Lu Chen's voice was hoarse as he said, "Mom, I'm sorry to have worried you. I'm fine."
Su Ruoli turned around and poured a glass of water for Lu Chen. This time she didn't add spiritual spring water, mainly because there were people standing in the ward and she had no chance to add it.
Su Ruoli held the water cup and whispered to Lu Ma, "Well, Auntie, why don't you help him up first and let him drink some water. This way his throat will feel better."
"Oh! Yes, yes, yes." Mother Lu pulled Lu Chen's arm, but was afraid of pulling the wound, so she was extremely cautious in her movements.
After trying several times, she found that she couldn't shake the other party at all. Lu Ma was extremely anxious, and beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead.
Fortunately, she didn't pull Lu Chen's injured arm, otherwise, with her way of supporting him, the wound would have split open countless times.
Su Ruoli handed over the water cup, "Auntie, why don't you hold the water cup and I'll help you!"
Mother Lu took the cup of water with some embarrassment. It was obviously easy for the little girl to hold, so why was it so difficult for her?
Holding the water cup, he turned around and glared at Mr. Lu, his eyes seemed to say: Are you blind? You don't even know how to lend a hand.
Dad Lu raised his hand and touched his nose. Who would have thought that you were so weak.
Lu Chen's anesthetic may not have worn off yet, so he couldn't use any strength. Fortunately, Su Ruoli was very strong and helped him up in no time.
Seeing this, Lu's mother quickly handed the cup of water to Lu Chen's mouth. He was so old, but he still needed someone to feed him. Lu Chen refused in his heart, but reality did not allow him to do so.
After taking the first sip of water, Lu Chen frowned. Why was this water different from the water in his dream? It tasted so bad.
He clearly remembered that the water in his dream was very sweet, and he drank it several times.
Was he really dreaming? But why did it feel so real?
He drank the water in one gulp. After that, he looked at Su Ruoli in confusion, wanting to ask her if there was anything wrong with the water.
However, before he could speak, Su Ruoli said first: "You just had surgery, you can only drink boiled water. When you feel better, you can drink other things."
After hearing this, Lu Chen felt a little disappointed.
Although Lu Chen felt disappointed, he still nodded to show that he understood.
At this time, Dad Lu asked, "Achen, how do you feel? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Lu Chen shook his head, "I'm fine."
"That's good."
Lu Chen raised his arm. Although it was very difficult, he still managed to lift it up. He reached out and pulled Su Ruoli's sleeve and said, "Oh, by the way, I haven't introduced her to you yet. This is Su Ruoli, my girlfriend."
"Achen, this is really your girlfriend, so beautiful!" Mother Lu said to Su Ruoli with a smile.
Su Ruoli smiled a little embarrassedly, "Thank you, Auntie."
"Xiao Li'er, this is my mom, that's my dad, and those two old people are my grandparents." Lu Chen introduced them one by one.
Su Ruoli greeted them all obediently.
"How long have you been together?" asked Lu's father.
"Well..." Lu Chen thought for a while, "It's been a while."
"Achen, you are such a silly kid. You have a partner but you didn't even tell us." Mother Lu complained.
Lu Chen chuckled, "It's not too late yet."
"By the way, Ruoli, who else is in your family?" Dad Lu asked.
"My mother died when I was very young, and my father found a stepmother, but now I have cut off all ties with them." She was reluctant to say much about Su Shiqiang and others, mainly because she felt it was unnecessary.
"Oh, what a poor child," said Mother Lu distressedly. "We're a family from now on. If you have any difficulties, just tell us."
"Thank you, Auntie." Su Ruoli said with emotion.
Lu Chen looked at Su Ruoli and thought to himself that little Li'er must have suffered a lot of grievances at the hands of her stepmother, so she chose to sever ties with her.
Lu Chen secretly swore in his heart that he would never let Xiao Lier suffer any injustice in the future.
Lu Chen looked at Su Ruoli and said softly, "You will never be alone again. I will always be with you."
Su Ruoli was slightly stunned, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She nodded, "Yeah."
Seeing that Lu Chen was in a bad mood, Su Ruoli said, "Why don't you take a rest? I'll go ask someone if they can make you some porridge."
"Don't go. What about Zhang Hao and the others? Let them go." Lu Chen said.
"How about you guys chat while your dad and I go and endure it. We can also take the two old people to have some rest. They're probably exhausted from the long journey," said Mother Lu.
"It's okay, Auntie. I'll go. You don't know what he can eat and what he can't eat. You go and arrange the accommodation first." She was going to add spiritual spring water to the porridge, so she had to do it herself.
"Okay, you've worked hard, Ruoli!" Oh, it suddenly occurred to me whether it was okay to call her that, so I quickly asked Su Ruoli: "Auntie, can I call you Ruoli?"
"Sure, Auntie!" Su Ruoli said with a smile.
Turning around and pulling the quilt for Lu Chen, Su Ruoli said, "You sleep for a while. I'll call you when the porridge is ready."
"Well! Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Li'er!"
Only after everyone in the ward had left did Lu Chen close his eyes and recall what he had dreamed.
After an unknown amount of time, sleepiness gradually set in, making the already blurry picture even blurrier, and finally completely swallowed up by darkness... Lu Chen also fell asleep.
After they left the ward, they found that the doctor, the hospital director Zhang Hao and others were still waiting outside the ward.
Su Ruoli looked around and didn't recognize any of these people. She could only ask Zhang Hao, "Where is the supply and marketing cooperative? I want to go buy something. Also, where is the kitchen? I'll need it when I come back later to make porridge for Lu Chen."
When the dean heard that Su Ruoli wanted to use the kitchen, he immediately said, "I have a dormitory in the hospital with a kitchen. It has pots, pans, and everything. It's just that no one has ever lived there, so it might be a little dirty."
"Don't worry if it's a little dirty. No matter where it is, we can just clean it up ourselves." Zhang Hao said immediately, not knowing how to be polite at all.
"Okay! I'll go find the keys for you later." After the dean finished speaking, he turned to Mr. Lu and the others and said, "Old Chief, have you arranged your accommodation? Do you want me to help you arrange it?"
"No need, we can just stay in the guesthouse." said Mr. Lu.
"Okay, can I go in and see the patient now?" the dean asked again.
"Wait a moment, he just fell asleep." Su Ruoli said.
"Young doctor, do you have time to tell us how to perform the operation?" The doctor who performed the operation on Lu Chen at the beginning squeezed over and said.
"Okay, let's wait two days." This is not something that cannot be said. Just tell them where to make the cut, precautions and so on, and treat it as a medical exchange.
Hearing that Su Ruoli agreed to his request, the expression on the doctor's face instantly changed from nervousness to joy. The corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a big smile, and his eyes flashed with excitement.
