Six days later.

At ten in the morning.

In the ward, in front of Sun Xinxin's hospital bed.

At this moment, not only were Sun Xinxin's mother, Zhao Heng, and Gao Jun, Liu Ziang present, but also the director and Ning Yunhao.

Tian Zhen was taking care of things nearby.

In the past few days, the neural stem cells injected into Sun Xinxin's cerebrospinal fluid had played an extremely significant role, and her real-time EEG had shown fluctuations.

Especially in the past two days, the fluctuations in the EEG were more intense, and Liu Ziang and Zhao Heng calculated together that Sun Xinxin might wake up this morning.

Therefore, everyone was waiting for Sun Xinxin to wake up, which could be said to be a very significant moment.

Just think about it, what the Mayo Clinic couldn't achieve, the Eastern Hospital did, which shows that although we started late in modern medicine due to certain reasons, we are no less than anyone in the cutting-edge field of stem cell therapy that has only emerged in recent years.

Sun Xinxin's mother's heart was in knots at this moment, this feeling was indescribable.

Zhao Heng, Gao Jun, and Liu Ziang were also a bit nervous, but they were still okay.

As for the director, his expression was calm, with a hint of gloom in his calmness. Sun Xinxin waking up was a good thing for him as the director.

But this incident had completely pushed out Gao Jun's faction, and the fame of the Anesthesia and Perioperative Medicine Center was thoroughly established.

Gao Jun's background was already profound beyond measure, and now the shortcomings in technology and talent also seemed resolved, which would be the biggest opponent and threat to the director in the future.

"Dr. Zhao?"

Seeing that her daughter still hadn't woken up, Sun Xinxin's mother looked at Zhao Heng with a very uneasy gaze and tentatively asked.

It was said she would wake up in the morning, but now it had been almost an hour.

While she could continue to wait, the longer she waited, the more anxious she became, fearing that hope would turn into disappointment. This kind of feeling is hard to understand unless one has experienced it firsthand.

"Don't worry, just wait a little longer."

Zhao Heng gently reassured Sun Xinxin's mother.

Just then, Zhao Heng saw dramatic fluctuations in Sun Xinxin's real-time EEG, larger than at any previous time.

This was a sign of cortical activity, perhaps Sun Xinxin's brain had already awakened, but she still couldn't fully control her body, so she couldn't open her eyes and wake up.

This meant that Sun Xinxin's consciousness was like being in a dark void, already at a level of self-awareness.

This feeling is somewhat similar to "sleep paralysis," which is also known as sleep paralysis syndrome.

It's as if one can be aware of their body and consciousness, but cannot wake up, as if something is holding them down.

The reason lies in the fact that consciousness has awakened, but the brain cannot fully control the nerves and the body.

Sun Xinxin needed some stimulation.

Zhao Heng thought.

Thinking of this, Zhao Heng said to Sun Xinxin's mother, "Xinxin's mom, Xinxin might be about to wake up, but she needs a bit more. Her consciousness may be restored now, but the brain can't fully control the body. Do you have anything to say that could greatly stimulate her, which could speed up her awakening?"

Hearing this, Sun Xinxin's mother couldn't hold back any longer, tears welled up in her eyes as she said to Zhao Heng, "Dr. Zhao, are you saying Xinxin can hear me now? Just that she can't wake up yet?"

"Yes, she now needs your verbal stimulation. This will be the key to her complete awakening."

Zhao Heng nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, okay, I'll speak."

Sun Xinxin's mother, very excitedly, sat down by the bed and held Sun Xinxin's hand.

At this moment, she recalled her harsh demands from when her daughter was young and the merciless words she said. It was because of those words that her relationship with her daughter was actually strained.

Even this time when her daughter was injured, she wasn't by her daughter's side immediately, and her daughter didn't want her to accompany her abroad for competitions.

"Xinxin, mom knows you can hear now, and mom also knows you hated me since you were young."

"Xinxin, I promise you, as long as you wake up, I will go far away, so you won't see me again."

When Sun Xinxin's mother spoke these words, she was already choking on her sobs. She was once an athlete herself, and it was because she didn't win a medal that she placed her hopes on her daughter.

However, she deeply understood that without strict or even harsh training from a young age, it would be impossible to hope to reach the highest stages later in life.

Therefore, she was somewhat too eager in her educational methods with her daughter.

When her daughter grew up, she also reflected on herself, but the rift that had already formed wasn't so easily mended.

Hearing Sun Xinxin's mother's words, everyone present felt a pang of emotion.

And lying in bed with her eyes tightly closed, Sun Xinxin, after hearing these words, suddenly a tear rolled down from the corner of her right eye, and the fingers of her right hand moved slightly.

"Her fingers moved, her fingers moved!"

Tian Zhen, who was standing next to the bed, suddenly saw Sun Xinxin's right-hand fingers move slightly and said excitedly.

Her outburst caused everyone present to feel excited!

"Give it some more effort."

Zhao Heng leaned down and said to Sun Xinxin's now extremely excited mother.

"Okay, okay."

Sun Xinxin's mother was now so excited that she was at a loss, nodding continuously.

For more than three months, nearly a hundred day and night cycles, she had stayed by her comatose daughter's bedside, and now dawn had finally truly appeared.

"Xinxin, as long as you can wake up, I'll do anything you say."

"Xinxin, your mom really made mistakes in the past."

Once again, Sun Xinxin's mother spoke, choked up with tears.

For her generation, admitting mistakes and apologizing to their children was something that would never happen.

This "I'm sorry" coming out of her mouth already showed that she had let go of everything, now her heart genuinely only had her daughter.

At this moment, Sun Xinxin, lying in bed, her eyelids slightly fluttered, and then slowly opened her eyes.

"Mom..."

A long-lost but slightly hoarse voice came from Sun Xinxin's mouth.

"Yes! Xinxin, mom is here, mom is here!"

Hearing this call, Sun Xinxin's mother was overjoyed and moved to tears, holding her daughter's hand, she kept saying.

Seeing this scene, Tian Zhen, who stood closest, couldn't help but wipe away her tears.

Meanwhile, Zhao Heng was also filled with a huge sense of emotion at this moment.

"Director Gao, Xiao Zhao, congratulations to both of you, especially to you, Director Gao, the department of anesthesiology under your leadership has indeed achieved remarkable results."

The director, although not very calm inside, still smiled at Gao Jun and Zhao Heng and said.

"It's everyone's work, and it's everyone's achievement."

Gao Jun did not take credit, his expression calm, he said.

"Xiao Zhao, having such a young talent like you at Eastern Hospital is indeed fortunate."

Hearing what Gao Jun said, the director immediately turned to Zhao Heng and said.

His words immediately elevated Zhao Heng to the point where Eastern Hospital could take pride in him.

"Thank you, Director. The main credit goes to Professor Li Hongwei, and I just played a small role in connecting the dots."

Hearing the director say this, Zhao Heng did not take the bait but remained modest.

Being praised a few words and then losing oneself in excitement would only show such limited capacity.
