Chapter 560: Please Give Me Some Time!

~8 min read 1,518 words

Hearing the doctor say that Xiao Fang had previously agreed to organ donation...

At this moment, Chen Lan realized that Xiao Fang might truly be beyond saving!

What should she do?

Although Xiao Fang had done many outrageous things in her own marriage.

But she was, after all, her mother!

Chen Lan's legs went weak, and she collapsed onto the floor.

Du Xi hurriedly supported Chen Lan and comforted her in a low voice, "Chen Lan, don't worry, there must still be a way."

Shen Mingcheng had not expected his mother-in-law's condition to be so severe, and at this moment, he also felt somewhat sorrowful.

Having been married for many years, his mother-in-law had always treated him well; he even believed that his marriage to Chen Lan was primarily due to his mother-in-law's mediation.

Shen Mingcheng looked at Chen Lan with cold eyes; it was too late for Chen Lan to regret it now.

If one had known it would come to this, why act that way in the beginning?

He had already turned over a new leaf, yet she kept pestering him, refusing to let go of past matters.

When a man is out in the world, it is inevitable that he will encounter times when he has to play along, and she was far too narrow-minded.

Chen Ming'an squatted to one side, his whole person becoming unusually sullen; having lived with Xiao Fang for many years, he had always lived a spineless life, but after all, there is a hundred nights of grace in a single night of marriage, and upon learning his wife was critically ill, he did not feel well inside either.

"If the patient's family has no objections, please sign now!" a doctor urged softly, "Her corneas will be donated to a ten-year-old child, and as for her kidneys and other organs, they will also have a destination..."

"We need to discuss this!" Chen Ming'an slowly raised his head.

"Dad, I don't agree!" Chen Lan shook her head, "My mom is most afraid of pain. Although she is brain-dead, there is a saying that after a person dies, the soul remains attached to the body for seven days. If someone were to remove organs from her body, how cruel that would be."

Shen Mingcheng thought to himself that Chen Lan was being overly emotional.

"Calm down. Mom is already brain-dead; the doctor has confirmed it. If we accept organ transplantation, on one hand, it can help others in need, and on the other, it is a form of life's continuation."

Chen Lan looked up at Shen Mingcheng and sneered, "Don't act all hypocritical here, thinking you are a person of high moral standing. I do not agree to organ donation!"

The doctor reminded them softly, "The patient previously participated in an organ donation event at our hospital and registered her information at the time, which is why we came to ask about the situation."

Shen Mingcheng persuaded Chen Lan, "See, this was Mom's own idea; I think we should respect her wishes."

The doctor looked toward Chen Ming'an.

Chen Ming'an usually didn't have much of an opinion, and at this moment, he had no idea what to do.

He looked toward Xiao Guangyi, "Brother, what do you think we should do?"

Xiao Guangyi, of course, would not express his own opinion and said in a deep voice, "Old Chen, you still have to be the one to make this decision!"

Chen Ming'an sighed, "Xiao Fang often participated in public welfare activities organized by the school. She did indeed participate in an organ transplant awareness event before, and even persuaded me that if I were ever beyond saving one day, I should consider donating my own organs. I think we should fulfill her wishes."

A look of admiration appeared in the doctor's eyes as he handed the agreement and a pen to Chen Ming'an.

"Please rest assured, we will donate your wife's organs to those in need. This will help many patients, and the patients and their families will be grateful to you."

Chen Ming'an tremblingly took the agreement, browsed through it carefully, and then picked up the pen, preparing to write his name in the signature column.

Chen Lan bit her lip, wanting to stop her father, but felt somewhat helpless.

After all, this was her mother's dying wish.

Chen Ming'an wrote down his surname, and grief struck him; a hoarse, sobbing sound escaped his throat.

"Wait!"

A resonant voice rang out!

Tang Ye shouted!

Everyone looked toward Tang Ye.

Tang Ye had been hesitating; Xiao Fang's attitude toward Xiao Qin's family had always been cold, often sarcastically mocking Xiao Qin, and Tang Ye had no good feelings toward Xiao Fang in his heart.

Deep down, he did not want to get involved in the Xiao Family's affairs.

But, at this very moment, a life was at stake.

For Chen Lan's sake, Tang Ye could not sit idly by.

Chen Lan had recently helped Tang Ye resolve the funding issue for Xinlv Investment, and he could not bear to let Chen Lan regret today's wrong decision.

Shen Mingcheng looked at Tang Ye with displeasure, thinking to himself, who do you think you are, do you have a say here?

Tang Ye walked straight over and snatched the pen from Chen Ming'an, "Although I am not a doctor, I have a certain understanding of medicine. Aunt is currently judged to be brain-dead, but theoretically, there is still a possibility of being saved. Especially since the hospital is now urging for organ donation, that further proves that Aunt's organs have not yet failed, because organs must be healthy to be used for transplant surgery. If you sign the agreement now, she will truly be gone."

Chen Ming'an was stunned the moment he heard Tang Ye say this.

Shen Mingcheng sneered, "According to your meaning, we should go against her dying wish?"

Tang Ye could naturally feel Shen Mingcheng's hostility, but now was not the time for an argument, so he said somewhat helplessly, "I already said, there is still hope! Can you give me some time!"

Seeing that Tang Ye did not take him seriously, Shen Mingcheng retorted angrily, "Who is going to save her? The doctors have already said there is no chance."

Tang Ye responded in a deep voice, "A national neurosurgery academic conference is being held in the province these few days, and many Experts have come to attend. Perhaps we can think of a way from there."

Shen Mingcheng was taken aback and looked at Tang Ye in surprise, thinking to himself, how does he know about such an international conference?

Seeing the look of confusion on Xiao Guangyi's face as well, Du Xi explained, "Uncle, Tang Ye's father is a neurosurgeon, and he is also attending this conference these two days."

Xiao Guangyi looked toward Tang Ye with a complex expression.

At this moment, he was more inclined to believe the view of the Experts at the Provincial People's Hospital; his sister was already brain-dead, and after her organs were donated, living in this world in another form might bring some psychological comfort.

But, he was also incomparably conflicted in his heart.

Because people always hold onto hope.

Especially when facing the thin line between life and death, one will strive even harder to find a glimmer of light.

Xiao Guangyi took a deep breath, "I will find a way! Even if the final result does not change, at least we will have tried our best and will not regret it."

Xiao Guangyi found the Dean and asked softly, "I heard that a national neurosurgery conference is being held in Qiongjin these few days, and all the famous scholars are in Qiongjin. Why don't you use your connections to help me invite a top Expert to come and take a look? Please rest assured, money is not an issue."

Zheng was taken aback.

He knew the strength of the Xiao Family in Huai Province; although they had been going downhill in recent years, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.

Otherwise, he would not have come in person to accompany them the whole way.

Although Zheng is also a famous doctor, he is an internal medicine physician, so he is not particularly familiar with neurosurgery academic conferences and circles.

Zheng immediately greeted the Attending Physician, "Chief Physician Tong Bo, is there an international neurosurgery conference in Qiongjin these few days?"

Tong Bo was stunned for a moment, "Yes, it is being hosted by the hospital next door, and our hospital has arranged for a senior Chief Physician to attend the conference."

Zheng said, "Can you invite a few authoritative Experts with national influence to come over for a consultation?"

Tong Bo felt somewhat troubled.

He knew that the patient's family members were very powerful.

Otherwise, Zheng would not have given him instructions.

"I will try to contact them and see. However, it is quite late now, so it will be very difficult."

Zheng said in a serious tone, "Do not look for excuses! You must do your best!"
