"Sorry, I'm busy right now."

"And I wouldn't help with this even if I had the time."

"Don't forget, my dad's legs almost couldn't stand up forever because of you."

"My mother was very sad because of this incident, and my father was in despair for a while."

"Have you ever thought that if I hadn't discovered this in time, would they, at their old age, have fallen into despair and been unable to extricate themselves?"

"Because your decision can have a huge impact on their lives, and they may never get over it."

"You helped me under my threat. I can only say that I won't hold you responsible, but I can't consider you as a friend."

Ye Qingtao's words were so harsh and decisive that the smile on Doctor Wu's face froze instantly.

He originally wanted to remain decent, but he really couldn't hold it back.

He is almost 50 years old and is an old doctor in the hospital. His medical skills are pretty good and he can be said to be respected.

Usually, except for their director, everyone else speaks to him politely.

He doesn't have many desires and seldom asks others for anything.

Now I finally opened my mouth, but I didn't expect to be rejected mercilessly.

His face turned pale and he took several steps back, his body shaky.

Ye Qingtao didn't care about his situation at all.

She found a chair, sat down, closed her eyes and began to rest.

Her mind was tense throughout the more than two-hour operation, but she suddenly relaxed and felt a little tired.

Doctor Wu was still standing there. He glanced at Ye Qingtao who had closed his eyes and was resting.

I wanted to speak several times, but finally kept my mouth shut.

He could clearly feel that Ye Qingtao didn't like him, so he didn't want to continue to make himself unhappy.

Doctor Wu staggered when he left and almost fell to the ground because of his unsteady walking.

After Doctor Wu left, the surroundings became even quieter and Ye Qingtao continued to close his eyes and rest.

When it was time for dinner, her mother hadn't come out yet, so Ye Qingtao went to the hospital cafeteria to eat and brought two meals back for them.

When Ye Qingtao returned to the ward, her father still hadn't woken up.

Zhu Guihua moved a stool and sat in front of the bed. She held his hand tightly, looking a little dazed.

"Mom, are you hungry? Come and have something to eat."

Ye Qingtao put the food on the table, and Zhu Guihua finally came back to his senses.

She had been distracted and had not noticed the passage of time.

It was only after his daughter reminded him that he came to his senses. It was already dark outside. No wonder he felt a little hungry.

"Qingtao, luckily you are by my side, otherwise I really don't know what I would do about what happened today."

Zhu Guihua has been strong-willed all his life and usually appears tough to others.

Ye Qingtao rarely saw her looking so vulnerable, and felt a little distressed.

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? We are a family. We should help each other when we are in trouble. Isn't that what I should do?"

Ye Qingtao answered as a matter of course. Zhu Guihua wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and forced a smile on her face.

"Yes, yes, we are a family. My daughter has finally grown up, and mommy will have to worry less from now on."

Zhu Guihua could clearly feel that after the last incident, her daughter had become much stronger than before.

She is also more opinionated than before, and seems to be hiding many secrets from them.

However, Zhu Guihua was particularly happy to see that she had completely gotten rid of her emotional troubles and started a new life.

"Mom, let's eat."

Ye Qingtao brought stir-fried dishes from the cafeteria to Zhu Guihua and a bowl of lean meat porridge to her father.

My father just had surgery and his appetite may be a little poor. Eating some porridge may help digestion.

And based on her years of medical experience, her father would wake up soon.

Zhu Guihua originally had no appetite, but her daughter kept urging her, so she finally ate half of the lunch box.

Zhu Guihua had just put down the spoon and turned around to see her husband open his eyes.

Ye Yongjin's operation this time was more difficult, so he was given anesthesia for the lower body.

Ye Yongjin was too tired during this period of time and actually fell asleep during the operation.

He was actually conscious after the operation, but his eyelids kept fighting each other, and finally he couldn't help but fall asleep.

He tried to wake up several times, but his mind was still fuzzy and his body was somewhat out of control.

During the operation he seemed to hear a familiar voice.

The three simple words "Let's start" were his first feeling: it was his daughter's voice.

Then he thought about it and felt that it was unlikely, because the doctor had told him that no outsiders were allowed to enter the operating room.

My daughter has never studied medicine, so it was impossible for her to come in during the operation.

Ye Yongjin thought that maybe he had been given too much anesthetic and had hallucinations in his brain, so he heard it wrong.

Now when he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but look at his daughter a few more times.

When Zhu Guihua saw her husband wake up, she immediately shouted excitedly.

"Old Ye, are you awake? How do you feel now? Does your leg still hurt? If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, I'll call a doctor for you."

Zhu Guihua put down the bowl and rushed in front of Ye Yongjin without even having time to wash her hands.

She originally wanted to hold his hand, but she had just finished her meal and had not washed her hands, so her hands were greasy.

She quickly hid her outstretched hand behind her back. Although she didn't hold his hand, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Ye Yongjin felt his wife's concern.

He pursed his lips and smiled slightly, then shook his head.

His throat was dry and he couldn't speak after trying several times.

Ye Qingtao helped Ye Yongjin up and placed two pillows behind him.

"Dad, are you hungry? Do you want some porridge?"

Ye Qingtao asked him if he wanted some porridge, then turned around and poured him a cup of warm water.

Zhu Guihua hurriedly ran out to wash his hands, and when he came back he took the cup from Ye Qingtao's hand.

"I'll come, I'll give your father some water."

Zhu Guihua held his chin with one hand to prevent water from spilling out while he was drinking.

With the other hand, he held the cup and slowly poured the water into his mouth.

Ye Yongjin drank some water and his dry throat felt much better. He coughed lightly twice and was finally able to speak.

"Guihua, I'm fine."

"I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay. Are you hungry? I'll feed you some porridge, okay?"

Ye Yongjin's face was a little pale. He smiled weakly and nodded in agreement.

Ye Qingtao quickly helped open the lunch box and handed the warm porridge to her mother.

Zhu Guihua took the porridge and smiled at him gratefully.

She fed Ye Yongjin mouthful by mouthful with a small spoon.

Ye Qingtao stood aside with a smile, thinking to herself that this might be love.

Although they are an old couple, they care about and love each other and can rely on each other no matter how big the problem is.
