Chapter 572 Return A Healthy Qianan To You

Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 572

Shen Qianan stayed in the intensive care unit for two days before waking up. That was not what Huo Ling had expected. Fortunately, Shen Qianan did not have any adverse reactions when she woke up, but she didn't seem to want to talk much. Huo Ling had done a checkup for Shen Qianan during the few hours she was there.

She had also administered several shots to relieve the patient's pain. Shen Qianan was like a puppet on strings. She refused to speak, and wouldn't even cry out when it hurt.

Out of boredom, Huo Ling stared at Shen Qianan's face, which was identical to Shi Nuan's, and said, "Um, you don't have to worry. Once you get better, I'll remove the scars on your face and body. You have to trust me. After all, I came from a family with medical background... Ms. Qianan, are you mute? Why aren't you talking?"

Huo Ling had been observing Shen Qianan for several hours. She perceived Shen Qianan to be even duller than people who are mute. At least the mute would make noises when they got excited or when they wanted to talk, but Shen Qianan stayed completely silent. Only the sounds of her breathing were proof that she was still alive.

Huo Ling was a little discouraged. Feeling resigned, she say by the bed as she looked at Shen Qianan. "Hey, I may not be able to eliminate the virus in your body completely, but I can try my best. Your sister..." Huo Ling said to herself. She had assumed that Shen Qianan would ignore her. Yet, when she brought up Shi Nuan's name, Shen Qianan, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly turned around Her hollow eyes fell on Huo Ling and asked, "How's Nuan?"

Perhaps it was because she had not spoken for so long, Shen Qianan's throat had gone dry, and her voice raspy. Upon hearing that, Huo Ling frowned and quickly got up to pour Shen Qianan a glass of water. "Have some water. Then, I'll tell you about Ms.

Nuan!"

Shen Qianan nodded and replied, "Please help me get up!"

Huo Ling helped Shen Qianan up resignedly and fed her some water. "I may have reconnected your hand, but it won't be as functional as before. It would be best if you don't carry heavy objects," muttered Hud Ling as she helped Shen Qianan with the water.

Shen Qianan's eyes dimmed when she heard that, but she quickly suppressed her emotions. She finished the water in a serious manner and smiled faintly. "It's a blessing to be alive. I won't ask for much. Oh, you mentioned Nuan just now. How is she? The virus inside her..."

Shen Qianan had struggled when she found out that Shi Nuan was her biological sister. Some time later, she thought, Shi Nuan didn't do anything wrong. She's abandoned by our parents, just like me. Both of us have led different lives, but those experiences were terrible.

After some deliberation, Shen Qianan had long accepted their fate.

For some reason, Shen Qianan kept thinking and dreaming about Shi Nuan every night when she had been locked up by Fu Sijue.

When she was inside the cell that Ying had locked her in, she would hear Shi Nuan calling her name whenever she felt groggy. Her sister was begging her to come home soon.

Shen Qianan was concerned about Shi Nuan. She had even developed an emotional attachment to her.

She got upset whenever she recalled that Shi Nuan was pregnant, but the virus was still inside her.

"Don't worry! You two are sisters. You're concerned about her, and she's just as concerned about you!" Huo Ling did not truly understand the bond between sisters because she was still young. She grew up in a different environment from theirs. There were many members in her household, but basically she was not close to anyone.

Huo Ling was closest to her brother. They had a good relationship, but Huo Shenxing was a man, so his concern and care for her were different from those of women. That was why Huo Ling had difficulty understanding their sisterly bond.

However, she could feel that Shi Nuan and Shen Qianan sincerely cared for one another. "On most nights since you went missing, Ms. Nuan couldn't sleep. She would have nightmares. Her condition fluctuated from time to time. I can only relieve her pain temporarily. You're just like her. When you woke up, the first thing you asked was about her."

"Then, how's Nuan doing now?" Shen Qianan looked a Huo Ling worriedly when she heard that. "Nuan is doing fine, right?"

"She's doing well. No worries! If you can get better soon and let her see you, she will definitely be delighted," replied Huo Ling as she took out a glass bottle from her bag. "You'll be feeling itchy or pain for some time. I have some sweets here that are made from traditional medicine. Take one whenever you don't feel well," she added. Huo Ling's innocent face had a seriousness and sober expression that did not match her age.

Hearing that, Shen Qianan looked at her in surprise, but she accepted the bottle of pills that Huo Ling handed her. Shen Qianan took one sweet out and put it in her mouth. "It's sweet?" she said.

"That's right." Huo Ling smiled, her eyes shining like stars. "I don't like bitter things, so most of the medicine I make is sweet, just like candy."

Her eyes curved into crescents when she smiled. It was pretty and comforting. Shen Qianan, affected by Huo Ling's mood, finally laughed.

"Phew!" Huo Ling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that. She fanned her face with her hands and said, "You're finally laughing. I'm starting to run out of ideas!" said Huo Ling as she pouted. "Thank you, Ms. Huo!" Her mood improved, Shen Qianan said, "Actually, I'm feeling fine now."

"You still need plenty of rest. You have been injured for a hundred days, and your body is very sick. I will get you treated it within these few days!" Huo Ling said as she helped Shen Qianan lay back down. "I'll perform acupuncture to detoxify your body. Your condition is pretty serious, so that may hurt a bit. You have to tell me if you can't bear the pain!" she elaborated.

Shen Qianan nodded. "Okay!"

Hearing that, Huo Ling took out some silver needles and performed acupuncture on Shen Qianan after lifting her hospital gown.

Shi Nuan, who was standing by the door, watched the situation in the room through the window as she caressed her baby bump. Shen Qianan flinched when the needles punctured her, but she was determined not to cry out. She gritted her teeth and bore with it.

Shi Nuan covered her mouth, afraid that she would make a sound. Tears streamed down from the corners of her eyes, dampening the back of her hand. She felt a sudden force on her shoulders, so she turned around. Fu Chengyan had come to her side and placed a thick, wide coat on her.

He did not say anything as he took out some tissue from his coat pocket to wipe away her tears.

Fu Chengyan's rough fingers grazed Shi Nuan's skin as he gazed at her adoringly. He shook his head. "Everything's going to be okay!"

Shi Nuan could not help herself. She laid her head on his chest and placed her arms around Fu Chengyan's waist. Aggrieved, she asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"

She had seen Huo Ling acting rather mysteriously. She also recalled Li Heng and Pei Huan's hesitancy. Otherwise, Shi Nuan would not know the suffering that Shen Qianan had been through.

It's all because of me. Shen Qianan would not put herself in danger if it weren't for the virus inside me.

"Don't cry. She won't want you to be sad if she knows, right?" Fu Chengyan softly consoled Shi Nuan.

In the ward, Huo Ling had already kept her silver needles. Fu Chengyan extended his hand and patted Shi Nuan on the back. "Do you want to go in and look at her?"

Shi Nuan shoved Fu Chengyan away and took the tissue from his hand. She wiped her tears dry and nodded solemnly. "Yes!"

"Good. Then, you should stop crying then. Look, your eyes have become red now." His tone was helpless as he said, "Qianan will be sad if she sees you in such a state." "Okay." Shi Nuan laughed through her tears and punched Fu Chengyan on the chest.

"Are you starting to resent me?"

"Of course not!" he replied, his gaze a doting on. "All right, get in!"

Shi Nuan opened the door. Inside the ward, Huo Ling and Shen Qianan turned to look at them at the same time.

Shi Nuan pushed the door open and walked in with her baby bump. Fu Chengyan cautiously followed behind her, for fear that anything might happen to her.

Shen Qianan laughed when she saw Shi Nuan and Fu Chengyan's acting like that.

"Nuan, why are you here?" she asked.

"Qianan!" Shi Nuan shoved Fu Chengyan's hand away. She said to him, "I can walk on my own!" Then, she got to Shen Qianan's side and cautiously pulled out a chair to sit down.

Fu Chengyan, on the other hand, was afraid that Shi Nuan would catch a cold. He quickly grabbed a pillow and placed it on the chair before allowing her to sit on it.

"Qianan, how are you?" Shi Nuan extended her hand and took Shen Qianan's hand in hers. In a matter of moments, tears welled up in her eyes again. "I'm so sorry! This is all because of me!"

"Why are you crying?" Shen Qianan's entire body was weak because she had just completed her treatment. Her heart ached when she saw Shi Nuan crying. She said, "All right. I'm fine, aren't I? Ms. Huo is a brilliant doctor. I'm largely okay now. Ask Ms. Huo if you don't believe me!"

Shen Qianan glanced at Huo Ling and gave her a look.

Huo Ling nodded. "Don't you trust my skills? Qianan is almost recovered."

"But my sister's face..."

All women were concerned about how they look, especially the stunning Shen Qianan. Her face was full of scars. Though they might have mostly faded, they still did not look good on her face.

"Ms. Nuan, this is not a big issue. Leave it to me. I'm making a medicine for Qianan's recovery. I'll give it to her in a few days, so you don't have to worry about the scars." Huo Ling patted her chest confidently. Raised her eyebrows at Shi Nuan, she said, "I promise to return Qianan to you completely whole!"
