After not eating or drinking all day and feeling frightened, I sat on the bench and started to bow my waist without knowing when. His hands secretly covered his stomach that kept twitching.
I don't hate the stomachache at this moment, at least it can make me clearly know that I am alive. But what about Ji Guanxin? He has been under general anesthesia for almost six hours. Does he still know that he is still alive
I have recited the blessings of the Buddha countless times in my heart. All he had to do was face the north and kowtow to the sky a few times. In the meantime my mother called me. She was at my nanny's house and said she had already applied incense to me. My grandma even specifically answered the phone and told me that she compared the incense recipe and found that the incense burned well today, which was a sign of turning a bad thing into a good one.
I can't tell whether it's warmth or support in my heart. I always feel like I can count on anything at this time. Those are all great gifts.
Just after midnight, Ji Guanxin's mother was supported by her two daughters-in-law and walked from the other end of the corridor. Seeing that our group was still guarding the door of the operating room, she said to us with red eyes: "We have been waiting for such a long time. Everyone is tired. Let's go eat first. Then we can rest for a while."
My stomach hurts so much that I can't even stand up. So it didn't move.
Ji Guanning and Zhou Mengyi were also sitting on the bench. Didn't get up. After waiting for too long, the tears on our faces have long dried up, replaced by a numb and dull expression.
Cheng Lin said to Ji Guanxin's mother: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about us. We will wait for Guanxin to come out."
The words "Wait for the new one to come out" brought tears to her eyes. Nodding, Ji Guanxin's mother said, "Okay, I'll wait with you until Guanxin comes out."
On the bench opposite, Ji Guanxin and Zhou Mengyi sat at opposite ends, leaving not much space in between. I had no choice but to stand up and whispered: "Auntie, please sit here."
Ji Guanxin's mother came over, looked at Luo Xiangdong and me, and said, "I heard that you just publicly proposed to get together last night. I'm sorry that I have to wait so long for you to come here today."
I replied in a hoarse voice: "Auntie, don't say that, Guan Xin is a very important person to me."
To me, Ji Guanxin was once a friend and once a lover. Now we are not lovers, but we are relatives whose relationship goes beyond friends.
Ji Guanxin's mother nodded, and then said, "I hope that your coming will give Guanxin more hope and possibilities."
Ji Guanxin's mother and I sat on the bench and began another long, silent wait.
I don’t know what tetralogy of Fallot is, nor do I know what pulmonary hypertension is. It’s just an operation with a survival rate of less than 20%. Just the sound of it makes people’s scalp numb.
Sitting outside the operating room, recalling the scenes since I met Ji Guanxin, I seemed to suddenly understand, and finally understood why someone could live so unscrupulously? It turned out that he was not destroying his body, but he knew that he would face death at any time, and he would never wake up after he fainted, so he wanted to do whatever he wanted while his heart was still beating, without any scruples.
Everyone around Ji Guanxin advised him not to smoke or drink, but I have seen him get drunk and never leave his hand. He often talks nonsense, and my impression of him was that there was no truth in his mouth. But I never believed the words he always kept saying, "It almost gave me a heart attack."
In fact, many things make me laugh or cry when I think about it. For example, if I lie, you believe it, if I tell the truth, you don’t believe it.
Ever since I was deceived by Chen Wenhang, I really hate men lying to me. But at this moment, I thought that Ji Guanxin would suddenly come out of the operating room and taunt me with a smile: Liang Zijin, you were deceived again, I was here to scare you!
I promise, I promise not to be angry with Ji Guanxin, no matter how he lies to me.
As long as he comes out alive.
I don’t know how many people have experienced a seven-and-a-half-hour operation, the moment when the operating room door separated from both sides at 1:35 in the morning. Many of us didn’t react for a while. It was Luo Xiangdong next to me who said first: "Come out."
A group of us hurriedly stepped forward and stood up. I woke up very violently, all my eyes turned gray, and my low blood pressure came back.
I couldn't see anything clearly, but I still kept walking forward. The people in front of me had blocked me, and I heard someone ask: "Doctor, how is it? How is my brother?"
The doctor replied in Japanese: "The operation was successful."
When the voice fell, the sounds of Ji Guanning, Zhou Mengyi, and Ji Guanxin's two sisters-in-law were heard crying.
Ji Guanxin's mother couldn't even cry. She just held the hands of those around her tightly, as if the last strength in her body had been drained away.
Facing everyone, the doctor added: "Although the operation was successful, the patient's body is still very weak, and he will be sent to the intensive care unit soon. The seventy-two hours after the operation is a high-risk period for complications. We do not rule out the possibility of postoperative infection and other complications.”
In other words, Ji Guanxin narrowly escaped death and survived a dangerous operation with a success rate of less than 20%. He had to wait three days and three nights to determine whether it was safe.
For us, we don’t know whether we should be happy or worried.
Ji Guanxin was lying in the hospital bed and was pushed out of the operating room by a nurse. He wore an oxygen mask on his pale face, covering his handsome face. The nurse on the side helped him hold up the plasma and the unidentified blood.
After he was sent to the ICU, the most we could do was visit him through the glass window.
The surgeon who performed the surgery was Jieji's biological uncle. He had been undergoing operations for so long that his face was gray and gray, and sweat was still hanging on his eyelashes.
He told us to go back and rest, because Ji Guanxin would be in a coma for the next few days. If anything happens during this period, the hospital will notify you.
Ji Guanxin's family members bowed to the doctor to express their gratitude. After all, no matter what, the operation was successful, which can be regarded as a small miracle.
As for what happens next... that's another story.
Standing in the hospital corridor, Ji Guanxin's eldest brother greeted us on behalf of his mother and said that he had arranged a hotel for us and would send a car to pick us up soon.
I had just said hello to Luo Xiangdong, saying that I wanted to stay in Japan for a few days until Ji Guanxin woke up. Luo Xiangdong agreed.
So now he said to Ji Guanxin's eldest brother: "We have just booked a hotel. Zijin hasn't eaten anything for a day. I will take her to eat first. Is there any news from the hospital..."
Ji Guanxin's eldest brother said: "Leave your number and I will notify you if anything happens."
I left my number, said hello, and came out with Luo Xiangdong.
After staying in the hospital for a day, when I breathed the outside air, I felt like I was reborn.
Luo Xiangdong stopped a car and took me to the hotel. On the way, my mother sent me a text message asking how things were going at the hospital.
I was afraid that she would be worried, so I called her back and told her that Ji Guanxin's operation was successful.
My mother even cried. She kept saying yes and wanted to call my grandma’s family to tell me. It turned out that the whole family was worried about this.
When I hung up the phone, Luo Xiangdong said, "Okay, don't worry, Ji Guanxin even survived the surgery, and there won't be any major problems in the next three days."
I was tired and almost didn't want to talk, so I just nodded.
There happened to be the Peninsula Hotel near the hospital. The taxi stopped in front of the hotel, and Luo Xiangdong paid and got off.
He took my hand and said to me: "Go back to the room later and I'll order you something to eat. Don't say you can't eat. You haven't eaten all day. Now Ji Guanxin has come out well. If you don't eat, I will Heartbroken.”
He blocked all my escape routes and didn't give me a chance to say no.
After entering the Peninsula Hotel, we stood at the front desk to check in. Luo Xiangdong took out the card from his wallet and handed it over, but the front desk quickly handed the card back with both hands, and then said politely: "Sorry, sir, please swipe this card of yours." No."
Luo Xiangdong had no expression on his face. He took back the card and replaced it with another one. But after checking at the front desk, they still said the same thing.
I couldn't help but glance sideways, and then said aloud: "What's going on?"
Luo Xiangdong changed the third card and handed it over, saying loudly: "I don't know."
When Luo Xiangdong couldn't swipe the three cards he handed over, although the attitude at the front desk was still extremely polite, I could already see a hint of imperceptible embarrassment on Luo Xiangdong's face.
I quickly took out my wallet from my bag and took out my own bank card.
Luo Xiangdong didn't bother me, he just looked at the front desk quietly. After swiping the card at the front desk, I went through the check-in procedure smoothly. Then he handed the card to me with both hands with a smile and said something like welcome to check in.
I took the room card and turned to the elevator with Luo Xiangdong. My card can be swiped, but Luo Xiangdong's card cannot be swiped. This is obviously not a problem with the hotel, but with Luo Xiangdong's bank card. And I have known Luo Xiangdong for so long, and I have never seen any problems with his card when going abroad.
Sure enough, after getting on the elevator, Luo Xiangdong immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call.
I didn't know who he was calling in the middle of the night, until he said aloud: "Guan Yue, help me check my bank card, why it can't be used."
It was already past midnight in China, and Luo Xiangdong's phone rang three times before Guan Yue answered it. I have to say it was ruthless in terms of such efficiency.
Guan Yue said: "Okay, Mr. Luo, please wait a moment, I will call you later."
Luo Xiangdong hung up the phone. I looked at him sideways and said, "Don't worry, my card can still be used."
Luo Xiangdong said: "Should I raise you or you raise me?"
I raised my left hand, shook the dazzling big diamond ring on my hand towards Luo Xiangdong, and said aloud: "Mr. Luo, we are husband and wife now. I will not challenge you as a male chauvinist between male and female friends. You, but now that we are living a married life, you are still arguing with me about who spends whose money? "
