Shan Jingtian then picked a few light dishes and came out of the restaurant. While waiting for the elevator, she met Lu Qirui again.
"Miss Shan, are you so fast?" Lu Qirui stood beside her and said with a self-deprecating smile: "We always meet, I'm really worried that Miss Shan will misunderstand me."
Shan Jingtian looked at the elevator and said, "The hospital is so big, so it's normal for us to meet each other. What did I misunderstand you for?"
"I was afraid that you would misunderstand me, so I met you on purpose." Lu Qirui touched his nose and smiled self-deprecatingly.
After Shan Jingtian heard what he said, she twitched her lips towards the elevator but said nothing. Regardless of whether he did it on purpose or not, so what? He looked at her strangely that day, which was enough to remind her to stay away from him.
"I'm really sorry about what happened that day. Did I scare you?" Perhaps Lu Qirui also keenly felt her alienation from him and asked.
Shan Jingtian smiled lightly and said, "No, everything is over, so don't blame yourself anymore."
After she finished speaking, the elevator arrived just in time. The door opened, and many people came out. The two of them entered the elevator together.
"Has your mother had surgery?" he asked with concern.
"I just finished the operation, and it's fine."
"That's good, congratulations!"
"Thanks."
Lu Qirui said: "Don't be careless about postoperative care. I know family caregivers who are professional. If you need it, I can help you contact them."
"Thank you first, I'll wait until I'm discharged from the hospital." Shan Jingtian said gratefully.
"Okay, come to me if you need anything."
The chat ended and the elevator arrived at the floor. The two of them didn't talk about anything else and went back to the ward.
Miaomiao had woken up, feeling weak all over, as if it was difficult to raise her eyelids. Shan Chenghao was lying on her pillow, whispering something to her.
Shan Jingtian immediately put down her things, came to the bedside, looked at Miaomiao, and called her softly: "Mom, how do you feel?"
Shan Chenghao said: "Your mother said it feels good. Let her have a good rest."
Miaomiao closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep.
The father and daughter sat up straight and went to the dining table.
"I bought you your favorite black rice porridge and some side dishes. You can eat some of them." She opened the boxes one by one and said.
Shan Chenghao looked at the food in front of him and said, "Your mother's surgery is over, and I feel relieved."
"Yes, how great it is that the operation was so successful!" Shan Jingtian helped the old man up and walked towards the bathroom: "You haven't eaten well these days. Eat more later."
Miaomiao's operation was successful, allowing the father and daughter to see the light, sweeping away the haze, and their hearts became brighter.
During the days in the hospital, seeing Miao Miao getting better day by day, I felt that the days passed very fast. Finally, on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, I was discharged from the hospital!
Early in the morning, after the doctor went to work, she started to run out of the hospital. After all the procedures were completed, it was almost noon.
When he returned to the ward, he didn't expect to see Li Jinlie coming over and zipping up his luggage bag. When he saw her coming in, he looked at him in confusion and smiled narrowly at her.
"Why are you here? Aren't you unable to get out of the company's board meeting today?" Shan Jingtian was moved and walked over quickly, looking at him with bright eyes.
Li Jinglie stretched out his hand and scratched her little nose lovingly, "I'll switch it to tomorrow."
"Thank you." Shan Jingtian stood on tiptoes and whispered in his ear, exhaling like a blue breath.
Shan Chenghao and Miao Miao sat aside and looked at each other, smiling.
The family drove home. Shan Chenghao pushed his wheelchair in front, and Shan Jingtian and Li Jinglie followed behind with their luggage.
Coming up from his garage, his aunt Xiao Zhou first congratulated Miao Miao for being discharged from the hospital, and then said happily: "The young master is back. He just came back not long ago, and he is still in the living room."
Shan Jingtian was stunned and tugged on Shan Chenghao's clothes in front: "Dad, my brother is back."
"Well, I'm not deaf."
Miao Sichen, who was in the living room, heard the voices and walked over, as if asking Xiao Zhou, "Sister Zhou, are my mother and the others back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Miaomiao in the wheelchair. She was wearing a thick down jacket and a hat on her head. Her face was sallow, and her lips had no color. She had lost a lot of weight and had no energy at all.
"Mom!" His eyes widened in shock, and he hurried over, bending over and not knowing where to touch with his hands, and asked in a trembling voice: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Were you in a car accident? Is your leg okay?
"
Miaomiao patted her son's hand comfortingly and said, "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid."
"Then what's wrong with you?" Miao Sichen said, "Why did you become like this when I was away for a while?"
Previously, he went to Africa with his teacher as a volunteer. The local conditions were extremely difficult and the communications were incomplete. He usually did not have much contact with his family. He only sent a few messages to report that he was safe when there was signal.
"Brother, don't get excited. Our mother just wasn't feeling well. She had an operation and she's fine now." Shan Jingtian explained to him, "Get out of the way first. If you have anything to say, I'll ask you later. Let my mother go back first."
Go to your room and lie down."
Miao Sichen walked behind the wheelchair and said to Shan Chenghao, "I'll push my mother." His tone didn't sound good.
Shan Chenghao made way for him, looking helpless.
After returning to Miao Miao's room, Miao Sichen put her mother on the bed again, covered her with a quilt, sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "What's wrong with her? She needs surgery."
Miaomiao said: "There was something growing in my uterus. Your sister took me for a physical examination and found out, so I stayed in the hospital directly. The operation was successful and it's no big deal."
Miao Sichen breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the father and daughter, and asked coldly: "You deliberately hid it from me, didn't you?"
"What's the purpose? I can't get through to you on the phone, how can I tell you?" Shan Jingtian said aggrievedly first.
"Then when I sent you a message to tell you that I was safe, didn't you tell me?" Miao Sichen was very unhappy, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big surgery?"
"Si Chen, calm down and listen to me. Your mother and I didn't tell you because we were afraid of delaying your work there. Tiantian and I thought that with us here anyway, it would be more than enough to take care of your mother.
I didn't tell you. I didn't mean anything else." Shan Chenghao explained to him slowly.
Miao Sichen asked: "Didn't you say that you would take good care of my mother? Are you taking good care of her like this?"
Shan Jingtian was unhappy when she heard this, "Brother, can you be reasonable? It was not our decision to make Mom sick. Why are you blaming Dad?"
"That's your dad, not my dad." Miao Sichen said coldly, turned around, and said to Miao Miao: "Mom, let's go back to country J, and I will take care of you later."
Miaomiao knew that her son was making angry remarks, so she waved her hands to the father and daughter, "You two go out first, I will chat with my son for a while."
