Chapter 214 – Visiting A Patient

Jiangsu Province, Ningwan City’s First People’s Hospital .

In ward 1207 of the Department of Hematology and Oncology, several girls were sitting around a hospital bed talking to Meng Meng .

Meng Meng, dressed in hospital gown, looked a little pale, but she was in good spirits . She was chatting and laughing with her three classmate friends1, showing no sign of serious disease .

It was just that on the medical record hanging on the bed frame, there was an AL clearly marked on it in bold black font .

AL was the abbreviation for acute leukemia .

The malignant clonal diseases of hematopoietic stem were once incurable diseases . But now, science and technology are advanced . There are many treatment methods for acute leukemia, among which, bone marrow transplantation has the best effect, with a high cure rate .

But the cost of treatment was also astonishingly high .

Meng Meng’s mother, Zhang Fang, was sitting in a chair not far from the hospital bed . Although she had a smile on her face, there was sadness in her eyes that couldn’t be hidden . She was completely forcing herself to smile .

What worries Zhang Fang was the cost of Meng Meng’s treatment . Even if she used all of her money, and the donations from Meng Meng’s school and classmates, compared to the huge treatment cost, it was just a drop in the bucket .

In order to not make her daughter sad, she never dared to show her inner feelings .

Knock! Knock!

Suddenly, the was a soft knock on the door of the ward, and someone pushed the door open and walked in .

The visitor was a man and a woman . The man was tall and wearing a mask, only his eyes were exposed .

The woman asked in a soft voice, “Excuse me, is this where Little Sister Meng Meng is staying?”

The man also carried a fruit basket in his hand .

“Are you looking for Meng Meng?”

Zhang Fang was stunned for a moment . She stood up and said, “Yes, you are?”

The other party was very strange . There was no such figure in Zhang Fang’s memory to match them up with2 . Are they friends of Little Meng?

However, Meng Meng and the several girls also looked at the visitor with curious eyes .

They don’t know them, either .

The woman said, “Hello, Auntie . We are here to see Little Sister Meng Meng…”

The man went to Meng Meng’s hospital bed . He put down the fruit basket first, then reached out to take off his mask .

“Hello, Meng Meng . ”

Seeing the man’s true face, Meng Meng suddenly opened her eyes wide . Her round face was full of disbelief . She covered her mouth with her hands, completely stunned .

The three girls sitting next to the hospital bed were also dumbfounded!

One of the girls in green skirt shouted excitedly: “Lu… Lu Chen!”

“It’s me…”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “It’s me . Hello . ”

It was Lu Chen and Lu Xi who came to visit Meng Meng . The two took the high-speed train from Hangzhou to Ningwan and went directly to the First People’s Hospital without eating .

Meng Meng blinked her eyes, and big tears immediately fell down .

She wasn’t sad, but too happy and surprised!

Lu Chen sat down on the edge of the hospital bed and said, “I received an email last night . Knowing that you were sick and I happened to be performing in Hangzhou, I stopped by to see you . Are you feeling better now?”

Meng Meng nodded vigorously, and suddenly opened her arms and hugged Lu Chen: “Brother Lu Chen!”

Lu Chen let her hold him, reached out and patted her on the back twice to express comfort .

Now Zhang Fang finally realized that it was her idol who visited her daughter .

Lu Chen!

Zhang Fang was very familiar with this name . Her daughter often talks about him . She was chatting with her classmates about him just now .

This is a big star!

Zhang Fang couldn’t help getting flustered and hurriedly pulled over the chair . She said, “sit down, sit down . ”

Lu Xi stopped her and said, “Auntie, no need to trouble yourself . I have something to talk to you about . Is it convenient for you?”

Zhang Fang nodded repeatedly: “Convenient! Convenient!”

Meng Meng hugged Lu Chen for more than half a minute before she let go with a red face .

She asked, “Brother Lu Chen, who sent you the email?”

This was what Meng Meng was most curious about .

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, “She said she was your classmate . Her ID was Rain Elf . ”

Meng Meng and the other two girls turned their heads and looked at the girl in green skirt . The latter lower her head, raised her hand and said timidly, “I admit it . I wrote the email to Brother Lu Chen . ”

She raised her head again and looked at Lu Chen with bright eyes: “I didn’t expect Brother Lu Chen would come . ”

This was what moved the girl in green skirt the most . She had just sent out the email for help last night .

Meng Meng angrily said, “Little Yu, you shouldn’t have kept it from us . If you do this, are were still good girlfriends?”

The girl in green skirt had a bitter face: “Little Meng, I know I was wrong . ”

Lu Chen couldn’t help laughing .

These 18 or 19-year-old girls were in the best age of their lives .

He became more and more determined to help Meng Meng!

A girl said excitedly: “I think Xiao Yu has done a good deed . Otherwise, how can we see Brother Lu Chen in person? Come on, come on, let’s take a picture!”

Meng Meng said with a smile, “Then take a picture of me and Brother Lu Chen first . ”

This small request, Lu Chen, of course, unconditionally satisfied the four girls, and took a lot of photos with them .

He also took a few pictures with his own cellphone .

After taking the photo, Lu Chen asked about Meng Meng’s condition again .

Meng Meng’s disease has been brought under control for the time being . Currently, conservative treatment was being used . For her to be really cured, she has to undergo a number of chemotherapy or a bone marrow transplant .

Speaking of this, there was a bit of worry added to Meng Meng’s face .

Lu Chen comforted: “Little Sister Meng Meng, you don’t have to worry . If you have any difficulties, everyone will help you . All you have to do now is to cooperate with the doctor to treat the disease well, okay?”

Meng Meng nodded: “Okay, Brother Lu Chen, I am really glad that you’ve come to see me . ”

Lu Chen smiled .

At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open again, and a white-haired old lady came in with a child of about three or four years old . The former was still holding an IV drip bottle in her hand .

A needle was stuck in the little patient’s wrist . He looked at Lu Chen curiously with his big black eyes, and then climbed onto the adjacent hospital bed .

Lu Chen saw that the old lady had some difficulty hanging the bottle, so he hurriedly got up to help her hang it on the hook beside the bed .

The old lady was grateful: “Thank you . ”

The little guy asked, “Big Sister Meng Meng, who is he?”

The little guy’s eyes were very big and his head was also big, but all his hair has been shaved off . With his youthful skin, he looked like a clever little monk .

Meng Meng said with a smile, “This is big sister’s idol, Big Brother Lu Chen!”

The little guy asked, “What is an idol?”

Meng Meng replied earnestly: “It is the person that big sister admires most and likes most!”

The little guy seemed to understand but not really understand: “Uh…”

As Lu Chen looked at this very lovable kid, he couldn’t help but reach out and touch his head: “How old are you?”

The little guy replied cleverly, “Chengcheng is four years old . ”

Lu Chen glanced at his medical record and found that his disease was exactly the same as that of Meng Meng .

Meng Meng obviously liked the little guy very much . She took out a big red apple from the fruit basket and gave it to him .

Such a small child .

Lu Chen sighed secretly in his heart .

He could see that the family condition of the little patient was not good . The old lady was dressed very plainly .

It was estimated that they were the same as Meng Meng . They also couldn’t afford the cost of treatment .

There were so many people in need of help in this world . Lu Chen felt the weakness of his personal strength more and more .

He has experienced drastic changes in his family, has experienced despair, and has worked hard to make a living, so he could understand the pain and sorrow of ordinary people in the face of difficulties .

Now Lu Chen has broken out of his difficult position and has realized his wish . He was also willing to do his best to help others .

Starting with Meng Meng!

A few minutes later, Lu Xi and Meng Meng’s mother, Zhang Fang, came back together .

There were still traces of tears in the corners of Zhang Fang’s eyes .

Lu Xi nodded to Lu Chen . Lu Chen said to Meng Meng, “Little Sister Meng Meng, I have to go back . Treat your illness here well . If you have anything, you can call me . ”

He left his personal phone number to Meng Meng .

Meng Meng was very reluctant to part, but she was very sensible, and didn’t make Lu Chen embarrassed: “Okay, goodbye, Brother Lu Chen . ”

The several other girls also said reluctantly, “Goodbye, Brother Lu Chen!”

“Goodbye…”

Lu Chen smiled and said to Zhang Fang, “Goodbye, Auntie . ”

“Thank you!”

Tears filled Zhang Fang’s eyes again . She said excitedly: “Thank you so much!”

Just now, Lu Xi learned about Meng Meng’s treatment from her in private, and then gave her 10,000 yuan .

Most importantly, Lu Xi, on behalf of Lu Chen, promised that they would find ways to help Meng Meng raise funds for the cost of treatment .

Zhang Fang was extremely grateful .

The relationship between Lu Chen and Meng Meng was originally just an ordinary relationship between a star and a fan . Lu Chen didn’t have any obligation to help Meng Meng, let alone make such a promise .

But he not only came, but also brought money and hope!

What Zhang Fang needed most now was this hope .

After visiting Meng Meng, Lu Chen and Lu Xi didn’t immediately leave the First People’s Hospital, but through the nurses on duty, they found the attending and inquired about the cost of the treatment .

The people from the hospital told the two that a situation like Meng Meng, a bone marrow transplant was necessary, and the total treatment cost was about 1 million yuan .

The problem was that this kind of serious illness wasn’t covered by ordinary medical insurance . Meng Meng didn’t purchase the corresponding serious illness insurance, so the part that could be reimbursed was very limited .

And in the First People’s Hospital, there were several people who were in the same situation as Meng Meng .

After leaving the People’s Hospital, Lu Chen and Lu Xi didn’t stay in Ningwan City . They took the high-speed train back to Beijing that night .

The next morning, Lu Chen came to Muchen Crowdfunding Company above the studio and found Li Mushi .

After careful consideration, he decided to use crowdfunding to solve Meng Meng’s medical expenses .

But now Lu Chen was no longer the chairman of Muchen Crowdfunding, so he has to discuss this matter with Li Mushi and win the latter’s approval .

After hearing about Lu Chen’s intention, Li Mushi didn’t hesitate at all: “No problem!”

“The project can be arranged to go online today…”

“Moreover, for this charity crowdfunding, our Muchen Crowdfunding will not charge half a penny of commission!”
