"The operation went smoothly, but..."
Qiao Yongkang panicked and asked quickly, "Why?"
"Because the patient was in shock, we can't say he's completely passed the critical stage yet. The worst-case scenario is that he could be in a vegetative state."
"What!" Jiang Yao exclaimed. She had never thought that Zhang Huiyun might become a vegetable.
Qiao Yongkang's heart tightened secretly, "Thank you, Doctor Li, you have really worked hard."
Doctor Li patted Qiao Yongkang on the shoulder and said, "Doctor Qiao, you don't have to be too pessimistic. After all, this is not the worst outcome. Let's observe for a few days first."
"thank you very much."
"No need. You saved my daughter last time, and I didn't even thank you properly."
Qiao Yongkang smiled and said, "It's a small matter."
Qiao Yongkang pushed Zhang Huiyun to a separate ward.
"Yaoyao, I'm worried about you going back alone. Let me take Teacher Huang back."
"Need not!"
Teacher Huang shook his head and said, "No, I can go back by myself."
Jiang Yao grabbed Teacher Huang's hand and said, "How can this be possible? It's already early in the morning. If not... you sleep on this accompanying bed."
"No problem." Huang Yali looked at Zhang Huiyun with a worried look on her face. "Actually, this is all my fault. If it weren't for me, you and Aunt Gu wouldn't be in trouble."
Jiang Yao rolled her eyes at Huang Yali and said, "Yaoyao, look at what you're saying. Gao Qiang has already caught up with us. Even if it wasn't today, he would definitely find us in the future."
"But……"
Jiang Yao interrupted immediately, "Okay, if you keep saying that, I'll be mad. Go get some sleep now."
"Okay, I won't say anything."
After Jiang Yao saw Huang Yali lying down, she asked Qiao Yongkang, "Yongkang, have you called Dad and Brother?"
"Well, I've already told them that Dad will be here tomorrow, but my brother might not be able to come back because he needs help."
Jiang Yao heard this and asked, "Is there a mission?"
"Yes, I have a mission. Anyway, I may not be back anytime soon."
"Oh...that's okay. There's nothing we can do if he doesn't come back."
When Huang Yali heard this, she still felt a little sad.
However, considering that Zhang Huiyun might not have passed the critical period yet, her problem was not a big deal at all.
Maybe she and Gu Chenxin were really not destined to be together.
Jiang Yao still looked at Huang Yali lying on the bed, thinking that she had originally wanted to help Huang Yali, but she didn't expect such a big change to happen now.
"Yongkang, I'll stay with Mom tonight."
"Let me accompany you tonight. You can have a rest for the night."
"All right."
The next night, Gu Dahua went to the hospital.
"Your mother hasn't woken up yet?"
Jiang Yao nodded. "Yes, Dad, Mom hasn't woken up yet, but the doctor said they're both doing well now, so don't worry too much."
"Yeah." When Gu Dahua nodded, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Huiyun on the hospital bed.
At this moment, his heart was filled with anxiety, but he was powerless to do anything.
"Yaoyao, you've worked hard. Can I stay with your mother tonight?"
"Dad, you take a rest tonight. You can stay with Mom during the day tomorrow. I'll switch classes with someone else and won't have classes on Tuesday. I'll come over and switch with you then." Jiang Yao suggested.
"Then it's too tiring for you to run back and forth."
Jiang Yao shook her head. "Dad, we're a family. It doesn't matter if it's hard or not. Our lives will definitely get better and better in the future."
"Okay! It's a pity that your eldest brother can't come back. I also called and asked their leader not to tell him and let him concentrate on his work."
"Okay!" Jiang Yao nodded.
"Yaoyao, didn't Xiao Huang donate blood to your mother? I bought some nutritional supplements. Can you give them to her for me?"
"Okay, I'll send it over when she comes back this weekend," Jiang Yao replied.
Another day passed, and Zhang Huiyun still showed no signs of waking up.
"Yaoyao, do you think your mother will not be able to wake up?" Gu Dahua said in a worried tone.
Jiang Yao also had such concerns, but she still comforted him, "Dad, don't worry too much. We have to trust Mom. She will definitely wake up."
"Okay! Let's cheer her on together."
The weekend came in a flash.
Huang Yali came to the ward to visit Zhang Huiyun and happened to hear Dr. Li say that Zhang Huiyun might not have much chance of waking up.
She felt very guilty.
"Uncle Gu, it's my fault! If it weren't for me, Aunt Gu wouldn't have been so busy with Gu Chenxin and me, and she wouldn't have..."
Gu Dahua immediately interrupted, "Kid, don't feel guilty. This is all the fault of those bad guys. It has nothing to do with you."
"And you've helped our family so much, we haven't thanked you enough!"
"Uncle Gu, you're too serious.
"Come, these are the gifts I brought you. Please don't be polite with me." Gu Dahai handed several gift bags to Huang Yali.
"Uncle Gu, you are too polite."
"You must accept it, or I will have a guilty conscience for the rest of my life."
Huang Yali had no choice but to accept the gift, "Then thank you."
"I'm going to rest tomorrow. How about I stay with my aunt tonight and you go to the guesthouse to rest for the night?"
Gu Dahua waved his hand and said, "Xiao Huang, thank you for your kindness. I still want to stay with your aunt."
Huang Yali had no choice but to nod, "Uncle Gu, don't be too pessimistic, there will be a way to do everything."
"I hope so."
Gu Dahua's tone was weak and he seemed a little disappointed.
Huang Yali handed Gu Dahua a book and said, "Uncle Gu, a friend of mine works at the provincial hospital in the neurology department. I asked him about this and he said he should tell his patients interesting stories or things they care about. He can also read books to stimulate his patients."
"Xiao Huang, you really are thoughtful."
"Uncle Gu, I'm willing to do anything that benefits Aunt Gu."
"Dad, I want to try acupuncture on Mom."
"Acupuncture?" Gu Dahua asked.
Qiao Yongkang nodded and said, "Yes, I've asked the doctor. Now that Mom's condition is stable, acupuncture can be used."
"Okay, let's give it a try, but aren't you a Western doctor?"
Qiao Yongkang smiled and said, "I used to be a Chinese medicine practitioner."
"I didn't expect you to have studied Traditional Chinese Medicine. Your grandfather's family is a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. Your grandfather couldn't come this time, and he couldn't take a plane. The train ride is too long, and I was afraid he wouldn't be able to handle it. So your mother only learned the basics, and your uncle didn't want to learn, so the tradition wasn't passed down."
Qiao Yongkang suddenly realized, "It turns out that my love for Chinese medicine is inherited from my family."
"Of course you will. Then you can come back to Beijing with me and study abroad."
"That's great. Your grandfather suggested it before. He said he would find someone familiar with acupuncture who could treat you."
"Dad, let me try. If it doesn't work, I'll take a few days off and go to Beijing to see grandpa."
