Chapter 114 - 114 0114 Facing

114: Chapter 0114: Facing 114: Chapter 0114: Facing Zhou Haiyan’s professional driver parked the car at Jinling Hospital, but Zhou Wenting seemed to become somewhat nervous. Before returning to the country, she thought she might be seeing her father for the last time, given his condition. However, now she had learned from her third sister that the cancer cells in their father’s body had disappeared, and he was almost ready for recovery. Zhou Wenting knew this was a different situation. “Little sister, we’re here,” Zhou Haiyan said. As the professional driver opened the door, Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Wenting got out of the car. Thinking about her father’s condition and Liu Yu being there, Zhou Wenting suddenly felt the urge to leave. Nevertheless, she was clear about her own feelings. Now that her father was recovering, which was what she had hoped for, naturally, she wanted to see him first. Following Zhou Haiyan to the door of the private room where Zhou Bao was staying, Zhou Haiyan knocked on the door, and soon, a female nurse came to open it. Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Wenting entered the room, seeing several familiar relatives inside. When those relatives greeted Zhou Wenting, she greeted them back in the same manner. Approaching the door of the room being used as a living room, Zhou Wenting could smell that familiar scent of Western medicine, although it was no longer as unpleasant. Upon entering the inner room, she saw her father resting on the hospital bed and Liu Yu sitting beside him. Liu Yu had seen Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Wenting, but she, too, didn’t know what to do. As a stepmother, she seemed to have a dishonorable side, as others thought she married Zhou Bao for his money. Yet, in her view, the time spent with Zhou Bao was based on genuine feelings. This was affection that Wang Yulian could not give to Zhou Bao. Liu Yu and Zhou Wenting nodded to each other as a form of greeting. “Your dad just fell asleep. Should I wake him?” Liu Yu asked. Since her father had already gone to sleep, she did not want to disturb Zhou Bao. Zhou Wenting simply stood by, silently observing her father’s face. She noticed he had lost a lot of weight, and now he looked like he might weigh less than seventy pounds. Those sunken eyes made it clear how severe his illness had been during this time. Zhou Wenting, seeing her father napping, chose not to wake him. After observing him for a while, she left the ward with Zhou Haiyan. Once outside the ward, Zhou Wenting said, “It’s good that father is resting. I haven’t really thought about how to face him yet.” Zhou Haiyan knew what her younger sister was thinking and said, “You have just seen dad, and his condition is almost recovered, so what are you planning to do next?” “Third sister, I still want to ask dad’s chief doctor whether this is a lie or not,” Zhou Wenting’s interest now was that her father’s cancer cells had actually vanished! She found it incredible, for she believed that once lung cancer had reached an advanced stage, the cancer cells would have spread to the lungs and other areas. Under such circumstances, for all the cancer cells to disappear was something she, as a student of Western medical knowledge, naturally found hard to believe. “You can ask Vice Director Zhou of Jinling Hospital here. As for the young doctor who treated dad and made the cancer cells disappear, he hasn’t arrived yet. They say he will come today, but I don’t know when.” If that was the case, Zhou Wenting was instead quite curious about this young doctor and how he managed to eliminate the cancer cells from her father’s body. First, let’s go find the deputy director of Jinling Hospital. Zhou Haiyan, accompanied by Zhou Wenting, arrived at the office of Deputy Director Zhou Peng and knocked on the door. Zhou Peng’s voice came from inside. Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Wenting pushed the door open and entered, Zhou Wenting did not recognize Zhou Peng, but seeing the nameplate on the desk, she knew he was Deputy Director Zhou Peng of this hospital. “Deputy Director Zhou, this is my younger sister Zhou Wenting, who just returned from abroad. She wants to know about our father’s condition.” “Oh, it’s Miss Zhou, the fourth daughter of the Zhou family; hello, my surname is also Zhou, and I am the deputy director here.” Upon hearing that she was the fourth daughter of the Zhou Dabao Jewelry Group, Zhou Peng immediately showed a smile; flattery was his strong suit, especially with influential people. Zhou Wenting extended her hand and exchanged handshakes with Zhou Peng, a brief exchange of pleasantries, and they got acquainted. She then said, “Deputy Director Zhou, I would like to understand my father’s treatment situation, preferably with his complete medical records, as I studied Western medicine specializing in internal medicine at a foreign university.” “Okay, I’ll have someone prepare them for you.” Zhou Peng picked up the landline phone in front of him, made a few calls, and said, “Miss Zhou, please wait a moment. You’ll soon have all the medical records you need, as well as your father’s examination reports and so on.” While Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Wenting were waiting, Zhou Peng personally poured tea for the two women. Of course, what made Zhou Peng happiest now was that his recommendation of Ye Qiu to treat Zhou Bao had actually saved Zhou Bao’s life. Therefore, Zhou Peng knew that the medical skills of this young man, Ye Qiu, were truly unfathomable. Last time, Zhou Peng recommended Ye Qiu as a last-ditch effort; it was the same this time. But he could be sure that Ye Qiu indeed possessed such profound medical skills. “Deputy Director Zhou, I heard that the young man who treated my father was recommended by you.” “Correct, I personally recommended him to Miss Zhou. Last time, when all the doctors at Jinling Hospital were at a loss, this young man saved the life of the vice mayor’s daughter. So, when recommending him to your elder sister, I didn’t expect him to really get Ye Qiu, and yesterday he came to treat your father in person, and after that, your father’s cancer cells completely disappeared.” So the young doctor had also treated the vice mayor’s daughter, no wonder Zhou Peng recommended him. If that was the case, Zhou Haiyan and Zhou Wenting thought this young man must be very skilled in medicine. “How old is this incredibly skilled young person?” “He is a few years younger than you, still in his senior year of high school,” Zhou Peng said. Zhou Wenting was even more surprised; she was already twenty-three years old, and that young person was even younger than her, not even twenty yet. How could this be? Zhou Wenting grew even more curious and interested. While sitting there waiting for about ten minutes, the nurse brought over all the medical records and examination reports that she had asked for regarding her father. Now Zhou Wenting sat there, carefully reviewing the medical records that detailed her father’s onset and treatment. She was very attentive, and from the records, it was clear how the cancer treatment had progressed after his lung cancer diagnosis to the current state. From the medical records and examination reports, her father’s condition was indeed very serious, especially the complications caused by lung cancer, which could have been fatal at any time. Having gone through all the X-rays and other tests, Zhou Wenting had finished reviewing everything. Zhou Peng said, “Yesterday, the hospital conducted multiple blood tests on your father, but they no longer found any cancer cells in his blood, which indicates that Ye Qiu’s treatment is indisputable.”
