The door of the operating room opened. The doctor wiped the sweat off his face and took off his mask. "Doctor, is my boyfriend okay?"
An Ke saw the doctor and immediately came up to ask. The doctor was He Ting's exclusive doctor, so he didn't ask about the origin of He Ting's injuries.
"The patient is out of danger now. He will wake up after the effect of the anesthetic wears off. His wounds may hurt a lot tomorrow. At this time, he needs comfort and care. Besides you, does the patient have any other family members?"
It was the first time for the doctor to see a situation where there were no other family members except the girlfriend.
"No. He has only had his father since childhood. Now he only has me." An Ke lovingly stroked He Ting's hair. Thinking of He's father's actions, her eyes darkened.
The doctor was helpless. "I can tell you're quite busy. It's best for someone to accompany the patient during his recovery. So you'd better arrange your schedule accordingly."
An Ke was very grateful for the doctor's kindness. "Thank you, doctor. I will make arrangements and won't let him suffer."
The doctor neither affirmed nor denied and said nothing. He could only give some advice, and other things were beyond a doctor's concern.
"He Ting, I... I'm sorry..." An Ke stroked He Ting's face and kept apologizing to him. Tears silently fell on He Ting's face and into his heart.
"An Ke, An Ke..." An Ke heard someone as if talking to her. She then looked up, crying out of control, with tears streaming down.
She saw He Ting's eyes slowly opening. An Ke couldn't hold back her emotions after these long days of waiting.
"Don't be afraid. This is the hospital. You're okay now." He Ting finally came to his senses from the assassination. Seeing An Ke crying like this, he then noticed the wounds on his body. But he cared more about An Ke's emotions.
"It's okay. Don't be scared. It's just a minor thing. Don't cry. I'm just having a good rest. Why do you have to cry so much and make me feel heart - ache?"
At this moment, An Ke didn't care about He Ting's comfort at all. She just kept crying uncontrollably.
"Alright, alright. I'm safe and sound now!"
Hearing He Ting's words, it was He Ting who was comforting An Ke instead. An Ke was very dependent on He Ting. She could really feel at ease only when she leaned against He Ting's chest.
"The patient has just woken up and needs a good rest. The doctor will come for a check - up later. Control your emotions, or it will affect the check - up."
The nurse came to inform He Ting and also told An Ke. But An Ke didn't care to listen to others.
He Ting nodded as if he understood but not really. His body was too weak. After just taking a hasty look at the world, he fell into a coma again.
However, the doctors soon came. After He Ting woke up once, they had to take him back for a comprehensive check - up.
During this process, An Ke always followed closely behind them. But when they entered the treatment room, An Ke could only stand in the corridor outside and wait.
Bo Jinnian finally couldn't help it. He had taken care of An Ke for so many years, and it had become a habit.
"Don't worry too much. The doctor originally said that if He Ting didn't wake up in these few days, he might never wake up again. But now he has woken up.
It means he still has a chance of survival. You should also take care of your own body. You've been staying in the hospital every day these days. I can see your complexion has deteriorated a lot. You probably haven't had a good rest. Drink this glass of milk!"
An Ke took the glass of milk from his hand but didn't drink it immediately. Holding it in her hand, the gentle feeling was actually the best.
"Drink the milk first." Bo Jinnian kept emphasizing.
An Ke was slightly stunned. She subconsciously looked around but didn't see any suspicious people.
After all, He Ting was not an ordinary businessman now. In case there were any bad guys who wanted to harm him, An Ke was still quite cautious. So she was really a bit flustered. Then An Ke nodded and began to drink the milk with her head down.
After waiting for a while, the doctor finally came out. An Ke saw He Ting being wheeled out too. Seeing that He Ting's complexion seemed quite good, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
"How is he, doctor?" He Ting's sudden fainting really scared her. An Ke had been on tenterhooks, afraid of hearing bad news.
When the patient's family member asked, the doctor of course didn't dare to hide anything. But the doctor really didn't understand what on earth had happened to this person to get such injuries in such a peaceful era.
However, doctors have their own professional ethics. As long as it has nothing to do with the patient's condition, they generally won't ask about the patient's privacy.
"There's no big problem. It's just that his body is too weak, so he fell asleep again soon after waking up. But since he has woken up, it means his body functions haven't been completely damaged. It's just that his injuries are really too serious. He may need a good rest for some time to gradually recover."
After hearing the doctor's words, An Ke finally felt relieved. "Is he still asleep now?"
The doctor nodded. "He probably won't be truly awake until tomorrow. So if the family members have nothing to do today, they can go back and rest earlier.
Conservatively estimated, the patient will probably wake up tomorrow morning. But considering his physical condition, it may be a bit later, noon or afternoon. But he should be awake before tomorrow evening."
An Ke nodded and then went back to the ward with Bo Jinnian. After seeing all the medical staff leave, he then said.
"The doctor has said that He Ting probably won't wake up today. You don't need to stay in the hospital any longer. I can see your complexion is not good. Go back and rest earlier today.
He Ting will wake up tomorrow. I'm sure he will have a lot to say to you then. I believe you also have something to say to him. So tomorrow will definitely be a tiring day. Get a good rest today and don't keep guarding here."
Bo Jinnian felt sorry for An Ke. In just a few days, An Ke had become haggard.
"But I want to wait for him to wake up. After all, he became like this because of me. I..." An Ke was already very tired, but she couldn't rest assured.
