Ding Qiunan had already prepared the medicine that Li Chu needed. She didn't know why her husband wanted her to deliver it personally, and she still didn't know who the medicine was for.
As soon as she reached the third floor of the special needs ward, she saw Zhang Jianshe and Secretary Liu standing at the ward door. She was stunned for a moment and hadn't even reacted yet. She just muttered to herself, "Why is Uncle Wang here too?"
This celebrity really wants to retire.
Hearing footsteps, Zhang Jianshe looked over and saw Ding Qiunan carrying medicine. He forced an awkward smile and said, "Aunt Ding, you've arrived."
Secretary Liu also greeted him, "Director Ding, hello."
Ding Qiunan then realized something was wrong, and quickly walked into the ward, glancing at the person lying on the bed.
At that glance, her heart clenched, and she quickly turned to look at her husband.
Seeing his wife bring over the medicine, Li Chu went over and took the medicine container from her, saying softly, "It's nothing, Uncle Wang is just a little overworked. I'll give him some medicine and he'll rest well."
"By the way, does Aunt Wang know?"
"Well……"
Before Li Chu could speak, the deputy director said, "Vice Dean Li, Director Ding, we've already notified your families, they should be arriving soon."
If we're talking about who the fastest person in the world is, it has to be Cao Cao, because he always arrives as soon as he's told. Who else could do that?
Hearing the sound of running in the corridor outside, Li Chu knew that it must be several children and Aunt Wang coming over together.
He hurried toward the door, wanting to stop the children from making a racket. Not only did Uncle Wang need to rest, but there were other patients in the building as well.
As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Wang Yueyue running over, with Wenhui and Wenxuan supporting her from behind, and the staff members assigned to Wang Yueyue by the organization following behind.
"Yueyue, stop running. This is a hospital ward, we need to be quiet."
Seeing Li Chu appear at the door, the anxious group finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, how is Grandpa?"
Wang Yueyue couldn't wait to ask.
"It's alright, Grandpa is fine, Auntie, don't worry, my uncle is just a little tired, he'll be fine after a rest."
"Wenxuan, Wenhui, quickly help Grandma inside to sit down, and pour her another glass of water."
Li Chu's words seemed to have a magical power; with just two sentences, he calmed everyone down.
Ding Qiunan stepped out from behind her husband and took Wenxuan's arm to support Aunt Wang: "Aunt, don't get too excited. My uncle is fine. Li Chu is here."
Upon entering the ward, the three children ran straight to the bedside, while Aunt Wang was slowly helped in by Ding Qiunan.
Seeing the old man lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed and his face pale, Aunt Wang sighed sadly. She didn't go any closer to the bed, but instead had Ding Qiunan help her sit on a chair next to him, where she just stared at him.
Li Chu tested the temperature of the medicine; it was about right. He took the acupuncture needles from the special care nurse and asked the children to move aside from the bedside.
He unbuttoned Uncle Wang's shirt and quickly inserted two needles. Less than two minutes after the needles were inserted, Uncle Wang slowly opened his eyes.
He had just opened his eyes, and was clearly not yet aware of what had happened, looking around blankly.
It wasn't until he saw Li Chu that Uncle Wang realized what was happening, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Little Chu, what happened to me? How did I end up here?"
"Uncle, you're exhausted. You suddenly fainted in your office and were brought here. My aunt and the children are already here."
After hearing this, Uncle Wang turned his head and looked at the three children standing on the other side.
Aunt Wang was also helped over by Ding Qiunan: "Old man, do you not want to live anymore? Do you think you're still the same as before, able to go three or four days without sleep? You're over seventy years old. If you really don't want to live, just say so, and I'll tell Xiao Chu to stop caring about you from now on."
Aunt Wang got angrier and angrier as she talked. She was really angry this time. That old man hadn't come back for two days. She almost fainted when she received the call from above.
Ding Qiunan spent a long time calming Wang's anger down a little.
Uncle Wang lay on the hospital bed, not daring to utter a single word. He knew that no matter what he said, he would be rebuked, so he simply kept quiet and let himself be scolded for a while.
Seeing that her grandmother had stopped talking, Wang Yueyue leaned over the bedside and said, "Grandpa, Yueyue was so worried about you!"
Uncle Wang looked at his granddaughter with a big smile on his face: "Yueyue, be good, Grandpa is fine."
"Grandpa, you can't work so hard anymore. Grandma almost fainted when she answered the phone at home just now. Luckily, Brother Xuan was right next to her."
"Okay, Grandpa will listen to Yueyue. I won't work so hard anymore, and I won't let your grandma worry about me."
"Hehe," Wang Yueyue laughed happily, leaned over and kissed her grandfather on the cheek.
"Alright, everyone move aside a bit, let your grandpa drink his medicine and sleep a little longer."
Li Chu called the children aside and then asked Xu Ying to come and help him up.
"Uncle, drink this medicine and then take a nap."
Uncle Wang frowned as he looked at the large vat of medicine in front of him. Just as he was about to say something, Aunt Wang coughed loudly beside him, startling him so much that he swallowed back what he was about to say and obediently took the vat and began to drink the medicine in large gulps.
Uncle Wang's reaction amused the three children next to him, who wanted to laugh but dared not, and could only hold it in with difficulty.
After he finished taking the medicine, Li Chu and Xu Ying helped him lie down again.
Taking the two needles back from the nurse, she pricked Uncle Wang twice more. Uncle Wang, who had seemed quite energetic, soon began to droop his eyelids and fell into a deep sleep.
Li Chu took Uncle Wang's pulse again, then asked Xu Ying to stay by the bedside and told everyone else to retreat to the outer room.
He didn't notice that ever since Wenxuan saw him use acupuncture to wake his grandfather and then use the same method to put him to sleep, his eyes had been sparkling.
Wenxuan had never seen his father treat someone in person before. He only knew that his father was a skilled doctor, but he never had a direct impression of it. This time, he was able to see his father wake someone up and put them back to sleep with just two needles. It was amazing!
For the first time, he became interested in traditional Chinese medicine, and quite very interested at that.
Upon entering the outer room, Wenxuan eagerly approached Li Chu and asked, "Dad, how did you do that?"
This abrupt question left Li Chu speechless, and the others in the room also turned to look at Wenxuan in silence.
