Marrying The Richest Man While Pregnant Chapter 172 – Certainty

Chapter 172 Certainty

Cui Mao nodded and acknowledged that he knew about the cloud-shaped purple spots.

Fang Liu continued to ask, “Then why didn't you tell me you knew? If you had told me earlier, maybe the old man could still be saved.”

Fang Liu didn't like Old Man Gong, but his life was at stake. To a doctor, there shouldn't be any conditions for treatment. Cui Mao turned his head and looked at Fang Liu intensely. “Do you think he can be treated?”

Fang Liu's eyes glinted, but she remained silent. Cui Mao probably asked her this question because he was sure that no one could save Old Man Gong.

Cui Mao continued, “The marks have already appeared on his skin, which means his internal organs have been damaged for a long time. So tell me, how do you propose we treat him?”

There was no way to treat this kind of internal injury through surgery. Under normal circumstances, Old Man Gong could only take medication to ease the pain. However, in the end, he would still be critically ill.

Moreover, Old Man Gong was a difficult person to deal with. Even if the doctors gave him medicine, his body would continue to deteriorate. Old Man Gong would say that the medicine was not good enough and blame the doctors.

Cui Mao had been a doctor for many years and had seen all kinds of people. Some people were not grateful even if they had been cured. In addition, Old Man Gong had already wreaked havoc in the hospital.

Nonetheless, It wasn't that Fang Liu couldn't understand Cui Mao's thoughts. Cui Mao was simply putting the interest of the hospital first.

But in the end, Old Man Gong had returned to Cui Mao's hospital. If Old Man Gong were to die here, it would taint the hospital's reputation.

When Cui Mao finished speaking, Fang Liu asked, “Then, Doctor Cui do you know why Old Man Gong is in such a horrible condition? Why are there signs of lividity on his body?”

Cui Mao shook his head and replied, “I'm not sure. I'm just as lost as you are. Old Man Gong should have taken a blood test to see if he had eaten or drank something that contained poison.”

The two went back and forth, then Cui Mao said, “It's okay. You don't have to concern yourself with this. Old Man Gong is hopeless, and we aren't to blame. You may feel bad, but you will experience your fair share of death as a doctor. Just take it easy, will you?”

Fang Liu left Cui Mao's office, and when she got off work, Mo Yu came to pick her up. Fang Liu grabbed Mo Yu's arm, and after hesitating for a long while, she said, “Mo Yu, I think I can still save Old Man Gong.”

Mo Yu was stunned when he heard Fang Liu's claims. After pondering, he said, “I thought you told me that the situation was dire. How can you still save him?”

Fang Liu analyzed the situation calmly and said, “If someone poisoned Old Man Gong, I could remove all the remaining toxins in his body, and his chances of survival might increase. Old Man Gong has a surprisingly strong physique, and Big Gong also used some extremely old ginseng to prolong his life.” These factors would significantly increase the possibility of Old Man Gong's survival. Mo Yu pondered and asked, “How confident are you?”

Fang Liu replied, “I'm fifty percent sure. If we could find out what Old Man Gong ingested, we could increase his chances of survival by twenty percent.”

Mo Yu rubbed his fingers on Fang Liu's palm, tickling her. Fang Liu only remained silent when she saw Mo Yu in deep thought.

After a long pause, Mo Yu said, “All right, I'll help you find out what Big Gong's family eats. But didn't you say that Old Man Gong only has a few days to live? I don't think you should rush this.”

A smile suddenly appeared on Mo Yu's face. “I don't want you to treat people like Old Man Gong for nothing. Big Gong would have to give us something in return.”

A few days later, the atmosphere at the clinic was tense. Everyone was afraid that Old Man Gong would die at any moment. The staff responsible for infusing nutrients and cleaning Old Man Gong had it even harder.

Even if the staff's protective clothing could isolate Old Man Gong's gruesome stench, just looking at his rotting skin was disgusting enough to make the staff want to vomit.

Fang Liu went looking for Big Gong. The man did not expect the beautiful Fang Liu to take the initiative and look for him. Although Big Gong knew that Fang Liu was married to Mo Yu, he was still happy to see Fang Liu.

Big Gong secretly hoped that Fang Liu was a promiscuous woman and that Mo Yu couldn't satisfy Fang Liu's desires. Big Gong began to have increasingly inappropriate thoughts about Fang Liu.

It was until Fang Liu said to him heavily, “Mr. Gong, your father might only have two days to live.”
