Chapter 1424: The Intensive Care Unit!
Old Mr. Mo was sent to the Intensive Care Unit where Wen Xinya stood by the gla.s.s window and looked at Old Mr. Mo who was lying on the bed motionlessly. Tears welled up in her eyes and she could not help but cry. Old Mr. Mo looked like he had aged ten years, nothing like the healthy man he was after Wen Xinya took meticulous care of his health.
His hair was was all gray and white, and his face was pale and haggard. He looked exactly the same as he was during his last moments in her previous lifetime.
The emergency rescue was a tough battle for Old Mr. Mo!
“Grampy…” She teared up as she felt a lump in her throat.
Old Mr. Mo had already had a tough life and yet, he still had to battle a sickness during his older years.
At this moment, Du s.h.i.+nan walked towards them, appearing extremely fatigued.
Wen Xinya finally realized that the Grandpa Du whom she respected the most had cried terribly like an aggrieved girl.
“Grandpa Du, my Grampy…”
Although the doctor said that Old Mr. Mo’s life was no longer in danger, she was still feeling rather uncertain.
Du s.h.i.+nan patted her on the shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, your Grampy will be fine with me around.”
This time, he tried to save Old Mr. Mo using Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture techniques which provided crucial help. It was also proven that the combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine would sometimes lead to unexpected effects, thus giving him more confidence in treating Old Mr. Mo’s condition.
Wen Xinya finally felt a huge sense of relief, as if a boulder had been lifted off her chest. Although Traditional Chinese Medicine was conservative, Traditional Chinese Medicine pract.i.tioners were usually more clear about the structure of the human body while Western medicine pract.i.tioners were much more conscientious with handling a patient’s body. Old Mr. Du’s words meant that Old Mr. Mo had already pulled out of danger.
Xu Zhenyu and the rest were greatly relieved to hear that Old Mr. Mo’s life was out of danger too, and they felt genuinely touched and overjoyed.
“Heaven has watched over Old Mr. Mo and ensured that he’s alright,” said Xu Tongxuan, who burst into tears of joy. She placed her palms together and acted like she was thanking Heaven.
Xu Tongxuan was put on an emotional rollercoaster throughout the incident and she could not help but feel thankful and fortunate to hear that his life was safe for now.
Du Ruo stopped crying and smiled. “Grandpa Mo is the best person in this world. I knew he would be fine.”
Du Ruo was extremely pure and she had always thought that people like Old Mr. Mo would definitely live a long life. She did not waver even when Old Mr. Mo’s life was in danger.
Ye Feiyu held onto Wen Xinya’s hand which was no longer as cold now. “Thank Heavens. Old Mr. Mo is indeed blessed.”
Ye Feiyu had received some teachings from Old Mr. Mo throughout the years, ever since she knew Wen Xinya. Besides, she was also learning about history and ancient culture in the University. Hence, she gained plenty of knowledge and saw Old Mr. Mo as her teacher.
Zhou Tianyu stepped forth to hug Wen Xinya while speaking in between sobs. “Xinya, Old Mr. Mo’s life may no longer be in danger for now, but I believe he’ll definitely be alright. Don’t worry too much. You must take care of yourself.”
Within seven short hours, everyone noticed the pain and devastation that Wen Xinya had been through and they were all very worried that Old Mr. Mo might not be able to take it. They were also afraid that Wen Xinya would not be able to take the huge blow if Old Mr. Mo were to fail in pulling through.
A smile graced the icy cold and aloof face of Du Ruoxin, who had been remaining silent. Glancing at Wen Xinya, she said solemnly, “You must take good care of yourself. You’re Old Mr. Mo’s only family member and the emotional support he needs to keep holding on.”
Feeling extremely touched to hear how concerned her friends were, Wen Xinya exclaimed, “Thanks, guys!”
Thank you guys for staying by my side when I was at my most helpless time.
Thank you guys for continuously staying by my side and supporting me. Hence, I’m no longer that solitary, helpless and hopeless Wen Xinya from the previous lifetime.
Wen Xinya was filled with a complicated mix of emotions. Perhaps because she had been through the incident, she became extremely emotional and had a deeper understanding of life, kins.h.i.+p, friends.h.i.+p, and love.
She treasured the people around her.
Gu Junling patted Wen Xinya on the shoulder and said, “We’ve been friends for so many years. There’s no need to be so formal. Old Mr. Mo has taught all of us before. No matter what, we would hope for him to be alright.”
Old Mr. Mo was both their teacher and friend whom they respected and admired greatly!
As her friend, they were all happy for her now that Old Mr. Mo’s life was out of danger.
Ling Qingxuan giggled and said, “Hurry and wipe your tears away. Our G.o.d Si is going to feel heartache.”
Si Yiyan had been racking his brains to think of a way to comfort Wen Xinya. Although he sounded calm, he had actually thought through every word of his and even Ling Qingxuan had no choice but to admit that Si Yiyan was indeed very meticulous with her and would never be perfunctory.
The Buddhism theory that he stated, made Ling Qingxuan’s jaw drop.
Ah, so knowledgeable!
Wen Xinya turned red and hung her head low. She stole a glance at Si Yiyan and reached a hand out to wipe her tears away.
At this moment, Xu Zhenyu was filled with a complicated mix of emotions that he could not put into words. He rubbed her head and surprisingly did not get stopped by Si Yiyan. “You look really ugly after all that crying. Ninth Si is the only one who can stand you. It’s alright, Old Mr. Mo is fine now. Don’t look so upset either, lest everyone gets worried about you.”
Although his words were harsh, he actually said them out of concern for Wen Xinya.
He took a glance at Si Yiyan, after which he understood why Wen Xinya chose him. Despite feeling dejected, he felt much less indignant than before.
Wen Xinya glowered at Xu Zhenyu with bloodshot eyes and said, “So what if I look ugly after crying? Does it get in your way? Did I tell you to look at me? You’re annoying…”
Wen Xinya’s voice was hoa.r.s.e and she sounded like she was about to cry again.
Xu Zhenyu was greatly taken aback. The only thing he was afraid of in this world was women crying, especially Wen Xinya. He raised his arms and surrendered. “Oh dear, did I say something wrong just now? I’ll just apologize to you, alright? Please don’t cry anymore, okay?”
Wen Xinya snorted with laughter, her eyes appearing clear and devoid of misery. “Silly!”
Everyone burst into laughter. The fact that Wen Xinya still had the energy to bicker with Xu Zhenyu meant that she was really alright now.
Xu Zhenyu finally realized that he had been fooled.
Xu Zhenyu absolutely hated being called silly, for it brought back the worst memories for him.
Due to the fact that he was second in place in the Xu family, he had always been called Xu-er ever since he was a child and ever since then, he got used to being second and there was no turning back.
