(645)
Ye Wenyu received a call from an unfamiliar number. She answered, and a familiar voice came through, "Excuse me, is this Miss Ye Wenyu?" Ye Wenyu replied yes, and the other party breathed a sigh of relief, forced a smile, and introduced herself, "Wenyu, I'm Zhang Ma, Zhang Ma from the Lin family."
Aunt Zhang? Ye Wenyu remembered her; the loyal old maid from the Lin family. She forced a smile and said to her, "Aunt Zhang, hello."
"Young Master—" Zhang Ma thought of Lin Tingfeng and began to sob uncontrollably. At this moment, the young master was most likely already in surgery. He was alone, unable to move after the surgery, with no one to take care of him. She couldn't help but feel heartbroken, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Time could not be wasted any longer. Zhang Ma wiped away her tears and choked out to Ye Wenyu on the phone, "Young Master is in surgery. The cancer may have metastasized."
What? Like a bolt from the blue, Ye Wenyu's mind went blank. Her body swayed, as if she were experiencing an earthquake or tsunami.
Lin Tingfeng has had too many misfortunes. Only a few months have passed since his last surgery, and his cancer has already metastasized!
With a sob in her voice, Zhang Ma said, "He didn't want me to tell you, nor did he want me to tell his mother. He went to the hospital alone for surgery today, and he should have already had the operation. The old lady can't take care of herself, and I can't go to the hospital to take care of the young master. Miss Ye, I've thought and thought, and you're the only one I can think of. The young master said that last time he was sick, you took care of him and stayed by his bedside for over a month. Miss Ye, could you please help me? The thought of the young master coming out of the operating room, lying on the stretcher, unable to move, with no one to take care of him, makes me feel so bad—"
Ye Wenyu immediately said, "Aunt Zhang, I'll go right away. Tell me the hospital's address."
Zhang Ma sobbed as she gave the address.
Ye Wenyu wrote down the address, asked her supervisor for leave, and hurriedly went to the hospital.
She frantically hailed a taxi, then took the subway and a bus, her heart pounding wildly. When she got off at the stop closest to the hospital, she started running frantically. By the time she arrived at the hospital, she was out of breath and drenched in sweat.
She arrived just in time. She had only been at the hospital a short while when she was panting outside the operating room. The operating light was turned off, the operating room door opened, and Lin Tingfeng was wheeled out.
Ye Wenyu spotted him immediately and went to greet him.
"Tingfeng—" She saw his sickly, pale face and felt a sharp pain in her heart. In fact, comparing the two lives, Lin Tingfeng suffered more in this life than in the previous one. In the previous life, Lin Tingfeng was quick to avenge his enemies and hired people to kill all his enemies, only to find out that he had stomach cancer and died soon after.
Unlike this life, when she took him for a checkup and found out he had late-stage stomach cancer, she thought she had escaped death once, but unexpectedly, death soon began to call him again.
Most people really can't handle the thought of going through hell again.
Lin Tingfeng had already woken up, but the anesthesia was still working, and he couldn't move. He opened his eyes and was very surprised by Ye Wenyu's arrival.
Ye Wenyu followed the medical staff on the stretcher towards the ward.
She said firmly to Lin Tingfeng, "I will take care of you!"
Lin Tingfeng was still unable to speak. He could only shake his head with all his might to indicate that he disagreed. However, whether it was because he was weak after the surgery and his head was not moving very much, or something else, Ye Wenyu seemed not to see him.
She followed closely behind the medical staff and accompanied him to the ward.
Medical staff lifted Lin Tingfeng onto the hospital bed. The attending physician came out, looked up, picked up Lin Tingfeng's medical record, and asked, "Who is a family member?"
Lin Tingfeng was so ill, and had just undergone surgery, yet his ward was completely empty. The doctor felt a pang of sympathy for him and looked around, asking, "Where are your family members? You're so seriously ill, and none of your relatives have come to see you?"
Ye Wenyu stepped forward and said to the doctor, "I'm his girlfriend—"
Lin Tingfeng tried to speak, opened his mouth, and told the doctor, "She's not." But he was too weak to make a sound.
The doctor glanced at Ye Wenyu and said to her, "Here's the thing, the tumor has been completely removed, so the surgery was a success. As for whether it's metastasis, we'll need to take a slide of the tumor for external examination. Just wait for the results."
Ye Wenyu nodded, forced a smile, but felt a pang of sadness.
The doctor glanced at her and left with the medical staff, leaving only her and Lin Tingfeng in the ward.
All around was quiet, and the sunlight streaming in through the window was also still.
Ye Wenyu walked over to Lin Tingfeng and asked him with concern, "Would you like some water?"
Lin Tingfeng closed his eyes and ignored her.
Several hours passed. During these hours, Ye Wenyu stayed by his side. When she saw that Lin Tingfeng's lips were dry, she fed him water. When it was time to eat, she ordered takeout through a food delivery platform and fed him.
By afternoon, Lin Tingfeng had recovered somewhat after resting and receiving careful care. He opened his eyes and looked at Ye Wenyu, who had been with him for a day. He said to her, "Go!" He was too weak to speak loudly, but his tone was firm.
Seeing that he finally had the strength to speak, Ye Wenyu smiled slightly and said to Lin Tingfeng, "Tingfeng, I'm not leaving." Her voice was not loud, but her tone was just as firm.
Now is not the time to leave. The tumor that was surgically removed has been sent for testing by the doctors, and everyone is waiting for the results. This is arguably the darkest and most difficult time in Lin Tingfeng's life. How could she possibly leave now?
Lin Tingfeng still insisted, "Go!" His heart ached terribly. This silly girl, he didn't deserve her unwavering devotion.
