Chapter 686 Internal Agreement
On Thursday morning, Yu Zhiming woke up from his sleep and reached out to take the mobile phone from the bedside table.
Turn on the phone screen and check the text messages and call logs.
There are no unread messages or missed calls about Ning An.
Yu Zhiming breathed a sigh of relief.
No news is good news, which means Meng Fan successfully survived the first night.
Yu Zhiming got up on time as usual, washed, exercised, had breakfast, and went to work with Zhou Mo...
Yu Zhiming spent half of the morning at the hospital in the gynecology department. He performed pregnancy examinations on thirteen pregnant women with multiple births.
They were the group of pregnant women who successfully conceived when Yu Zhiming underwent embryo transplantation years ago. Today, long enough time has passed to find out how many gestational sacs they have.
After some examination, Yu Zhiming found that seven of the thirteen pregnant women with multiple fetuses needed fetal reduction surgery.
Just like in Ning'an Hospital, in the end only three people accepted the advice after discussing with their families.
One person will have two fewer babies, and two people will have one fewer baby.
Yu Zhiming personally performed fetal reduction surgery on these three people...
At lunchtime, Ding Ye invited Yu Zhiming and Zhou Mo to eat luxurious takeout in a lounge in the gynecology building.
Halfway through lunch, Ding Ye suddenly said, "Doctor Yu, just in case, I froze my eggs."
"If I haven't found a boyfriend who satisfies me and is compatible with me by the age of 36, I will become a single mother and raise my own child."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Thirty-six? For someone who's been over thirty for who knows how many years, that's not much time left."
"Doctor Ding, time is short and the task is heavy. You need to take the initiative and work hard."
Ding Ye glared at him and sighed, "The profession of doctor is really not friendly to girls!"
"Once my job is a little more stable and independent, I'll be in my thirties. The blooming years will be over, and most high-quality men of the same age will have families and children."
Zhou Mo chuckled and said, "Doctor Ding, you have your own career, you don't need a stinky man at all."
"I strongly support you in having and raising your own child. This is also my future plan."
Yu Zhiming snorted softly and said, "Our country already has more men than women. You two shouldn't make things worse."
"Doctor Ding, don't ask for too much. If all else fails, just make do with Du Bing."
"I think that guy is just okay except for his personality, which is much worse than mine. The most important thing is that he is deeply in love with you. You can control him."
Ding Ye glared at Yu Zhiming again and snorted, "Zhou Mo is absolutely right. I don't need to rely on you men, so why should I compromise myself?"
"This beauty would rather be alone than be without someone else."
Yu Zhiming grinned and said, "Doctor Ding, when you go to my engagement party on that day, you must dress yourself up nicely."
"Why are you dressing up so beautifully? Are you trying to steal the limelight from your fiancée?" Ding Ye was a little confused.
Yu Zhi understood her and said, "Where do you get the confidence to steal the limelight from my Qing Ning?"
Seeing Ding Ye raise his fist, Yu Zhiming said hurriedly: "That day, there will definitely be many young talents coming to the Gu family."
"The Gu family has a good family background and upbringing. Doctor Ding, seize the opportunity and don't say I didn't warn you."
Ding Ye's eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "It's indeed a great opportunity. Doctor Yu, don't worry, I will definitely dress up and show up that day to charm everyone."
Zhou Mo didn't forget to promote her, "Sister Ding, I think you have a classical and graceful temperament. Why don't you try my Chinese-style dress? I guarantee you'll be stunning."
Yu Zhiming said bluntly: "Don't bother trying to sell it, she can't afford it."
Ding Ye got angry and said unconvincedly, "How expensive is this dress? I'm an attending physician, and I can't afford it?"
"Sixty-eight thousand per set!" Yu Zhiming used facts to hit people.
Ding Ye immediately wilted.
"It's so expensive? I really can't afford it."
"My monthly salary is only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and I have to prepare more expenses for studying abroad."
Zhou Mo quickly explained, "Sister Ding, 68,000 is the price of the most high-end dress that Doctor Yu bought for Qing Ning."
"We have other grades of dresses too, the cheapest is only two or three thousand yuan a set."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Zhou Mo, since your family has much cheaper dresses, why didn't you sell me the cheaper one at that time?"
Zhou Mo replied seriously, "One reason is that you're rich and can afford it. The second reason is that you're willing to buy Qing Ning a second-rate dress."
this……
Yu Zhiming was choked for a moment...
Around noon, Yu Zhiming, who had taken a twenty-minute nap on the stretcher, returned to the large office and found a middle-aged couple waiting for him.
"Hello, Dr. Yu!"
The middle-aged man of medium height and thick lips introduced himself politely, "I'm Dong Lijun, and I was introduced by Dr. Cao Zhe's wife, Ms. Jin."
"Thank you for your hard work and concern this time, Doctor Yu."
Yu Zhiming said indifferently: "Come with me to the examination room and have a physical examination first..."
In the examination room, Yu Zhiming, accompanied by Zhou Mo, completed the physical examination of Dong Lijun, with a frown on his face.
He said bluntly, "Mr. Dong, you have mid-stage gastric cancer and there has been no metastasis yet."
"In your case, according to traditional treatment plans, the cure rate is conservatively over 50%. There is really no need to come to me for treatment."
Dong Lijun chuckled and said, "There's still a 50% chance of treatment failure and recurrence."
"Doctor Yu, you can even cure advanced cancer with metastasis, so treating my mid-stage gastric cancer is no problem at all."
"I came to you for treatment mainly to seek peace of mind and assurance that nothing will go wrong."
Yu Zhiming resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said, "Mr. Dong, my cancer treatment plan is still in the trial treatment and data collection stage. There is not enough convincing evidence to show that it can cure advanced cancer."
Dong Lijun smiled and said, "Doctor Yu, I know that your treatment plan is still in the experimental stage."
"However, I already know that the first patient with advanced cancer who underwent the trial successfully eliminated all cancer cells."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but mutter in his heart, this news spread really fast, it really caused trouble.
Dong Lijun added, "I am very aware of your abilities, Doctor Yu. You are capable of things that others cannot achieve."
"I'll be at ease if I accept your treatment."
Yu Zhiming was somewhat speechless and continued to dissuade him, "Mr. Dong, thank you for your trust. However, given your current condition, there is really no need for you to receive excessive treatment from me."
"My treatment plan carries a significant risk of fatality. Those patients with advanced cancer have no other options, so they have to take a gamble with me."
At this point, Yu Zhiming noticed a hesitation on Dong Lijun's face, and he continued, "The important point is that my treatment plan is very expensive."
"The minimum cost is three million!"
"Three million?!"
Dong Lijun's wife, who had been quietly accompanying him, exclaimed in surprise and quickly asked, "Doctor Yu, didn't they say that treatment at Huashan Hospital is free?"
"Those who don't have the connections to get treatment are forced to go to Hospice and pay exorbitant prices for treatment."
Yu Zhiming explained: "Only the advanced cancer patients we selected ourselves and who met the trial criteria will receive free treatment."
"For patients who come to us on their own initiative, the treatment is not free and they need to bear all the treatment costs themselves."
"You may also be aware that CAR-T treatment alone will cost 1.2 million."
Dong Lijun and his wife exchanged a look of embarrassment, then asked, "Doctor Yu, has this rule been in place since the beginning?"
Yu Zhiming said vaguely, "This is an internal agreement within our project team. This is a multi-million dollar treatment, and we want to prevent anyone from using it for personal gain."
Although he said this, Yu Zhiming secretly admired himself for being a well-deserved genius who came up with such a good idea on a whim.
For Yu Zhiming, this so-called internal agreement was just a matter of a word.
This newly-made agreement takes into account both personal feelings and fairness.
Patients like Dong Lijun, who came through connections and do not meet the trial requirements, should pay for their treatment themselves.
The more Yu Zhiming thought about it, the more he felt that this idea he came up with on a whim was indeed very good.
"Doctor Yu, three million is not a small amount. We need to consider it seriously."
Yu Zhiming said with understanding, "That's what we should do. Three million is not something an ordinary family can afford."
"Mr. Dong, considering your condition, I still recommend traditional treatment. It's not only mature and effective, but also doesn't carry the fatal risks of gambling on luck."
After a pause, he added pressure, "I'll give you half an hour to discuss this."
"I await your final decision."
After saying this, Yu Zhiming led Zhou Mo out of the examination room and carefully closed the door for them.
Yu Zhiming wanted to leave, but was stopped by Zhou Mo.
She lowered her voice and said, "Doctor Yu, I feel that these two people don't seem to have a close relationship with Cao Yiyi's mother."
"How about we listen to what they say?"
"Isn't this bad?"
Yu Zhiming said this, but his body was honest and he reached out and pressed on the door of the examination room.
The next moment, Dong Lijun's wife's voice came clearly into Yu Zhiming's mind through the door and his arm.
"Sister Jin, didn't you say before that the treatment would be free?"
"But Dr. Yu told us directly that people like my husband who were treated through connections need to pay for their own treatment."
"Sister Jin, this is three million, not three hundred thousand."
"Add to that your one million yuan referral fee, Sister Jin, and we can't afford that much money."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming's expression turned cold and chilling.
Dong Lijun's wife's voice rang out again, "Will you help us clear the blockage?"
"Sister Jin, you have to hurry up. Doctor Yu only gave us half an hour to think about it."
"What? Don't worry about time, you'll figure it out?"
