tests, but they didn't expect there was no place for them at all.
A few people were like sticks stuck in the hospital, annoying and useless.
Instead, I saw Dai Li running in and out, either asking for data or looking at cases, and she was very busy.
When the Cheng family sent Old Man Cheng back to the ward, Dai Li had not finished her work yet and did not come back with them.
Forget about coming back together, I didn't even have the chance to say a word to her.
The Cheng family couldn't get used to Dai Li like this, as if she was more successful than them.
The ward where Mr. Cheng is staying is not in the Nephrology Department, but belongs to a department of the 993 Hospital that is set aside specifically for bionic organs. The patients in the same ward are also waiting for bionic organ replacement surgery.
When they returned today, they saw their roommate in the same ward, the one whose lower body was broken by a crane.
When Cheng's mother saw him for the first time, she was shocked.
This person has nothing below his belly button, and his cross section looks like half a bare ball.
His upper body and arms are very long, so it can be inferred that his height before was definitely not less than 180cm.
This man has a good personality and is a very cheerful and tall man. When he saw them coming back, he immediately greeted Mr. Cheng.
"Did the old man just come back from a checkup?"
"I just finished. The kids have been busy all morning. I don't sleep well, so I might disturb you tonight."
"It's okay, old man. I'm a deep sleeper. I heard you have uremia?"
"I was diagnosed at the end of last year. I didn't take it seriously until it was already in the late stages. The doctor was right. I still need to have regular checkups every year. It's too late when I start to feel unwell."
"Don't worry, old man. Medical technology has advanced. Your kidney disease is very treatable. Not only can others replace hearts and bones, but I can even reattach my legs. In a few months, I'll be able to walk like a normal person."
Including Old Master Cheng, all members of the Cheng family looked at his empty lower body in astonishment.
Cheng Shangyuan: "But where did you get your legs?"
This person not only has no legs, but also no excretion organs, and needs to carry a stool bag in his daily life.
In his condition, he can't even get a prosthetic limb, and he still wants to walk with his legs?
At present, Cheng's family still cannot understand where his leg came from, but after staying in the 993 Hospital for two days, they saw more and more similar outrageous cases.
For example, there was a narcotics officer in the next ward who was brutally tortured by drug dealers and turned into a human pig. Now he has regained his tongue and ears, and his limbs and eyes are also in the recovery period.
I also met Teng Gaofeng and Zhao Junyi who came for a follow-up check-up. Both of them are recovering well and this is their last follow-up check-up.
Hearing that Dai Li was in the hospital, they came over and sat for a while.
Both of their mental outlooks had undergone tremendous changes compared to before.
Teng Gaofeng and his ex-wife have already negotiated the issue of the child, and the child will live with Teng Gaofeng from now on.
With the skills he learned in the army, he found a job as a shooting instructor with a good monthly income. He plans to save some more money and open his own shooting experience center.
He arranged for the child to transfer to another school. Without the pressure of family, the child quickly integrated into the new environment, became much more cheerful, and grew healthier.
Teng Gaofeng feels that his current life is as beautiful as a dream, and every day has a purpose.
As for Zhao Junyi, he opened a private restaurant in partnership with his father. Thanks to his father's five-star chef skills, the restaurant has been attracting customers since its opening. Many celebrities even drove hundreds of miles just to try the food.
Their new life has begun anew. The past sufferings and gloom will become a thing of the past, and their future life will be filled with only bright sunshine.
The two of them were grateful to Dai Li from the bottom of their hearts.
So when they heard that Dai Li's elder was hospitalized, the two of them came without saying a word, bringing a bunch of gifts and fruits.
After arriving, they naturally asked the old man about his health, reassured him that he could not worry about the surgery, and told him about their own situations.
After everyone left, Cheng's mother couldn't help but exclaim in amazement to Cheng's father: "Did that tall guy's entire skin change? I can't tell at all. How amazing is their biomimetic technology?"
Father Cheng: "Didn't you hear the guy next to you say half of his face was missing? Now you can tell the difference between him and the others?"
The couple looked at each other and fell silent, then thought of the drug enforcement police next door.
No one could help shaking their heads when seeing how miserable they were back then, but now they have become decent people.
It doesn’t seem too outrageous that these two people can recover as before.
Cheng Shangyuan asked Dai Li, "Are they the examples you mentioned earlier?"
Dai Li didn't want to respond to his nonsense, and seeing the process, the old man was about to leave.
"Grandpa Cheng, you should have a good rest. If you can hold on for a few more days, we can arrange your surgery next Tuesday."
"Grandpa, don't be in a hurry. Grandpa knows you are very busy. You should go and do your own thing first." After seeing so many examples, Grandpa Cheng now has great confidence in the bionic kidney recommended by Dai Li.
Dai Li basically only took Old Master Cheng seriously, and ignored the other people in the Cheng family.
They were ignored by Dai Li again and could only watch Dai Li leave the ward.
Cheng's mother: "Why is she like this? Doesn't she see us anymore? After all, the child's father and I are the elders."
Old Master Cheng snorted, "I blame you for not treating me as an elder. Do you act like one?"
Cheng's mother said guiltily, "We didn't do anything to her. She ate and drank what she was supposed to. We never let her go hungry."
Old Master Cheng: "She didn't do anything to you, she didn't scold you or hit you."
Knowing that she was not in the right, Cheng's mother finally shut up.
She stopped talking, but her mind was still calculating.
In the evening, when it was just her and Cheng's father, she began to mutter, "I think Dai Li seems to be doing pretty well recently. Do you still remember the constant temperature suit that made Mr. Guan a fortune? It seems that Dai Li was the one who arranged it."
I don’t know what kind of connections Dai Li used to get the agency rights. With the constant temperature suit before and the biomimetic organs now, there may be other projects in the future.
She had believed her poker friends' lies before, thinking that Dai Li and Guan Honghou were having an affair. Later, after making inquiries from many sources, she found out that Guan was always negotiating business with Dai Li.
What we are talking about is the big business of constant temperature clothing.
Guan Honghou's net worth skyrocketed thanks to his constant temperature suit, and the stock market also soared.
I remember that Guan Honghou and Cheng's father had companies of similar size at the beginning, but twenty or thirty years later, the gap between them became increasingly larger.
The couple was extremely jealous, but their relationship with Dai Li was not good. Without Dai Li's introduction, they had no way to get a share of the pie.
Mr. Cheng couldn't bear to hear Mrs. Cheng bring up the past again, which annoyed him again.
He turned his back stiffly and replied, "What does it have to do with us if they make a fortune? Would they ask you to make a fortune with them?"
Mother Cheng pushed Father Cheng on the back and said, "Build good relationships with people. When there's wealth in the future, I'll ask you to share it with me."
Cheng's father turned around and said, "Who are you trying to build a good relationship with? Guan Honghou, will he give you the opportunity to make a fortune? You are so funny."
"Who said Guan Honghou? I was talking about Dai Li."
“…”
"Think about it, Guan Honghou and her are not related at all, and they didn't even know each other before, but she still introduced us. We are at least related to her, so if we treat her a little better and show her more concern, she will give us some face for your father's sake."
Father Cheng thought she was daydreaming. You used to be so cold and indifferent to others, but now you suddenly change your attitude. Can't Dai Li see what you are planning?
Cheng's mother didn't believe it and insisted on giving it a try.
"Go ahead and care if you want." Cheng's father couldn't convince her, so he simply stopped arguing with her, covered his head with the quilt, and left Cheng's mother with his back.
Mother Cheng glared at Father Cheng and said, "I'll go if I want to."
The next day, Cheng's mother was ready to go and was determined to capture Dai Li.
As a result, she didn't see Dai Li in the hospital for three consecutive days.
The patient in the next bed who had lost his lower body had completed the surgery during this period.
Cheng's mother even went to check on the situation in the bed next door and found that the legs he had installed were real, and there was no difference in skin color from his own.
If it weren't for the stitches on his waist, you would have no idea his legs were attached from the back.
After he was pushed out of the operating room, he didn't cry out in pain the whole day, which was completely different from other people who had just undergone surgery.
Cheng's mother heard from the doctor that this was all thanks to something called a physiological analgesic.
And this physiological painkiller was also brought by Dai Li.
Therefore, Cheng's mother became more eager to win over Dai Li.
But her plan was destined to fail.
Dai Li will not come to the hospital in the next few days. There is a pile of work waiting for her to deal with in the company. The most important thing is that she is preparing to make a new invention.
After returning to the company, she immediately called Wu Xuelin to arrange tasks.
Wu Xuelin: "You said you wanted to use a sleep monitor?"
Dai Li: "I've discovered that many veterans who have been discharged due to injuries have psychological trauma. Teng Gaofeng is in the best condition, having no post-traumatic stress disorder from the war. However, some have suffered more pain than him and have endured torture for longer, such as Qu Yan, who is currently receiving treatment at the 993rd Hospital."
Wu Xuelin had also seen Qu Yan's information. He used to be a narcotics enforcement officer who had been investigating drug dealers at the southern border and clearing drugs from the country.
Under his iron-fisted leadership, the area he managed had always been the place with the best drug situation on the border. He also took the lead in destroying several drug-making bases and capturing several drug lords.
The drug dealers naturally hated him to the core. In another fierce firefight, Qu Yan was unfortunately hit in the thigh by the drug dealers and was then taken hostage abroad.
Dai Li and the others had no idea what he had suffered abroad. The information they saw in the files was that Qu Yan was imprisoned in an uninhabited valley abroad and was not found and rescued until two months later by a specially established rescue team.
When he was rescued, he had been tortured into a human pig. Not only did he lose his hands and legs, his eyes were gouged out, his tongue and ears were cut off, and words were carved on his face and body.
The drug dealers took pleasure in his miserable appearance and took out their anger by torturing him.
If he couldn't even commit suicide, he might have chosen to end his life long ago.
Now Qu Yan has completed the bionic organ transplant surgery. After recuperating for a while, his body will be back to normal.
Although his physical injuries will heal one day, the trauma to his heart will never heal.
He has been receiving psychological counseling, but the results have not been ideal. He himself is not very willing to cooperate and is in a negative and pessimistic mood.
The most important thing is that his sleep quality is extremely poor. He will have nightmares as soon as he falls asleep. He dreams that he is abroad and it is like two months of hell.
As a result, he is now afraid to sleep. He doesn’t sleep during the day, and even less at night. He doesn’t even dare to turn off the lights.
Due to his lack of rest and sleep, his wound recovery was not satisfactory.
The doctor had no choice but to add an appropriate amount of sedative to his IV to help him fall asleep.
With the sedatives, Qu Yan was able to fall asleep, but his sleep quality was still poor and he still had nightmares. Besides, he couldn't rely on drugs to fall asleep every time, as all sedatives had side effects.
So Dai Li thought of a sleep device to help people fall asleep.
The sequelae of traumatic stress take time to heal, but before that, patients need good and sufficient sleep. They cannot let their bodies break down before the mental trauma is healed.
Besides, sleep monitors are not only for people with post-traumatic stress disorder, but also for ordinary insomniacs and people who want high-quality sleep.
Take Mr. Cheng for example. He has poor sleep quality and often wakes up at night. It is very difficult for him to fall asleep again after waking up in the middle of the night. When he gets up, he has nothing to do, so he can only wait until dawn.
So she decided to come back and make the sleep monitor first, so that she could mass-produce it later.
Wu Xuelin had no objection to Dai Li's ideas and would cooperate with whatever she asked him to do.
"The other work I have on hand is not urgent, so you can hand it over to them. I will help you make the sleep device first."
The two of them have always been very efficient, and they made the sleep monitor in about four days.
Sister Tu used it when it was still a semi-finished product, and her feedback was that she directly put the sleep monitor away.
Her original words were: "I only had such a high-quality sleep in my life when I was a child."
People who really get enough sleep will wake up the next day feeling as light as a swallow, full of energy, with a better appetite, and a better mood.
After using it for two or three days, not only did Sister Tu’s eye bags and edema disappear, but her skin was no longer dull and became smoother and more translucent.
Sister Tu: "A good night's sleep is better than a cosmetic surgery."
She touched her own smooth, delicate skin, and the more she touched it, the more she couldn't let it go. "Daidai, why didn't you make the sleep machine sooner?"
Dai Li: "You didn't say you needed it. If you had told me earlier, I would have made it for you a long time ago."
Sister Tu regretted it secretly. She was such a fool. Why didn’t she think of it earlier?
Dai Li: "Besides the sleep device, what else do you want?"
Sister Tu pressed her forehead as if in deep thought.
She felt that she needed everything, but when she really tried to think about it, she couldn't remember anything.
"Wait a minute, let me think about it."
"Then take your time to think about it. When you've made up your mind, write it down and I'll look at it when I get back."
"Oh well, go take care of your business first."
After the sleep device was made, Dai Li wanted to send it to Qu Yan and Old Master Cheng first.
It was evening when she arrived at 993, so Qu Yan could have a good sleep tonight.
Dai Li arrived at the hospital on time, but entered the ward at an inappropriate time.
The atmosphere in Qu Yan's ward was extremely low. He and his wife were arguing, or to be more precise, his wife was the only one making the accusation. Qu Yan faced the window without saying a word, not even a single extra expression.
"Isn't it enough that you've given me the cold shoulder for so long? Now that you're well, and our lives are the same as before, why can't you live a good life with me?"
His wife cried and complained, but Qu Yan did not respond from beginning to end.
"Don't be silent. You have to have a reason to divorce me, otherwise I will never agree."
"It's different." Qu Yan finally spoke.
His wife's face was covered in tears. She grabbed his hand and looked at him pleadingly: "But can we live our lives like before and forget everything that happened before? Let's start anew from today. If you cooperate with the doctor's treatment, we will definitely get better. Didn't the doctor say there are cases of recovery? You will definitely be able to return to a normal life!"
Qu Yan felt her tears dripping onto the back of his hand before he finally turned his gaze back to his wife's face.
He reached out to wipe his wife's tears, but found that the more he wiped, the more tears there were.
"I can't go back to a normal life. Every time I close my eyes, I see that scene. The person in it is either you or me. It's more often that I dream it's you."
His wife's pupils suddenly shrank, and she was obviously frightened.
"If you are implicated because of me, what do you want me to do?"
His wife cried and shook her head: "No, they can't get in, and we will catch them all soon."
Qu Yan shook his head gently. "As long as you're still with me, I'll continue to have these dreams all night long. Only when you divorce me and you're absolutely safe will it be a relief for me."
His wife bit her lower lip, her chin trembled, and she shook her head.
"I beg you, can you please help me?" He wanted to laugh, but his laugh sounded like crying.
"I'm not afraid, I really am!"
"But I'm scared." Qu Yan laughed and tears flowed down uncontrollably, mixing with his wife's tears.
"I was really scared, so scared that I didn't dare look at you, I didn't dare see your face too clearly, for fear that your expression of pain in the dream would be too vivid."
Dai Li actually didn't want to disturb others, but Qu Yan and his wife were different. They were both too negative, and letting their pessimism spread would not be good for both of them.
She knocked on the door and the sobbing sound in the ward stopped.
About a minute later, Qu Yan's wife came to open the door.
Qu Yan's wife's eyes were still red, and she was too lazy to cover them up. No matter how hard she tried, others could tell that she had been crying.
She knew Dai Li. Dai Li had come to make a surgical plan for Qu Yan before. She knew that Dai Li was the person in charge of bionic organs.
She forced a smile and welcomed Dai Li into the ward.
"Teacher Dai, what's the matter that brings you here specially?" As far as she knew, Teacher Dai was very busy and would not come to the hospital often. If you wanted to see her, you had to make an appointment in advance.
"Giving you something should save your marriage." Dai Li smiled mysteriously.
Qu Yan's wife was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, she saw Dai Li walk in.
Although Qu Yan was not in the right mood to receive guests, he still cheered himself up and greeted Dai Li.
Dai Li: "Qu Yan, judging from your current self-perception, is sleeping the biggest problem for you?"
Qu Yan nodded and said yes. He had already completed all the repair surgeries on his body and was not feeling any discomfort during the recovery period.
But the mental torture was what caused Qu Yan the most pain, and it almost made him collapse.
Dai Li: "If you no longer have nightmares all night long, and the painful memories of the past no longer torment you in your dreams, will your life be different?"
"Is it possible?" Qu Yan said to himself.
He also wanted to stop having nightmares, but what happened in his dreams was beyond his control.
During the day, he can rely on his strong psychological quality to control himself from thinking about the past and live like a normal person.
In fact, he was extremely afraid in his subconscious mind. When he went to bed at night, the fear in his heart would overcome his willpower and bring him back to the valley outside the country again and again.
Because he was very afraid that his wife would also be retaliated by drug dealers, after worrying about this for a long time, his wife replaced him and became the tortured protagonist in his dreams.
"Try this for you." Dai Li placed the sleep monitor on the small table above Qu Yan's bed.
The sleep monitor made by Dai Li is a set of equipment, including a smart bracelet that monitors heart rate and sleep data, and an electronic sleep mask that can help you sleep.
The smart bracelet has multiple selection modes.
For example, the high-quality sleep mode allows users to sleep all night without dreams.
For example, in the sweet dream mode, users can choose the type of dream they want to have, such as getting rich, having a successful career, etc. Although the sleep quality cannot catch up with the high-quality mode, users can be in a good mood when they wake up.
Dai Li helped Qu Yan set the high-quality mode for 10 hours, then handed it to him and asked him to put it on.
"Teacher Dai, isn't this a smart bracelet? Why did you give it to me?"
"Strictly speaking, this bracelet should be called a sleep bracelet. As long as you choose the setting mode, it can help you fall asleep and ensure that you are dreamless throughout the whole process in high-quality mode."
Qu Yan's wife was surprised and asked, "Can this sleep bracelet really stop him from dreaming at night?"
Under her expectant gaze, Dai Li nodded and began to teach Qu Yan how to use the sleep bracelet.
"I haven't set a password yet, but you can do that later. The sleep band will only be activated by you. Once you turn on 'Go to Sleep' on the band, you can fall asleep in under three seconds by putting on the electronic sleep mask. The band will only wake you up when the time you set is up."
Qu Yan is still researching the sleep bracelet, and his wife can't wait any longer.
"Try it quickly."
Upon hearing this, Qu Yan put on the bracelet. When he was about to click "Go to Sleep", he suddenly raised his head and asked Dai Li uncertainly.
"Is it really possible to fall asleep in three seconds?"
His wife was impatient: "Why are you talking so much? Would Teacher Dai go to the trouble of teasing you?"
Perhaps because his wife usually liked to talk to him in this coquettish tone, Qu Yan smiled knowingly.
Without saying anything more, he just clicked "Go to sleep" and then took the eye mask handed to him by his wife.
He put on the eye patch, found a comfortable position on the bed, and then stopped moving.
Qu Yan's wife opened her bright eyes and observed Qu Yan carefully without blinking, and found that he did not move for a long time.
She didn't dare to speak loudly, so she could only ask softly and in surprise, "Teacher Dai, is he asleep?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Qu Yan's soft snoring in his sleep.
Suddenly her eyes lit up.
After Qu Yan's affairs were resolved, it was time for Dai Li to leave.
Qu Yan's wife saw her to the door and thanked her profusely.
Dai Li: "You don't need to stay here to watch over him tonight. He won't wake up before the set time."
Qu Yan's wife nodded repeatedly.
But she was reluctant to leave. After closing the door, she sat down beside Qu Yan's bed, propped up her chin, silently looked at his sleeping face, and listened to his snoring.
She used to hate Qu Yan’s snoring. Every time Qu Yan snored, she would kick him or pinch his waist.
Now she found that there was no sound in the world more beautiful than Qu Yan's snoring while he was sleeping.
