Chapter 231 Disabled Dog
The dog in the young man's arms was grunting softly, and was dying. Its two hind legs were draped weakly over his arms. There was no blood, but the condition was worse than if it were bleeding.
"The situation is very bad. We need to prepare for surgery immediately," Yu Zhan said to Sun Weiwei. "Can you do me a favor? If any guests with reservations come by later, tell them to wait a moment."
Sun Weiwei nodded, "Okay."
"Wait, I want to ask, how much does the treatment cost?" The young man said, "I just started working and I only have 4,500 yuan in my salary card. Just now, the front desk of a pet hospital said that in this case, they will charge 15,000."
"1,500 is enough for me," Yu Zhan said, and immediately went into the surgery room to prepare for the surgery.
The young nurse took the dog from the young man and asked him to wait outside.
When Ye Ziliang saw his anxious look, he couldn't help but think of the scene when Liu Lan rescued Yue Guang that night.
Tao Zhiyao's camera was aimed at the young man's face. His eyes were a little red. He embarrassedly covered his face with his hands and said, "Don't shoot this part."
After a moment of silence, the young man rubbed his eyes, trying to wipe away the tears. He whispered, "I don't think it will survive. It's a stray dog in the neighborhood where I rent a house. I usually call it Dahuang. Every time I call Dahuang's name, it will come running over with its tail wagging. I bought dog food and feed it every day. I also made a small nest for it in the corridor with cardboard boxes and old clothes."
...
...
"Every morning when I go to work, it would wag its tail to send me off. When I get off work in the evening, it would squat at the door to pick me up. Today when I went out and I didn't see it, I had a bad feeling in my heart. I looked for it everywhere and only found it at the gate of the community. It had been abandoned in the green belt, and its hind legs were already like this."
"You've done the best you can, don't blame yourself," Sun Weiwei said.
"But watching a life I had lived with day and night leave this world in such pain, I felt really bad."
The young man's kindness moved the three people present.
Tao Zhiyao's nose also felt a little sour, and she said to Ye Ziliang,
"I'm going to film Yu Zhan's surgery."
Tao Zhiyao put on a green sterile suit, a mask and a cap before entering the operating room.
Yu Zhan and the young nurse both noticed her entry, but they did not pause at all in their work and did not even look at her.
On the operating table, the puppy's lower body had been cut open by Yu Zhan, and it was a bloody mess. Tao Zhiyao couldn't bear to watch it, so she only took a picture of the puppy's face with its eyes closed after it was anesthetized.
Tao Zhiyao stayed in the operating room for only five minutes before coming out. At this time, Liu Lan had just arrived.
As soon as she came in, she noticed that the atmosphere was quite solemn.
Tao Zhiyao looked at her and sighed, "I can understand how you felt when you saved Yue Guang. This gentleman just brought a dog whose hind legs were run over by a car for treatment. Yu Zhan is performing surgery now."
Liu Lan looked at the silent, worried young man and said to him, "You have to trust Dr. Yu. He will definitely be able to save your dog."
The young man looked into her eyes and nodded slightly.
Another half an hour passed before the door of the operating room was opened. Liu Lan saw the nurse push a small bed to another room opposite. Having had relevant experience, she immediately said to others, "The dog is fine!"
Sure enough, Yu Zhan came over and said to the young man, "This dog has only been saved temporarily, but its hind legs have been crushed. I can only amputate it."
"That's great," the young man couldn't hold back his tears any longer after more than an hour, and burst into tears of joy. "As long as Da Huang can survive, I will bring it into the house to take care of it, and will never let it be bullied outside again."
Yu Zhan patted his shoulder, silently comforting him.
This scene was recorded entirely by Tao Zhiyao with a camera.
The young man finally paid 1,500 yuan for the surgery, and he asked Yu Zhan if there were any follow-up fees.
Yu Zhan told him that 1,500 included all expenses and he didn't need to pay any extra money. Once the dog's condition stabilized, he could come and take it home.
"Thank you, thank you," the young man felt that other words seemed pale and powerless except thank you.
