Chapter 293: 0287 Treat the Blind Eye First (3/4)

Just as he reached the elevator, a figure suddenly ran over from the entrance.

There was no shouting, only silent weeping after shock and surprise.

It was a girl, about twenty-three or twenty-four, her delicate face covered in tears.

The young man on the stretcher struggled to reach out, gripping the girl's hand tightly, and with almost his last strength said, "Don't tell my family."

The girl nodded desperately, tears scattering, crystal clear.

"Doctor, how is he?" the girl asked hoarsely, looking at Zheng Ren with tear-filled eyes.

Zheng Ren said somewhat coldly, "We need to go to the operating room. Are you his lover?"

"I'm his girlfriend."

"Call the family, sign the forms, prepare for surgery." The elevator arrived then, and Zheng Ren and another doctor pushed the stretcher into it.

Professor Rudolf Wagner also followed them inside.

This kind of rescue made him very curious.

After hearing Zheng Ren's words, the girl lowered her head, tears falling like broken pearls onto the elevator floor.

After sending the patient to the operating room, Chu Yan zhi took over, pushing him inside.

"Don't move that knife under any circumstances," Zheng Ren cautioned.

Chu Yan zhi gave Zheng Ren a contemptuous look and said, "I know."

If the dagger remains in the abdomen, some blood vessels stay closed, losing less blood; pulling it out would send the rescue in an unknown direction.

Zheng Ren then brought the girl back to the emergency ward; at that moment Su Yun had returned, saw Zheng Ren handling admission paperwork with the foreigner behind him, and paused.

Zheng Ren didn't even lift his eyelids, saying, "Go watch the operating room; I'll handle the matters below."

"Okay." Su Yun glanced at Professor Rudolf Wagner again, then went to the operating room.

"Go pay the deposit, we need to prepare blood for surgery." Zheng Ren handed the admission form to the girl and asked, "Can any family come?"

"Doctor... he said not to tell his family."

"You can't sign." Zheng Ren said somewhat coldly; during emergency rescues, he hated this kind of meddling the most.

"He's about to die—do you really want to break the news to his family?"

Moreover, just looking at this boy's disreputable friends tells you he's no good either.

"Doctor, I can sign, I really can. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility," the girl said firmly.

Hmm? Zheng Ren felt a new impression of the girl.

Zheng Ren had seen many car accident and stabbing victims whose lovers pretended not to know them, yet this girl actually claimed she could take responsibility.

Interesting.

With Su Yun upstairs, Zheng Ren wasn't worried and asked a few more questions.

"What's going on?"

"Kai Ge is a good person, working hard to earn money to support the family. His father died early; he only has a mother who is ill in bed." The girl composed herself and said, "We've been friends for two years; if nothing unexpected happens, we plan to marry next spring. But he has a lot of friends in society; Kai Ge is righteous and always helps his friends. This time he lent the thirty thousand we had saved for our wedding to his friends."

Zheng Ren nodded.

Young man, this kind of thing is common; once the blood cools and he gains sense, it'll be fine.

But looking at his friends, this little guy's eyes are indeed blind enough; he should go to the ophthalmology department first, get his eyes treated, then talk.

"I was angry with him and didn't speak for days. I never expected him to be led astray by those people, ending up like this." The girl lowered her head, constantly wiping away the tears welling up: "I was wrong; I shouldn't have been angry with Kai Ge."

Zheng Ren also printed out the pre-operative instructions and other documents needing signatures.

He explained them one by one; although brief, it was clear and orderly.

The girl signed without hesitation, and in the relationship field wrote the two words "lover."

This girl is really not bad, Zheng Ren thought.

"I'll go to surgery, do my best to save him, and also try to save you money," Zheng Ren said seriously.

The girl bowed deeply, then took the admission form to pay the fees.

After finishing this, Zheng Ren headed to the operating room while calling, telling Su Yun to wait a bit before starting, and to hold off on anesthesia until he arrived.

Although Su Yun didn't understand, he still agreed.

Professor Rudolf Wagner still followed behind Zheng Ren, who found it strange and asked, "Professor, are you preparing to go into surgery with me? The procedure later is just a general surgery, quite ordinary, nothing special to see."

"No, no, Zheng, I want to understand your perseverance and faith." The professor shook his head, and an artistic aura suddenly blossomed: "That documentary gave me a deep shock; I feel I need to understand you."

Zheng Ren didn't mind; the man is a world-renowned professor—can't just chase him away.

If he's willing to observe the surgery, let him look; doing surgery myself, I'm not afraid of being watched.

The more troublesome part is that young man; Zheng Ren quickly sketched out a plan in his mind.

For doctors, these things are superfluous, but Zheng Ren occasionally likes doing them—for example, the little traffic cop he met in the emergency department, or...

After changing clothes, Zheng Ren and Professor Rudolf Wagner arrived at the operating room.

Su Yun saw the foreign professor following up, felt a bit surprised, was about to ask, but saw Zheng Ren not going to scrub hands, instead approaching the patient and saying with a tone of regret, "What a pity, he's so young."

"Er..." Su Yun paused for a moment. "It's just a ruptured intestine—what's there to regret? Besides, he won't die from it."

But he immediately understood Zheng Ren's intention.

"Yes, this time we probably can't bring him back. How's his family? Anyone else?" Su Yun instantly launched into drama, playing opposite Zheng Ren.

Zheng Ren gestured for Chu Yan zhi to be quiet, prepared the anesthesia motion, then said, "At home there's still a sick mother, and his fiancée is desperate outside, threatening to jump. Sigh, all his disreputable friends have left—what's the point?"

"What a pity, he's so young. If he dies, what will happen to his sick mother?"

"I expect no one will look after her; in a few weeks she'll die from stress-induced heart failure at home." Zheng Ren said, "A perfectly good family, just gone like that."

"Young man, in your next life, open your eyes." Su Yun stared seriously at the patient; the young patient's eyes had no spark at all, and although the monitor showed stable vital signs, he now looked like a corpse.

Zheng Ren then made a gesture, and Chu Yan zhi began pushing the medicine.

After a dozen seconds, the patient entered general anesthesia.

"Zheng Lao Ban, what are you after?" Su Yun scoffed, scrubbing her hands as she asked.

"Looking at him pitifully, it's not pity for him, but pity for his mother and his fiancée." Zheng Ren sighed, "Doing our best is enough; if he can walk out on his own, that's best. If it stays like this, what we said will eventually become reality."

Su Yun deeply agreed.

Emergency surgery, once again began.
