Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Grandpa Jian, Grandma Jian, Jian Shuxing, Wen Nuan, and Jian Yuncheng got off the plane. They headed straight to the hotel that they had booked beforehand.
This time, the entire family was out together. However, it wasn’t because of business in Beijing.
Rather, it was because Jian Yiling’s birthday was coming up soon.
This year, they wanted to spend time with Jian Yiling on her birthday.
Their little girl was finally turning eighteen years old.
As she thought about this, Grandma Jian wanted to shed tears of joy.
She remembered how her little girl looked when she was first born.
Then, she remembered her wobbly appearance when she first started to walk.
She also remembered the first time Jian Yiling called her grandma. Her voice was incredibly soft and babyish.
In fact, back then, Jian Yiling crossed her arms and ordered her brothers to piggyback her!
Time really flies… In an instant, her little girl was already eighteen years old.
After they arrived in Beijing, Grandma Jian also contacted Jian Yunnao and Jian Yujie who were also in the capital.
They agreed to go to Jian Yiling’s place to give her a surprise.
However, that didn’t end up happening. As soon as Grandma Jian got off the plane, she felt unwell.
As everyone else was so happy, she didn’t say anything.
Yet, when they arrived at the hotel, Grandma Jian lost consciousness.
“Mother!”
“Grandma!”
Grandma Jian heard the voices of people around her as she drifted out of consciousness.
This was meant to be a surprise for Jian Yiling. However, it ended up as a shock.
No one expected Grandma Jian to faint.
The Jian family quickly sent Grandma Jian to the nearest hospital. The hospital was a subsidiary of Beijing University.
The doctor there told the Jian family that Grandma Jian was suffering from a cerebral stroke. Cerebral strokes were also known as cerebral hemorrhage.
“There’s extravasated blood in the brain. It needs to be removed as soon as possible in order to reduce the intracranial pressure. In addition, you should be mentally prepared. The success rate of this surgery is not 100 percent. And even if the surgery is successful, she may still suffer from after-effects.”
A cerebral stroke must be operated on as soon as possible. The sooner the better.
“What are the potential after-effects?” Jian Shuxing asked the doctor nervously.
“Hmm, I’m not sure either. The brain is incredibly complex. Difficulties in speech and action are all possible.”
The doctor’s words made the Jian family’s faces go pale.
“Then, what’s the success rate?”
“We will try our best as it’s our duty. However, we can not guarantee the outcome. Every surgery has its risks.”
Whilst Jian Shuxing and the others discussed this with the doctor, Grandpa Jian was contacting one of his friends. His friend Mr. Qiu was an esteemed figure in the medical circle. He hoped that Mr. Qiu would be able to find them a reliable surgeon.
Grandma Jian must be fine!
As they couldn’t help with anything else, the only thing that they could do was to find her a skilled surgeon. This would improve the success rate of the operation.
However, where could they find such a person in this short period of time?
Grandma Jian could not afford to wait for her surgery!
###
Jian Yiling froze when she received the call.
Her family hadn’t called her. Instead, someone from the hospital called her.
Grandma Jian had a stroke… She was currently unconscious and in urgent need of an operation…
As the events leading up to such a situation didn’t happen, Jian Yiling assumed that Grandma Jian wouldn’t have a stroke.
However, it seemed as though she couldn’t escape fate.
Even if certain things didn’t happen, Grandma Jian still had a stroke.
When Jian Yiling arrived at the hospital, the doctor was preparing to operate on Grandma Jian. They asked the Jian family to sign the documents.
Surgery had to be begun immediately. Every minute was crucial.
