Upon hearing this, Pei Mingzhu felt a chill run down her spine, and her body almost stopped moving; she couldn't even move an inch.
Her face was pale, and she shook her head with difficulty, saying to Pei Fengzhi.
"I...I don't need it...I don't need these..."
Pei Mingzhu kept a wary eye on Pei Fengzhi, afraid that he would actually do it.
After all, in Pei Mingzhu's impression, Pei Fengzhi was always a man of his word; he would always do what he said.
Moreover, Pei Fengzhi doesn't seem to be in a good mood right now.
Pei Mingzhu dared not provoke the other party again.
When Pei Fengzhi closed his eyes again, Pei Mingzhu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her body went limp, and she staggered to the side, afraid that Pei Fengzhi might get upset and have the doctor give her an injection so she would fall asleep.
She wanted to be by her daughter's side at all times, and no matter whether the surgery turned out well or badly, she wanted to be there for Fang Ruotang.
finally.
After waiting for almost two more hours, as the sun slowly rose into the sky and the morning sunlight shone faintly into the warm and humid hospital corridor through the windows, the red "Operating" sign above the operating room finally jumped.
The red color turned green.
The phrase "in surgery" has been changed to "surgery completed".
The operating room door was pushed open.
A nurse walked quickly out of the operating room.
Upon seeing this, Pei Mingzhu immediately rushed over, grabbed the nurse's arm, and asked in a tense and fearful voice, almost breaking her voice.
"Nurse... my daughter... how is my daughter? How is she? Was the surgery successful?"
The nurse was in excruciating pain from Pei Mingzhu's grip. Her face beneath the mask was deathly pale, and fine beads of sweat had appeared on her forehead. She tried to struggle but, due to the prolonged surgery, she was too weak to break free from Pei Mingzhu's grasp.
The nurse said in a hoarse voice, sounding distressed.
"Miss Pei, please let go of me! You're hurting me!"
Miss Pei, however, seemed not to hear her words and kept asking the questions she wanted to know.
Fortunately, the personal assistant who had just gone out to pour water for Miss Pei rushed over. Upon seeing the scene, she immediately reacted, rushed over to support Pei Mingzhu, carefully pried open Pei Mingzhu's hand that was gripping the nurse's arm, and rescued the nurse from Pei Mingzhu's grasp. She then spoke politely to the nurse.
"Nurse, I'm so sorry, my daughter is just so worried about my mistress. I wonder how she is doing? Could we go and check on her?"
The nurse rubbed her numb and aching arm, her tone somewhat indifferent.
"The surgery is over and it was successful, but the patient still needs to get through a critical 48-hour period during which no one is allowed to visit. That's the rule."
Pei Mingzhu had tears in her eyes.
"What?! A critical period of 48 hours? That's so long? What if she doesn't make it through that period? What will happen to my daughter?"
"Tangtang! I need to see her, I need to see her right now!"
"..."
Pei Mingzhu looked at the operating room behind the nurse and quickly tried to run into it.
"Tangtang!"
Upon seeing this, the nurse immediately stepped forward and blocked Pei Mingzhu's path, pressing her shoulders with both hands to prevent her from taking another step forward.
She frowned and spoke to Pei Mingzhu with extreme sternness.
"Stop! You can't go in!"
Pei Mingzhu raised her head, her eyes, brimming with tears, turning a crimson hue. She glared coldly at the nurse in front of her and roared at her fiercely.
"Get out of my way! Do you know who I am? I am Pei Mingzhu, the eldest daughter of the Pei family. You dare to block my way? Believe me, I'll make sure you pack your bags and get out of here right now, and you won't be able to stay in the entire Jiangcheng!"
The nurse was furious when Pei Mingzhu scolded her like that.
There are so many unreasonable family members these days, but what if she's the eldest daughter of the Pei family, daring to make a scene at the entrance of the operating room?
Who's afraid of who?!
The nurse shoved Pei Mingzhu away and coldly warned her.
"No one is allowed in the operating room! Please leave! Otherwise I will call security!"
Seeing this, Pei Mingzhu's personal assistant quickly stepped forward to help the nurse restrain Pei Mingzhu.
But Pei Mingzhu was like a madwoman, struggling desperately and refusing to leave no matter what anyone said, insisting on going in to see Fang Ruotang.
At that moment, the sliding door of the operating room opened automatically from the inside.
The air suddenly went still, and Pei Mingzhu stared wide-eyed at the automatic door of the operating room that was opening.
The nurse also looked back with some confusion.
The automatic door to the operating room finally opened, and Pei Fengzhi carried Ye Ningwan, who was exhausted and weak, out of the operating room.
When things were in chaos outside the operating room, no one noticed when Pei Fengzhi went in.
The nurse was taken aback.
Suddenly, Pei Mingzhu, who was blocked in front of her, pointed at Pei Fengzhi and shouted loudly.
"Didn't you say that no one can just walk in? Then what happened to him? How did he get in?"
The nurse was speechless for a moment.
She couldn't very well say it was because Pei Fengzhi was the sole investor in the hospital, could she?
However, at this moment, Ye Ningwan, who was being held in Pei Fengzhi's arms, gently opened her eyes and glanced indifferently at Pei Mingzhu, who was shouting and yelling at the door of the operating room.
"Pei Mingzhu, if you don't want Fang Ruotang to live, then keep causing trouble!"
Ye Ningwan's voice was so gentle, and her words were so soft, yet she sounded slightly tired.
But to Pei Mingzhu, these words were like a chilling lightning bolt striking from a clear sky, shattering all her irritability, anger, and fear. She just stood there, stunned, staring at Ye Ningwan, her eyes filled with tears, but she couldn't utter a single word.
Pei Fengzhi gave Pei Mingzhu a cold look, then picked up Ye Ningwan and prepared to leave.
But the next second, Pei Mingzhu, who had been trying to avoid Pei Fengzhi, suddenly rushed up, grabbed Ye Ningwan's arm, and asked Ye Ningwan in a hoarse voice.
"Can you tell me how Tangtang is doing now?"
She noticed the hint of indifference and impatience in Pei Fengzhi's cool eyes, but she still mustered her courage and spoke to Ye Ningwan almost pleadingly.
Please, tell me, okay?
Ye Ningwan said wearily.
"Once she gets through the critical 48-hour period, she'll be fine."
After saying this, just a second before Pei Fengzhi was about to explode, Ye Ningwan looked up, reached out and hugged Pei Fengzhi's neck, leaned against his chest, and whispered.
"I'm tired, carry me back."
