Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 149: Chapter 148: A Grand Gamble

”Brother Long, let’s talk this out, let’s talk this out!” Gou Yangqing felt intense fear and anxiety, ”We’re all friends, there’s no need to go this far, right?”

Zhao Dalong sighed lightly, ”Yes, your father Gou Shengli is the chairman of Gou’s Mining. Gou’s Mining is like a towering giant tree in our eyes.”

”We have a lot of respect for your Gou Family. After all, just a single leaf falling from your tree can make us a lot of money.”

”But, you shouldn’t have disrespected Mister Xu!”

”You may bring many benefits to us, but in the world of the underworld, loyalty is far more important than money!”

”A man without trust cannot stand!”

Gou’s Mining might be a giant, but in Zhao Dalong’s eyes, it still weighed less than Xu Wendong. Gou Yangqing offended Xu Wendong, and he had to pay the price.

”Orthopedic Hospital, I want to go to the Orthopedic Hospital!” Gou Yangqing ultimately made his choice. Although he really didn’t want to choose, he knew that once he was in the ICU, it was like having one foot in the underworld.

So, he could only choose the Orthopedic Hospital. At least he could save his life.

Just like that, Gou Yangqing was sent to the Orthopedic Hospital, and then Zhao Dalong kicked him off.

”Doctor, doctor, save me!”

”I think my legs can still be saved.” Gou Yangqing’s legs were bleeding, and he shouted loudly at the doctors.

The doctors, hearing this, hurriedly carried Gou Yangqing into the hospital, performed an examination, and then said, ”Your legs are severely fractured. The best solution right now is surgery.”

”Doctor, if I undergo surgery, can I fully recover?” Gou Yangqing’s face was pale, and his eyes were full of tension. He feared hearing bad news and feared spending the rest of his long life in a wheelchair.

Doctor: ”We will try our best to reconnect your broken bones, but whether you can fully recover depends on your personal recovery.”

Although he didn’t give a direct answer, Gou Yangqing’s heart was filled with despair. He knew there was a high probability he would spend his life in a wheelchair...

The doctor changed the subject, ”Didn’t your family come with you? Quickly call your family. After all, surgery requires a family member’s signature.”

Not until then did Gou Yangqing think of his father. He immediately took out his phone and called his father. When the call connected, he cried aggrievedly, ”Dad, I’m in the Orthopedic Hospital. My legs have been crippled by someone. Come quickly!”

”What? This happened?” Gou Shengli was so surprised upon learning his son was beaten that he immediately rushed to the Orthopedic Hospital. At the same time, he also contacted Dean Wang Yudong of the Orthopedic Hospital.

Upon arrival, Wang Yudong was already there waiting.

It wasn’t because Gou Shengli was well-connected, but mainly because his own elder had necrosis of the femoral head and had previously been treated here, so he was acquainted with Wang Yudong.

Wang Yudong inquired about Gou Yangqing’s condition, then immediately consulted with a few experts to discuss the most secure treatment plan. At the same time, Gou Shengli also learned from his son how he had been beaten.

”Deserved, you had it coming!” Gou Shengli flew into a rage after finding out, ”I’ve told you time and again, be honest and straightforward, but look at you, arrogant because of some stinking money at home, not to mention hanging out with those punks. Do you think they only have eyes for money?”

”Dad, I’m already in this state. Can you stop scolding me? Am I really your son?” Gou Yangqing looked aggrieved.

Gou Shengli snorted coldly and didn’t speak, gloomily smoking a cigarette.

Even though smoking was prohibited in the hospital, he still had some privileges.

A moment later, Wang Yudong came in with some doctors from the hospital, and said to Gou Shengli, ”Mr. Gou, after our discussion, the best treatment plan is surgery.”

Gou Shengli asked, ”Will he fully recover after the surgery?”

Wang Yudong shook his head, ”There’s only a ten percent probability of full recovery, and even if he does recover, it will be very long.”

This answer was like a bolt from the blue for both Gou Shengli and his son, making it hard for them to accept.

After pondering for a moment, Gou Shengli said, ”Dean Wang, do you think traditional Chinese medicine can cure my son’s broken leg without surgery?”

At this moment, he thought of Xu Wendong.

He thought of his miraculous medical skills.

And his ability to foresee and influence life and death outcomes.

Upon hearing this.

Wang Yudong was stunned, obviously not expecting such a question from Gou Shengli.

The doctors behind him whispered to each other.

Wang Yudong said, ”Mr. Gou, I also studied traditional Chinese medicine for a few years. I don’t deny that traditional Chinese medicine has its merits in certain areas. However, your son’s injuries are too severe for traditional Chinese medicine to cure. On the contrary, it will delay the best treatment time.”

Gou Shengli asked again, ”Dean Wang, do you think my father’s illness can recover?”

Wang Yudong didn’t know why Gou Shengli asked such a question but still answered, ”Your father’s illness has reached the late stage. Although there is a possibility of recovery, the chance is one in ten thousand.”

Gou Shengli suddenly laughed, ”Yes, I also thought my father would spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. But, now my father can walk on the ground.”

”What? Grandpa can walk on the ground?” Gou Yangqing was astonished.

Gou Shengli said angrily, ”Last night I called you to come home to tell you this good news, but you were out messing around with others!”

Gou Yangqing shamefully lowered his head, ”I was thinking of finding suitable candidates to continue our family’s lineage.”

Wang Yudong was shocked, ”Elder Master Gou can walk again?”

Gou Shengli smiled and said, ”Although this sounds like a fantasy, it’s true. That person only gave my father a ten-minute massage, and my father left the wheelchair, walking swiftly. According to him, walking is exceptionally smooth!”

Wang Yudong felt it was extremely incredible, even like a fantasy, but he did not think that Gou Shengli would lie. Taking a deep breath, he said, ”So, are you planning to give up the surgery and take a gamble?”

Gou Shengli looked at his son lying on the hospital bed, and said, ”Instead of a mere ten percent chance of recovery, it’s better to take a gamble with that person.”

Gou Shengli was very rational. He knew that while the surgery might reduce his son’s pain, it was very likely to hinder Xu Wendong’s subsequent treatment.

Just like that, Gou Yangqing left the Orthopedic Hospital by hospital ambulance, heading directly to Villa No. 95, only to learn that Xu Wendong was not at home.

So he returned home, but Lin Yiren took note of Gou Shengli’s phone number, promising to call him as soon as Xu Wendong returned.

After waiting at home for more than three hours, he was informed that Xu Wendong had returned.

Gou Shengli personally pushed his pale-faced, almost-fainting-from-pain son to seek medical help.

It wasn’t long after ringing the doorbell that Xu Wendong came out wearing slippers, eating a watermelon.

The moment he saw Xu Wendong, Gou Yangqing screamed, his eyes full of rage, ”Dad, the reason I got beaten up and crippled, it’s all because of this damn bastard!”
