Wang Gang pulled Xie Meilan out of the ward and asked her about the details of the new treatment plan.

When Wang Gang learned that the so-called treatment plan was not developed by the hospital but by a laboratory of a medical university, he felt relieved.

"This kind of experimental medical program is basically using patients as guinea pigs. Your mother is already very weak, and if she continues to receive experimental drug treatment, she may not be able to hold on." Wang Gang advised earnestly:
"There are also such experiments, which are voluntary and self-funded. Patients have basically no benefit except wasting money. The final result is likely to be a loss of both money and life."

Xie Meilan said stubbornly: "You are not a medical student, what do you know? He is a professor at a regular university. He has seen my mother's case and thinks his treatment plan can help my mother."

Wang Gang frowned and said, "There are many professors nowadays who are just seeking fame and reputation, but few are truly talented. The person you are talking about has no reputation at all, and he is just relying on the title of a famous university to deceive people."

"You are the one who is swindling." Xie Meilan said angrily: "He was introduced by Mr. Lu, and he is much more reliable than you."

Wang Gang knew that Xie Meilan had become obsessed with saving her mother, but he still didn't want Xie's mother to waste only a few months of her life because of an experiment.

"I don't recommend your mother to get treatment. It's too risky."

"I don't need your advice. I have already decided that I will save my mother even if it means selling everything I have." Xie Meilan said with a straight face:
"Don't worry! I won't use your money. I'll use the money to treat my mother's illness after she sells her old house."

"This is not about money." Wang Gang said helplessly: "If there is a cure, I will borrow money to treat it, but now this kind of experimental treatment is too risky. Why don't you understand?"

Xie Meilan insisted: "I will bear the risk myself, you don't have to worry about it."

Wang Gang stopped Xie Meilan who wanted to leave and said, "Calm down. What mom wants now is not treatment but companionship. Your presence by her side is more important than anything else. Why don't you understand?"

"Let go." Xie Meilan shook off Wang Gang's hand and said angrily: "In the end, you just care about the money. She is not your mother, so of course you should be calm!"

"You." Wang Gang felt tired when he saw Xie Meilan who couldn't tell good from bad.

Xie Meilan ignored Wang Gang, turned into the ward and continued to persuade her mother to receive treatment.

After Wang Gang entered the room, Xie's mother asked for his opinion.

"Shen Lei, do you think I should receive treatment?" Xie's mother's eyes were full of confusion.

Wang Gang sighed and said, "Mom, if you ask me for my opinion, I definitely don't want you to suffer. That kind of experimental treatment plan may not only fail to cure you, but also over-consume your life."

"Shen Lei, what nonsense are you talking about!" Xie Meilan screamed.

"I'm telling the truth." Wang Gang said without giving in.

Xie Meilan immediately got furious and started cursing at Wang Gang, saying that he was cold-blooded and did not help the man in need. In short, she cursed him in all the harsh ways possible.

Wang Gang didn't tolerate Xie Meilan either, and the two of them had a huge argument in the ward.

"Stop arguing." Xie's mother couldn't stand it anymore and shouted with her remaining strength: "Isn't it okay for me to accept treatment?"

Mother Xie didn't want to cause a breakup in the relationship between her daughter and son-in-law because of herself, but she didn't know that the relationship between her daughter and son-in-law had already been broken.

In the end, Xie's mother accepted the new treatment plan and started taking experimental drugs after being examined by the professor.

After the first month of taking the medicine, Xie's mother's health did show obvious signs of improvement, and her complexion became much better. Xie Meilan thought she saw hope.

However, Wang Gang knew that not only had Xie's mother not recovered, the experimental drug was still consuming her limited vitality, and now it was just a last gasp.

He advised Xie Meilan many times to ask her mother to stop taking the medicine, but Xie Meilan was already crazy and ignored him.

Wang Gang wanted to prolong Xie's mother's life in his own way, and usually used Chinese medicine to keep her alive. But when Xie Meilan found out, she threw away the medicine and blamed Wang Gang for giving her mother medicine. Xie's mother was getting weaker day by day, and Wang Gang knew that there was no way to save her. He could only accompany her more in the limited time to alleviate her fear of death.

After three months of treatment, Xie's mother finally succumbed. Only Wang Gang stayed by her side before she died. Xie Meilan thought her mother had improved, so she went on a business trip without worry and could not make it back in time.

In front of the bed, Xie's mother weakly raised her hand, and Wang Gang quickly held it.

"Mom, do you have anything to say?"

Wang Gang felt that Xie's mother's vitality was like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

"Mei, Meilan." Xie's mother called her daughter's name weakly.

Wang Gang said: "I have informed Meilan that she is on her way back."

Xie Meilan is on the plane now, and Wang Gang can't even make a video call to her.

"I can't do it anymore. Meilan will be left in your care from now on." Xie's mother said weakly.

"Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Meilan." Wang Gang sighed.

Mother Xie looked at the door of the ward again, hoping to see her daughter, but in the end she left with regret.

Two hours later, Xie Meilan rushed to the hospital. When she saw Wang Gang standing at the door, she was stunned.

"I, where's my mom?"

Wang Gang said regretfully: "Mom is gone. Go in and see her for the last time! The crematorium staff will be here soon to take the body away."

"Mom." Xie Meilan wailed loudly and stumbled into the ward. Seeing her motionless mother, she fell to her knees.

Wang Gang stood outside the door and heard the screaming and crying inside. He shook his head and went to find a doctor to get a death certificate and deal with Xie's mother's funeral.

When Shen Lin and Na Wei received a call from Wang Gang, they didn't even have time to sleep. They left their two children in the care of a nanny and rushed to the hospital to help.

Wang Gang contacted the funeral service company early in the morning and had someone come to handle the funeral arrangements. However, Xie Meilan held her mother's body tightly and refused to let the people at the crematorium take it away.

"Mom, open your eyes and look at me again. I can't live without you." Xie Meilan lay on her mother's body, crying hoarsely.

After the people at the crematorium communicated with Wang Gang, he had to pick up Xie Meilan and let someone take Xie's mother away.

"Mom, Mom." Xie Meilan screamed wildly and punched Wang Gang with her backhand.

"Why did you let them take my mom away?"

Wang Gang shouted, "Have you had enough of making trouble? Do you still want me to leave without peace of mind?"

Xie Meilan was shocked all over and could no longer make a fuss. Her body went limp as if she had no bones and she kept crying.

Looking at the painful Xie Meilan, Wang Gang knew that Xie Meilan would always regret not being able to see her mother for the last time after her death.

Wang Gang could understand, but he didn't feel sorry.

It is hard to persuade a damned ghost with kind words. Some people do not deserve sympathy. (End of this chapter)
