Hearing what the attending doctor said, Xue Yao couldn't help but become nervous and asked, "How is he? Can he still be treated?"
"Um..." Zeng Hong hesitated for a moment and said, "Your father's cancer cells have spread, and we have no way to completely cure him. We can only take a conservative approach and hospitalize him for observation to see if the condition can improve. It is recommended not to treat him again. Using radiotherapy or other drug stimulation, the patient's physical function will be greatly reduced, and he can no longer tolerate it. "
Xue Yao was not stupid, she had already heard the doctor's tactful tone. Her body froze a little, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Lu Zixin held her hand tightly and let her feel his presence. Xue Yao sniffed and said to the doctor in a calm tone: "Dr. Zeng, you don't have to speak to me so tactfully. I'm mentally prepared."
"Just tell me directly, my dad, can he be saved?"
"Hey." Zeng Hong sighed. Even though he had been a doctor for decades, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness whenever he personally informed the patient's family that the patient was incurable.
"Unfortunately, there is currently no cure for your father in the medical community. We can only try our best to keep him alive longer, but it won't last long."
"Well, I understand, thank you, doctor." Xue Yao acted calmly, but Lu Zixin could feel the trembling of her hands.
Department director Xia Mojin stood up and comforted: "Miss Xue, I promise, we will do our best!"
Xue Yao just nodded and was speechless.
As soon as she left the consulting room and came to the lounge, Lu Zixin hugged her and whispered: "Cry, I know you have endured it for a long time."
Hearing his words, Xue Yao couldn't hold it in anymore and cried bitterly again. After crying for a while, Xue Yao fell asleep from exhaustion.
…
A few hours later, the nurse came to inform them that Xue Bai had just woken up and was relatively stable, and they could go visit him.
Hearing this, Xue Yao quickly went to the bathroom and redressed to prevent her father from seeing her expression.
In the ward, Xue Bai woke up not long ago. His eyes were scattered and lifeless. Only when he saw Xue Yao did he show some warmth.
"Ah...ah..." Xue Bai was saying something, but his voice was too weak to be heard clearly.
"Dad, I'm here, what did you say?" Xue Yao lowered her waist and put her ear next to her.
"Yao Yao." Xue Bai whispered, "You, take more... take care of yourself, don't... leave me alone." His voice was low and laborious, and Lu Zixin could hear him because his hearing was more sensitive than ordinary people.
"Dad, what are you talking about? I am your daughter, how can I not take care of you?" Xue Yao said accusingly.
Xue Bai showed a smile and said: "I... know, there are a lot of things in your company. I'm sick and can't drag you down."
"There is no such thing." Xue Yao said, "I will take care of the company's affairs, you don't have to worry!"
"Yes, uncle." Lu Zixin also said from the side, "The company still has me, everything will be fine. Just let Yaoyao accompany you, it's good."
Xue Bai shook his head hard and said: "My own body, I know it. In fact, a few years ago, I knew that I was... almost. Now, it's time. No... don't use it on me... What a waste of money.”
His tone was very calm, as if he had already known about this. Except for those who suddenly become ill, most people are already aware of their physical condition.
Xue Bai was injured and overworked when he was young. Coupled with not tabooing tobacco and alcohol, my body collapsed several times. Those few times, he was discharged from the hospital without fully recovering. This time, there is really no chance.
Hearing what her father said, Xue Yao's eyes turned red again. Seeing that she couldn't help her emotions, Lu Zixin stepped forward to hold her and said to Xue Bai: "Uncle, don't worry, your condition is not that serious yet. I have invited the top experts in the country to come and you will be cured soon." ”
"You don't have to worry about Yaoyao, I will take care of her."
Xue Bai forced out a smile and said: "It's really... I'm giving you an advantage, but... you are more capable than me. You are extremely capable. I'm sorry to bother you."
He said that he was tired again and closed his eyes to rest. Lu Zixin stopped making any sound and took Xue Yao out after Xue Bai fell asleep.
"Zixin, I think I will stay in the hospital these days. The company..." Before Xue Yao finished speaking, Lu Zixin said: "Don't worry about the company, I will arrange for people to handle the affairs."
"Yeah." Xue Yao nodded.
"I will try my best to find a solution regarding your father's matter," Lu Zixin said.
"He is only fifty years old. He can still live for decades!" Xue Yao still felt unconvinced when she thought of this. She used to think that having money could solve everything, but now that she has money, she can arrange the best hospitals and doctors for her father, but it still doesn't help!
…
A few days later, the experts specially invited by Lu Zixin arrived.
There are authoritative experts in cancer treatment from Beijing, as well as a French expert and a famous American medical doctor who once won the Nobel Prize in Medicine.
Many wealthy people did not spend money to invite these three people. Lu Zixin hired them by using his own network and promising to donate a large amount of money to their medical institutions.
The three experts and doctors studied together for several days before explaining the situation to Lu Zixin.
"Guys, what do you think of the situation?" Lu Zixin asked, and all three of them shook their heads.
American expert Brewer said directly: "God is calling him."
Wu Huaide, an old expert from Beijing, also sighed and said: "The spread of cancer cells is still lung cancer. Neither traditional Chinese medicine nor Western medicine can cure him. What we can do now is to find ways to maintain his life longer." "
French expert Benoit said something similar to them. He said: "My team is developing an anti-cancer drug. If Mr. Xue is willing to try it, he can try it. But I cannot guarantee the effect of the drug. Maybe he can gets worse."
"No way?" Lu Zixin frowned.
"No." Wu Huaide said, "Cancer is a world-class medical problem. We have been studying it for a lifetime, and the breakthroughs in cancer are extremely limited. If there is still a possibility of cure in the early or middle stages, Mr. Xue's physical fitness is poor. There is also a certain degree of drug resistance, and treatment methods are not very effective for him. "
Lu Zixin nodded, thanked them, and then said: "Guys, please stay for a few more days, I want to try again."
"Mr. Lu, I can only stay for five days. After five days, I have to return to China to treat another important patient!" Brewer emphasized.
"good."
