How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 137

My Dad and Second Uncle Can’t Do It, So Why Can He? (Subscription Requested)

Long United States International Hospital is just a legend and news to many people. In reality, they can’t afford to go to this kind of hospital.

“Long United States International Hospital? My God, that’s not a place ordinary people can go to. It’s said that even a cold or fever costs several thousand dollars. The two teachers’ cancer treatments, wouldn’t that require selling the house?”

“The key is that it’s a for-profit hospital, and it’s a joint venture with a foreign country. It doesn’t accept medical insurance, so you have to pay for everything yourself.”

“Alas… but I heard that the medical level there is indeed very high. If there’s a disease on Earth that only one hospital can cure, it must be Long United States International Hospital. Maybe they have the confidence, so they dare to charge such high fees.”

“Doctor, do you know how much it would cost for the whole treatment if the two teachers’ conditions can be cured?”

“Yes, yes, please estimate it for us so we can consider it. If it’s not too much, I think we can try. If it’s too much, no one can do anything.”

…

Niu Miaochun replied, “If you go to Long United States Hospital and use a general chief physician, I’m afraid they won’t dare to operate like me. You must invite experts from abroad to perform the surgery, which is very expensive. You just said that it is a for-profit hospital, and ordinary registration fees cost hundreds. These world-class oncology experts have appearance fees of at least one hundred thousand U.S. dollars. Because when they are needed, it means that the patient has already stepped into the gate of hell, and they have the confidence to charge so much money. It also depends on how many patients are scheduled. If there are many patients scheduled, then it depends on who is willing to spend money. The higher the price, the more likely you are to invite him, which is not as simple as one hundred thousand U.S. dollars. If you understand the foreign medical system, you should know that you have to make an appointment in advance to see a doctor in a foreign country. It is common for minor illnesses to turn into major illnesses, and major illnesses to turn into death. This is just his appearance fee, not including surgery and other expenses. If it can be cured, it will definitely cost 300,000 U.S. dollars for the entire treatment. To put it bluntly, it is purely using money to extend life. It depends on your own ideas. If you think money is important, then receive conservative treatment here and spend the last few months happily. If you think people are important, then find a way to raise money to go to Long United States International Hospital. I’m going to get off work, so you can think about it carefully. Be sure to be fast; you are now racing against death. If you delay one more day, the condition will be completely different.”

After speaking, Niu Miaochun left with the medical staff.

The ward was deathly silent.

Three hundred thousand U.S. dollars is two million Dragon Country currency [Chinese Yuan].

For ordinary people, it is impossible to get so much money.

Wang Tingting’s family still has a house to sell, so if treatment is necessary, there is still a way.

However, Li Chunlan has no house to sell. Over the years, she has spent almost all her savings to train her daughter to become a star.

In addition, she has spent a lot of money on medical treatment recently, and she has almost nothing left.

Otherwise, Zhang Yanni would not be studying and working part-time as an extra to earn money to subsidize the family.

Wang Tingting’s husband, Li Lianqing, said, “If it can really be cured, we have to sell the house for treatment. The key is, can we make an appointment with a foreign expert?”

“Didn’t Yang Tianming just say that his father is the supermarket chairman? His second uncle is the deputy director of the Administration for Industry and Commerce [a government agency regulating businesses], so he must be able to make an appointment.”

“Yes! Yang Tianming, give it a try. The two teachers are waiting for you to save their lives.”

“Yes, yes! Yang Tianming, call and ask. If you can make an appointment with an expert, then the two teachers will transfer there.”

…

Zhang Yanni also quickly said, “Young Master Yang, please help me make an appointment for my mother too. Thank you.”

Yang Tianming likes this kind of treatment. The more others curry favor with him, the more he can be satisfied, especially when it comes to a request from a beautiful woman who can become a star.

However, if he helps Zhang Yanni’s mother make an appointment for an expert without any benefits, that is not his style.

He can’t agree to this matter, nor can he refuse. He’s waiting for Zhang Yanni to come to him privately so that he can make some excessive demands.

Now, selling a car, selling a house, selling insurance, or financial management may require sacrificing the body. Wouldn’t it be unreasonable not to give some benefits for the kindness of saving a mother?

Yang Tianming said with a smile, “Don’t worry, everyone. I am also Teacher Wang’s student. It’s just a small matter, and I will definitely not refuse. I will call my dad and my second uncle now and ask them to help make an appointment with an expert. Leave this matter to me; there is absolutely no problem! Teacher Wang, hurry up and pack your things and go through the discharge procedures.”

Wang Tingting and her husband were very happy and quickly packed their things to prepare for discharge.

Zhang Yanni quickly asked again, “Young Master Yang, my mother…”

Yang Tianming replied with a smile, “It’s easy to say. I’ll arrange things for Teacher Wang first, and then I’ll arrange things for your mother.”

Zhang Yanni thanked with a smile, “Thank you, thank you.”

Chen Chunlan also quickly thanked, “Thank you, Young Master Yang.”

Yang Tianming raised his head high, feeling very proud.

He just has such a family background, and others can’t do anything about it even if they don’t like it.

Director Niu just said that the result will be different if you delay it for another day.

Yang Chen certainly couldn’t let Teacher Chen be put behind. If there is only one expert, then he must give priority to treating Teacher Chen and not treat Teacher Wang.

At this time, you have to be selfish when you should be selfish.

While Chen Chunlan and Zhang Yanni were packing their things, Yang Chen went to the corridor and called Zhang Senmiao.

Zhang Senmiao: “Haha… Mr. Yang, what do you want to talk to me about so late?”

Yang Chen: “It’s like this, my kindergarten teacher has liver cancer. Director Niu of the Tumor Hospital said that only our Long United States International Hospital has a chance to cure it, and we need to invite experts from abroad. I want to ask if our hospital has such strength?”

Zhang Senmiao: “Director Niu of the Tumor Hospital, is that Director Niu Miaochun?”

Yang Chen: “Yes! It’s him!”

Zhang Senmiao: “He is an authoritative expert. If he says that our hospital can cure it, it means that we have a very high chance of curing it. I’ll call the dean to arrange a ward, and you can let the teacher come over for an examination first. Our experts will give treatment opinions, and we will know if it can be cured.”

Yang Chen: “Okay! We’ll transfer to your hospital right away.”

Yang Chen hung up the phone and turned back to the ward. From a distance, he saw Yang Tianming walking over.

“Yang Chen, right?” Yang Tianming asked.

Yang Chen nodded.

Yang Tianming: “I like Zhao Yun, and I’m also attracted to Zhang Yanni. I don’t want to bully you. You take the initiative to stay away from them. As long as you leave quietly, I will help your Teacher Chen make an appointment with an expert. Think about it carefully and make a decision as soon as possible. Your Teacher Chen can’t afford to wait.”

After speaking, Yang Tianming turned around and went back triumphantly.

Yang Chen looked at him with the eyes of an idiot. He really couldn’t be bothered to argue with this kind of idiot.

If you like someone, go after them. What’s the point of saying these useless words?

Soon, the two teachers packed their things and went through the discharge procedures.

Yang Tianming and others sent Wang Tingting to Long United States International Hospital, and Yang Chen drove his Phaeton [a luxury sedan] to send Chen Chunlan and Zhang Yanni over.

Chen Chunlan: “Chenzi, where do you live now?”

Yang Chen: “I live in Lujiazui [a financial district in Shanghai].”

Chen Chunlan: “Oh. Is it hard to drive a car usually?”

Yang Chen: “It’s okay. I don’t expect to get rich from this. It’s enough to earn a few hundred dollars a day.”

Zhang Yanni: “Then do you have a girlfriend?”

Yang Chen: “No.”

Zhang Yanni: “Oh, no wonder. Girls nowadays spend a lot of money. My classmates spend tens of thousands of dollars every month. If you have a girlfriend, don’t find that kind. Find an honest one; otherwise, you can’t afford to support her, and you’ll easily get cheated on.”

Chen Chunlan glared at her daughter and said, “Yanni, what are you talking about?”

Zhang Yanni stuck out her tongue and said, “I’m telling the truth. Mom, you don’t know, some girls are so materialistic now that even I, a girl, can’t stand it. However, there are more men than women now, and many men can’t find wives, so they can only indulge them. There’s nothing they can do about it.”

Chen Chunlan: “Then you can’t learn from them. We are just ordinary people, and we should live ordinary lives. We don’t seek great wealth; we only seek a clear conscience and peace. Mom has told you many times that you people in the arts are most tempted. If you are not firm-willed, you can easily be led astray. You must always keep your mind clear and not degenerate. Understand?”

Zhang Yanni: “Yeah, I know. Don’t worry, if I can’t make it as an actress, I’ll come back and drive a taxi with Brother Chen. A few hundred dollars a day is not bad, enough for food and expenses. Brother Chen, you have to take me with you then.”

Yang Chen: “Haha… no problem.”

Seeing her daughter and Yang Chen chatting so harmoniously, Chen Chunlan was very happy.

If she only has a few months to live, she hopes that Yang Chen can take care of Zhang Yanni more in the future.

If they don’t have feelings for each other, she hopes that Yang Chen can be her family member and support her when Zhang Yanni gets married in the future.

Soon, Long United States International Hospital arrived.

For the convenience of treatment, mutual care, and to save on hospitalization fees, Wang Tingting and Chen Chunlan stayed in the same ward again.

Soon, Wang Zhongjing, an expert in oncology at Long United States International Hospital, came with his team.

“Which one is Mr. Yang?” Wang Zhongjing asked.

Everyone’s first reaction was Yang Tianming, and they quickly looked at him.

Yang Tianming raised his head and replied triumphantly, “I am.”

Wang Zhongjing quickly stepped forward to shake hands and greet him, saying, “Hello, Mr. Yang, I am Wang Zhongjing, an expert in oncology at the hospital. I am here on the order of the dean to do an examination and evaluation for your teacher.”

Yang Tianming was very proud. It seemed that his father and second uncle had a lot of energy. Even the dean of Long United States International Hospital had to give them face.

Yang Tianming said with a smile, “Hello, Dr. Wang, this is my high school homeroom teacher, Teacher Wang. Please take a look at her.”

Wang Zhongjing nodded and quickly said, “No problem. Teacher Wang, please come with me; we will do the examination.”

Wang Tingting nodded and said with a smile, “Okay, okay. Teacher Chen, please wait a moment; it will be your turn when I’m done.”

Chen Chunlan nodded and said, “Okay, okay. Teacher Wang, go for the examination first. I’m fine; I can wait.”

Wang Tingting nodded and followed Wang Zhongjing and others to do the examination, accompanied by her husband.

“Wow, Yang Tianming, you are so amazing; even the dean of Long United States Hospital has to give you face.”

“After all, he is the chairman of a chain supermarket and the deputy director of the Administration for Industry and Commerce. His social connections must be strong enough!”

“You have found the dean’s relationship, so there must be no problem with foreign experts.”

…

Yang Tianming replied triumphantly, “It’s just a small matter. It may be a little difficult for you, but for me, these are just ordinary normal interactions. If you need anything in the future, just ask me. I will definitely not refuse to help you solve the problem.”

Well, this wave of bragging is good; it has the right flavor.

“Young Master Yang is awesome; we will rely on you in the future.”

“Being a classmate with Young Master Yang may be the most correct choice I have made in my life.”

“That’s right, that’s the truth. The luckiest thing in my life is being a classmate with Tianming.”

“Haha…”

…

These people are also excellent at flattering. Anyone who hears it will be confused.

However, their thoughts can also be understood. They know that Yang Tianming likes this, so they have to follow him. As long as they coax him well, they may really be able to ask him for help if they encounter something in the future.

People who have been beaten by society will know how important relationships are. Sometimes, they don’t even know who to give money to solve things.

Alas…

At this time, Zhang Yanni called, so he went out to answer it.

Yang Tianming seized the opportunity and went out on the pretext of going to the toilet.

After Zhang Yanni finished the call, Yang Tianming stepped forward and said with a smile, “Hello, Miss Zhang.”

Zhang Yanni said very humbly, “Young Master Yang, hello. I still have to ask you for help with my mother’s matter. Thank you.”

Yang Tianming replied with a smile, “It’s easy to say. Miss Zhang, are you free later? Let’s go out for supper together, and I will definitely make an appointment with an expert for your mother tomorrow morning.”

Zhang Yanni’s face changed drastically, and her anger rose.

However, for her mother’s illness, she still held back from erupting.

“Young Master Yang, it’s just a matter of convenience for you; why do you have to use this matter to blackmail us ordinary people?” Zhang Yanni said.

Yang Tianming chuckled and said, “There is no free lunch in this world, and there is no reason to ask others to help for nothing. Miss Zhang should understand this, right? After all, it is to save your mother’s life; isn’t it right to pay a little price? In ancient times, there were people who sold themselves to bury their fathers and sold themselves to bury their mothers. Now that there is an opportunity to save your mother’s life, you are not even as good as the ancients, right?”

Damn, this guy can not only brag but also brainwash people.

Zhang Yanni’s eyes were sharp, and she glared at Yang Tianming angrily.

Yang Tianming was very proud and said,

“I’m not in a hurry; anyway, it’s not my mother who is sick. You can think about it slowly; I hope your mother can hold on until you make up your mind.”

After speaking, Yang Tianming walked towards the toilet.

Zhang Yanni was so angry that she cried.

But Yang Tianming is her mother’s only chance now. If she doesn’t agree to his shameless request, does she really have to watch her mother die in a few months?

Zhang Yanni returned to the ward.

Seeing that her expression was not right, Yang Chen guessed that Yang Tianming must have made an excessive request to her just now.

Damn it, Zhang Senmiao, you bastard, it’s really difficult to get things done.

Is this how you want to win over Yang Chen’s 20% equity?

Yang Chen excused himself to go to the toilet and went out to call Zhang Senmiao.

Zhang Senmiao: “Mr. Yang, how is it? Have the results of your old man’s examination come out?”

Yang Chen: “What do you think? I’ve been here for more than half an hour, and you haven’t even sent a doctor over. It’s really difficult to get you to do something! Then I’ll find Thomas Robinson and let him bring experts directly from the United States. He will definitely be very happy.”

Zhang Senmiao was shocked and said, “Ah? Impossible! Just now, Dean Li called me and said that he had arranged for an expert team represented by Wang Zhongjing to examine your teacher.”

Yang Chen: “Huh? Did you send Wang Zhongjing and his team?”

Zhang Senmiao: “Yes! What happened?”

Yang Chen: “You got it wrong! They took another patient for examination, not my teacher. Didn’t you tell them my name? Just ask Mr. Yang; they thought it was Yang Tianming. I also misunderstood; I thought Yang Tianming asked his dad and second uncle for help.”

Zhang Senmiao: “Ah? Is there such a thing? These bastards, they can’t even handle a small matter well. Who is Yang Tianming? I don’t know him at all!”

Yang Chen: “He said that his father is the chairman of what Haishang Mingyue [likely a supermarket chain], and his second uncle is the deputy director of a certain Administration for Industry and Commerce.”

Zhang Senmiao: “The chairman of a broken supermarket and an unknown deputy director of the Administration for Industry and Commerce, they also want to find a relationship with me? Are they qualified? Mr. Yang, calm down; I will go over now and personally order them to examine your teacher. I’m sorry, I’m sorry; don’t be angry.”

Yang Chen: “Okay.”

…

At this time, in the toilet, Yang Tianming was answering his father’s call.

Yang Tianming: “Ah? Even you can’t make an appointment, Dad?”

Yang Tianming’s father: “This hospital is special, and I can’t contact the dean, let alone foreign experts. But this hospital has one good thing: as long as there is enough money, everything is not a problem.”

Yang Tianming: “The problem is that my teacher doesn’t have money now. She has to sell the house if she wants treatment. I was thinking that if you and my second uncle could help, she could spend less.”

Yang Tianming’s father: “You are really good at causing trouble for your dad and second uncle. Okay, that’s it; I won’t waste my time talking to you; come back early.”

After speaking, his father hung up the phone.

At this time, his second uncle also called.

Second Uncle: “Tianming, I’m sorry; Second Uncle has used all his contacts and can only contact Long United States Hospital to take care of your teacher. But there is really no way for foreign experts; this must be paid for by your teacher. So, Second Uncle didn’t waste his favors and didn’t help you find a relationship; let him spend money.”

After speaking, his second uncle also hung up the phone.

Yang Tianming was completely dumbfounded. According to his father and second uncle, he couldn’t make an appointment with a foreign expert, and he didn’t even say hello to the hospital because he didn’t want to waste his favors.

So, the question is, who found Wang Zhongjing and his team?

They clearly said they were looking for Mr. Yang.

“Ah! No way! It can’t be him, right?” Yang Tianming was shocked and muttered to himself.

There are only two people in the ward with the surname Yang: Yang Tianming and Yang Chen. The Mr. Yang that Wang Zhongjing and others said must be Yang Chen, right?

“Impossible! Impossible! He is just a taxi driver. My dad is the chairman, and my second uncle is the deputy director. They can’t get the relationship, so why can a taxi driver get it? Right! It doesn’t make sense at all; don’t scare yourself,” Yang Tianming muttered to himself.

The problem in front of him is too big. He has already bragged, and he has also accepted everyone’s flattery, and even blackmailed Zhang Yanni into dedicating herself to him.

Now that his father and second uncle have said that they can’t get the relationship here, how can he continue to brag?

“Damn, if it really doesn’t work… run away. It’s better to not have high school classmates in the future than to be exposed in public and not be able to step down, right?” Yang Tianming muttered.
