Chapter 948: Chapter 940: A Prescription

Xiao Yifei’s injury was very severe. He only woke up after 16 hours of sleep. When he slowly opened his eyes and hadn’t grasped what had happened to him, the nurse taking care of him said, "Doctor Xiao, you finally woke up. You scared me to death all day and night. This is the first time I’ve seen a doctor so exhausted after surgery."

Xiao Yifei listened to the nurse babbling about something, but he didn’t hear a single word she said. His head hurt so much it felt like it was about to explode, and he clearly felt his blood vessels pounding fiercely. He wanted to sit up, but suddenly realized he couldn’t muster any strength in his arm; he felt like his body didn’t belong to him.

The nurse came over to help him sit up, but he gently shook his head and refused her offer. He didn’t want anyone to see how weak he was now.

So he asked the nurse to buy him some food, sending her out of the room temporarily.

He cautiously moved his body and discovered that even moving a finger made him tremble. How did it get this serious? In his memory, his grandfather seemed to have had a similar condition, but it was nowhere near as severe as his own. He hadn’t realized the extent of harm this treatment would bring him. He really underestimated the danger of the Biwei Silver Needle; in the future, he wouldn’t easily use such a treatment method unless he could find the accessories of the Biwei Silver Needle one day.

Hu Jingtang rushed over, having specifically instructed the nurse not to inform anyone else once Xiao Yifei woke up but to notify him first. Hu Jingtang looked at Xiao Yifei lying in bed and felt that Xiao Yifei’s current situation was even worse than his own.

With nothing to hide from Hu Jingtang, Xiao Yifei weakly said to him, "This time, the damage to my body is too great. I didn’t expect it to be this severe; I feel like my body isn’t my own right now." Xiao Yifei spoke very slowly, almost letting each word fall out one at a time.

Hu Jingtang sat down by his bed, saying, "You need to properly rest for this entire week; otherwise, you really might end up with long-term repercussions. I previously prepared a prescription for you; you need to nourish your body well. I’ve also witnessed firsthand the harm of this treatment. Xiao Yifei, you truly are a good doctor."

Xiao Yifei weakly smiled at Hu Jingtang without saying anything further. Seeing his condition, Hu Jingtang said no more, quietly sitting by the bed. He had only been sitting for a short while when he felt his own body couldn’t take it.

He apologized to Xiao Yifei, saying, "I originally wanted to accompany you for a while longer, but my old bones won’t allow it. I’m now reduced to lying around all day." Saying that, he slowly returned to his room.

"Grandpa, why aren’t you staying put in your room? Where have you run off to now?" As Hu Jingtang returned to his room, he ran into Liu Sisi, who was about to go out to look for him.

"Xiao Yifei woke up. I just went over to see him." Hu Jingtang said, then, with Liu Sisi’s help, lay back down on his bed. At that moment, as Liu Sisi supported him, Hu Jingtang suddenly wished to leave this world sooner.

He felt he brought too much trouble to them. Every day, Liu Sisi had to rush between school matters and the hospital, and he clearly felt his beloved child had lost quite a bit of weight, with her double chin disappearing.

Although Liu Rui didn’t come to see him every day, whenever he did, he’d sit with him for the entire day. Even though most of the time they were silent, Liu Rui didn’t like to talk, and Hu Jingtang wanted to say a lot to Liu Rui but was physically unable to. Speaking for more than five minutes made breathing difficult due to weakness.

For the first time, he felt like a burden to them. In fact, even without him, these two kids would live well. They were adults. He was already married at Liu Rui’s age, so there wasn’t really anything to worry about for them. Sisi was definitely fine; she had always been well-behaved and sensible, with many friends, so there was no need to worry about her future happiness.

Previously, he was quite worried about Liu Rui. Yet through these recent interactions between them, he discovered Liu Rui was far more mature than he had imagined. Hu Jingtang had to admit that his perception of Liu Rui was still stuck ten years ago, when he always saw Liu Rui as that silent, somewhat introverted child.

Sisi, promise me you’ll take good care of yourself in the future, eat well, and after graduating, find a dependable young man so I can be at peace," Hu Jingtang said.

"Grandpa, since you’re so worried about me, then wait until I graduate from college and find me a reliable one yourself," Liu Sisi said, her head bowed, her voice muffled.

Liu Sisi didn’t want to continue this sad topic, so she said, "Grandpa, stay here and rest well. I’m going to check on Brother Xiao Yifei." With that said, she turned and walked out of the room.

Sitting on the chair outside the door, Liu Sisi felt useless when her grandpa brought up such topics; she couldn’t help but want to cry. She knew she should happily accompany her grandpa through this last journey, but how could she not feel sad!

After Deng Fuguo’s father’s illness was cured, Liu Rui’s calls to him always appeared as busy signals. He suddenly realized Deng Fuguo had deceived him. He regretted underestimating the situation; he thought Deng Fuguo, being a soldier and seemingly an upright man, would surely keep his word.

He felt he hadn’t thought things through regarding saving his own father.

Knowing Deng Fuguo’s father was still in the hospital, Deng Fuguo was sure to be there, so he waited in the hospital lobby all day. It wasn’t until evening when Deng Fuguo appeared, though he had several people with him; discussing this matter privately seemed impossible.

However, with Xiao Yifei still lying in the hospital bed, unable to act effectively, he counted himself lucky when Deng Fuguo, after spending some time in his father’s room, came out alone, seemingly headed to Xiao Yifei’s room, so he immediately followed.

Xiao Yifei saw the two men entering back-to-back and was about to introduce them since he didn’t know they were acquainted when Liu Rui said, "Brother Xiao, I have some personal matters to discuss with Deng Fuguo and would like to go talk outside." Xiao Yifei noticed Liu Rui’s face was tense, as if trying hard to endure something.

After two days of rest, Xiao Yifei’s strength had mostly recovered. He felt nearly free of any serious issues, but Hu Jingtang was still uneasy, warning him to rest enough for a full week, or the harm would truly be significant. noveldrama

Xiao Yifei looked at Liu Rui and said, "Why are you reporting your conversation to me?"

So Deng Fuguo had no choice but to go out with Liu Rui; he didn’t want to discuss this matter in front of Xiao Yifei. After all, Xiao Yifei was their family’s savior, and with his condition not yet fully healed, they couldn’t let his emotions be affected.

"Have you forgotten about our agreement?" Liu Rui asked forcefully.
