Chapter 390 - 390: Successful Surgery
“Ge Liang?” Gu Dai inquired calmly.
Wei Liang responded repeatedly and said, “The hospital he is in is Capital Hospital. I…”
Gu Dai replied, “You will ask Ge Liang to contact this number later, but I’m not sure whether the Legendary Doctor will agree to help him.”
Wei Liang, upon realizing he was speaking to the Legendary Doctor, was overcome with emotion. “Thank you, Miss Gu Dai. May I treat you to a meal or offer you money in gratitude?”
Gu Dai declined politely, “There’s no need. Just do not disturb me, that’s sufficient.”
Wei Liang nodded enthusiastically, then, remembering Gu Dai couldn’t see him, quickly affirmed, “Of course, Miss Gu Dai. Your kindness is unparalleled, helping others without seeking anything in return!”
When Ge Liang received the number and the information that it was the Legendary Doctor’s from Wei Liang, his hands trembled as he dialed the number.
“Ge Liang?” Gu Dai’s voice was light and indifferent as she answered the call.
Ge Liang, surprised that she knew his name but then, he made the connection that it may be the victim’s family who shared the name, so he quickly put that thought aside, responded, “Yes, it’s me, Ge Liang. I’ll send you the address right away.”
“I haven’t agreed to save anyone yet,” Gu Dai reminded him softly.
Realizing the truth in her words, Ge Liang turned to see Song Ling watching him with a cold gaze. Hastily, he said, “Please, doctor, I can offer you a substantial sum. Please save the patient.”
“I remember your mentor was Meng Ling,” Gu Dai spoke, recalling a memory. “I met him before. He compiled a medical book with his life’s work. It’s said he passed it on to you.”
Understanding her hint, after a few seconds of internal struggles, Ge Liang resolved, “If you agree to help, I will give you my mentor’s book.”
Having previously feared losing them, he had already printed several copies at home. Thus, even if he gave them away, it wouldn’t be a betrayal to his mentor.
Gu Dai, pleased with his straightforwardness, instructed, “I’m currently in the Capital. Send me your hospital’s location.”
“I prefer not to be seen by too many people. If there’s a back entrance, I’ll use that,” she added.
“Don’t worry, I’ll arrange everything,” Ge Liang assured her promptly.
Dressed in black, with a mask and cap concealing most of her face, Gu Dai set out for the location Ge Liang had sent.
Song Ling, observing Ge Liang’s long, whispered phone conversation, eventually inquired coldly, “Have you found a solution?”
Ge Liang nodded excitedly, “Yes, I’ve found an excellent doctor. She can definitely save Miss Song Yu.”
“Let’s hope so,” Song Ling remarked.
Ge Liang suggested, “President Song, the doctor prefers privacy. You and Mrs. Wang Lan should wait in the adjacent room. I’ll call you when the surgery is successful.”
A fleeting thought crossed Song Ling’s mind, but before he could delve deeper, it vanished.
He turned to Ge Liang and said, “I don’t care who the doctor is, but if my sister’s treatment fails, I won’t forgive you!”
Ge Liang, visibly frightened, trembled and hastily replied with a forced smile.
On her way to the hospital, Gu Dai learned that the injured patient was a young woman, drugged and harmed while unconscious.
Having experienced something similar, she empathized deeply and quickened her pace to the hospital.
Upon entering the operating room, Gu Dai saw Song Yu on the table and was stunned for a moment.
She was fine in the morning, so why is she like this now?
She remembered how Song Yu had once bullied her. However, after a moment’s hesitation, she sighed and began the surgery, having assessed Song Yu’s condition.
Ge Liang watched Gu Dai’s skilled movements, completely astonished.
Upon first seeing Gu Dai, he had his doubts about her reliability. Although her face was hidden, her silhouette revealed her to be a young girl, and he hadn’t expected her medical skills to be so formidable.
In just a few minutes, Ge Liang was thoroughly impressed.
Gu Dai announced, “The surgery was successful.”
Ge Liang snapped back to reality, incredulously asking, “It’s done already?”
He glanced at the time, only then realizing that several hours had passed. He had been so engrossed that he hadn’t noticed time slipping away..
