Chapter 506: Five hundred and one, I have a set of Chinese medicine _1

In the hospital ward, there were quite a few people accompanying Qi Qi.

Including Qi Qi’s dad and many parents whom Boss Gu had not seen last time.

When he walked in with Tangtang, Qi Qi’s dad immediately stood up.

"Boss Gu, Tangtang," he said hurriedly.

As soon as Tangtang saw Qi Qi, she ran straight towards her, "Qi Qi!"

Qi Qi, who had been lying down listlessly, instantly brightened up at the sight of Tangtang.

Her whole spirit lifted significantly, and in a moment, she and Tangtang were embracing each other.

"Tangtang! How come you’re here! That’s great!" Qi Qi said, genuinely happy from the bottom of her heart.

"I’m here to see you!" Tangtang said with a smile.

Seeing the two of them so very happy, none of the parents interfered.

Given Qi Qi’s current condition, managing to smile was already quite an achievement.

"Qi Qi’s dad, I bought some nutritional supplements on the way here, but I’m not sure which ones Qi Qi can have, so please sort them out," Boss Gu told Qi Qi’s dad.

"Tangtang’s dad, you’re too polite, coming all this way and even bringing something," said Qi Qi’s dad.

Though he tried hard to squeeze out a smile, Boss Gu could tell that Qi Qi’s dad wasn’t in a great state of mind.

It was even clear that he had likely stayed up on countless nights.

Even what used to be lustrous black hair was starting to go white.

Those words "overnight, hair turning white" were not an exaggeration; that was exactly what had happened to Qi Qi’s dad.

"How has Qi Qi been doing lately?" Boss Gu asked Qi Qi’s dad.

"The doctor said it’s average; they’re doing their utmost to treat her.

I was thinking about transferring her to another hospital, but the doctors said that currently, there is no effective treatment anywhere in the world.

Even if we go abroad, it would be much the same. Not only are the treatment effects comparable to those here, but the expenses wouldn’t be any less," he said.

Boss Gu nodded upon hearing this; indeed, that was the reality.

The level of healthcare in the country was still far from sufficient, and it was almost the same elsewhere.

Because this disease itself is hard to treat, contracting it really just means waiting for death.

"Qi Qi’s family shouldn’t be too discouraged. The world is vast and full of wonders; perhaps a solution will be found in the future," Boss Gu reassured Qi Qi’s dad.

He didn’t know if there was a way, of course.

But it was certainly better than wallowing in despair alone.

Tears can’t save Qi Qi, can they? No matter how much one cries, it won’t change the truth.

"We should bring a better environment to Qi Qi, so she can feel a little happier every day instead of being so down all the time, which is also detrimental to her recovery,"

Boss Gu told Qi Qi’s dad.

He could sense that, perhaps because Boss Gu was very attentive to the feelings of children,

As soon as he entered, he noticed that Qi Qi was unhappy in this ward, always looking oppressed.

Boss Gu worried that if this went on, it could lead to a worsening of Qi Qi’s condition.

Once a person falls ill, whether they can recover or not is highly related to their mindset. A poor mindset can easily lead to tragic consequences.

Take, for instance, an experiment he had read about where a person is tied to a chair and blindfolded.

In an utterly silent environment, a basin of water is placed behind them, under the chair.

Then, something very cool was drawn across this person’s wrist.

Finally, a fake water pipe was tied to the rope above.

The water continuously trickled down, falling into the basin, and the drip-drip sound was the only thing this person could hear in the quiet room.

This experiment lasted for three days, and when they returned to the site on the third day,

they found the person who had been tied to the chair was completely dead.

There were many strange things about the situation, firstly, the person had not suffered any physical harm.

That is, relying on his own bodily functions, he should have been able to survive for at least five days with no problem.

But how did he die? The investigation revealed that he had literally scared himself to death.

The sound of water dropping into the basin made him feel as though it was his own blood.

The cool object that had traced his wrist—in his sensory world, it was nothing but a knife cutting across his wrist.

Therefore, he believed he was on the brink of death, and thus he died.

Similarly, he felt that Qi Qi was now in the same situation, her hands being tied.

The grave expressions on their faces seemed to tell Qi Qi that she was about to die.

Let alone Qi Qi, who is so young, even an adult couldn’t stand such pressure.

After hearing Boss Gu’s suggestion, Qi Qi’s father also understood what he meant.

"Indeed, this is an issue we had previously overlooked.

Sigh, there’s nothing to be done, after all, it’s truly difficult to keep one’s spirits up with this kind of thing.

I often wonder, how did I come across such a thing, have I ever done something wrong? Is this punishment from the heavens, I really don’t understand.

Our Qi Qi is such a good child, if you, the heavens, have any complaints, why not direct them all at me? Why specifically target our Qi Qi, what’s the meaning of this?"

As he spoke, Qi Qi’s father was filled with anger.

This rage, in fact, was not directed at anyone in particular, it was just his unwillingness to accept the situation.

Or perhaps he was indeed venting his anger toward the heavens.

Boss Gu could completely understand his state of mind; he felt that if he were in the same position, he might not be able to remain any calmer than him.

After all, it was his daughter, and who as a father wouldn’t feel heartbroken and aggrieved?

Boss Gu guessed that Qi Qi’s father must have cried secretly many times.

"If there’s anything that can save Qi Qi, I am willing to spend all I have.

In the past, I thought money was the most important thing, but now I realize that people are far more important.

What’s the worth of money? Money is just an external object, after all, when compared with human life, it means nothing."

He shared these recent insights with Boss Gu with emotion.

Boss Gu listened in silence for a while and did not respond to this very sharp question.

He had understood the principle that people are more important than money on the very first day of his rebirth.

So, as long as Tangtang and Ji Pianran were happy, he was willing to do anything.

At that moment, Boss Gu suddenly remembered something.

"Before, people from my hometown gave me a prescription for traditional Chinese medicine.

It doesn’t have any other effects; it’s mainly used to adjust the body. Let me go get that medicine and take a look at it, shall we?"
