“But I’ve heard that spinal cord injury patients are very difficult to cure. Especially since Zhongwei is almost completely paralyzed, and the current hospital suggests the possibility of recovery is extremely slim. How are you so confident you can cure him?”
“The spinal cord belongs to the central nervous system and is the most fragile tissue in the human body. Once the spinal cord is damaged, recovery is indeed difficult, but it’s not absolute! Even with spinal cord injury causing communication interruption between the brain and peripheral nervous system, many nerve cells in the spine are still alive. As long as these nerve cells’ functionality isn’t lost and the damaged nerves can be reconnected, recovery, though difficult and complex, is not impossible.”
“Do you mean that even though Zhongwei is almost completely paralyzed, he can still be saved?”
“The patient has just been injured and is still in the golden rescue period. Moreover, based on my assessment, the patient’s nerve damage is incomplete, meaning there’s still a possibility of recovery. Giving up now would truly mean no hope!”
“That’s wonderful!” Ji Mengtang was so excited she almost jumped up, surprised he agreed to treat Zhongwei so quickly. “I’ll bring him over as soon as possible. Thank you for agreeing to treat him!”

“You should know that I have conditions for treating patients,” Kang Yansheng’s smile looked peaceful and friendly, but it made Ji Mengtang feel a chill throughout her body.
You don’t need to doubt your ears; you heard correctly. I indeed want you to be with me.” Kang Yansheng said it with utmost ease and naturalness, as if he had just asked her to help sweep the floor.
“Why?” Ji Mengtang was shocked, almost unable to speak. “You… like me?”
“No!” Kang Yansheng let out a low laugh. “You are indeed beautiful, but no woman in the world could make me resort to any means to possess her. I love no one – including myself!”
“Since you don’t like me, then why–“
