Lin xiaofen decided to have surgery because she still had to wait until her vision recovered to take care of Anranâs child.
Because he knew that Anran was worried about the risks of the operation, su Yicheng promised her that he would use his connections to contact experts in the United States to ensure that the risks of the operation were minimized.
Gu Hengwen had adjusted his class, but because he was teaching the third-year students, he was directly facing the problem of the college entrance examination. After the adjustment, he had several classes in a day without rest. In addition, he had been taking care of Lin xiaofen in the hospital for the past few days. Under such a heavy load, Gu Hengwenâs body couldnât take it. When he stood on the podium in class, his entire body was dizzy and he almost fell on the podium. The students were worried and directly sent him to the hospital. The doctor said it was fatigue. In addition, he also reminded him that at his age, his physique was not as good as it was in the past, so he should pay more attention to rest.
After Lin xiaofen found out, she refused to let him transfer classes to increase her burden. In addition, she didnât allow him to come to the hospital after lunch. Gu Hengwen protested, but his objection was overruled. In the end, under Lin xiaofenâs insistence, Gu Hengwen came to the hospital every night after work to accompany Lin xiaofen.
Anran, on the other hand, had to come over every day, but since she was pregnant, there were many things that were inconvenient for her. Su Yicheng had directly transferred Auntie Zhang over to take care of her. In addition, Qin Yun had also come over a few times, bringing her tonics and the soup that she had personally made. She comforted her to relax and not think too much. In the future, she would still need to help take care of one of the two grandchildren.
Although Lin xiaofen and Qin Yun hadnât really met each other a few times, they felt like old friends at first sight. There were always endless things to say when they met. Lin xiaofen seemed to be in a particularly good mood when the two of them talked and laughed. When she was in a good mood, her complexion looked good, and her face didnât look sickly anymore. She didnât look like a patient at all.
Anran still had to come to the hospital every day, but because she was pregnant, Lin xiaofen strictly controlled her time and didnât allow her to stay in the hospital for too long. Although Anran wanted to spend more time with her mother, because of the child in her stomach, she could only follow the arrangement. She came in the afternoon every day, then stayed in the hospital for one or two hours to talk to her mother. Then, in the evening, su Yicheng would come to pick her up and take her home.
Su Yichengâs punishment hadnât been officially announced yet, but due to the urgency of the technology City case, in addition to the recent big shock in the municipal Party Committee, many things still had to be temporarily taken care of by su Yicheng. However, in view of the scandal with the nude photos sect, as well as the matter with Ling Chuanjiang and Tong Wenhai, the Provincial Party Committee had assigned someone else to handle the construction of Technology City in order to prevent some people from monopolizing the power. This way, su Yicheng had taken over half of the work in his hands. In the eyes of outsiders, he had been stripped of his power, but su Yicheng himself was quite satisfied. This way, his workload was reduced by more than half, so he could take out more time and energy every day to accompany Anran and the child.
After dealing with the work at hand, su Yicheng directly left his office and drove to the hospital. He didnât go to Lin xiaofenâs ward first, but went directly to Lin xiaofenâs attending doctorâs office. When he arrived, Doctor Zhang still had a patient, so he didnât disturb him. He nodded at Doctor Zhang, then backed out and stood at the door to wait.
A few minutes later, when the patientâs family member came out of the office, su Yicheng pushed the door open and went in. Doctor Zhang nodded at him and asked him to sit down on the chair in front of his desk. Recently, he had gotten used to su Yicheng coming to the hospital to ask him about Lin xiaofenâs condition. At first, he felt a little uncomfortable and uneasy. After all, his identity did indeed make people feel a little pressured, but as he came more and more, he got used to it.
âItâs really stressful for Mayor su to come here so often.â Doctor Zhang said jokingly.
âDirector Zhang, just treat me as a normal family member of a patient.â Su Yicheng simply said indifferently, â Iâm just here to ask about my mother-in-lawâs condition. &Quot;
Doctor Zhang smiled and nodded. As he took out Lin xiaofenâs medical records from the document column, he casually said, â &Quot; yes, those who donât know better would think that the patient is Mayor SUâs mother. &Quot;
......
âShe is my mother.â Su Yicheng said with a serious expression.
Doctor Zhang was taken aback. He immediately felt that he had misspoken, so he could only force a smile and say, âYes, yes, yes, look at me, Iâm getting old and I donât know how to speak anymore.â She suddenly recalled the âmayorâs nude photo incidentâ that had been widely circulated on the internet and newspapers. Many netizens had expressed their doubts about the policeâs conclusion, saying that they were just using official statements in order to protect su Yichengâs image, and that the specific details had yet to be investigated. However, at this moment, he felt that the so-called âofficial statementâ might be the whole story. How could a man who treated his mother-in-law as his biological parents and loved his wife so much that he couldnât bear to see his wife cry really do something behind his wifeâs back that would let his wife and family down?
After flipping through Lin xiaofenâs medical records, Doctor Zhang spoke from his professional point of view, â â When I did the power test on her this morning, I found that her vision had obviously deteriorated. This means that the tumor in her brain has already pressed on her optic nerve. The operation should be imminent. â
Su Yicheng furrowed his brows and asked,âhave you contacted the hospital in America?â
Doctor Zhang nodded and said, â yes, I received an email last night. Iâve already asked the people over there to arrange the hospital beds and consultation hours for the specialists. As expected, if everything is ready on your side, you can leave at any time this week. I can also send the medical records over here. &Quot;
&Quot; alright, Iâll have to trouble director Zhang to make the arrangements. Iâll let my mother-in-law know today. &Quot; Su Yicheng stood up and said politely.
âI should.â Director Zhang nodded and stood up to see him out.
When he arrived at su Yicheng and Lin xiaofenâs ward, Anran was sitting in front of the bed and happily talking and laughing with Lin xiaofen. She didnât even notice him when he pushed the door open and entered.
âAnran, turn on the lights.â Suddenly, Lin xiaofen, who was lying on the hospital bed, smiled and said to Anran.
Anran froze and turned to look out the window. It wasnât dark yet, and the sun hadnât set yet, so it was still bright outside. She looked at her mother in a daze and asked, â âMom, are you alright?â
Lin xiaofen was taken aback by the question. She subconsciously reached out to touch her face and said, â &Quot; What do you mean whatâs wrong? is there something on my face? â
âNo, no, you said to turn on the lights.â The panic in her heart was a little exaggerated, and an ranâs big eyes stared at her mother.
âWhen itâs dark, youâll have to turn on the lights.â Lin xiaofen didnât mind. She suddenly thought of something and asked, â âBy the way, is ah Zhen very busy today? why hasnât she come over yet?â
&Quot; mom! &Quot; Anran wanted to say something, but she was interrupted by su Yicheng, who came in at that moment.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAn ran.â Su Yicheng spoke and gave her a look, indicating that she should not speak. Then, he turned his head to look at Lin xiaofen on the bed and said, â âYeah, I was a little busy in the office today, so I came late.â âMom, how do you feel today? do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?â she asked.
âNo, no, Iâm fine. I can even be discharged now. Youâre just too nervous.â She followed the sound and looked in su Yichengâs direction, but she could only roughly see su Yichengâs position, and it was very blurry. She sighed in her heart and knew that her vision was getting worse and worse. When she did the vision test in the morning, she almost couldnât see anything that Doctor Zhang had pointed out to her, and she had to rely on her own wild guesses.
Anran looked at her mother with wide eyes, then turned her head to look at su Yicheng, who was standing next to her. Su Yicheng knew the panic in her heart, so he only reached out to Pat her hand.
Perhaps she was afraid that they would see through her, so Lin xiaofen smiled and chased them away. She said, â &Quot; you guys should go back quickly. Anran is pregnant, so donât stay in the hospital all the time. There are many germs here. &Quot;
Anran tried her best to make her voice sound normal. She smiled and said, â âI just want to spend more time with you.â
âIâm not a child, I donât need you to accompany me.â Lin xiaofen said unhappily, â Anran, youâre going to be a mother in the future. You have to think more about your child. From tomorrow onwards, donât come to the hospital. &Quot;
&Quot; mom ... &Quot; Anran dragged out the last syllable to protest.
âThereâs no room for discussion.â Lin xiaofen said with a firm attitude.
Anran still wanted to say something, but su Yicheng raised his hand and interrupted her.
Su Yicheng walked up to Lin xiaofen and said, â â Mom, I went to director Zhangâs place when I just came. He said that he has contacted the hospitals and experts in the United States. We can go there directly after he has made the arrangements. â
Without waiting for Lin xiaofen to answer, Anran looked at su Yicheng in surprise and asked, â âReally?â
Su Yicheng smiled at her and nodded with certainty.
âThatâs great. Iâll go over with mom.â Anran only wanted to remove the tumor in her motherâs head as soon as possible so that her mother could be healthy again. In the future, she could accompany her child when she was born and grow up with her child. She could also talk to her when she was troubled and confused.
After a long while, Lin xiaofen, who was lying on the bed, said, â âThen, are you going abroad?â
âYes.â Su Yicheng nodded. â The specialists and hospitals are the best in the United States, â he explained. â Theyâre also the best in the world. â Even open-head surgeries were risky, and he could only try his best to minimize the risk.
âWhy donât we just do it in China? why did you come all the way here?â Lin xiaofen said. Under the blanket that su Yicheng and Anran couldnât see, her two hands clenched tightly.
âMom, go abroad. The Americans are very experienced in this kind of surgery.â An ran stepped forward and put her hand on her blanket.
Lin xiaofen looked at Anran and tried very hard, but she couldnât see Anranâs face clearly. âLet me think about it,â he said. It was because she knew that this kind of surgery was risky that she didnât want to go abroad. If something really happened abroad, she would never be able to return to her roots.
Anran still wanted to persuade him, but su Yicheng shook his head and didnât say anything in the end.
&Quot; Yes, Mom, you should think about it. Thereâs no rush. &Quot; Su Yicheng only said this.
Lin xiaofen nodded. Then, she raised her head and forced a smile as she looked at them and said, â Alright, alright. You guys can go back now. If you donât go back now, itâll really be too late. &Quot;
Su Yicheng nodded. &Quot; okay. &Quot;
He held Anranâs hand and walked out of the ward. When they reached the elevator, Anran turned to look at him and asked, â âHas momâs condition worsened?â It was clearly daytime, but she said she wanted to turn on the lights. It could be imagined how bad her motherâs vision was.
Su Yicheng didnât hide it from her, because he knew that this matter couldnât be hidden at all. He simply nodded and said, â âDirector Zhang said that momâs condition canât be delayed any longer. If itâs delayed any longer, sheâll really lose all her sight.â
Hearing this, an ranâs expression dimmed, and her face was full of worry.
Su Yicheng knew how worried and scared she was, so he opened his arms and pulled her into his arms, then lowered his head to kiss the center of her hair and said, â âAlright, donât worry. Itâll be fine.â
Anran glanced at him, pursed her lips, and nodded. &Quot; yes. &Quot;
As the two of them passed by the garden downstairs, su Yichengâs cell phone suddenly rang at this time. It was a call from the policeâs criminal investigation Captain, Captain Wu. Su Yicheng immediately answered the call. &Quot; Hello, Captain Wu? â
Anran stopped in her tracks and waited for him to finish his call. Then, she turned her head to look at the flowers in the flower bed in the distance. Because of Lin xiaofenâs matter, she looked a little depressed at the moment.
âWhat!â She didnât know what Captain Wu said on the other end of the phone, but su Yichengâs expression changed drastically, and he couldnât help but raise his voice.
Anran was a little frightened by him and turned to look at him worriedly.
Su Yicheng only smiled at her, but his brows were still tightly furrowed. He said into the phone, â âIâm in the hospital.â Then, the person on the other end of the phone said something and hung up.
After he hung up, Anran asked worriedly, â âWhat happened?â
Not wanting Anran to worry, su Yicheng shook his head and only said, â &Quot; itâs fine, Anran. Why donât you go back to see mom? I still have something to do here. Iâll pick you up after Iâm done. &Quot;
Anran looked at him worriedly. &Quot; are you really okay? â He didnât look like he was fine.
Su Yicheng ruffled her hair. &Quot; Iâm fine. &Quot;
Anran didnât ask any more questions. She knew that he didnât want her to worry, and she believed that he was really fine.
He sent her back to Lin xiaofenâs ward, but while waiting for the elevator, su Yicheng seemed to have seen something and nervously said to Anran, â Anran, you go ahead first. Iâll come and pick you up later. &Quot; With that, she ran to the side of the corridor.
Anran stared blankly in the direction he ran off in, and her brows furrowed slightly. Although she believed that she could handle it, she still felt a little worried and scared for no reason.
The elevator arrived with a ding, and the two closed iron door slowly opened. When she saw the person standing inside, Anran was a little stunned, and the person inside was also a little surprised and surprised to see Anran outside.
Anran didnât expect to run into Dong Xiaoxiao here. They hadnât seen each other since the time she came to the ward to make a scene. It was a surprise to see her here today.
Tong Xiaojie, who was sitting opposite him, was also a little surprised. She was stunned for a while before stepping out of the elevator.
Anran looked away and was about to walk past her to enter the elevator, but she was stopped by her when she passed her.
âWait a moment.â Tong Xiaojie called out to her. âCan we have a talk?â
