Chapter 1268: What defeats suffering is suffering that is deeper than it

"Brother Li, are you a doctor?"

After hearing what Li Xiangnan said, Xia Haiyang was dumbfounded.

"Yes!" Li Xiangnan nodded, turned sideways, and made way for the Nianwei Hospital building behind him.

"But I'm not a doctor!" Xia Haiyang scratched his head and put down the carrying pole.

"You don't need to be a doctor to save this man!" Li Xiangnan came over and helped him carry the bamboo dustpan back. "So you agree?"

"Brother Li, I don't know if I can help, but if I can save someone... I'm willing to do it!" Xia Haiyang picked up the other bamboo dustpan with one hand and stuffed the shoulder pole into it. "Where is that person?"

"In the hospital, let's go!" Li Xiangnan smiled slightly, took him into the hospital yard, put the bamboo dustpan into the guard room, and reminded: "Master Xia, please take a look at his things!"

"Hey, Dean..."

Master Xia was about to agree, but when he saw Li Xiangnan shaking his head at him, he immediately stopped and nodded, "Okay, got it. Don't worry, I'll keep it here for safety!"

Only then did Li Xiangnan lead Xia Haiyang into the building.

This was Xia Haiyang's first time in Nianwei Hospital. The spacious and bright hall and the bustling crowds of people all felt novel to him, but his curiosity about the surroundings soon subsided and he followed Li Xiangnan upstairs closely.

At the same time, he did not forget to ask: "Brother Li, how can I help you?"

Li Xiangnan did not answer him immediately, but smiled and reminded him: "Wait a minute and I will tell you!"

They soon arrived at the third floor. Without stopping, he took Xia Haiyang through the sky corridor to the third floor of the inpatient department.

Before the establishment of the oncology department, cancer patients were like "survivors on a medical island", transferred between the surgery, internal medicine and radiotherapy departments.

Now Gong Xinmei is arranged to be hospitalized in the Internal Medicine Department II ward with her son Ge Dongxu.

Arriving outside the ward, Li Xiangnan did not go in immediately. Instead, he took a look inside through the window, and then explained seriously and calmly: "Xiao Xia, look inside! The person I want you to save is that young man!"

Xia Haiyang frowned and stood on tiptoe to look into the window.

Sure enough, I saw two people in the ward.

An aunt was knitting a sweater on the bed, and another person was sitting in a wheelchair, looking up at the sky outside, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Brother Li, this man looks older than me. You just said that we don't need a doctor to save him. What's going on? What role can I play?"

Seeing Xia Haiyang's puzzled look, Li Xiangnan pointed outward, took out a cigarette as he walked, and finally stopped at the sky corridor.

"This is a special patient that the hospital has admitted before! After he was admitted, whenever I was in the hospital, I would come to see him and chat with him every day! I would try to take him for a walk outside... This child's heart has been closed for too long, and it is not easy to cure him! Not to mention his mother..."

Having said that, Li Xiangnan exhaled a puff of smoke and turned to look at Xia Haiyang.

"I'm going back to my hometown for the New Year, so I won't be here for ten days! Although there are doctors here to look after him, ten days is still too long for him, and every day of the remaining time is precious!"

Hearing the urgency in his tone, Xia Haiyang asked in confusion: "Brother Li, what on earth happened to him?"

"Eleven years ago..."

So Li Xiangnan smoked a cigarette and told Xia Haiyang everything about Ge Dongxu.

After listening, Xia Haiyang leaned on the railing, hugged his arms and said nothing.

Li Xiangnan did not urge him, but just smoked his fourth cigarette and looked at the sky of Yanjing City which had not cleared for a long time.

"I understand, Brother Li, you want Ge Dongxu to cheer up completely before his mother leaves!" Xia Haiyang clenched his fists and suppressed the sadness that was rising in his throat.

"That's right!" Li Xiangnan looked at him and said, "You are fourteen years old. You have both the experience of an adult and the spirit of a teenager. Nineteen-year-old Ge Dongxu's mental age is not as good as yours. You will definitely be able to influence him to get out of his own prison!"

Xia Haiyang was surprised and asked, "Brother Li, why are you so sure? How do you know I will succeed?"

"No, I don't know!" Li Xiangnan shook his head. "It's just a hunch! But I'm willing to try any method that can save him!"

He felt that Xia Haiyang must have some qualities that would surpass his influence on Ge Dongxu.

"..." Xia Haiyang was stunned.

He saw qualities in this man that were very different from those in other doctors.

"Are you willing to help me?" Li Xiangnan looked into his eyes.

"Brother Li, I do!" Xia Haiyang nodded without hesitation, then turned and walked towards the ward.

Li Xiangnan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Is it starting now?"

Xia Haiyang stopped and nodded, "Yes, Brother Li, didn't you say you wanted to take him out?"

"Where to go?"

"Go to my house!"

Li Xiangnan's eyes lit up, "Okay!"

The two arrived at the ward one after another.

Gong Xinmei saw Li Xiangnan coming in, and quickly got off the bed and shouted, "Dongxu, Dongxu, your brother Li is here to see you!"

Li Xiangnan smiled at her and pointed at Xia Haiyang behind him and introduced him, "Aunt Gong, this is Xia Haiyang, my friend!"

"Hello Auntie!"

"Hello!"

The two chatted for a while.

When someone came in, Ge Dongxu lowered his head quickly, not daring to look at anyone.

But his previous state of trembling when seeing people is gone!

The somatization symptoms have been greatly alleviated.

Li Xiangnan squatted down in front of Ge Dongxu, held his hand, and said with a smile: "Dongxu, I brought a friend to see you! Let's go out for a walk together!"

Ge Dongxu didn't answer and subconsciously clenched his palms.

"Don't be afraid, Dongxu. Doctor Li, are you still worried? He rescued you! He has been visiting you every day these days!" Gong Xinmei found the child's cotton-padded jacket and put it on him. She smiled and rubbed her son's face. "It's good to go out for a walk! You have to adapt to the outside world now! School is different from society after all!"

She didn't know whether her son could understand her, but she knew that if she didn't say something, it would be too late!

"Let's go, as usual, I'll carry you!" Li Xiangnan squatted in front of Ge Dongxu.

Gong Xinmei skillfully found a rope and tied her son to his back.

"Aunt Gong, let's go!"

Li Xiangnan carried Ge Dongxu on his back and slowly walked out of the ward and went downstairs.

Xia Haiyang followed all the way, and when he arrived at the guard room to get back his bamboo dustpan, he also took a look at the inpatient ward at the back.

Gong Xinmei stood in the sky corridor on the third floor, like a silent guardian statue.

Xia Haiyang caught up with Li Xiangnan who was walking out of the yard. He held the dustpan with one hand and helped Ge Dongxu on Li Xiangnan's back with the other hand, and spoke softly.

"Brother Dongxu, you are much happier than me. You still have a mother by your side. As for me, I lost my parents when I was five years old, and it will be the tenth year soon..."

Li Xiangnan paused slightly.

His mind suddenly became clear and he understood the telepathic connection that had just occurred on the overpass.

What defeats suffering must be suffering that is deeper than it.

Ge Dongxu's experience would not be a big deal for Xia Haiyang...
