Time flew by, and over a month had passed, bringing us to June. Wei Song finally received the first good news regarding his injury.

After three successive surgeries by the top domestic surgeons, Wei Song's hand had basically completed the pre-surgery treatment plan.

The external wound had healed and stitches were removed, with the first round of hand function assessment conducted.

The results were much better than the original prediction made by the doctors at Wachan People's Hospital. The functions of all five fingers were largely unimpaired, but due to the injury, his grip strength had significantly decreased, requiring systematic training and recovery in the future.

According to the expert evaluation, it would be difficult to restore the pre-injury functional intensity, but with regular therapy and exercise, restoring six or seven-tenths of the function is possible. Daily life would not be significantly affected unless engaged in heavy physical labor.

High-quality medical resources indeed resulted in better recovery from trauma, but came with significant expenses.

Wei Song spent over a month in the hospital, going through four complicated corrective surgeries. By the time the stitches were removed and the first functional assessment completed, he had spent over four hundred thousand yuan, and would require several more tens of thousands during the ongoing recovery period for periodic check-ups and adjustments to the recovery training plan.

Faced with such daunting costs, Wei Song's savings alone would be insufficient if he didn't borrow money from friends or family. Unless he sold his house, it would be nearly impossible for him to manage on his own.

But with Zhang Yang's promise covering the costs, the financial resources for treatment remained ample. By the time the attending experts said he could be discharged for home rehabilitation and training, he still had more than fifty thousand yuan left.

On the day of discharge, Zhang Yang and Meng Fan personally went to pick Wei Song up and the four of them flew back to Wachan.

The journey was silent, and upon returning home in Wachan, as soon as they entered the door, Wei Song dropped to his knees in front of Zhang Yang.

"Wei, what are you doing? Get up quickly!" Zhang Yang hurried to help him.

"Zhang Yang, Brother, Little Meng, thank you both!

I've lived half my life, made many friends when I had money, but when it came to a critical moment, only a few would lend a helping hand, and most are insincere or even laugh at me behind my back!

You're different — finding experts and funding my treatment recovery! I'll remember this friendship for life.

Whenever you need me, Wei, just say the word and it'll be done!"

Saying this, Wei Song was already moved, with tears in his tiger eyes.

Life has its ups and downs, having witnessed so much of human's harshness, friends like Zhang Yang and Meng Fan's style of doing things are becoming rarer.

Some might criticize, saying it was initially due to Zhang Yang and Meng Fan's matters that offended Brother Ma and Wei Song got hurt. Zhang Yang and Meng Fan funding the treatment shouldn't warrant gratitude, right?

The reasoning is indeed like that, the root cause is indeed with Meng Fan, but adults view affairs from both objective and subjective perspectives.

Putting it bluntly, Wei Song got injured, and Brother Ma Weiqi is primarily responsible, he should compensate and pay for the medical expenses, Zhang Yang and the others could just symbolically pay some tens of thousands and exit without further involvement.

Whether from a legal or moral standpoint, this approach is flawless, even Wei Song himself couldn't fault Zhang Yang.

But Zhang Yang didn't do that, instead, he took full responsibility for the matter onto himself,

In Wachan, treatment would cost at most tens of thousands for surgical stitching, and according to the doctor's estimate, hand function recovery would be three or four-tenths, Wei Song's career would be basically over.

Yet with Zhang Yang and Meng Fan's intervention, finding the best surgical experts and fully covering medical expenses, the functionality of the right hand can restore to six or seven-tenths or even higher, significantly better than three or four-tenths.

If fully trained later on, it's possible to pick up the fishing rod again.

Wei Song knew the huge difference therein, hence his extreme excitement.

Zhang Yang grinned: "A good recovery is the best result! We brothers won't talk about other matters!

The expert Little Fan found also said, in the next six months to one year, it's your golden recovery period, make sure to seize this phase to strengthen training and restore functionality!

I'm still looking forward to competing with you in the future!"

Wei Song raised his right hand, performing a slow gripping motion, his five fingers gradually forming a fist, then said resolutely, "I will surely practice, if my right hand recovers well, I'll use my right hand; if not, I'll train my left hand! I won't give up!

Oh, about the medical expenses you covered, I can't repay you yet, how about I write you an IOU? I still have many accounts outside, once I gather them, I'll repay you at the first opportunity!"

Upon hearing money mentioned, Zhang Yang smiled and shook his head: "The matter was instigated by me and Little Fan, you got caught in the crossfire, so for now, I won't ask for the treatment costs I paid.

Whenever Ma Weiqi is judged and compensation is received, then let's talk about money repayment!"

"That's not appropriate!"

Wei Song shook his head after hearing this, friends can help, but not in such a way.

Zhang Yang grinned, speaking in a relaxed tone: "Why? After all, you're a Third-level Competitive Fishing Master, aren't you worth these trifles?"
