Chapter 55: Playing Both Sides
Four hours later.
The operation is over.
As soon as the doctor came out, Lin Yue ran over and grabbed the doctor's hand, asking anxiously, "Is something wrong with my son? Huh?"
Lu Zhenyu was startled by her.
"Well, ma'am, don't get too excited. Your son is fine. The surgery went smoothly. He's been sent to the ICU for observation and will be transferred to a general ward in 24 hours."
An's father and An Mi's hearts were relieved in an instant.
"Mom, I told you, I won't let anything happen to my brother." An Mi said, "Don't be so surprised."
When Lin Yue heard that her son was fine, she felt relieved.
The other side.
Su He stood outside the ICU ward.
"Lan Yan, keep an eye on him. If anything happens, be sure to tell me immediately."
"Okay, boss."
As soon as Su He came out of the ICU, he received a call from the head nurse.
"Hey, Head Nurse, what's going on?"
Jiang Huai said, "Director Su, Mr. Long is about to be discharged from the hospital. He said he wanted to see you before he left."
Su He: "Got it, I'll go over now."
-
Five minutes later.
Long Aotian's ward.
"Mr. Long, I heard that you wanted to see me?" Before Su He arrived, his voice had already entered the ward from the door.
"Su girl, you're here." Long Aotian's face was full of smiles when he saw her.
Also in the ward were Long Bingyan and his wife, as well as Long Hesong, who was Grandpa Long's grandson.
And Jiang Yan.
Su He greeted Long Bingyan and his wife before walking up to the old man.
The old man was sitting in a wheelchair.
"Come, old man, let me take your pulse." As she said this, she half-knelt down in front of Long Aotian.
Then he placed three fingers on Mr. Long's wrist in a very professional manner.
Long Aotian smiled kindly and looked at her: "Su girl, can you take a pulse?"
"Yeah, I know a little bit. My grandpa taught me when I was a kid." Su He smiled and looked up and said, "Grandpa's pulse is very good. There's nothing serious. He just has a slight deficiency of Qi and blood. This won't affect him. Go home and do some proper exercise, such as taking a walk, practicing Tai Chi, etc., and pay more attention to rest, eat well, and maintain a good mood. Everything will be fine."
"Okay, okay." The old man responded with a smile.
Then, the old man looked at Long Bingyan who was standing beside him and said, "Bring my things here."
"Yes, Dad."
Long Bingyan turned around and took down an exquisite long box from the table.
"Here, Dad." Then he handed it to the old man.
Long Hesong recognized what it was at a glance. After all, he had been beaten up by the old man because of it.
"Su girl, I heard from Old Su before that you have loved calligraphy since you were a child." Long Aotian said kindly, "Here, this brush is for you."
Su He took a look at the pattern on the wooden box and recognized that it was a gold-lacquered pen with a dragon and phoenix pattern made by Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty.
Ten years ago, it was sold for 4.485 million yuan at an auction house in Kyoto, becoming the most expensive pen in history. It turned out that this pen was collected by Mr. Long.
Su He smiled and said, "Old man, this gift is too valuable. I am a doctor and you are my patient. Treating you is my job and mission. Besides, our country explicitly prohibits doctors from accepting gifts from patients, so I cannot accept your gift. Moreover, if the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty as a commoner."
She knew what the old man was thinking.
And he recognized that it was she who performed the surgery on him.
Then she added, "If you want to thank me, just be obedient and take good care of your health."
The old man was also a reasonable man. "Okay, then I will give this brush to Jiang Yan."
Hidden meaning: Since you are husband and wife, if it is inconvenient for you to accept it, then give it to your husband.
Su He: “…”
Then, the group left the ward.
Long Hesong and Jiang Yan walked at the end.
"Fifth brother, this is the first time I've seen the old man be so generous. He actually reluctantly gave away the treasure he had treasured for ten years without blinking an eye." He muttered to Jiang Yan.
That's a brush that costs more than four million yuan, and he usually doesn't want to use it even once.
He also didn't let them touch it. Last time, out of curiosity, he wrote a few words with this brush in the study. The old man found out and beat him up severely. He still remembers it.
The old man in their family likes to collect antiques and treasures, so he has a reverse scale. He will touch anything except the treasures in his collection.
Hospital gate.
"Su girl, next month is my birthday. You must come. If it's not for you, I don't know if I can celebrate my birthday next month."
Before getting in the car, Long Aotian invited Su He: "Come with Jiang Yan then."
Su He smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Jiang Yan subconsciously stood side by side with her, and the two looked very compatible.
He tilted his eyes slightly and looked at her.
In the past few days, the relationship between the two has not made any progress, but has become more and more unfamiliar.
Although she has been in Yuefu Villa these days, she still asked someone to move all her things to the second bedroom.
The two watched the Long family leave.
Su He said nothing and turned around to leave.
Jiang Yan reached out and grabbed her wrist in time.
"What's wrong?" Su He looked at him and asked.
"Have you been in a bad mood these days?" The man frowned and asked with a stern look.
Su He tilted her head slightly, glanced at him and said, "I'm fine. Are you worried that your eyesight is not good? How about I take you to the ophthalmology department while we are still in the hospital?"
Jiang Yan's forehead veins bulged slightly, but he still said helplessly, "But you haven't spoken to me at home these past few days."
Su He was slightly stunned. "No, what do you want me to say to you? You won't let me say what I want to say, so I can only keep silent."
All she wanted to talk about was divorce.
Both of them knew this very well.
"Su He, about what happened in the restaurant that day, I..."
"You don't have to explain to me." Su He interrupted him: "Whoever you eat with is your right. I won't interfere, but..."
She narrowed her eyes, a hint of coldness in her clear eyes, "You shouldn't talk to Xia Xia like that."
The implication is: You can protect your people, but you shouldn't threaten my people.
In fact, at that moment, Su He didn’t know why he was so unhappy, and he still remembers it to this day.
Maybe it was because he was still her legal husband and was scolding her best friend.
Jiang Yan frowned. She had ignored him these past few days because of this, not because of jealousy.
