Dr. Zhang looked at Xiao Yunyunâs X-ray and sighed, âMiss Xiaoâs hand is not recovering well.â
Shen Yuechuan stared at the doctor fiercely, as if he planned to force the doctor to come up with a cure for Xiao Yunyunâs injury.
However, after a long time, Dr. Zhang still didnât speak.
Shen Yuechuan finally understood that Dr. Zhang, who was one of the best orthopedists in the country, really had no way.
There was no certain answer to whether Xiao Yunyun could use the scalpel with her right hand in the future.
âDr. Zhang, what should we do next?â Shen Yuechuan clenched his fists, and said in a hoarse and restrained voice.
âYunyunâs hand must recover by all means.â
At that moment, Shen Yuechuan understood what it meant to feel powerless.
In order to become a doctor, Xiao Yunyun had paid more than anyone could imagine.
If her only dream was ruined...
Shen Yuechuan didnât dare to imagine it anymore.
What he hated most was that, apart from listening to the doctorâs arrangements, he could not help Xiao Yunyun more at all.
He couldnât bear the pain for Xiao Yunyun, and he couldnât let her hand recover either.
âContact the experts for a consultation as soon as possible.â Dr. Zhang shook his head and added, âAccording to Miss Xiaoâs current situation, you shouldnât delay it anymore.â
Hearing this, Xiao Yunyun covered her mouth and lost all her courage. She fled back to the ward in a panic like a deserter.
Su Jianâan had told her that her right hand was seriously injured, but it would slowly recover; she needed to wait patiently.
It turned out that Su Jianâan did not tell her the truth.
Her right hand... was so seriously injured that even the department director could do nothing about it.
How did this happen? How could this happen?
She was a doctor, a cardiac surgeon who would be accompanied by scalpels in her career. If her hand could not recover, how could she pick up the scalpels to save people in the future?
Xiao Yunyun touched the injury on her right hand with her left hand. She was in so much pain that she almost burst into tears.
No, she couldnât cry. The reason why Shen Yuechuan and Su Jianâan hid it from her was that they didnât want her to break down or feel sad.
Shen Yuechuan and Dr. Zhang were trying to find a cure for her. She couldnât cry. She couldnât give up.
Xiao Yunyun closed her eyes hard, endured the heartache and tears, sustained the overwhelming sadness, and forced herself to calm down.
She often told the patients to be optimistic, follow the treatment plan, and be hopeful about their recovery.
Now, it was time for her to take the advice.
She was a doctor. She couldnât do worse than the patients, could she?
As soon as Xiao Yunyun finally calmed down, the door was pushed open. Shen Yuechuan came in with meal boxes in his hand. He looked the same as usual, and as soon as he came in, he asked her, âAre you hungry?â
Xiao Yunyun looked at him and shook her head with a smile.
Shen Yuechuan was a little surprised. He carefully looked at Xiao Yunyun and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
In the past, when he came back from work, Xiao Yunyun would either pester him and cry that she was hungry, complain that she was too bored in the ward, or complain that the food he bought that day was not to her taste.
In brief, she would never stop talking to him.
Shen Yuechuan was not used to her being a fair lady.
âShen Yuechuan, when will I be discharged from the hospital?â Xiao Yunyun said in a muffled and hopeful voice.
Shen Yuechuan put down the meal boxes, sat down, and looked at Xiao Yunyun. âDo you want to be discharged from the hospital?â
Xiao Yunyun nodded. âI want to go home, and...â Before finishing her words, she suddenly lowered her head.
â...â Shen Yuechuan was more patient than ever. He led Xiao Yunyun to go on with her words. âAnd?â
Xiao Yunyun looked up and stared at Shen Yuechuan with red eyes. âI miss my parents.â
The doctor once told Shen Yuechuan that at the middle stage of the recovery, Xiao Yunyun might be in a bad mood because she had stayed in the hospital for a long time, and that they needed to comfort her and cheer her up, so that she could continue to accept the treatment.
Shen Yuechuan held Xiao Yunyunâs hand. âYour parents still donât know that you had a car accident. Are you sure you want to tell them?â
After that discussion, Su Yicheng decided not to tell Su Yunjin about Xiao Yunyunâs injury for the time being until he was sure that Xiao Yunyunâs right hand could be cured.
If Su Yunjin was informed now, she and Xiao Guoshan could do nothing but be worried.
Xiao Yunyun looked into Shen Yuechuanâs eyes and quickly calmed down. She shook her head and said, âForget it. Iâll tell them when I recover.â
Shen Yuechuan opened the meal boxes and let Xiao Yunyun have dinner.
Whether it was a coincidence or Shen Yuechuanâs intention, he ordered Xiao Yunyunâs favorite dishes today.
âHave some soup after the dishes.â Shen Yuechuan served a bowl of soup to cool it down. He said, âAuntie Tang cooked it for you personally. Auntie Liu just brought it here.â
Xiao Yunyun was not obedient. She took a sip of the soup first and nodded with satisfaction. âIt was indeed cooked by Auntie Tang personally. The analysis is over!â
Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows and asked, âYou can taste it?â
âOf course.â Xiao Yunyun wiped the corners of her mouth and said proudly, âAuntie Tang would cook thick soup, while my cousin pays more attention to the ingredientsâ nutrition arrangement, and the chef in my cousin-in-lawâs house likes to make fish soupâbut I donât like fish soup very much.â In the end, she concluded, âEveryone makes different soup. Do you want me to teach you how to distinguish them?â
â...â Shen Yuechuan handed the soup to her. âNo need. Drink it.â
He suddenly had a feeling that if he stayed in the hospital any longer, Xiao Yunyun would become an expert in delicacies.
Xiao Yunyun perfectly concealed her disappointment and sadness in this way. Shen Yuechuan also believed that she was just in a bad mood because she had been in the hospital for a long time. He didnât carefully think about her sudden tears.
The next day, Su Jianâan finally had time to come to the hospital with Luo Xiaoxi and asked if Xiao Yunyunâs wound still hurt.
âIt hurts a little from time to time, but much better than at the beginning.â Xiao Yunyun tried to move her fractured right leg. âLook, I can move now. I can get out of bed and walk a few steps.â
âThatâs good,â Su Jianâan said, âit will take one hundred days for fractures to recover. Take your time to recover in the next few months, and just take it as a vacation.â
Luo Xiaoxi pinched Xiao Yunyunâs face and said, âBy the way, letâs see if you can gain some weight.â
Su Jianâan and Luo Xiaoxi had a tacit understanding. Neither of them mentioned the injury on Xiao Yunyunâs right hand.
Only then did Xiao Yunyun remember that Su Jianâan and Luo Xiaoxi seemed to have always been concerned about whether her right leg still hurt, whether the sprain of her left leg had recovered, and when the stitches would be removed from her forehead...
But they had never mentioned her right hand. They would only comfort her when she complained about the pain in her right hand and then say something else to distract her attention.
She was so careless that she had never paid attention to these small details.
Shen Yuechuan worked overtime in the afternoon and came back very late. When he opened the door, he found Xiao Yunyun sitting on the bed in a daze. It was obvious that she had something on her mind.
Xiao Yunyun was so careless that she could be optimistic about a very big deal.
For the first time, Shen Yuechuan had seen her like this.
His intuition told him that something was wrong.
Shen Yuechuan knocked on the door and walked into the ward. âDid Jianâan and Xiaoxi come today?â
Xiao Yunyun came back to her senses, only to find that Shen Yuechuan had been back. She forced a smile and said, âYeah, my cousin also brought me the snacks she made herself.â As she said that, she reached out her hands to Shen Yuechuan, just like a child who wanted to be held by an adult.
Shen Yuechuan looked at her and asked, âWhat are you doing?â
âI want to take a shower.â Xiao Yunyun urged, âHurry up and pick me up.â
After she was hospitalized, Xiao Yunyun used all kinds of shameless means. Although she could already go to the bathroom with her crutch, as long as Shen Yuechuan came back, she would immediately become a paralyzed child. As long as she could ask Shen Yuechuan for help, she would never trouble herself. She would find all kinds of reasons to ask Shen Yuechuan to hold her. Today, she directly reached out her hands.
Shen Yuechuan had no choice but to carry her into the bathroom.
Xiao Yunyun put her sound left arm around Shen Yuechuanâs neck and leaned against his chest, like an obedient little animal that tried to warm itself.
Perhaps because of the warmth from her body, Shen Yuechuan clearly felt that the beating heart in his chest was becoming soft little by little.
Since Xiao Yunyun was hospitalized, he had been lowering his bottom line against her.
He didnât know if it was because he felt guilty, or it was because of some even more complicated reasons that he didnât dare to face.
After the shower, Xiao Yunyun said early that she was sleepy. Shen Yuechuan heated a glass of milk and handed it to her. âGo to sleep after you finish it.â
After drinking the milk and gargling, Xiao Yunyun got into the quilt early and fell asleep.
Shen Yuechuan dealt with some matters on his computer, and soon lay down and fell asleep.
Perhaps she had gone to bed too early, Xiao Yunyun woke up very early today. She opened her eyes at two oâclock in the morning, and miraculously, she didnât feel sleepy at all.
She sat up and looked at Shen Yuechuan, who was sleeping on the bed for the caregiver.
No matter how much Shen Yuechuan had done to her before she was hospitalized, he was unquestionably nice to her after she was hospitalized. Most of the time, he knew that she was messing around, but he still allowed her to do so.
He must pity her. He was afraid that she would break down upon knowing the injury on her right hand, so during her recuperation, he let her do whatever she wanted and treated her unquestionably well.
Xiao Yunyun looked down and tried to lift the kettle from the bedside table with her right hand.
She had taken the scalpel and performed the resection operation with her right hand, but she could do nothing to a kettle that was less than 1,000 grams at the moment.
Xiao Yunyun didnât want to give up. She wanted to try again, but her right hand seemed to be drained of strength, and she couldnât exert any strength at all.
She was about to try for the third time when Shen Yuechuanâs voice came through the night.
âDonât try anymore. The wound will hurt.â
Xiao Yunyun was stunned and looked at the bed for the caregiver. Shen Yuechuan, who was soundly sleeping just now, woke up at some point and was standing by her bed and looking at her.
The thick darkness of the night covered Shen Yuechuanâs eyes, but she felt that there must be sympathy in his eyes.
She wanted Shen Yuechuan. She wanted everything about him.
But she did not want his sympathy and pity.
Xiao Yunyun let go of the kettle and took back her hand. She was about to say something when Shen Yuechuan came over and asked, âDo you know it?â
After he came back today, Shen Yuechuan found that there was something wrong with Xiao Yunyun. In addition, she suddenly cried yesterday and said that she missed her family. Before he saw her cry, he happened to talk to Dr. Zhang about her injury...
Shen Yuechuan couldnât help thinking of something when there were so many coincidences.
