n. He was still dressed in his usual old-fashioned manner, but his unpowdered face was flushed and rosy, making the freckles on his nose appear more prominent, yet somehow playful."Are you hot""Huh" S...Shen Yian, who knew nothing, got up at six in the morning.

Today is Monday, it's her mother's surgery day.

Because she was nervous, her mind raced and her hands trembled while she made breakfast. She almost burned the eggs.

After breakfast, at half past six, Shen Yian didn't go to disturb Song Lin. He went straight to the hospital.

As soon as she entered the ward, the nurse saw that her face was pale and quickly stepped forward to support her.

"Ms. Shen, didn't you sleep well last night"

"Well, I'm a little nervous." Shen Yian said truthfully.

"Don't be afraid, Auntie is with you."

The caregiver patted Shen Yian's back, her eyes full of warmth.

"Thank you." Shen Yian said softly, pausing for a moment before adding his gratitude.

Just like that, Shen Yian and the nurse escorted her mother into the operating room. In a short while, a nurse came out with papers for her to sign.

"Ms. Shen, I need to inform you about the risks of the surgery. Please pay close attention to where I point, and make sure you read it carefully before signing."

"Mm." Shen Yian nodded.

"Because your mother's situation is very special, and she's not in good health to begin with, this surgery could cause her paralysis or even death..."

The nurse said something else, but Shen Yian couldn't hear it at all.

She only heard the two words "death", and her mind went blank instantly.

She thought of her parents' love and care from childhood, of her father's last words before he passed away, and of Gu Cheng's pleading for her to give up. Even the fleeting image of Song Lin's face flashed through her mind.

Her mind went blank. She knew she was terrified.

"Do you understand" the nurse said.

"Understood." Shen Yian nodded curtly.

Please sign here.

The nurse put the pen on the paper.

Shen Yi'an trembled as he took the pen twice before clutching it tightly.

The nurse worried, "Miss Shen, are you alright Do you have any relatives here It would be better to have someone accompany you."

After all, it's such a high-risk surgery that no one can guarantee anything.

What if... when the time comes, how will Shen Yian, all alone as a woman, cope

In hospitals, people have been known to cry hysterically and even jump from windows after hearing that a loved one has passed away.

Shen Yian shook his head firmly: "I can do it myself."

Today, Mom had surgery. She didn't tell Aunt Mo and Song Lin.

This icy feeling of dread, she could bear it alone. Why burden others with it

Unexpectedly, at that moment, the caregiver came over and gently helped her up.

"Nurse, don't worry, I will stay with her."

Shen Yian looked gratefully at the nurse and finally managed to sign his name with a bit of strength.

After the nurse confirmed, she went into the operating room. Not long after, the surgical lamp lit up.

Shen Yian's heart skipped a beat.

Unknown how long he had stood there, the attendant pushed Shen Yian's arm.

"Ms. Shen, I heard your phone in your bag vibrating constantly, is someone looking for you"

"Okay."

Shen Yian came back to his senses and moved slightly, feeling a stiffness all over his body.

Finally, it was the caregiver who helped her sit down, which eased the numb pain.

She took out her phone and discovered it wasn't someone calling, but her colleagues' group chat was going crazy with everyone being @'d.

Shen Yian originally didn't want to look, but worried about missing out on work, so he clicked it open and took a glance.

Unexpectedly, what came into view was a completely different Xu Manman..Thinking about it, Shen Yian set the group messages to Do Not Disturb and continued doing his own thing.I fell asleep by accident in the end.When she woke up again, it was already dark outside. She w...
