Chapter 1013: with translation of chapter title

~6 min read 1,160 words

"Still looking." Zou Yu replied softly.

She wore white casual clothes, though slightly shabby, her every gesture bore the graceful gentility of a lady from a respectable family.

"What is the medical team's opinion?" Zou Jia Hua said.

"There are no constructive opinions, they're still arguing. But they lean toward not trying it at 912; even if you want to do it, you should go to the Mayo Clinic."

Zou Jia Hua gave a bitter smile.

Faced with such a major matter, no one dares to take responsibility. If it weren't for my two consecutive cardiac arrests, I would probably keep postponing it.

As long as monitoring is strict and rescue timely, there should be no problem.

As for how long one can live… Zou Jia Hua felt that if he could drag it out another ten or twenty years, technological progress or finding a master in Nanyang who can dispel the gu technique would solve his problem completely.

I never expected that two cardiac arrests would occur in such a short time.

Damn it!

Zou Jia Hua thought resentfully.

What on earth happened to cause a body that has always been healthy and stable to suffer cardiac arrest two days in a row?!

Could it be that one should believe Doctor Zheng?

Although he looks professional and trustworthy, this is after all surgery. Zou Jia Hua is still hesitating, torn.

Since ancient times, the only difficulty is death.

Those words are truly correct.

The convoy slowly left 912, heading for a villa district in the suburbs.

There, Zou Yu arranged a full set of monitoring equipment. The emergency and rescue family doctor is in the vehicle behind.

Carrying medical staff along, although it's a bit troublesome, it's necessary. Without them, Zou Jia Hua wouldn't dare go out.

"Dad, do you think Doctor Zheng is trustworthy?" Zou Yu asked.

The car interior was completely silent, which made Zou Yu somewhat fearful, afraid that a living person would die strangely before her eyes.

Could the family curse happen to me as well? Zou Yu doesn't know either.

Faced with this unknown fear, she dares not think too much; even thinking about it gives her a feeling that she might break down.

Suppressing her inner anxiety, she still feels it's better to say something; otherwise her heart would remain unsettled.

"I'm still considering." Zou Jia Hua said softly, his eyes slightly closed.

Zou Yu knows her father has become afraid, already having the thought to risk surgery, but he worries about many things.

Although what Doctor Zheng says sounds unreliable, this is after all the only solution. But he, who is usually decisive and quick, has also begun to hesitate in this matter.

"The administration of 912 has already contacted through Liu Bo. If needed, the special ward can admit you at any time." Zou Yu said.

"Has the news from Sweden been verified?" Zou Jia Hua asked.

He feels very tired, his eyes barely open; he wants to sleep but dares not, for fear that, like his father on the plane, he might never wake up.

"Last December, Doctor Zheng indeed went to the Royal Karolinska Institute for the Nobel Prize matter." Zou Yu held a PAD, opened a document, and said: "At that time, Nobel Prize reviewer Doctor Mei Ha'er's heart had already failed, deemed untreatable, only able to await the arrival of the grim reaper."

Saying this, Zou Yu's heart skipped a beat; she felt she had used the wrong word.

She carefully raised her head and glanced at her father.

Zou Jia Hua gazed out the window, seemingly not noticing the words Zou Yu mentioned about the grim reaper and incurability.

"Doctor Zheng then had no chance of being nominated; he went to the Royal Karolinska Institute merely to try. But that night, Doctor Mei Ha'er fell ill, and could die at any moment… With permission from Doctor Mei Ha'er's wife, Doctor Zheng performed an emergency surgery overnight."

"The surgery was very effective; recently Doctor Mei Ha'er underwent a physical examination, though specific data cannot be obtained, but according to well-informed sources, Doctor Mei Ha'er has recovered health and will come to China soon for a second-stage surgery."

Zou Jia Hua said nothing, continuing his silence as he watched traffic pass outside the window, as if trying to memorize this beautiful yet ugly world.

"According to the data, Doctor Mei Ha'er's pre-operative heart condition was severe; the Royal Karolinska Institute and cardiologists worldwide consulted multiple times, but there was nothing they could do."

"Furthermore, according to a professor at the Royal Karolinska Institute who witnessed Doctor Zheng's surgery that day, Doctor Zheng possesses a pair of hands kissed by God…"

Saying this, Zou Yu also felt the matter was utterly absurd!

An Eastern little doctor, his hands kissed by God? Or here the term 'God' can also be translated as 'Heaven'.

But no matter how it's translated, it seems utterly unbelievable.

"Their claim is like this, possibly all exaggerated. But judging from the final outcome, Doctor Mei Ha'er's problem should have been resolved." Zou Yu tried to stay objective, not recalling the "hateful" assistant beside Doctor Zheng, nor mentioning the illness.

"That's right." Zou Jia Hua nodded slightly; if Doctor Zheng's skill were truly that high, taking a risk would not be unwarranted.

"According to publicly available information about Doctor Zheng, recently he has been collaborating with a mainland medical website to livestream surgeries." Zou Yu looked at the data, her delicate brows slightly furrowing.

Regarding the livestream, it first gave her a very bad impression.

This is not a doctor in the conventional sense; at least from the surgery livestream, it appears so. Whenever she thinks of livestreaming, her mind fills with those ostentatious long-legged beauties.

"Livestream?" Zou Jia Hua found it strange.

"Doctor Li of the medical team said he watched Doctor Zheng's recent surgery livestream; the general surgery skill is world-class." Zou Yu said.

"General… general…" Zou Jia Hua muttered softly, seeming still dissatisfied.

For interventional surgery, his level should be higher. The German beside him is a world-renowned interventional surgery expert—Professor Rudolf Wagner of Heidelberg University Medical Center in Germany. He came to China to learn interventional surgery techniques from Doctor Zheng, and this has already been confirmed with the doctors at Haicheng First Hospital.

The Zou family's intelligence is fast and highly accurate.

These scattered details, if one is willing to spend money, are not hard to find. But being able to gather so much information this quickly requires a certain level of professional expertise.

"Doctor Zheng is trustworthy." Zou Yu said: "This evaluation comes from Director Xu of the Anesthesiology Department at 912; he said…"

Just as she was saying that, Zou Yu suddenly felt something was off.

The silence inside the car was frightening, as if the father had not spoken for nearly a minute. Only her own voice continuously reporting data, and the father's breathing…

It seemed to have stopped!
