Chapter 620 Let Desire Subdue Reason
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning drove back to Zijinyuan Community.
Then, the two of them each carried a dozen cardboard boxes and took the elevator to the top floor of the residential building where they lived.
The moment the elevator door opened, Yu Zhiming saw a girl sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of his door, playing with her mobile phone with her head down.
Next to this girl, there was a thin girl with a high ponytail and a pale complexion squatting.
"Brother Zhiming..."
Yu Zhiming looked at Qi Xin, who had quickly gotten up from the ground with a smile on her face, and criticized her with a stern face: "Do you know that your parents are looking for you everywhere and are almost worried to death."
Qi Xin's face fell, revealing a pitiful expression as if he was about to cry.
"Brother Zhiming, I have no home anymore."
Yu Zhiming threw the cardboard box in his arms to the ground and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
"Nonsense, you have two homes."
"Brother Zhiming, if there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather. Similarly, if there is a stepfather, there must be a stepmother. Both homes are not my home anymore."
Yu Zhiming's heart softened, and he advised, "Don't worry about it, your parents love you."
"No matter what, let your parents know that you are safe first, so that they won't worry about you."
As he spoke, Yu Zhiming dialed Teacher Qi's number.
"Teacher, Qi Xin is waiting for me at the door."
"She's fine."
Yu Zhiming handed the phone to Qi Xin again, "Hurry up and talk to your dad."
Qi Xin didn't answer the phone. She wrinkled her nose, leaned closer to the phone, and shouted impatiently, "I'm fine, stop worrying."
After saying this, she reached out and tapped the phone screen to end the call.
Rebellious child.
Yu Zhiming muttered to himself, knowing that the teacher already knew Qi Xin was safe, so he didn't call again.
He unlocked the door using his fingerprint.
"Come in!"
"Hey, clean the dust off your butt first."
Qi Xin handed the phone in her hand to the girl with a high ponytail next to her, and then slapped her butt a few times.
Then she pulled the clothes of the girl with high ponytail and followed Qing Ning into the house.
"Brother Zhiming, your house is too small, isn't it?"
"Brother Zhiming, what are you doing with all these cardboard boxes?"
Yu Zhiming ignored the little guy and went to the bathroom to wash up first.
Qi Xin looked at Qing Ning again, and while sizing her up, she asked, "Beautiful sister, are you Brother Zhiming's girlfriend?"
Gu Qingning looked at the chattering Qi Xin and said with a smile: "You guessed right, I am Gu Qingning, your brother Zhiming's girlfriend."
"You guys sit on the sofa and take a rest first!"
"Are you thirsty?"
"Qi Xin, what would you and your friends like to drink?"
Qi Xin replied: "Fresh juice, milk, and mineral water are all fine, but no soft drinks or soda."
Lime warmed four cups of milk in the microwave...
When Yu Zhiming came out of the bathroom, he saw Qi Xin gulping down a glass of milk in a few gulps.
The girl with a high ponytail sitting next to her was holding the cup and drinking from it in small sips.
Qi Xin noticed Yu Zhiming's gaze and introduced him, "Brother Zhiming, she is a friend I met in the game hall."
"Wen Ling!"
"She's really good at catching dolls."
During Qi Xin's introduction, Wen Ling put down the cup, stood up somewhat stiffly, lowered his head, and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito.
"Hello, Dr. Yu! Sorry to bother you."
Yu Zhiming unconsciously lowered his voice, fearing that he would frighten the thin and fair girl.
"You're welcome. Thank you for accompanying Qi Xin and not letting her run around."
Qi Xin snorted unconvincedly, "Brother Zhiming, I'm already over sixteen years old. In ancient times, I could have gotten married and had children, and I wouldn't get lost running around."
After a pause, she pointed at Wen Ling again.
"Brother Zhiming, her heart isn't very good. Can you help take a look at her?"
"Is your heart not in good condition?" Yu Zhiming looked at Wen Ling.
Wen Ling lowered her head even lower.
"I have a congenital heart disease."
"Qi Xin said that you are a very good doctor and there is no disease that you cannot cure."
"I just took the liberty of following her."
Qi Xin saw Yu Zhiming's gaze on him again and smiled guiltily.
Yu Zhiming looked at Wen Ling again.
"How old are you?"
"Almost eighteen."
Qi Xin couldn't help but exclaim at this, "You're already eighteen? Two years older than me?"
"I thought you were no more than thirteen or fourteen."
"Hey, I called you sister several times, why didn't you correct me?"
Wen Ling blushed and explained, "My heart isn't very good, and my physical development is a little delayed."
Yu Zhiming asked again, "Wen Ling, congenital heart disease is best treated the sooner it's treated. Why did you wait until now?"
Wen Ling whispered, "My parents both work and don't have enough money for my surgery."
"The doctor also said that the surgery was quite risky."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and said, "Well, let me check you out."
He asked Wen Ling to lie on the sofa, put on surgical gloves, and examined her heart.
The test results were not good.
Wen Ling has a congenital heart defect. The shape of her heart is not normal, but resembles an ugly green apple.
Not only that, Yu Zhiming also found that there was a defect in her ventricular septum, and her left atrium and left ventricle were obviously smaller.
Moreover, the coronary arteries are somewhat tortuous.
Qi Xin noticed Yu Zhiming's heavy expression and couldn't help asking, "Brother Zhiming, is the situation bad?"
Yu Zhiming replied frankly, "Wen Ling has a heart defect. Her condition can only be treated through surgery."
"I'm an internist. I can't perform such a complex heart deformity correction surgery."
Qi Xin said again: "Brother Zhiming, you know a lot of capable doctors, can you ask them for help?"
this……
Yu Zhiming saw Wen Ling clenching her fists and looking at him with some nervousness and anticipation, and sighed softly.
"Of course you can."
"However, this heart deformity correction surgery is always very risky. If the surgery fails, your life will be gone."
"Also, the surgery fee is quite high..."
Having said this, Yu Zhiming noticed that the light in Wen Ling's eyes dimmed quickly.
This made Yu Zhiming feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Qi Xin continued, "Brother Zhiming, how much will the surgery cost? Is 300,000 enough?"
"You have three hundred thousand?" Yu Zhiming heard the implication in Qi Xin's words.
Qi Xin nodded vigorously and said, "Brother Zhiming, I have been preparing for the arrival of my stepfather and stepmother."
"Over the years, I've saved all my lucky money, pocket money, and the money I received on my birthday and holidays."
"I have to give a compliment to my parents. They are very generous to me and have helped me save over 300,000 yuan so far."
Qi Xin once again looked sad and generous, saying, "I originally thought that after my mother remarried, I would come out and live alone."
"If I save a little bit of the 300,000 yuan, it should be enough to support me through high school and college."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming didn't know what to say.
It seems that the divorce between Teacher Qi and Researcher Xie left a deep shadow on Qi Xin, which made her prepare for independent living so early.
Yu Zhiming sighed and continued, "In Wen Ling's case, the cost of surgery is secondary. The most important thing is the risk of the surgery."
He then said to Wen Ling, "Come with me into the bedroom. I'll give you another thorough examination, map out your heart problems, and help you consult a heart specialist."
Next, Yu Zhiming brought Wen Ling and Qi Xin into the bedroom.
The moment the bedroom door closed, Qi Xin exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, it's so quiet. I feel a sense of loneliness, as if I've been abandoned by the whole world."
Yu Zhiming ignored Qi Xin, let Wen Ling lie on the bed, and examined her again.
This time, he spent twelve minutes not only carefully examining Wen Ling's heart, but also conducting a comprehensive examination of her body.
The good news is that although Wen Ling's other internal organs are too fragile and insufficient compared to his peers, they can still support his body to complete a major heart surgery.
Next, Yu Zhiming kicked Qi Xin and Wen Ling out of the bedroom. He sat at his desk and drew a three-dimensional perspective diagram of Wen Ling's heart on an A4 paper...
This devoted drawing took him nearly three hours, and he didn't leave the bedroom until nearly eight o'clock in the evening.
Yu Zhiming met his fourth sister who had returned, and teacher Qi Yue who had come specially.
"Teacher, you are here."
Qi Yue stood up and hummed, then sighed, "Qi Xin is such a troublesome child, and I've made you worry about her too."
He reached out and took the perspective drawing from Yu Zhiming's hand, took a look at it, and couldn't help but praise it.
"Lifelike! Every detail is clear! This is much clearer and more intuitive than a 4D color image or a cardiac angiogram."
"But this heart aberration..."
Qi Yue looked at the perspective drawing carefully again, glanced at Wen Ling who was sitting quietly on the sofa, and sighed again.
"This operation is not easy."
Qi Yue pondered and said, "Our Huashan cardiac surgery department isn't particularly strong. Perhaps Dr. Lou Xinghua, known as the best thoracic surgeon at Bin University Affiliated Hospital, would dare to take on this operation."
Dr. Lou, the top thoracic surgeon at Binhai University Affiliated Hospital.
Yu Zhiming remembers him.
During the emergency mission to treat Minister Daxiong that night, I had a brief contact with Dr. Lou.
At this time, Qi Xin came over and wanted to see the perspective view, but was rolled up by Qi Yue.
"You'll have nightmares if you watch this."
Qi Yue threatened his daughter and then said to Yu Zhiming, "Qi Xin's recklessness caused the Wen Ling incident. You don't need to worry about it."
"I will take responsibility to the end."
Yu Zhiming hummed, then whispered, "Teacher, Qi Xin has saved more than 300,000 yuan..."
Qi Yue said with a look of self-blame: "I also knew it just now."
"I am not a responsible father. I neglected my children's feelings for my own selfish reasons."
"It's just that time can't go back."
"Zhiming, you should take me as an example. You must be cautious and prudent in matters of the heart, and make sure your desires yield to your reason."
Yu Zhiming nodded obediently, but thought in his heart, Teacher, you change so quickly.
He still clearly remembered that when he first came to Huashan Hospital for the assessment, Teacher Qi said with great enthusiasm that desire is the source of motivation for progress.
Qi Yue held up the heart X-ray diagram and said to Qi Xin, "It's getting late. Let's send Wen Ling back together."
"You come home with me too."
Qi Xin stiffened his neck and said, "I'm not going back!"
"I don't have a home anymore..."
At the beginning of the month, several guaranteed monthly tickets will be used for support!!!
