Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 542 Ending
Obviously, visiting procedures have been simplified.

Normally, non-relevant medical personnel are strictly prohibited from entering the wards of prisoners hospitalized here, and visiting is not allowed.

But Li Yancheng is the superior after all, so it’s okay to say that he came here to inspect the work.

Of course, the noise outside could be heard in the room. The person in charge of the ward was a female prison guard. When she heard that the new deputy director of the municipal bureau had arrived, she had already opened the door and was waiting.

She also knew what Chen Yunwei had said to the doctor. She had always thought that this woman was talking nonsense, but now that the deputy director appeared here, it seemed that her judgment was wrong.

"Hello, Director Li!"

"Thank you for your hard work. How is Chen Yunwei?" Li Yancheng returned the greeting with a smile and gestured towards the ward and asked.

"That's right, Director Li. Chen Yunwei's condition is not good." The female prison guard shook her head and said, "The attending doctor said that the cancer cells have metastasized and affected multiple organs. Hmm..."

After all, she was not a professional, and the female prison guard didn't know what to say after she said a few words.

Seeing this, Director Yang who was following beside him added, "Director Li, the patient's cancer cells have metastasized to the bones and lungs, and he has fallen into a state of confusion. Since yesterday, he has not been able to wake up for much of the day. Judging from this, it is estimated that he will only be able to stay awake for a day or two."

Comrade Lao Yang said this last sentence with caution.

Although it is still unclear what the relationship between the deputy director and the female prisoner in the ward is, since she came here specifically, it is definitely impossible to say that they are husband and wife, but they must be friends.

Comrade Lao Yang could never have imagined that what he thought was the most impossible was actually the truth, just with the word "pre" added.

In the past one or two days?

Ugh……

Li Yancheng sighed silently in his heart.

Although he really had no feelings for this woman, he could feel from the memories he inherited from the original owner that the original owner's feelings for this woman were still very sincere.

If it had been discovered earlier and he had treated her, perhaps her life could have been saved. But now the cancer has metastasized and even he can't do anything. After all, his medical skills are still within the scope of humans, not gods.

As he walked into the ward, what caught his eye was a hospital bed and the woman lying on it.

At first glance, he didn't even recognize that it was Chen Yunwei, she had changed so much.

His hair was dry and yellow, his face was pale, his cheeks were sunken, and it was impossible to tell what clothes he was wearing, but just by looking at his cheeks, one could tell that he was extremely skinny and had completely changed his appearance.

Perhaps she sensed something. Chen Yunwei, who had not been awake all day, opened her eyes when Li Yancheng just stepped into the ward.

She turned her head with some effort, and looked towards the door with lifeless eyes, seemingly out of focus.

"Director Li, there's something wrong with her eyes. She can't see people clearly unless you walk in front of her."

"Who? Who is it? Supervisor Yang, who are you talking to? Is it Li Yancheng who is here?"

The "Guardian Yang" that Chen Yunwei was calling was this female prison guard, whose full name was Yang Nan.

Yang Nan moved his mouth but didn't dare to speak.

"cough……"

At this time, Li Yancheng cleared his throat and said, "Chen Yunwei, it's me."

"Yancheng, Yancheng, is it really you? I knew you would come over. Yancheng, my eyesight isn't very good right now. Can you come closer? I can't see you clearly."

Chen Yunwei, lying on the bed, heard the familiar voice that she still could not forget even after ten years. She struggled to sit up. She tried to support the bed with her elbows, but failed twice in a row.

Just as she was trying to continue struggling to sit up, Li Yancheng walked up and held her shoulders.

"Just lie down and don't move. In your current condition, your arm will break if you continue like this."

"Snapped"

Chen Yunwei raised her left hand and placed it on the back of Li Yancheng's hand which was pressing on her right shoulder.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Yancheng did not pull out his hand, but stretched out his other hand and placed it on her wrist, feeling her pulse.

Seeing that he did not pull his hand away, Chen Yunwei's face broke out into an excited smile.

"Don't talk yet."

Seeing her open her mouth to speak, Li Yancheng spoke first.

This startled Chen Yunwei for a moment, and she then turned her head to look at her wrist which was being held. Only then did she realize that the man in front of her seemed to be taking her pulse.

She remembered that this man seemed to know Chinese medicine. When he was in Hong Kong Island, he would first take his pulse and then give himself acupuncture.

After that, she was completely out of control of herself. She answered whatever was asked and was unable to muster even the slightest thought of resistance.

but……

Why does he know Chinese medicine?

In Chen Yunwei's impression, Li Yancheng's personality was a bit dull and not good at speaking, but he was very good to her after marriage and loved her very much.

The key point is that he studied Western medicine in school and learned battlefield first aid in the army. His grandfather was also a Western medicine doctor, and at that time, no one had ever heard that he knew Chinese medicine!
Just as Li Yancheng began to feel Chen Yunwei's pulse, Guan Weidong winked at Director Yang and the female prison guard Yang Nan, asking them to follow him and leave first.

Although they were very curious about the relationship between the deputy director and the female prisoner, seeing that the people around the leader had already signaled, Director Yang and the female prison guard still walked out obediently.

After going out, Guan Weidong closed the door behind him, then took out a cigarette and gave one to the male prison guard and Director Yang.

He did not forget the female prison guard and took out two candies from his pocket and handed them to her.

"Comrade Yang Nan, where are the cigarettes? I won't give you any. Have a piece of candy instead."

This trick was taught to him by his uncle.

Unlike when he was at the Social Affairs Bureau headquarters, he was just a secretary at that time and did not usually have to go out with his leaders.

Now he not only has to do the work of a secretary, but also is responsible for driving for his leader. He needs to go out with him frequently and meet different people.

Sometimes there are things that the leader doesn't do and he needs to do them.

Just like the cigarette just now, the cigarette was given to the man, but it would not look good to leave the female comrade hanging there.

And not all men smoke. If you meet a non-smoker or a lesbian, just hand them two pieces of candy. This can both cater to all needs and bring you closer.

Inside the room, Li Yancheng had already withdrawn his hand and said with a sigh.

"Why did you wait until there was no cure before coming to the hospital? Even in prison, you will be treated if you are sick."

"I felt pain at the time but didn't pay much attention to it. I asked the prison doctor for painkillers. When I realized something was wrong, it was too late."

As if she was afraid that the man in front of her would disappear if she let go, Chen Yunwei held Li Yancheng's other hand tightly and did not let go.

"Yancheng, do I only have a few days left to live? I can feel it.

During these two days when I was in a coma, I could always see my parents."

Chen Yunwei looked pretty good at this moment, with a blush on her pale face. But no matter how you looked at her, she didn't look like a woman under 40. Her dry and yellow hair was mixed with strands of white hair, and there were more wrinkles on her face, making her look more like she was in her 50s.

Li Yancheng knew very well that it would be more appropriate to describe her current state as a last hurrah.

"I don't want to hide it from you. You really don't have much time left."

Hearing him say this, a happy smile appeared on Chen Yunwei's face.

"It's great that I can see you one last time before I die. I will die without regrets. My sinful life is finally coming to an end."

The late stage of cancer is very painful. For patients, life is really worse than death. Death is really a relief.

"Yan Cheng, in just over thirty years, I have let down many people, but the one I feel most sorry for is you.

The time I lived with you was the happiest and most blessed time in my short life.

But I didn't cherish it, and I destroyed my own happiness with my own hands."

"Okay! Let's not talk about the past anymore."

Li Yancheng raised his other hand and gently patted the back of Chen Yunwei's hand that was holding his.

"I won't say anything about the need to move forward in life, because you really don't have much time left, and saying that is against my will.

I hope you can be reborn into a good family in your next life and live a carefree life." "Thank you! Thank you Yancheng, thank you for coming to see me, I hope you can forgive me and don't hate me, it was really not my intention to leave without saying goodbye.

Haha, there’s actually no point in talking about this now, after all, it’s already been done.

By the way, there is one thing I have never told you. When I left that year, I was indeed pregnant with your child. Unfortunately, I was seasick and I lost the baby.

It has been thirteen years. I have felt guilty about this matter for thirteen years. Now I can finally be relieved.

Yan Cheng, our unborn child and I will be reunited in another world. I am going to atone for my sins. Our child and I will pray for you in that world, and hope that you will have a safe and smooth life. "

Chen Yunwei's breath was getting weaker and weaker, and the words she spoke were becoming more and more unclear.

Looking at her like this, a tear suddenly slipped down the corner of Li Yancheng's eyes.

Plop! This teardrop fell on the back of Chen Yunwei's hand.

Chen Yunwei, who was already on her deathbed, felt it. She tried to open her eyes wide and spoke with her last bit of strength.

“Yancheng, don’t cry, shedding tears for a woman like me… is not worth it.

Finally…Finally…Yan Cheng, in fact, for all these years, I have always loved…loved…”

In the end, Chen Yunwei still couldn't finish her words.

He reached out and grasped her drooping wrist to make sure that she had no pulse. He then touched the carotid artery at her neck and waited for about ten seconds. After confirming that there was no pulse, he leaned over and used his fingers to pry open her eyelids to observe her.

Ugh……

After hesitating for a few seconds, Li Yancheng finally gave up the idea of ​​rescuing Chen Yunwei.

Even if she is rescued this time, it can only extend her life for a few more days.

Patients with advanced cancer are in great pain, and death is not necessarily a bad thing.

After straightening up, Li Yancheng raised his hand and wiped the corner of his eyes. The tear just now came very suddenly, and he himself didn't know why it happened. It might be the last bit of emotion left by the original owner.

After placing Chen Yunwei's body, he pulled up the quilt and covered her head. Then he stood quietly by the bed for a while before turning and walking towards the door.

Outside, Guan Weidong and a few others were chatting casually. When they heard the noise behind them, they all turned around to look.

Others might not be able to see anything, but Xiao Guan, who had followed Li Yancheng for quite some time, could tell at a glance that something was not right with his leader's mood, and his eyes were a little red. He felt a slight movement in his heart, and quickly lowered his eyelids, no longer looking into the leader's eyes.

"Director Yang, please ask Chen Yunwei's attending physician to come over and review the procedure. She's already gone."

"Yes"

Although he was somewhat puzzled as to why the leader did not allow rescue, Director Yang still agreed straightforwardly and turned around and walked out of this special courtyard independent of the inpatient department.

"You two should go in and take a look. I will sign Chen Yunwei's death certificate."

After speaking to Director Yang, Li Yancheng looked at the two prison guards who were in charge of guarding Chen Yunwei and gave them instructions.

The reason why he signed the death confirmation form was because he was the only one by the person's side when he died, and the normal rescue procedures were not carried out. If someone from above checks on him later, it would be a problem.

If he signs, the two prison guards will not have to bear any responsibility.

"Yes"

"Wait a moment."

Seeing the two people preparing to go in, Li Yancheng called them again.

"I'll arrange for someone to deliver a new set of clothes. Comrade Yang Nan, please help Chen Yunwei wipe her body, and then put new clothes on her so that she can leave... in a more decent way."

"I...I understand, Director Li." Yang Nan's face turned pale. She was scared to wipe the body of a dead person!

"Leader, I'll bring two people over to do this later."

Guan Weidong, who was standing by, saw Yang Nan's hesitation, and he quickly took over the job.

"also"

Li Yancheng nodded: "Weidong, go buy a set of ready-made clothes later, gray will do, I'll give you the price tomorrow."

"Ok"

call……

After letting out a breath, Li Yancheng turned his head to look at the ward behind him, then walked out of this special courtyard independent of the inpatient department.

Standing outside the archway of the courtyard, he lit a cigarette for himself and looked into the distance with deep eyes.

Guan Weidong followed two steps behind him without saying a word.

He could see that the leader seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Ex-wife?"

His mind turned unconsciously, why is the leader's ex-wife a lurker? Is this the reason for their divorce?

But how did the leader get together with Section Chief Luo? She is Mr. Luo’s daughter. How could Mr. Luo agree to let his daughter marry a divorced man?

These questions in his mind were destined to remain unanswered.

……

Half an hour later, after signing his name on the death certificate, Li Yancheng left the Public Security Hospital by car.

Guan Weidong drove quickly and arrived at the Political College in Dianhai District before six o'clock. As soon as the car stopped by the roadside, people from the school began to come out one after another.

Although there are three days off for National Day, for people from other places, especially those who live far away, this time is not enough for them to go home.

Tomorrow is a holiday. Starting from this afternoon after school, students can enter and leave the school freely as long as they come back before lights out at night. So, those who are on good terms with each other get together in groups of three or four to have a meal at a restaurant outside.

Soon, Luo Min came out with a few female comrades with whom she had a good relationship.

Seeing the car parked on the side of the road, the few people joked with her and then waved goodbye to her.

Not many people in the school knew that Luo Min was Luo Lao's daughter, and the few people who knew about it had no intention of spreading the news.

So, even though her husband's rank was not low before, because he worked in the Social Affairs Bureau, which was a relatively closed unit compared to other units, it was not easy to get in and out unless you had a certain level. So before, everyone treated her politely, but it was still normal.

But ever since her husband was transferred to the Beijing Public Security Bureau as deputy director, when the news reached the school, everyone's attitude towards her immediately changed, with a hint of fawning and a hint of ingratiation.

Next to the car, Guan Weidong had already opened the back door. After Luo Min came over and bent down to get in the car, she glanced at her man's face in the back seat and was stunned for a moment, but soon she recovered and got in the car.

After Guan Weidong closed the car door outside, she stretched out her small hand and placed it on her husband's big hand that was placed beside his leg.

"What's wrong, Dacheng? What's on your mind?"

"I figured it out!" Li Yancheng said with a smile, looking at his wife beside him.

"Of course, if you still can't see this, then I'm not a very qualified wife."

"Alas... Chen Yunwei left less than an hour ago."

Guan Weidong closed the rear door and walked around to the driver's seat, opened the door and prepared to get in. He happened to hear what Li Yancheng said, which made his heart tighten unconsciously. If possible, he really didn't want to get in.

But the car door had already been opened, and if he didn't get in, it would seem a bit too deliberate. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and sit in the driver's seat timidly, just hoping that his leader's lover would not lose his temper.

"Chen..." Just when Luo Min was about to ask who Chen Yunwei was, she suddenly reacted, and her already large eyes instantly widened.

"She...she's not even forty yet, why...why did she leave? What happened? Was she bullied by other prisoners in prison?"

"No, don't guess blindly." Li Yancheng, feeling somewhat amused, held his wife's hand with his backhand and squeezed it gently twice.

"She is ill, breast cancer, and when it was diagnosed, it was already in the late stage and had metastasized. She asked the doctor at the Public Security Hospital to find me and wanted to see me. After Director Yang of the hospital reported it to me, I went to see her just now at around four o'clock.

Maybe seeing me fulfilled her last wish, she was gone before she had said a few words... "Ah..."

"Then her funeral..."

"Oh, I'll ask Weidong to buy her a set of ready-made clothes later, and then find two female comrades to help her wipe her body and change into new clothes. She probably has no relatives in this world, so we'll treat her as an ownerless corpse and dispose of her in a unified manner."
