The reason why Gu Qingran came to see Yu Zhiming this time, in addition to informing him about some of the work that had been done during this period, was most importantly to bring Qingning home.
He's getting married in two weeks.
The Gu family is wealthy and powerful, and Gu Qingran is the eldest son and grandson of the patriarch of the Gu family, and he also has a wide range of social contacts.
Therefore, his wedding was quite grand and there were many things to do. Qing Ning, as his only sister, naturally had to go home early to share some of the preparations.
Qing Ning packed up her things simply, parted with Yu Zhiming reluctantly, and followed Gu Qingran out of Yu's house.
Gu Qingran felt a little jealous when she saw Qingning pouting as she entered the elevator.
"I'm your brother, your real brother, and this is such an important event in my life, my wedding, are you so reluctant?"
Gu Qingran did not forget to add, "In order to take care of you, I went on vacation with you and Zhiming first."
Qing Ning hummed softly and revealed the truth, "This is your third wedding, you must be very familiar with it. It shouldn't make any difference whether I'm here or not, right?"
"Also, during the time I wasn't with Zhiming, someone took advantage of the situation and broke in. The entire Gu family is going to cry."
Gu Qingran glared at her sister and said, "The first two times I got married, you were still young and all you knew was playing around."
"This time, you have to help me with the hard work. Don't forget how much I took care of you when you were a child."
"As for Zhiming being taken advantage of..."
Gu Qingran chuckled, "If he were so easily tempted to fall in love with someone else, you wouldn't be able to stop him even if you stayed by his side every day..."
As they were talking, the brother and sister took the elevator to the first floor and got into the Maserati off-road vehicle parked in front of the building.
Gu Qingran started the car and slowly drove towards the gate of the community, saying in a deep voice, "Qingning, there's something you need to know. Zhiming's biological father is Hua Sifan's second brother, who passed away unexpectedly."
"What? The second brother of the Hua family?"
Qing Ning was surprised and asked anxiously, "What's going on? How did Zhiming become a member of the Hua family again?"
Gu Qingran sighed softly, "Hua Zhiyu, whose old injuries had healed, was in the mood to sort through her parents' belongings. She accidentally discovered several early photos of her father and Zeng Yan's mother."
Qing Ning said "Oh" in understanding, then continued to ask, "What does the Hua family mean? Do they want to recognize Zhiming?"
Gu Qingran said slowly, "At this moment, only Hua Sifan and Hua Zhiyu know about this matter. After my persuasion, Hua Sifan agreed to let it go and pretend nothing happened."
Qing Ning snorted coldly: "This is the best decision."
"Zhiming didn't acknowledge Zeng Yan's mother, and he never inquired about the biological father. It's clear that he had no desire to find out and simply considered himself the son of the Yu family."
"If the Hua family wants to use their blood relationship to get close to Zhiming and take advantage of him, they'll probably end up making things worse."
Gu Qingran nodded and said, "Hua Sifan must have taken this into consideration. Moreover, Zhiming has already achieved great success. If the Hua family recognizes him now, his motives could easily be misunderstood."
"Also, the Hua family is still a bit of a mess. Hua Sifan can only control himself, but he can't control his aunts and uncles."
Qing Ning said angrily, "When Zhiming was in the most difficult time and needed us the most, the Hua family didn't show up. Now, it's better for the Hua family to pretend they don't know."
After a pause, Qing Ning sighed again, "From my eldest sister and my future mother-in-law, I learned a lot about Zhiming's past."
"I have to say, he managed to survive and not only didn't go crazy, but he also became a medical genius. It must be that God couldn't bear it and gave him some compensation."
Qing Ning said with a distressed look on her face, "It's mainly because Zhiming has a good attitude. He believes that his past experiences have made him who he is today, and he shouldn't harbor resentment towards some people or things in the past."
Gu Qingran took over and said, "That's why he spent a lot of effort and favors to help Zeng Yan transfer schools and majors."
"Is this a disguised way of repaying the kindness of life?"
Qing Ning corrected him, "It's mainly because Zhiming saw that Zeng Yan did have the desire to study medicine and had some talent for it."
She sighed again and asked, "The Hua family is considered a medical family. Did Zhiming combine the medical talents of his mother and the Hua family to become a medical genius?"
"Perhaps that's why."
Gu Qingran said perfunctorily, then turned and said, "Let me tell you one more thing. The artificial heart has been negotiated. Ten places are available for patients with advanced cancer each year, for five years."
"My plan is to acquire a domestic medical technology company that has invested heavily in artificial heart research. Ning'an doesn't have the R&D foundation in this area. If we try to do it ourselves and produce results quickly, it will easily arouse external suspicion."
Qing Ning showed little interest in this matter and said, "Just discuss this with Zhiming."
She couldn't help but yawn and said, "I'm so tired. I'm going to sleep for ten hours when I get home and have a good rest."
Seeing his sister yawning, Gu Qingran couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why are you so exhausted? You're so tired after just a few hours of driving?"
Qing Ning forced herself to cheer up and chuckled, "Last night, Zhiming and I, you know, were busy for a long time. We got up at around five in the morning to clean up."
Gu Qingran had long been accustomed to his sister's aggressive words. He snorted softly, "You don't have to cover up for Zhiming. With his frail body, how long can he keep going?"
Qing Ning glanced at him and said, "Don't look down on me. Zhiming's body may look a little weak, but in that aspect, he is unexpectedly strong."
"For details, you can ask Zhiming..."
The next moment, Qing Ning suddenly remembered something, which made her feel a little more energetic.
"Brother, that guy who claims to be our Gu family's brother-in-law and can act as a matchmaker for Zhiming?"
Gu Qingran exhaled lightly and said, "There really is such a person, and he is indeed our Gu family's brother-in-law."
"I also found out that he did accept some benefits from others and did things for them."
Qing Ning asked doubtfully, "I didn't hear Zhiming say that anyone else in the Gu family asked for help with the patient?"
Gu Qingran said, "This is the cleverness of that guy. He told the patients that time is precious and he only treated diseases that other doctors couldn't diagnose."
"He sent those patients to Ning'an Hospital and handed them over to other doctors for treatment."
Gu Qingran shook his head and chuckled, "Our Ning'an Hospital has grown tremendously in the past six months. We can now handle most illnesses without Zhiming's intervention."
"That guy was lucky. All the more than ten patients he sent to the hospital were resolved after reaching the stage of specialist consultation!"
Qing Ning asked again, "If the expert consultation can't solve the problem, will Zhi Ming really have to take action in the end?"
Gu Qingran said gloomily, "For patients like this who can't be cured through layer upon layer of treatment, they might actually ask Zhiming for help in the end."
"First, this case is rare and has considerable research value. Second, no one would have thought that this patient came directly to Zhiming through a request from the very beginning."
Qing Ning couldn't help but chuckle and said, "That kid really knows how to take advantage of loopholes and deceive people."
"Brother, how do we deal with this?"
Gu Qingran said, "Since he hasn't caused much trouble, I can only give him a warning and won't do it again..."
At this moment, Yu Zhiming was already lying in the soundproof bedroom, ready to rest.
As soon as he lay down, he heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and the figure of his fourth sister appeared in his mind.
"Old Five, go back to sleep later."
Yu Zhiming sat up depressed, and Yu Xiangwan pulled his hand and placed it on her lower abdomen.
"I heard that there's a certain chance that one child will turn into two soon after pregnancy."
Yu Xiangwan asked expectantly, "Check carefully to see if they have become two children."
"You and I are twins. Logically speaking, my chances of being pregnant with twins should be relatively high."
Yu Zhiming met Fourth Sister's expectant gaze, raised his eyelids, and explained, "Fourth Sister, you and I are fraternal twins. In this case, we have different appearances, but the genders are 50-50."
"When you say one child becomes two, you mean one fertilized egg splits and forms two embryos. This is called monozygotic twins."
"These twins have the same gender and look the same."
As he spoke, Yu Zhiming withdrew his hand from Fourth Sister's belly and said, "When I examined you, you were already about ten days pregnant. If you were to find out you were pregnant with twins now, it wouldn't be good news."
"Why?" Yu Xiangwan asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Yu Zhiming continued, "Generally speaking, the latest time for a single fetus to split into twins is thirteen days after fertilization."
"Depending on the timing, monozygotic twins are divided into those that split within three days after fertilization, those that split between three and eight days after fertilization, those that split between nine and thirteen days after fertilization, and those that split after thirteen days after fertilization."
"During the first two divisions, the fetus will most likely survive."
"If the latter two types of division occur between nine and thirteen days after fertilization, the two babies will share the same placenta and amniotic membrane, and the children may suffer serious complications."
"If the uterus splits thirteen days after fertilization, there's a high probability of conjoined twins resulting. So if the uterus splits nine days after fertilization at the latest, the children are more likely to survive."
"However, if the twins split nine days after fertilization, they are likely to suffer from serious complications and deformities, and their survival rate is relatively low."
Yu Xiangwan stroked her belly, sighed softly, and said with regret, "I'm thinking of doing the same as my eldest sister, second sister, and third sister. Regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, I'll also have two children. It would be best if I could just have it all at once."
"Now it seems that I have to go through the pain of pregnancy again."
After a pause, Yu Xiangwan continued to ask, "Hey, Lao Wu, I'm now over three weeks pregnant. Do you have any methods or medicines to ensure that my baby is healthy and has no complications or deformities, so that I can have two babies?"
"No!" Yu Zhiming replied decisively.
Yu Xiangwan provoked him by asking, "Old Five, aren't you a medical genius? Can you do what others can't?"
"Is this a problem for you?"
Yu Zhiming was speechless.
"Fourth sister, even if I'm a medical genius, I'm not omnipotent. The birth of life from one to two is so mysterious and miraculous that I can't interfere."
Yu Zhiming felt that this statement was somewhat undermining, so he tried to save his dignity by saying, "This kind of research requires a large number of fertilized eggs, which is against the will of nature."
Yu Xiangwan nodded and said, "That's true."
The next moment, she changed her tone and said, "Old Five, let me tell you something. A very capable business elite has offered to work in the canteen. One condition he put forward is that you treat his wife."
Yu Zhiming uttered an "oh" and said, "Let him contact Zhou Mo and arrange a time..."
