Redeeming The Golden Ticket To Life

While I was busy calculating the cost price of all the medical set-up…

[Tring Tring… Tring Tring]

A phone rang. 

"Excuse me" Bai Chang moved to a corner to answer the call.

She frowned as she continued to talk. 

'Is something serious?'

My heart quickened its pace. 'What happened?' 

I looked towards Qiang and Zhang Wei, while Qiang had a confused look in his eyes, Zhang Wei looked slightly agitated.

She quickly disconnected and regrouped with us.

"Mother, would you like to be my Doctor in Charge to witness the live medical process."

Before I could answer she turned to Zhang Wei, "Go outside and escort the squad here it's 'code blue'," she ordered him.

It sure seemed a little mysterious, but both the old man and my son suddenly looked sharp. 

I moved towards that old man's side and asked, "What are you aware of that I am not?"

"Let us observe, I will fill you in the details later." 

He tried to avoid my eyes. I swear, they will be the death for my daughter.

"If something happens to her this time, you can rest assured to see that long due divorce paper on your study table next day and get ready to talk to my lawyers." I hissed softly so that only the old man could hear it.

Sure enough, he paled as he listened to me. He looked towards me to ascertain my claim.

What he saw was pure fury. 

But before he could say anything Bai Chang intercepted-

"Father, I ask you to walk towards the observation room as we will require the operation theatre (OT) immediately, I need to put it to immediate sterilisation."

We all moved out of the OT.

She started to push some buttons and the room underwent chemical sterilization. But the thing is, it was too fast. All happened within a few minutes.

"Move aside please," Zhang Wei hollered. 

Four men were carrying a wounded man on their shoulders, he was covered in red blood. There was too much blood. They dripped off the soldier's body as if like a faucet left open. 

Against the white tiles, the dark red blood looked starking. The trail of blood on the white tiled floor looked like the harbinger of death and dark omen to me.

While I saw Bai Chang get changed into a surgical garb so fast, my eyes couldn't follow. They looked like practising moves.

I washed and put on the spare surgical garb, the Doctor within me is duty-bound to save that soldier irrespective of his story. 

As I moved inside the OT, I was once again blown by Bai Chang's efficiency. 

She had already got rid of the soldier's uniform and cleaned the wounds as well as she already had the preliminary diagnosis settled. 

It took her only five minutes to get it all squared off. That's the efficiency rate of a Doctor at any emergency ward with a minimum of ten years of experience.

"Where did she learn all this from?" I asked myself.

The patient on the bed had Gun-shot wounds and deep knife tissue trauma with severe haemorrhage. There were Visceral wounds of the stomach or intestines large enough to

permit extravasation and the escape of hydrogen gas on applying the diagnostic test.

This is going to be a fight against time and the Grim Reaper.

As I moved towards the table to assist, I saw there was already a mechanical artificial intelligence operated super Robo working with her. 

She was already deep in focus and already started to take steps.

She simply made an incision down the median and started to explore the blood vessels slowly but swiftly. 

There was the loss of blood and the patient needed a blood transfusion.

She adjusted the oxygen and carbon dioxide levels and then attached blood bags. 

As I look closely towards the bags, I see a golden sheen in the blood. I was horrified, as the blood within was definitely the rarest in the blood, the 'Golden Blood'. She is using her own blood to give the patient a life-saving transfusion. As the 'Golden Blood is universal donor blood with zero rejection rate. 

The more I observed her skills the more I was stupefied. Those are the skills of a trained doctor. 

'When did she learn all this?'

I simply stood by and witnessed a medical miracle. 

****

After half an hour the damage control surgery (DCS) was over and the patient's condition was stabilised. I gave a complete check-up to the patient, just in case to leave no gaps and I found the entire medical process hundred per cent efficient and effective,

My heart warmed as I felt so proud of my daughter.

[POV Zhang Wei]

As Bai Chang wrapped up the first immediate operation, I was convinced that from now on, we never have to go to a hospital as we had a medical prodigy right in front of us. I also understood her unwillingness to visit a hospital.

Simply put, they were not efficient enough to satisfy her demands. After touring through the medical set-up she put together for herself and the efficiency with which she operated, it is impossible to find another Doctor with such high clinical efficiency.

After treating 'Beta' we walked into her study room, me and the squad. While the Hu family was asked to sit and relax downstairs with Xiao Wei.

"Report," She said curtly.

Alpha moved out of the line, standing straight-

"Reporting," He said in a deep voice, "at 19:00 hours after the bidding contest we followed Feling to his base. There we established a recon team and on-site surveillance. We flagged two people who he came across in the last few days. Alpha tracked 'target 1' and Beta tracked 'target 2'; Alpha lost target 1 at 14:00 hours today while Beta got compromised and hence the casualty."

"Do you have your recordings?" she asked.

"Yes ma'am. Here," he swiftly placed a flash drive on the table.

"Anything else?"

"No ma'am"

"At ease, follow Charlie and rest here on the property. Wait outside"

The squad straightened and left the room.

I simply stare at the girl sitting opposite me.

Her eyes fixed on the flash drive. 

"What next?" I asked her.

She was still staring down at the flash drive, she took a deep breath and replied, "Retribution"

I raised my eyebrows as I heard the conviction behind her response.

"How to?"

"First settle the squad here for a week on the property for rest next, let me see," she replied.

I moved out of the room and took the squad with me to settle down. I take from another path to avoid the Hu family. As for the time being, I guess we have to keep them at arm's length. 

While Bai Chang is friendly with them because of Xiao Wei but I always get the feeling that keeps the Hu Family out of her loop.

She deliberately avoids them.

The reason defies my knowledge but my instincts tell me, she knows something that others don't. 

****

[POV Qiang]

"Did you know that she was a Doctor?" 

"Did you know she was a surgeon?"

"When did she start learning?"

"How did she build a full-scale private hospital here on the property?"

My mother blasted me one question after another.

I grimaced.

To all those questions, I can only keep it quiet,

"Why are you keeping mum? Are you a mute? What is going on here?"

"Would you keep your cool," my father interjected.

"Old man, if there is any harm to my daughter, you and your son will bear severe consequences, I warn you!" she huffed and puffed in anger. Her face flushed.

"Mother, keep it down," I advised her. After all, this is Bai Chang's place and her amnesia already makes it difficult for her to put her trust in us.

"Why?" she almost lost it, while anger claimed her senses.

"Don't make a scene here, we will talk at home," my dad tried to calm my mother while he turned towards me and said, "you are finished this time."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you messed up her trust by forcing her. You have to understand that she is no more your yes wife. She is a far more competent person than you and she has a much better and solid brain on her shoulder than yours."

"Then, how do you explain today's event?"

"Simple, she keeps her side of work clear from you and you and your company are no more than a shield to confuse others."

"What gave you that impression?" I asked my father, while my fingers clenched in a fist.

"Because she has her own security team and her own missions. She doesn't trust you enough to use your people. To her you are an unstable variable, whom she won't even trust her back," my father elucidated.

Though jarring the facts ran true.

I just lost my wife's confidence in me after the mayhem that I caused.
