Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
The reporters continued to record down what was going on.
The doctor stood beside them and said, “This child’s illness is really complicated. However, it can still be cured. He just needs constant treatment. I can only tell you his current state after seeing the latest treatment report.”
“How much will it cost to treat him?” The reporters asked.
The doctor continued, “It’s difficult to say. According to this boy’s illness, age and treatment plan, if it goes smoothly, it would take about $200,000. If it turns out to be more serious, it might need $500,000. If it reaches a critical stage, it might even cost $1 million. Furthermore, patients with leukemia have poor immune systems and if he gets an infection, he would have to undergo treatment again.”
“How much has his family spent?”
The doctor said, “They have spent nearly $150,000. However, he only underwent one treatment. There’s still a long way to go. He could spend up to $100,000 in a day in the future.”
Only a well to do family would be able to afford such expensive medical fees.
It cost $100,000 a day. Furthermore, leukemia wasn’t like contracting a cold. It would take more than a few days to recover. The amount of time needed was difficult to determine.
Yang Bin held Yang Yuan’s hand worriedly, “How could you come here alone? Aren’t you going to school anymore?”
The reporters took a lot of pictures of Yang Yuan. They were really moved by what he had done for his brother. He had actually hid in a bus compartment just to visit his brother. It was really a dangerous act.
“Dad, I can cure my brother,” Yang Yuan said.
Yang Huan nodded. “Brother, I feel revitalized after seeing you. I will recover soon.”
Yang Bin touched Yang Yuan’s head. “Be good, your brother will recover soon. I will send you back home tomorrow and you have to continue studying, okay?”
The doctor came to Yang Yuan and said, “Little boy, you have to be obedient. Your brother will recover in no time.”
Of course, they were just trying to console him. How could they not know the complications of his brother’s illness?
Although it could be treated, the amount of time and money required was unimaginable.
“No, I really can heal my brother. I have this.” Yang Yuan immediately unzipped his pocket and took out a small bottle. Then, he poured out the thing that was in it.
A circular medicinal pill appeared on his palm. “As long as my brother eats this, he will recover.”
The doctor laughed after hearing that. How could it be? However, he didn’t want to crush the hopes of this young boy after seeing his determined expression.
“What is this?” The doctor asked.
Yang Yuan wanted to tell him the truth about the deity uncle. However, he thought of his promise to him and didn’t tell the doctor about it.
Then, he kept his mouth shut and didn’t know what to say.
Yang Bin sighed. “Alright, be good. Don’t cause any trouble.”
The reporters pointed their cameras at Yang Yuan and captured his determined expression which clearly showed how eager he was for his brother to recover.
It was a belief. An undying belief.
Yang Huan looked at the round thing in his brother’s hand and shouted, “Brother, I’ll eat it. I want to recover!”
Yang Yuan went over. “Eat it and you’ll recover!”
“Stop playing,” Yang Bin said as he grabbed his son’s hand. “Be good. Your brother is sick and he can’t eat random things.”
“Dad, mum…” Yang Yuan looked at his parents and cried, “If he eats this, he will definitely recover. It’s true.”
The doctor that was standing beside them said, “Let him eat it then. It’s his hope of healing his brother. We shouldn’t crush his hopes. Furthermore, he wouldn’t feed him anything poisonous, right?”
The doctor thought that it was a snack and eating it wouldn’t be much of a problem.
Yang Bin looked at the doctor. “Are you sure it won’t affect anything?”
“Yes,” the doctor replied.
Then, Yang Bin let go of Yang Yuan’s hand. “Alright, let your brother eat it then.”
Yang Yuan was ecstatic. He placed the medicinal pill in his brother’s mouth. “Brother, quickly eat it. You’ll recover!”
“Okay!” Yang Huan nodded and ate the pill. “Brother, it’s so sweet and fragrant.”
“Of course. This is…” Yang Yuan was joyous. However, he couldn’t say what it was. “Brother, this is a really good thing. It was difficult for me to get it. When you’ve recovered, you have to listen to my words. You can’t fool with me.”
“Okay!” Yang Huan nodded firmly and swallowed the pill.
Yang Yuan then leaned in and stared at him intently. He looked like he really believed that his brother would recover.
…
The doctor sighed in sadness. Perhaps this little fella was going to be disappointed soon.
The reporters also reacted similarly.
“This boy really cares for his own little brother.”
“Yeah, how can this happen? Perhaps we shouldn’t have let his little brother eat the candy. At least it gave his older brother some hope.”
“Sigh, their brotherly love is so heartwarming. But illness is never kind.”
“Let’s take a picture of this and post it online. Hopefully, it will capture the attention of some kind-hearted people to donate some money to save this boy.”
Yang Bin said, “Alright, your brother has eaten it. Let him rest.”
Yang Yuan said, “Okay, I know. I’m waiting here to watch him recover.”
Yang Bin didn’t know what to say and tears started to well up in his eyes.
The doctor patted Yang Yuan on his head. “Be good. The hope of recovery has been planted in your brother. We have to continue ‘watering’ it. Don’t worry. He will be fine.”
“Yes.” Yang Yuan really trusted the deity uncle. He believed that he will definitely succeed and heal his brother.
Suddenly!
“Brother, my body feels very hot.” Suddenly, Yang Huan’s face started to change.
His pale face started to become flush.
“What’s happening?” The doctor was stunned after looking at what was happening. He saw that this boy’s face was starting to look better.
When he grabbed onto Yang Huan’s arm, it felt a little damp.
The reporters were at a loss. They didn’t know what was happening.
Only Yang Yuan started to jump in joy. “It’s happening, it’s happening! Brother, you’re going to recover!”
Yang Huan’s pores started to contract and expand repeatedly. Whenever they expanded, a drop of clear liquid appeared. It looked as if his body was expelling something.
Yang Bin wanted to scold his son for giving Yang Huan the pill. However, something extraordinary happened.
“Look!” A reporter shouted and pointed at Yang Huan’s bald head.
Something unthinkable was happening to his head.
