Chapter 1119 Concealing each other
Wang Shiyu was silent for a while, and then said: "I can't say this. In short, if his condition is diagnosed correctly, he can survive for more than a year, which is medically It's a miracle. I'm also very curious. How to do this. So, it is best to let him come to our hospital for another detailed examination."
After hearing her admit that it was a miracle again, Shen Lin's previous mood that was about to collapse finally subsided. Relieved, it was like grasping the last straw.
"Thank you. He has been hiding his illness from me and has never wanted me to know. Therefore, I don't want to tell him about it for the time being, and I hope you can keep it secret for me. I don't want to be too Many people know about this."
"Of course. I won't tell anyone about this, don't worry, but don't you want him to come to the hospital for examination?"
Wang Shiyu asked with some regret.
Shen Lin asked back: "Since he is fine so far, and is still alive and healthy, why should I let him go to the hospital for a check-up?"
Chen Feng The diagnosed disease is terminal, and Wang Shiyu said that according to the hospital's diagnosis, he would not live for more than half a year, so why should he go to the hospital for examination?
Even if you really want to go for examination and treatment, it is impossible to go back to the hospital where Wang Shiyu is located. What is the use of going for examination? This hospital is not capable of treating this disease, so should it be sent for experimentation and research?
Shen Lin was still very clear-headed in this regard, so she politely rejected Wang Shiyu's kindness.
"Then can you find out how your husband's disease was controlled? Did he go to the most advanced hospital abroad?"
Wang Shiyu is really curious. Although she is not an oncologist, she has studied medicine for many years and must have an inquiring mind about medical miracles.
"I don't know about this matter, and it's hard to ask him directly now. Anyway, thank you this time."
Shen Lin doesn't want to talk to her anymore, even though she is She is a doctor, but she is not a professional doctor. Every time she talks about Chen Feng's condition, Shen Lin's heart aches and she wants to end the conversation as soon as possible.
"Linlin, let me ask you and your husband to meet you another day. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I don't know your husband yet."
It was hard for Shen Lin to refuse this. After all, they were classmates and had a good relationship with each other before. The main reason was that the two of them didn't live very far from each other. If they really wanted to meet, they could meet up in twenty or thirty minutes' drive at most.
"Okay, let's meet up another day when we are both free."
That's all Shen Lin had to say.
Wang Shiyu immediately answered: "Okay, how about this Saturday? The day after tomorrow."
After Shen Lin was stunned for a moment, she said: "Then I need to communicate with him first."
"Then you tell him later that our old classmates will come out to meet each other, and let me get to know your husband by the way."
Shen Lin knew that she was still curious about why Chen Feng was terminally ill. Finally, he can still live for so long.
After thinking about it, she still pulled down her face slightly and said something ugly: "Shiyu, if I bring him out to meet you, you must first promise me that you will never ask about his condition. Otherwise, I think it’s better not to meet.”
Wang Shiyu said with some disappointment: “Linlin, it was your husband who kept it secret from you before, but now you are doing it again. Is it necessary to come here and hide it from him? Can't you have a frank communication about this matter? If you are sick, you should not hide your illness, but you should actively check and treat it."
This is something Shen Lin doesn't like to hear. , frowned and asked: "Then do you think that under normal circumstances, the experts in your hospital, or our domestic medical experts, can cure my husband's disease?"
Wang Shiyu was speechless for a moment. Cancer is an incurable disease. The most you can do is spend money to buy your life. If you have money, you will live longer. If you don't have money, you will die quickly.
Especially for patients with late-stage brain cancer like Chen Feng, there is no need for treatment at all, because the only life left is to wait for death, which will basically take two to three months. Why bother with treatment? Do you think undergoing surgery and chemotherapy is as enjoyable as going to a spa?
"Shiyu, I understand your curiosity. But neither my husband nor I want others to pay too much attention to his condition, let alone any doctor using him as a research subject. So, I hope again that you can This matter is kept strictly confidential, do not tell anyone else. Including other doctors, such as oncologists. I hope you can promise me, can you?"
Wang Shiyu had really planned to tell the old expert who originally gave Chen Feng the diagnosis. After all, it was them. The head of the hospital's oncology department.
But now when I heard Shen Lin's words, I felt a little hesitant.
Seeing that she didn't respond immediately, Shen Lin frowned slightly and then said in a more serious tone: "Shiyu, you can do it, right?"
Wang Shiyu just woke up from a dream and said quickly: " Of course, I am true to my word and will not tell others about this. Even if I do, others may not believe it.”
“Thank you, that’s it. Saturday. Whether my husband is free or not, I will invite you out for a meal to express my gratitude."
"You're too polite. I would rather not help you.”
Wang Shiyu finally felt a little sad now. After all, Shen Lin’s husband had an incurable disease.
And when Wang Shiyu thought about it, even if her husband survived until now, there was no guarantee that he would continue to live in the future.
Under the most ideal situation, Wang Shiyu felt that her husband would be in danger of dying suddenly at any time if he could live for another year or two.
"Thank you anyway. Let's say this first and then contact you."
"Okay, if you want to open some, we will contact you again."
Hang up After answering the phone, Shen Lin took a long and deep breath, and then she cheered up a little. She went to the bathroom to wash her hands and face, so that her mind could relax a little and the intense mood swings just now could calm down.
She followed her to warm up a glass of milk for herself to drink. After she felt that she had regained her composure, she sent a video call invitation to Chen Feng.
She now really wants to see Chen Feng and make sure that he is still alive and well.
At this time, Chen Feng happened to be selecting some paintings in the practice room, and planned to take pictures and send them to Shen Lin for her to choose.
At this time, Shen Lin suddenly sent a video call. It was just right, he didn't need to take photos one by one.
So, Chen Feng readily accepted the other party’s video call invitation.
"Why did you suddenly call me via video?"
Chen Feng asked in a natural tone.
When Shen Lin saw Chen Feng's face on the phone screen and heard what he said, her eyes turned red and she almost shed tears.
She still overestimated her ability to regulate her emotions just now.
“Why don’t you speak?”
Chen Feng asked again.
"I miss you."
Shen Lin almost blurted out these words. After she finished speaking, she didn't feel shy, but started to have tears in her eyes.
Chen Feng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard her straightforward words of love.
When the two were passionately in love, Shen Lin said something similar to him before, but it felt like it was already a very distant thing, which made him feel dazed.
Chen Feng also saw the tears in Shen Lin's eyes through the screen of his mobile phone. It didn't feel like she was acting, and he also believed that Shen Lin was not such a hypocritical person.
So, he asked with confusion and concern: "What's wrong with you? Did something unhappy happen to you?" Shen Lin immediately shook her head in denial: "No, I really I just miss you."
When Chen Feng heard her saying such love words again, he felt speechless and couldn't help but want to complain. How many hours have we been apart? Just miss me? Is it that exaggerated?
Chen Feng could only follow her words: "It's okay. Well, I was just picking out paintings for you. Take a look. If you like it, I'll pick it out and bring it to you tomorrow. Go over to you.”
After saying that, Chen Feng changed the direction of the camera and pointed it at the calligraphy, painting and photography works that Chen Feng had purchased and collected.
When Shen Lin saw that Chen Feng had so many calligraphy, painting and photography works, she couldn't help but be stunned. Then she slowly readjusted her mentality and looked at these things carefully.
"What do you think of this "Peony Picture"? It is hand-painted in color and looks very festive. It can be hung in the entrance hall."
Chen Feng pointed to a colorful piece of traditional Chinese painting. The peony picture is mounted in a wooden frame, which looks very good at first glance.
This is also true. Chen Feng originally bought this painting for 150,000 yuan, and it contained life energy that he could absorb for almost twenty minutes.
Now that the energy inside has of course been absorbed by him, sending it to Shen Lin's house to make decorative paintings can't be considered a waste.
After Shen Lin looked at the painting carefully, she also liked it a little, so she said: "This painting looks good, the color is bright, and it has a very high level of quality. How much did you pay for it?"< br>
If Shen Lin didn't ask about the price, of course Chen Feng wouldn't take the initiative to say it.
But now that she asked, Chen Feng couldn't help but answer.
But the price of 150,000 yuan was obviously still a bit high for her, so Chen Feng cut some of the price and said, "50,000 yuan."
"Fifty thousand?! Such a painting costs 50,000? Is it the work of a famous painter?"
Fifty thousand yuan for a painting is still a bit high for Shen Lin. Think about it, how can ordinary people spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy a painting? Moreover, this painting is also used as a decorative painting in the entrance hall.
Chen Feng had no choice but to explain a little: "This painter is a relatively famous master of traditional Chinese painting in our province. I bought his painting for only 50,000 yuan, which is considered a mistake."
< br>When Shen Lin heard that it was a painting by a master, she was able to accept it. After all, she also knew that it was normal for some masters' calligraphy and painting works to cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.
In comparison, this painting worth 50,000 yuan seems a bit cheap.
But for her, a painting at this price is still too expensive.
"Your paintings are still a bit expensive for me, so I'd better not want them. Just pick some paintings that cost a few hundred yuan or even a few thousand yuan and give them to me."
Chen Feng When I heard what Shen Lin said, I wanted to say that the cheapest painting here costs tens of thousands of yuan, but after thinking about it, I finally decided to tell a white lie.
"Okay, I'll pick some cheaper ones for you."
So, next, Chen Feng further lowered the prices of these paintings.
Shen Lin was a little skeptical at first, but she didn't understand this. Chen Feng pointed to a painting that originally cost more than 300,000 yuan and said it was bought for 3,000 yuan, and he said it with nose and eyes, so she chose to believe it.
Of course, in order to make this white lie more rounded, Chen Feng also specially found two or three paintings, saying that they were bought for tens of thousands of yuan.
The reason why he took so much pains to give away the paintings for free and deliberately lied was mainly based on a sense of guilt and compensation.
The two of them had lived together for many years in the house they rented. Later, they were getting married, so they could only use the rented house as a temporary wedding room with the consent of the landlord. Later, minor changes and decorations were made, mainly repainting the walls, and buying some new furniture and decorations, including decorative paintings. The total cost was more than 30,000 yuan, most of which was done by Shen Lin herself. Out of pocket.
This made Chen Feng feel deeply guilty about her at that time. Now he happened to have so many "idle" paintings in his hands, so he gave her a few to decorate the newly purchased house, and saved them to make up for the past. I owe her the thought.
The two of them spent more than half an hour selecting through mobile phone videos, and finally Shen Lin selected a total of six paintings.
Originally, she only wanted five paintings, but Chen Feng suggested that she choose one more painting, just in case there were less paintings.
Shen Lin accepted his kindness.
"About when will you be able to come over tomorrow?"
After selecting the six paintings, Shen Lin wished that Chen Feng would send them to her right now.
It's not that she cares too much about these paintings, but she really wants to see Chen Feng in person, so that she can actually touch and hold him.
"Around nine o'clock, right?" Chen Feng answered.
"Is it so late?" Shen Lin said eagerly, "Can you come over earlier? I will prepare breakfast for you and we will eat together."
Considering her condition, Chen Feng thought After a moment, he nodded in agreement: "Let's do it at half past eight. I'll be at your place before half past eight."
"Okay, I'll make your favorite glutinous rice tomorrow morning."
"Making glutinous rice? Are you talking about the kind of glutinous rice from my hometown?" Chen Feng asked curiously.
"Of course." Shen Lin nodded affirmatively, "I'll cook it for you tomorrow morning."
"Isn't it too troublesome? Do you have glutinous rice over there? And other seasonings? , it’s a bit cumbersome to make.”
“Yes, I have Nuo here. There are rice, some pork, shrimp skin, mushrooms, dried tofu, and green onions, but there are no fried dough sticks. I will just go out and buy two fried dough sticks tomorrow morning."
When Chen Feng heard what she said, he was not satisfied. If he refuses again, it sounds like he wants to eat the sticky rice from his hometown.
In fact, making this Xiuzhou sticky rice is not difficult, but it takes a lot of time.
It is more troublesome to prepare several seasonings, and then the glutinous rice must be steamed first and fried in oil.
Of course, you can also just steam the glutinous rice, then add toppings such as minced meat, minced fried dough sticks, minced mushrooms, chopped green onion, etc., mix it and eat it.
But this is obviously not the most authentic. The most authentic Xiuzhou glutinous rice is to steam the glutinous rice first, then fry it in a pot with lard, and add the seasonings mentioned above. saute.
When the relationship between the two was good, Shen Lin specially learned to make glutinous rice from his hometown, and sometimes she would cook it for him.
But later, as the relationship between the two had some problems, the number of times she made glutinous rice for him became less and less. Two years before the divorce, she never did it for him again.
