Chapter 456 The Fangirl
“Just say it. As long as you can cure Wan’er, I will promise you any conditions.”
Commander Guan patted his chest unhesitatingly. This proved his wife’s great importance in his heart.
“My condition is that you can’t tell my treatment of Mrs. Guan to others.”
Ding Ning said his condition.
“Why?”
Commander Guan was puzzled. “He has the ability to cure cancer. Isn’t this a great opportunity to become famous in the world? If it were someone else, he would be willing to talk about it everywhere. How can Ding Ning go the other way?”
“Because I will have to pay a very high price to treat cancer. That is to say, I can’t popularize and apply this method to many people.”
Ding Ning also felt very helpless because he needed to use the vitality of the Green Ivy Bead to treat cancer, but that thing could seriously damage the ecological environment. He did not want others to know that he could cure cancer. If this was found, only those cancer patients who came to his door would give him a serious headache.
This was not that he did not want to treat patients and save lives, but that before he had developed a method that could be universally used in clinical practice, exposing matters like treating cancer would only bring him endless trouble.
“Okay, no problem. I’ll keep my mouth shut.”
Although Commander Guan was a forthright soldier, he was not a man who did not know anything about the traditional code of conduct. Soon, he learned what Ding Ning meant.
Once the news of Ding Ning being able to cure cancer was spread, so many cancer patients from around the world would swarm into his home.
He had no doubt about Ding Ning’s words. “That is an incurable disease. How could one get it cured without paying a price?” Thus, he was more grateful to Ding Ning.
“As long as you can cure Wan’er, you will be my brother in the future. No matter who dares to bully you, you can tell me, and I will destroy the bully.”
Commander Guan told his heart and throwing his arm around Ding Ning’s shoulder, promised.
“Then let’s go and see Mrs. Guan’s situation now.”
Ding Ning smiled implicitly and did not take his words seriously, but he owed Ding Ning a favor. That was sure.
“Okay, okay, let’s go and see your sister-in-law now.”
Commander Guan felt so excited that he could not wait to take Ding Ning to go.
Inside Ward No. 306 on the third floor of the sanatorium, the purely white walls exuded the smell of disinfectant.
A young man and a young lady of 18 to 19-year-old were standing silently in the ward. The young man looked handsome, but his heroic dashing eyebrows were knitted tightly and his face was extremely dark, showing an extremely low mood.
The young lady was very beautiful, looking 50% similar to the young man. At the moment, her eyes were red and she was looking at the patient lying on the bed, feeling sorry for her.
Mrs. Guan was lying quietly on the hospital bed. Due to chemotherapy, her hair fell and she had become bald. Although suffering from the disease, she had become skinny, her face was sallow and bloodless, and her eyes that slanted a bit upwardly had also become dull, anyone could vaguely see that she was a stunning beauty when she was in her youth.
But her occasional intense coughs, which were like the heart-breaking coughs of a frail old man, made the girl lower her head sadly and sob softly.
After a sigh, the boy held back his sadness, patting the girl’s shoulder gently and whispering, “Shilin, don’t cry. Mom is the strongest, and she will be fine.”
“Brother, can Mom get better?”
The girl raised her head, and her snow-white oval face was already covered with tears. With eagerness and dependence in her bright eyes, she asked.
“Will, she will.”
The boy felt the pain in his heart. He knew that his sister had already known the answer, but she wanted to deceive herself and get a definitive answer from him to comfort her panic. How could he not let his sister’s wish fulfilled at this time?
“Yes, Mom will be fine.”
When the girl heard her brother’s answer, she seemed to get infinite confidence. Then, something called hope glinted in her beautiful eyes.
“Mother is so kind and strong, and G.o.d will not be so cruel to her. If there is a miracle in this world, then please let the miracle come soon.”
The girl joined her hands before her and closed her eyes to pray for her mother silently. This was the only thing she could do.
Guan Jianfeng pursed his lips tightly and lowered his eyelids. As her elder brother, he had a responsibility to rea.s.sure his sister. Naturally, he would not expose his depressed emotions, but his inner pain was not the slightest less than that of his sister.
“My father had gone to invite Great Doctor Ding, who had recently been very famous on the Internet.” Truth be told, he did not have much hope for that.
After all, cancer could not be cured by using current medical skills. Even if an operation was carried out, the patient could not live for too long. More seriously, when his mother was diagnosed with cancer, she was in the middle stage. Basically, she had been sentenced to death.
He had not seen Ding Ning’s videos on the internet, but he had read the online discussions about him, which touted him as an omnipotent miracle-working doctor. He extremely disdained that. “People can dare to say anything on the internet now!”
“My father is like a drowning man catching at a straw. He is only a young man in his early twenties. No matter how good his medical skills are, how can they be really excellent?
“It is only a trial. No matter how bad the condition is, it cannot be even worse. If my mother dies of his treatment, that can also be treated as a relief for her.”
“Jianfeng and Shilin, I invited Great Doctor Ding, and he has come. Your mother can be saved.”
Just as he was feeling dejected silently, the door of the ward was opened. Full of excitement, Commander Guan entered with Ding Ning.
Guan Shilin suddenly raised her head and stared at Ding Ning. Instantly, brilliant light bloomed like starry light in her beautiful eyes, and she suddenly covered her mouth with unbelievable joy. “Great Doctor Ding, it is Great Doctor Ding! That’s great! Mom can be saved! Mom can be saved!”
Guan Jianfeng had a bitter smile, for he knew that his sister had become Ding Ning’s fangirl since his mother was ill. Why did his father go to invite Ding Ning? Because his sister came up with this idea. Although he was not optimistic about Ding Ning’s treatment, he took one step forward and held Ding Ning’s hand as his good family education demanded. “Doctor Ding, it is so late at night, but you still come. Thank you.”
Ding Ning smiled mildly but felt a little embarra.s.sed because Guan Shilin was staring at him hotly. “I did not expect that Commander Guan has such a beautiful daughter, and she is also my fangirl.”
Commander Guan took a deep breath, stepped forward to the bed, held the hand of Lyu Mengwan, who was disturbed and opened her eyes, and having tears in his eyes, said affectionately, “Wan’er, you can be saved. Great Doctor Ding has come to treat you, and you will get better soon.”
When Lyu Mengwan looked at the undisguised affection in the eyes of her beloved man, her sallow cheeks turned unhealthily red, and she made efforts to give a sweet smile.
The feeling that her hand was held by his wide and thick hands was just like the affection that he had been spoiling her with his most love in the past more than 20 years, making her feel the warmth and have overflowing pity. “But I can’t live with you for a lifetime.”
Being a loving couple for more than 20 years, how could she not know that he loved her so much? Even if half of that love was the compensation for his regret and self-blame to her sister, she still felt happy.
Since she and the man of love and righteousness had become a couple, replaced her sister to live together with him for so many years, and also given birth to a son and a daughter for him, she was very satisfied.
Since the moment she learned that she had lung cancer, she had been mentally prepared, but every time she saw his painful look, she wanted to cry and felt so unwilling to leave him.
She strongly wanted to hold his hand and grow old with him, but unfortunately, she had to leave first. She could imagine how painful and sad he would be when she pa.s.sed away. Thinking of this, she felt sorry and sad.
She did not understand why her sister died for him without hesitation at that time. After communicating with him and understanding the tenderness and affection under his rough appearance, she realized that if she had been her sister, she would also have died for him unhesitatingly.
As a couple for more than 20 years, they could understand each other although they did not have to say anything because eye contact was enough. Tears glittered in his eyes, but Commander Guan grinned. “Wan’er, believe me. You will be fine.”
Lyu Mengwan smiled tenderly and blinked. Although she did not think that the so-called Great Doctor Ding could cure her, she did not want to see her beloved man disappointed.
Ding Ning took out his silver needles in an orderly manner and disinfected it with alcohol, but more than half of his attentiveness was his acting. However, Guan Shilin held her hands together at her chest, and her stare at him was with so high expectations, which gave him so much discomfort.
The girl’s eyes were full of admiration and expectation, which did not contain other extra emotions, but being stared at without blinking by a little beauty still gave him so much pressure.
Finally, after the silver needles were sterilized seven times, Ding Ning could not hold his acting anymore and said with a bitter smile, “Commander Guan, you two will have much time to live with love in the future. Now, please leave, and I will start to treat Mrs. Guan.”
Commander Guan blushed as he heard these words, let go of Lyu Mengwan’s hand with embarra.s.sment, and smiled shyly. “Okay, treat, quick! Brother Ding, thank you for your help.”
“Uh!”
Guan Jianfeng felt so mentally injured. “Ding Ning is one or two years older than me at most, but my father ignored that and called him brother. If so, I will have to call him uncle, right?”
Guan Shilin took a step forward and showed her small fist toward Ding Ning, with her bright big eyes full of dependence and trust. “Ningning, come on, I believe you!”
“Ningning? What does this address mean?” Commander Guan and his son looked at each other and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Ding Ning felt sullen, but facing such a cute hardcore fan, he could only give a dry smile. “I will work hard!”
Commander Guan softly rea.s.sured Lyu Mengwan again before he turned around again and again as he walked out.
As for treating the cancer, Ding Ning already had a plan in his mind. Anyway, compared with Sun Lanying’s advanced liver cancer, Mrs. Guan’s cancer was much lighter. Besides, to make it foolproof, he had deduced and simulated the treatment numerous times in his mind.
Naturally, the secret of the Green Ivy Bead could not be easily exposed, so Ding Ning immediately used the Mute Charm in the ward to prevent him from being disturbed after Commander Guan and his two children left.
Ding Ning smiled warmly at Mrs. Guan who was looking at him. “Mrs. Guan, you will get better after having a sleep.”
Before she had time to make a reply, Mrs. Guan had closed her eyes and fallen asleep.
She fell fast asleep and had a very long dream.
In the dream, she stumbled alone in the boundless desert. The scorching sunlight and the madly swirling sand in the sky made her walk difficult, her skin crack, and her chest feel heavy as if there was a boulder there, so that her breathing had even become quite difficult.
Thirsty, extremely thirsty! Her lips were cracked because of thirst, and there was a burning pain all the way from her throat to her lungs, making her feel quite hard to even swallow saliva. The strong sense of suffocation made her vitality disappear quickly.
Just as she was muzzy and about to die, the sand that permeated the sky suddenly stopped flying, and a green spot appeared in the desolation.
“Is that an oasis?” The desire for survival gave her endless strength, and she crawled on all fours toward the oasis.
10,000 meters, 1,000 meters, 100 meters, ten meters, nine meters, eight meters…
Finally, she came to the oasis. The terrible heat was gone, and the wind was refreshing. A clean spring made her heart and soul drunk, and she plunged into it to gulp.
