Chapter 14 I Remember the Sad Things

"Twine breaks at its thinnest, misfortune seeks out the hardest lives, sigh."

"I had noticed before that Wu Bin's smile was bright, but it always seemed to carry some sadness, and now it seems my feeling was right."

"Poor kid, I'm not able to help you much, all I can do is to like and share your story, [praying hands]."

"Even though my own life isn't going well, not at all, I still can't bear to see the suffering of others."

"I thought I was miserable enough, but it turns out he's had it even worse. Hang in there, brother, everything will get better!"

As Wu Bin watched these comments in the live-streaming chat, he became even more bewildered.

That's not it.

How have I suddenly become a tragic hero in an instant?

Everyone, don't be so pessimistic, I haven't cried, so why are you crying?

He Bingbing held the microphone, struggling to keep her sad emotions in check as she interviewed Xu Wenyao, her voice tinged with a cry throughout.

Even the cameraman secretly wiped away tears several times.

Xu Wenyao said with a firm look in his eyes:

"In light of Wu Bin's special circumstances, our school has applied to the Ministry of Education for special hardship educational assistance funds."

"Please rest assured, Wu Bin, and all the kind online friends, even if we cannot secure the funds from the Ministry of Education, our school will dig into our own pockets to provide a subsidy for Wu Bin."

Upon hearing Xu Wenyao's words, the live-stream chat immediately filled with blessings for a peaceful life for the good people.

"This principal is a good person, and Agricultural University is also a great school!"

"I have been watching this live stream from the start. The principal is indeed a good man, he turned grey worrying about Wu Bin's affairs."

"It's so hard to find such a responsible principal nowadays. Does anyone know his name? I want to write a letter of commendation to the Ministry of Education."

"His name is Xu Wenyao; you can find his personal information on Baidu."

As Xu Wenyao read the comments praising him, his lips quivered harder to suppress than an AK.

Good, his objective was achieved.

With so many online friends shielding him with their comments, even if the Ministry of Education sent someone to hold him accountable, it wouldn't be his problem anymore.

Xu Wenyao patted Wu Bin's hand and showed a caring smile.

"Wu Bin, life may have many hardships, but after the hardship comes sunshine."

"You focus on your recovery; Agricultural University will always be your strongest support!"

Wu Bin managed a strained smile, indicating he understood.

This guy, way too scheming!

After sending away Xu Wenyao and Yang Kang, the inherently emotional He Bingbing began to cry even harder.

She looked at Wu Bin with the same eyes one might give a pitiful stray dog on the roadside; even though I knew she meant well, it really wasn't necessary, big sister.

It was so over-the-top that when the nurse came in to change the IV bottle, she heard He Bingbing's crying from outside the door and thought something had happened to Wu Bin again, nearly bursting into a sharp scream.

Having He Bingbing go out to calm herself down, Wu Bin hadn't even had time to catch his breath when Li Guotai came in with several doctors.

"Wu Bin, how do you feel?"

"Chest tightness," Wu Bin replied.

"Chest tightness?" Li Guotai paused, "That shouldn't be. The poison in your body should have been completely cleared out."

Wu Bin sighed.

"It's nothing, I just recalled something upsetting just now, so I felt some chest tightness."

The online friends thought Wu Bin was reminded of his tragic background, prompting them to send a wave of gifts once more.

But in reality, Wu Bin felt sad because the system had prompted him once again.

This darn system, really won't give me a moment's peace!

Li Guotai smiled and offered advice: "One should always look at things positively and not dwell on troubles."

"Just take this poisoning incident, for instance. Even though being poisoned is bad, we have obtained a lot of valuable research data by examining your body," said one of the physicians excitedly.

The doctors standing beside Li Guotai nodded vigorously in agreement.

"Indeed, Wu Bin, your body is simply marvelous! I've never seen such a wonderful body. You are truly a masterpiece of God!" exclaimed an old professor with a face full of stubble and graying hair.

His gaze upon Wu Bin was filled with both desire and sleaziness.

Wu Bin felt a chill and was on guard.

Seeing Wu Bin's reaction, Li Guotai quickly explained, "Wu Bin, don't be nervous, Professor Lu chose his words poorly."

"What he means is that your physical constitution is very robust, perhaps even a bit too much so."

Li Guotai handed two medical reports to Wu Bin.

"Look, the one on the left is the data from when you were first brought into the emergency room, and the one on the right is your current data."

"You can compare them. When you were poisoned, all your indicators were far below those of a normal person."

"Based on that data, theoretically speaking, there was no need to attempt resuscitation."

"And that's indeed what we did."

"At that time, the toxins had already spread with your blood into your various organs, causing all kinds of irreversible damage."

"Liver failure, kidney failure... they followed one after the other."

"All we could do was hydrate you and perform some supportive measures."

"We all thought you were done for, but you managed to survive thanks to your own detoxification abilities!"

Li Guotai spoke with an air of nonchalance.

But in the minds of the viewers in the live broadcast, images had already formed.

"Does the dean mean to say that they didn't really do anything, and Wu Bin survived on his own?"

"Damn, how is that even possible? How could he not be dead?"

"With poisoning, aside from some specific toxins that have antidotes, once other toxins spread throughout the body, it all comes down to the liver to detoxify."

"That's why when people are poisoned, the first thing to go is the liver. Because the liver is responsible for detoxification. If the liver fails, that person is as good as gone."

"Didn't the dean just say Wu Bin also suffered liver failure? So, how is he not gone?"

"That's why the dean called it a miracle. It's like your base was almost destroyed, but you resurrected with a crystal."

"Locking the health points, right? Alright then, that's how you play it."

"So while Wu Bin was asleep, was his immune system ruthlessly destroying the enemy?"

"King Yan: These college students nowadays are really hard to kill, huh!"

Hearing Li Guotai's explanation, Wu Bin understood why the doctors were looking at him so strangely.

Luckily, it's a society governed by law; otherwise, he might have really been taken away for dissection.

"Dean Li, so the reason you're here is?" Wu Bin asked.

Li Guotai smiled and handed over several documents.

"We are here because we want to obtain the monitoring data from your hospital stay and conduct some further tests on you. This, of course, involves your personal privacy, so we need your cooperation," he said.

"These are the collaboration documents. You can take a look first."

"If you agree, we will pay one hundred thousand yuan for medical research funding, which will be transferred to your account immediately."

One hundred thousand!

Wu Bin was moved.

Li Guotai wasn't just leaving him be but was also giving him one hundred thousand yuan.

What a good man!
