He placed her on the upper bed, but seeing that she showed no signs of waking up, he checked his watch. It was past 4 a.m. Commander Gu was still waiting for the results of today's surgery. Without thinking much, Huo Haocheng grabbed his car keys and drove to the regiment.
At this moment, the group's test had reached its final stage: carrying a 10-kilogram load for 5 kilometers. When he arrived, they were running out. As soon as he saw them run far away, Bai Sirui turned around and saw Huo Haocheng driving over from afar. "You're back."
They immediately stepped forward and asked, "How was it? Did the surgery go smoothly today?" Even though he was a seasoned veteran, Commander Gu was still worried all day.
Seeing that they had all come over, Huo Haocheng immediately stopped the car, got out, and took two steps toward them when he heard Commander Gu's question.
"Commander, don't worry, the surgery went very smoothly," he said proudly.
"Good, that's good." At this moment, Commander Gu was also extremely proud. His own child had overcome the difficult disease and the surgery was successful. In this way, no one would stop Ruan Ruan from doing what she wanted to do in the future. Because no one could guarantee that they would not get sick, and even less could they guarantee that they would not have to ask Ruan Ruan for help one day. Therefore, even those people would not dare to easily harm Ruan Ruan now.
Who wouldn't want to build a good relationship with a doctor who can save their life?
"This is wonderful!" Despite their lip-syncing, Bai Sirui was also happy for his little sister at this moment. That's right, after Ruan Ruan helped him get his family's approval, he regarded Ruan Ruan as the second most important person. The most important person, of course, was his Ruan Shaoke.
"Yes, that's wonderful." Seeing his happy expression, Ruan Shaoke echoed. A couple of days ago, after getting his grandfather's permission, Bai Sirui hugged him and told him that from now on, Ruan Ruan would be his younger sister. In his heart, he would be number one and Ruan Ruan would be number two. At the time, he even laughed at him for being a fool.
"Commander, Captain, congratulations!"
"Commander, Captain, congratulations!"
Yes, congratulations!
The others all offered their congratulations.
Over the past six months, they have gotten along well with Ruan Ruan, and they are happy for her even though she usually feeds them.
"Thank you, but let's skip it today. My wife had surgery for several hours and is tired. She's resting now. Tomorrow she has to go to the hospital for a debriefing meeting with the hospital director and others. Once she's done with this busy period, we'll invite you all to our home for a get-together."
These are his brothers who have gone through thick and thin with him. Now, they are all happy that his wife's surgery was successful today. He is also very happy, happy to have such brothers, and even more proud of his wife.
"Alright, we'll be waiting!"
“That’s right, that’s right. When you go back, tell Ruan Ruan that we can eat whenever we want. Tell her to focus on her own things and take care of her health. Don’t let her health deteriorate because of being busy. That would be a loss.” Su Yanqiu knew all too well how difficult it was to be a doctor. When he was a child, he watched his grandfather, father, and aunt spend every day at the hospital. When they were busy, they could only eat some pastries and snacks to fill their stomachs.
Several times, he accompanied his grandmother to the hospital to deliver meals to them. On the same day, they waited in the office from 12:30 pm to 6 pm but did not see them. After that, they could only take the food they brought back untouched, cook dinner, and then bring it back to them.
Therefore, Su Yanqiu always felt that the profession of doctor was more sacred than his profession as a soldier.
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on her." Today was also the first time Huo Haocheng had truly experienced the medical profession. He realized that when doctors are busy, they work for hours on end, just like him.
Before, he waited outside the operating room as a comrade-in-arms. Today, he waits outside the operating room as a doctor's family member. Looking at the patient's family, he felt a difference. Perhaps one day, he will be waiting outside as a patient's family member. He thought that when that day really comes, he will definitely go in with her. He wants to watch over her at all times.
"Alright, you've had a tiring day too, go back and rest. We'll keep an eye on things here, and it'll be over soon, so go back now."
Seeing that they still wanted to say something, Commander Gu interrupted them. The soldiers who had taken the exam would be back soon, and Huo Haocheng looked exhausted. Although he seemed to have done nothing today, they all understood the worry he felt. So Commander Gu told him to go back and that they could talk about it tomorrow.
"Go back and rest, this is almost over."
"Alright, I'll trouble you again tomorrow, Commander. I need to take Ruan Ruan to the hospital early in the morning. After she finishes her work tomorrow, Grandpa Su and the others should be going back the day after tomorrow. Then, I won't have anything to do anymore."
He wants to go with her tomorrow for two reasons: first, he's worried about Ruan Ruan; second, her surgery was just successful, and there will be many people at the hospital asking about her. With so many people around, it would be bad if one or two spies or something slipped in.
“Alright, we feel more at ease with you with us.” After receiving Commander Gu’s approval, Huo Haocheng slowly drove away from the regiment under their watchful eyes.
On his way back, he stopped by the cafeteria to get dinner.
Just like they said, he was really tired. If he went back now and cooked, it would take a long time. He got the food and went back home. There were also some dried chicken and rabbit that Huo Haoshen and the others had brought back after the New Year. He stewed a chicken soup so that Ruan Ruan could drink it when she woke up.
After arriving home, he set out the food, glanced at his wife on the bed, and seeing that she was fast asleep, he didn't wake her. Instead, he went to the kitchen and began preparing stewed chicken.
