Chapter 45 - Sudden Cerebral Hemorrhage
Su Qiao An was very afraid, the fear in the bottom of his heart was surging like floodwaters, approaching aggressively, enough to drown her into an abyss he couldn't walk into.
She had never felt the importance of the people around her.
She was young and ignorant, and loved to dream. She was no exception, she loved to chase after an unreachable wisp of mirage, and she was also obsessed with fantasizing that she would one day be able to achieve it.
Only now did she realize that delusions were delusions and reality was never a fairy tale.
It was foolish to be infatuated with someone over the top.
Being paranoid to the bone, that was called being despicable.
She had never thought that the shadow she wanted to pursue as a young girl would turn into a blood-colored poppy that she would nurture with her blood and sweat. It was so beautiful and dazzling that the soul-devouring brilliance had already robbed her of all of her nutrients.
His heart slowly dried up, leaving him with a decaying body.
In these three years, she had walked with exhaustion and loneliness. Even though she knew she couldn't see the end of the road, she still couldn't turn back.
There was basically no one by her side to accompany her. In the countless silent, pitch black night, Su Qiao An also asked himself, was all of this worth it?
She didn't know the answer, but she knew she regretted it.
If she could do it again, she would definitely not treat this joke as a promise and would definitely not come to this city that did not belong to her in order to reunite with him.
Perhaps it was because all these years she had been so lonely and lonely, but no one would stop for her.
She slowly began to reminisce about her previous life. Although her days were short, she was still very happy because she had someone by her side.
For the first time in her life, she went against Su Rong, causing her to become extremely angry.
What happened next was an unpassable barrier in her life. It was a nightmare.
This nightmare had followed her for many years, and she might never forget it.
She began to learn to cherish those around her, even if the number of people she could cherish were pitifully few.
Grandma Chen was one of the few people who would truly care about her, because she was afraid of remembering that past, she did not want to go back to the brothel.
The reason why she came back this time was because she wanted to avoid Zhu Jiangci. Even if she said it out loud, she herself felt that it was funny.
Returning to his previous place, Su Qiao An was a little dazed.
When she saw the Grandma Chen, she felt both familiarity and strangers.
He always thought that nothing had changed, and only after carefully checking did he realize what was going on.
Grandma Chen was old and she had also grown up. She was no longer that passionate young girl from before, who held hopes for the future, yearned for the unknown, and yearned for the young girl who would soon grow up.
While he was waiting outside the emergency room, Su Qiao An's mind was in a mess. Sometimes she would wake up early in the morning to rush to school, and sometimes she would have to go home after studying at night.
Only when he saw her return did the frown on the man's forehead relax. He walked towards her with a gentle smile on his face.
It was a dim street lamp with warm and heavy lights. It had a slight limp, and its gait was a little fast, but it also had a comforting magic to it.
She had even shamelessly said that she would definitely let her live a good life in the future. She had never expected that before her promised future arrived, Su Rong would have been killed by her, this unfilial daughter.
With a "pa da" sound, the operating light was extinguished.
Su Qiao An was startled, seeing that the door to the operation room was opened, she stood up.
The doctor was the first to come out. When he saw her standing outside nervously, he said, "Are you the patient's relative?"
She paused, pursed her lips and nodded slightly.
Grandma Chen had no children, her only son had been beaten to death by a hoodlum that disobeyed her orders. The police did not care, and closed the case hastily with one eye. After that, Grandma Chen was left alone with no one to take care of him.
When she and Su Rong had first moved to the brothel, she had also received a lot of care from the Grandma Chen. The Grandma Chen treated her like her own daughter, so she could also be considered half a granddaughter of the Grandma Chen.
The doctor did not have time to care about the worries in Su Qiao An's heart, but seeing that she had nodded her head, he coldly said, "The patient suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage, luckily he was able to deliver the treatment in time, and his life was saved, but you have to be mentally prepared, the patient's age is bad, his body is not good, his recovery ability is not strong, to what extent can he recover to, and after waking up, I am unable to give you an accurate reply."
Su Qiao An's eyes froze, "Doctor, do you mean that she will become a vegetable?"
"This is also something that could happen." The doctor answered frankly.
Seeing her like that, the doctor thought that Su Qiao An was the kind of unfilial daughter who despised taking care of her parents. His words immediately became a lot colder, "There will be a day when people become old. How do you treat your parents now? In the future, your children will be like this."
Su Qiao An laughed bitterly, as the corners of his mouth twitched, "I understand, no matter what her situation is, I will not give up."
Hearing this, the doctor's attitude eased a bit, "Alright, the patient will be pushed to the ward soon. You should hurry and complete the procedures now."
"Yes, thank you, Doctor." Su Qiao An thanked the doctor sincerely.
The doctor's expression was indifferent as he slightly nodded his head. Then, he took a step forward and left.
After Su Qiao An saw that the Grandma Chen was pushed out, she went to pay the fees to complete the procedures.
Fortunately, she had accumulated quite a bit in these few years. It was more than enough to pay Grandma Chen's medical expenses.
When she was done with the formalities and was waiting for the elevator with the list in hand, a familiar voice came from beside her.
"Second Sister-in-Law?"
Su Yun was startled, she looked over to where the voice came from, and when she saw Zhu Tianze, she was also stunned, "Why are you here?"
"Earlier, the elevator accident hurt my waist, so the doctor told me to come back and treat it," Zhu Tianze said amiably with a smile.
Upon hearing that it was because of this matter, Su Qiao An tensed up. She asked, "Are your injuries serious?"
"It's no big deal, I can walk and jump." Zhu Tianze stood beside her and waited for the elevator, "Speaking of which, Second Brother seems to be more injured than I am, I wonder if Second Brother is feeling better?"
She recalled the matter of Zhu Jiangci being injured in order to protect her, and complex emotions surged in her heart.
Zhu Jiangci had to do this kind of thing that would affect her mood the moment she was prepared to give up and leave. This made her waver the resolute thoughts in the bottom of her heart.
This method is really despicable! However, it was still effective towards her, because she felt her inner heart was wavering and Su Qiao An was also disdaining her own weakness and uselessness.
