Chapter 661
Chapter 661: Chapter 653 The House is Acquired Chapter 661: Chapter 653 The House is Acquired Tang Yuxin put down her hand and walked toward the door.
Tong Feng had mustered all his courage, only for it to collapse utterly in an instant.
Even if given another chance, she felt that it was impossible for her to say that one “I’m sorry” again.
“I beg you, save my granddaughter,” Tong Feng spoke again, possibly out of embarrassment and helplessness, “For the sake of the medical profession, for working in the same hospital, for…
the fact that she is a patient.”
Tong Feng bowed his head; his grizzled hair was as dimmed as his expression.
“For the sake of so many things, save her life, save her leg.”
“We are here,” Director Zhu opened the door to a hospital room, and inside was Tong Shu.
When Tang Yuxin saw the woman lying inside, half-dead and unaware, even she herself was somewhat shocked.
The once radiant and untouchable woman had now become just a layer of skin over bones.
She seemed thinner than when Tang Yuxin had first returned; at least back then, she had retained a human shape, but now Tong Shu had lost it.
It was as if a layer of skin was stretched over bones; one could even discern the shape of the human skeleton.
It seemed that the amputation issue was not only a physical destruction for Tong Shu, but also an annihilation of her spirit.
If both her legs were to fail as well, what awaited Tong Shu could very well be death.

No one could endure becoming like that, without even the basic ability to take care of oneself.
That wasn’t living; it was torture.
It was for this reason that Tong Feng was willing to sacrifice his pride.
He was willing to bow his head, apologize, and give his all, just to save his granddaughter’s life.
Although the members of the Tong Family, grandfather and granddaughter alike, were despicable, their actions provoking disgust and abhorrence, one could not deny that Tong Feng had given his all to Tong Shu.
Tong Shu was indeed fortunate to have such a devoted grandfather who, despite his lack of shame, treated her well.
Yuxin walked over and pulled back the blanket.
As soon as she lifted it, a foul smell wafted out—sour odor of rotting flesh, disinfectant, and a mix of various medicines, all combining into an extremely unpleasant aroma.
No wonder, given the current level of medical science, there was no way to save the leg, which was why amputation was necessary.
Tong Shu’s legs were rotting bit by bit, and they were unable to control the spread as the decaying flesh continued to contaminate the bloodstream.
Indeed, amputation was the best solution.
At this point, the legs were the root of the ailment.
By removing the source of the infection, her life could be saved.
The problem was, having already lost her hands, losing her legs as well would leave her in a state hardly recognizable as human.
“Prepare for surgery.”
Tang Yuxin clenched her wrist.
The sooner the surgery was done, the sooner she could go back.
Although she was extremely reluctant, she would proceed as Gu Ning had said, for the sake of the patient, yes, for the patient.
Several hours later, Tang Yuxin emerged from the operating room.
Tong Feng was standing outside; it was apparent that he had been standing the whole time, without even sitting down once.
However long Tang Yuxin had been standing during the surgery, Tong Feng had stood just as long.
“How did it go?” He had always wanted to ask this question but didn’t dare to speak.
“If there’s anything in the future, don’t come looking for me.
I don’t like you Tong Family people,” Tang Yuxin said with a cold voice.
She didn’t want to be involved in treating the Tong Family people time and again.
Once was her limit; should such a situation arise again, she would just go to another hospital to avoid seeing those faces and dealing with so many despicable people.
“That surgery…”
Tong Feng asked awkwardly, was the surgery successful, and how was his granddaughter?
Were her two legs saved?
“What do you think?”
Tang Yuxin pursed her red lips tightly, her eyes full of sarcasm.
If she, Tang Yuxin, dared to take on this surgery, it meant that she was at least eighty percent confident of success.
Compared to previous surgeries she had handled, this was relatively light.
How could it not be successful?
She walked past Tong Feng, planning to go back and rest.
She felt that her strength was seriously depleted.
In the past, she could perform three or four surgeries in one day, and there was even a day when she had completed more than a dozen surgeries without ever appearing so exhausted.
Regaining her former condition was not going to be easy.
She would have to have a serious talk with the Dean; she could no longer be the one who overworked herself, mainly because it was now too much for her.
She had thought she might be able to push herself for a few more years, but due to an unexpected mishap, she feared that she would have to transition into retirement mode.
Working only three days a week—yes, that was it.
How nice that would be.
After all, the hospital wasn’t devoid of doctors.
She also wanted to be that kind of doctor who worked less, even if it meant earning a lower salary.
Fortunately, she didn’t need this job to support herself anymore.
The annual dividends from her family were more than enough, enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life.
When she came out, she found Gu Ning standing outside, and she hurried over to stand in front of him.
“Have the procedures for that place been taken care of?”
She was just waiting for the procedures to be completed.
Before they were, she hadn’t visited the place since, after all, it was still someone else’s house.
Although she already had the keys, the procedures were not yet fully completed, so she didn’t feel any sense of security.
“Yes, it’s done.

I’ll take you there.”
Gu Ning handed her a document he was holding, “This is the compensation from the Tong Family to you.”
Tang Yuxin flipped through the contract; it clearly stated that the Tong Family voluntarily compensated her with an ancient house for her emotional distress, and from now on, this ancient house would belong to her, Tang Yuxin, as her private property.
The Tong Family would not have any reason or cause to demand the return of this house from her.
It bore Tong Feng’s own signature and his personal seal, and of course, there was also the official seal.
Tang Yuxin wasn’t worried about these things, as Gu Ning’s elder brother had a good relationship with the courts.
For Gu Ning, as long as all the documentation was complete, it could all typically be settled in a day’s time.
“Let’s go,” said Tang Yuxin, who had lacked energy before and just wanted to sleep.
But now, upon seeing this property transfer letter, her spirits were lifted instantly, and she was no longer sleepy or tired.
Gu Ning drove Tang Yuxin to the Tong Family’s ancient house.
Though called an ancient house, it was more like a small park.
From the outside, one could see an expanse of green.
Upon entering, there was the scent of natural wood, and life and greenery were everywhere.
