Chapter 372 Vegetative State



Ji Zhinan wanted to say something, but her mind went blank, and she didn't know what to say.

Ji Zhixia finally struggled free from the threat of death. She collapsed to the ground in a disheveled state, clutching her neck and coughing while gasping for fresh air.

"Xiaxia..." Madam Ji was so frightened by Ji Zhinan's bloodthirsty gaze that she dared not utter a word or step forward.

Finally seeing that her daughter was safe, she rushed over to help Ji Zhixia.

Seeing her daughter's flushed face, she felt extremely distressed.

"Sweetie, Xiaxia, Mommy's here..."

Because of Ji Zhinan's appearance and Gu Yibei's kick, the Mu family lost face and stood there without moving.

While Mrs. Ji was worried about Ji Zhixia, Aunt Min was still rolling on the ground in pain.

Surprisingly, Ji Pengfei, the biological son, did not rush up to inquire about his father's condition at this moment. Instead, he sat there with a cold face, watching Ji Zhinan, who was anxiously asking about the situation.

Soon the old man was wheeled out, his body covered in bandages, his face pale, and his breathing weak. If Qin Yu hadn't told them that the old man was still alive, Ji Zhinan would have really thought that the old man was gone.

"He was first transferred to the intensive care unit for observation. Although his life has been saved, he is still in a critical period these next few days and his condition could change at any time."

Qin Yu calmly gave instructions to the doctor, and the doctors and nurses pushed the old man to the intensive care unit.

Ji Zhinan was worried about the old man, and his eyes kept following the stretcher and the cart.

Seeing an opportunity, Mu Daxiang quickly stepped forward with a beaming smile.

"It's so good that the old man is alright, everyone's happy, hahaha..."

"..." No one answered him.

The awkwardness was palpable in the air. Mu Daxiang's smile froze for a long time before he quickly forced another laugh and continued.

"Mr. Gu, I'm so sorry. That brat was so ungrateful and offended me. It's my fault for not raising him properly. Please don't take it to heart."

"Do you remember me? My name is Mu Daxiang. I gave you two plots of land before, hehe..."

As if there was no air on the other side, Gu Yibei didn't even look at him, turned around and hugged Ji Zhinan in his arms, whispering, "Let's go see Grandpa, okay?"

"Hmm." Ji Zhinan nodded, glanced at the Ji family of three before leaving, and then went with Gu Yibei to the intensive care unit to take care of the old man.

The remaining members of the Mu and Ji families were either embarrassed or howling in pain.

………

After the nurses settled the old man in, Ji Zhinan and Gu Yibei, dressed in sterile gowns, sat by the bedside.

The old man's hands were bound by thick plaster casts and gauze, and the bloodstains on them had not yet been wiped clean.

For some reason, Ji Zhinan felt that the old man had lost weight after only a few days apart.

Ji Zhinan's eyes were extremely sore, and he frowned, trying not to let himself shed tears.

Sometimes, you never know which will come first, an accident or tomorrow.

Gu Yibei tiptoed out of the intensive care unit, and Qin Yu came to wait after washing her hands and changing her clothes.

Seeing Gu Yibei come out, Qin Yu glanced inside through the small window on the door of the intensive care unit.

What are the chances of her waking up?

Gu Yibei didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Qin Yu looked at him and shook his head: "Less than twenty percent."

"..."

"A person in a vegetative state is someone whose cerebral cortex function is severely damaged, who is in an irreversible deep coma and loses consciousness, but whose subcortical centers can maintain spontaneous breathing and heartbeat."
