Five minutes later, Grandma Yu walked out of the ward with the help of the head nurse. After a while, the head nurse pushed Grandma Yu, who had already taken off her sterile clothes, out.
“Jingxing, if your grandfather has any other wishes, just go along with him!” This was the first thing Grandma Yu said when she walked out.
“He might not make it.”
Liuli immediately became dispirited! She originally thought that Grandpa Tang would be better after Grandma went in. Even if she couldn’t completely recover, she would at least wake up. However, Grandma said that Grandpa Tang might not be able to hold on anymore.
Liuli’s mind went blank until she heard her mom tell her. “Liuli, we are going back home. Take good care of Jingxing. Be sensible!”
Liuli nodded and did not dare to speak. She was afraid that tears would fall the moment she opened her mouth.
The two of them and the man sent their parents and Grandma to the elevator.
The elevator door closed and they went downstairs.
Liuli could not help but turn around and hug Tang Moxi’s waist.
She buried her face in his arms. “Brother Moxi, Grandpa will be fine, right?”
“Yes!” Tang Moxi patted her back and said, “Then we’ll wait for Grandpa to wake up!” Liuli replied in a muffled voice as she forced back her tears.
In the afternoon, the Tang family did not leave but waited for Grandpa to wake up.
After that, they waited for another four hours and had the visit for five minutes.
Tang Yanxi said that since Grandpa liked Liuli so much, Liuli could go in and talk to him. Perhaps Grandpa would get better after that.
Tang Yunxi nodded in agreement – Yes, let Liuli in and speak with him!
So Liuli walked in.
Looking at Grandpa Tang lying on the hospital bed, Liuli’s eyes blurred with tears, and many images flashed through her mind. Following Grandpa Tang, they chatted and laughed in the empty space in front of the house where Mr. Tang used to live. They cooked red braised pork for Grandpa Tang, and Grandpa Tang smiled like a flower. Grandpa Tang told Mr. Tang to take good care of Liuli and not bully her. That scene flashed across Liuli’s mind. It was a huge contrast from before.
Liuli stood there for a while before coming back to her senses. She only had five minutes, so she couldn’t waste it. Hence, she glanced out of the window and walked towards Grandpa Tang’s bed.
“Grandpa, I’m here to see you! Grandpa, I’m Liuli. Can you hear me?” Grandpa Tang was still lying motionless on the bed. Liuli walked to the bed and held Grandpa Tang’s thin hand.
She continued.
“Grandpa, I am Liuli and 1 am here!”
“You love telling me stories, don’t you? You love saying jokes with us!”
“I want to hear you stelling the story!”
“Grandpa, pleaes, wake up!”
“I will make you the braised pork you love most, for each meal.”
“You can eat however many pieces you want.”
“Don’t listen to Brother Moxi’s objection.”
“Just two of us, and we can eat togther.”
“He won’t be given any. He will drool.”
“Grandpa, what do you think?”
“Grandpa, they all say you love me most.”
“But why are you not looking at me?”
“I am talking wit you, Grandpa!”
“Grandpa, I miss you a great deal.”
“Please, be well!”
“When you recover, 1 will work hard to give birth to a great grandson for you with Brother Moxi!”
“You can hold him and laugh with him…”
Liuli talked non-stop until she didn’t know what to say. There was only one thought in her mind. She had to wake Grandpa Tang up. Didn’t Grandma say that Grandpa Tang would go along with whatever he thought? Now, she even chose what Grandpa Tang liked to hear the most. Why was Grandpa Tang still ignoring her?! Liuli couldn’t help but cry.
She recalled how she couldn’t stay by Grandpa’s side when he was seriously ill. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. She kept calling him Grandpa. She didn’t even notice that Grandpa Tang’s fingers were trembling.
“Big Brother, Grandpa’s hand seems to be moving?” Tang Yunxi suddenly said in surprise. Tang Moxi nodded and instructed. “Yunxi, go find a doctor.” Tang Yunxi quickly turned around and went to the office to look for the doctor.
Just as Liuli was crying sadly, she heard Grandpa’s voice. Oh, no, it was Grandpa Tang’s voice. “Liuli, you have to keep your word!” Liuli looked up as if she had been electrocuted.
Through her tears, she saw Grandpa Tang looking at her. Liuli wiped her tears in disbelief and stared. Grandpa Tang had really woken up.
“Grandpa…” Liuli held Grandpa Tang’s hand tightly in surprise.
“Liuli, you have to keep your word!” Tang Sheng repeated. His tone was very weak, but if one listened carefully, they could still hear him.
“Okay, I will, I will!”
“You should too!” Liuli sobbed.
Tang Sheng smiled. At this moment, the doctor had already rushed over.
She began to do a full-body checkup on Tang Sheng, who had just woken up. The nurse asked Liuli to leave first. Liuli took off her sterile clothes and walked out. Tang Moxi pulled Liuli into his arms.
“Brother Moxi, Grandpa is really awake! Grandpa is really awake!” Liuli said excitedly.
“It’s all thanks to you. Grandpa likes you the most,” Tang Moxi replied in a low voice. Her eyes turned slightly red.
“Yes, Grandpa likes me too much,” Liuli agreed.
The curtains were already drawn. After the doctor examined them, he walked out of the ICU ward. After congratulating them, he assured them that the old man would be in no danger for the time being.
“What do you mean by temporarily?” Liuli immediately asked.
“Even though the situation has improved, it’s not completely out of danger. Next, we need to continue observing,” the doctor explained.
“Are you only allowed to visit once every four hours?” Tang Yunxi asked. She really wanted to go in and talk to Grandpa so that he would know how much she regretted her stubbornness and selfishness in the past. She hoped that Grandpa wouldn’t take it to heart. She hoped that Grandpa would be healthy and happy.
“If there are no other complications, you can be transferred out of the ICU ward in two days. At that time, as long as it doesn’t affect the patient’s rest, there won’t be a problem,” the doctor explained.
“Thank you, Dr. Chen!”
“You’re welcome. This is what I should do. I’ll get back to work first!”
After the doctor left, the Tang family looked at Grandpa through the window. They were in a good mood. They seemed to be on the verge of victory.
In the following time, everyone discussed how to take turns guarding Grandpa.
At night, Tang Moxi was normally there, but Liuli insisted on being with Tang Moxi.
During the day, it was Tang Yunxi and Tang Yanxi who were guarding.
This night was obviously better than last night.
Tang Moxi asked the hospital to help them open a temporary bed so that Liuli could take a nap if she couldn’t hold on anymore.
In this way, they took turns guarding Grandpa for two days.
Finally, Grandpa Tang left the ICU ward. The entire family was gathered in the ward. “Let’s just chat for a while. The patient is still very weak and needs to rest,” the nurse reminded. “Okay, thank you!” Tang Moxi replied.
“Nurse, when can my grandfather start eating?” Liuli asked.
“48 hours later!” the nurse replied.
“Huh? Oh!” Liuli replied, looking a little disappointed.
“It’s okay. When we can eat, Grandpa will eat the best red braised pork cooked by Liuli!” Tang Sheng comforted Liuli instead. Liuli couldn’t help but laugh.
Because they were afraid of affecting Grandpa’s rest, the family didn’t chat with him for too long and let him rest. Tang Moxi, Liuli, and Tang Yanxi went back first. Tang Yunxi and the caregiver were left in the ward to guard Grandpa.
After returning to the Tang family, Liuli, who had been very excited just now, relaxed and became dispirited.
“Go take a shower. You can have a good sleep later!” Tang Moxi said gently as he ruffled her hair.
“Okay!” Liuli nodded like a chick pecking at rice. The next second, she raised her head and protested righteously, “Brother Moxi, didn’t we agree not to touch my head!”
“Why can’t I touch your head?” Tang Moxi asked, despite knowing the answer.
“I’m not a child. You can’t always bully me like this,” Liuli replied directly.
“You mean that when I feel happy, I shouldn’t touch your head but should express it in other ways?” Tang Moxi raised his eyebrows and asked.
“Of course!” Liuli nodded firmly.
“Alright, maybe you’re right! Then let’s do it in an adult way” Tang Moxi replied with a smile.
This was crazy.
“Don’t ever kiss me like that again!”
In the end, Liuli could not help but protest.
In the end, she was alone in the bedroom. Mr. Tang had just answered a call and gone to the study.
Great that she was alone.
In the end, Liuli shook her head and shook away all the images in her mind, ordering herself to sleep quickly.
She still needed to visit Grandpa Tang at night!
Liuli soon fell asleep.
When Tang Moxi was done with his work, he returned to the bedroom.
She saw Liuli hugging the blanket and sleeping soundly. She was even snoring when she was in a deep sleep.
She was just like a sleeping piglet who looked extremely cute.
Tang Moxi’s cold face softened.
After taking a shower, he lay down beside Liuli.
At this moment, Liuli instinctively came over to Tang Moxi’s room and hugged Mr. Tang, before continuing to sleep.
Tang Moxi’s heart was warmed again at Liuli’s actions.
The two of them were in a deep sleep.
Until Tang Yanxi called, Tang Moxi woke up on the first ring of his cell phone. He picked up the cell phone.
“Brother, I’ve already made dinner. Do you and Sister-in-law want to come over and eat first?” Tang Yanxi asked on the other end of the phone.
“Alright, we’ll be there in 15 minutes,” Tang Moxi replied after looking at the time on his phone.
After hanging up, he turned around and met Liuli’s round eyes..
