At nearly five o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning drove back to Zijinyuan Community.
Then, the two of them each carried a dozen cardboard boxes and took the elevator to the top floor of the residential building where they lived.
The moment the elevator door opened, Yu Zhiming saw a girl sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of her door, playing with her mobile phone with her head lowered.
Next to this girl, squatting was a thin girl with a high ponytail and a fair complexion.
"Brother Zhiming..."
Yu Zhiming looked at Qi Xin who quickly got up from the ground with a smile on his face, and criticized with a straight face: "You know, your parents are looking for you everywhere. They are worried to death."
Qi Xin's face collapsed, and he showed a pitiful expression that looked like he was about to cry.
"Brother Zhiming, I have no home."
Yu Zhiming threw the cardboard box in his arms on the ground and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
"Nonsense, you have two families."
"Brother Zhiming, if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather, and similarly, if there is a stepfather, there will be a stepmother. Neither home is my home anymore."
Yu Zhiming's heart softened and he advised: "Don't worry about it, your parents love you."
"No matter what, let your parents know that you are okay first, so that they will not be worried about you."
While talking, Yu Zhiming dialed Teacher Qi’s phone number.
"Teacher, Qi Xin is waiting for me at the door."
"She's fine."
Yu Zhiming handed the phone to Qi Xin again, "Hurry up and say something to your dad."
Qi Xin didn't answer the phone, wrinkled her nose, moved closer to the phone, and shouted impatiently: "I'm fine, don't worry about it."
After saying this, she reached out and tapped on the screen of her phone to end the call.
What a rebellious child.
Yu Zhiming muttered in his heart, knowing that the teacher already knew that Qi Xin was fine, he did not call again.
He unlocked the door with his fingerprint.
"Come in!"
"Hey, clean the dust off your butt first."
Qi Xin handed the mobile phone in his hand to the girl with high ponytail next to him, and slapped his butt a few times.
Then, she pulled the girl with a high ponytail's clothes and followed Qing Ning into the house.
"Brother Zhiming, isn't your family too small?"
"Brother Zhiming, what are you doing with so many cardboard boxes?"
Yu Zhiming ignored the little guy and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Qi Xin looked at Qing Ning again and asked, "Beautiful sister, are you brother Zhiming's girlfriend?"
Gu Qingning looked at the chattering Qi Xin, smiled and said: "You guessed it right, I am Gu Qingning, the girlfriend of your brother Zhiming."
"You guys sit on the sofa and take a rest first!"
"Are you thirsty?"
"Qi Xin, what would you and your friends want to drink?"
Qi Xin replied: "Fresh juice, milk, and mineral water are all fine, but no drinks or soda."
Li Li warmed four cups of milk in the microwave...
When Yu Zhiming came out of the bathroom, he saw Qi Xin Gudong Gudong drinking up a glass of milk in just a few sips.
The girl with a high ponytail sitting next to her was holding the cup and taking small sips to drink.
Qi Xin noticed Yu Zhiming's gaze and introduced: "Brother Zhiming, she is a friend I met in the game arcade."
"Wen Ling!"
"She is very good at catching dolls."
During Qi Xin's introduction, Wen Ling put down her cup and stood up with some restraint, her head lowered and her voice like a gnat.
"Hello, Dr. Yu! I'm sorry to bother you."
Yu Zhiming lowered his voice unconsciously, for fear of frightening this thin and fair-skinned girl.
"You're welcome, and thank you for accompanying Qi Xin and not letting her run around."
Qi Xin snorted unconvinced: "Brother Zhiming, I'm over sixteen years old. In ancient times, I could get married and have children, and I wouldn't be able to lose them if I ran around."
After a pause, she pointed at Wen Ling again.
"Brother Zhiming, her heart is not very good. Can you help her take a look?"
"Is your heart not feeling well?" Yu Zhiming looked at Wen Ling.
Wen Ling's originally lowered head became even lower.
"I have congenital heart disease."
"Qi Xin said, you are a very good doctor, there is no disease that you cannot cure."
"I took the liberty of following her."
When Qi Xin saw Yu Zhiming's gaze coming over again, he smiled guiltily.
Yu Zhiming looked at Wen Ling again.
"How old are you?"
"Almost eighteen."
These words made Qi Xin couldn't help but scream, "You are already eighteen years old? Are you two years older than me?"
"I thought you were only thirteen or fourteen years old at most."
"Hey, I called you sister a few times, why didn't you correct me?"
Wen Ling blushed and explained: "My heart is not very good, and my physical development is somewhat delayed."
Yu Zhiming asked again: "Wen Ling, the sooner congenital heart disease is treated, the better. Why have you delayed it until now?"
Wen Ling whispered: "Both my parents are working and don't have enough money to give me surgery."
"The doctor also said that the risks of surgery are somewhat high."
Yu Zhiming said softly, "Well, let me check it for you."
He asked Wen Ling to lie on the sofa, put on surgical gloves, and performed a check on her heart.
The test result is not good.
Wen Ling was born with a congenital heart malformation. The shape of her heart is not a normal heart shape, but slightly like an ugly green apple.
Not only that, Yu Zhiming also discovered that her heart had a ventricular septal defect, and her left atrium and left ventricle were significantly smaller.
Moreover, the coronary arteries are also somewhat twisted.
Qi Xin saw Yu Zhiming's heavy face and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Zhiming, is the situation not good?"
Yu Zhiming replied frankly: "Wen Ling has a heart malformation. Her condition can only be treated through surgery."
"I'm a physician, and I can't perform such a complex surgery to correct cardiac malformations."
Qi Xin spoke again: "Brother Zhiming, you know many capable doctors, can you ask them to help?"
This...
Yu Zhiming saw Wen Ling clenching her fists, looking at him nervously and expectantly, and sighed softly.
"It's okay, it's okay."
"It's just that the risk of heart malformation correction surgery is always very high. If the surgery fails, your life will be lost."

"Also, the cost of this operation is quite high..."
Speaking of this, Yu Zhiming noticed the light in Wen Ling's eyes, which quickly dimmed.
This made Yu Zhiming feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Qi Xin spoke again: "Brother Zhiming, how high can the surgery cost be? Is 300,000 yuan enough?"
"You have three hundred thousand?" Yu Zhiming heard the implication of Qi Xin's words.
Qi Xin nodded vigorously and said, "Brother Zhiming, I have been preparing for the arrival of my stepfather and stepmother."
"Over the years, I have saved all my New Year's money, pocket money, and what I received on birthdays and holidays."
"I must praise my parents. They are very generous to me and have allowed me to save more than 300,000 yuan."
Qi Xin looked sad and healthy again and said, "I originally thought that after my mother remarried, I would go out and live alone."
"It should be enough to save some more than 300,000 yuan to support me through high school and college."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming didn't know what to say.
It seems that the divorce between Teacher Qi and Researcher Xie left a deep shadow on Qi Xin, which actually made her prepare for an independent life so early.
Yu Zhiming sighed, and then said: "In Wen Ling's case, the cost of surgery is secondary, and the most important thing is the risk of surgery."
He then said to Wen Ling: "Come into the bedroom with me, and I will conduct a detailed examination on you, map out your heart problems, and consult a heart expert for you."
Next, Yu Zhiming brought Wen Ling and Qi Xin into the bedroom.
The moment the bedroom door closed, Qi Xin shouted in surprise: "Ah, it's so quiet. I feel like I've been abandoned by the whole world."
Yu Zhiming ignored Qi Xin, let Wen Ling lie on the bed, and examined her again.
This time, he spent twelve minutes not only examining Wen Ling's heart in detail, but also conducted a comprehensive examination of her body.
The good news is that although Wen Ling's other organs are too delicate and inadequate compared to her peers, they can still support her body through a major heart surgery.
Next, Yu Zhiming drove Qi Xin and Wen Ling out of the bedroom, while he sat at his desk and drew a three-dimensional perspective view of Wen Ling's heart on a piece of A4 paper...
His dedicated painting took nearly three hours, and he didn't leave the bedroom until nearly eight o'clock in the evening.
Yu Zhiming met the fourth sister who came back, and Teacher Qi Yue who came here specially.
"Teacher, you are here."
Qi Yue stood up and sighed, "Qi Xin, this kid doesn't worry, so you have to worry too."
He reached out and took the perspective view from Yu Zhiming's hand and looked at it, and couldn't help but praise it.
"Lifelike! Every detail is revealed! This is much clearer and more intuitive than a four-dimensional color photo."
"But this heart abnormality..."
Qi Yue looked at the perspective view carefully again, glanced at Wen Ling who was sitting quietly on the sofa, and sighed again.
"This operation is not easy."
Qi Yue pondered and said: "Our Huashan's external and mental strength is not too outstanding. Perhaps Dr. Lou Xinghua, who is known as the first thoracic surgeon in the Binzhou University Affiliated Hospital, dares to accept this operation."
Dr. Lou, the first thoracic surgeon of Binh University Affiliated Hospital.
Yu Zhiming remembers him.
During the emergency mission to treat Minister Daxiong that night, I had a brief contact with Dr. Lou.
At this time, Qi Xin came over and wanted to see the perspective view, but was rolled up by Qi Yue.
"You'll have nightmares after watching this."
Qi Yue frightened his daughter, and then said to Yu Zhiming: "Wen Ling's matter was caused by Qi Xin's recklessness, so you don't have to worry about it."
"I will be responsible to the end."
Yu Zhiming hummed and said softly: "Teacher, Qi Xin has saved more than 300,000 yuan..."
Qi Yue reproached himself and said, "I also knew it just now."
"I am not a responsible father. For my own selfishness, I ignore the feelings of my children."
"It's just that you can't turn back time."
"Zhi Ming, you have to learn from me and be more cautious when it comes to emotional issues. You must let your desires surrender to reason."
Yu Zhiming hummed obediently, but said in his heart, Teacher, you have changed so quickly.
He still clearly remembers that when he first came to Huashan Hospital to take the assessment, Teacher Qi said with high spirits that desire is the source of motivation for progress.
Qi Yue took the fluoroscopic diagram of the heart and said to Qi Xin, "It's getting late. Let's send Wen Ling back together."
"You come home with me too."
Qi Xin pinched his neck and said, "I won't go back!"
