Chapter 18: Supplication

Wang Shuzhen felt that she was about to fall, so she quickly reached out and put an arm against the door frame, lowered her head and closed her eyes to ease the discomfort in her body.

Ding dong!

The woman outside the door couldn't help but be a little nervous when she saw that no one had opened the door inside, and rang the doorbell over and over again.

Wang Shuzhen in the door finally came to her senses, and after stabilizing her mental state, she finally reached out and opened the door.

The positive image of the woman outside the door is displayed in front of Wang Shuzhen - she, about thirty years old, shawl hair, melon seed face, fair face is assigned perfect facial features, especially the big eyes are particularly charming.

Wang Shuzhen stared at a beautiful woman about the same size as herself: "Xiaoyan, thank you for your hard work." ”

The young woman stared at Wang Shuzhen for a long time before she relaxed her nervous nerves: "Teacher Wang, why did you open the door?" It's scared the hell out of me! ”

Wang Shuzhen smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I called you to my house on a cold day, but I neglected you again." My body was useless and my movements were a little slower. ”

The young woman didn't say a word, and immediately stepped forward to hold one of Wang Shuzhen's arms: "Teacher Wang, your complexion is very bad, you have to take care of your body." ”

As she spoke, the young woman had already closed the door and helped Wang Shuzhen back to her original seat little by little.

As soon as Wang Shuzhen's weak body leaned on the sofa, she raised one arm: "Xiaoyan, pour the water yourself." ”

"Okay."

The young woman seemed to have arrived at her own home and began to get busy, first pouring a glass of boiling water for Wang Shuzhen, then also pouring a glass for herself, and finally sat side by side with Wang Shuzhen.

Wang Shuzhen took a sip of water, and her mental state further improved: "Xiaoyan, I called you from the unit to entrust you with something. ”

The young woman's name is Liu Yan, a colleague of Wang Shuzhen's unit, and an astronomical worker, who usually has a good relationship with Wang Shuzhen and respects her as a teacher. She nodded without hesitation in the face of Wang Shuzhen's request: "Well, you can say it." ”

Wang Shuzhen did not directly state her request, but first told her young colleague: "Xuedong came back yesterday. ”

Liu Yan looked surprised: "Why did Teacher Cheng come back so quickly?" ”

Wang Shuzhen explained: "He has been recruited by Mr. Nan as the scientific research team of the FAST project, and he specially came back to settle down at home. ”

Liu Yan's eyes lit up: "This is a great thing." Mr. Cheng can finally display his lofty ambitions, and also fulfill your dream for many years. ”

Wang Shuzhen's face changed: "But... My body can't hold it anymore... He's for me... I might have to give up on this business..."

Liu Yan's heart sank, and she couldn't help but stretch out her arm to wrap her sick body: "Teacher Wang, you must take care." ”

Wang Shuzhen's face was gloomy: "My condition is already like this, and leaving is a matter of one day earlier and one day later." However, if I drag down Xuedong to engage in the Tianyan Project, then I am not only the Cheng family but also the country's eternal sinner. ”

Liu Yan's eyes moistened: "Teacher Wang... Please don't say that..."

"Xiaoyan, this is a cruel reality. Xuedong is likely to miss this opportunity because of my illness. ”

Liu Yan's heart moved: "What do you want to do?" ”

"The thing I want to entrust you has to do with this."

"Oh, tell me about it."

Although Cheng Xuedong was not at home, Wang Shuzhen still lowered her voice and told Liu Yan her thoughts.

Liu Yan's expression was very embarrassed: "Teacher Wang... This... This can't be helped... Now is the time when you need Mr. Cheng. ”

Wang Shuzhen said with an awe-inspiring expression: "Ke Xuedong is not my personal, but more of a country." I can't be too selfish, or I'll make him regret it for the rest of his life. ”

Liu Yan's face was still entangled: "Have you thought it all out?" ”

Wang Shuzhen's attitude was categorical: "I am determined to do the following, even if I am broken, I can't drag Xuedong back!" ”

Liu Yan was finally infected, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll listen to your orders." ”

The next morning, Liu Yan did not go to work, but showed up at the hospital where Wang Shuzhen was treated.

When she wanted to hang up the expert number of endocrinology expert Liao Meifu, she was told that she had no number. After discussing to no avail, she simply walked to the door of the specialist's office and sat and waited for the specialist to appear.

In this way, she waited from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m., and she was the only one left outside the door when all the patients were gone. She immediately stood up and quietly went to pick the crack in the door...

Unexpectedly, just when she flashed a crack in the door of the outpatient room, the door suddenly opened under a strong pull, allowing her to suddenly meet the person who was about to come out.

She was startled, and quickly took a step back, and then looked intently at the people inside.

The person inside was an old man with gray hair who was over sixty years old, and it was Dr. Liao who was treating Wang Shuzhen. At this time, Dr. Liao had already taken off his white coat and was about to get off work.

"Girl, is there anything wrong with you?"

Liu Yan was looking at the other party's honor and the photo on the hospital expert column was exactly the same, confirming that he was the Liao expert he was looking for, and when he heard the other party take the lead in asking, he quickly nodded: "I came to you on purpose." ”

Dr. Liao looked at her in a daze: "Could it be that the girl is looking for me for a consultation?" ”

"Sort of."

"Do you have a number?"

Liu Yan shook her head: "I'm late, your number has been snatched up." ”

Dr. Liao shook his head: "I'm sorry, it's time for me to get off work, so I can't accept the doctor." ”

As soon as Liu Yan saw that the old expert was about to leave, he immediately spread out his arms and stopped the other party: "Don't go!" ”

Doctor Liao looked coldly at the woman in front of him who was lying to herself: "What does the girl want to do?" ”

Liu Yan showed a pitiful look: "I begged Dr. Liao for help." ”

Doctor Liao saw her suddenly pitiful appearance, and after a moment of stalemate, his heart gradually softened, and he slowly turned around: "Girl, come in." ”

"Good drop."

As soon as Liu Yan saw that there was a door, she couldn't help but sell her cuteness, and then entered the house and closed the door.

Dr. Liao sat back in his original position and motioned to Liu Yan: "Girl, please sit down." ”

Liu Yan did not sit in the position where the patient should be sitting, but said with a smile: "I'll just stand and talk to you." ”

Dr. Liao looked at her in a daze, feeling that she was full of vitality and couldn't see any sickness, so he had to ask, "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

Liu Yan hurriedly said: "I am not sick, but I ask you to do one thing on behalf of one of your patients." ”

Dr. Liao's expression quickly changed from confusion to consternation: "Which patient?" ”

"Wang Shuzhen!"

"Is that her?"

Liu Yan nodded: "Well, she is my colleague and my teacher. ”

Doctor Liao couldn't help but sigh: "She is already terminally ill, I'm afraid she won't have the skills to recover." I really can't save her. ”

Liu Yan's eyes moistened: "She is not begging you to save her, but to save her husband." ”

Doctor Liao was stunned: "The girl said it was Professor Cheng, right?" He's in good health. ”

But his heart was sick. Teacher Wang said that in just one night, his hair turned half white. If you don't prescribe a prescription for him, I'm afraid that the other half of his hair will turn gray by tonight. ”

Dr. Liao was completely confused: "What the hell is going on?" ”

Liu Yan hurriedly told Dr. Liao what Wang Shuzhen meant.

Doctor Liao's face became serious: "No." Professor Cheng, as a husband in the first place, should take care of his wife, who is already critically ill, how can he be allowed to evade this responsibility? ”

Liu Yan hurriedly explained: "This is what Teacher Wang meant, not Teacher Cheng." ”

"I know. Wang Shuzhen is really sick and confused, is it for the sake of her husband's career, let him regret emotionally for life? ”

Liu Yan's eyes suddenly blurred, and tears could no longer be kept in her eye sockets, flowing down her beautiful cheeks.

Seeing this, Dr. Liao looked at him suspiciously.

"Dr. Liao, for ordinary people, personal feelings should be above career. But Mr. Cheng is not... He belongs to the state... Could you please tell us about it? Comparison between the interests of the state and the feelings of the individual... Which is more important? ”

Doctor Liao was shocked, and immediately got up and pressed Liu Yan's shoulder: "Girl, don't get excited, sit down and talk slowly." ”

Liu Yan waved her sleeves to wipe her tears and sat down.

Dr. Liao was puzzled at this time: "What kind of career does Professor Cheng want to go out to engage in?" ”

Liu Yan hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head: "This is a matter of national secrets, so I can't reveal too much." But what he is doing is certainly about the country's cutting-edge technology, which is about the prestige of our entire nation in the world. ”

Doctor Liao was in awe: "Okay, don't say more, girl, I understand everything." ”

"Would you like to help with this?"

Dr. Liao couldn't help but sigh: "I am a doctor who treats diseases and saves people, but my medical skills can't cure a scientist's wife, but I want to use lies to save a scientist's career and life." ”

Besides, Cheng Xuedong has been completely confused in the past two days, one is that his wife needs to accompany him to complete the last journey of life, and the other is the opportunity for him to realize his life dream. It is difficult to choose between the two in the depths of his heart, and he is so anxious about these two dilemmas that he turns white overnight, which shows the degree of emotional torment of him.

Today, after his wife was asleep, he quietly walked out of the house alone and wandered on a famous bridge in Shangjiang City.

Since the Shangjiang River is called 'Jiang', there will definitely be the Yangtze River passing by it, and this bridge is naturally located on the rolling Yangtze River.

Cheng Xuedong walked to the center of the bridge, and his feet were facing the center of the Yangtze River, looking at the turbulent river below, Cheng Xuedong, who was about to be torn apart, suddenly had a pessimistic mood, and wanted to try to jump over the bridge railing into the surging river water, so that his broken soul could be completely liberated.
