Chapter 585

~7 min read 1,360 words

Brother, come home tonight, I have something to discuss with you.

What can't be said over the phone?

This matter is rather complicated; better to discuss it when you come back!

Alright!

Chen Yang was quite curious how his cousin Zhao Qian would suddenly look for him. Since Li Zhe started dating, only during holidays could he receive her greeting calls.

After finishing his talk with Lan Qiyun, Chen Yang drove straight to Sunflower Garden Community.

While taking the elevator in the underground parking garage, he happened to see Chen Bing and his wife anxiously carrying their son out.

Bing Ge, sister-in-law, where are you headed?

My father-in-law had a sudden heart attack and was hospitalized; we're going to check on him.

Which hospital?

Dongjiang Medical University Affiliated Hospital. Your younger sister seems to be a student there too, right? Could you ask her to help find a good doctor?

Our company has a long-term cooperation with Dongjiang Medical University. You go ahead; I'll call their leadership later.

Okay, then I'll trouble you." Chen Bing thanked him, then hurriedly drove with Zhong Lin and their child to Dongjiang Medical University Affiliated Hospital.

Chen Yang took the elevator to the Zhao family's residence, but instead of going in, he called the president of Dongjiang Medical University Affiliated Hospital, Wang Chenghuang, from the hallway.

President Wang, hello. I have a favor to ask.

Director Chen, just say it; we don't need to be too polite between us.

It's like this: a friend's father-in-law just had a sudden heart attack and was admitted to your hospital. Could you help arrange a good doctor for him?

No problem. What's the patient's name?

I'm not sure either; I only know the surname is Zhong.

Alright, I'll check right away if there's any patient surnamed Zhong in the cardiothoracic surgery department.

Then I'll trouble you with that!

Director Chen, since you're willing to generously support our hospital, this small matter is nothing.

Support???

Yeah, didn't Zhao Qian tell you?

Oh, she mentioned it in passing, but I just ran into a sudden situation here and haven't had a chance to ask for details.

Like that, then you talk to Zhao Qian first. I'll go handle your friend's matter on my end.

Okay, thank you, President Wang!

After Chen Yang hung up the phone, he suddenly understood why Zhao Qian had asked him to come to her place to talk. He guessed she had been bragging at the hospital, saying she could get sponsorship from him. But she was afraid that if he refused, she would lose face in front of her classmates and coworkers.

At that moment, the Zhao family's door suddenly opened, and Chen Chunmei hurried out from inside, her face tense as she asked:

"Chen Yang, who were you just talking to on the phone? I heard that someone's father-in-law had a heart attack."

"Aunt, it's Zhong Lin's father who was hospitalized due to a heart disease, coincidentally at the hospital where Qian Qian is interning. I called their director, hoping he could look after him."

"Old Zhong? Then we should go see him too."

Chen Chunmei and Chen Bing's home are upstairs and downstairs neighbors; they often visit each other when free, and she has also met Zhong Lin's father several times.

Of course, the main reason is that the person is Zhong Lin's father. When Chen Chunmei first moved into the Sunshine Garden Community, Zhong Lin helped her a lot.

After Chen Chunmei finished speaking, she called Zhao Donghai, who was still on duty at the supermarket, and asked him to prepare some fruit for visiting the patient.

Chen Yang immediately tried to persuade her, saying: "Aunt, the situation over there is still unclear; if you go now you'll only cause trouble. It's better to wait until the doctor finishes the procedures and the condition stabilizes before going to see him."

Chen Chunmei agreed it made sense, and then asked Chen Yang: "Chen Bing and Zhong Lin went to the hospital; who is looking after the child? Has his mother come over?"

Chen Yang helplessly said: "Aunt, don't worry about it. They brought the child with them."

Chen Chunmei breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that, and she muttered to herself: "Old Zhong looks pretty strong and has a good temper; how did he end up with a heart disease..."

Chen Yang also didn't know the specifics, so he couldn't voice an opinion and could only advise Chen Chunmei to go home and cook.

He sat at the Zhao family's place for fifteen minutes before Zhao Qian finally returned.

"Brother, the traffic in Xingcheng is terrible; a half-hour drive ended up taking over an hour." Zhao Qian complained while changing her shoes, grumbling about Xingcheng's traffic.

Chen Yang was also used to the traffic in Xingcheng. Now he was more concerned about Zhao Qian's promise, made on his behalf, to donate to the East River Medical University Affiliated Hospital.

"Qian Qian, I heard President Wang say you want to donate to the hospital?"

"This..." Zhao Qian had been hesitating how to bring it up to Chen Yang, not expecting her advisor to be even more eager. She immediately explained: "Brother, I just mentioned it casually; I didn't expect the teacher to take it seriously."

Chen Yang wasn't surprised by this. Ever since the Old Hundred Names Agricultural Products Trading Company became well-known in Dongjiangsheng, Zhao Qian had become President Wang's personal disciple. People who put so much effort into nurturing his sister surely have some ulterior motive.

Zhao Qian rarely asks Chen Yang for money on her own initiative; this time, without consulting him, she agreed to the donation, most likely because President Wang has brainwashed her.

"Tell me, how much money to donate, and under what name?" Chen Yang didn't want to blame Zhao Qian for acting on her own. As long as she doesn't waste money, doesn't bully the weak at school relying on her strength, and can smoothly become a good doctor, he'll be content.

Zhao Qian said: "Today our hospital has a patient who, unable to afford medicine, ran to the top floor of the inpatient building to jump off. I persuaded him with difficulty, telling him you could pay to save his life, and only then did he agree to come down. I didn't expect the teacher to say there are still other patients in the hospital needing financial aid, asking if we could help solve them together. I softened for a moment... and thus agreed."

As a Reborn Person, Chen Yang knew very well that many expensive medicines in the hospital could be life-threatening. He wasn't an angel, had no time to learn about the patients' situation at East River Medical University Affiliated Hospital, and directly asked Zhao Qian: "How much money is needed?"

Zhao Qian, feeling a bit guilty, extended one finger.

"One hundred million yuan?" Chen Yang frowned, feeling that this figure seemed to require him to reimburse the entire treatment cost for all patients at East River Medical University Affiliated Hospital!

Seeing Chen Yang's misunderstanding, Zhao Qian immediately said: "Brother, it's not that much; ten million yuan is enough."

Upon hearing that, Chen Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, given his current wealth, donating a hundred million yuan wouldn't be a problem. He just feared that President Wang might have embezzled a lot of money behind the scenes and then use his donation to plug the hospital's financial deficit.

If the other party gets into trouble, Zhao Qian, as his student, would also suffer the consequences!

"Qian Qian, I can give you the money. But you must guarantee that these funds go only to those patients in need."

Brother, don't worry, I have a list of patients who need help here. The teacher said this money will be used specifically for its purpose; the hospital won't take a cent extra. After saying that, Zhao Qian took out a file bag from her backpack and handed it to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang took a look; there were sixty-five people in total, and even the lowest cost required at least 200,000!
