Although proposing and taking my girlfriend to visit my "Necromantic Space" took up quite a bit of time, when Chen Yu came back to the former principal's ward, the old man had only just woken up from the anesthesia.
"This time you really went through a lot, Chen Yu. The surgery was very well done—I slept soundly and didn't feel a thing," the former principal lay on his hospital bed, an oxygen tube attached to his nose, and though his voice was somewhat affected, he seemed to be in very good spirits.
"You had a good sleep, but you scared us to death," Chen Yu, relieved to see the former principal looking well, took a seat beside him and told him about the cardiac arrest during the surgery, "You suddenly developed ventricular fibrillation halfway through the operation. I attempted defibrillation three times but couldn't bring you back, and the ECG was just a flat line. We were almost ready to declare you dead."
