To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 401

Chapter 401: Blood-type O

“She’s having a hemorrhage. We need type-O blood.”

“Type-O blood is needed,” the doctor said to his assistant.

A nurse left to get the blood. Su Qingsang had no spare attention for that. During surgery, she couldn’t allow herself to be distracted, not even for a second.

The pregnant lady didn’t only injure her stomach, but also her chest. The atmosphere in the operating room was very tense.

A surgeon was operating a thoracotomy for her, while an obstetrician was giving her a cesarean.

Two different operations were thus taking place at the same time. Su Qingsang and Director Chen had worked together many times, so everything was going in an orderly way.

About an hour later, the cesarean was over. Both mother and daughter were safe. The thoracotomy was finished as well. The lady was wheeled to ICU, while the baby was sent to the nursery for observation.

Su Qingsang was responsible for the written record of the operations. Huang Jie, the nurse, was still nervous. “That was a close one. I thought we’d lose her when she went unconscious.”

“Tell me about it,” said another nurse, Cheng Siyu. “She lost so much blood that we had to transfuse a thousand ml. The outcome was a miracle.”

“Indeed. That was some serious blood loss.”

“Are you gossiping?” Su Qingsang glanced at them.

Huang Jie fell silent, then turned and quickly left. Su Qingsang glanced at the patient’s medical records and finished the report of the operation.

Soon, the medical examination report of the baby was brought to her. Su Qingsang went through it, confirmed that there was no problem, then copied and saved all the records.

After finishing all those, she went to keep Xiang Caiping company.

“You must be tired.” Xiang Caiping’s injury hadn’t healed yet, so she couldn’t move at the moment. However, she could already lean on the hospital bed and feed herself.

“No,” Su Qingsang looked at her, took out the lunch that Huo Jinyao bought for her.

Huo Jinyao had Yang Wenchang deliver the food to the hospital. The soup was well cooked, very suitable for patients.

Xiao Ning quickly set the table.

“You have work to do. You don’t need to come here.” Being taken care of by her daughter made Xiang Caiping feel awkward.

“Mom, I do have work to do, but I also need to eat.”

“That’s true. You are losing weight.”

“I’m not,” Su Qingsang rolled her eyes. “I’m not losing weight! I ate all the soup that you couldn’t finish lately. I’ve gained extra weight.”

“That’s good,” Xiang Caiping looked at her, thinking that she was skinny. “Girls need to be strong.”

“I don’t want to be fat,” Su Qingsang was happy with her current body shape. “Huo Jinyao might leave me if I get fat.”

“I heard that. Don’t you say that. Even if you got twice as big as you are now, I wouldn’t think of leaving you.”

Huo Jinyao’s clear voice was heard. Su Qingsang immediately stood up, turned and said, “What are you doing here?”

“I had a meeting with a client nearby, so I came here when it was done.”

Huo Jinyao made it sound casual. However, in fact, he came to check on Su Qingsang, as it was the first day she was back to work.

“Have you had lunch yet? Would you like to join us?”

“Sure,” Huo Jinyao walked over and looked at the food. While choosing the food, he did not only think about what Xiang Caiping needed but also about what Su Qingsang liked.

“Not bad. Did Wenchang bring this to you?”

Delivering the food was not a part of Yang Wenchang’s job, but Huo Jinyao didn’t trust anyone else with it.

“Yeah,” Su Qingsang nodded and added, “You have a good assistant.”

Huo Jinyao glanced at her and said, “You’d think that he has to be good if you knew how much I pay him every year.”

“How much?” Su Qingsang asked without thinking. Huo Jinyao gave her a number that made her eyes widen.

“So much?”

“Yeah. Wenchang is very capable.” Yang Wenchang handled many things very well, so he deserved the good payment.

“So well-paid,” Su Qingsang said. “Being a doctor is nothing to that. I might as well apply to be your assistant.”

Huo Jinyao laughed and pinched her cheek, despite the fact that there were other people in the room.

“I’d never let you do such a hard job. You should just be Mrs. Huo.”

“Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo are such a lovely couple,” Xiao Ning couldn’t help but join the conversation.

Xiang Caiping said smilingly, “Yes, they are. Now I’m just waiting for them to give me a grandchild.”

Su Qingsang felt slightly awkward. She glanced at Huo Jinyao, worrying that he might accidentally expose the truth.

“You will have some,” Huo Jinyao put an arm around Su Qingsang’s shoulders and said, “Sooner or later. Mom, be patient. We will have twins, a baby boy and a girl, and you’ll be busy taking care of them.”

“That will be perfect. I’m going to believe in you,” Xiang Caiping laughed. “I will not be happy if you don’t give me twin grandchildren.”

“What are you guys talking about?” Su Qingsang couldn’t bear listening to that. Could she possibly decide on the number of children? “What will you do if I only have one child?”

“Nothing,” Huo Jinyao put his arm around her waist and said, “I will love the baby so much. I will love whatever comes from you, even if it turns out to be a ball.”

“I’m not going to give birth to a ball!”

Su Qingsang realized this whole exchange was silly. Therefore, she turned away and refused to say another word to her husband.

Xiang Caiping and Xiao Ning laughed hard, especially Xiang Caiping. “Jinyao, don’t make me laugh so much. My wound might reopen.”

“Mom, are you okay?” Su Qingsang instantly grew nervous.

Xiang Caiping waved her hand and said, “I’m alright. I just laughed too hard.”

Su Qingsang gave Huo Jinyao a glance. It was all his fault. Huo Jinyao put on an innocent look, raised both hands and said, “It’s all my fault, alright? Darling?”

Su Qingsang stood up to put the rice into the bowls without responding to him.

Huo Jinyao made a step forward, looked at Xiang Caiping and said, “Dear mother, you see, Qingsang is mad at me again. Please talk to her.”

“I’m not going to,” Xiang Caiping put on a cold look on purpose, “You made a mistake, so you’ll be punished. I’m not helping you.”

“Dear mother, how do you think I should be punished?” Huo Jinyao replied carelessly. Xiang Caiping glanced at all the food before her. It could definitely make a full meal for more than four people.

“Finish all the food.”

“Sure,” Huo Jinyao raised a hand and said, “I will follow your command.”

Xiang Caiping couldn’t help but burst into laughter again. The atmosphere in the room was so happy at the moment.

Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jingyao, feeling that her heart was thumping, and she could not control it.

Her heart leaped for him, and that feeling had been spreading constantly from her heart to the rest of her body.
