As if struck by lightning, Ji Ziyin's shoulders trembled uncontrollably and she struggled to get out of bed.
Ji Xiao quickly pressed her down and advised in a low voice, "Ziyin, don't be anxious. Maybe there's still a way."
Then, he anxiously asked the doctor, "Doctor Sam, her leg is very important. She can't be disabled. Do you have any other way? Money is not a problem. As long as you can treat her, it doesn't matter how much it costs!"
He was sincere this time.
After all, Ji Xiao had placed all his hopes on Ji Ziyin. His beautiful dream would be shattered if she fell.
Under such circumstances, money was the most worthless thing!
The doctor looked at his colleagues and shook his head under Ji Xiao's expectant gaze. "Sorry, we tried our best. The attacker was ruthless. They were determined to cripple her. Under such circumstances, only if a master in medicine like Zhong Yiliu helped her with the post-rehabilitation might there still be a trace of hope."
Even Zhong Yiliu only had a slight chance of turning the tables.
Even he could not make Ji Ziyin's recovery so effective that she could still run and jump like before.
The doctor gave her a death sentence. "…The few of us are inexperienced. I'm afraid we can't restore the patient to her former state."
Ji Xiao sent the doctor out.
Only Ji Ziyin and Lu Yiming were left in the ward.
Looking at Ji Ziyin's slightly trembling hand on the bed, he softly said, "Cry if you want to."
Ji Ziyin's eyes turned red as she held back her tears, and her voice was hoarse and broken. "I won't cry."
This was the first time she had spoken in two days.
Lu Yiming looked at the woman he had once fallen in love with. Unable to bear it, he stood in front of the bed and said, "I'll ask Lu Zhi if he can contact Master Zhong."
A glimmer of hope lit up in Ji Ziyin's eyes as she turned to look at him.
She was touched.
"Thank you."
"Lu Zhi's personality is strange. He might not be willing to help." Lu Yiming did not accept her gratitude. "I'll try my best to contact the Pharmacy Association, but don't get your hopes too high."
Of course, Ji Ziyin knew that there was not much hope.
The Pharmacy Association's relationship with Qiao Nian had always been good. Zhong Yiliu and Qiao Nian were even closer. Ji Ziyin was like a drowning person holding onto a life-saving straw as she said in a low voice, "I won't give up as long as there's still a trace of hope. I won't fall here. There will be a day when I get up."
She would remember all the humiliation and hurt Qiao Nian inflicted upon her!
Ji Ziyin tried to move her injured leg again, but no matter how cold her sweat was, she could not raise her leg like a normal person…
After trying again and again, she finally gave up in despair.
**
Lu Yiming tried to contact Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi asked him a few questions about Qiao Nian before hanging up.
Because Lu Zhi was unwilling to help, he could only contact Zhong Yiliu through his connections.
Zhong Yiliu rejected him without any room for negotiation upon finding out who the patient was!
Lu Yiming did everything he could think of. In the end, he chose to tell Ji Ziyin about the result.
Ji Ziyin had long expected that Zhong Yiliu would refuse to help her. It was not a surprise. But she was still in so much pain that she was unwilling to open her eyes for a long time…
