Chapter 458: Chapter 459 Awakening (4)

She turned her back to Zhao Zihao and wiped away her tears, taking a deep breath. Only when her emotions had completely calmed down did she ask with a thick nasal accent, “Dr. Zhao, when can my mother leave here?”

Zhao Zihao had not left; he had been standing by her side all this time. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Given Aunt Lu’s current physical condition, it would be best if she continues to stay in the intensive care unit for 24-hour comprehensive observation. Of course, the cost of one day in the ICU…”

“It’s okay.”

It was Qin Zhiyou who quickly responded, “As long as she can recover, no matter how much money we have to spend, it doesn’t matter.”

Zhao Zihao did not speak. Only the corners of his mouth curved up slightly, indicating a hint of mocking smile, but it disappeared quickly, in a blink of an eye. It quickly turned into a harmless, mild smile: “Aunt Lu’s emotions, she can’t have any significant fluctuations. Ms. Lu, when you talk to her, you should also be careful. This time… let’s forget it. In the future, no matter what she says, it is best to go along with her wishes and not go against her thoughts.”

Lu Weixi nodded. Regardless of Zhao Zihao’s instructions, even without his orders, she had already decided to yield to her mother’s wishes in the future.

To put it bluntly, the illness of cancer, although it seems to have been successful in surgery and regained consciousness, who knows when it will suddenly deteriorate and the person is gone in an instant.

Although in the history of cancer resistance, there are not a few people who have lived for decades after contracting cancer. But that’s after all as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, more difficult than winning a lottery. Cancer has a cycle of five years. If her mother could survive the first five years, even Lu Weixi herself didn’t have the confidence that her mother could peacefully go through another five years. She had previously wanted her to participate in an experiment in America, but given her current physical condition, she wasn’t sure whether she could wait until that day.

Since her time is limited, naturally it is best to make her happy.

Zhao Zihao talked for a while about precautions, and Lu Weixi quietly listened, and noted down every point on her phone. After Zhao Zihao finished, he remained. He glanced at the time and said, “There are five minutes left in the visiting hours.”

As her mother was in the early stages of recovery from severe illness, it was not suitable for her to be overly stressed. Being able to visit her for half an hour each day was already a rarity. Lu Weixi understood this. Given the time, it was the early hours of the morning. Not only did her mother need to rest and stabilize her emotions, but Zhao Zihao and his team had also stayed up until the wee hours.

With only five minutes left, Lu Weixi felt a bit reluctant to leave. She held on to her mother’s hand tightly, “Mom, you need to rest well. I’ll come to see you again tomorrow.”

Her mother slowly nodded. Her gaze fell on Qin Zhiyou, who was standing behind Lu Weixi.

She stared at Qin Zhiyou for a few moments, opened her mouth, seemingly wanting to say something.

Lu Weixi noticed it immediately, and she leaned in, “Mom, if you have something to say, tell me.”

Her mother nodded slowly, but her voice was so weak and low: “Mom, whatever you want to say, take your time.”

“Xixi… Xixi.” Her mother’s voice was very slow and very soft. Each time she said a word or two, Lu Weixi had to repeat it, nod her head, and point to herself. After confirming, her mother continued: “Mom… hopes… you…”

For the last two words, her mother’s voice was too soft, and Lu Weixi couldn’t hear anything at all. She had to put her ear near her mother’s lips to hear what she was saying.

“Divorce.” Lu Weixi paused slightly as she got to this point, “Xixi, Mom hopes you will get a divorce.”
