Chapter 1864: Chapter 1864: You Treat, Uncle Pays the Money

After that day, I never saw Dr. Liu and his father in the hospital again; their names even disappeared from the medical community.

The next day was the day Sizhe was going to perform surgery on Little Lu’s mom. Jian Dan suddenly sat up first thing in the morning; it was already past 7 o’clock, and the surgery was supposed to start at 8:30!

Without bothering with anything else, Jian Dan quickly tidied up and rushed to the hospital.

"Little Lu, she’s already in the operating room." Jian Dan jogged over to Cheng Lu’s side.

"Mm! Jian, what do I do? I’m so scared!" Cheng Lu nervously gripped Jian Dan’s hand.

Feeling Cheng Lu’s cold hand, Jian Dan raised her hand to comfort Cheng Lu’s back, "Don’t worry, everything will be fine!"

"Yes, Little Lu, it’ll all be alright." Lin Kun held Cheng Lu’s other hand tightly, reassuring her.

The surgery went on for over five hours without ending; those five hours were like five centuries to Cheng Lu.

"Why is it taking so long?" Cheng Lu leaned against the wall, rubbing her hands constantly, her eyes full of anxiety.

"Little Lu, don’t rush, this heart surgery tends to take a long time!" Jian Dan began to comfort her.

Just as Jian Dan finished speaking, the light indicating surgery in progress went out.

The door to the operating room slowly opened, and Cheng Lu rushed up like an arrow.

Sizhe walked out, slowly removing his mask. The serious expression on his face instantly turned into a big smile, "The surgery was very successful, don’t worry! Your mom will be sent back to the ward shortly."

Cheng Lu, who had been frowning with worry, finally relaxed at that moment; her expression immediately brightened, and tears welled up uncontrollably in her eyes.

"Little Lu, this is a happy occasion, why are you crying?" Jian Dan said, but didn’t step forward, as someone had already reached Cheng Lu’s side before her.

"Wah wah, I’m just so happy, my mom is okay, it’s really great, Jian, thank you, truly thank you." Cheng Lu flashed a big smile at Jian Dan.

This was also the first time Jian Dan had seen such an unreserved smile on Cheng Lu’s face.

"Didn’t I say to skip the verbal thanks from now on? You owe me several meals, isn’t it about time to repay them?" Jian Dan replied with a smile.

Cheng Lu, who had been extremely tense, could finally relax a bit now.

Cheng Lu was amused by Jian Dan’s words, "Sure, when?"

"How about this noon! I just happen to be having lunch with Uncle today, why don’t the two of you join us?"

"Wouldn’t it be rude to intrude on your alone time together?" Cheng Lu asked a bit embarrassed.

"Oh, you’re overthinking it, Uncle and I’s quality time together can’t be disturbed no matter how many people come along." Jian Dan replied with a smile.

"Oh!" Cheng Lu and Lin Kun exchanged a glance of misunderstanding, then nodded.

In the afternoon, after settling Cheng Lu’s mom, the four of them found a decent restaurant near the hospital.

"I’ve been here a few times, and the food is really good!" Jian Dan said with a smile.

"Mm!" Cheng Lu couldn’t remember when the last time she came to a restaurant like this was.

As the meal went on, the four of them had a great conversation, and Cheng Lu and Lin Kun felt much more at ease than they did at the start.

When Cheng Lu went to settle the bill, she found out it was already paid.

She turned back and met Jian Dan’s eyes, "Jian, didn’t we agree I would treat?"

"You are treating, Uncle is just the one paying." Jian Dan said with a laugh.

"Jian, I..." Cheng Lu was truly at a loss for what to say at that moment.

"Don’t say anything, you’re my friend. If I ever need help in the future, do you think you can escape?"

Cheng Lu looked at Jian Dan, and her eyes reddened again...
