Chapter 271 Spending Money to Buy Time
After seven o'clock in the evening, Zijinyuan Community.
After dinner, Yu Zhiming stood up and said to Yu Xiangwan, "Sister, come to the bedroom. I have something to tell you."
"The table and kitchen will be cleaned up later."
Gu Qingning leaned forward and asked, "Zhiming, what's the big deal that you need to hide from me?"
Yu Zhi understood her and said, "Of course there are things between us siblings that you need to avoid."
"Be more self-aware and don't eavesdrop. It's useless to eavesdrop."
Gu Qingning curled her lips in disdain.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Yu Zhiming couldn't wait to ask: "Fourth sister, do you think it's possible that Zeng Yan likes me?"
"What? Zeng Yan likes you?" Yu Xiangwan blinked, a little confused for a moment.
Yu Zhiming explained: "Zeng Yan is at the age of young love, and I am such an outstanding person, and I treat her so well."
"What if she really has feelings for me?"
Yu Xiangwan saw that his brother looked worried and sad, and it didn't seem like he was pretending.
After being stunned for a moment, she couldn't help laughing.
"Falling in love with you? Lao Wu, how could you think of that? Haha, that's so funny."
"How is this possible! Haha..."
Yu Zhiming felt a little embarrassed and annoyed when he saw his sister laughing so hard that she was leaning forward and backward.
"Sister, what's so funny about this? Zeng Yan and I can legally be a couple."
"Isn't it possible that she decided to become a doctor just to be close to me?"
Yu Xiangwan saw that his brother didn't seem to be joking, so he quickly stopped laughing.
She thought seriously for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Old Five, you're just feeling good about yourself and overthinking it."
"Zeng Yan doesn't like you that much!"
"I've had much more contact with Zeng Yan than you have, and I can guarantee that she doesn't have that kind of thought about you."
"Sister, are you sure she really has no idea at all?" Yu Zhiming felt relieved, but also a little hurt.
Yu Xiangwan suppressed her laughter and said seriously, "I'm sure. When you were with Qing Ning, I didn't notice any unusual look or expression on Zeng Yan's face."
"If you have feelings for me, it's impossible to hide it completely without showing any unusual behavior."
"As a woman myself, I know this clearly."
These words made Yu Zhiming feel truly relieved, but he also felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable.
Yu Xiangwan chuckled again and said, "Old Five, don't feel so good about yourself."
"You are indeed tall, good-looking, and capable, but you are not to the extent that everyone loves you."
"Be content that a girl as good as Qing Ning likes you. Don't always look down on her."
Yu Zhiming felt a little uncomfortable, hummed twice, and then he spoke slowly with an idea in his mind.
"Sister, if we are not siblings, I mean, if we are not siblings, will you like me?"
"The kind that chooses me as a boyfriend?"
Yu Xiangwan looked Yu Zhiming up and down and said, "If you weren't my brother..."
Yu Xiangwan suddenly shuddered, her body shaking, and a look of disgust appeared on her face.
"How far will I go, as far as I can get away from you!"
"Why?" Yu Zhiming was very confused.
Yu Xiangwan hummed softly, "You are my brother, so I will naturally take care of your daily life and diet willingly."
"But if it becomes a boyfriend..."
Yu Xiangwan rolled her eyes and said, "I'm looking for a boyfriend who loves and pampers me, not someone who turns me into a nanny and waits on him all day long."
“Life is full of daily necessities, but it also has its share of warm, romantic surprises.”
"Old Five, you don't know how to do anything except cure illnesses and save lives. At most, you're just looking for something new. After three to five months, they'll understand your true nature and leave you for sure."
"Sister, am I really that unbearable?" Yu Zhiming felt very cold in his heart and was completely hurt.
Yu Xiangwan patted Yu Zhiming's shoulder and sat down next to him on the edge of the bed.
"You're not unbearable, it's just that everyone has their own preferences."
"For example, I like the warmth of a small family, with mutual support between the two of us."
"People like Qing Ning like people like you, Lao Wu, who have great abilities. Family life is secondary. What they value more is career, achievement, and honor."
These words made Yu Zhiming feel much better.
"Sister, my family has always been on my side, and I don't have to do any work. Have you always been dissatisfied with me?"
"Want to hear the truth?"
"Um!"
Yu Xiangwan recalled, "There was a time when I really had some objections and wanted to beat you up."
"We are both our parents' children and we are the same age, so why do you get all the good food and drinks first and don't have to do anything?"
"But gradually, I stopped thinking that way."
"Who told you not to see?"
"Just because I can't see?" Yu Zhiming was very depressed.
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "Not only that, except for being a little greedy and not working, everything else about you is pretty good."
"You're usually quite well behaved. When others bully me, you protect me and throw rocks at them."
"What's important is that you have a strength, like what our father said, a stubbornness that can't be pulled back by nine bulls. You can always accomplish what you want to do."
Yu Xiangwan added admiringly, "My dad always said that if your eyesight improved, you would become a great talent in the future."
"Looking at it now, our dad is still right."
Yu Zhiming smiled with a hint of pride.
Yu Xiangwan held Yu Zhiming's hand and said, "Do you remember that time you fell into the reservoir?"
"If you hadn't tried so hard to save me, I wouldn't be here."
Yu Zhiming shook Fourth Sister's hand and said, "Sister, you were the first one to jump into the water to save me."
Yu Xiangwan smiled awkwardly and said, "I figured it out later. If I didn't go down to save you, you could get ashore on your own."
"Going down to save you almost killed both of us."
After a pause, Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "We are siblings, so it's normal for us to quarrel and fight."
"But if you have any problem, I will definitely be the first to rush over."
Yu Zhiming grinned and said, "Sister, me too."
Yu Xiangwan reached out and pinched Yu Zhiming's cheek, sighing, "I never dreamed that you, Old Fifth, would have such a great ability to cure illnesses and save lives."
"Old Five, don't forget..."
"Your eyesight was not good, and during the years you followed me to school, I held your hand every day to go to and from school.
Yu Xiangwan emphasized again: "No matter the wind or rain, it won't stop us."
Yu Zhiming got straight to the point, "Has the money run out?"
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "No, I have enough money. I was just reminding you."
"Lest you become a noble and forget things."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Yu Xiangwan changed the subject and said, "Hey, with that academician stepping in, Zeng Yan's transfer to another university has been completely settled?"
Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "It's almost certain. We should have confirmed news in the next week or two."
Yu Xiangwan exhaled lightly and said, "It's good that it's done. But as for the love you mentioned, we also need to be prepared. Just because you don't have that feeling now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future."
Yu Zhiming chuckled, "You won't have to worry about that in the future. Once you enter medical school, you won't have enough time to study every day, so you won't have the time and energy to think about random things."
Just then, the bedroom door creaked open and Gu Qingning's little head poked in.
She put on a flattering smile and said, "We've been talking for so long, would you like some water?"
"Also, Zhiming, my brother just called and asked you to call him back when it's convenient for you!"
Yu Zhiming said "oh" and stood up to leave the bedroom, but he did not forget to remind her, "Fourth sister, what happened just now is between you and me, don't tell anyone else."
He couldn't let Gu Qingning find out about his self-satisfaction and wishful thinking.
Yu Zhiming took his cell phone to the living room and called Gu Qingran.
"Dean Gu, is there something wrong?"
Gu Qingran replied on the phone, "It's just a small matter. Mr. Huang Ling, an entrepreneur from Hangzhou, sent someone to Ning'an Hospital today to inspect the treatment level and recuperation environment."
"You said you recommended it?"
Yu Zhiming uttered an "oh" and said, "That guy is a late-stage cancer patient with metastatic disease. He dislikes the poor environment at Huashan Hospital and wants to find a hospital with a beautiful view and high-quality medical care."
"I just casually recommended you that place."
Gu Qingran laughed and said, "Doctor Yu, let me put it this way, we did have this idea, to build a high-level private hospital for wealthy people to treat and recuperate."
"For this purpose, we have specially built more than a dozen luxurious suite wards that are no less than five-star standards."
"It's just that wishes are beautiful, but reality is very cruel. We in Ning'an have never been recognized by the rich."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Those rich people either go abroad for treatment or go to one of the top 10 or 20 hospitals in China. You, Ning An, can't even get a number."
Gu Qingran echoed: "That's indeed the case."
"We in Ning'an have always lacked the kind of top doctors recognized by the medical community who can reassure patients and attract them."
After a pause, Gu Qingran continued, "After Mr. Huang's inspection today, I personally think that our place still meets his requirements and the probability of him moving in is very high."
"Doctor Yu, if you have patients like this in the future, please recommend them more often. I will give you a commission."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "No need for commission. I am also doing this for the convenience of future treatment."
"I don't want to go back and forth to Hangzhou with all the hard work."
At this point, Yu Zhiming became alert and warned, "Dean Gu, you are not allowed to use my name to recruit patients like Huang Ling."
"They have no hope of treatment and are just waiting for time. I need to spend more of my time and energy on patients who have hope of recovery."
Gu Qingran said slowly: "For patients like Mr. Huang, it means spending money to buy time."
"They are willing to spend one million, ten million, or even more to live one more month."
"Doctor Yu..."
Gu Qingran asked slowly: "One thousand yuan to give them a checkup, will you do it?"
"No!" Yu Zhiming answered very quickly.
"How about 10,000 yuan per time?"
Yu Zhiming hesitated for a moment, the words of refusal coming to his lips but he didn't say them out loud.
"One hundred thousand yuan per time?" Gu Qingran's words came from the phone again...
