Chapter 138: The Drug That Can Cure a Coma (1/2)

“No… no, I’m not here to urge you to pay the medical bills. You can repay whenever you want!” Director Mu smiled bitterly.

If this drug that can cure Coma patients truly succeeded, he wouldn’t even mind waiving all of Wen Yuanyuan’s mother’s medical bills.

After all, it was a patient who had been in a coma for five years! If their hospital cured such a patient, its reputation would rise to a new level.

Moreover, if this drug was successfully used in their hospital, once it became widely available, their hospital would certainly be one of the first to receive it.

Who knows, in the future, any new drugs developed might be sent to their hospital for clinical trials first…

Thinking about this, Director Mu couldn’t help but become excited.

“So… Director Mu, why did you personally call me?” Wen Yuanyuan asked, her heart growing even more uneasy.

Ever since her mother’s car accident, Wen Yuanyuan had developed an inexplicable fear of calls from the hospital. In her experience, hospital calls rarely brought good news.

Her mother had been asleep for five years, and Wen Yuanyuan knew that the chances of her mother waking up were very slim, so the news must be…

At this thought, Wen Yuanyuan’s heart sank, and her hand holding the phone began to tremble slightly, her eyes misting over. “Director Mu, is it about my mother…”

“Your mother is fine.” Sensing Wen Yuanyuan’s unstable emotions, Director Mu got straight to the point: “Here’s the thing, the country has recently developed a drug that can cure coma patients. However, it is still in the clinical trial stage, and our hospital received a batch of this drug. Your mother happens to meet the requirements for its use, so I wanted to ask for your opinion.”

“Huh?” Wen Yuanyuan was momentarily stunned, speaking blankly: “A drug that can cure coma patients…?”

“Yes, but because the drug is still in clinical trials, we can’t guarantee its effectiveness. Right now, we can offer it to your mother for free if you agree. You can come to the hospital tonight to sign the paperwork.”

After a brief daze, Wen Yuanyuan snapped out of it, still feeling like she was dreaming. Her fingers, gripping the phone tightly, had turned slightly purple without her noticing due to the pressure.

“I… I agree!” After a long pause, Wen Yuanyuan finally responded.

“Alright, then please come to the hospital tonight to sign the documents.” With that, Director Mu hung up the phone.

After putting down the phone, Wen Yuanyuan stared at the screen in silence for a long time.

“Congratulations.” Liu Su, who hadn’t deliberately avoided hearing Wen Yuanyuan’s phone call, smiled lightly and offered her congratulations, seeing Wen Yuanyuan still staring blankly at her phone.

“Thank you, but… I’m still so scared.” Putting away her phone, Wen Yuanyuan’s expression grew more anxious. “Liu Su, do you think… could that phone call have been a scam?”

“What would be the point of scamming you like that? Just to toy with you?” Watching Shen Cheng walk into the hospital with a suitcase, Liu Su, who knew the drug was real, confidently reassured her, “Don’t worry. That call was definitely from the director of Lingshi Central Hospital.”

“Even if that’s true… my luck has never been good. What if the drug doesn’t work…”

“Come on!” Liu Su patted Wen Yuanyuan’s shoulder and comforted her, “Have faith. This is a drug developed by the country. Since it’s said to cure coma patients, there should be no problem. Trust our country.”
