The moment he finished signing the papers, a nurse rushed out of the operating theater. She looked flustered. "Chief Zhou, the pregnant woman is emotional. All her indicators are abnormal."
The chief surgeon frowned. He glanced at Ling Han and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Ling, please change into a sterile gown and follow me into the operating theater."
In front of the hospital bed, Ye Huanyan was covered with a large green surgical drape. Her face was pale, and her eyes were narrowed. Her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and there were many sticky strands of hair on her cheeks. She muttered, "Ling Han …"
Ling Han entered the operating theater after the chief surgeon. He looked at the figure on the operating table and felt a sharp pain in his heart. It was as if a big hole had been torn open. He walked forward and shouted anxiously, "Ye Huanyan."
Ye Huanyan opened her eyes and saw Ling Han. She raised her hand with difficulty. "Ling Han, save … save the child … I beg you, I beg you …"
Until now, she was still thinking about the child with Su Nianhua.
Ling Han tensed up and held her hand tightly. He said in a deep voice, "Ye Huanyan, I promise you, we will have children in the future …"
"Don't …" She screamed at the top of her lungs, but there was no strength in her voice. She increased the strength in her hand, and her pale lips trembled. She even wanted to get up from the operating table. Her whole body trembled. She looked at Ling Han in despair and said word by word, "Save my child, save our child. He's yours. He's really yours. I … I beg you, I beg you …"
The equipment suddenly made a loud beeping sound. The doctor at the side exclaimed, "The pregnant woman is bleeding profusely. Dr. Zhou, we need to operate quickly."
The chief surgeon glanced at Ling Han and said in a low voice, "The pregnant woman needs to be emotionally stable …"
Ling Han took a deep breath. "Ye Huanyan, listen to me …"
"Save the child, save the child …"
Ye Huanyan did not seem to hear anything. She only muttered those two words repeatedly. She stared at Ling Han and tightened her grip. It was as if she was using all the strength in her body. Even if this kind of force made her bleed profusely, she did not feel anything.
"I promise you, I'll save the child."
Ling Han's voice was particularly clear among the many sounds of the equipment. Finally, it fell into Ye Huanyan's ears.
He only felt that after he said this, the strength in his hand suddenly loosened.
Ye Huanyan's eyes were filled with tears as she slowly closed them.
The sound of the doctors working together in an orderly manner filled the operating theater, but for Ling Han, who was beside Ye Huanyan, it sounded inexplicably distant.
"The pregnant woman's vital signs.
"Forceps
"Surgical Forceps
"The fetus has been successfully extracted. No signs of life …"
There is no sign of life … "
The long process of the surgery was a kind of torture. Whether it was the person on the operating table or the people below the operating table, when Ling Han walked out of the operating room, he only felt that he had no strength in his body. It was as if the person lying on the operating table was not Ye Huanyan, but himself.
Su Nianhua stood up from the bench and asked anxiously, "How is Yan Yan?"
Ling Han raised his head. There was an inexplicable sense of loss in his eyes. He looked at Su Nianhua but did not say a word.
The doctor walked over from afar and glanced at Ling Han. He sighed and said, "It's a boy, but don't blame yourself too much. The child has intracranial hemorrhage, and there is no sign of life in the pregnant woman's stomach. It can't be saved. You made the right choice. You saved the pregnant woman from suffering."
Su Nianhua was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ling Han's dazed expression and suddenly felt a little pity.
…
Ye Huanyan felt as if she had fallen into a big dream and could not wake up no matter how hard she tried.
In the dream, it was chaotic. It was as if someone was talking to her, but when she opened her eyes, she could not see anything. There was the sound of cold instruments, but the surroundings were filled with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers. There was also the sound of children playing.
She stared blankly at the thousands of flowers and a blurry little figure in the distance.
He ran towards her. "Mommy …"
The joy in her heart was indescribable. Was that her baby?
Three days later, in the VIP ward. The glaring sun shone on her face. Ye Huanyan slowly opened her eyes and saw the shining white wall above her head. She was stunned. She instinctively raised her arm and touched her lower abdomen.
The bulge was obviously gone.
She panicked for a moment at first, but then she remembered what Ling Han had promised her before she passed out on the operating table.
The child was almost full term. It should be fine.
There was no one in the ward. She tried to move her arm and sat up from the bed. She pushed the IV drip cart beside her and carefully walked out of the ward.
There were people coming and going in the corridor outside the door. She was wearing a hospital gown. Soon, a nurse came to ask if she needed help.
"Hey, which bed are you in? Why aren't any family members with you? "
Ye Huanyan was a little uneasy. "I'm fine. I just want to see my child."
"Your child?" The nurse frowned and turned to look at the VIP ward number behind her. She suddenly realized. "You're the pregnant woman who was born prematurely two days ago!"
She nodded hesitantly.
The nurse smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll take you to see the child. The child is in the intensive care unit. He's not even full term, but he was lucky to be saved. Our pediatrician took good care of him. He's very healthy now and can be discharged when he's full term."
Hearing this, Ye Huanyan's eyes lit up. "Really? He's very healthy? "
"Yes, he's very healthy. He's a girl as beautiful as you."
As the nurse spoke, she helped Ye Huanyan to the elevator. "The intensive care unit is downstairs. Walk slowly."
Not long after Ye Huanyan left, Ji Xiaoyue held a bouquet of flowers on the first floor of the inpatient department. She walked towards the elevator in her high heels. After pressing the button for the elevator, she waited anxiously at the door.
"Are you here to see Yan Yan?" A familiar voice sounded from behind her.
She froze and slowly turned her head. Gu Sinian was wearing a linen suit and looking at her gently.
When she met his eyes, she only felt her throat become very hoarse. She stiffly responded, then lowered her head and quickly avoided his gaze. She nodded and said, "Yes."
Ever since she heard his conversation with Ye Huanyan at the Chinese restaurant that day, the two of them had not seen each other again. Actually, there was nothing to be embarrassed about, but Ji Xiaoyue felt terrible and deliberately avoided him.
The elevator slowly rose. Gu Sinian did not say anything and stood quietly beside her. The scent of mint wafted to the tip of her nose. She could not help but tighten her grip on the bouquet of flowers. In the end, she could not help but ask, "Is Yan Yan awake?"
When he left yesterday, she was still in a coma.
"She wasn't when I left."
"Oh …" Ji Xiaoyue nodded.
When the elevator reached the floor, it slowly opened with a ding.
The two of them walked in the direction of the ward. Before they reached the door, they saw Ling Han rushing out of the ward. When he saw the two of them, he asked, "Where's Yan Yan?"
