CHAPTER 1897: CHAPTER 991: ANTI-CANCER MIRACLE DRUG RESEARCH PROJECT

On the plane, Ding Yue found it hard to sleep.

In the past, whenever he flew, he would take a nap on the plane. After all, he was flying in luxury class, and it was perfectly suited for some rest.

Especially this time, flying from New York City in America to Mist City domestically, it’s a very long flight.

But despite this, Ding Yue simply couldn’t fall asleep on the plane, his mind was preoccupied with his father Ding Jianjun’s illness, and the fact that his father was diagnosed with brain cancer hit the family with surprise and distress.

Although Ding Yue didn’t sleep, his sister Ding Xiaoyou had already fallen asleep.

Because after they boarded the plane, Ding Yue noticed that she secretly cried for quite a while, possibly exhausted by her tears, she naturally drifted off to sleep.

"Yue,"

Seeing that Ding Yue was not resting, Huang Youjie came over to sit beside him.

The entire luxury cabin was chartered by Ding Yue, so there was no problem for Huang Youjie and Xu Bin to come over to his side.

"Hey, Huang, you’re not resting?"

Ding Yue looked at Huang Youjie and asked.

"You’re not resting either. I know you probably can’t sleep. Regarding Uncle Ding’s situation, is there any hope of, well, curing him?"

Huang Youjie brought up the discussion about Uncle Ding’s condition.

This was a time to talk more with Ding Yue, so he wouldn’t overthink things alone, as it could easily affect his mindset.

"We’ll see how things go after the surgery at the hospital,"

Ding Yue sighed and said, "Cancer is not something that’s easily cured. Generally, the approaches are to remove the tumor or directly transplant the affected area, but brain cancer is different. You can only use the first method, tumor removal surgery."

"Didn’t they say Mist City Central Hospital has invited a top-notch surgical team? I’m sure they can perform the tumor removal surgery well."

Huang Youjie said confidently.

"That’s what I think too."

Ding Yue smiled lightly, trying to relax as he said, "However, it would be great to have an anti-cancer drug that can kill cancer cells."

"Yeah."

Huang Youjie nodded a little and said, "Is it possible to develop such an anti-cancer drug?"

"Perhaps I could invest a large amount of money to give it a try, but it would take time. Hopefully, Dad’s surgery goes smoothly to remove the tumor from his brain, buying us time until an effective anti-cancer drug can be developed. There’s hope then."

Ding Yue pondered and said.

Tumor removal surgery is a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. For early-stage benign tumors, it can indeed be curative, since usually, early benign tumors can be completely removed, leading to recovery.

But Ding Jianjun’s brain tumor is not in the early stage; it has progressed to the late stage and started spreading. In such a situation, removing all the tumor with surgery is quite difficult.

"If that’s the case, it would be wonderful."

Huang Youjie was also very hopeful after hearing Ding Yue’s plans.

However.

Huang Youjie knew very well that developing an anti-cancer drug capable of killing cancer cells would be harder than traversing the Shu Road.

Though that’s what Huang Youjie thought.

Ding Yue didn’t think so because he had the University System.

"Thanks, Huang, for comforting me. I’m feeling a bit lighter now. You should take a break; it’s a long flight back to the country."

Ding Yue thanked Huang for his support and suggested he rest.

After all, crossing the Pacific back to the homeland required a long flight time.

"Alright."

Seeing this, Huang Youjie nodded and said to Ding Yue, "You should also rest early."

"Okay."

Ding Yue nodded in agreement.

After Huang Youjie left, Ding Yue took a deep breath and adjusted his mindset to the best state possible.

Since he had already thought about it earlier, he considered letting the researchers and students at the School of Medicine of Mist City Arts and Science University work on an anti-cancer drug. However, this high-tech innovation would first need to be exchanged from his University System.

"System."

Ding Yue’s thoughts moved slightly, bringing up his University System panel.

In an instant.

A light blue screen appeared in front of Ding Yue, the familiar University System interface he had used for many years to exchange various high-tech innovations and complete many University Tasks, earning a lot of money, technology, knowledge, and items as rewards.

There is a very important feature in Ding Yue’s University System, which is the System Store.

Ding Yue had exchanged many high-tech items using points in the System Store, applying them to Mist City Arts and Science University, such as advanced technologies and learning boosts.
