Social Death Patient 087
Ge Jiaan was rushed to the hospital that day. After a series of examinations, it was exactly as Bai Jiesui said. The brain CT scan showed a shadow, which was later confirmed by the attending doctor to be sparganosis.
Ge Jiaan's condition is rather dangerous and complicated. The worms have stayed in his body for quite some time and are currently very close to his brain's functional area. Even if surgery is arranged now, it may affect his normal limb function and language ability.
This was like a bolt from the blue for Durana, not only because Ge Jiaan was in critical condition, but more importantly, the family business had always been managed by Ge Jiaan, and she had never asked about it. If Ge Jiaan made any mistake, what would happen to the family business?
Of course, this is not the most devastating thing for Durana.
It’s not scary to encounter something, what’s scary is that this thing is known to the whole country.
The couple were both featured in the social news as negative examples, warning residents not to take risks that would only end up trapping themselves.
This completely confirmed Bai Jiesui's diagnosis.
Is there really something wrong with her husband's brain? If that's the case, there's nothing controversial about their surrogacy.
[There was no dispute in the first place. It was just that Duranna herself didn't dare to admit it. There's a huge difference between having given birth and not having given birth.]
Do you remember Shi Yuanjie? She and Du Lana were such an interesting pair. One had a child but pretended to be a childless girl, while the other pretended to be a childless woman.
I never thought that my childhood sweetheart would also collapse. If you want a child, can't you just have one yourself? If you don't want to take the risk of having a child, just be a DINK. No one is forcing you to have children. How can you exploit other women?
Judging from the timeline, Duranna's son was born at the height of her popularity. She was famous nationwide for her role as Dongfang Wuyou and had taken on several leading roles in dramas. How could she afford to delay having a child for a year or two?
[After all, Duranna married into a wealthy family. She chose a surrogate mother and her husband's family actually agreed?]
[Of course they don't know. The traditional elders would never agree. Duranna's mother-in-law is not an easy person to deal with. She founded the Jia'an International Hotel, but she handed it over to her son a long time ago.]
It was only after seeing the news that Ge's mother learned about Durana's surrogacy.
"I'm wondering why you insisted on going abroad to give birth, telling me it was to get a green card. I don't know what kind of magic tricks you put on my son. He insisted on marrying you, and you even tricked him into joining you to fool me. How could my grandson be born from a foreign woman? How can Jimmy hold his head up high in the future?"
Ge's mother has been scolding Durana for several days.
Fortunately, Jimmy is studying abroad, so what happens in the country cannot affect him.
Durana lowered her head and accepted the scolding, not daring to say a word in reply.
She looked visibly haggard these days. She didn't have the heart to put on makeup when going out, nor did she dare to.
This was the darkest moment in her life since her debut more than 20 years ago. Being out of fashion before was a small matter. She maintained a good reputation. In addition, her husband was rich, so she never worried about anything.
This is the biggest crisis she has ever encountered in her life, and it is a huge crisis.
After scolding Durana, Ge's mother would usually scold her own son as well.
"You too, she told you to find someone else to help you get pregnant and have the baby, and you did it. You were so confident, how much did she fool you with?"
At that time, Ge Jia'an was obsessed with Durana. When she was young, Durana was beautiful and had national fame. He was able to win Durana over, and countless people were envious of him. Basically, he gave Durana whatever she wanted, including houses, bags and jewelry without blinking an eye.
Later, Duranna told him that she did not want to have children herself and wanted to find a surrogate mother abroad. Ge Jiaan did not agree at the time. He had very traditional ideas and believed that he must have children himself.
But he couldn't resist Durana's soft and hard persuasion. Durana persuaded him for two months, and listed the benefits of finding a surrogate mother to him in detail, and added the temptation of a green card.
After repeated brainwashing operations, Ge Jiaan finally agreed and took some time to secretly go abroad with her.
Thinking about it now, Ge Jiaan felt that he was out of his mind at the time. He actually believed Durana's bad idea. Not only did he believe it once, he almost agreed to have another surrogate pregnancy with her.
But now that the child is born, there is not much point in talking about anything else.
"Mom, that's enough. You should stop talking. I have a terrible headache."
Mother Ge's attention was immediately diverted, and she asked Ge Jia'an with concern: "Has your illness relapsed? I'll call a doctor to check you out."
Ge Jiaan: "If the doctor comes, he will just ask us to do the surgery as soon as possible."
Mother Ge objected harshly, "How can this be possible? This is such a risky operation. If those experts are not 100% sure, how can I dare let them operate on your head? This is your head, not some other part of your body."
Ge Jiaan has not undergone surgery so far. His attending physician has consulted with experts several times, but has not been able to come up with a treatment plan that meets his family's requirements.
Because Ge's mother was very determined, she demanded that the attending physician must guarantee a 100% success rate and that the surgery must not affect the limb function and language ability.
She kept dragging her feet and refused to sign, insisting that the doctor give her a promise, so Ge Jiaan's surgery was not scheduled for a long time.
But at the same time, she was very anxious. As long as the sparganosis in the brain was not removed, the risk would become greater day by day. Once the parasites destroyed the functional areas, there would be basically no possibility of recovery.
So she has become more and more irritable in recent days and has been spending more time complaining about Durana.
Ge Jiaan was also extremely anxious. The sparganosis was growing on his head, so he was the one who was worried all day long.
"Why don't we call Dr. Bai over? From what she said the other day, it seemed like she had a solution."
He didn't think about looking for Bai Jiesui a few days ago, as he thought the hospital could cure him completely.
Who knew that the hospital listed countless accidents and risks for him, the most serious of which was that the movement of his limbs would be affected and his language ability would regress. In the future, he would need 24-hour care for a long time. It was uncertain when he would be able to return to normal, and it was also unclear to what extent he would be able to recover.
Ge Jiaan is used to the glory outside, so how could he allow himself to become a useless person?
At this time he thought of the white mustard.
Mother Ge: "Who is Doctor Bai? Is there any other expert named Bai in this hospital?"
Ge Jiaan glanced at Duranna first and said, "She was the Chinese doctor who cured the young master of the Zong family. She was also the one who discovered the bug in my head."
If Bai Jiesui had not said with certainty that there were sparganosis in his brain, they might still have treated it as a stroke. He might have been "cured" and gone home at this time, but by the time they discovered it again, it would probably be too late to save him.
Mother Ge remembered that this was the Chinese doctor who leaked her family's secret.
According to Ge's mother's personality, she should resent Bai Jiesui for meddling in her affairs, but now her son is obviously more important, and any conflict is insignificant compared to her son's health.
What she was more concerned about was whether white mustard could cure Ge Jiaan's illness.
"Does the young master of the Zong family have the same illness as you?"
"The illness is different, but she should have a solution. She said I can come to her if I need anything."
Afterwards, Ge Jiaan already knew the meaning of Bai Jiesui's message. She wanted to find out something from Duranna, so she would not make an empty promise. There must be a real way.
Mother Ge: "Since she said so, let's invite her to come and take a look. No matter whether it works or not, let her try it first."
Ge Jiaan glanced at Duranna and said, "Let Xiao Du make the call."
Durana must make this call to invite Bai Jiesui.
Durana seemed not to hear anything and did not react at all.
Mother Ge was furious and scolded, "Xiao Du, what are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear Jia'an say to call Doctor Bai?"
Duranna also knew that she had no choice. No matter how much she didn't want to contact Bai Jiesui, she had to call Bai Jiesui over.
After preparing herself mentally, she went to an empty corridor and called Bai Jiesui.
She thought Bai Jiesui would quickly answer her call. In this game, she lost miserably and Bai Jiesui won everything. The winner could not help but enjoy the fruits of his victory.
However, he only picked up the phone slowly when she dialed for the second time and the phone was about to hang up automatically.
She seemed to know the situation at the hospital and asked, "It's been a few days. Hasn't Mr. Ge's surgery been done yet? Your family has such a good mentality."
On the contrary, the whole family was actually unable to sleep or eat.
Because of this, Durana felt that she was mocking herself.
"Miss Bai, you won as you wished. Are you satisfied?"
Bai Jiesui waited for a moment before saying, "Teacher Du, is this your attitude when asking for help?"
Durana clenched her palms, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried hard to adjust her mentality. She knew that she no longer had the capital to challenge Bai Jiesui.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Bai. I've been under a lot of pressure these days. I wasn't paying attention to my tone just now. I hope you don't mind."
"I don't mind, but I don't know if you are willing to cooperate."
"Just ask whatever you want to know. I will tell you everything I know." Durana let out a sigh of resignation. Her career was ruined anyway. She was now criticized by the authorities and condemned by the entire network. It was only a matter of time before she was completely banned. The only person she could hold on to was Ge Jiaan, and she must not let Ge Jiaan have any accidents.
Bai Jiesui: "You weren't the only one who wanted to drive her away at that time, right? Was Hua Xin one of your accomplices?"
Durana didn't expect that the first person she asked was Hua Xin, which showed that they had been suspecting Hua Xin since a long time ago.
Durana completely gave up on covering for Hua Xin and revealed everything about Hua Xin.
"I admit that I was jealous of Bai Shuang, but actually I didn't want to deal with her at the beginning. I just complained to Hua Xin on the phone, saying that Bai Shuang's performance was very good and her understanding was very strong. The director team and investors were very satisfied with her. She was already the default heroine, and I was under a lot of pressure. Hua Xin encouraged me to squeeze Bai Shuang out, and even gave me advice and taught me how to naturally hinder her training. I gossiped about Yan Yushan's gossip in front of her, and instilled the message that she and Yan Yushan were not a good match every day..."
Durana heard some unusual movement on the other end of the phone, like the sound of someone slapping the table, and the noise was quite loud, so she paused for a moment.
But the noise soon stopped.
Bai Jiesui calmly reminded, "It's okay, just continue."
Durana knew that there must be other people around her, but at this point, she no longer needed to avoid them.
She continued, "In fact, the first month had no effect. No matter how much I gossiped about Yan Yushan or belittled her status, she continued to train as usual. It wasn't affected at all. Hua Xin's criticism of me was useless. Even the psychological warfare couldn't be outplayed by Bai Shuang. A week before the training camp ended, she even came to the training base and said she wanted to help me personally."
"You said Hua Xin came to your crew's training base specifically?"
"She came here specifically to look for Bai Shuang. She said she wanted to bring something to Teacher Yan. I don't know what they talked about specifically. I was in a hurry to go to dance class that day, so I didn't stay in the room for long."
Duranna was careful not to tell them that they had also visited an "unexpected" location this time.
Because Bai Shuang's reaction was too calm at the time, Hua Xin thought that he had failed to instigate the incident, so he discussed with Durana that they should be ruthless and go all out to create an "accident".
To this end, they scouted several places in the base.
Afterwards, Duranna answered several more questions based on those asked by Bai Jiesui.
She did somewhat whitewash her behavior, but when it came to talking about Hua Xin, she didn't whitewash it at all and revealed everything.
The conversation lasted nearly half an hour before all the important questions were asked.
During the whole process, Durana was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. Bai Jiesui kept asking questions, and they were very tricky, leaving her no way to explain herself.
Moreover, Ge's mother would come out from time to time and urge her with her eyes.
After hearing Bai Jie Sui say that she had finished asking questions, she couldn't wait to ask when Bai Jie Sui would come.
"Doctor Bai, this is urgent. Jia'an's illness can't be delayed any longer."
Bai Jiesui did not answer this question, but instead asked an irrelevant question.
"Has Teacher Du finished reading the script written by Zong Jin?"
Durana was silent. She didn't dare to finish reading the script.
"If Teacher Du hasn't seen it, I suggest you take a good look at it. It's very interesting."
She didn't tell him when she would come, and was beating around the bush. Durana felt she was hinting at her.
Durana found the script in Ge Jiaan's handbag. It was the second one given to her.
She picked up where it left off and read on.
In the script, the heroine started from scratch and finally succeeded before the age of 30. She stood on the highest podium and became a powerful actress sought after by thousands of people.
After marrying into a wealthy family, the supporting actress has been semi-retired. She lives the life of a wealthy wife, but she still keeps making trouble for the female lead and joins forces with her acquaintances to ban her.
But no matter what tricks she played, she couldn't stop the tenacious heroine from rising to the top and winning the crown.
In the end, the female supporting role and her wealthy husband failed in their investment, owed billions in debt, and were put on the blacklist of deadbeats. The female supporting role was forced to come back to repay the debt.
At this point, the identities of the supporting actress and the leading actress have long been completely different, and the dirty things the supporting actress has done to the leading actress over the years are exposed.
The incident caused a huge uproar. Before the female supporting role could fully return to the screen, she was immediately boycotted by the entire network.
The female supporting character's final fate is miserable and tragic, which seems to be a reflection of Duranna's future situation.
Durana understood what she meant, this matter was not over yet.
