Chapter 343 Conjoined Sisters: Family Ties Above All Else (3)
Dou Xuesong tried to get up from the ground, but the pain became even more intense.
He let out a wail, his face covered in sweat and his whole body trembling.
She finally managed to take out her phone and call an ambulance, but before the ambulance arrived, she passed out again.
Soon, the ambulance arrived and took him to the hospital.
After the examination, the doctors were shocked.
In the middle of the night, even the hospital director was summoned to the hospital.
A person has no wounds on their body, but their internal organs are all those of a pig. What is the principle behind this?
Just to be on the safe side, they discreetly arranged for Dou Xuesong to be admitted to the hospital, without even urging him to pay the hospital fees.
Then they secretly called a reputable hospital and had it send a more capable specialist for a consultation.
Seeing how seriously the hospital was taking it, Dou Xuesong was terrified. Could he have contracted some serious illness?
"Doctor, how much longer do I have to live?" He felt he was about to die.
"Have you ever had any health problems before? Or have you ever had any surgeries?" the doctor asked seriously.
"No, what's wrong? Is it already terminal?" Dou Xuesong's face instantly turned even more pale.
"Who else is in your family?" the doctor asked again.
"Doctor, you can just tell me what's wrong." Dou Xuesong was already certain that he had an incurable disease.
"There's no one left in the family?" the doctor pressed.
"I also have an older sister, but I don't get along with her very well..."
"Call her and have her come to the hospital for a checkup," the doctor said, turning and leaving.
Dou Xuesong was taken aback. This doctor must be seriously ill!
Not only did he not answer his questions, but he also couldn't understand what he was saying?
The siblings don't get along and haven't been in contact for years. Besides, he's sick, so why would he send that woman to the hospital for a checkup?
In the conference room, the hospital director and a group of expert physicians held an emergency meeting.
We attach great importance to the first case of a human whose internal organs have the characteristics of those of a pig, yet the person can still live a normal life.
Their research on Dou Xuesong might lead to breakthroughs in the history of human medicine.
But this matter could not be told to Dou Xuesong; it had to be done in private.
Although Dou Xuesong did not allow his sister to come to the hospital, the hospital did not care and arranged for him to be secretly transferred to another hospital the next day.
It's better without family involvement; it saves a lot of trouble.
From then on, Dou Xuesong lost contact with everyone and disappeared without a trace.
Su Dingding was quite satisfied with this outcome.
Let him be the test subject first; that would be a contribution to all of humanity.
And she also has more time to spend with her family.
Of course, it also depends on whether this family is worth her time.
Now, her internal organs are at risk of rejection at any time, so she needs to be very careful in her daily life.
Extra attention needs to be paid to everything, including food, clothing, and living environment.
Moreover, several more surgeries will be needed in the future. Although the hospital has reduced some of the medical expenses, the financial burden is still very heavy.
"Xinxin," Ye Lan knocked on the door, "may Mom come in?"
"Come in." Su Dingding lay on the bed, and Gangzi quietly slipped into her collar.
"Breakfast is ready. The doctor said you can only eat this much at each meal." Ye Lan placed the plate on the small table. "After you recover from your next surgery and are discharged from the hospital, Xin Xin can eat a little more."
"Mom, you don't need to bring food to my room anymore. I can just go out to eat." Su Dingding thought it was too much trouble.
"Mom will bring it in for you. That way, we can control the amount. Besides, you can only eat this much each time, and it can't be too meaty. I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable watching us eat." Ye Lan stroked Su Dingding's head tenderly. "Xin Xin, Mom has always felt very sorry for you. You've suffered so much all these years."
"Mom, my sister and I are very grateful to you. If it weren't for your insistence, we wouldn't have had the chance to be born." Su Dingding could tell that Ye Lan truly loved her two daughters.
Ye Lan's eyes reddened, and she nodded. "Eat quickly, you can't eat cold food."
Watching her leave, it seemed she secretly wiped away her tears.
When Tang Caocheng saw her come out, he asked cautiously, "Didn't she think the food was too simple? Were we deliberately being mean to her?"
"Xinxin has grown up and is so sensible that it breaks my heart." Ye Lan could no longer hold back her tears.
Tang Xuan was also feeling bad; his sister had become like this because of her.
She only had a small portion of her internal organs, and even her bones were artificially synthesized. The skin and flesh from her disabled legs were transplanted onto her body, and it was a miracle that she survived.
She will suffer many more times in the future, and each surgery is dangerous; just thinking about it terrifies her.
"Mom and Dad, I've almost recovered now. I can't go back to the circus, so I want to look for other work." Staying at home all the time isn't good either. Tang Xuan thought that since she was healthy, she should take on the responsibilities of the family.
Although my heart is filled with fear of the unknown, I must take this step.
She will no longer have her younger sister by her side, and she doesn't know if she can face this complicated society.
“Xuanxuan, you were just discharged from the hospital a few days ago. The doctor said you need to rest for at least six months. Let’s wait a little longer,” Ye Lan disagreed.
Tang Caocheng also advised, "I'm worried about you going out with your personality. I don't have the confidence to protect you. What if you get bullied?"
“But Xin Xin needs to have surgery soon, which will cost a lot of money…” Tang Xuan felt useless, unable to do anything about it.
"Take good care of Xin Xin at home, and take good care of yourself too. Don't worry about making money." Ye Lan put some food on Tang Xuan's plate.
“Although we had two daughters before, I always felt a knot in my heart,” Tang Caocheng said with a sigh of relief. “Now it’s different. Your mom and I are both very motivated, and we have more hope for the future. At least if your mom and I are gone one day, you will take care of Xinxin…”
Su Dingding stood at the door of the room and heard everything they were saying.
She glanced at the bland food Ye Lan had brought her, but she didn't want to eat a single bite.
So she was secretly munching on fried chicken. After all, she wasn't an ordinary patient who couldn't eat this or that, but she ate whatever she wanted.
[Host, speaking of which, the original owner's parents were quite remarkable. Don't be fooled by their small house, lack of car, and lack of fine food or clothing; they spent over a million yuan on their two daughters!] Gangzi thought they were amazing.
"So many?" Su Dingding was also taken aback.
"Moreover, the debt is less than 100,000 yuan. Ye Lan earns a little over 4,000 yuan a month, and Tang Caocheng works 14 hours a day. He works very hard, but he earns more than 10,000 yuan a month. He doesn't eat or dress well and spends it all on his daughter," Gangzi explained.
Su Dingding took another bite of the chicken leg. It seemed that the most urgent thing right now was to find a way to make money.
Otherwise, in a few years when they get old and their health collapses, it will be a loss for them.
She was hesitating about what kind of work to do to earn money when she heard someone knocking impatiently on the door.
"Tang Xin, open the door..."
[Host, she's Dou Xuesong's new girlfriend!]
