So Pure, So Flirtatious

Chapter 586: Yang Ming’s Decision

Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko

Zhong Hanlin received the invitation from Liu Weishan and rushed to Song Jiang without stopping. He and Liu Weishan were good friends with each other since they were young, and they studied in the same private school.

Later, the two joined the army together, but Zhong Hanlin was a military doctor. After demobilization, they went to teach at Zhejiang University. Later, Zhong Hanlin transferred to Beijing and Liu Weishan transferred to Song Jiang.

Although the two of them lived far apart from each other, their friendship had been maintained until now. Usually, they always called each other to give a greeting. After all, people at their age didn’t have many childhood friends left. There were very few friends with whom they could keep in touch. Therefore, both of them valued this friendship. Whenever there was an opportunity, they would come together to talk about the old times.

When a good friend was in need, Zhong Hanlin didn’t have the arrogance of an expert. If it was another person, then Zhong Hanlin would never have come over before the Chinese New Year! However, Liu Weishan was different. Zhong Hanlin came directly with his wife and grandson. He was now preparing to celebrate the Chinese New Year at Liu Weishan’s place in Song Jiang!

Zhong Hanlin’s son and daughter-in-law were living abroad. The holidays for Chinese New Year weren’t the same as the locals, so after coming back for Chinese New Year’s Eve, they weren’t able to stay for Chinese New Year. However, the old couple, Zhong Hanlin and his wife, were also used to it already. Fortunately, with the company of their grandson, their lives weren’t lonely.

Zhong Hanlin knew about the situation at Liu Weishan’s home. His only son suddenly disappeared. The impact on him was quite large. However, he heard that Liu Weishan had recently made a good young man as his godson. He wanted to come and meet this person already. Now, he heard that his old friend’s godson had asked for this favor, so he naturally didn’t regret it. He ran straight to this place to see this young man.

Zhong Hanlin wasn’t like a person in his 60s. Mrs. Zhong was the same. Maybe people who studied medicine could maintain their health better. The two were as refreshing as middle-aged people.

At the pick-up exit, Yang Ming held the “Zhong Hanlin” board, but it was difficult to associate the two people in front of him with his godfather’s age. He couldn’t help but shake his head. Sadness makes people grow older!

It seemed that godfather was gloomy for so many years due to his son’s disappearance. It was also recently that Liu Weishan found some happiness after Yang Ming joined the family.

“Are you Uncle Zhong?” Although Zhong Hanlin’s age could be deemed as a grandfather to Yang Ming, since Liu Weishan was his godfather, he couldn’t mess up the seniority of the family. So, even though the age wasn’t commensurate, he had to address Uncle Zhong as an uncle.

In fact, Yang Ming didn’t simply utter it out. Although he saw Zhong Hanlin coming to him, he also took a look at the boarding pass ticket in Zhong Hanlin’s jacket pocket. Yang Ming saw that Zhong Hanlin’s pinyin was written on it, and only then did Yang Ming dare to abruptly identify him.

However, compared to Yang Ming, Zhong Hanlin had already confirmed Yang Ming’s identity. There was no other reason for Yang Ming to hold a board with his name, so he must be the Yang Ming mentioned in Liu Weishan’s phone call without a doubt.

“You are Yang Ming, right?” Zhong Hanlin said with a smile, “Is your godfather’s health still alright?”

“My godfather’s health is fine!” Yang Ming quickly took the luggage in Zhong Hanlin’s hands, and Xia Xue took the things in the hands of Zhong Hanlin’s wife which seemed to be like some souvenirs.

“This boy is great. You seem talented. Is this your girlfriend?” When Zhong Hanlin saw Xia Xue come along to pick them up in the airport, it was natural to regard her as Yang Ming’s girlfriend.

“No…” Yang Ming and Xia Xue almost said it in unison which seemed to be tacit.

After Zhong Hanlin heard it, he threw a smile. “If it isn’t, then so be it, right? You youngsters, I just can’t understand! Just like my kid, before he got married, he suddenly brought a girl home for Chinese New Year’s Eve. I asked him if she was his girlfriend. As a result, the two of them denied that while they emphasized that they were just ordinary friends. I thought they were just ordinary friends, so I prepared two rooms. As a result, the two of them still stayed together for the night. I thought they stayed in a foreign country for a long time, and their mindset was open, so I didn’t think too much. But I didn’t expect that, when they came back the second year, they brought me back a grandchild! They had done their marriage registration in a foreign country. Even the old man, I, didn’t get to know about it. It pissed me off! But it’s good that they brought back a grandson, so I didn’t say anything else either! So, your godfather and I are old. We can’t do anything on young people’s affairs!”

Zhong Hanlin didn’t take Yang Ming as an outsider subconsciously. He is my old friend’s godson. Isn’t he part of our family? Therefore, he blabbered to Yang Ming about his daily life directly.

However, these words made Yang Ming and Xia Xue embarrassed. Yang Ming coughed twice, and Xia Xue lowered her head in embarrassment… En? Why does it sound like Yang Ming and I are living together but we would rather die than to admit it?

“Oh! I didn’t notice that your girlfriend is actually a policewoman. Then, you should be careful. Please don’t lose to your wife!” Zhong Hanlin looked at the police car in the parking lot and laughed.

Yang Ming didn’t expect that this Zhong Hanlin not only looked young but also made jokes like young people. Yang Ming scratched his head embarrassingly and didn’t want to continue this topic. “That… Uncle Zhong, how about we discuss the injury of my friend?”

“Look at me. When I talk about my daily life matters, I can’t stop. I don’t have a junior at my side. I don’t get to talk much which makes me anxious. It’s a rare opportunity for me to meet a junior, so I can’t help but blabber!” As Zhong Hanlin sat in the car, he asked, “I heard from Weishan that your friend had a gunshot wound in her head?”

“That’s right… but the doctor here said, Zhou Jiajia, oh, the part where the victim was shot has a high density of nerves. They didn’t dare to operate easily, as they were afraid to harm the nerves.” Yang Ming explained.

“Oh? That can be a bit tricky!” Zhong Hanlin nodded after hearing it. “How about this? Take me directly to the hospital, and then let my wife and grandson rest at your godfather’s place!”

“This… that’s too much trouble for you, Uncle Zhong.” Yang Ming also knew that Zhong Hanlin was in a rush to arrived here. He must be very tired. He had to rush to the hospital without taking a break. It was a bit difficult for this old man. However, the time was tight. Yang Ming could only apologize in his heart.

“How much of a trouble it can be? What happened to you, kid? People from the same family need not be very polite to each other. With my relationship with Old Liu, is there a need to be polite?” Zhong Hanlin said with annoyance, “If I have something which I need to look for Old Liu, Old Liu will take the plane to my place in the middle of the night!”

When Yang Ming heard Zhong Hanlin say so, he wouldn’t say anything anymore. The reason was that Zhong Hanlin had already regarded him as the son of an old friend, so they were a family! If he continued to be modest, it would be a little fake.

Yang Ming didn’t say anything else. He just summarized Zhong Jiajia’s injury to Zhong Hanlin. At this point, Zhong Hanlin really understood that Xia Xue might be a policewoman who Yang Ming had a good connection with. There was no other substantial relationship. But based on Yang Ming’s tone, this injured girl seemed to be the main character, the person who had a real relationship with Yang Ming!

In this case, Zhong Hanlin became more serious. After entering the hospital, he didn’t have time to take off his jacket as he rushed to the consultation room.

Zhong Hanlin was a well-known brain expert in China. So at his arrival, the brain surgeons in the hospital expressed a warm welcome. After all, sometimes listening to an authority’s words was more important than anything else.

They put Zhong Hanlin at the main position, and then they took the CT film and handed it to Zhong Hanlin’s hand. Zhong Hanlin looked at the film. His brow couldn’t help but frown. He said after a long time, “It’s not good…”

The brain surgeons present also nodded after hearing his words. It was really difficult to handle now. None among them had the confidence to conduct this operation. Even Zhong Hanlin felt that it wasn’t easy to handle. Who else could handle it?

“The difficulty of the surgery will be high. I can give it a try. I can’t guarantee whether it would be successful or not, but I will do my best!” Zhong Hanlin sighed. He looked at Yang Ming with a glimpse of helplessness. “Son, it isn’t uncle being unwilling to work hard. It is really difficult!”

“Uncle Zhong, I understand…” Yang Ming also sighed and said, “Just do your best.”

“I will.” Zhong Hanlin shook his head and said, “The conditions of the CT Scan machines here aren’t good either. I think the film of the latest model of the CT Scanner in Beijing will be clearer than this… but we can’t send the patient to Beijing…”

“Uncle Zhong, is it possible that the surgery can be successful as long as you can see the specific location of the nerve near the bullet in Zhou Jiajia’s head?” Yang Ming asked in sudden inspiration.

“Theoretically, yes, but in fact, it is impossible. Most of our operations are based on feeling. We can’t see the nervous system inside the brain.” Zhong Hanlin smiled bitterly.

“Uncle Zhong, can we have a personal talk?” Yang Ming took a deep breath and made a big decision.

Indeed, it didn’t matter if it was a CT Scan or the naked eye if others couldn’t see it, but someone else could!
