236: My mother is ill

My mother is ill

"How are you feeling, Grandfather Han? Are you alright?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I feel perfect. It's been a long time since I've felt this good!" Elder Han sighed as he stretched his arms.

A guy called, Wei Ning, spotted Qin Yan and amazement appeared in his eyes. He had seen a lot in his life, but this girl's face and her temperament were too eye-catching.

He grew curious, but that was all he could do.

Of course, he would have never thought that it was the young lady who looked innocent and harmless in front of him who healed Elder Han!

"Elder Han, I beg of you. My mother is almost at her limit. I'm really left with no choice but to hassle you. I know miracle doctors are generally arrogant. Don't worry, if you tell me where the doctor lives, I will be respectful. I won't offend him."

Wei Ning bowed pleadingly.

Qin Yan deshelled some chestnuts, tilted her head curiously, and looked at the young man in front of her.

He had a neat crew cut, his appearance was masculine, and he wore loose unbranded athletics clothes. He looked pretty good, but he was unshaven, and he was slightly pale and vulnerable-looking.

Elder Han glanced at Qin Yan and said helplessly, "This isn't my choice. As you know, skilled people are difficult to hire. The doctor saved my life, I can't do anything offensive. How about this, go home and wait. I'll contact the doctor, and if the doctor agrees, I'll get someone to notify you."

Qin Yan understood Elder Han's gaze and analyzed Wei Ning.

He had a look of anguish on his face. When he heard the old man's reply, a look of despair flashed across his eyes. He was a filial son.

Qin Yan nodded slightly. 

The other people who were snooping around with gifts heard what Elder Han said. Of course, they were disappointed, but there was nothing they could do if the old man was unwilling to reveal anything. They could only find other ways to investigate the miracle doctor's whereabouts.

Even if they didn't need her help now, who could say that they wouldn't need her in the future?

This was life; no one knew when bad luck would befall them. There was definitely no harm in befriending a miracle doctor who could pull someone back from the brink of death.

If they actually fell ill one day, this could be a lifesaver!

"Okay, Elder Han, sorry for bothering you today. I hope you didn't mind."

"We will have to trouble you, Elder Han. As long as the miracle doctor is willing to help, he can set any condition. The Wangs will definitely fulfill it!"

Wei Ning also bowed thankfully. Although he felt hopeless, he wasn't angry at Elder Han for not helping. Everything relied on fate. Elder Han was saved by the miracle doctor but he couldn't make decisions on behalf of her.

No matter how powerful and rich he was. When faced with a deadly illness, everyone was equal.

The crowd left the same way that they arrived. Wei Ning waited until everyone was pretty much gone before he also started walking out.

"Hey, little rascal, the apple you brought me a couple of days ago was not bad. Where did you buy it from? I'll ask my care worker to buy some," Elder Han called him back curiously.

All the other people didn't give this a second thought. It was just a question.

So they walked off into the distance.

Wei Ning paused. A moment later, he was ecstatic.

Today was his first time here and he had brought expensive Chinese medicinal herbs that almost cost him his yearly salary. When had he ever brought Elder Han apples? His comment was clearly an excuse to stop him from leaving.

"Elder Han, you…"

He was so happy that his throat went dry.

After he turned his head and confirmed that the other people were far away, he began to walk back. He rubbed his hands and asked cautiously, "Are you willing to help me?"

"Ha! I'm not the one who's helping you. It's this girl…"

Elder Han grinned and pointed at Qin Yan who was sitting quietly at a side.

She was extremely serious. Her curled eyelashes fluttered like butterflies and twitched with each breath. They were long and beautiful. When she didn't speak, she looked like a doll that sat in a shop window.

Wei Ning opened his mouth in confusion. "So, Elder Han, you mean…"

He never even considered that Qin Yan would be the miracle doctor. At most, he simply thought she was the doctor's relative.

He quickly softened his voice, "Miss, is your grandfather the miracle doctor who saved Elder Han? Can you help me plead him? My mother is extremely ill. Please help her!"

After speaking, he bowed to her without considering whether she deserved it or not.

Qin Yan was dazed. She suddenly gained another grandfather out of nowhere? What the hell!

"Ahem…"

Elder Han peered sideways and a bodyguard naturally helped Wei Ning up.

He crossed his legs smugly, "Little rascal, Yan Yan is still young, she can't handle such formality. Besides, it depends on fate whether your mother can be cured. The doctor's treatment isn't guaranteed. Understood?"

Wei Ning had no idea why Elder Han was protecting Qin Yan, but he immediately nodded his head.

Filled with respect, he said with modesty, "Yes, I understand. Actually, I'm just being stubborn. The other hospitals already gave her a death sentence. Right now, we are just trying to keep her alive for as long as possible. But my mother didn't enjoy much fortune when she was young, so for her to suffer this way in her late years is too torturous. I…" As he spoke, his nose tingled and he lifted his head to blink back some tears.

Men didn't cry easily, but that was only because they didn't experience something that hurt them enough.

At the mention of his mother, even this tough 180cm tall guy couldn't control his tears.

"Don't worry. I simply want to give another try. Even if it fails, I won't blame anyone."

This was fate. If they failed this time as well, he didn't want to struggle anymore.

After all this time, his mother was probably tired.

"Yes, as long as you understand."

Elder Han nodded and asked Qin Yan, "In that case, Yan Yan, based on the fact that he's so filial, can you go with him and take a look at his mother?"

Qin Yan nodded and agreed in a gentle voice, "No problem!"

She then looked at the dazed Wei Ning and stretched out her hand to greet him. "Hi, my name is Qin Yan."

Wei Ning was dumbfounded as reality sunk in. Had he understood properly?

He looked at the girl and her fair outstretched hand. Her clear jade-like eyes blinked. She looked extremely cute!

He held her hand with hesitation; it was soft like cotton candy.

For someone like him who had done his military service, he had held weapons and endured the wind and rain, but when it came to holding this girls hand, he did not dare to apply too much force.

At that moment, everything finally felt real.

Elder Han wasn't the kind to joke. Since he had said what he did, then it was likely true.

With this thought, he bowed excitedly and spoke with respect.

"H-Hi! I am Wei Ning!"

Qin Yan was surprised by his passionate response. She tried to pull back her hand but failed. Eventually Wei Ning realized what he had done.0

"Sorry, I was too excited. A-are you the miracle doctor who cured Mr. Han?"

At the mention of the miracle doctor, Wei Ning felt it was slightly surreal.

This miracle doctor was too different from what he imagined. He expected an old man over fifty with white hair and a beard. In the end, reality gave him quite a blow. As he looked at the rosy-cheeked girl who looked like a young lady, he knew there would have been no way that this was anything he could have ever expected.

"What's a miracle doctor?" Qin Yan scratched her head. "It's true that I treated Grandfather Han, but my skills can still improve. I'm not sure whether I can save your mother. You give me your address. I will visit you as soon as possible."

Qin Yan honestly had no idea how good her medical skills were. Elder Su hadn't tested her for a long time. So, Qin Yan was not just being modest. Curing a person and saving them was all dependent on fate.

Wei Ning quickly nodded his head, "Thank you. Whenever you are free, you can call me. I will come to pick you up."

He showed complete sincerity, but his voice was slightly hesitant, afraid that Qin Yan would be unhappy.

But Qin Yan had a good temper so she nodded her head, "Okay. Leave your contact details. Tonight, send me your mother's symptoms, the name of all the hospitals she's attended, and the medicine she's taking."
