I've decided where this bus terminates, and I'll find a place to stay nearby.
...
When the train stopped at the station, my phone suddenly vibrated. This time, it was Ping Ge calling me.
He's not one to waste time with small talk, so as soon as the call connected, he got straight to the point and asked me, "Have you decided when you're coming to Thailand?"
I hesitated a bit because my plan was to bring Yang Sisi along, and before making this plan, I didn't know my leg would be this bad. I thought I could recover and run and swim like before...
I no longer have that drive.
I finally spoke up and asked Ping Ge, "Why are you so concerned about my trip to Thailand?"
The guy on the other end of the phone chuckled and replied, "To be honest, I haven't completely given up on real estate speculation yet... You've never been to Thailand, so whether you like it here or not, you'll have to see for yourself. Maybe after you stay here for a while, you'll find that this place is suitable for living, and then you'll understand... Then, we can start this real estate speculation business together!"
Ping Ge probably forgot that I actually went to Thailand; however, I didn't go there with the mindset of going on vacation... and that period was a bit gloomy, so for a long time, whenever I thought of Thailand, I felt a bit depressed, until almost a year later when I finally emerged from that depressed feeling.
However, this did not affect my conversation with Ping Ge, so I did not provide a specific explanation.
...
Brother Ping is an elder, and I wanted to tell him about my current predicament, hoping he could give me some advice. So, after a moment of silence, I replied, "Brother Ping, my situation is really bad right now... My leg hasn't recovered at all. I went to the hospital for a checkup this morning, and they found out that my common peroneal nerve is damaged. I might not be able to walk in the future... I feel like my life is over!"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before he said to me, "Michael, I won't say anything more to advise you... I was right to call you... I have a friend who's a doctor in a Bangkok hospital, a leading authority in neurology... Your condition can't be delayed, you should come to Thailand as soon as possible, I'll ask him to treat you..."
I have doubts about the quality of healthcare in Thailand.
Ping Ge seemed to sense my worry and continued, "Don't underestimate Bangkok. It's a top-tier city internationally... its medical standards are comparable to major cities in China, and this doctor and I have a very close relationship. You know, in the medical field, connections make all the difference... You should come quickly; your hope lies in Bangkok... Our business partnership is secondary; your health is paramount and can't be delayed..."
