1600 The Divine Doctor Of That Year
“I’ll go back now. If there’s anything, just call me directly.” Yang Ming did not stay any longer. As he had given the books to Shen Yuxi, he was ready to leave.
Although Shen Yuxi was a little reluctant, she also knew that Yang Ming was very busy every day. It was not easy for him to find the time to visit her. So, she pursed her lips and did not say anything to keep him, “Yang Ming, I will study hard.”
She was a smart girl. She knew that there were too many obstacles between her and Yang Ming. So, she would not readily reveal her feelings. She understood that Yang Ming brought so many books to her out of sympathy, hoping that she could occupy herself and find the strength to carry on.
In fact, Shen Yuxi had already accepted the reality of her situation. She would not be so stupid to consider suicide or other such options. Even in her current situation, she would realize her dreams through her own efforts!
When I am dead, what will happen to my parents? Shen Yuxi would not do such a stupid thing.
So, she expressed her determination to Yang Ming, which was what Yang Ming wanted to see.
“En, I have already talked to Bao Sanli.” Yang Ming nodded and smiled. “You don’t have to finish all the books before going to work. You can go to work when you think you are ready.
“You can stay in the company or stay here. Bao Sanli will arrange a special car to pick you up every day. You can learn on the job.”
“Thank you, Yang Ming.” Shen Yuxi was very touched. Although Yang Ming might only be sympathetic to her, it was enough.
Yang Ming walked out of the dilapidated neighborhood where Shen Yuxi’s house was, and sighed as he looked up at the bright sky. He had no solution for Shen Yuxi’s condition. It wasn’t just him; even the hospital doctors had no solution.
Yang Ming thought of his G.o.dfather Liu Weishan. Liu Weishan was highly prestigious in academic circles, and he was also familiar with the famous neurosurgeon Zhong Hanlin. Maybe G.o.dfather knows some expert neurologists?
Yang Ming had not thought about this matter when he was eating earlier. Now that he remembered it, Yang Ming took out his phone and hurriedly dialed Liu Weishan’s number. There was no other reason. Yang Ming just felt that Shen Yuxi was too pitiful. She should not suffer from all this at her age. She should instead be experiencing happiness and romance at this age.
“Yang Ming? We just finished eating together. Why are you calling G.o.dfather now?” Liu Weishan was thinking about Professor w.a.n.g’s matter in the office. Professor w.a.n.g definitely could not be the Department Head, but he was considering whether he should demote Professor w.a.n.g from the deputy head’s position.
Liu Weishan was in a dilemma. If he demoted Professor w.a.n.g, it would appear as a case of personal hatred. After all, his conflict with Professor w.a.n.g was private. However, if he did not demote Professor w.a.n.g, this person’s character was really hard to accept.
But after all, Professor w.a.n.g had been the Deputy Head for so many years. If Liu Weishan demoted him all of a sudden, Professor w.a.n.g would lose face. Forget it then, let Professor w.a.n.g be a Deputy Investigator. It has a similar status to a Deputy Head. This would be considered as giving him some face.
“G.o.dfather, I would like to ask you, do you know any expert neurologists?” asked Yang Ming.
“What? Yang Ming, why did you suddenly ask this?” Liu Weishan was a little puzzled, knowing that Yang Ming would not be interested in this out of the blue.
“This is the case. I have a friend who jumped down from upstairs and damaged the nerves supplying her legs. Now, she can not feel anything in her lower body and can not walk. I want to see if I can help her find a solution.” Yang Ming did not beat about the bush and directly stated his purpose.
“Oh? That’s it… I remember. A while ago, wasn’t a girl in your company forced to jump off a building by several punks? Her name is Shen, right?” Liu Weishan had read about this in the newspaper.
“Shen Yuxi, that’s her.” Yang Ming did not expect his G.o.dfather to remember her name.
“En, I don’t know much about the field of medicine. I will call my old friend, Zhong Hanlin. He is a leading figure in the field of medicine. I can ask him.” said Liu Weishan. “Yang Ming, wait for my call. I will call him now.”
“Okay, G.o.dfather.” Yang Ming hung up the phone. In any case, he must do his utmost, and only after he had done his best would he not have any regrets.
Yang Ming drove toward the villa. He had not contacted Zhao Ying for several days. He had promised to accompany her on the spring outing… Maybe this would be his last spring outing.
Yang Ming was unsure in his heart. He did not know if he could return safely from Yunnan. So, this time would be considered as a showdown with Zhao Ying.
It did not take long for Yang Ming to reach home. Yang Ming had just turned on his computer to connect to the Internet when Liu Weishan called him back.
“Hey, G.o.dfather.” Yang Ming quickly answered the phone.
“Yang Ming, I talked with Zhong Hanlin about Shen Yuxi’s case. But, Old Zhong said that Western medicine is often unable to treat neurological problems,” said Liu Weishan. “But, in traditional Chinese medicine, there is a theory about meridians. If the meridians are not flowing smoothly, it will lead to the current situation. The best treatment is acupuncture.”
“Acupuncture?” Yang Ming froze for a moment. Why didn’t I think of acupuncture? Yeah, the nerves were known as meridians in traditional Chinese medicine. Acupuncture has amazing curative effects. It seemed that I took the wrong approach from the start believing that only surgery could solve the problem.
“Yes,” said Liu Weishan. “Acupuncture is the only hope left.”
“G.o.dfather, can Professor Zhong introduce me to a powerful expert in traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture?” Yang Ming did not know much about this.
“There are some amazing people. The best known acupuncturist in the country is Therapist Lin Dongfang. But, he hasn’t appeared in the public sight for ten years, and no one knows where he went. If he helped, Shen Yuxi would be able to recover completely under his treatment. Actually, it would not be a problem at all! During that year, there was a person whose meridians suffered trauma and were servers, but he gradually recovered Divine Doctor Lin’s treatment.” Liu Weishan sighed. “I heard this name ten years ago, but it’s been years since then… ”
“Recluse?” Yang Ming was startled and a little disappointed.
“I don’t know. No one knows this,” said Liu Weishan. “We can’t always figure out the thoughts of these experts. At that time, Divine Doctor Lin was at the peak of fame and fortune but he suddenly disappeared. Even a person like me who is indifferent to fame and fortune can’t do what he did, disappearing completely from sight… ”
“In that case…” Yang Ming sighed. “It seems that it will be difficult to find Divine Doctor Lin…”
“But, don’t be discouraged. During that time, there was a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine that knew Divine Doctor Lin and was guided by him. He is famous now. Although not as famous as Divine Doctor Lin at that time, he is also an acupuncture expert,” said Liu Weishan. “Old Zhong recommended him to me. I met this person a few times, and he is not far from us.”
