Pretty and charming, dressed in the 90s, she's good at everything from making money to causing

Watching Lin's father's departing figure, Lin belatedly recalled a scene from the original book—

Su Yu suffered a heart attack once, but Chen Jun chose to ignore it in order to show his love for Zheng Miaoying. Then, Su Yu died.

Lin Ting had long forgotten this part of the story.

In fact, she had almost forgotten that she had transmigrated into a book.

Thinking of this, Lin Ting began frantically recalling when this part of the story had happened.

And then... I can't remember.

That memory is too blurry; I can't remember it at all.

But no matter what, death must be due to a serious illness.

She turned her head to look at Su Yu on the hospital bed, her expression extremely serious.

Her nervousness was contagious, and Teacher He asked softly, "Lin Ting, what does your father mean?"

Lin came to her senses and realized that she should know nothing right now, so she said, "Maybe they want to work with Uncle Su to discuss the issue of 8 a.m. with you."

Teacher He: "..."

If she weren't a teacher, if this weren't a hospital, if... she would have slapped her!

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs." All Teacher He could do was glare at her, glaring at her with all her might.

……

Mr. Lin led Mr. Su straight to the office of the head of cardiac surgery.

"Old Liu, take a look at this." Lin's father shoved the medical report in front of Director Liu. "I just asked about the child's condition. He has congenital heart disease and has always been weak."

Director Liu rolled his eyes at Lin's father: "I just sat down and you're already giving me trouble."

Despite his complaints, his hand had already naturally picked up the examination form.

"Is this... a cold?"

"Yes, she has a fever and is getting an injection over there." Lin's father pulled up two chairs, gesturing for Su's father to sit down as well.

Su's father was extremely nervous, his hands clenched into fists and pressed against his knees.

"This situation... let me take a look." Director Liu frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "The electrocardiogram does look a bit off, but Lao Lin, why did you bring your people here?"

“She’s my daughter’s college classmate,” Mr. Lin said. “I went to see her on my way after my surgery.”

He gestured towards the electrocardiogram report with his lip: "It's so obvious, how could I not see it?"

"Don't pretend with me." Director Liu glared at him again.

The Western medical system is complex and has many different sub-specialties, making it difficult to diagnose and treat patients across different categories. Even the best cardiologist may not be able to perform an appendectomy properly.

Lin's father waved his hand: "I'm not going to pretend with you. Take a good look. The child is a top student. His life has just begun. Don't delay him."

"Use your words."

Director Liu turned to look at Su's father: "Are you the child's father?"

“Yes.” Su’s father finally uttered the first word before entering the office.

He swallowed nervously, glanced at Lin's father, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Doctor, just tell me the truth, I... I can handle it."

Director Liu asked, "Do you have any recent test results? Within the last three months?"

Mr. Su shook his head: "The child has been quite healthy lately and hasn't had any problems, so we haven't done any checkups..."

"so……"

Director Liu spoke slowly, pausing for a moment before saying:

"Comrade, I'm not trying to scam you out of your money for the tests. This money goes to the hospital anyway, it won't end up in my hands... But judging from the results of the child's electrocardiogram, her condition doesn't look good..."

"The results from the electrocardiogram are very limited. I'll listen to her heart first, but I suggest you take her for a detailed examination. Then I'll consult with my colleagues in the cardiology department to discuss whether to opt for conservative treatment or surgery."

Mr. Su nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I understand. Then... shall I go register?"

Su's father trusted doctors a lot because he had no one else he could trust.

His mother once mentioned that Xiaoyu would face a hurdle when she turned nineteen; if she could overcome it, her life would be smooth sailing, but if she couldn't... then she wouldn't make it.

"No need, it's just a small matter."

Director Liu picked up his stethoscope, pulled his white coat tighter, and walked out. As he passed the nurses' station, he casually greeted them and told them where he was going.

On the way, he chatted with Lin's father: "Ting'er's classmate?"

"Yes, he's a really good kid, he's doing exceptionally well in his studies," Lin's father casually said. "He's a pillar of the nation, you can't ignore him."

"As long as they are not traitors, I will take care of them."

Director Liu patted his chest to assure him, then turned to ask Su's father about Su Yu's situation.

He asked very detailed questions, from childhood to adulthood, asking about almost every illness and medication he had taken.

Su's father wiped his face and said softly, "The child has really gotten better these past few months... I thought everything was fine..."

Director Liu patted him on the shoulder, offering silent comfort.

Illness can be quite deceptive sometimes; it can suddenly subside for a while, making you lower your guard, and then in the next second it can wreak havoc.

"Then... how much will the surgery cost?" Su's father asked.

It's not that he's pessimistic, it's just that you have to prepare for these things in advance.

"This will cost about four or five thousand yuan." Director Liu did not shy away from the issue of money. "We also need to prepare some money for the subsequent treatment."

Su's father froze, almost tripping over himself.

Over the years, he has saved almost all the money he could, and sold everything his company gave him that he could sell.

He had been saving money for his daughter's illness, but all he had saved was a mere eight hundred yuan.

Lin's father noticed his embarrassment and comforted him, "Let's see how it goes. Maybe we won't need surgery."

Su's father managed a weak smile, but his heart felt like it was weighed down by a huge rock, and he couldn't relax at all.

"We're here, this is the room."

They returned to the ward, where Su Yu was still unconscious.

"Hello, Uncle Liu," Lin Ting greeted politely.

"Hello." Director Liu nodded with a smile, then said, "Ting'er, help your uncle take off your classmate's coat."

"it is good."

Lin Ting knew that this meant a heart check was to be performed, so he quickly stepped forward to help Su Yu take off her coat.

Zheng Miaoying subtly stopped her, saying, "Let me do it."

When it comes to taking care of people, Yingzi has absolutely no trust in Tingting.

Don't ask, the answer is that she remembered the pins that stood at attention on the table that day.

Zheng Miaoying gently unbuttoned Su Yu's coat and pulled up her sweater, leaving her only in her shirt.

She didn't forget to pull the blanket up a little to cover Su Yu's stomach so she wouldn't catch a cold again.

Director Liu stepped forward with his stethoscope, habitually frowning as he listened carefully.

"Boom-thump-thump-"

The ward was extremely quiet; everyone felt as if they could hear their own heartbeats.

Su's father watched from the side, his fists clenched so tightly that they began to tremble slightly.

After a long pause, Director Liu took off his stethoscope and said seriously to Su's father, "Don't let her go back to school. Go straight to the cardiology department and be hospitalized for examination."

"what?"

Apart from Lin's father, everyone stared at Director Liu in astonishment.
