After repeated deliberation and discussion, Xiao Qianqian and her family finally set the surgery date. Early this morning, the entire Ye family, including Ye Boya, rushed back from abroad, along with Ye Bosen's maternal grandfather and his family, as well as Xiao Qianqian's parents.
The corridor was crowded with people, all with solemn expressions. Xiao Qianqian and her two senior colleagues, along with the hospital director and several experts, had changed into their surgical gowns and were all on high alert.
As they were about to enter the operating room, Ye's mother grabbed Xiao Qianqian's hand; "Qianqian..." Her face was full of worry. Seeing her mother's worried expression, Xiao Qianqian quickly reassured her, "Mom, don't worry."
After saying that, he led the group into the operating room, closed the door, and turned on the red light.
Mother Ye was still very worried and anxious. She couldn't control her anxiety and held Father Ye's hand, saying, "Honey, will Ah Sen be alright?" Her hand trembled slightly as she spoke.
Father Ye patted her hand and comforted her, "Didn't Qianqian say she would put your mind at ease?"
"I know, but my heart is pounding."
“You’re just worrying too much. Come sit down and have some water.” After saying that, he handed Ye’s mother a glass of water.
Seeing how worried her mother was, Ye Boya quickly came over and said, "Mom, don't worry, my brother will be fine."
When Xiao's mother saw that her face had turned pale with worry, although she was also very worried, she still came over and took Ye's mother's hand; "In-law, everything will be alright, let's cheer for Asen!"
Mother Ye looked at Mother Xiao, who was holding her hand, and said, "Thank you, in-law." Mother Ye nodded.
Time ticked by, and everyone outside the operating room was extremely anxious.
Looking at the quiet operating room and the glaring red light, Ye's mother's heart, which had been at ease, began to race again. She stood up and walked hurriedly to the operating room door, pacing back and forth there. Ye's father saw her like this, shook his head, and followed her to the operating room door.
"Honey, how much time has passed? It feels like so much time has gone by!"
"You're too hasty; only three hours have passed."
"Only three hours? Oh, right, how many hours did Qianqian say it would take?"
"About ten hours." Ye's father didn't specify the timeframe, assuming everything went smoothly; otherwise...
"Does it really take this long?" Mother Night was stunned; time seemed to be passing too slowly.
"Come on, let's go sit down. Don't keep pacing around here; everyone seems worried about you."
When Mother Night turned around, she realized that everyone was looking at her with concern.
She forced a smile and looked at everyone; "I'm fine." After saying that, her father helped her to sit down in a chair, but her heart was beating very fast and she just couldn't calm down.
Mother Ye held Father Ye's hand tightly, her eyes never leaving the operating room door. She prayed incessantly, hoping her son would be safe and sound.
Time ticked by, but the operating room door remained quietly closed. Everyone was extremely worried. Even the usually composed Old Master Ye stood up, and the butler quickly helped him up.
"Sir, would you like to go for a walk?"
"Ah Hao, how much time has passed? Why haven't they come out yet?"
"Master, nine hours have passed, it should be soon. The young mistress said it would be about ten hours."
"It should be soon, but my heart is pounding, I'm worried..."
"Don't worry, sir. You must trust the young mistress's medical skills. Besides, there are many experts and her senior brothers assisting her. The young master will be fine."
"I know, then let's wait a bit longer."
Even Uncle Ye came for this surgery. He sat alone in a corner, looking haggard, and hadn't shaved. Although Grandpa Ye had promised to help him find Aunt Ye, she seemed to have vanished into thin air. Many people were sent to look for her, but there was no news.
He was originally planning to go out to look for someone early this morning, but Old Master Ye dragged him here, saying that he was the second uncle and that since his nephew had such a major operation, he should at least come to see him. He had no choice but to come to the hospital with the old man, but his heart was not here at all. He was still thinking about where to find Second Aunt Ye later.
More than an hour passed, and the surgery had been going on for almost eleven hours, but the operating room door remained quiet, and the glaring red light was still shining brightly. Everyone sitting there was on edge, and they could no longer sit still. They stood up and paced around the operating room door.
"Why hasn't Asen come out yet? Has something happened to him?" a noblewoman from a collateral branch of the Ye family said.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!" Her husband quickly pulled her aside and scolded her sternly.
“I didn’t say anything wrong. Look at the time, it’s been more than ten hours. Even foreign experts don’t dare to take on this surgery. Asen’s wife just knows how to show off. I hope she doesn’t cause a death.”
“I told you to shut up, but you still kept talking.” Her husband’s eyes were fierce.
"If she doesn't want to talk, she doesn't have to, as long as she doesn't embarrass herself."
Two young women from the collateral branch of the family huddled together, whispering: "I think Second Aunt is right. The eldest son's wife is really bold. She took on a surgery that other experts wouldn't dare to do. Now look what's happened. It's been more than ten hours and she still hasn't come out. Who knows what might have happened?"
"I think so too. She's not even a full-time doctor, yet she dares to have the hospital director assist her. She acts like she's so great. I hope she doesn't embarrass herself later."
Although they were speaking softly, Xiao's mother, who was sitting next to them, still heard them. She stood up, intending to confront them, but Xiao's father stopped her and shook his head at her.
"Why are you pulling me? How can they talk like that?" Mrs. Xiao was furious. She hated these gossipy women the most.
"This is a hospital, we need peace and quiet. Do you want to cause a scene?"
“I just can’t stand hearing them talk about our daughter.”
"Alright, don't be angry. Getting angry is bad for your health," Mr. Xiao comforted her. "We know our daughters very well, so don't take it to heart."
After hearing what Mr. Xiao said, Mrs. Xiao's emotions calmed down a little, but she was still somewhat indignant.
Just then, "ding—" the operating room light finally went out. The operating room door opened. The doctors walked out of the operating room, took off their masks, and showed tired but relieved smiles on their faces.
Mother Ye hurriedly stood up and went to greet him, asking, "Doctor, how is my son?"
The doctor smiled and said, "The surgery was successful, and the patient is out of danger, but they still need to be observed for a period of time."
Upon hearing the news, Mother Ye was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She grasped the doctor's hand and thanked him repeatedly.
