Chapter 5: The Way to Save the Father
When he arrived, Jiang Fan was sitting outside the emergency room with his head down, looking very lost and sad.
An indescribable feeling welled up in Ye Xun's heart, once upon a time, he had to take a back seat because of his body.
Ill, this terrible opponent has dashed the dreams of many chess geniuses.
Now seeing Jiang Xingbo, who is suffering from the same illness as him, Ye Xun can't help but be touched, not to mention Jiang Xingbo's status in his heart, even Jiang Fan's current appearance makes him unbearable.
"What's going on?" Ye Xun silently walked to Jiang Fan's side and asked softly.
"If you have a sudden myocardial infarction, you have to do surgery immediately." Jiang Fan hugged his head in pain, although this kind of operation is not a major operation for the hospital, the medical expenses are very huge, and all the equipment used in the operation is imported.
Jiang Fan had exhausted the last bit of money in the family before, and now eating is a problem, where is the extra money to go to the doctor.
Ye Xun was silent, although he didn't know the current situation in Jiang Fan's house, he could vaguely guess a hint of signs.
If Jiang Fan's family was really rich, it would be impossible for such a young child to wear such shabby clothes, and he would not embark on the road of no return to "color chess" at such a young age.
"I really want to help him, but all the extra money has been donated to the Hope Project, and now he has less than 20,000 yuan on him, is this what people say that a penny is difficult for a hero?"
Ye Xun felt bitter in his heart, if he really had the ability, it would be okay to help Jiang Fan now, but he also had something unspeakable.
A dignified Chinese Go master can't even take out tens of thousands of yuan, and I'm afraid it will make people laugh out of their big teeth when they say it.
Just when Ye Xun looked at Jiang Fan, Jiang Fan's heart was already in a mess, and he had already asked the doctor.
In this operation, his father had to put up a total of three stents, and one stent cost a little more than 30,000 yuan.
Combined with the recovery period after the surgery, the total medical expenses may exceed 120,000 yuan.
120,000, this kind of astronomical number Jiang Fan has never heard of since he was a child in Dalian, let alone let him take it out at once, every time he thinks of it, Jiang Fan's heart is filled with weakness and sadness.
I don't know when, a doctor has slowly come to Jiang Fan with a signed book, and said, "Little friend, where is your mother?" Now your dad has to have surgery, or his life will be in danger at any time. ”
"My mom has died." Jiang Fan's eyes were already covered with a layer of mist, and when he whispered this sentence, his body was already shaky, and the people who watched it felt pity.
Indeed, this kind of thing weighs too heavily on a teenager.
The doctor opened his mouth and wanted to remind Jiang Fan several times, but he couldn't say anything when he said such cruel words, and finally let out a long sigh and said softly: "You think about it again, ten minutes at most." ”
The doctor's gentle words were like a sharp knife that pierced the weakest place in Jiang Fan's heart, 10 minutes, these 10 minutes may be the countdown to his father's life.
Before he knew it, Jiang Fan's lips had bitten out blood and flowed down the corners of his mouth.
If he could, he would have tried his best to save his father's life, but with his current ability, he could only go so far.
It was a joke that fate played with him, a cruel and cold joke.
Jiang Fan covered his mouth with his sleeve fiercely, his shoulders shrugged slightly, and he cried silently.
Looking at Jiang Fan's appearance, even if Ye Xun's heart was like an iron stone, it was melted at this time, how cruel the world would be for such a young child to bear so many things.
"I can help you." Ye Xun finally couldn't help it and said this.
At this moment, Jiang Fan suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Xun haggardly, as if he had seen the last straw, and his eyes were filled with dead hope.
"What should I do?" Perhaps because he was too excited, Jiang Fan's voice became very dry, as if two pieces of iron were rubbing together.
Seeing the light in Jiang Fan's eyes, Ye Xun was shocked again.
I don't know how long it took to react, and I told myself fiercely in my heart, "You can't let him rely on my help, it's just hurting him." ”
Thinking of this, Ye Xun finally spoke: "Worship me as a teacher, I can find a way to save your father." ”
Jiang Fan's face turned cold, his eyes were bloodshot like vines, and his eyes were densely covered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the entire corridor was shrouded in a vicious atmosphere.
Maybe it was a moment, maybe it was a long time, Jiang Fan finally made a decision and said, "Yes." But how do you do it? ”
"I have 20,000 yuan here, you can pay it in advance first, and let the doctor operate on your father......" Before Ye Xun's words fell, Jiang Fan's face was already gloomy as if dripping water, and violent anger suddenly welled up in his heart.
In Huaxia, no matter which profession it is, apprenticeship is a big deal. The ancients said that the status of a master is equivalent to that of a father in the family.
If Ye Xun could really settle his father's surgery fee at one time, it would be equivalent to saving Jiang Xingbo's life.
No matter what happened to Ye Xun, Jiang Fan also recognized the fact that he was a master, and naturally regarded him as a father-like existence in the future.
But this guy only has 20,000, which can only be counted as one-sixth of the entire operation fee, for this to worship a person who doesn't know what the details are as a master, how can Jiang Fan not be angry.
"Really!" Jiang Fan slapped the chair and got erect, as if a volcano was about to erupt, very manic.
Seeing Jiang Fan's sudden anger, Ye Xun was also stunned, but he quickly figured out the key, slapped his forehead continuously, and shouted in his heart that he had miscalculated.
At this time, Jiang Fan had already turned around quickly and was about to leave.
Ye Xun was in a hurry, rushed forward with an arrow step, grabbed Jiang Fan's arm, and shouted: "What are you anxious about, I have a way to help your father collect all the surgery fees." ”
"What?"
Jiang Fan turned around suddenly, and a glimmer of hope rose in his heart, although he was still haunted by what happened just now, but now only the person in front of him had a way, so he could only stop and see what Ye Xun had to say.
Jiang Fan's eyes burned, and Ye Xun's forehead unconsciously burst into drops of sweat.
Just now he just said this eagerly and casually, and his solution was not to borrow some money from a few old friends. But isn't this contrary to his original intention, and he was embarrassed for a while, and he didn't know how to explain it.
Just glanced at it, Jiang Fan's eyes showed a lot of disappointment, this guy in front of him was completely a god. He is not an ordinary child, because of the difficulties at home, he has been in and out of various chess halls since he was very young, and he is used to seeing all kinds of people, and he is particularly precocious.
Seeing Ye Xun like this, he didn't know that he was just trying to stabilize what he said casually, and a trace of sadness surged in his heart, and he was about to turn around and leave again.
Ye Xun was in a hurry, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, a vague idea emerged, he grabbed Jiang Fan's arm, and shouted in shame: "What are you anxious about, I really have a way." ”
Just now, Ye Xun suddenly remembered that before coming to Hecheng, an old friend had said that Xijing, the provincial capital more than 150 kilometers away from Hecheng, seemed to have a Go competition in recent days.
With his identity, he only needs to make a phone call and ask those old friends to send a letter of recommendation to the competition, and Jiang Fan can participate in the competition logically.
And if he remembers correctly, the champion can not only be given the professional title of amateur 5th dan, but also a bonus of 100,000 yuan, plus his 20,000 yuan, Jiang Xingbo's medical expenses should be enough.
In terms of the strength shown by Jiang Fan, it is definitely above the amateur 5th stage, as long as he plays normally, there should be no big problem in winning this competition, so Ye Xun shouted out without even thinking about it.
Jiang Fan looked at Ye Xun suspiciously, wanting to see what Ye Xun could do.
Now that he has thought of a way, Ye Xun stopped being verbose and quickly explained his plan.
Listening to Ye Xun's plan, Jiang Fan's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Although he had never participated in the competition, he knew that it was not easy to parachute a contestant into the competition, so it could be seen that Ye Xun's identity was absolutely extraordinary, and his face couldn't help but soften.
"If what you say is true, after the game, no matter what the result is, I will look to you as a teacher."
Ye Xun helped him with all his might, even if Jiang Fan's heart was like steel, he gradually softened at this time, and bowed respectfully to Ye Xun.
Ye Xun breathed a sigh of relief and patted Jiang Fan on the shoulder: "Without further ado, I'll go and pay some medical expenses first, and you can prepare." After all, Xijing is a long way away, and during your absence, I will take care of your father. ”
"Thank you, uncle, I don't know what you call it?"
Ye Xun did Jiang Fan such a big favor, Jiang Fan only remembered at this time, but until now he didn't know the name of the kind-hearted person in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
It seemed that he had seen through Jiang Fan's thoughts, and Ye Xun was also a little embarrassed in his heart, but in order to maintain his image as a master, he only coughed a few times and said casually: "When you return from the crown, you will naturally know my name, go ahead......"
Jiang Fan was in awe, and hurriedly bowed to Ye Xun again, there is a way to be a great grace without thanks, without saying much, he turned around and left directly......
