Old K had been with his young master for over ten years. Although he wasn't entirely clear on the young master's concerns, he could guess a little. If the old master's grandson was one of the people the young master had to eliminate, then Wen Yiran was second in his heart.
"I see." The young master was not as happy as Old K had imagined. There was not even a hint of excitement in his tone of voice. Instead, he was as calm as usual.
"Then...does Old K need to monitor Wen Yiran's ward these days?" Old K didn't understand what the young master meant, so he had to ask one more question cautiously.
"No need, just go to Sanhe Town and take care of your business. I have already made arrangements with Wen Yiran." After the young master said this, he hung up the phone without waiting for Old K to say anything.
Old K held the microphone in his hand for a moment, then slowly put it back down. The Young Master's thoughts had become increasingly difficult to predict over the years, but Old K had no way out. Ever since he'd disobeyed his father's wishes and chosen the Young Master as his loyal lord, there was no turning back.
At the hospital, Wen Ziqing waited outside Dr. Hu's office. He knew Zhao Qingshan and Dr. Hu would definitely discuss a treatment plan for Wen Yiran's condition. After all, Dr. Hu was Wen Yiran's attending physician, and no one knew more about the situation when Dr. Hu was admitted to the hospital than Dr. Hu.
Wen Ziqing didn't stand at the door for long before Zhao Qingshan and Dr. Hu walked out of the clinic together. Based on Dr. Hu's description and Zhao Qingshan's own judgment, Wen Yiran's condition was quite serious. No matter what, he had to start treating Wen Yiran as soon as possible.
Zhao Qingshan was walking in front, while Doctor Hu, carrying a medical kit, lagged behind him half a step. Seeing this, Wen Ziqing hurriedly followed the two of them.
The three of them lined up in a row and hurried towards Wen Yiran's ward, attracting a lot of inquiring gazes.
There was no way around it. Dr. Hu was too famous in the hospital. The doctors and nurses rarely saw Dr. Hu so anxious, let alone holding medical instruments in person. Was something serious wrong? Everyone speculated, and even Zhao Qingshan and Wen Ziqing, who were with Dr. Hu, were gossiping about it.
In the ward, Dr. Qiu was making rounds.
Feng Xueying's face was filled with grief. She grabbed Dr. Qiu's hand and asked, "Dr. Qiu, tell me the truth. I can handle it, but is my husband...is he not feeling well?"
Normally, no matter which of Wen Yiran and Feng Xueying came to the hospital for treatment, the doctors would immediately present a treatment plan. However, this time, Wen Yiran had been in the hospital for over ten hours, yet Doctors Hu and Qiu hadn't told Feng Xueying what treatment they would be using.
"Director Feng, Mayor Wen's condition was quite critical yesterday, but he's stabilized somewhat today. We'll wait for Doctor Hu to perform acupuncture on Mayor Wen later to see how he's doing so we can determine his true condition."
Dr. Qiu didn't want to tell Feng Xueying so much detail, but when he saw Feng Xueying's grief-stricken look, Dr. Qiu thought of his mother.
Dr. Qiu's father was the breadwinner of the family, and his mother was a housewife who listened to his father in everything. When Dr. Qiu's father passed away a few years ago, his mother was also in a state of panic.
Wen Yiran suffered a sudden rupture of brain capillaries. This condition has a high mortality rate. Some people lose their breath while in a coma, with no chance of waking up. Even if others regain consciousness, they are likely to suffer from hemiplegia.
Wen Yiran is the mayor of Qingshan City. During his eight years in Qingshan City, he has done many good things that benefit the country and the people. As for Wen Yiran, Dr. Qiu hopes that he can be well so that he can continue to serve the people.
However, according to Dr. Qiu and Dr. Hu's assessment last night, Wen Yiran's chances of recovery were practically zero. Even if he survived, he might still be paralyzed upon waking. Could someone with paralysis still work? The conclusion was, it was impossible.
Before Wen Yiran woke up, Dr. Qiu had no way of telling Feng Xueying how serious Wen Yiran's condition was, and whether there would be any sequelae. Medical miracles do exist, so what if Wen Yiran survived?
After some emergency treatment last night, the capillary bleeding in Wen Yiran's brain finally stopped. However, the previous blood clots may have blocked some of Wen Yiran's nerves, so that more than a day has passed, and Wen Yiran still hasn't woken up.
Doctors Qiu and Hu discussed Wen Yiran's condition and decided that the best treatment for him now was for Dr. Hu to perform acupuncture to dissolve the blood clots in his brain. This was easier said than done.
The human brain is a very complex place. It contains about 14 billion neuron cell bodies and more than 10 billion nerve cells. According to some measurements by neurologists, the nerve cell circuits in the human brain are more than 1,400 times more complex than today's global telephone network.
Medical equipment in this era was still very backward, and it was impossible to see where the blood clots in Wen Yiran's head were distributed. Dr. Hu's acupuncture was based on his many years of medical experience.
Dr. Qiu was a doctor of medicine who had studied abroad. He had suffered a lot in the early days of the movement. Fortunately, there were people like Wen Yiran who protected Dr. Qiu. Otherwise, Dr. Qiu wouldn't be standing here treating patients right now.
Dr. Qiu, a man in his forties, is not pedantic. He studied Western medicine and also spent three to five years studying Traditional Chinese Medicine, a long-standing tradition in China. He initially pursued Western medicine with the goal of "learning from the strengths of both to overcome the weaknesses of the other." He has always hoped to combine these two distinct systems of medicine to achieve greater benefits.
To Dr. Qiu's surprise, Dr. Hu didn't immediately agree with his suggestion. The human brain is incredibly complex, and Dr. Hu wouldn't dare give the acupuncture unless he was at least 70% certain.
What if the acupuncture is not done well and Wen Yiran becomes a fool?
Dr. Hu was already wary of Wen Yiran's status, not to mention that he was a member of the Wen family in Kyoto. Doctors would rather treat such a prestigious individual slowly than resort to radical measures.
"Then call Dr. Hu quickly!" Feng Xueying was so regretful after hearing what Dr. Qiu said. Feng Xueying hadn't anticipated that Lao Wen's condition would be so critical. If she had known this, why would she have gotten angry with Lao Wen?
"Doctor Hu is studying the treatment plan." Doctor Qiu smiled awkwardly, not wanting to say anything in front of Feng Xueying.
