Yang Suxian rolled her eyes and almost fainted.
She cried and screamed, but Xiao Xueyi pretended not to hear. He ignored all the noise, took Shitou's clothes, and left.
Yang Suxian couldn't catch her breath, and after watching his back as she collapsed to the ground, she fainted from anger.
When Xiao Xueyi returned to the ward, Shi Tou had just fallen asleep. Dr. Wang came over after checking on the patients and gave some instructions.
"Comrade Xiao, the child's condition is much more stable now, and there is no longer any danger to his life. We can be more daring in administering medication. In addition, Comrade Shuying's acupuncture is also very effective. According to the current examination, it should not leave any lasting effects. Apart from not being able to engage in strenuous exercise for a short period of time, please see if Comrade Shuying has any other special instructions."
Xiao Xueyi finally felt relieved: "Thank you, Dr. Wang. I'm so grateful for your help these past few days."
Dr. Wang waved his hand, saying he had another surgery in ten minutes, and hurriedly went to change into his surgical gown.
Xiao Xueyi stood by the hospital bed, looking at the pot of water that Shu Ying had left behind, still remembering her instructions before she left.
She said that some special medicinal herbs were added to the water, and it should be given to the child three times a day.
Xiao Xueyi looked at Shi Tou's thin figure, who never smiled even when he was sleeping, his small face tightly furrowed.
Shu Ying previously explained that it was because he was under a lot of mental stress and it might take a long time for him to calm down and accept his current peace.
Thinking of the trauma his child had suffered, Xiao Xueyi burst into tears.
Fortunately, the child is now out of danger; otherwise, he would never be able to face his deceased wife. If they were to be reunited in the afterlife, his wife would probably blame him.
He gently took the child's hand and looked out the window at the sky. It had rained a couple of days ago, and the sky was a bright blue with a few clouds drifting lazily by.
Xiao Xueyi's lips twitched, he sniffed softly, and his voice choked with emotion as he promised, "Wife, don't worry, I will never dare to neglect the child again. I didn't keep my promise to you back then, but from now on, I will personally take care of everything I promised you. I will protect our child and keep my promise to you."
Ren Wangshu suffered greatly when he passed away, and even as he closed his eyes, he was still thinking about stones.
She was worried about her child and always had many things to tell him.
But she didn't even have the strength to speak. With all her might, she lifted her eyelids to look at the child, and a last tear rolled down her cheek.
No matter how much Xiao Xueyi cried and screamed, she was never able to open her eyes again.
Memories flooded back like a tide. Xiao Xueyi placed Shi Tou's hand on his cheek, feeling the child's warmth, and finally felt a sense of peace.
“I’ve already sent my mom back to the countryside. Whether she likes it or not, I will never let her see the stone again. Also, I’ve decided to apologize to my parents-in-law. They are the ones who truly treat the stone as family.”
