Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 436: Asking for Her Help

Mrs. Leng underwent liver cancer surgery, and the operation was very successful. However, the post-operative recovery is also crucial; whether it will recur depends on how well she recovers afterward.

The best approach is the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, addressing both the symptoms and the root cause, a dual effort.

"I recommend a good traditional Chinese medicine doctor to you. You can consult her. However, that doctor is quite hard to invite. In Mrs. Leng’s case, she won’t be able to go personally in the short term, so you’ll have to invite the doctor to the hospital," suggested Doctor Chen.

Leng Ziqing nodded, "Thank you, Doctor Chen. Please give me the address, and I will personally go to invite her."

Mrs. Leng, weakly, also said, "We will sincerely invite her."

"Okay," Doctor Chen nodded and gave them the doctor’s name and address.

Both Leng Ziqing and Mrs. Leng were left stunned and deep in thought, showing a complex expression.

Doctor Chen asked in confusion, "What’s the matter?"

"Nothing, we understand. Thank you, Doctor Chen," Leng Ziqing snapped out of it and thanked Doctor Chen.

After Doctor Chen left, Leng Ziqing asked his mother, "You heard what Doctor Chen said just now. How are you planning to handle this?"

Mrs. Leng looked distressed; she definitely didn’t want to seek out Ningwan.

However, this illness truly frightened her this time.

Though the surgery was successful, no one could replace the suffering she endured.

If it recurred, she’d rather die than go through it again.

And then there’s the chemotherapy to follow, the pain of which she hasn’t yet experienced, but already knows well enough.

If traditional Chinese medicine could solve it, she would be more than willing.

Not to mention Ningwan, she would even be willing to invite Wu Taotao.

So, after looking distressed for a few seconds, she nodded, "Go invite her! Figure out a way to bring her here."

"Okay, I’ll do my best. But, Mom, when she comes, don’t speak harshly to her. Talk nicely and don’t offend her again," Leng Ziqing advised.

Mrs. Leng said, "Got it. Do you think I’m stupid? When we need her, I’d still speak harshly?"

Leng Ziqing chuckled and shook his head.

In this regard, his mother indeed was not foolish.

"By the way, I’ll ask Zhang Meimei to bring Jiangjiang over to see you when she gets some free time," Leng Ziqing added.

At the mention of Jiangjiang, Mrs. Leng felt heartbroken.

"You should be kinder to Jiangjiang. It’s so heartbreaking for such a young child to lose a father’s love. Seeing him, I think of you."

"We’re not the same. Father passed away early, I’m not dead yet. Even though Zhang Meimei and I are divorced, I still love Jiangjiang," Leng Ziqing replied.

Upon hearing the word "dead," Mrs. Leng immediately spat twice, disdainfully saying, "So young, don’t say such things, quickly slap your mouth."

Leng Ziqing laughed, "Mom, since when did you become so superstitious?"

Mrs. Leng looked at her joking son and felt somewhat dazed.

How long had it been since mother and son had such a normal, warm exchange? Her son hadn’t joked and teased her like this in ages.

In an instant, a warm feeling enveloped her heart.

She even felt fortunate that, because of this illness, she still had a chance to reconcile with her son.

After arranging for the caregiver to take care of his mother, Leng Ziqing went to Ningwan’s traditional Chinese medicine clinic himself, hoping she would treat his mother.

Unexpectedly, Wu Taotao and Ye Shao were also present.

While Ningwan was still diagnosing someone, the three of them met in the side hall, and for a moment, they all felt a bit awkward.

However, Ye Shao quickly put his arm possessively around Wu Taotao’s waist, cautiously eyeing Leng Ziqing.

Leng Ziqing smiled bitterly and said slowly, "You don’t need to be on guard against me, I’ve moved on. I only wish you and Wu Taotao the best and have no other intentions."

After a brief pause, he quickly added, "But if you ever dare to do something to wrong Wu Taotao, I won’t stand by and do nothing."

"Don’t worry, you’ll never have that chance," Ye Shao said.

Wu Taotao awkwardly laughed and said, "Alright, enough of that. Why are you here today?"

Leng Ziqing wouldn’t come here without reason; if there was nothing, he certainly wouldn’t have the time to wander around here.

"I came to see Ningwan, hoping she can treat my mother," Leng Ziqing replied.

"I’ve heard about your mother and it’s inconvenient for me to visit her. I hope she recovers soon," Wu Taotao said.

Leng Ziqing nodded, "The surgery was very successful. Whether it will recur depends on the post-operative recovery."

"So, you came to find me?" Ningwan entered the room.

Seeing Ningwan enter, Leng Ziqing quickly said, "Since you’ve heard, about this matter..."

"I’ll consider it and give you an answer in two days," Ningwan replied.

Leng Ziqing frowned, "Two days? That’s too late."

Ningwan smiled and said, "Mrs. Leng just had surgery and is still in the recovery phase. Two days is not late at all. Even if I agree to treat her, it would still take a few more days before I can administer medicine."

"Alright, I’ll await your good news in two days," Leng Ziqing acquiesced, not daring to bargain.

After this, he took his leave and left.

After all, with Wu Taotao and Ye Shao there, he didn’t see the need to stay.

Once Leng Ziqing left, Wu Taotao said to Ningwan, "Why do you still need to consider? Didn’t you say that treating patients is your duty and that, in the eyes of a doctor, all patients are equal and should be treated equally?"

"Why rush? I never said I wouldn’t treat her," Ningwan replied.

Ye Shao helped explain for Wu Taotao, "She’s not rushing, she’s feeling guilty towards the Leng Family and hopes you can help treat Mrs. Leng, also for some psychological comfort."

"Why, aren’t you jealous anymore and even explaining for Taotao?" Ningwan asked with a smile.

Ye Shao again wrapped his arm around Wu Taotao’s waist proudly, "Of course, we’re a couple, and the first rule between couples is mutual trust. If there’s no trust, how can I be worthy of being her man?"

"Very good, seeing you two so loving makes me relieved. Of course, I’ll be even happier when you get married," Ningwan said.

Wu Taotao said, "We certainly can’t get married now. Ye Shao has just entered the industry and needs to establish himself first. By the way, we came to you today hoping you can prescribe some medicine for him."

"Prescribe medicine? What’s wrong? Is he sick?"

Upon hearing this, Ningwan quickly grabbed Ye Shao’s wrist to check his pulse.

However, his pulse seemed normal, not like he was sick.

"Sis, I’m not sick, but... I need to lose some weight lately. Do you have any methods that could help with weight loss?" Ye Shao asked, shyly withdrawing his wrist.

Ningwan was speechless, "You’re not fat, why do you need to lose weight?"

Ye Shao explained, "Among normal people, I’m indeed not fat, maybe even a bit skinny. But in the entertainment industry, it’s not enough. Many people appear heavier on camera, and I definitely can’t look like this on screen. The company got me a film role, although it’s a supporting male role, it’s my first drama and getting a supporting male role is pretty good. Moreover, the character is quite likable, but described in the book as thin and frail. However, looking like this, I certainly can’t portray that kind of image, so I thought of losing weight. But to look sickly and thin, I can’t just go to the gym, hence I thought of you, since you’re a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, you should have a way, right?"
