“How could this be? He was sent here in time. How could things be so serious?”
Faced with such a situation, Nie Zhengyang did not know how to answer.
Birth, old age, illness, and death were completely unreasonable.
“Auntie, don’t be anxious. It’s not as bad as you think. Just wait for my news.”
With that, Nie Zhengyang glanced at Lin Yi and said to An Ning,
“Ningning, why is he still here? Hurry up and have him leave. We’re all family. Why is an outsider here?”
“He has nothing to do. He can help if he stays here.”
An Ning said calmly with no intention of chasing Lin Yi away.
The An family members subconsciously looked at Lin Yi and Nie Zhengyang, feeling that something must have happened between the two of them.
Moreover, the center of the conflict seemed to be this daughter!
“I have other things to do, but I don’t want you here when 1 get back!”
Nie Zhengyang glared at Lin Yi. “1 hope you have some self-awareness and don’t stay here like a soggy plaster!”
Lin Yi smiled and patted Nie Zhengyang’s shoulder.
“If you don’t want to end up like that person yesterday, you’d better keep your mouth shut. 1 don’t have a good temper.”
“You!”
Nie Zhengyang’s body trembled. He snorted and turned to leave.
“Daughter, come here. 1 have something to tell you.”
“Say what?” An Ning walked over and asked.
“What’s going on? What’s your relationship with that young man called Lin Yi?”
“Didn’t I tell you just now? He’s a client of our institute.”
“Impossible!”
Liu Guiqin agreed. “If it was just a professional relationship, why would Zhengyang not like him!”
“What your mother said makes sense.” An Ning’s second aunt, Liu Fang, said,
“The two of you are a couple. What do you think Zhengyang would think if you brought a stranger here?”
If Lin Yi was an ugly man, the An family would definitely not think too much about it.
However, this was the problem. The young man was too good-looking, and his daughter was not ugly. In addition, she did not come back last night. Although it was unlikely that such a thing happened, it was still a possibility.
Otherwise, his calls should have gotten through!
“He can think whatever he wants. I can stand proudly and hold my head high. In short, it’s not what you think.”
“Ningning, what kind of attitude is that!”
An Guoyong said, “Although we’re not qualified to interfere in the matters of you young people, the two of you are getting married next year. You can’t do anything to let them down.”
“We’ll talk about marriage later. I still haven’t decided on it yet.”
“Well…”
The three elders of the An family looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
“Daughter, tell me, did the two of you quarrel?”
“No, don’t think too much about it.”
Liu Guiqin sighed. “No matter what, the two of you have been together for more than a year. Besides, it’s normal for the two of you to stumble when you’re together. You can just talk things out. Look at me and your father. Don’t we quarrel a lot too? We’ve been together for so many years.”
“Your mother is right. It doesn’t matter if you quarrel. You just have to talk it out.” An Guoyong said.
“And look at him now. He’s busy running around because of your father. It means that he really wants to be with you. You can’t be too willful.”
“I understand, Second Uncle. You don’t have to persuade me about this. I’m already an adult. I know what to do.”
“Then 1 will let you think about it yourself.”
The An family also knew An Ning’s temper and knew that saying too much would backfire, so they didn’t say anything else.
Then, they each found a place and silently waited for the results.
Time passed quickly. About an hour later, a young nurse walked out of the ICU ward.
“Is An Guohua’s family here?”
Hearing the nurse’s voice, the An family members perked up and hurriedly ran over.
“Here, here! How’s the situation?”
“Who are you to the patient?” The young nurse looked at Liu Guiqin and asked.
“I’m his partner. This is his daughter.”
The young nurse looked around. “Let’s go to the side. There are many people here.”
Everyone understood and moved to a place where no one was around. The nurse said,
“You’re Doctor Nie’s relatives. Let me convey the situation inside to you.”
“The patient is already in critical condition. We are currently using a ventilator to maintain vital signs. Several chief experts, including our vice dean, have already examined the case. If we continue treatment, it will be like pouring money into a bottomless pit. So, for all of you…”
The young nurse wanted to say something but hesitated. At this point, she felt that the family should understand what she meant.
This news was like a bolt from the blue to the An family. They thought that they would be able to wait for good news, but they did not expect this!
“Old An, if you leave, how am 1 going to live?!”
Liu Guiqin broke down emotionally and collapsed to the ground. Liu Fang could no longer support her.
Tears streamed down An Ning’s face, but she was still holding it in.
“Is there really no other way?”
The young nurse nodded awkwardly. “Dr. Nie is inside. If there was a way, he would have used it for sure. Please accept our condolences. If we continue treatment, it will only be a waste of money. So, please consider what to do next. If there are other relatives, you can have them come and see the patient one last time.”
“Can I go in and take a look now?” An Ning asked.
“Yes, you can. According to the rules, we can let one person in, but only for ten minutes.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Let me go in and take a look.”
“Can I go with her?” Lin Yi asked.
An Ning looked at Lin Yi. “You…”
“I’ll go in and take a look. Perhaps there’s another way.”
“But you are…”
Lin Yi patted An Ning’s shoulder, as if giving her great comfort at this moment.
“Can you make an exception and let us go in and take a look?”
There were policies from above and countermeasures from below. As long as there were connections, it was not a problem for two people to enter.
If it were anyone else, the nurse would definitely reject them.
However, this little brother was too handsome and she could not bear to reject him.
“Alright then. Since you’re Doctor Nie’s relatives, I’ll make an exception. But remember, don’t make a sound after you enter. It won’t be good if others find out.”
“Got it. Thanks.”
At this moment, Liu Guiqin was on the verge of a mental breakdown. An Ning wiped her tears away.
“Mom, wait for me here. I’ll go in and take a look.”
With that, An Ning turned around decisively and walked toward the ICU with Lin Yi.
After entering through the door, the two of them first got disinfected in the sterile room before changing into sterile protective clothing.
“The protective suit is a little difficult to wear. Let me teach you how to put it on,” the young nurse said enthusiastically.
She had her own reasons for doing this. She wanted to get closer to Lin Yi.
“This thing is easy to wear. Why don’t you go help her? I can put it on in minutes..”
