She tried to steady herself and calm her racing heart. She couldn’t help but ask, “Qianqian, your father has been injured previously. Would the anesthesia have any side effects? What if he wakes up in the middle of the surgery without a heart? Would anything happen to him?”
Jinqian noticed as well that her mother was the most nervous among all of them. She was even more nervous than her father who was having surgery performed on him.
“Mum, don’t worry. He won’t be awake during the surgery. I have a monitor here. Once the fluid here is about to finish, it means that the medicines are running out as well. I will ask the anesthesiologist to give me another round of it. I didn’t allow him to give too much in the beginning because it isn’t good for his nervous system. It’s better to lessen the amount.
Xie Qingyan nodded her head. As Jinqian was about to start the surgery, she continued asking, “Then….would it be possible that his brain is awake and he can actually feel the pain, but because he can’t move his body, he can’t speak? I have heard a lot of people saying that although they couldn’t speak, they could still feel the pain during the surgery.”
“That won’t happen, mum. I will be watching his vitals, and once it’s below the level I have set, I will add another dose of anesthesia.
Xie Qingyan nodded her head, “Alright. You should do the surgery now. I’m okay now.”
“Mum, you don’t have to stand here. You can sit by the couch over there. The surgery would be at least 2 hours long.”
Xie Qingyan shook her head and said, “It’s alright. I can stand here with your father. He’s a timid man.”
Jinqian did not know what to say to her mother.
“Then, why don’t you grab a chair and sit next to him?”
“It’s alright. I can just remain to standing or else, I won’t be able to see what you’re doing.
Jinqian wanted to ask her mother that even if she saw what Jinqian was doing, would she be able to understand it?
However, she decided against it.
“Sure. You can stand there then. Dad would definitely feel extremely happy with you supporting him.”
“Of course, he should. I have been dragged around with him because of his stupid heart. If it weren’t for his condition, we would have gone on a trip around the world.”
“Once he gets better, he will definitely bring you on that trip.”
“We should all go as a family!” Xie Qingyan said instead.
“Sure. We should definitely do that.”
To be honest, she had never traveled around the world because she couldn’t even find meaning in her life. She knew she had lots of money, but she was always held back because of that money. She had to support the Tang Men and get more money, and the cycle repeats itself.
As soon as the surgery started, Xie Qingyan only felt nervous, but when the surgery started getting more difficult, Jinqian could feel that something was wrong with her mother.
“Mum, the surgery is going on smoothly. You don’t have to be worried.” She was afraid that her mother would faint anytime soon and decided to talk to her.
“En. I know. I’m not worried. You can just focus on the surgery.”
Jinqian continued doing her work until…
“Mum, I am about to take out dad’s heart.”
As she was speaking, Jinqian already removed Di Jingxuan’s heart from his chest.
Seeing how her husband’s weak heart was being taken out of his chest and held in their daughter’s hand, Xie Qingyan felt everything turn black. Her body grew weak, and she fell to the ground.
However, the assistant standing by Jinqian had already been reminded by Dr. J. There were two of them who were already standing behind Xie Qingyan. Before she fell and hit her head, they caught her and placed her on a bed nearby.
