Chapter 1002: Chapter 1002: Liberated

The operating room was still lit, Cheng Yue stood in the corridor, anxiously waiting, with each passing minute adding to his anxiety.

Luo Gang squatted on the floor of the corridor, silently smoking one cigarette after another...

"Yuyu!" Cheng Nanfang and his wife appeared in the corridor. They rushed over after just inquiring about the news at the nurse’s station, and from afar, seeing the lit operating room, their hearts clenched tightly together.

"Dad! Mom! You’ve finally arrived." Cheng Yue’s eyes reddened before he could even speak.

Seeing this, Cheng Nanfang’s heart skipped a beat, and a ominous premonition washed over him, "How has your sister ended up in the operating room again?"

"Just a few hours ago, you wouldn’t believe what we went through," Cheng Yue recounted the situation to Cheng Nanfang and Qi Siyuan.

Upon hearing this, Qi Siyuan burst into a painful cry, "Such misfortune! Really, such misfortune! If we had known it would come to this, we should have let Cheng Yu join the cultural troupe instead of letting her study to be a military doctor!"

In pain, Cheng Nanfang did not know what to say, and his temples seemed to have grayed in an instant!

His arms tightly, forcefully wrapped around his wife Qi Siyuan, his jawline clenched tightly, "It’s not your fault! It’s not your fault..."

The lights in the operating room went out, and the doctor came out from the surgery looking exhausted.

Qi Siyuan hurriedly surrounded him, grabbing the doctor’s white coat and asked anxiously, "Doctor, how is she?"

"The surgery was successful. I tried to remove the bullet from her head, but the angle of entry was too tricky, so it was difficult to retrieve! The ruptured brain vessel has been repaired! If she can wake up within the next twenty-four hours, then she will be fine, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, what?"

"She might become a vegetative state! But even if she wakes up within twenty-four hours, the patient will still need a very long time to return to a normal state! It could be three years, it could be five years! Moreover, the bullet has already compressed the optic nerve... even if she wakes up, there’s a possibility she’ll be blind!"

When the doctor finished, Cheng Yu was pushed out of the operating room, Qi Siyuan looked at her daughter’s lifeless face, her heart shattered.

"Little Yu... Little Yu..."

Cheng Yu was taken to the intensive care unit, and through the door, Qi Siyuan tearfully watched her daughter.

Cheng Yue tightly held his mother’s hand, tears blurring his vision.

The always silent Luo Gang walked up to Cheng Nanfang, raised his hand to slap himself twice, tears in his eyes as he said, "Uncle, I’m sorry! I didn’t take good care of Little Yu! I let her become like this."

"You don’t need to blame yourself!" Cheng Nanfang lifted his hand and patted Luo Gang on the shoulder, struggling to say, "This is all Cheng Yu’s own fault! Her stubbornness and willfulness hurt her! It nearly hurt others too! But this might be for the best, better than her completely ruining a life! At least now she can quietly stay by our side! She’s also liberated! You and she are both bound by emotions, from now on, forget Cheng Yu and find a good girl to settle down with... I can’t allow the Luo Family to be without a successor..."

"No! I will love only Cheng Yu in my life. Uncle! Leave her to me! I’ll take her to the best sanatorium in Hong Kong, find the best specialists to care for her recovery..." Luo Gang fiercely wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes as he spoke.
