Office, close the door.
"Ms. Liu, I heard from Wanqing that you were the first to make an appointnt, so it can’t be just to neuter the fat orange cat, right?"
Zhang Lingchuan inquired directly.
"Sigh... Dr. Zhang..."
Liu Xiangyi still maintained her elegant deanor in a wine-red long dress, but on closer inspection, one would notice that her overall ntal state had deteriorated significantly.
She sighed at this mont.
"Dr. Zhang, my na is Yu Feng, Taotao’s father. Thank you very much for helping our Taotao with the diagnosis last ti. Now Taotao’s test results are out. It is indeed primary chorionic cancer. The doctor’s estimate is that if left untreated, the lifespan would be less than three years, and even with treatnt, it wouldn’t exceed five years."
Yu Feng spoke directly at this mont.
His eyes carried a hint of dimness.
"Yes, I have ntioned this to Ms. Liu before."
The man bore a strong resemblance to the Yu Xiaotao Zhang Lingchuan had seen before, so without introductions, Zhang Lingchuan roughly guessed that the two were a couple.
The reason he called them into the office before the live broadcast was for this reason.
After all, if they were here about their daughter, it would be better to discuss it in the office beforehand to avoid the matter being brought up during the live broadcast.
It was clear now they indeed had other intentions for coming.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have largely repeated what he had said last ti.
"Dr. Zhang, our Taotao is only thirteen. Even if she lives five more years, she’ll only be eighteen. She hasn’t enjoyed the fullness of life, so my husband and I ca this ti hoping you could find a way to save our child, perhaps with a prescription. We’d be willing even if it ant she could live for a few more years."
Liu Xiangyi no longer concealed their purpose and stated it directly.
"Yes, Dr. Zhang, money is not an issue. As long as you’re willing to na a price, we’ll find a way to gather enough, even if we don’t have it, because our daughter is still so young, and she’s our only one. We really can’t lose her."
Yu Feng’s eyes reddened.
This is what being a parent is like.
A child is the only attachnt.
If possible, they would trade their lives.
Things like money are just external possessions.
"Sigh... I knew you ca with this intention."
Zhang Lingchuan sighed, as expected, he guessed right.
"Dr. Zhang, do you have a way?!!"
"There must be a way! After all, Dr. Zhang was able to identify Taotao’s illness; even Professor Li and others were amazed!!"
The couple’s eyes lit up after hearing Zhang Lingchuan’s words.
They thought.
Since he could identify the child’s illness with the naked eye, he must be capable!!
"You’re overthinking it. I have no way, and I’m a veterinarian, not able to prescribe dicine. I suggest you follow the doctor’s advice."
Zhang Lingchuan shook his head.
The child has late-stage chorionic cancer.
It has already spread to the lungs and brain, what can he do.
The only suggestion is to follow dical advice and strive to extend lifespan.
"Dr. Zhang! Is there really no way at all?!"
"Yes, Dr. Zhang! We’re begging you! Any advice would be appreciated! Our Taotao is still so young!"
Upon hearing Zhang Lingchuan’s words, their faces visibly turned pale.
They pleaded at the sa ti.
"Mr. Yu, Ms. Liu, I understand your feelings. How about this, bring Taotao over later, and I’ll check her pulse once more and give you so advice, okay? But I must tell you, modern dicine nowadays cannot be surpassed by traditional dicine."
Although I’m just a veterinarian.
But I also know that many people, seeing their own or a loved one’s life nearing the end, hope to change fate against all odds.
They turn to traditional dicine, hoping a soup can cure it, which isn’t very likely!
But believing in traditional dicine is sowhat better; believing in quacks, sorcery, Buddhism, theology, etc., is more absurd. Many who could live for three to five years end up living less than two years because they ss around with those things.
Hoping a soup will cure it is on par with believing in sorcery, Buddhism, and theology.
As for why I agreed to check the little girl’s pulse again.
Firstly, continuing this way not only fails to attain the desired result but also delays the upcoming live broadcast, possibly resulting in them seeking out repeatedly; hence, offering to check the pulse once more helps conclude this conversation ahead of ti, doing my utmost duty to avoid future disturbances.
Secondly, although I know a precise scan isn’t much help, I hope to use the opportunity to provide so words of advice, urging them not to seek desperate redies and to accept treatnt properly.
"Dr. Zhang! That’s wonderful! Thank you. My daughter is in the car. I’ll go bring her over for you to check her pulse again!!"
Upon hearing Zhang Lingchuan’s words, Liu Xiangyi beca very excited.
"Huh? The little girl is outside??"
Upon hearing those words, Zhang Lingchuan’s expression showed a look of great surprise.
He ant for them to start treatnt in the future, and then he could help with pulse checking.
He did not an to check the pulse right now.
"Yes, we have Taotao waiting outside. Don’t worry, Dr. Zhang; we will certainly follow your advice this ti. At the sa ti, we sincerely hope you can prescribe so dicine for her, as you were able to identify the illness, there must be a way, though we didn’t expect such a firm response from you."
