Chapter 273: Catching the Wave
"Yeah, what are you doubting?! When did I meet him? Is this important?"
Huo Yunting was silent for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "Starting tomorrow, don't let him send you medicine anymore. I'll go get the prescription from him and have someone boil it and send it to you every day."
Chi Muzhen originally wanted to ask, what's the difference?
But seeing Huo Yunting's serious expression, he could only nod and say, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
After they finished their meal and watched a movie together, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Around noon the next day, Chi Muzhen received a call from Xu Ye.
"Zhenzhen, Huo Yunting is keeping a close eye on you. He was waiting at the door of my clinic this morning before it even opened. He told me not to boil medicine for you anymore. Just give him the prescription and he'll find someone to boil it."
Hearing the teasing in Xu Ye's tone, Chi Muzhen raised an eyebrow, "You just gave him the prescription like that?"
"Of course not. The prescription I wrote was very expensive, but since he's your man, I gave him a discount and only charged him two million. Isn't that a good deal?"
Chi Muzhen couldn't help but grit her teeth. He's so dark, and you still dare to say it's a good deal?!
"Brother, your ability to deceive people is still as strong as before!"
"Thank you so much! By the way, what have you thought about Shi Yiheng's case? If he doesn't get surgery soon, his life might be in danger soon."
Hearing the seriousness in Xu Ye's tone, Chi Muzhen bit her lower lip, hesitation in her eyes.
"Brother, he is my friend."
"He's also a patient."
Chi Muzhen sighed, "I'm afraid if the operation fails, I may never get over this hurdle in my life."
Xu Ye frowned. "If you are willing to save him, he still has a chance to live. If you don't save him, his only fate is to die."
"Let me think about it again."
"There's not much time left. He needs surgery in three days. Think carefully about it and don't put too much pressure on yourself. As a doctor, just do your best. There are many things we can't decide."
"Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Ye called Shi Yiheng's attending physician and told him about this.
In the hospital, Shi Yiheng's ward.
Ever since he found out that he had a blood clot on the back of his head and that surgery had only a 10% success rate, Shi Yiheng's daily routine was mostly about staring out the window.
Brother Cheng didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only accompany him silently.
At the same time, Brother Cheng became increasingly dissatisfied with Chi Muzhen. If it weren't for saving Chi Muzhen, Shi Yiheng wouldn't have fainted and been hit by the chandelier, and he wouldn't have been left waiting to die at such a young age.
Cheng Ge looked annoyed and said to Shi Yiheng, "Why don't you get the surgery? There's still a 10% chance. If you don't get the surgery, you'll just have to wait to die."
Shi Yiheng turned his head and glanced at him, his expression indifferent: "Is there any difference between 10% and nothing?"
Since he was going to die anyway, he wanted to choose a less painful way and didn't want to die on the operating table.
Brother Cheng scratched his hair and said, "If you don't want to have the surgery, then at least tell Chi Muzhen that you did it to save her. Otherwise, even if you die, she won't feel the slightest bit of guilt!"
Shi Yiheng smiled bitterly, "When the flood hit Shili Village, I should have been washed away by the flood. It was she who saved me and allowed me to survive. Now it's just the same ending as in Shili Village. I even lived a little longer, so it's not a loss at all."
"You're only twenty-two! You're so young and the most promising actor under my wing. How can I accept that you won't live more than six months?!"
Shi Yiheng looked calm and was about to speak when the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open and the Shi family's housekeeper pushed Shi Xingguo in.
"What are you doing here?!"
Shi Yiheng's eyes were filled with coldness and disgust, even with a hint of hatred.
Shi Xingguo coughed lightly and said angrily, "You didn't tell me that you were sick, what on earth should I be doing here?!"
Shi Yiheng sneered, "Do you know you're a father now? Where were you when my mother was sick and had no money to treat her? Where were you when I was on my knees begging for a steamed bun? I had no relationship with you in the past, and I never will in the future!"
"Nonsense! I used to let you do whatever you wanted because I felt sorry for you and your mother. But I won't indulge you like that anymore. Pack up your things and come back to the capital with me. I'll find the best doctor to treat you!"
"No need. All the world's leading brain doctors have come to see me, and they say they can't perform this surgery. I only have six months left."
Upon hearing this, Shi Xingguo's face turned pale and he gritted his teeth, "Impossible! I won't let you die! You must live well and inherit the Shi family!"
Shi Yiheng found it a little ridiculous that when he and his mother couldn't afford to eat and needed money, Shi Xingguo watched coldly.
It was obvious that if he had just said a word, he and his mother would no longer suffer from hunger and cold, and his mother would not have to run around for money, get sick from exhaustion, and die with hatred in her heart.
Now that he no longer needs money, he holds Shi Shi in front of him with both hands and asks him to take over Shi Shi.
"If you don't believe me, you can go ask a doctor yourself. I'm tired and need to rest. Please leave and don't come back."
After saying that, Shi Yiheng lay down directly, closed his eyes and said to Brother Cheng: "Brother Cheng, please see me off!"
"you!"
Shi Xingguo's face turned ashen, and he wanted to raise the cane in his hand and hit Shi Yiheng hard a few times. No one had ever dared to talk to him like that.
However, Shi Yiheng is his only son. No matter what, he must survive and inherit the Shi family!
Brother Cheng walked up to him and whispered, "Mr. Shi, please."
Shi Xingguo ignored him and looked at Shi Yiheng's back and said, "I'm going to the doctor first to find out the situation. You must come back to the capital with me tomorrow."
"roll!"
Shi Xingguo left the ward angrily. On the way to the doctor's office, he couldn't help but say angrily, "If he wasn't my only son, I wouldn't care about his life or death!"
The butler remained silent in the back. After all, this was the master's business. If he said too much, he might be fired on the spot.
Originally, Shi Xingguo didn't believe that Shi Yiheng's health was so poor that he only had half a year left to live. However, after listening to the words of the attending physician and the analysis of several other internationally renowned doctors, he suddenly became unsure.
"Uncle Wang, please send these reports to your family doctor and ask for his opinion."
"Yes, sir."
Soon, the family doctor replied, but what he said was even more serious than what the other doctors had said. He even said that Shi Yiheng might not live more than three months.
Shi Xingguo's condition has been stabilized by this family doctor for many years. Even if he doesn't trust other doctors, he will definitely not doubt the words of his family doctor.
If Shi Yiheng died, would the Shi family soon be without an heir?!
Thinking of this, he looked at the attending doctor and said, "Is there no other way to save him? Money doesn't matter. As long as he can get better, I will pay any amount!"
The attending physician shook his head helplessly and said, "Mr. Shi, six months is the longest we estimate for survival. If the patient's condition deteriorates rapidly, he probably won't live more than three months."
