Chapter 488 Discounted Reward
After 9:30 in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned to his rented apartment in Zijinyuan, washed up quickly, and sat down at the dining table to eat.
The more than one-hour journey home was a torment for Yu Zhiming, who was hungry and could not stand the hunger. He felt very anxious and uncomfortable.
The food on the table was prepared by Yu Xiangwan and Qingning after they received the notice from Yu Zhiming.
There are four meat and vegetable dishes: braised meat platter, garlic pork, scrambled eggs with leeks, and spicy and sour potato shreds.
The soup is turtledove soup that has been simmered for more than an hour.
The staple food is dumplings.
Seeing that Yu Zhiming was eating and drinking non-stop and looked extremely hungry, Yu Xiangwan couldn't help but ask Zhou Mo who came back with him.
"Momo, what exactly happened?"
"Didn't the patient treat us to a meal?"
"Could it be that there was some error in the diagnosis, and that you had a conflict with the patient?"
Zhou Mo replied briefly, "Sister Xiang Wan, there's no conflict. It's just that the elderly patient was diagnosed with small intestinal cancer, and he had a bit of a breakdown."
"Also, it was later discovered that the wild ginseng worth over 100,000 yuan in the patient's home had been swapped."
"With all the incidents happening, we didn't feel like staying for dinner, so we just said goodbye and left."
These words made Yu Xiangwan and Qing Ning feel relieved.
It's fine as long as there's no conflict.
Although Yu Zhiming is kind-hearted, they also know that he can be stubborn sometimes and won't give face to anyone.
Reassured, Gu Qingning then criticized with discontent, "It was dinner time when you arrived at the patient's home."
"The patient should have invited you to dinner first. After he had enough to drink, he would ask Zhiming to do a physical examination."
"That guy is acting a bit too impatient, isn't he?"
At this time, Zhou Mo also sat down at the dining table.
She couldn't help but glance at Yu Zhiming and thought to herself, the patient really can't be blamed for this matter. It was your doctor Yu who took the initiative to ask to examine the patient first.
Yu Xiangwan considerately served Zhou Mo a bowl of turtledove soup.
"Momo, drink a bowl of soup first to warm your body."
After a pause, she asked curiously, "What happened to the wild ginseng being swapped?"
Zhou Mo drank a few mouthfuls of hot turtledove soup and felt the warmth flowing through his body, making him feel much more comfortable.
She organized her words and said slowly, "According to the agreement between the patient and Dr. Wang Wu, as long as Dr. Yu can find the cause of the patient's illness, the patient will transfer his wild ginseng collection, valued at 120,000 yuan, to Dr. Wang."
"It turned out that Dr. Yu had indeed found the location of the lesion and, as a friendly bonus, he had discovered small intestinal cancer. The patient also followed the agreement and had his son give the ginseng box to Dr. Wang."
"However, when Doctor Wang opened the brocade box containing the ginseng, he suddenly said that the wild ginseng had been replaced with garden ginseng that looked similar but was only worth a few dollars."
Gu Qingning, who was sitting next to Yu Zhiming, chuckled and said, "The wild ginseng in our collection was swapped. This kind of thing must have been done by an insider. It's very likely that someone close to him did it!"
Zhou Mo took another sip of soup, ate the dumplings in his mouth, and nodded hurriedly, "The patient is clearly furious. He must have a clue about the perpetrator."
"This is a family scandal."
"That person didn't indicate he was going to call the police, so we didn't want to get involved, so we just said goodbye and left."
"Since ancient times, it has been difficult to guard against thieves within the family."
Gu Qingning sighed and asked, "Hey, Momo, didn't Doctor Wang say that we should use that wild ginseng to make ginseng life-extending pills?"
"Now that he didn't get the ginseng, is he very disappointed?"
Zhou Mo nodded and chuckled, "It's more than just disappointment. I sighed and groaned all the way home, practically beating my chest and stamping my feet."
Gu Qingning smiled and said, "It seems that Doctor Wang Wu has high expectations and regards the Ginseng Life-Sustaining Pill very highly."
At this time, Yu Zhiming, who had been eating for a while, had already solved the physical discomfort caused by hunger.
He took a big sip of the soup and said, "This turtledove soup tastes quite fresh, even better than pigeon soup."
"Sister, Qinglime, you guys drink too."
Yu Xiangwan chuckled and said, "Qing Ning and I have already had some."
"Old Five, since you like them, why don't you keep all these turtledoves to nourish your body instead of giving half to your parents."
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "Since this is farmed, you can definitely buy it with money. There's no need to deduct the share from my parents."
He looked at Qing Ning again and said, "I can feel the pain Dr. Wang felt when he lost the wild ginseng at the last moment."
"Some wealthy people in our country have the habit of collecting precious Chinese medicinal herbs such as wild ginseng and bezoar."
"Qing Ning, use your connections and channels to ask if anyone has wild ginseng that's over fifty years old and wants to sell it."
"This wild ginseng will surely be more effective in the hands of a Chinese medicine expert like Dr. Wang."
Gu Qingning nodded and said, "I will definitely ask around. Maybe one of the elders in my Gu family has a collection of them."
Yu Zhiming reminded him again: "Don't make random promises."
"I just wanted to help Dr. Wang. Please don't drag me into this."
Gu Qingning rolled her eyes at him charmingly.
"I'm not stupid."
"Besides, I can't bear to see you suffer any more."
Gu Qingning picked up a piece of garlic pork for Yu Zhiming and said, "My grandfather's flight is around 3:00 tomorrow afternoon."
"I'm going to the airport to pick up Grandpa."
"Well, it's very likely that I won't be back tomorrow night."
Yu Zhiming said sympathetically, "Don't rush back. It's been such a long time since we last met. It's only natural that you spend more time with your old man."
Gu Qingning smiled and said, "My grandfather has so many grandchildren, he doesn't need me."
"At the latest, I will be back in the evening of the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow is Friday, and we have a dinner party."
Yu Xiangwan took over and said, "Considering that your body still needs to recover, Lao Wu, we won't go out to eat this Friday for the party."
"We cook a table of dishes ourselves and eat at home."
"That's fine." Yu Zhiming had no objection.
Anyway, he doesn't need to cook.
Ten minutes later, Yu Zhiming and Zhou Mo finished their late dinner while chatting intermittently.
Moreover, at the enthusiastic invitation of Yu Xiangwan and Qingning, Zhou Mo once again stayed at the Yu family's house.
Yu Zhiming also got used to it.
After ten o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming, who was preparing to go to bed in his bedroom, received a call from Gu Qingran.
"Zhiming, trace amounts of protein and some active ingredients were detected at the location where Cousin He had inserted the needle that you discovered."
Yu Zhiming heard Gu Qingran say in a deep voice on the phone: "Further analysis revealed that it is fresh almond juice."
"Fresh almond juice?"
Yu Zhiming repeated it, then asked, "Are you trying to cause an allergic reaction?"
Gu Qingran hummed in the phone, "It's an allergic reaction. Tomorrow, my cousin will have a special allergic reaction to fresh almonds, causing dizziness and unconsciousness."
"Her allergic reaction is only known to those close to her, which further confirms that it was that beast who did it."
"An hour ago, I received a notification from the police that the beast had been taken away by the police."
"Zhiming, thank you!"
Yu Zhiming said righteously, "There's no need to thank me for doing this kind of thing to eliminate harm for the people."
"Besides, she's Qing Ning's close cousin, so it's only right that we do something for her."
The next moment, Gu Qingran said loudly on the phone: "Zhiming, in the past few months, directly or indirectly, you have done a lot for our Gu family and Ning An. Our Gu family has benefited a lot."
"To be precise, it's not that we benefited a lot, but that we benefited a lot, and that we benefited enormously."
"For example, if it weren't for your prompt discovery, Zhiming, my grandfather might not have received timely and effective treatment."
"For another example, without you, the true fate of my cousin He would likely never be discovered."
"Just now, my grandfather, my third grandfather, my parents, my cousin He's parents, and a few other elders had a brief discussion and decided that no matter what, we must express our Gu family's gratitude to you, Zhiming."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming had a premonition that a big pie was about to hit him on the head.
Then, Gu Qingran said on the phone, "Zhiming, the loan you took from Ning'an Hospital to buy the house in Junshan Mansion will be fully taken over by our Gu family."
These words shocked Yu Zhiming.
You know, in addition to the more than 3 million he had already paid back, he still owed Ning'an Hospital nearly 8 million.
Just write it off like that?
Although, Yu Zhiming had expected that the Gu family would express something about the old man of the Gu family and what happened to cousin He last night.
But he didn't expect that the Gu family would be so generous.
This is equivalent to giving him a thank you red envelope of seven or eight million.
"Zhiming, the loan repayment agreement between you and Ning'an Hospital will be handed over to you this Saturday."
Yu Zhiming was a little confused and said, "Well, well, Dean Gu, your thank you is a bit too generous."
“I don’t even dare to accept it.”
"Why not lower it to one or two million? I'll keep it and I won't have any psychological burden."
Gu Qingran laughed heartily and said, "Why wouldn't you dare accept it? Zhiming, this is what you deserve, you have no regrets accepting it!"
"My grandfather is the head of the Gu family."
"Just the fact that you saved my grandfather's life is enough to reward us generously with a gift from the Gu family."
Yu Zhiming still felt a little uneasy and said, "Well, well, I'm a doctor, and considering the relationship between us, I should do what I do."
Gu Qingran said slowly: "Zhiming, you think it is right, but we can't just take it for granted."
"Our country has always emphasized repaying even a drop of kindness with a spring. To be honest, this level of gratitude is not a big deal for us."
"Let me tell you one more thing. If I wasn't afraid of scaring you, I wouldn't be rewarding you this much."
"So, Zhiming, just accept our severely discounted reward..."
