Chapter 729 Don&apost Leave Me 2

After the surgery, none of the research and surgery team doctors went home to rest. Instead, they remained on standby in the hospital, ready to face emergencies.

Due to what happened on New Year's Eve, no one could relax on New Year's Day.

Muchen kept a close watch on Ziyue and was not in the condition to care about anything else. Meanwhile, the ever-competent Chuan arranged for the staff in Lumiere Jade House to send food to the doctors and nurses on standby in the hospital.

Lumiere Jade House was a landmark building in Yunzhou City. It had top-class chefs in its restaurant.

Ziyue's recurring condition overwhelmed the doctors and nurses. They were exhausted, but the food was delicious, so they ate a lot despite being tired.

Chuan had worked for Muchen for many years and was influenced by Muchen's habits. Thus, he also placed great importance on the New Year celebration.

After exchanging kind words with the doctors, he brought food and searched for Muchen.

He stood outside the ward and saw Muchen and his son keeping watch before Ziyue's bed. His throat tightened, and he almost shed tears at the pitiful sight. However, he gulped and forcefully calmed his emotions.

Zixi was affected by Muchen's mood and did not have much appetite.

Chuan was worried and brought him a bowl of soup. "Would you like some soup?"

Zixi shook his head and pursed his lips. Suddenly, he moved close to Chuan's ear and whispered, "Mr. Nan, why does my mother keep sleeping?"

Chuan considered for a while before answering, "It's because she is tired and needs rest."

Zixi looked down and asked, "But why did Daddy cry?"

He sensed the adults were lying to him. Previously, he had seen how red Muchen's eyes were. Although Muchen did not cry before him, Zixi knew he must have hidden somewhere and cried. He must have cried. That's why his eyes were red.

Chuan did not know what to say. Zixi continued, "When Daddy cries, it makes me want to cry too."

He rubbed his face with his chubby hands as he said that.

Chuan held his tiny hand and searched for a packet of wet tissue in his pocket. He pulled out a wet tissue and wiped Zixi's face.

Everyone was busy recently. Although they all wanted to help take care of Zixi, none had ever been a parent, so naturally, they might inevitably miss out on something.

However, Zixi never threw a tantrum and was a good kid.

"Don't worry. Your father is only feeling unwell. He will be fine once your mother wakes up from her sleep." Chuan was unsure how to comfort a child and tried to make it simple for him to understand.

Zixi nodded and seemed to understand.

Chuan patted his head and offered him the soup again. "Can you eat a bit more?"

He was worried because Zixi ate too little.

Zixi forced himself to finish half a bowl of soup before going to Muchen to accompany him.

Ziyue's condition was worrying.

Muchen remained by her bed the whole night and watched her closely. He did not sleep a wink.

Zixi tried to stay up with him but fell asleep at midnight. Seeing that, Muchen carried him to the couch.

As the sky brightened, Ziyue's condition turned for the worse.

Xiyi and a team of doctors rushed her into urgent surgery.

However, Xiyi suddenly left the operating room in the middle of surgery.

Muchen heard the door open and looked up at Xiyi.

Xiyi had a solemn expression, prompting Muchen to narrow his eyes.

Muchen opened his mouth to say something but could not make a sound.

Xiyi did not take off his surgical mask. He said, "Do you want to see her for the final time?"

"What... do you mean?" Muchen's throat felt dry, as if it was filled with sand. His voice was so hoarse that it sounded scary.

He did not wait for Xiyi to respond but pushed him aside to enter the surgery room.

One could only hear the emotionless beep of medical equipment in the surgery room. The doctors and nurses stood quietly at the side, rendering the atmosphere oppressive. Muchen dragged his leaden feet to the bed.

Ziyue seemed peaceful, but her breaths were weak. It felt like she could disappear at any moment.

Muchen's eyes turned red, but he did not cry.

He leaned down and gently kissed her forehead before lovingly tidying her hair.

Even though he did not say anything, a sense of tragedy filled the room. The doctors and nurses turned away and could not bear to watch him.

Muchen held Ziyue's hand and found it cold.

He started to speak, and his voice was barely audible.

"You promised to give me a daughter. Don't go back on your words."

"You can't keep sleeping. I'm not good at taking care of Zixi. Don't you want to see him grow up?"

"Also, your puppy, Beef..."

He talked about anything that came to mind, and his words soon turned incoherent. Even he did not know what he was talking about.

Yet, Ziyue did not show any hint of response even after he had spoken for so long.

The doctors' and nurses' demeanor indicated that Ziyue might never wake up again.

Muchen's hands shook. His gaze dulled with despair. Still, he said slowly and firmly, "Don't even think of leaving me. I will die with you. As for your son, I can't be bothered about him. Since you abandoned him, and I don't love him that much, he can remain here alone..."

The doctor and nurses could not help but exchange glances.

Has he lost his mind? What is he talking about?

"Don't worry. You can keep on sleeping. I will soon join you. If you want, I can even bring Zixi to keep you company. While you abandon us, we are not as heartless as you. We still want you..." Ziyue remained unresponsive even after Muchen said those words.

However, a few seconds later, the nurse who watched the ECG monitor closely shouted in surprise, "Doctor, look!"

The doctors rushed over and saw Ziyue's heart rate gradually recovering. Although they found it hard to believe, they did not delay.

"Mr. Qin, please leave. We will save the patient now!"

"I will stay here and keep watch. If she doesn't recover, I will bring her son to join her."

Muchen said those words calmly. The doctors were shocked, but no one had time to comfort him.

Moreover, the doctors considered Muchen's status and the unusualness of the surgery. Thus, they did not ask him to leave again.

Muchen stood some distance from the operating table and watched the doctors working to save Ziyue. His heart filled with conflicting emotions.

He knew Ziyue was afraid of death. She did not want to die and could not bear to leave Zixi and him behind.

Moreover, she had lost her mother at an early age and loved Zixi tremendously. She would never want Zixi to experience her pain. At the same time, she would never allow Zixi to die with her.

Muchen was confident that she had heard his words.

He was sure she would survive this time.

The surgery went on for more than ten hours.

After the surgery, Xiyi came to Muchen and said, "The patient's condition is stable for now, and the surgery is successful. If everything goes well, her condition will finally stabilize."

The other doctors were utterly exhausted.

Muched nodded. "Yes."

After that, he continued to keep watch by her bed.

Even Zixi could sense the atmosphere was different this time.

He insisted on keeping watch with Muchen and persisted all day and night.
