Chapter 4163: Lin Ya’s Secret (3)

“What? What do you mean that she might not survive the operation?”

Zhixin was stupefied, not expecting Bella’s wound was so serious.

Qin Chu looked calm as if he had expected it.

“Doctor, what do you mean that she might not survive the operation? What’s wrong with my daughter-in-law? Will she die?”

Agitated, Yang Meirong caught the doctor’s hand and demanded.

“Calm down... We’ll do our best. But the patient’s wound is critical, and we are not sure we can save her.”

Before the doctor could finish, Qin Chu walked over and said, “Let me do it.”

“Huh?” The doctor looked puzzled.

“I’m the husband of Vice Director Huo of the South Side Recuperation Center. I performed operations here before and you can check the record... If you don’t believe me, you can call Director Wu. I can perform the operation for the patient since she’s my family member and we’ll take all the consequences.”

“This... um...”

The doctor didn’t know how to answer but the priority was saving the patient.

Fortunately, some of the medical staff recognized Qin Chu and got him prepared for the surgery.

Waiting outside the OR, Zhixin, Yang Meirong, and Jing De were at a loss for what to do.

Zhixin was inexperienced and didn’t know how to handle a crisis; the only thing he knew was that he’d be devastated if Bella died.

They were engulfed in grief and didn’t notice the discomfort in Jing De’s face.

He was surprised at the guilt he felt. After all, he had done what his boss told him to do.

Was it because he had some feelings for this family after staying with them for a long time?

Did he truly take himself as the real Jing De? Was it why he felt so complicated?

He hadn’t felt so guilty when he killed people, including the children.

When they said that Bella might not wake up, he was supposed to be happy, but he wasn’t.

If Bella woke up, then he’d be finished, right? Bella would tell them the truth...

With complicated feelings inside, Jing De stood beside Yang Meirong and was at a loss for what to do next.

Now that the Young Madam was in C City, he must do everything she said, right?

At this thought, Jing De glanced at Zhixin. “Zhixin, shouldn’t you tell your sister about it?”

“No. My sister is low in spirits... I don’t want her to worry. Let’s wait until my brother-in-law finishes the operation...”

Zhixin didn’t want to disturb her sister with this news.

Yang Meirong nodded. “Zhixin is right. Mian has a lot on her plate already. We’d better not tell her this, or she’d come over in the middle of the night for nothing. Besides, she’s weak; if she overworks herself, her health might deteriorate.”

Qin Chu hadn’t performed operations for a long time, but he wasn’t rusty with his skills.

Carefully, he cleared the blood congestion in the back of Bella’s head.

The operation lasted more than two hours.

Finally, Qin Chu walked out of the OR, looking fatigued.

“Brother-in-law, how did it go?”

“The blood congestion is cleaned. The operation is a success. But I can’t say when she’ll wake up.”

Hearing his words, Zhixin’s eyes dimmed again.

This wasn’t good news. It was hard to say when Bella would wake up? What did that mean? Would she be in vegetative state?”

“Chu, what will become of Bella?” Yang Meirong’s eyes were red with tears.

“It’s quite possible that...” Qin Chu paused and looked at Jing De who stood behind Yang Meirong.

Jing De didn’t dare to meet Qin Chu’s eyes and lowered his head in guilt.
