Lu Ran stared blankly at the two people who seemed to have descended from the heavens, her heart filled with mixed emotions, and soon tears fell again.
"Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo, actually I..."
"Don't say anything, saving lives is the priority."
Jiang Can stepped forward and took her hand.
Lu Ran's small hands were icy cold, but when she suddenly felt this warmth, her body trembled involuntarily.
After finishing everything, Huo Junyang stood quietly with Lu Ran at the door of the operating room.
Huo Zhixing has already sent the best experts, and Lu Ran's mother will be out of danger.
At this moment, Jiang Can coughed loudly and gave Huo Junyang a wink. At the same time, Huo Zhixing also came over.
"Yangyang, call your brother and tell him to come to the hospital immediately!"
"Ah, this..."
"Listen carefully, it's your brother!" Jiang Can emphasized. "Let him come alone!"
Seeing the dark clouds on his parents' faces, Huo Junyang knew that a storm was brewing, so he had no choice but to obediently make a phone call.
"Hey, bro," Huo Junyang said, hiding behind the wall, "you...you shouldn't be busy with important business at this time, right?"
A roar came from the other end: "Speak your mind!"
Huo Junyang immediately stood at attention and spoke very quickly: "Relay Mom's order, come to the hospital immediately, you alone!"

While waiting for Huo Junyu, the emergency surgery was completed, and the doctor came out of the operating room with a relieved smile.
Lu Ran rushed forward, but her throat tightened and she couldn't utter a single word.
Finally, Jiang Can asked, "Is everything going smoothly?"
"Don't worry, madam," the doctor smiled. "The patient is out of danger and can be moved back to her ward after the observation period. Professor Huo and Professor Shen are inside now, discussing the next steps in the treatment plan."
Jiang Can nodded and looked at Lu Ran with a light smile.
A huge weight lifted from Lu Ran's heart, but tears welled up uncontrollably.
"Sister!" Huo Zhixin's voice came from that moment.
She walked out of the operating room in a white coat. Time had given her a mature air, but it couldn't change the way she was called "sister".
No matter what, Jiang Can is always the "older sister," and her older brother instantly becomes her "brother-in-law."
"So kind!" Jiang Can happily grasped her hand. "Where's Shen Xiao?"
"This surgery was quite typical, and Shen Xiao was not willing to let this opportunity pass. He called several of his best students to observe it. Now that we have finished studying the treatment plan, he still wants to explain a few points to note about this surgery to his students."
"So... what exactly is the patient's condition?"
“There are indeed symptoms of kidney failure,” Huo Zhixin replied confidently, “but it’s not serious enough to require a kidney transplant.”
"What?"
Lu Ran was shocked, her eyes widened, and she was speechless for a long time.
No need for a kidney transplant?
But hasn't Lu Ming been using the kidney transplant as leverage against her?
Huo Zhixin looked through the hospital records and frowned slightly.
According to the hospital's records, there are indeed several patients waiting for kidney transplants in this department, but Lu Ran's mother is not among them.
Lu Ran's heart tightened...
In other words, Lu Ming had been lying to her all along.
Without a kidney donor, my mother's illness wasn't that serious.
It was only because the mother and daughter knew nothing about medicine that they were constantly manipulated by Lu Ming!
Lu Ran clenched her fists tightly, almost biting her lips until they bled.
“I understand,” Jiang Can said, seeing this, “If she doesn’t need a kidney transplant, that means she’ll recover quickly, right?”
“It won’t be quick,” Huo Zhixin said calmly. “Kidney dysfunction is a long-term and chronic condition that is very distressing. This patient was already in poor health, so we can only try to treat him conservatively.”
Do you have a solution?
"Yes." Huo Zhixin nodded with a smile. "A new effective drug has been developed in Europe. It has passed clinical trials and is specifically for this disease... Of course, the cost is also high, so patients' families should consider it carefully."
Lu Ran moved her lips, her face showing reluctance.
Jiang Can, standing to the side, laughed and said, "It's alright, as long as there's a special medicine, just use it! Our United Hospital isn't so short of money that we can't afford this!"
"Aunt Jiang..."
Lu Ran's voice choked, and she looked at her with a complicated expression, unable to say a word.
“I’ve said it before, as long as we’re here, your mother will be safe.”
Jiang Can turned his face, gently took her hand, and gave her a firm smile.
Lu Ran's mind went blank, her heart pounding. She felt like she was dreaming, yet the dream felt so real.
She instinctively grabbed Jiang Can's hand, as if afraid of waking up from this dream.
“Auntie, I…” Lu Ran’s eyes were red, “I’m sorry, I’ve been lying to you all this time, I…”
"Don't say anything more." Jiang Can gently patted the back of her hand twice. "Go take care of your mother first. As for this special medicine, I promise I'll make sure she gets it in time!"
Lu Ran looked at her, tears streaming down her face, and finally, accompanied by a nurse, slowly walked into the ward.
Jiang Can was also feeling bad.
Just then, a large hand gently pressed on her shoulder, and the familiar scent emanating from that person instantly soothed her tense nerves.
She leaned against the man's chest as usual, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Now that I'm older, I really can't bear to see the younger generation suffer."
Huo Zhixing put his arm around her and chuckled softly, "You always say I spoil the child, but I think you spoil him even more!"
“It’s different!” Jiang Can looked up at him. “We can’t spoil those two brats at home, but girls as well-behaved and adorable as Mianmian and Ranran have to be pampered and cherished! By the way… what about those two brats?”
