Chapter 145 - 145: What Can I Say
After passing through a long corridor, Lu Haiqiao pushed open the door and entered the VIP ward of the Orthopedics Department.
With the help of the nurse, Wu Sancai could already sit up.
There was a fluffy pillow behind his waist, and his phone was placed on the bedside table.
At this moment, it was playing an audiobook.
“A man doesn’t contribute to the country. Instead, he sighs here. What is a man…”
It was a Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Wu Sancai was immersed in the story and didn’t notice that someone had entered the ward. He only opened his eyes when he smelled a unique fragrance of rice.
“Haiqiao, you’re here.” Wu Sancai glanced at the takeaway box and recognized the familiar logo. He beamed. “You even brought me food.”
Lu Haiqiao walked to the cabinet and opened the outer packaging with her eyes lowered. “You’re injured, so I naturally have to take care of you. Do you expect your daughter, who’s far away from home, to come over and look after you?” Wu Sancai was speechless.
Lu Haiqiao either didn’t say anything, or she would say something that other people didn’t know how to respond to.
There was a strange silence in the ward for a short time.
Wu Sancai picked up his phone and turned off the audiobook.
After a few seconds of silence, he sighed. “Haiqiao, actually, she has her own difficulties. Please don’t blame her.’
“I haven’t even met her. How can I blame her?” Lu Haiqiao opened the lid of the takeaway box and put some side dishes on the porridge. “Besides, she’s your daughter. If you don’t mind, what else can I say?”
She then walked to the bed with the porridge.
Wu Sancai was about to take the bowl when Lu Haiqiao moved back.
She pulled a chair over and sat down. She held the porridge in one hand and a spoon in the other. “It’s hot.”
Lu Haiqiao scooped up a spoonful of porridge and carefully blew at it. Wu Sancai’s throat tightened. He had many things to say, but he didn’t know where to start. He could only shake his head and smile bitterly through his sore eyes.
Feeling that the porridge was already at an acceptable temperature, Lu Haiqiao looked up and reached out.
She brought the spoon to Wu Sancai’s mouth. Seeing that he didn’t move, she said in a casual tone, “Get better first. We’ll talk about the rest later.’
After feeding him the porridge, Lu Haiqiao tidied up the takeaway box. Recalling what the deputy director had said yesterday, she asked, “Sir, have you thought of which treatment plan to use?”
Wu Sancai, who was filled with worries, didn’t have the energy to think about these things.
He waved his hand. “You decide. I have no problem with that.”
“Then I’ll discuss it with the deputy director. I’ll tell you when there’s a result.” Lu Haiqiao threw the takeaway box and other trash into the trash can. When she returned, she suddenly asked, “Sir, why didn’t I see the ‘High Mountains’ when I went to your house to pack yesterday afternoon?”
Hearing this, Wu Sancai subconsciously curled his fingers under the blanket.
Was she not even willing to leave something that was behind? That was his only souvenir.
After chatting with Wu Sancai for a while, Lu Haiqiao went to the Deputy Director’s office.
In the end, they decided to use steel plate internal fixation surgery.
She wanted to tell Wu Sancai the results, but when she returned to the ward, she bumped into the nurse who had just walked out.
Upon hearing that Wu Sancai had fallen asleep, Lu Haiqiao didn’t disturb him. She gave the nurse some instructions and left the hospital.
As soon as she got into the car, she received a WeChat voice message from Xu Duo.
Feeling a little hungry and having not seen each other for a long time, Lu Haiqiao agreed..
