Arriving at the dean's office, Ye Jianan and Lie both felt extremely heavy-hearted.

Liefeng patted her shoulder and said, "God has given you a heart that sympathizes with the sufferings of the world, but he has not given you the ability to save the people. Look at it in a positive way, everyone has their own destiny."

The dean poured a glass of water for each of them and said, "Boss Ye, after your first round of funding came in, our hospital responded positively."

Ye Jianan took the water and said, "I want the hospital to use the first batch of funds to hire more caregivers and nurses."

Dean Zhou nodded and said, "That's what we were thinking. The biggest shortage in the hospital right now is nursing staff. With your help, I believe the situation will improve greatly."

Ye Jianan thought for a moment and said to Liefeng, "Our strength is really too weak. Is there any way to mobilize more social forces to participate? At least, let those who are leaving leave in a more decent manner."

Liefeng always supports what she wants to do, "Okay, I'll find a way."

Ye Jianan responded and turned to look at Dean Zhou. "I will use the next batch of funds on the patients' daily medicines. I need you to have someone compile a basic report of the patients for me. Our company is also currently developing a drug to reduce the pain of patients. I hope that after the research is successful, it will be able to help them."

The dean shook her hand with gratitude and said, "Thank you for your help, President Ye. I thank you on behalf of everyone in our hospital."

Ye Jianan responded politely, and then said, "Actually, I came here today because I have one more thing to ask Dean Zhou."

"You say."

Ye Jianan handed him a list and said, "Take a look at the names on the list. Are there any familiar names?"

Dean Zhou took it, glanced at it for a moment, and looked up at her: "I don't know the others, but there are two names here that I am very familiar with. They were my colleagues at the Xiaoshan Experimental Base. I wonder what Mr. Ye wants to see them about?"

Ye Jianan's face lit up, "Then do you know Ye Tan? She also stayed at the Xiaoshan Experimental Base for a period of time."

Dean Zhou shook his head and said, "I don't know them. I only worked with the two people on the list for two years. After that, I withdrew from the institute because I made a small mistake. With the support of the government, I opened this hospital."

Hearing this, the joy that had just appeared on Ye Jianan's face dimmed instantly. After pondering for a moment, she asked, "Do you still remember these two? What happened to them that they were sent to you?"

The dean recalled: "In fact, I don't know the details very well. I only know that they were both sent to me because of poisoning. The drugs that were studied in the laboratory were confidential. The hospital's treatment was ineffective, and there was no family to take care of them. When they were sent to me, they were in a semi-comatose state. They have been staying here for more than ten years. They have dedicated their lives to scientific research. They have no children and are only kept alive by grants from above."

"So what's their current situation? Is it getting better?"

"One of them is in a vegetative state, and the other is in a better condition."

"Dean, can you take me to see him? I want to ask about what happened to my mother back then."

Director Zhou took her to the independent ward on the top floor of the hospital, where some key personnel were admitted.

Compared with other ordinary wards, the environment here is much better.

The dean pointed to a bed in one of the rooms and said, "This is the colleague who has become a vegetable. He has been lying in bed for ten years. We use some basic drugs to keep him alive. We don't know when he will wake up, and we don't know if he will ever wake up."

Ye Jianan looked at the person lying motionless on the hospital bed with a frown on his face.

Due to being bedridden for many years, his muscles have atrophied severely and his face has become extremely sunken. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as skin and bones.

Ye Jianan wondered: "Doesn't he have any other relatives?"

"Alas," the dean sighed, "his parents passed away a long time ago, and his other relatives are all out of town. But then again, in a situation like this, how many relatives are willing to take care of him unconditionally and without asking for anything in return?"

Ye Jianan felt as if his heart was being tightened by a rope and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

In her vague memory, she seemed to still remember his voice, appearance and smile from those years, but she didn't expect that fate would play such a trick on her, and when they met again, he would look like this.

My heart is full of emotions.

Liefeng tried to comfort her, but when the words came to his lips, he stopped himself.

Never mind, in this vast world, everyone has his or her own destiny.

Afterwards, the dean took her to see another person. This person's condition was not much better than the previous one. Apart from being able to open his eyes and see people, the whole person was lying there unable to move.

He was pale and thin, with bony features.

The whole eye is dull and lifeless.

When a few people went in, the nurse was injecting food into his nasal cavity with a syringe.

Liefeng frowned deeply, "Actually, there is something that is not appropriate to say, but I can't help but say it."

After a few seconds of pause, he said, "He's in this state, so it's better to let him go as soon as possible."

After all, the sooner you die, the sooner you will be liberated. Buddhists often talk about three reincarnations. Maybe there is really an afterlife, where you can start all over again. It is much better than lying helplessly on a hospital bed with your last breath, waiting for God to help you press the stop button.

The dean sighed again, "Everyone understands the truth, but if I really watch him die without helping him, my job won't allow me to do that. Everyone knows that his condition will only get worse, but if I watch him take his last breath in front of me and do nothing, I'm afraid I will be condemned by my conscience for the rest of my life."

Liefeng nodded. This was probably the problem that troubled many people.

I know that my relatives with advanced cancer will lose everything after all the treatment, but I just can't give up the last glimmer of hope.

In the end, he suffered a lot and even owed a lot of debts for medical treatment. Seeing this situation, Ye Jianan was discouraged and looked worried.

But as a few people approached, something magical happened.

After seeing Ye Jianan, the patient's dull eyes actually showed a glimmer of light.

Seeing this, Ye Jianan and Liefeng looked at each other.

Ye Jianan hurriedly walked up to him, stared into his eyes, and said, "Uncle Wu Qin, do you remember me? I am Ye Tan's daughter, Ye Jianan. You held me in your arms when I was a child."

Wu Qin's eyes moved again, as if he wanted to express something consciously, but after trying for a long time, except for his eyeballs that could move, the rest of his body was completely out of control by his brain.

Seeing him like this, Ye Jianan felt both distressed and a little discouraged.

Wu Qin's eyes moved again, and Lie Feng said suspiciously: "He seems to have recognized you. But what is he saying?"

The three of them fell silent at the same time.
