Chapter 168: Father-Daughter Relation

She noticed the tag on his white coat which read ‘Resident Physician: Zhang Jingting’.

“Doctor Zhang, how is my dad?” Fang Xinxin asked a bit impatiently.

“His bedsores are serious, but they can still be treated. However, the rotten flesh on his legs needs to be removed through surgery immediately. If we don’t do so, his life will be in danger!” Zhang Jingting, who was around forty years old, replied seriously.

Fang Xinxin panicked and responded. “Will his life be saved if we go ahead with the surgery?”

She had just realised that, in her past life, her father died ten days from this date.

“If we conduct the surgery immediately, he should be fine.” Zhang Jingting assured her.

Fang Xinxin spoke without hesitating. “In that case, please arrange for it immediately.”

“Long Yifan’s body is too… dirty. We need someone to clean him up for the surgery. Otherwise, there may be a risk of infection.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Xinxin immediately took off her father’s clothes and brought over a basin of water to wipe him thorough;y. “Doctor, please call someone over. It will be faster if I have some help.”

Zhang Jingting looked troubled. “His body is really dirty. Our care workers are employed externally. They may not listen to our orders. I’m afraid they won’t be willing…”

“Call one over right now. I’ll pay them ten times their rate.”

“I’ll immediately arrange for it.” Zhang Jingting knew that she had not only cleared the bills but also left fifty thousand dollars as emergency funds. He was not worried that she would not be able to pay up.

He brought his phone out and made a call before informing her. “A care worker will come over immediately.”

Zhang Jingting took in Long Yifan’s dirty and smelly figure. He could not help but sigh!

“In fact, with Long Yifan’s state, even though his fees were not paid, we have been mulling over conducting the surgery on our own to prevent any life-threatening risks. However, only the names Fang Lilan and Fang Shaohua were registered as his family members in our records. I made multiple calls to Fang Lilan but she insisted that she was not concerned about the patient’s condition. She even told us to mind our own business and refused to pay the fees. Moreover, she blocked the hospital’s phone numbers. As for Fang Shaohua, our calls couldn’t get through to him at any point. We couldn’t contact any of Long Yifan’s family members and without a signed consent form, we did not dare to conduct the operation. After all, if something went wrong, we wouldn’t be able to take responsibility for it.”

Fang Xinxin did not blame them. “I can only condemn myself for being careless. I haven’t been fulfilling my duties as a daughter. It seems that my mother has been ruthless. She lied to me and claimed that she had been taking good care of my father. My brother, Fang Shaohua, has been in jail for the past three years. You naturally couldn’t contact him.”

“Your mother is really cruel.” Zhang Jingting said ruefully.

Fang Xinxin’s nose felt sour. She felt the urge to cry once again.

This was not because of her mother’s cruel actions. Her heart was aching for her father’s suffering.

She swore to herself that she would take good care of him from now onwards!

After being offered ten times the rate, a care worker quickly arrived.

Fang Xinxin worked with her and Long Yifan was cleaned up. They shifted him onto a different bed and quickly pushed him into the operation theatre.

Fang Xinxin sat outside the operating theatre. Her heart was overwhelmed with worry.

Since young, her father had doted on her and loved her the most.

He often said she was his life!

Eleven years ago, her mother also loved her the most. However, gradually, she felt the change in her behaviour.

Whenever she brought this up to her father, he would reprimand her.

Her mother also started telling her that her father did not like her anymore. As a result, their father-daughter relationship gradually became distant.
