The next morning, Zhong Xianghua's younger brothers and sisters rushed to Jiangcheng one after another, Zhong Xianghua's younger sister looked at the old man lying on the hospital bed with red eyes, and asked Zhong Xianghua who was standing beside him: "Big brother, can our father wake up?"

Zhong Xianghua heard his sister's inquiry, and remembered what Chen Tianlin said to him when he called Chen Tianlin last night, nodded subconsciously and replied: "When Director Chen arrives, he will find a way to wake up his father." ”

"Brother, Zhong Ji is here!" Zhong Xianghua's voice had just fallen, and his brother's voice suddenly came from behind him.

Zhong Xianghua heard his brother's shout, subconsciously turned around, and saw Zhong Huiming leading a large group of people towards the direction of the ward, Zhong Xianghua immediately walked up quickly, and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Zhong Huiming, who was walking in front, and said politely: "Zhong Ji! Thank you and the comrades of the Jiangcheng Ya for coming to the hospital to visit my father." ”

Zhong Huiming shook hands with Zhong Xianghua and replied with a concerned face: "Director Zhong! The old secretary is the old leader of our Jiangcheng, when he was in his post, he made great contributions to the construction of our Jiangcheng, and we should come to visit him, how is the situation of the old secretary?"

When Zhong Xianghua heard Zhong Huiming's inquiry, he shook his head with a heavy heart and replied, "Zhong Ji! According to the doctor, my father's physical function has completely failed, and although Director Chen has hung my father's life with a silver needle, he can only extend it for me for a day. ”

When Zhong Huiming heard Zhong Xianghua mention Director Chen, he immediately guessed that Director Chen in Zhong Xianghua's mouth was Chen Tianlin, and when he heard Zhong Xianghua's introduction, he said with a solemn face: "Director Zhong! Let's go see the old secretary first." ”

Soon a group of people came to the outside of the intensive care unit, looking at the old man lying on the hospital bed through the glass window, Zhong Huiming glanced at the middle-aged man who followed him, and then took an envelope from the other party's hand and said to Zhong Xianghua: "Director Zhong! This is a little bit of our heart from the Jiangcheng Yahe Municipal Government, please accept it." ”

Zhong Xianghua received the condolence money from Zhong Huiming's hand, and then handed the condolence money to his sister, and thanked him gratefully: "Zhong Ji! On behalf of our whole family, I would like to thank the Jiangcheng Yahe Municipal Government for their concern for my father!"

Zhong Huiming heard Zhong Xianghua's thanks, thought of the old secretary's death, and said: "Director Zhong! I have arranged for the Municipal Government Office and the Veteran Cadres Bureau to jointly set up a funeral team to assist you in taking care of the old secretary's death. ”

"Brother, Dean Liu is here!" Just as Zhong Xianghua was about to express his gratitude to Zhong Huiming, Zhong Xianghua's sister suddenly shouted to Zhong Xianghua.

Zhong Xianghua and Zhong Huiming heard the shout, subconsciously looked behind them, and just saw Liu Zhongming and Chen Tianlin, walking in the direction of the ward, because Zhong Xianghua did not know Chen Tianlin, he was looking forward to Chen Tianlin being able to appear soon, and immediately opened his mouth and asked Liu Zhongming: "Dean Liu, when can Director Chen come over?"

Zhong Huiming, who was standing on the side, had heard Zhong Xianghua mention Chen Tianlin before, and now when he saw that Zhong Xianghua didn't know Chen Tianlin, he immediately opened his mouth and introduced: "Director Zhong! I thought you knew Professor Chen, but I didn't expect you to know him. ”

When Zhong Xianghua saw the young man walking with Liu Zhongming, he thought that the other party was Liu Zhongming's subordinate, but he didn't expect that the young man in front of him was Director Chen, who was on the phone with him yesterday, which undoubtedly made him feel very embarrassed, and apologized to Chen Tianlin apologetically: "Director Chen! I'm sorry! I didn't expect you to be so young." ”

Chen Tianlin was already accustomed to the scene in front of him, and when he heard Zhong Xianghua's apology, he replied indifferently: "Director Zhong! It's okay, because you are not the first person to admit that I am wrong. ”

When Chen Tianlin said this, he smiled and asked Zhong Huiming, who was standing aside, "Zhong Ji, you also came to visit the patient?"

When Zhong Huiming heard Chen Tianlin's inquiry, he hurriedly replied respectfully: "Professor Chen! The old secretary is a veteran cadre of our Jiangcheng City, who has made great contributions to the economic construction of our Jiangcheng City, and now that he is leaving, I, as the person in charge of the Jiangcheng City Ya, will of course come over to see him off for the last time." ”

Zhong Xianghua couldn't help but show a respectful expression when he saw Zhong Huiming talking to Chen Tianlin, which surprised Zhong Xianghua, and secretly said in his heart: "Does this Director Chen have any background?

Chen Tianlin heard Zhong Huiming's introduction, nodded subconsciously, and said to Zhong Xianghua: "I'll come over now to help you wake up the patient, after the patient wakes up, he can only hold on for two hours." ”

Zhong Xianghua, who was puzzled in his heart, heard Chen Tianlin's words, and only then did he recover from his contemplation to reality, thinking that his father's life was only two hours, Zhong Xianghua did not give up and asked Chen Tianlin again: "Director Chen! Is my father really helpless?"

"Director Chen! I heard that you are a professor of the National Health Bureau, and even many foreign patients come to Jiangcheng to seek medical treatment, since you can hang my father's life with a silver needle, don't you have any other way to prolong my father's life?" Zhong Xianghua's younger sister immediately burst into tears when she learned that her father had only two hours to live, and begged Chen Tianlin to think of a way in a choked voice.

As a doctor, Chen Tianlin has long been accustomed to the scene in front of him, and in the face of Zhong Xianghua's sister's pleading, Chen Tianlin shook his head apologetically, and replied: "I'm sorry! The patient's body function has completely failed, I have done my best, and now I will help you wake up the patient." ”

Chen Tianlin's answer was like a basin of cold water, poured on the heads of the Zhong family's brothers and sisters, making Zhong Xianghua's two sisters couldn't help but cry.

Seeing the two younger sisters hugging each other and crying in pain, although Zhong Xianghua's heart was also very uncomfortable, he still shouted to his two sisters: "Yingmei! Yingfang! Don't cry, everyone will be happy when they see Dad, let Dad go with peace of mind!"

Chen Tianlin walked into the ward, stretched out his hand to remove the three silver needles inserted in the patient's chest, and then pricked several acupuncture points on the patient's body with the silver needles.

Chen Tianlin saw the patient wake up, turned around and walked out of the intensive care unit, and said to the Zhong brothers and sisters standing at the door: "The patient has woken up, you can go in and meet the patient!"
