Chapter 406: A problem arises

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Whenever something happens, reporters are always the first to reach the place.

Wang Li Li’s case already had a Baike page on the Internet and a number of media agencies had reported about her but later on, there had been no interesting news for them to report throughout the treatment. They just gave updates on her situation every once in a while to let the netizens know how she was doing.

Now that the specialist group was here, there were reporters drawn to the hospital as well. When the specialist group had reached the hospital, reporters were already there.

The hospital hadn’t expected the reporters to arrive so quickly.

Outside the sick ward, reporters surrounded Director Zhang.

“Director Zhang, now that the specialist group is here, do they have a plan to suppress the illness?”

“According to our knowledge, the specialist group of the Anorexia Research Centre is one of our country’s main driving forces of anorexia research. Are they confident of completing the treatment?”

“Director Zhang, could you answer our questions please?”

The reporters kept asking questions, one after another. They were very concerned about this matter.

In front of all these reporters, Director Zhang was helpless. There were times when reporters were annoying but there were also times when these reporters had to be thanked.

For example, in Wang Li Li’s case, if it wasn’t for their reporting, it wouldn’t have drawn all this attention and there wouldn’t have been any donations.

However, there were times when reporters came over in large crowds, affecting the treatment of the patients. This was like a double-edged sword. The reporters had the power to save people and also to kill people.

Director Zhang said, “Everyone, please quieten down. The people from the specialist group are now checking on the patient’s condition. If there’s anything you want to know, you may wait for the specialist group to come out, then, you can ask them.

He didn’t dare to say too much or guarantee that she would be treated back to health. He didn’t dare to say anything at all. Who knew how his words would be reported by the reporters? If things get out of hand, the consequences would be severe.

At that moment.

Specialist Chang opened the door and said, “The porridge that I asked for, why is it not here yet?”

But when he saw the reporters outside, Specialist Chang’s expression changed. He let out a grin. It was as if he wanted to show a fatherly behavior towards the patient in front of the reporters.

“This is Specialist Chang from the specialist group,” Director Zhang introduced.

The reporters all went forward, “Specialist Chang, how is the patient’s condition? You’re a specialist from the Haicheng Anorexia Research Centre. Do you have any methods to tackle this illness?”

“Wang Li Li is considered a severe sufferer of anorexia. The hospital has said that if the treatment isn’t effective, she may only have a month left to live.”

“Specialist Chang, please say a few words.”

Specialist Chang faced the reporters with a smile. “My dear reporters, I cannot answer these questions at the moment but you don’t have to worry. Wang Li Li’s condition isn’t the worst that we have seen. The staff of the specialist group is very experienced. We will definitely have methods to treat this illness. Although we may not be able to cure the illness, suppressing its further development isn’t a problem.”

Lin Fan just stood at the side, watching Specialist Chang put on a show. He acknowledged what Specialist Chang said. These people were specialists after all. Even if they may not be able to cure Wang Li Li, suppressing the illness shouldn’t be a problem.

Moreover, Wang Li Li’s case had drawn the attention of the Internet. If these specialists could suppress the illness or even successfully cure it, it would be great for them.

Hence, they had to produce results no matter what.

A reporter said, “Hello, Specialist Chang. May I know what are the results of your tests?”

Specialist Chang replied, “I’m sorry, my dear reporter. I cannot comment on that. However, we’ve already deduced that everything is still normal. Right now, we need to feed the patient with some porridge to see her reaction towards light foods.”

The reporters didn’t understand what he meant but they felt that they would be able to gain some useful news from this.

Lin Fan raised his head and looked over. “Specialist Chang, in her current state, the patient really can’t consume food like porridge. Her stomach won’t be able to take it.”

Specialist Chang took a glance at Lin Fan, then ignored him completely. After that, he said a few words to the reporters and returned to the sick ward. Soon after, a nurse went in carrying a bowl of porridge.
