Chapter 442: Chapter 393 Just Started
Gu Qili woke up three days later. During that period, she was completely confused, oblivious to the fact that she had been unconscious for four days, let alone that she had undergone a liver transplant surgery.
When she came to, only Mu Shuoqian was in the hospital room, and at that moment, he was sleeping beside her. His tall figure seemed awkwardly placed there, making his sleep uncomfortable.
Gu Qili wanted to reach out and touch his hair, but a slight movement caused a hint of pain on the back of her hand. When she lifted her wrist, she saw many needle marks.
She thought it was her usual liver pain and felt a bit uncomfortable, shifting her body slightly. That very small movement was enough to wake Mu Shuoqian immediately.
"Don’t move," Mu Shuoqian hastily pressed her hand, "You’ve just had surgery; don’t move around."
Only then did Gu Qili notice the bloodshot in his eyes and the stubble on his chin, giving the impression he hadn’t slept for days and nights.
Before she could speak, he had already grabbed her hand, smiling somewhat excitedly, "Qiqi, you’re finally awake. Do you realize how long you’ve been asleep?"
"Was it a long time?" Gu Qili had just had major surgery and was still a bit weak in her breath, but seeing the smile on Mu Shuoqian’s face, she guessed it was good news.
"Really a long time.
"Did they find the donor while I was comatose?" Gu Qili, having learned from her previous experience, doubted him and pursed her lips, "Such a coincidence?"
"Just that coincidental." Mu Shuoqian’s mood was very high now. In his world, the dark clouds had all dispersed, and he was seeing vast skies and seas. To him, as long as she was okay, nothing else mattered, "The surgery was very successful. Your body now has a healthy liver, and so far, there’s no sign of rejection. Once your body is more recovered,
Gu Qili also couldn’t quite believe it. It was as if she had had a dream and, upon waking from it, her body had acquired an extra piece of liver, a liver without any illness. Although she didn’t know how long this liver would allow her to live, she was confident in her fight against the disease.
"Hmm, I’ll listen to you. I’ll do whatever you arrange for me." Gu Qili smiled at him, "Where’s Niannian?"
"He insisted on staying here with you. I had Uncle Yu take him home. These past few days you were unconscious, it really scared the poor kid."
Gu Qili was touched but also filled with heartache. Such a small child had to go through all of this; she had let him down as a mother.
"I’ll make a call to the others. They were determined to wait until you woke up. I finally managed to send them away." Mu Shuoqian was reluctant to let go of her hand because he would never easily let go of this warm hand again. For him, her rebirth was also his.
And now that the surgery was just finished, there could still be other discomforts. Although it seemed easy, every moment was like walking on thin ice.
"Does the wound still hurt?"
"A bit sore, but I can bear it." This pain was nothing compared to the agony of a liver disease attack. Gu Qili smiled at him, "I thought I’d never see you again. I didn’t expect Heaven to give me another chance. It feels like a dream. Mu Shuoqian, pinch me."
Mu Shuoqian really did lift his hand and pinched her cheek, but nearly without any force, playfully asking, "Does it hurt?"
"Are you tickling me?"
"Oh, my timing really isn’t great." Mickey’s laughing voice came from outside the door, followed by Chen Yishu and his wife, along with several classmates from high school and college.
Mu Shuoqian’s good moment was interrupted, but he wasn’t annoyed at all. His mood was so good that even if you slapped him, he would smile and offer his face to you again.
"I’ll go get you a glass of water and call the doctor in to have a look." Mu Shuoqian stood up and gave a slight nod to her group of classmates at the door.
Once Mu Shuoqian stepped out, everyone crowded around the bed, bombarding her with their concerns.
"You’re going to yell her to death. The patient needs to rest." Mickey hurriedly gestured for them to stop, "Speak one at a time if you have something to say."
She sat next to Gu Qili, happily holding her hand. These past few days had terrified her as well. She had prepared for the worst but, unexpectedly, a miracle had indeed happened.
"By the way, Qiqi, Tang Tianyou has been here every day. Have you called him to let him know you’re okay?"
