Chapter 57: A Miraculous Restoration (I)
Tang Dynasty......
Tang Dynasty~
Tang Dynasty!
I don't know how long it took, when Tang Qian opened his eyes again, he was already lying on the bed in the Los Angeles hospital.
Me, why am I here?
Tang Qian slowly wanted to sit up, but as soon as his shoulder moved, a tingling pain instantly poured into his brain.
Click~
Just when Tang Qian grinned in pain, the door of the ward was opened, and Tang Qian twisted his neck to see that it was a young nurse with blond hair. As soon as the young nurse saw that Tang Qian had woken up, she hurriedly showed a surprised expression and said, "You, why did you wake up?" β
After Tang Qian heard this, he smiled bitterly: "Madam, what do you mean by this?" Do you still wish I was unconscious? β
"Oh, s, sorry~ I didn't mean that, it's just that the doctor said it would take you two to three days to wake up, so ......" the young blonde nurse replied with some embarrassment.
"Haha, it seems that my recovery ability is quite strong, even the American doctors have made a mistake." Tang Qian teased himself.
Who knows, the blonde nurse nodded seriously, and then spoke: "That's true, Mr. Perm, your recovery ability has far exceeded our expectations, please wait, I have contacted your attending doctor, and he will be there in five minutes." β
Tang Qian looked at the blonde nurse and sighed in his heart, the hospital facilities in the United States are good, even the little nurse has a radio talker in her hand, which makes people feel that the service is first-class at a glance, huh? Wait a minute!
Tang Qian seemed to think of something, and asked the blonde nurse in the room, "I'm sorry, may I ask, what kind of hospital is this?" Why am I alone in a room? β
Even if capitalism is as developed as the United States, it doesn't have such favorable hospitalization conditions, right? I remember that in movies and American dramas, I saw this is not the case! Separate ward, tall furnishings, I, oh my God, this ......
"Oh, Mr. Perm, we're here at the UCLA Medical Center." The blonde nurse replied with a smile.
"UCLA Medical Center? This, what is this place? With Tang Qian's barren American common sense, it is normal to not understand the meaning behind this string of words.
"Mr. Perm has just come to the United States, right?"
"Well, that's right."
"Then it's not surprising." The blonde nurse smiled and said, "Our UCLA Medical Center, built in 1955, was renamed Ronald in 2008. Reagan Medical Center, but since everyone is called Shun, most of the time we still use the old name. You know, Mr. Perm, our hospital has been ranked as one of the top five best hospitals in the United States for 25 consecutive years! According to a survey by U.S. News & World Report, it is known as the world's most technologically advanced hospital. β
I, I'll go, no, this hospital is so big???
Tang Qian admired the professionalism of this blonde nurse, and said in a cold sweat on his forehead: "This, this, ma'am, I want to ask, how much does this place cost?" β
"Mr. Iron, but all the five best hospitals in the United States, its cost is not cheap." The blonde nurse explained: "At our UCLA Medical Center, it usually costs about $1,000 a day, and the price of a special ward like Mr. Perm's needs to be added, about $10,000 a day. In fact, compared with other hospitals, our hospital is already very cheap, and you can definitely rest assured that Mr. Iron. β
WοΌWhatοΌοΌοΌ Around $10,000? You're not kidding, are you?
My salary in NBDL for one year is only enough for one day?
It's still cheap? Is this a black shop?
No wonder Tang Qian made a fuss, whether he was in this life or in the previous life, he was an ordinary person, and he never dreamed of living in a ward of $10,000 a day.
"Me, how many days have I been here?" Tang Qian suddenly gritted his teeth and asked.
"Oh, it's not even 12 hours, and the timekeeping in the staterooms is absolutely accurate." The blonde nurse said.
"Alright, I'm going to be discharged from the hospital now." Tang Qiandao.
"What, what? Mr. Ran, you have just woken up, and there are still many places that have not recovered, how can you be discharged from the hospital casually now? The blonde nurse said in surprise.
NND, if I don't leave, I'm going to go bankrupt!
"What's going on?"
Just when Tang Qian was about to be discharged from the hospital, the door of the ward was opened, and when he looked up, he saw a middle-aged man with glasses.
When the blonde nurse saw the visitor, she immediately said as if she had found a savior: "Louis Pi. Dr. Cech, Mr. Perm has to shout to be discharged, you see......"
"Discharged? Why? The middle-aged man looked at Tang Qian with a puzzled expression and said, "Hello, Mr. Ran, I am your attending doctor, Pi Louie. Cheqi, if you have any questions, you can directly report them to me. β
"Don't ask so much, just let me be discharged." Tang Qian replied very decisively.
"That's not going to work, Mr. Ran, as a medical worker, I have a responsibility and an obligation to restore you to health. And your application to leave the hospital now is completely irresponsible, so I will not agree. "Billy. Cheqi is also very principled.
"You're really not going to let me out of the hospital?" Tang Qiandao.
"No, absolutely not!" Louis Petero. Cage replied firmly.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want, anyway, I only have less than a thousand dollars on me, and I don't care if you want me to live." Tang Qian saw that the other party did not give in at all, so he simply went straight to the showdown.
"A thousand dollars? What does this have to do with a thousand dollars? "Billy. Church said again with a puzzled face.
"Let me ask you, how much do I spend in a day?" Tang Qian asked.
Louis Petero. Cheqi was stunned, but replied honestly: "All the examination fees and medical expenses are about 13,000 US dollars, plus the special ward you live in, you need to add an additional 10,000 US dollars, so that if you add up, the cost of a day is about 23,000 US dollars." β
$23,000? I'm dizzy, more than I imagined, this kind of ghost place, I really can't stay longer!
Listen to Louie. After Che Qi finished speaking, Tang Qian said more solemnly: "I can tell you, I am a poor ghost, if you don't let me be discharged from the hospital, I can't afford to pay such a high medical bill." The meaning of Tang's words is obvious, he wants to make this Louis. Che Qi retreated in the face of difficulties, and did not expect to get something out of himself.
"Pay? Mr. Perm, I don't understand why you say that? "Billy. Cheqi said: "Your hospitalization expenses have already been paid in advance for $200,000, why do you have to pay for it?" β
"If you don't pay, is your hospital a benevolent church, really...... Well??? What did you say??? I have prepaid $200,000 for my hospitalization??? You, you're not mistaken??? β
"How could it be wrong? Mr. Ran, every patient in the special ward, we are meticulous in our service, so there is absolutely no room for error, which I vouch for with the credibility of the University of California, Los Angeles Medical Center, please rest assured. "Billy. Che Qi looked at Tang Qian a little nervously and said, after all, if he received a complaint from the special ward, then Pi Louis. Cech's position as the attending physician will suffer a great impact. $200,000 is a lot of money even for UCLA Medical Center. Because Tang Qian, a patient, can take at least ten heads of ordinary patients, as a hospital operated by capitalism, it has slipped away "big customers", which is a "big sin". Therefore, as soon as I heard Tang Qian shouting to be discharged from the hospital, Louis . Qiqi's heart throbbed violently, for fear that Tang Qian would really go through the formalities and leave, and he would be responsible for most of the more than 100,000 dollars spit out by the hospital.
"Who, who helped me pay it...... It's her??? Tang Qian's brain finally gradually became active, and the scenes of last night emerged.
"Of course it's Swift Jr. Sister, could it be that you hurt your brain last night and had transient amnesia? "Billy. Cage pushed his glasses.
"No, I don't have amnesia." Tang Qian hurriedly shook his head and denied.
"That's good, otherwise this kind of disease will be very tricky to deal with."
She ...... Where did Taylor go? Tang Qian finally found the problem and hurriedly asked.
"Swift is small. Sister has a gig tonight, so just an hour ago, she went to the airport. The blonde nurse replied, "Mr. Perm, I think you're lucky, little Swift. My sister watched over you last night, and it can be seen that you are really a very important person for her. β
"Yes, yes? She's a top star, and she actually stayed here for a night? I'm so heavy on her, or ......," Tang Qian muttered to himself.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Wait for Louis. After helping Tang Qian do a series of examinations, Cheqi said: "Mr. Hot, your recovery ability is indeed very good, but there are still very serious tissue injuries in the ribs and chest, including your head, and there are also some slight concussions. Sister said, you are a professional basketball player, so my advice is that in the past month, do not do strenuous exercise, and you must recuperate in the hospital every day, otherwise, it is likely to leave irreparable permanent damage. β
"A month? No, it won't, right? Is it that serious? You're not lying to me, are you? When Tang Qian heard this, he was immediately shocked.
"Mr. Ran, please believe in my professionalism, not to mention anything else, the fourth and sixth ribs on your left side are slightly cracked, this is not a joke. If the damage continues, it is likely that the internal organs will be touched, and your life may be threatened, so please be sure to follow my instructions carefully. β
"Yes, is it that serious?" Tang Qian was also taken aback and said.
"Of course, I'm a responsible doctor, so I have no reason to joke with you." Louis Petero. Cheech replied with a serious face.
"But ......"
"Nothing good, Mr. Ran, I have also been in contact with many basketball players, I can only tell you, don't be anxious, you must be patient."
"Okay, okay." After Tang Qian paused, he said a little weakly.
On Christmas Eve, Tang Qian thought a lot about his hospital bed, but he didn't regret it at all.
Whether it's for the mission, or to protect Taylor, and give him another chance to choose, he will still do it.
It's just that this recovery time is really a bit beyond the bottom line of his heart.
Don't touch basketball for a month.
No exercise for a month.
How can this be improved?
How do you keep this going?
Tang Qian was helpless and switched into the "different space", but unfortunately as soon as he came in, he gave him another heavy blow.
Card.
I don't know when I made that mistake card.
Gone.
PS: Regarding the issue of hospitalization fees in the United States, sky-high hospitals abound, and it is not unusual for ordinary people to spend $10,000 on medical treatment, not to mention Tang Qian's special ward. In the end, I still beg for a collection, and it will break out tomorrow~~~
