"Mr. Yuan, we already know the total price of the Jiangliu District section this time." Li Chengming said with a smile, looking confident.
Having been working in engineering for a long time, he was naturally familiar with the ins and outs of it. After listening to it, Yuan Fangguo couldn't help but smile. He didn't say anything extra, but just reminded Li Chengming to do the project well and not to damage the company's reputation.
Li Chengming understood and nodded without hesitation.
Not long after Li Chengming left, Zhang Wei from the military hospital called Yuan Fangguo and asked if he had contacted the doctor at the American hospital.
"Our company has been in contact with them, but their hospital business is too busy. We have to wait about a month before we can get a number to go to the United States," said Yuan Fangguo.
Zhang Wei asked, "What about the patient? Is he at home or in the hospital?"
"At home, I didn't tell her about her illness."
"Are you worried that she won't be able to accept the reality after knowing her illness?" Zhang Wei asked.
"Yes, after all, she is just a little girl in her twenties. She didn't have time to enjoy many beautiful things in life."
"Mr. Yuan, your idea is good, but you also have to follow science. Her condition still needs to be controlled during this period. Otherwise, if it worsens, she may not be able to be cured even if she goes to the United States." Zhang Wei explained to Yuan Fangguo from a medical perspective.
Yuan Fangguo on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and he was also doing a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, "Okay, then I'll tell her."
"If you are worried that she won't be able to accept it for a while, the psychologists in our hospital can also provide services for her," said Zhang Wei.
"I'll try my best to convince her." Yuan Fangguo said after thinking about it.
"Okay, that's it, Mr. Yuan, let's get together when we have time."
"Let's go on the weekend. I just happened to invite Huang Xufei, Zhong Jiulin and the others over. Let's sit together." Yuan Fangguo said.
"Okay." Zhang Wei agreed straightforwardly.
After chatting with Zhang Wei for a while, Yuan Fangguo hung up the phone. He was still thinking about the advice Zhang Wei had just given him on the phone. From a medical point of view, Zhang Wei was right and this was indeed the way it should be done.
However, as to whether to tell Ma Tingting on the phone or in person, he began to hesitate between the two options.
After thinking about it, Yuan Fangguo decided to invite Ma Tingting to Chengdu.
Before driver Chen Hanjun set off, Yuan Fangguo called Ma Tingting.
As soon as Ma Tingting received Yuan Fangguo's call, she, who had been somewhat depressed before, suddenly became as excited as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
"Mr. Yuan." Her voice seemed to be a few decibels higher than before.
"Xiao Ma, I asked Chen Hanjun to pick you up. We'll meet in the evening."
"Yeah..." Ma Tingting nodded vigorously.
Yuan Fangguo spent the whole day thinking about how to tell Ma Tingting about her illness. However, he spent the whole afternoon thinking about it but still couldn't come up with a good idea. It was not until Chen Hanjun called him that Yuan Fangguo realized that Ma Tingting was about to arrive in Chengdu.
He drove hurriedly to the hotel and waited for Ma Tingting at the hotel entrance.
Twenty minutes later, the Toyota driven by Chen Hanjun appeared at the hotel entrance on time.
Ma Tingting's figure also appeared in Yuan Fangguo's sight.
He quickly stood up and walked towards Ma Tingting.
"Mr. Yuan." After seeing him, Ma Tingting couldn't help but smile shyly, like a girl next door.
"Xiao Ma." Yuan Fangguo smiled, "You look thinner."
"Cough cough..." Before Ma Tingting could say anything, she coughed a few times.
"Take care of yourself. It's easy to catch a cold this season."
"I've been feeling poorly lately, with recurring colds and fevers." Ma Tingting said self-deprecatingly.
When Yuan Fangguo heard this, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Ma Tingting's physical deterioration must be related to brain cancer.
"How have you been at home recently?" Yuan Fangguo asked with a smile.
"Not bad. The air in my hometown is very good. When you have time, come to my hometown for a visit." Ma Tingting said with a smile. As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help coughing a few times.
"Okay, I'll come visit your hometown when I have time. Let's find a cafe and chat. I've already asked someone to open a room for you. Here's the room card."
"Thank you." Ma Tingting smiled.
The two found a secluded spot in the hotel's cafe and sat down. After taking a sip of the bitter coffee, Yuan Fangguo finally prepared his words. He decided to take this opportunity to tell Ma Tingting the truth.
"Xiao Ma, actually there is something I have always wanted to tell you." Yuan Fangguo felt that when he said this, he was a little afraid to look into Ma Tingting's eyes.
Ma Tingting was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Mr. Yuan, what's the matter?"
"This matter is actually not a big problem, as long as you cooperate well." Yuan Fangguo said.
Ma Tingting was even more confused when she heard this. "Mr. Yuan, what exactly are you talking about?"
Yuan Fangguo paused, then mustered up the courage to ask, "Do you remember last year in Yangcheng when you were hospitalized for a headache?"
When Ma Tingting heard this, she suddenly seemed to understand something.
"I don't think I have cancer, do I?" When she said this, her eyes were filled with the desire to survive.
"It's brain cancer." Yuan Fangguo felt that when he said this, he seemed too cruel, so cruel that he couldn't let others accept it.
"Oh..." To Yuan Fangguo's surprise, Ma Tingting just said "oh" softly.
But she was just a girl who had just started college. Soon, tears welled up in her eyes. She lowered her head, as if she couldn't believe the facts before her. "Why? Why does it always happen to me? Why?"
After saying this, Ma Tingting began to sob softly.
"Xiao Ma, please listen to me. As long as your disease is treated in time, the chances of survival are still very high. We have already contacted Professor White of Cornell Hospital in New York, the United States. Cornell Hospital is a world-renowned hospital for cancer treatment, and Professor White is an expert. I called you to Chengdu right now, one is to apply for a passport for you, and the other is to prepare for you to go to the hospital for early treatment." When Yuan Fangguo said this, he did not dare to look into Ma Tingting's eyes.
Ma Tingting bit her lips tightly, and her appearance suddenly reminded Yuan Fangguo of his ex-girlfriend Lin Yumei, who had done the same thing because of sadness.
At this moment, he felt even more uncomfortable than Ma Tingting.
