Outside the operating room, Qin Xiao had been standing for an unknown amount of ti. He only knew he was staring intently at the light above the operating room, hoping it would go out soon so Xiao Li could co out of the operating room sooner...
At ho, Qin’s mother glanced at her watch and noted it was half an hour later than usual. She found it odd that Qin Xiao and the others hadn’t co ho for dinner yet. Was the hospital busy?
Since Qin’s mother and the others arrived, Xiao Li’s als have mostly been ho-cooked.
If Xiao Li had ti to co ho, she would be brought back by Qin Xiao.
If Xiao Li was too busy to co ho today, Qin Xiao would take food to the hospital for her.
Today’s situation was the first ti neither Xiao Li nor Qin Xiao had co ho nor taken any food.
Qin’s mother picked up her phone to call Qin Xiao, but no one answered despite several attempts. Calling Xiao Li was even worse as her phone was directly turned off.
This made Qin’s mother feel a sudden unease...
She called out anxiously, "Old Qin, Old Qin..."
Qin’s father was beside her playing cards on his phone. Hearing the call, he looked up, "What’s up?"
Qin’s mother said angrily, "What’s up? Can you see what ti it is now?
Xiao Li hasn’t co back yet. I just called Xiao several tis, and he didn’t answer. I called Xiao Li, and her phone is off.
Do you think sothing happened?"
Qin’s father replied indifferently, "They’re at the hospital, what could happen?
Maybe they’re just busy now.
Last ti, Xiao Li went into the operating room to observe surgery, and she also turned off her phone.
As for Xiao, you know your son; he’ll answer if he’s not busy. Wait a bit and try again..."
Upon hearing this, Qin’s mother also began to feel she might have overreacted, so she picked up her phone and started calling again...
At the entrance to the operating room, Dai Zihan, Feng Qing, and Xiao Wenjing had heard the news and arrived.
They asked Qin Xiao questions but received no answers, so they quietly stood by and waited.
When Qin Xiao’s phone rang once more, Feng Qing reminded him, "Professor Qin, your phone has been ringing..."
At these words, Qin Xiao remained unmoving until the door to the operating room opened and a nurse erged carrying a baby, "Dr. Qin, the baby has been brought out. It’s a girl, but due to being premature, she’ll need a few days in an incubator.
Dr. Xiao’s surgery is still ongoing, so it might be a while..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao looked down at the baby in the nurse’s arms; she was the child he had with Nini.
After speaking, the nurse left with the baby; she was fragile just after being born and couldn’t be delayed...
In the operating room, Xiao Li was not doing well; she was losing too much blood, and her heart rate was poor.
The doctor monitoring the machines spoke quickly upon seeing the low blood oxygen saturation, and the operating surgeon imdiately ordered blood and oxygen transfusions...
At ho, initially unconcerned, Qin’s father grew anxious after another hour without being able to contact them.
The couple deliberated and decided to go straight to the hospital. Once there, they learned Xiao Li was in trouble and hurried to the operating room...
Upon reaching the operating room, they saw Qin Xiao covered in blood standing there. Qin’s mother anxiously asked, "Xiao, how is Xiao Li?"
Qin Xiao didn’t speak, as if in his world there was only Xiao Li in the operating room and nothing else...
Seeing this, Feng Qing approached Qin’s mother, "Auntie, Xiao Li is still undergoing surgery. The baby has just been brought out and sent to the incubator."
Upon hearing this, Qin’s mother staggered slightly, thinking about how Xiao Li must be severely injured for the baby to be born prematurely...
Seeing Qin’s mother’s unsteady posture, Qin’s father quickly supported her, "Don’t worry, I’ll call top doctors from our hospital imdiately..."
Qin’s mother shook her head, "What’s the use? They won’t get here right away. This is the first hospital in S City, their dical team won’t be poor. I just feel sorry for Xiao Li, suffering this while pregnant..."
Ti went by as the group anxiously waited, several hours passed, and finally, around eight o’clock in the evening, Xiao Li was pushed out of the operating room.
But although she was out of surgery, she was still sent to the ICU for twenty-four-hour observation...
When Xiao Li was pushed out of the operating room, Qin Xiao finally moved, silently following the dical trolley to the ICU, where he quietly watched Xiao Li lying in the hospital bed through the glass...
Seeing this, Qin’s mother approached, "Xiao, Xiao Li is out. Do you want to wash up and change clothes? You’re covered in blood, if you get a chance to visit Xiao Li in the ICU later, it’s not good to go in like this!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao’s eyes flickered slightly, then he silently left.
About half an hour later, he returned, having changed his clothes.
Inside the ICU, Qin Xiao dressed in sterile clothing, walked over to Xiao Li, and held her icy cold hand, his heart aching intensely.
The one he cherished in his heart was now so vulnerable, weakly lying here...
With that thought, a glint of coldness flashed in Qin Xiao’s eyes...
After Qin Xiao erged from the ICU, his emotions had cald, aside from the slight chill he emitted...
Qin Xiao approached Qin’s father and mother, "Dad, Mom, you should go ho. I’ll stay here and watch over them."
Qin’s mother sighed, "There’s nothing to do at ho, better to stay here and at least watch Xiao Li, it calms my heart.
Xiao, now that Xiao Li is temporarily fine, don’t put yourself under too much pressure..."
Qin Xiao nodded, "I know."
Qin’s father patted Qin Xiao’s shoulder, "And what about the person who attacked with a knife today?"
Qin Xiao shook his head, "I haven’t looked into it yet, probably at the station."
Qin’s father nodded, "Let make a couple of calls to so old friends to have them keep a close eye on this."
Qin Xiao shook his head, "Dad, I’ll handle it myself, you don’t need to get involved..."
Just as the three were talking, Feng Qing and the others returned from checking on the baby. As soon as she ca back, Feng Qing said to Qin’s mother, "Auntie, the baby is fine, don’t worry."
Just because Qin Xiao had left earlier, Qin’s mother didn’t want to leave Xiao Li’s side, nor did she dare to move away, while still concerned about her granddaughter in the incubator, so she entrusted Feng Qing and the others to go and check...
Qin’s mother nodded, "That’s good, you’ve tired yourselves out all day. Now both sides are stable, there’s no need to have so many people here, you should all go ho and rest."
Feng Qing and the others shook their heads...
Dai Zihan replied, "Auntie, we’re used to working night shifts at the hospital, Xiao Li is a dear sister to us. Even if you let us go ho, we couldn’t rest easy. Better to stay and watch over her.
I know if I were to ask Auntie to go ho and rest now, you wouldn’t agree, but staying up all night isn’t good, given your age.
If Xiao Li knew, she certainly wouldn’t agree to you and uncle staying up all night here...
So, you and uncle should go ho and rest for a bit!"
