280: A ray of hope
Chen Jingfu said, "Ziyong, you don't need to worry. I have many acquaintances here, and many of them are leading experts in oncology with decades of experience."
"I'm calling the hospital now to arrange the best facilities. Also, send me the address."
"I'll have the hospital here contact the hospital there to transfer your father by ambulance!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Ziyong said, "Thank you, Brother Chen."
Chen Jingfu said, "You don't have experience in this area, so don't worry. Leave everything to me. I'll arrange it perfectly!"
"Your father will definitely be fine, so rest assured!"
After comforting Qian Ziyong, Chen Jingfu immediately leveraged his connections, making several phone calls.
He even personally went to the hospital in a rush to find the hospital director.
Sun Youan and the others, upon learning that Qian Ziyong's father had cancer, also cooperated with Chen Jingfu.
...
Inside Shen City Hospital, Qian Xiuqi had completed all his examinations and was waiting for the results.
Chen Huilan was by his side.
With such a big fuss, they also realized that the situation might not be so simple.
Qian Ziyong and Chen Jingfu were together in the doctor's office, looking at Qian Xiuqi's test results.
Malignant tumor.
It had already metastasized.
The doctor concluded after reviewing all the examinations.
When these two conclusions came out, Qian Ziyong's heart immediately sank, and all his hopes vanished at that moment.
"Can he be saved?" Qian Ziyong looked at the doctor expectantly, his eyes full of pleading.
The doctor shook his head slightly, saying nothing.
Qian Ziyong immediately knew the result.
Cancer is a terminal illness.
What is a terminal illness? It refers to a disease that cannot be cured and is fatal.
How many wealthy people have died from cancer?
Even if he had more money, it would be difficult for it to make much of a difference...
"Ziyong!" Chen Jingfu and the others came to comfort Qian Ziyong.
But none of them knew what to say...
Qian Ziyong shook his head: "I'm fine... You don't need to worry about me!"
"The most important thing now is to operate on my father!"
The surgery had to be done; with surgery, he could live for a few more years, without it, perhaps only a few months.
"Why is it lung cancer? If it were other cancers, it might have been detected earlier..." Qian Ziyong clenched his fists tightly.
Lung cancer is different from other cancers; its concealment is very strong.
In the early stages, lung cancer often has no symptoms, and by the time symptoms appear, it is already too late.
...
Outside the operating room, Qian Ziyong and Chen Huilan waited anxiously.
Chen Huilan now also knew the specific situation.
Although Qian Ziyong did not want to tell his mother, with his father undergoing surgery, his mother could guess.
His father himself also knew about his illness.
He was stronger than imagined; even as he was pushed into the operating room, Qian Xiuqi was still laughing and talking with them.
However, Qian Ziyong could see the deep helplessness and regret hidden beneath his father's smile.
Soon, his father's surgery was completed, and he was pushed out by the nurse.
"The surgery was very successful," a nurse said.
"That's good, that's good!" Chen Huilan muttered.
After the surgery, he had to be moved to the intensive care unit, which is a sterile environment and should be avoided.
Moreover, his father was still unconscious and unable to communicate.
Qian Ziyong looked at his father's pale, bloodless face, and his heart ached.
His lips were very dry; he lay motionless, an IV drip hanging by the bed, his body restrained by ropes.
With the help of the nurses, his father entered the intensive care unit.
"Ziyong, your father is fine now. You go do your own thing. I'll call you if anything happens!" Chen Huilan was worried about delaying Qian Ziyong's work.
Qian Ziyong said, "Mom, you go rest first. I'll stay tonight, and you can come tomorrow."
Brother Chen on the side advised both of them to rest.
The nurse also followed suit.
The nurse said, "There's nothing much here. I'll call you if anything happens!"
After the nurse's repeated persuasion, Qian Ziyong and Chen Huilan went to the hotel.
It was a hotel arranged for them by Chen Jingfu.
Qian Ziyong was not in the mood to appreciate the hotel's decor; after showering, he lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Waking up, Qian Ziyong opened his eyes, wishing that everything before was just a nightmare.
His father would leave him in at most four years.
The saddest was his mother.
And the child his mother was carrying; he would be born without a father.
Perhaps he would never have any memories of his father in this life...
Is there really no hope?
Although the doctor had given his father a death sentence, Qian Ziyong still did not want to give up.
He called Chen Jingfu: "Brother Chen, do you think my father's illness really cannot be cured?"
"The United States has more advanced medical care; is there any possibility of a cure there?"
Chen Jingfu was silent for a moment, then sighed: "It's very difficult, almost impossible to cure!"
"Although the medical care in the United States is more advanced than ours, it's very limited!"
"The cancer cells have already started to spread, you should know..."
Qian Ziyong fell silent.
How could he not understand?
When cancer cells are detected in other body organs, it means metastasis.
Once it metastasizes, many organs will become cancerous.
Incurable.
Even radiotherapy and chemotherapy would not have much effect; they would only slow down the spread.
The key is that both radiotherapy and chemotherapy cause significant damage to normal body cells, and the patient will suffer greatly.
Although medical care in the United States is a bit more advanced, it is limited.
Unless there is a drug that can precisely kill the cancer cells in his father's body one by one without harming normal human cells, then there might be a chance of a cure.
If such a drug existed, cancer would not be a terminal illness.
Now, unless a miracle occurs, there is no other way!
Wait!
Miracle!
Qian Ziyong's heart stirred.
System!
Every time the system upgrades, there are rewards, so is it possible that among these rewards, there is one that can cure his father?
In addition, the system is likely to have an advanced technology every cycle.
So, is it possible that if he engages in the medical field, the system's technology could also be in the medical field?
However, treating cancer is definitely not something simple medical technology can achieve; it requires many basic technologies.
He was only just starting to develop in medicine, and he didn't know if it was too late.
However, both the system's rewards and the system's advanced technology could potentially cure his father.
Even if it couldn't cure him, even if it extended his father's life, there would still be a glimmer of hope!
Heaven never seals off all the exits. What others can't do, what the United States can't do, doesn't mean he can't do it!
Thinking of this, Qian Ziyong's dejection vanished, replaced by full vigor.
To get the system's reward, he must lose money, he must lose money!
He had to lose so much that even his grandmother wouldn't recognize him!
Also, he needed to open a medical company and develop in that direction.
While accumulating talent in the medical field, he also needed to research advanced medical technologies, focusing on technologies for curing cancer!
