The light of the operating room was still on, and Shi Qianduo was the only one outside waiting.
Shi Qianduo could not accept that her mother was critically ill. She shut her eyes tightly and tears kept flowing.
The procedure did not last long. The door of the emergency room finally opened, and the doctor and nurse came out one after another.
Shi Qianduo stood up and went up to him eagerly. However, she did not dare to speak, bracing herself for the worst.
"The patient's heartbeat has returned to normal," The doctor said calmly." Her vital signs have been temporarily restored. We'll have her back in the ward and continue observing her condition."
Shi Qianduo wiped her tears and nodded.
Gan Tingyu had always suffered from congenital heart disease, so she was not suitable for pregnancy at all. However, she still stubbornly gave birth to Shi Qianduo. As a result, her condition worsened after the delivery. However, due to a period of recuperation, her situation stabilized. It was only when Shen Liuchun and her daughter appeared that Gan Tingyu's heart turned cold and she divorced Shi Boyong. After that, her condition had worsened day by day. She was hanging on by a thread.
However, Gan Tingyu's condition was not completely incurable. A surgery had a 70% chance of success, but Gan Tingyu had given up on it.
Shi Qianduo had always understood that her mother's sorrow brought her greater pain than her physical illness.
Shi Qianduo walked towards the ward step by step. However, she seemed to have seen a man with a tall and sturdy figure from the far corridor. Although it was only his back view, his presence could be felt. She felt that he looked familiar and quickened her pace to catch up, but the man had already left.
Shi Qianduo thought that she must have been mistaken. Otherwise, why would an unemployed person be here?
At this moment, two young nurses walked past Shi Qianduo and whispered to each other.
"That was the president of the He group, one of the four young masters of the He family!"
"He's so handsome and so young. I've seen a photo of the previous president of the He Corporation. He's in his 50s. Who would've thought that he would have such a young and handsome younger brother..."
"Of course, the youngest master used to be a soldier. His temperament and figure are definitely impressive... It's a pity that he doesn't come here often. Maybe we still have a chance..."
Shi Qianduo did not pay much attention to the discussion around her. She quickened her pace and rushed to the VIP Ward.
At this moment, Gan Tingyu had already woken up. Her face was still pale, but her eyes were warm and gentle. In Shi Qianduo's memory, her mother had always been as gentle as a lamb. She had never lost her temper. Even when Shen liuchun came to her house with her child, her mother still calmly asked for a divorce despite her misery.
"You finally remember that you have a mother?" Gan Tingyu said in a gentle voice as she looked at her daughter.
Shi Qianduo walked to her mother's side and said with a choked voice, "Mom..." She had not visited her mother in a long time. The last time she came to the hospital was when she was four months pregnant. She wore loose-fitting clothes and barely managed to hide it from Gan Tingyu. However, as her stomach grew bigger, Shi Qianduo could not hide it and lied, saying that she going abroad to study.
Right now, Gan Tingyu had no idea that she had already broken up with Tao Zisheng and had a child with a stranger. If she knew, Shi Qianduo was worried that this would no longer be a matter of emergency treatment...
"What are you crying for? I'm fine." Gan Tingyu extended a thin and cold hand, and Shi Qianduo quickly held on to it.
"I'm still waiting to see you get married and have a child with Zisheng. I'll be able to see it..." Gan Tingyu's eyes were filled with longing as she said this.
Shi Qianduo's eyes were filled with sadness.
"By the way, when did you come back? You've graduated, right?" Gan Tingyu asked.
Shi qianduo nodded and coaxed her mother, "Your daughter is excellent in both character and studies. How could she not graduate?"
"You!" Gan Tingyu smiled helplessly. "Back then, I had an agreement with the Tao family. You two would get married after you graduated. While I still have strength, I can still hold the wedding for you."
Gan Tingyu was really afraid that one day she would not be able to open her eyes again, so she wanted to marry off her daughter to Tao Zisheng so she could be at ease.
"Mom, are you in such a hurry to get me married? I'm only 19 years old." Shi Qianduo said coyly. Tao Zisheng was indeed going to have a wedding, but she would never be the bride.
Gan Tingyu stayed in the sanatorium all day, so she naturally did not know what was going on outside.
Gan Tingyu sat up with difficulty and opened the drawer by the bed. She took out a pile of documents and handed them to Shi Qianduo. "There's 30% of Star media's shares in this. There's also my real estate over the years, including a piece of land in the development zone. A new area will be built there sooner or later, so the price will definitely rise. The Tao family also plans to build a factory there. These will be your dowry. When you get married, no one will dare to look down on you."
