Chapter 652 Commoner
Superstar Gu Ze had just finished filming a tense and hectic scene, and exhausted, he finally got a moment's rest. He casually leaned back in a lounge chair and habitually picked up his phone, hoping to relax his tense nerves. However, as he was browsing various messages, he saw a message about various associations urgently seeking donor hearts and lungs, with President Mu's name written on it. Gu Ze's eyes widened instantly, his face full of disbelief, and he muttered to himself, "President Mu? What's going on? I haven't seen him for just a few days, and he's actually... critically ill?" His heart suddenly tightened, and a strong sense of unease surged in his heart.
Gu Ze was extremely anxious and frantically searched for Jiang Shuo's contact information on WeChat. Due to excessive excitement, his fingers seemed to be out of control, and the familiar operations became extremely difficult at this moment, as if he was blind and the more anxious he was, the harder it was to find. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, slid down his cheeks, and dripped onto the screen of his mobile phone. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and remembered Jiang Shuo's nickname "Buyi", and hurriedly entered it in the search bar. Finally, he found Jiang Shuo's profile picture and made a video call without hesitation.
At this moment, Jiang Shuo was on the phone with the school's principal, Lin. He spoke calmly and methodically, "Teacher Lin, I need to arrange for a little girl, Zhou Xue, to attend school. She has some eye problems, so please make arrangements. I'll return to school once my father recovers." Jiang Shuo's eyes were filled with determination and concern. Despite the immense pressure of his father's illness, he hadn't forgotten his promise to Xiaoxue.
Upon hearing this, Principal Lin Yue showed a kind smile on his face and responded happily: "Jiang Shuo, you can rest assured to take care of your family. Lin Yue can help you with anything you need. Just leave Xiaoxue's study at school to me, don't worry." Principal Lin was well aware of Jiang Shuo's current difficulties and was willing to do his best to help him.
Jiang Shuo nodded gratefully and said in a serious tone, "I will arrange for Grandma Mu to wait for the school bus at the bus stop in the morning. Thank you, Teacher Lin, for taking care of the school." He carefully arranged every detail, hoping to give Xiaoxue a stable learning environment.
"Okay, no problem." Lin Yue responded happily. Her voice was like the warm sunshine in spring, bringing a touch of warmth and comfort to Jiang Shuo.
As soon as the call was disconnected, the WeChat video ringtone rang. Jiang Shuo looked down and saw that it was the famous star Gu Ze. He quickly answered the call. Jiang Shuo's slightly tired but still polite face appeared on the screen. He said softly, "Hello, Uncle Gu Ze."
Gu Ze looked anxious and didn't even bother to say hello. He asked directly: "Jiang Shuo, I just saw the news that your father is critically ill. Is it true?" He stared at the screen, his eyes full of worry.
Jiang Shuo nodded gently and answered in a low voice, "Yes." It was just one word, but it seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, causing Gu Ze's heart to sink to the bottom in an instant.
Gu Ze became even more nervous and asked hurriedly, "Which hospital is President Mu in? I'll go see him." He wanted to fly to President Mu immediately to express his concern.
Jiang Shuo quickly waved his hand and said, "No need. He has found a donor heart and lungs. He is now at Cornell Medical Center in Los Angeles. The operation was successful. He just needs to go through the rejection period and then he will recover and stabilize." Jiang Shuo showed a relieved smile on his face and told Gu Ze the good news.
Upon hearing this, Gu Ze's face instantly lit up with joy, and he said excitedly, "That's great. I wish President Mu a speedy recovery. This must be the work of Professor Jiang Chengyu, right? His medical skills are renowned, so there must be no mistake." Gu Ze had heard of Jiang Chengyu's medical skills a long time ago, and knew that President Mu's hope of recovery would greatly increase under his treatment.
Jiang Shuo turned his head to look at his little dad Jiang Chengyu who was lying quietly in the big bed. He felt mixed emotions and did not respond to Gu Ze's words. He looked at Jiang Chengyu's peaceful sleeping face and thought of everything that had happened during this period. He felt both happy about the success of his father's operation and worried about the future rejection period. Jiang Chengyu had paid too much for his father's illness, and now he was tired and lay quietly on the bed to rest. Jiang Shuo knew that the days ahead would still be full of challenges, but he believed that as long as everyone worked together, his father would be able to overcome the difficulties smoothly and the family would be able to return to the peace and happiness of the past.
Gu Ze seemed to be aware of Jiang Shuo's emotions and comforted him softly: "Jiang Shuo, don't worry too much. Mr. Mu is a lucky man and will be safe. If you need any help, just tell your uncle." His voice was full of care and encouragement, hoping to give Jiang Shuo some strength.
Jiang Shuo turned his head, smiled gratefully at the screen, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Gu Ze. I feel much better with your concern. If you need me, I will definitely not be polite." Jiang Shuo knew that in this difficult time, the care and support of everyone around him were invaluable.
The two chatted for a while, and Gu Ze kept reminding Jiang Shuo to take good care of himself and not to get too tired. Jiang Shuo agreed one by one. After ending the video call, he looked at Jiang Chengyu again and secretly made up his mind to be with his family and accompany his father through this difficult journey and welcome a bright future.
