Chapter 1121 Don’t Worry. You’ll Get Better Too
Lu Boyan finished giving the instruction and came back from the director’s office. He happened to meet Song Jiqing.
Before Shen Yuechuan could wake up, Song Jiqing needed to examine his condition regularly every day. When he saw Lu Boyan, he asked in surprise, “Why are you here so early?”
“Jian’an decided it.” Lu Boyan simply explained and then asked, “How is Yuechuan’s condition?”
“It’s very stable.” Speaking of this, Song Jiqing couldn’t help smiling. “If nothing unexpected happens, he will wake up tomorrow at the latest. However, I didn’t tell Yunyun about this. She’s in a good mood, and I don’t have to give her extra expectations in case she’ll overthink it. She will get a surprise if Yuechuan suddenly wakes up tomorrow.”
As they spoke, they entered the suite.
Xiao Yunyun saw Song Jiqing. She narrowed her eyes and smiled brightly. “Good morning, Dr. Song!”
Song Jiqing also smiled and said, “Good morning.”
Xiao Yunyun automatically stepped aside, made a gesture of “please” and said, “Feel free to perform the examination!”
Song Jiqing praised Xiao Yunyun from the bottom of his heart. “Not bad. You’re more and more cooperative.”
Su Jian’an thought for a moment and interrupted, “Dr. Song, I think Yunyun is being very nice to you as well.”
In the past, Xiao Yunyun and Song Jiqing would roast each other, and she would never be so polite to him.
“Well…” Song Jiqing pondered for a moment and continued, “I don’t have much hope about that. When Yuechuan recovers, I believe that Yunyun will still treat me the same way as before.”
Su Jian’an was speechless.
She had never seen any man who mocked himself like that.
Xiao Yunyun patted Song Jiqing’s shoulder with a smile and said, “Dr. Song, don’t worry. I will always be grateful to you!”
“Uh-huh.” Song Jiqing nodded. “I have no doubts about that!”
Xiao Yunyun no longer bothered Song Jiqing.
He quickly finished the examination. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Yuechuan is fine. You can rest a.s.sured and wait with ease before he wakes up.”
Xiao Yunyun played along and nodded obediently. “Okay!”
“I’m leaving now. I’ll come back in the afternoon.” Song Jiqing gave Xiao Yunyun an encouraging look and said, “Keep the review going, little girl. The postgraduate entrance examination will start soon. I hope you can pa.s.s it and continue your studies.”
After Xiao Yunyun went through Yuechuan’s operation, Song Jiqing believed that she would become an excellent doctor.
A long time ago, he had run out of ties with many outstanding doctors.
However, he was happy to see Xiao Yunyun become a doctor who could save patients.
Xiao Yunyun didn’t know what Song Jiqing had expected of her. She looked confident and said firmly, “I will work hard and I will definitely pa.s.s the exam!”
Su Jian’an held Lu Boyan’s hand and said to Xiao Yunyun, “We’re leaving too. Contact us if you need anything.”
“Okay!” Xiao Yunyun said firmly, “Jian’an, don’t worry. Everything will be all right!”
Su Jian’an smiled and left the inpatient building with Lu Boyan.
When she got downstairs, fresh and cold air rushed to her face. She did not feel cold but refreshed.
She took a deep breath and said with emotion, “This is wonderful!”
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows and pretended to ask seriously, “Jian’an, are you talking about me?”
Su Jian’an looked at Lu Boyan for a moment and gave an answer that disappointed him. “No.” After a pause, she continued, “I’m referring to our current situation! Yuechuan has recovered and Yunyun is about to continue her studies. Isn’t that great?”
Unexpectedly, Lu Boyan did not speak.
Su Jian’an thought about it and soon understood why Lu Boyan remained silent.
Maybe it was because of Mu Sijue.
Yuechuan was cured, but Xu Youning was still in the Kang family, and Mu Sijue couldn’t even get in touch with her.
What was worse, her condition was no better than Yuechuan’s.
Mu Sijue had to make a more difficult choice than Yuechuan, and they would accept a greater challenge.
They didn’t know if fate would favor them again next time.
Su Jian’an thought for a moment before she came up to Lu Boyan, looked at him seriously, and said, “Yuechuan’s matter could be dealt with, so is Youning’s. We will all help Sijue.”
“We don’t need to worry too much about Xu Youning’s matter.” Lu Boyan smiled and took Su Jian’an’s hand. “Let’s go home first.”
They got in the car and headed back to Dingya Villas.
Spring had arrived. The scenery from the hospital to the suburbs was very pleasant. Buds grew out of dead branches and flowers bloomed against the sun. Everything was full of vitality.
This seemed to be a good sign.
Su Jian’an secretly told herself that Mu Sijue and Xu Youning would be like this season, full of hope.
“But then again-
“What’s Youning doing at this moment?
“Does she know that Yuechuan had an operation and it was successful?
“If she does, would she be more hopeful? Would her desire to survive become more determined? And would she have more trust in us?”
The answers to Su Jian’an’s questions could all be found in the old house of the Kang family.
The news that Shen Yuechuan’s operation was a success and he made it through the life-and-death challenge was reported wildly by all the major media.
Even those who didn’t know Shen Yuechuan could know about what he encountered through this report.
Kang Ruicheng paid close attention to everyone related to Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue, so he naturally did not miss the news of Yuechuan’s successful operation.
However, this kind of news was not good news for him.
Kang Ruicheng’s face had been gloomy since he read the report. It was already lunchtime, but he just sat at the dining table and did not move the food on it.
Mumu took a mouthful of rice and looked at Kang Ruicheng in confusion. “Daddy, why are you upset again?”
Dongzi happened to be standing next to them. He coughed in a low voice, indicating that Mumu should not continue.
“Okay.” Mumu understood what Dongzi meant. He tilted his head, took another bite of rice, and said, “I’ll eat. I won’t talk.”
Smack!
Kang Ruicheng’s patience reached its limit. He slammed the cutlery on the table and turned to leave the old house.
After Xu Youning and Mumu woke up, they played games in the room and didn’t go downstairs until it was time for a meal. They didn’t know what had happened at all. Watching Kang Ruicheng leave, they looked confused.
However, they were also curious.
Xu Youning still decided to make it clear. She called Ah Guang and said, “Ah Guang, come here.”
Ah Guang was going to leave with Kang Ruicheng. When he heard Xu Youning’s voice, he could only turn around and look at her. “What can I do for you, Ms. Xu?”
“I’m fine.” Xu Youning looked in the direction where Kang Ruicheng left and changed the subject. “But is there something up with Brother Cheng?”
Ah Guang thought for a moment and corrected her. “To be exact, it’s not about him.”
“Are you sure?” Xu Youning pretended to be doubtful and asked slowly, “If he is fine, why would he be in a bad mood?”
Dongzi sighed in distress, hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully, “It’s because of Shen Yuechuan. Just now, all major media outlets reported the same thing – he had an operation, and it was successful. Brother Cheng knew that Shen Yuechuan was seriously ill some time ago, but we missed it…”
Xu Youning looked confused. “Shen Yuechuan’s illness is his own business. What did Brother Cheng have to miss?”
“Ms. Xu, you are also aware that Shen Yuechuan is Lu Boyan’s most capable a.s.sistant,” Dongzi said. “When he was sick, it was originally the best time for us to get rid of him. If he was dealt with, we would get to weaken Lu Boyan’s strength. But now, Shen Yuechuan has survived his operation, and we no longer have that opportunity.”
Xu Youning didn’t say anything.
“Sure enough, Kang Ruicheng still has bad intentions.”
Xu Youning nodded as if nothing had happened. “I see. I’ll leave you to your business now.”
After Dongzi left, Xu Youning and Mumu looked at each other. They put down their cutleries with tacit understanding and returned to the room upstairs.
As soon as they got back to the room, Mumu immediately lost control. He stamped his feet and said, “Auntie Youning, is Uncle Yuechuan really cured? Well, I want to read the report Uncle Dongzi talked about. Please show it to me now!” After a pause, he suddenly realized something. “Well, I can’t read it. You’ll read it to me!”
Xu Youning touched the little kid’s head with a smile and took out her iPad to search for the news.
Just as Dongzi said, all the domestic media had reported the success of Yuechuan’s operation. As soon as she searched for the keywords, she could read all kinds of reports related to the news.
Shen Yuechuan had a good relationship with many media reporters, so the wording of those reports was naturally very kind. Most reports were blessings for him.
“Some people would never receive so many blessings.
“Is that one of the reasons why Kang Ruicheng is so angry?”
However, Xu Youning was not mad at all.
On the contrary, she regarded this as a glimmer of hope.
Mumu was much more excited than Xu Youning. He took Xu Youning’s hand and said happily, “Auntie Youning, read it to me now!”
“No problem!”
Xu Youning held Mumu in her arms with a smile and read the report to him word by word.
After he finished listening to the report, his eyes lit up. He stared at Xu Youning with shining eyes and asked, “So, has Uncle Yuechuan recovered?”
“Uh-huh.” Xu Youning nodded and said, “Sister Yunyun will no longer be sad.”
“That’s great!” Mumu cheered, threw himself into Xu Youning’s arms, and called her in a soft voice. “Auntie Youning, I have something to tell you…”
“Well, I’m listening.” Xu Youning touched the little boy’s head. “Go ahead!”
She had thought that Mumu would say that he was glad or bless Yuechuan and Yunyun. Unexpectedly, the little boy changed the topic.
“Auntie Youning, don’t worry about your condition! You’ll get better like Uncle Yuechuan did!”
