Gu Weimin unfolded the blueprints and his eyes lit up instantly.

He muttered to himself, "This is... a prosthetic limb?"

"That's right, it's a prosthetic leg."

Fu Hua nodded, her tone very serious.

Gu Weimin readily agreed: "No problem, I'll coordinate with Engineer Chen right away and arrange for the workshop to prioritize this, ensuring it's finished as quickly as possible!"

"The materials required are rather special; I'll send them over to you in a day or two."

Fu Hua had already made all the preparations in advance.

Speaking of prosthetics, those from the 90s were really not very good.

Most prosthetics on the market are made of hard plastic and sheet metal.

It's heavy and clumsy, with sharp edges that rub against my legs.

Blisters formed after wearing it for a short time, and it didn't fit the residual limb properly, making walking very stiff and unsteady.

Not only is it inflexible, it's also prone to breaking.

Even the imported ones aren't much better; they're ridiculously expensive.

It's still not close-fitting, and wearing it is a real pain.

But by 2026, prosthetics will have changed dramatically.

Made of lightweight, high-tech materials, it's so light you won't feel any weight when wearing it.

The parts that come into contact with the skin are all made of soft silicone, which is soft and smooth.

It fits like your own skin and doesn't rub against your legs at all.

The joints can bend flexibly, and walking and even jogging are similar to normal people, so it is impossible to tell that it is a prosthesis.

The blueprint Fu Hua provided was based on advanced technology from 2026.

.........

On the other side, in the military medical room, several specialist doctors carefully examined Xie Ci's leg injury and put away their examination tools.

Zhou Yun, Xie Chenjie, Grandma Xie, Commander Hua, and several comrades who expressed their gratitude.

They all gathered around, anxiously awaiting the result.

Leading the group was Dr. Fan, the attending physician who had given the thank-you speech.

After he came out, he looked at them and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Comrade Xie's leg injury has recovered very well. The bone has healed strongly, and the wound has healed perfectly. Now he can definitely get a prosthesis."

Dr. Fan never dared to imagine that he could recover to this extent in such a short time.

He felt that Comrade Fu Hua was definitely involved.

Xie Ci's condition was very dangerous at the time. After the surgery, he was not at ease and did not think Xie Ci would make it through that night.

Unexpectedly, he not only pulled through, but recovered remarkably quickly.

Upon hearing this, Grandma Xie's eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she repeatedly expressed her gratitude.

Zhou Yun breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "Doctor, is the current prosthesis usable? Will it affect his walking in the future?"

Dr. Fan sighed and said frankly, "Our resources are limited right now; we have few prosthetic options and they're not flexible enough."

Wearing it allows you to walk normally, but it certainly can't compare to having a healthy leg; your movements will be a bit stiff.

"If we had more advanced prostheses, the recovery would be much better."

Zhou Yun and Xie Chenjie exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with regret.

Dr. Fan said, "You should prepare in advance. Once the prosthesis arrives, we can arrange for its installation and fitting immediately."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Dr. Fan."

As Dr. Fan was about to return to his office, he suddenly turned around and said, "Perhaps you could go and find Comrade Fu."

As far as I know, she is not only outstanding in scientific research, but also a leader in the medical device field. She founded Huaxin Medical, and several military hospitals are in communication with Huaxin, preparing to use their equipment.

Commander Hua, standing to the side, nodded in agreement after listening.

As the military region commander and Xie Ci's former superior, he was well-informed and knew exactly what was going on.

His words were also quite pertinent: "I've also heard that Huaxin Medical is now an industry benchmark."

"For medical consumables of the same specifications, even Kanghua couldn't compare. They are better than imported ones. In short, they are much safer."

He paused, then looked at the Xie family members with a strange expression.

He said softly, "I know, Xie Ci and Fu Hua aren't together anymore. But I also know Fu Hua, that girl..."

She is upright and compassionate; she would never stand idly by when it comes to saving lives and healing the sick.

"We will go."

Zhou Yun's eyes welled up with tears, and she nodded gratefully.

Xie Chenjie and Zhou Yun exchanged a glance, both of them understanding each other's intentions.

As long as it's for the good of their son, they're willing to do anything he asks.

Without further ado, the two made up their minds to seek help from Fu Hua.

…………

The private room was warm and inviting. Fu Hua, Lu Tingxiao, Aunt Lan, and Shen Yichen sat down side by side.

Old Shen sat in the main seat, his face full of a kind smile.

This is Mr. Shen's second visit to Beijing.

As soon as he sat down, he started chatting warmly with Fu Hua.

As soon as all the dishes were served, Old Shen picked up his teacup and took a sip.

He got straight to the point: "Fu Hua, I'm not just here to have dinner with you, I've also brought a patient from my hometown, a relative of mine."

"His illness is so strange; we've been to all the local hospitals, but they can't find the cause. They say it's a rare and difficult-to-diagnose disease."

"I thought you were a very skilled doctor, so I wanted to ask if you could help me take a look? It's not a cardiology problem, it's just a stomachache, abnormal urination, and I'm so thin I'm just skin and bones. I've been trying to treat it for years without any improvement."

"Does it occasionally bleed under the skin? Is it purplish-red?"

Fu Hua asked.

"Yes, yes, amazing! How did you know?"

Old Shen glanced at his family, his eyes filled with amazement.

"So, do these spots still appear in batches, with one batch disappearing and another batch appearing symmetrically?"

"Yes, I heard him say that, anyway, his legs hurt one minute, and his stomach hurts the next."

Fu Hua nodded, having gained a preliminary understanding; this was likely IgA-mediated allergic purpura.

It is essentially a systemic condition, specifically small vessel vasculitis.

In this era, due to a lack of understanding, it is regarded as an intractable disease, or dampness, or rheumatism.

The causes are mostly due to infection and immune disorders that induce damage to the blood vessel walls.

Blood leakage can cause skin rashes and joint swelling and pain.

In modern times, examinations have clear indicators, and treatments have standardized protocols.

Anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, vascular protective, and immune-modulating when necessary.

Mild cases subside quickly, and severe cases can be effectively controlled.

Anyway, it's not a terminal illness.

Fu Hua put down her chopsticks and said earnestly, "Mr. Shen, you're too kind. Saving lives is my duty. Please have the patient come to my office tomorrow so I can examine him carefully. I will do my best."

"Child, this patient has been kind to me. Please tell me the truth: can he be cured? I need to be mentally prepared."

Fu Hua thought for a moment and said, "It's treatable, not difficult. I'll come up with a treatment plan. You can send him to Anzhen Hospital, and I'll follow up on the treatment process."

Upon hearing this, Old Shen was overjoyed and praised him repeatedly: "I knew it, you're a remarkable child, and your medical skills are beyond question!"

"You're so young and already more capable than seasoned experts. I'm relieved to hear that!"

Lu Tingxiao remained mostly silent throughout, simply staring at Fu Hua.

Pick up the dish she used the most with her chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

His movements were natural and considerate, and his eyes were full of undisguised care.

Fu Hua looked up at him and said softly, "Thank you, senior brother."

Aunt Lan saw this scene, smiled, and came closer.

Holding Fu Hua's hand, her tone was full of affection: "Child, let me ask you a honest question: do you have a boyfriend now?"
