Chapter 219 Mother-in-law's Plea to Stay
Chapter 219 My Mother-in-Law's Assistance
"Oh my god..."
Zhang Jianguo completely lost his composure. He pointed at the screen, then at Ning Xiuyang, his voice trembling.
"This...this is a miracle! A medical wonder! This is impossible...this completely overturns modern medicine!"
"boom!"
These words, like the most beautiful celestial music, struck Shen Yourong's heart heavily.
She was stunned at first, then an overwhelming wave of joy washed over her.
"mom!"
Overjoyed, she burst into tears and rushed to her mother's bedside, tears streaming down her face like a broken string of pearls.
Zhou Xiulan also felt it; the weakness and pain that had lingered in her body for years seemed to be slowly subsiding, and a warm current was rising from her abdomen, flowing to her limbs and bones, bringing long-lost strength.
Looking at the mother and daughter crying tears of joy, and then at the completely illogical and terrifying data on the screen, Zhang Jianguo, the attending physician who had been arrogant and domineering before, now seemed to have all his strength drained away, and slumped in his chair in a daze.
His medical worldview, built up over decades, was shattered at this moment by that tiny black pill.
He kept repeating the same sentence to himself.
"My God... this has shattered my understanding... what kind of medicine is this...?"
In the ward, sobs and mutterings mingled together.
Shen Yourong turned around excitedly, looking at Ning Xiuyang with teary eyes. This man, once again, had saved her and her family like a god.
The love and gratitude in her heart had become so intense that it could not be overwhelmed.
She decided to immediately process her mother's discharge from the hospital!
Zhang Jianguo was helped out of the ward by a nurse, looking distraught. He needed time to process this storm that had overturned his decades of medical knowledge.
In the ward, only one family remained.
"Mom!" Shen Yourong cried tears of joy, tightly holding her mother's hand, but she could no longer stop crying.
Zhou Xiulan also felt the long-lost power in her body. The weakness and stinging sensation that had tormented her for years were fading away at an incredible speed, replaced by a warm current that flowed slowly through her limbs and bones.
She patted her daughter's hand, a touch of color returning to her pale face. Her gaze went past her daughter's shoulder and landed on the young man who stood calmly to the side.
"Good child...Quick, quickly thank Xiaoyang for me." Zhou Xiulan's voice was still a little weak, but her strength had clearly increased.
Shen Yourong then realized what was happening, quickly wiped away her tears, turned around, and looked deeply at Ning Xiuyang with her beautiful eyes filled with endless gratitude and love.
She had so much to say, yet she felt that any words would be pale and powerless in the face of such kindness.
In the end, all the words were reduced to just three.
"Thank you……"
Ning Xiuyang smiled, stepped forward, and without any hesitation despite Zhou Xiulan's presence, naturally pulled her into his arms, gently patted her back, and said softly, "Alright, it's a wonderful thing that Auntie is better now. You should be happy. Crying will make you look ugly."
His refreshing masculine scent and warm embrace instantly gave Shen Yourong a sense of security, and the last trace of unease in her heart completely dissipated.
She nodded obediently, nestled in his arms, and savored this hard-won peace.
Looking at the two embracing each other from her hospital bed, Zhou Xiulan smiled with relief.
Although she was ill, her mind was not confused.
From the moment her daughter first told her that a 21-year-old man had helped with the medical expenses, she had a feeling something was amiss.
At first, she was worried that her daughter would be deceived, or that the other party was just playing around.
But now, this young man is not only generous, using his daughter's online live stream to help solve the 500,000 yuan medical expenses, but he has also produced a "miracle drug" that pulled him back from the brink of death.
Such kindness is no exaggeration; one could say they were given a second life by their parents.
Seeing the love in her daughter's eyes when she looked at him, and the young man's heartfelt doting on his daughter, Zhou Xiulan's unease completely disappeared.
Age difference becomes insignificant in the face of a life-saving grace and a daughter's happiness.
"Ahem." Zhou Xiulan coughed twice on purpose.
Shen Yourong blushed and quickly stepped out of Ning Xiuyang's arms, somewhat embarrassed as she straightened her clothes.
"Mom, how are you feeling? Would you like some more water?"
Zhou Xiulan waved her hand and beckoned to Ning Xiuyang, her face beaming with the satisfaction of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law: "Xiaoyang, come and sit down."
Ning Xiuyang readily agreed and pulled up a chair to sit down by the bed.
"Auntie, how are you feeling now? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
"So comfortable, so very comfortable!"
Zhou Xiulan said cheerfully, looking Ning Xiuyang up and down. The more she looked, the more she felt that this young man was handsome and had an extraordinary bearing. "We really owe you a lot this time. Otherwise, this old body of mine would probably be here. Thank you, Auntie. The entire Shen family thanks you!"
"Auntie, you flatter me. You Rong and I are family. Your business is my business." Ning Xiuyang called You Rong by her name with perfect naturalness, which could be considered as formally clarifying their relationship in front of his elders.
Shen Yourong stood to the side, and when she heard him say that, her heart was filled with sweetness, her cheeks flushed, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at her mother.
"Oh! Good, good!" Zhou Xiulan smiled even more broadly upon hearing this. She grabbed Ning Xiuyang's hand and patted it hard. "With you saying that, Auntie is relieved."
She paused, then changed the subject, looking at her daughter: "Yourong, now that Mom's better, I think we shouldn't stay in this hospital anymore, it's bad luck! Go and get the discharge papers done, let's go home!"
"Huh? Do it now?"
Shen Yourong hesitated for a moment, "Mom, how about we observe for another night? We can wait until all the test results are in tomorrow before making a decision?"
"Observe what! Didn't you hear what that Dr. Zhang said just now? Miracle! Divine intervention! I know my own body best; it couldn't be better!" Zhou Xiulan glared at her, her tone leaving no room for argument. "Are you stupid? You don't believe in a great miracle like Xiao Yang, but you believe in that doctor who almost scared me to death?"
Ning Xiuyang, listening from the side, couldn't help but laugh. This future mother-in-law was truly a fascinating person.
"That's right, You Rong. Since Auntie wants to be discharged, let's go home to recuperate. The environment at home is always better than the hospital," Ning Xiuyang chimed in.
"But..." Shen Yourong still hesitated.
"No buts!"
Zhou Xiulan gave the order directly, "Go now! I don't want to stay here for another second. Let Xiaoyang go with you; he knows a lot. I'm worried about you going alone."
Having said that, Shen Yourong had no choice but to nod in agreement: "Well... okay then, Mom, wait for me a moment, I'll get right away."
As Zhou Xiulan watched her daughter obediently prepare to leave, she added seemingly casually, "By the way, Xiaoyang, our house, although a bit small, is well-maintained. Don't leave tonight, stay with us and let Auntie properly thank you."
