Chapter 901: Benefiting from My Father's Favor
Huang Xiaochuan had just put his phone away when he saw a large group of people coming down the corridor. The first one was Zhou Zhou, the hospital's executive vice president.
Those following him to his left and right and behind him were clearly leaders from relevant departments of the hospital.
Zhou Zhou spotted Huang Xiaochuan standing in the corridor at a glance and quickly walked over.
"Professor Huang, we really didn't expect that Mr. Yu would be injured unexpectedly. We knew that it would be a short time before we arrived."
Huang Xiaochuan and Zhou Zhou knew each other and were quite close, because Zhou Zhou was Yu Xiang's fellow disciple.
Since they had come all this way to offer their condolences and visit, Huang Xiaochuan naturally had to treat them with courtesy. He first clasped his hands together in prayer, and then shook hands with each of them, saying, "Dean Zhou, everyone, thank you all!"
Zhou Zhou quickly replied, "Isn't that what we should do? After all, Ruijin is also Yu Xiang's hometown, and this old man is our family. We will definitely ensure that the old man receives the best possible treatment and rehabilitation."
At this moment, the head of the medical department standing to the side said, "We have already reviewed Mr. Yu's scans and organized a consultation with an expert group. Director Shi's plan is very sound, and he is the most suitable person to perform the surgery. In addition, we will arrange the most experienced team to take care of the postoperative rehabilitation."
The head of orthopedics nodded in agreement: "We all know Dr. Shi's expertise; we can rest assured."
Huang Xiaochuan readily accepted everyone's goodwill: "Of course, otherwise my Yu Xiang wouldn't have sent my father-in-law here so quickly. After all, she knows the standards here better than I do!"
"Haha! That's the right thing to do, junior sister." Zhou Zhou laughed, then asked, "Professor Huang, do you think the ward needs to be changed to a better environment?"
Huang Xiaochuan waved his hand: "This is fine as it is, no need to change." Huang Xiaochuan knew that the other party was just being polite. His father-in-law was already staying in a special ward. If the environment were any better, would it be like he was renting out an entire floor by himself? There was no need for that.
After exchanging pleasantries with Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Xiang for a while, Zhou Zhou and the others politely took their leave.
Shortly after Zhou Zhou and his men left, the matter assigned to Gao Song began to show promise.
Gao Song came over and reported in a low voice: "Mr. Huang! The meteorological bureau has confirmed that this heavy snowfall is expected to gradually stop by tomorrow morning. Tomorrow will be cloudy turning sunny during the day, but a new wave of cold air will arrive the day after tomorrow morning, so we only have one day left. We've also contacted General Aviation Company. They have a Bell medium-sized helicopter in top condition, and the crew members are very experienced. They can carry out this pick-up and drop-off mission, flying from Shanghai to the take-off and landing point near Qingjiang Middle School. The one-way trip takes about one hour and forty minutes, and the total round trip time will not exceed four hours. They have already applied for expedited processing of the route. As long as it is approved and the weather permits tomorrow, we can take off."
"Good!" Huang Xiaochuan nodded in satisfaction, then added, "Personally oversee the route approval process to ensure everything goes smoothly."
"Understood!" Gao Song accepted the order.
He then told his parents-in-law and Yu Xiang about his arrangements.
Yu Xiang was fine and didn't find it surprising, but Lao Yu and Zheng Aiying were startled.
"Should we use a helicopter to pick up Yu Min and Zhiyuan?"
Huang Xiaochuan explained to them, "If Yu Min knew about this situation, she would definitely be worried. I've asked around, and this plan is feasible and safe. So don't worry about it. We can bring her family here and have a happy reunion for the New Year."
Hearing that their eldest son-in-law had made such a thorough arrangement and that he was capable of doing so, the elderly couple naturally had nothing to say. Moreover, during the Spring Festival, which elderly person doesn't hope that their children will be around them? Old Yu and Zheng Aiying were no exception.
Seeing that the elderly couple had agreed, Huang Xiaochuan then made a call to Yu Min.
As soon as the call connected, Yu Min spoke first: "Brother-in-law! I was just about to call you. It looks like the snow is too heavy. The news also said there are a lot of accidents and traffic jams on the highways. I'm thinking of not going to Shanghai for the New Year."
"Yu Min, listen to me first, but don't worry. Dad slipped and fell this afternoon, fracturing his left forearm and fracturing his left pelvis. He's in Ruijin now and will have a minor surgery tomorrow morning."
"What?" Yu Min's voice immediately rose, then she asked anxiously, "How serious is it? Where's my mother? What did the doctor say? Why does the surgery have to be tomorrow morning?"
Before Huang Xiaochuan could speak, Yu Xiang took the phone: "Alright, we're here. Don't panic. When you get to the hospital, you'll have to follow the doctor's instructions. Get ready. Your brother-in-law will arrange for someone to pick you up tomorrow."
"Pick us up? Forget it! Yue Zhiyuan and I will pack up tonight and leave early tomorrow morning. Even if there's a traffic jam, we should be able to get there by tonight, right?" Yu Min directly rejected the suggestion.
"Your brother-in-law is sending a helicopter to pick you up. You should contact the nearby primary school as soon as possible and ask to use their playground so the helicopter can land."
"Huh?" Yu Min thought there was something wrong with her ears and that she had misheard.
Yu Xiang reiterated, "Your brother-in-law is already arranging a helicopter. As long as the weather permits tomorrow, he will come to pick you up. It will be safer and faster that way. He said it will take less than two hours."
Yu Min understood clearly this time. After a few seconds of silence, she realized that only her brother-in-law, who was the richest man in the country, could pull off such a feat. And to be honest, this method was quite good. She never thought she would get to ride in a helicopter once in her life!
After realizing what had happened, she quickly expressed her gratitude over the phone: "Thank you! Brother-in-law! Zhiyuan and I will wait for your notification. I'll go contact the elementary school playground now."
Yu Xiang then gave her younger sister a few more instructions: "Don't worry about Dad, I'm here and Yu Wei is here. Take good care of Xiao Yong. Don't turn off your phone and Zhiyuan's phone, just wait for your brother-in-law's call."
"Okay, I understand!" The two then ended the call.
The call was made in front of Lao Yu and Zheng Aiying, so they heard everything clearly. Zheng Aiying, in particular, exclaimed, "Xiao Chuan is so thoughtful! He even came up with this kind of solution."
Old Yu, now that the medicine had stopped the pain, was in good spirits: "A helicopter! I only saw one back when I was in the army, but I never had the chance to ride in one. I never thought Yu Min would get to ride in a helicopter this time because of me."
Zheng Aiying glared angrily at the disobedient old man: "Shut up! You wait, I'll settle this score with you slowly."
Yu Xiang and Huang Xiaochuan didn't interfere in the affairs between the elderly couple; they let them be.
