Lingzheng was embarrassed, "No..."
"Okay." Father Ling said, "Last time your mother came over to make trouble, I also know that she made things difficult for you and made you feel uncomfortable. There is nothing I can do about this phone call. Your mother was not feeling well a while ago and went to the hospital for surgery. After the examination and the results came out, the doctor said she had a brain tumor and she might not have much time left."
"What?"
Ling Zheng's face changed slightly.
Although she disliked Ling's mother very much and hated Ling's mother for favoring boys over girls and beating and scolding her, she was the one who gave birth to her after all.
"Dad, how about... you take mom to Sioux City for a check-up. This is a big city and the medical treatment is more developed. Then we can see if we can do an operation to remove the tumor... ..”
"No need, I took your mother to the provincial hospital to see her before. The hospital said her tumor was too big and it would be easy to damage her nerves once operated on. The doctor said there was only a 5% certainty. If you don’t cut it, your mother can live for a while, but if the operation fails, she will die on the spot.”
Father Ling sighed, "I know you don't like your mother. She used to be very harsh on you, but she is your mother after all, Ling Zheng. The Chinese New Year is coming soon. You should come back early. Your mother may be sick because of her illness." Went there anytime."
Ling Zheng felt sour in her heart, "Okay, let me see if I can let the boss take annual leave early."
"Why."
After hanging up the phone, Ling Zheng's eyes turned red.
Cheng Xi asked quickly, "What's wrong? Your mother is sick?"
"Well, my dad said my mom had a brain tumor." Ling Zheng's mind went blank and she couldn't think properly. "He said the tumor was quite big and he also went to the provincial hospital. The doctor said the risk of surgery was only 5%. Once it fails, it may go away faster, and my family means that there will be no need for surgery.”
Pei Yanzhou nodded, "Indeed, if the success rate is not high, the doctor does not advocate surgery."
Ling Zheng had no appetite for breakfast now. She put down her chopsticks and said, "I want to go to the company early to see if I can take annual leave in advance and go back to my hometown."
"etc......."
Cheng Xi suddenly stopped her, "Ling Zheng, are you sure what your father said is true? You forgot that the last time your mother and your brother came to Su City to find you, they almost made you lose your job. They just wanted to You can go back to your hometown to work and let you follow their arrangements to get married."
It took Ling Zheng a while to react, "You think my dad is lying to me, that's not possible. Who would lie to someone about something like this?"
"Cheng Xi said it's not impossible."
Lu Chongli also had a serious look on his face. He had dealt with Ling Zheng's family and knew a little bit about their character. "Can you ask your dad to give you a certificate of tumor? I mean, if they lie to you, You go back to your hometown alone and are helpless. No one can help you if you encounter anything. Ling Zheng, never underestimate the bottom line of others, even your biological parents."
Lingzheng was stunned for a moment.
Cheng Xi also agreed, "Just tell me that you know someone in the hospital here in Su City, and see if you can ask your dad to send your mom's medical records. Then let your friends take a look. Asking a few more big hospitals will always help. I have some hope. If he evades vaguely, it must be false. Anyway, you must not believe it easily before I show it to you. Even if it is shown to you, you should keep an eye on it when you get home."
Lingzheng nodded blankly.
She immediately picked up her mobile phone and called Ling's father back, "Dad, I have a friend who is a doctor at Su City Hospital. Send me Mom's medical records. I will ask my friend to ask the brain doctor at Su City Hospital. Let’s see if there is any other solution for Mom’s illness.”
"Is there any other way? Our provincial hospital is no worse than Sioux City Hospital and is ranked among the best in the country. So don't mess around."
Ling Zheng said, "No, if you ask more, there might be different treatment options. Dad, it's not a big deal. Just take a picture and show it to me."
"Okay, wait a minute, I'm outside now, I'll go back and take pictures for you later."
After hanging up the phone, Father Ling's face suddenly turned gloomy.
Ling's mother on the side asked, "What do you mean by that damn girl? When will she come back?"
