“You can go home and think about it or get another doctor to check your condition for you. Your student is still waiting there, and he’s actually ill,” Zhao Chuchu said. “I need to do a thorough checkup for him as soon as possible so I can decide on the right treatment.”

The teacher wanted to say something else initially, but he heard that his student was actually ill. Furthermore, the way that Zhao Chuchu said it meant that his student’s condition was quite serious. His problem wasn’t an urgent one, but his student might be waiting to get his life saved.

“I’ll go back and think about it. Mrs. Xie, please keep this a secret.”

“Okay.”

The teacher stood up and left the gazebo.

The vice principal signaled to the student to go over to Zhao Chuchu.

When he walked into the gazebo, his entire body was tense.

“Relax, don’t be so nervous. Come, give me your hand, and I’ll check your pulse condition for you again,” Zhao Chuchu was only doing this for the show. She was already certain about what illness this man had.

She pointed at his upper abdomen and asked, “Do you often feel a burning, painful sensation here? Sometimes after eating, not only do you not get better, but it also becomes more severe, right?”

“Yes.” He was shocked. “How did you know?”

“You also feel nausea at random intervals. Do you sometimes have no appetite, your feces comes out black, and you feel extremely weak and fatigued?”

“Yes, Mrs. Xie, is my condition very serious?”

“How long has it been?”

“About a year.”

“And have you just been enduring it?”

Zhong Peifeng hung his head low and said, “I’m young. It’ll pass if I endure it for a while.’

Zhao Chuchu wanted to tell him that this wasn’t something that would pass after a while.

With the medical knowledge of this era, stomach cancer basically meant death.

Seeing a doctor wouldn’t help at all.

“What’s your name?” Zhao Chuchu asked. She knew that his name was Zhong Peifeng. He was Xie Heng’s friend.

“Zhong Peifeng.”

“Mr. Zhong, your illness is already very serious. If you continue to let it develop, you will leave this world before your parents.”

Zhao Chuchu spoke frankly.

“Do you sometimes vomit with blood in it?” “Yes. Mrs. Xie, what illness do I have?” “Your stomach is not looking good.”

“Am I dying?”

Zhong Peifeng’s face turned pale. He started trembling slightly.

“No, I’m here, so you won’t die. Other doctors may not be able to do anything, but I can.”

“Are you serious?”

“Why would I lie about this? I often hear my husband talk about you. You’re a pretty good friend of his, right?”

“Yes, Zizhao often helps me in the academy. He is a good friend.”

“If you want to treat your illness, you should stop studying for a period of time.”

“Stop studying?”

“Continue after you’ve recovered. I’m afraid that you might study at the expense of your body. No amount of medication can cure you if you overexert yourself like this. You only live once, Mr. Zhong. The Imperial Exams happen every three years. Even if you miss this one, you can still attend the next one.

But life, if you lose it, you’ll never get it back.”

“Mrs. Xie, is my condition so serious? Can it really be cured?”

“Are you doubting my abilities as a doctor? You didn’t tell anyone about this, right?”

Zhong Peifeng raised his head and looked at Zhao Chuchu. He couldn’t believe his ears.

How did she know about that?

“Curing this illness takes time. It’s not a common cold that only takes a few days and some medication. If you continue to let it develop like this, it’s going to kill you.”

“But my family has poured everything into providing for my studies. I can’t afford the treatment. Never mind, we all have our own destinies. I’ll just make the most out of the time I have left.

Zhong Peifeng wanted to live but reality forced him to give up.

He didn’t want to completely exhaust all of his family’s finances on top of the burden that he was already putting on them for studying.

Zhao Chuchu couldn’t reprimand him.

Before the post-apocalyptic world, she had often seen people choosing to stop treatment because they lacked a few thousand dollars.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to live anymore. They had already borrowed everything they could, but it just wasn’t enough. Health was the biggest wealth. This applied to everyone.

“Don’t you want to live?”

“I do. I want to live more than anyone else, but I don’t want to see my parents give up everything for me. Mrs. Xie, their life is already difficult as it is. I don’t want them to suffer because of me anymore. If there is a next life, I’ll choose to fulfill my filial duties in my next life.”

Zhao Chuchu could tell that Zhong Peifeng was sincere about what he said.

He didn’t ask her to save him first and pay for the treatment later.

Every single one of Xie Heng’s friends had a very respectable character.

“I can save you. As for the payment, you can pay me back slowly in the future.

Just take it as my husband helping his friend.”

Zhong Peifeng was startled by Zhao Chuchu’s suggestion.

“How can I trouble you for that?” Zhong Peifeng asked. He remembered how Zhao Chuchu refused to save Yu Linjiang despite him saying all those things, yet now she was offering to save him for free. “Mrs. Xie, I may not be able to pay you back for the rest of my life, and neither you nor Zizhao owe me anything. I’m glad that you’re even willing to make such an offer..”
