Chapter 1172

Du Haiqing listened to Su Shoudao's accusations without getting angry, but said lightly: "Su Shoudao, if you have self-knowledge, you should know that you are currently standing in a moral low ground. If you still insist on occupying the moral high ground at this time, it is really disappointing."

As she spoke, Du Haiqing added: "Affection is not something that can be fought for with words, but something that needs to be maintained with actual actions. I just proposed a divorce to you, and you feel that I don't care about affection, but your child outside is already twenty years old. You have deceived me for so many years. In the past so many years, have you ever thought about our husband and wife affection?"

Su Shoudao felt extremely dejected after hearing this.

"Yeah... now accusing Du Haiqing of not being affectionate is almost equivalent to slapping myself in the face... After all, I am the one who really did wrong, and I have been wrong for more than twenty years..."

Just when he didn't know how to answer Du Haiqing, Du Haiqing sighed slightly: "Hey, let's not talk about this. I called you because I want to get the divorce done as soon as possible, because I want to settle in Jin Ling in the future. Even if I don't settle down, I at least want to live in Jin Ling for a period of time, so getting a divorce as soon as possible is also for your consideration, so that others won't gossip about you because of this."

Du Haiqing didn't make it too clear, but Su Shoudao had already gotten the hidden meaning in her words.

Du Haiqing meant that she wanted to stay in Jin Ling. If the people from those big families in Yan Jing knew about this, everyone could guess why she stayed in Jin Ling. To put it bluntly, it was for Ye Changying.

If Du Haiqing and Su Shoudao were still husband and wife, then Du Haiqing's settling in Jin Ling for Ye Changying would indeed affect Su Shoudao's face to a certain extent.

But if they were divorced, Su Shoudao could at least save some face.

Su Shoudao was very angry, but he couldn't say anything to accuse or oppose.

He had clearly realized in his heart that he no longer had any possibility of winning Du Haiqing back. This woman was determined to divorce him...

Thinking of this, he hated Ye Changying even more in his heart.

"Ye Changying, this bastard, is really haunting!"

"He has been dead for so many years, and he is still deeply influencing Du Haiqing."

"That's fine, now he even hooked Du Haiqing to Jin Ling!"

"In Du Haiqing's eyes, this guy who has been dead for more than twenty years is much more important than me!"

Du Haiqing on the other end of the phone didn't hear Su Shoudao's response for a long time, so she continued: "After all, we were husband and wife, so let's part on good terms."

Su Shoudao was silent for a moment, took a deep breath: "Hiss... you said it too, after all, we were husband and wife, and we have been husband and wife for so many years. Let me consider this matter."

Du Haiqing gave a hum and said: "Call me whenever you have considered it. There are connections in all departments in Yan Jing. For things like divorce, we don't need both of us to go. As long as we coordinate well, we can just send a lawyer to handle it."

"Good." Su Shoudao said: "I will contact you as soon as I have considered it."

"Good, then that's it."

In the afternoon, Ye Chen had lunch at home and prepared to go out with the pills he had refined.

Because he promised Qin Aoxue that he would go to her home early to give her some guidance, Ye Chen cleared his afternoon schedule in advance.

In order to facilitate carrying the pills, he said to his father-in-law Xiao Changkun: "Dad, do you have any plans for the afternoon?"

Xiao Changkun smiled and said: "I'm still going to the Calligraphy and Painting Association in the afternoon, and we have a dinner with the executives of Sotheby's Auction House in the evening."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Then you must be drinking in the evening, right?"

"Yes." Xiao Changkun smiled: "I have to drink a little bit, why?"

Ye Chen said: "Oh, it's like this, I have something to do in the afternoon. If it's convenient for you, Dad, let me drive the car in the afternoon."

Xiao Changkun handed the car keys to Ye Chen without hesitation and said: "What's inconvenient about this? You take it. It just so happens that I have to drink in the evening, so I have to find a designated driver if I drive, and it's much more convenient to take a taxi."

Ye Chen nodded and took the car keys.

Xiao Churan on the side said: "Dad, then I'll go to the company in a while, and I'll drop you off at the Calligraphy and Painting Association on the way."

Xiao Changkun smiled: "Okay, this saves a taxi fare."

After Xiao Changkun and Xiao Churan left, Ye Chen took the pills out of the room, put them in an inconspicuous backpack, and walked out of the house.

He drove Xiao Changkun's car and headed straight to the villa Qin Gang had in the suburbs.

At the same time, at the Jin Ling People's Hospital, Wang Dongxue had just finished delivering food to her mother and immediately went to the office of the director of the Nephrology Department to ask about her father's current condition.

Director Chen of the Nephrology Department, who was over sixty, pushed his glasses and said seriously: "Director Wang, to tell you the truth, your father's condition is very serious now. The kidney in his body has no effect at all now..."

"We have to perform peritoneal dialysis on him every day, and hemodialysis every other day, and his complications are getting more and more serious."

"I went to check this morning and found that his state today has slipped quite a bit compared to yesterday..."

"Yesterday I communicated with your mother, saying that there was still a transplant window of about twenty days, but after another assessment today, the situation is not optimistic. I personally feel that this cycle may be shortened to about fifteen days."

Speaking of this, Director Chen sighed and said helplessly: "There are fifteen days left in the transplant window. Excluding the time for preoperative preparation, you have at most twelve days to find a kidney source. If you can't find one, then there is really no way."

Wang Dongxue's tears couldn't be controlled, and they instantly welled up.

She hurriedly wiped away her tears and asked anxiously: "Director Chen, how could my dad's condition slip so badly? The kidney he has now was transplanted only two years ago. The transplant surgery was performed by you. You also said that he wouldn't be in danger of life for at least ten years, but it's only been two years..."

Director Chen said helplessly: "This situation is indeed far beyond my estimation, and I can't figure out why his kidney failure process developed so fast this time. I also tried to check if he accidentally ate any toxic substances, but I haven't found any clues."

Wang Dongxue asked: "Director Chen, are there any toxic substances that can cause a person's kidneys to fail rapidly?"

Director Chen nodded and said: "Some Chinese herbal medicines have relatively strong nephrotoxicity, such as Aristolochia. The country has long removed this medicine from the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, but there are still some unscrupulous Chinese medicine practitioners who, in order to make patients see results quickly, secretly add Aristolochia to the prescription, eventually leading to severe kidney damage in patients..."

As he spoke, Director Chen sighed and said: "Indiscriminately buying health products, indiscriminately taking herbal medicines, and indiscriminately believing in rumors about health preservation are also a major cause of kidney failure in middle-aged and elderly people in recent years..."

"Moreover, these middle-aged and elderly people are easily fooled by unscrupulous TV commercials, mobile phone commercials, and so-called health masters, lacking the ability to distinguish."

"We have a director of thoracic surgery in our hospital whose father has always looked down on him for studying Western medicine, and he doesn't know how to distinguish between good and bad Chinese medicine. Every day he blindly believes in those health programs on TV..."

"Last year, he felt that he seemed to have frequent urination, so he prepared a pair of Chinese medicine for himself according to the content of the health program, boiled three bowls for himself every day, and drank them secretly. After drinking for three days, he was sent to the hospital with acute kidney failure..."

"He didn't even last forty-eight hours in the hospital before he was gone."
