Not long after dinner, Lu Tingxiao's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?" Lu Tingxiao picked up the phone.
"Hello! Brother! Something's wrong … Dad … Dad has fainted at home … He's been sent to the hospital … The doctor said … he might not make it this time … "Lu Jingli's voice came from the other end of the phone. It was obvious that he was panicking.
The man's expression instantly darkened. "I'll be there right away."
"Wait! Brother, bring Xiao Bao with you. What if Dad … "Lu Jingli couldn't bring himself to say that 'what if'.
The man paused. "Got it."
…
At night, at the Imperial City Hospital.
Lu Chongshan had just been rescued and was lying in the ICU.
"Doctor? How is my husband? "
The attending doctor's face was solemn. "Old Master Lu hasn't been in good health recently. It's especially dangerous this time. I'm afraid he won't make it …"
Yan Ruyi's body trembled. She could no longer stand. She fell into Lu Jingli's arms and sobbed. "Chongshan …"
"Mom, don't cry! Dad is still fine, isn't he? Didn't he make it through so many times? Didn't he make it through the danger six years ago? Dad has been through so much. He will definitely make it through this time! "Lu Jingli comforted her firmly.
The doctor hurriedly comforted him. "We will do our best."
Xiao Bao stared at the old man in the ICU through the glass window. She gently held her grandmother's hand and held it tightly.
Yan Ruyi squatted down and hugged Xiao Bao as if she was hugging the last piece of driftwood.
Lu Tingxiao, who had been silent all this while, glanced at the doctor and then called him away in a low voice.
"I want to hear the truth." Lu Tingxiao went straight to the point.
The doctor replied with a bitter smile. "Actually, the most important thing is the patient's will to live. You've seen Old Master's condition for the past year. He has a knot in his heart, and if he doesn't get rid of it, it's only a matter of time before he ends up like this … His illness is greatly affected by his mood …"
Actually, they had already expected this. Ever since the clan banquet, Lu Chongshan had suffered a series of setbacks. In the past year, Lu Chongshan's body had been weakening bit by bit...
"We will definitely do our best here. As his family, there is not much you can do now. Try to comfort him and make him relax. Maybe he will get better." Although the doctor said so, he didn't have much hope. After all, it had been a year. If there was any depression that could be solved, it would have been solved long ago. How could it get better overnight?
"Got it. Thank you."
Yan Ruyi was tired of crying. She sat on the bench in a daze and murmured, "Your father … Although he doesn't say it … he knows … everything is his fault … Xiaoxi … you … and Xiaobao … Xiaoxi has to lie in bed for the rest of her life … Your and Xiaobao's lives … are ruined … Our whole family is ruined … We can't have a family anymore …"
Lu Jingli and Lu Tingxiao stood there in silence, neither of them saying a word.
In the quiet corridor, only the sound of Yan Ruyi's sorrowful sobs could be heard. A haze hung over everyone's heads.
Since then, Lu Chongshan had been staying in the hospital.
Only when Xiao Bao was around did Lu Chongshan's condition improve and he could barely eat a few mouthfuls of food. During this time, Xiao Bao had been accompanying him in the hospital.
When the news of Lu Chongshan's critical illness leaked out, everyone in the family rushed to the capital from all over the country to inquire about the situation. For a while, the whole family and the group were in a state of panic again …
