Although Xia Tianyou gritted his teeth and endured it, beads of sweat still oozed out of his forehead and cheeks due to the pain. He grasped the edge of the operating table tightly with both hands, and his knuckles turned white.
While operating, Yang Qingyan looked up from time to time to observe Xia Tianyou's condition and asked softly: "Xia Tianyou, do you feel any changes? Is it numb or painful?"
Xia Tianyou squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "It hurts... I can bear it..."
As the operation progressed, the difficulty increased. There was a very serious nerve damage, which required more delicate treatment. Fine beads of sweat appeared on Yang Qingyan's forehead. She pursed her lips tightly, her eyes became more determined, and the medical equipment in her body was under her control, performing complex operations steadily.
Time passed by minute by minute. This operation was extremely difficult and lasted for 7 hours. Fortunately, the nerve was finally repaired.
The door of the operating room slowly opened, and Xia Tianyou's family immediately gathered around, their eyes full of anxiety and expectation.
Yang Qingyan took off her mask, with a little fatigue on her face but unable to hide her relief, and said: "Don't worry, the surgery is successful, and you can do rehabilitation according to the plan next."
Chief Xia's eyes were red, and he excitedly held Yang Qingyan's hand, thanking her repeatedly: "Comrade Yang, thank you so much, you have brought new hope to Tianyou and to our family!"
Xia Tianyou's mother had already stopped crying and kept muttering words of thanks beside him.
Yang Qingyan nodded slightly and said a few words of comfort, her eyes searching for Mu Nanhe's figure. Seeing him sitting in a wheelchair not far away, looking at her with a smile on his face, her heart was filled with warmth, knowing that no matter how hard the journey was, he was silently supporting her behind her.
Yang Qingyan then patiently instructed Xia Tianyou: "Xia Tianyou, when you return to the ward, the nurse will give you an IV. You should rest for the next two days and don't move around. After all, the nerves have just been connected and it will be a little painful. If you really can't stand it, ask someone to find me immediately."
Xia Tianyou's face was pale but he still managed to stay strong. He nodded firmly and said, "I know, Doctor Yang. Don't worry, I will do my best to cooperate."
Chief Xia, who was standing by, looked at his son's weak but resolute appearance, his eyes reddened. He gently patted Xia Tianyou's shoulder, his voice choked with sobs: "Tianyou, you have suffered a lot, listen to Doctor Yang carefully, we will definitely get better completely."
Xia Tianyou pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a comforting smile to his father: "Dad, I'm fine, don't worry, I can return to the army when I get better."
The nurse pushed Xia Tianyou's bed and slowly left. Yang Qingyan looked at their backs and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she turned around and saw Mu Nanhe in a wheelchair not far away, gazing at her tenderly. Her heart warmed, and she quickly walked to Mu Nanhe's side, squatted down, held his hand, and said softly: "The technique is very effective. Let's see how he recovers next. I hope everything goes well."
Mu Nanhe held her hand and gave her strength: "Wife, you must be tired, let's go back to the room and rest."
After returning to the room, she fell asleep immediately, and slept very peacefully and sweetly. When she woke up slowly, she met Mu Nanhe's loving eyes as soon as she opened her eyes. He was staring at her quietly, with a sea of stars in his eyes.
Yang Qingyan was sleepy, with the corners of her mouth raised, and said with a bit of coquettishness: "What's so good about sleeping?"
Mu Nanhe's smile deepened, his eyes never moved away, and he responded softly: "I can't see enough of my wife."
Yang Qingyan felt sweet in her heart. She sat up and stretched her waist. Thinking of Xia Tianyou's postoperative condition, she said to Mu Nanhe, "I'll go check on Xia Tianyou."
Mu Nanhe nodded gently, his eyes full of understanding and support: "Go, I'll wait for you."
Yang Qingyan got up, tidied her clothes, and quickly came to Xia Tianyou's room. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Xia Tianyou clenching his teeth, frowning, and beads of sweat on his forehead, obviously suffering from pain.
She hurried over and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Don't tell me, if it hurts too much, tell someone to call me."
Xia Tianyou squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "I'm fine, I can bear it."
Seeing his stubborn look, Yang Qingyan was helpless. She quickly took out the silver needle from the medical bag she carried with her, found the acupuncture point, and pierced his body accurately. At the same time, she quietly used her supernatural power, and a soft light flowed from her palm into Xia Tianyou's body.
He did not forget to comfort her softly, "Don't bear it. You don't have to endure some suffering. Why don't you move to Nanhe's ward? That way I can observe and take care of both of you while you are recovering."
After Yang Qingyan's treatment, Xia Tianyou's pain was finally relieved. He breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression became much more relaxed. His speech became much clearer. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Doctor Yang, is it okay to move to Captain Mu's ward? I'm not in so much pain now."
Yang Qingyan looked at him, smiled gently, and said, "It's not a big deal. I'm also going to do a leg surgery on him in two days. You two are brothers in distress. You can observe and do rehabilitation together, and you can also communicate and encourage each other."
When Xia Tianyou heard this, he subconsciously looked in the direction where Mu Nanhe was, and a sense of closeness unconsciously revealed in his eyes, as if Mu Nanhe had some kind of quality that attracted him. After a little thought, he agreed: "Okay, Doctor Yang, I'll follow your arrangements." Yang Qingyan nodded slightly.
Yang Qingyan and Xia Tianyou returned to Mu Nanhe's ward together. Yang Qingyan explained, "I'll let him stay with me so I can observe him. Then you two can do rehabilitation together."
Mu Nanhe said: "No problem, daughter-in-law."
Repeating the same movements and processes day after day, Yang Qingyan would come to Xia Tianyou every few hours and give him acupuncture skillfully and gently. When each needle fell, she would concentrate and slowly inject her own powerful supernatural power into it, passing it into Xia Tianyou's body through the needle tip to help him relieve the pain that penetrated deep into his bone marrow.
Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye it was already the first day. After a few days of continuous treatment and nourishment from supernatural powers, Xia Tianyou finally felt a significant change - the initial pain that surged like a tide and almost swallowed him was gradually subsiding. Now, although his body is still a little weak, the pain that was once unbearable has disappeared.
Seeing that Xia Tianyou's condition had improved, Yang Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief. However, she knew that this was just the beginning, and more efforts would be needed to make him fully recover. So, she asked someone to bring some small and exquisite balls, which were of moderate size and had a smooth and round surface.
"Tianyou, from today on, you have to hold these balls with your hands every day, tightening and relaxing them repeatedly to exercise your body strength and flexibility." Yang Qingyan said to Xia Tianyou with a smile, and personally demonstrated the correct way to hold them.
Xia Tianyou looked at the ball in the middle and nodded to show that he understood. Although this seemingly simple action was still a little difficult for him now, his eyes flashed with determination and he was determined to recover as soon as possible.
And she began to prepare for Mu Nanhe's surgery and carefully studied his leg films.
