Chapter 506: Alive
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This was the first time in Su Xiaoxiao’s two lifetimes as a doctor that a patient’s heart could recover after such a long cardiac arrest.
This was simply a miracle.
Su Cheng asked with tears in his eyes, “Are you alive?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s hard to say.”
Restoring his heartbeat was only the first step. Next, she had to operate on him. This was another serious test and was very dangerous.
Su Cheng choked aggrievedly. “Then do I have a father or not—”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Dad, go out for a while. I’m going to operate.”
Su Cheng walked out miserably, like a pitiful little girl who could be abandoned at any time.
Su Xiaoxiao turned to look at his lonely back and said, “Dad, if possible, call out to him from outside.”
The process of operating was extremely dangerous. Not only did it require exquisite medical skills, but it also required the patient’s strong willpower and survival. Otherwise, he would still not be able to survive.
Wei Ting closed the door from the outside.
Su Xiaoxiao opened the first aid kit and took out clean gauze, iodophor, and saline.
Then, she gripped the hilt of her knife tightly with both hands.
Operating on him was considered a second injury, so the angle had to be right. The force had to be precise to avoid cutting more new flesh tissue.
Outside the door, everyone waited anxiously and curiously.
To the people of the Imperial Astronomers, they did not believe that the old Duke Protector could be revived.
When Wei Ting brought him over, he was clearly no longer breathing. Even if he was still alive, he was only drawing his last breath. Once it was gone, he was gone.
It was not that they had never seen death. A person on the verge of death looked exactly the same as the old Protector Duke.
Rather than saying that they were waiting for Qin Canglan to recover, it was more like they were waiting for Wei Ting and the others to completely accept reality.
Su Cheng did not know what these people were thinking.
He only believed in his fat daughter. The fat daughter asked him to call out to his father— Su Cheng looked at the closed door. “Dad—I‘
He made the sign of a heart at the top of his head.
Su Cheng spread his wings and jumped over. “Dad—”
He made the sign of a heart at his chest.
Su Cheng walked over again. “Dad—”
He pulled his son-in-law over to make the sign of a giant heart.
Wei Ting was speechless.
The corners of the imperial astronomers’ mouth twitched.
Where did this fool come from?
Had he gone crazy from the agitation?
In the room, Su Xiaoxiao decisively pulled out the dagger from Qin Canglan’s chest.
Without the dagger to block the bleeding hole, blood gushed out of his blood vessels. Su Xiaoxiao quickly took out the gauze at the side and pressed it down. The adrenaline took effect, and Qin Canglan did not have a second heart attack.
Next was stopping the bleeding, debriding, and suturing.
Every step was like snatching a person from the clutches of the King of Hell.
Su Xiaoxiao remained calm and composed. Like the hand of a god, she pressed down on the King of Hell’s throat.
Sikong Yun came to the observatory.
He looked at the stormy capital, his robe drenched by the storm.
But gradually, the rain began to stop.
At this moment, his disciple walked upstairs quickly. “Master! Master! Qin Canglan is alive!”
After the storm, the capital was silent.
He looked at the distant sky.
Had the destiny of the General Star… really been changed?
From this moment on, he could not see through Qin Canglan’s fate.
Sikong Yun went downstairs and came to the room where Qin Canglan was treated.
Su Xiaoxiao had just come out. Her clothes were covered in blood, and a few drops of blood splattered on her cheek.
Sikong Yun looked at her without blinking.
This was a 16 or 17-year-old girl, but her eyes revealed stability and determination that did not belong to her age.
He was sized up Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Xiaoxiao looked at him.
As if guessing what he wanted to ask, Su Xiaoxiao said, “He hasn’t completely passed the critical period and can’t move easily. He needs to recuperate in the Imperial Astronomy Center for a few days. I wonder if it’s convenient?” “It’s fine,” Sikong Yun said.
The registrar, who had been guarding at the side for half a day, was anxious.
What was it?
Grand Astronomer, you took in Qin Canglan!
It was fine if he interacted with Qin Canglan in private, but did he think that it was not enough to violate His Majesty’s taboo?
“There’s hot water in the next room,” Sikong Yun said to Su Xiaoxiao.
The disciple behind him was stunned.
Hot water?
Ah… oh.
The disciple went to prepare hot water.
“Thank you,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
She turned and walked towards the next room.
Sikong Yun suddenly said, “I once thought of changing my fate.”
Su Xiaoxiao stopped in her tracks and looked at him calmly.
“I failed.”
With that, Sikong Yun turned around and went up Stars Pavilion.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know Sikong Yun’s past, so she naturally didn’t know what he was referring to. However, since it could stump him, the fate that needed to be changed… must be abnormally difficult.
Su Cheng guarded his father by the bed.
Wei Ting came out of the room and went next door.
The disciple had already brought hot water for Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao was washing the blood on her hands and face.
She raised her hand to get a towel.
Wei Ting handed it to her first. “You’re tired. Rest for a while. I’ll keep watch. I’ll call you if there’s anything.”
“I can’t sleep,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
To be honest, it was rare for this body to not be able to sleep. Too many things had happened today.
She had just saved Qin Canglan and kept her emotions in a small box in her heart. Now, she could take it out and smooth it out for the time being.
“We’ll talk while we eat.”
Wei Ting opened the food box on the table.
Su Xiaoxiao hadn’t eaten dinner and had been busy until now. She had forgotten her hunger.
The sudden fragrance of the food awakened her taste buds, and she was instantly hungry.
Wei Ting scooped a bowl of vegetable lean meat porridge for her. “Dad has some too.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Su Xiaoxiao was used to being alone. She was actually not used to someone suddenly doing everything for her.
“Yes… you eat too.”
She said.
“Okay.” Wei Ting scooped a bowl for himself. The two of them ate quietly for a while.
Su Xiaoxiao’s lips moved.
Wei Ting asked, “What do you want to say?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “About the kind person who applied the blood-staunching elixir to my grandfather and left an umbrella, I suddenly remembered something. It was the time when Princess Hui An was kidnapped by the White Lotus Society. I fought with the people of the White Lotus Society on the mountain. One of the shadow guards was very powerful. I wanted to kill him, but I had to pay a price. At that time, someone secretly killed that shadow guard.”
A trace of confusion flashed across Wei Ting’s eyes.
“He used this.” Su Xiaoxiao opened her pouch and took out the swallowtail dart.
“I’ve asked Su Mo. This is neither from the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate nor the Protector Duke’s Estate. Do you know it?”
Wei Ting took the swallowtail dart and checked it carefully against the candlelight. “I’ve never seen it before.”
Su Xiaoxiao muttered, “Strange, who is that person? Why did he do it?”
Wei Ting looked at the swallowtail dart and said, “Perhaps he just saw injustice along the way. Or perhaps he’s also an enemy of the White Lotus Society.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded.
Wei Ting said, “Do you suspect that the owner of this swallowtail dart is the kind person tonight?”
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I just suddenly thought of him. Perhaps it’s not the same person.”
If that was the case, that person was not seeing injustice or making an enemy of the White Lotus Society. He was really helping them in the dark.
But who would do that?
