Staff Officer Du, who didn’t know what Old Master Li was expressing, only sat for a short while before the doctor stopped visitation hours. Although Old Master Li was already awake, he was very weak. It wasn’t suitable for him to be with a guest for long.
However, Old Master Li did not expect Staff Officer Du to leave so early. He was so anxious that his breathing was rapid, and white mist was kicked out of his breathing mask. When the doctor saw this, he was so shocked that he immediately said to Old Master Li, "Calm down. You’re still in a dangerous period. You can’t be agitated anymore."
Old Master Li, who was panting heavily, had been stubborn for his entire life. How could he listen to the doctor? He knew his body very well. His days were numbered.
While he was still awake, he had to hurry up.
"Lan... Lan..." Old Master Li muttered. The more agitated he was, the more frightened the doctor was. He was afraid that there would be a problem, so he immediately injected medicine with calming and sleeping ingredients into the IV drip. Unexpectedly, Old Master Li, who was very weak, couldn’t withstand the effects of the medicine. After struggling for a while, he finally closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Staff Officer Du, who hadn’t left, saw that the doctors and nurses were sweating profusely. He said apologetically, "I’m sorry, Doctor Li. My father-in-law has troubled you."
Last time, it was Doctor Li who saved Old Master Li from a stroke. This time, it was also him.
Hearing this, Doctor Li wiped the sweat off his forehead and sighed. "Staff Officer, the old master is a little hot-tempered. He likes to do everything himself. He survived two consecutive strokes and won’t be able to withstand any more agitation even if he’s lucky.
"As doctors, we can only do our best. However, whether the patient turns out fine or not sometimes depends on the patient’s cooperation. Please take care of the affairs outside. The old master’s health can’t be affected anymore."
If they continued to torture him, the doctor was afraid that he wouldn’t have much time left.
But the doctor didn’t say this.
Staff Officer Du knew his old father-in-law’s temper. He was stubborn. Even when he was sick, he was a troublesome patient.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, we’ll definitely cooperate with your arrangements. We’ll definitely persuade the old master more." He would try his best to persuade Old Master Li. But if he overdid it, he was afraid that he would anger Old Master Li even more.
With such a temper, no one could do anything about him.
Old Master Li had already fallen asleep. Doctor Li instructed the doctors and nurses on duty to watch over him before bringing Staff Officer Du out. As they walked, he talked about Old Master Li’s current situation. "It’s not optimistic. You need to be mentally prepared."
These words were very straightforward. When Staff Officer Du saw Old Master Li’s expression just now, he already had a vague feeling. Now that the doctor had made it clear, Staff Officer Du wasn’t surprised.
Staff Officer Du frowned and thought for a moment. He asked Doctor Li, "Did you tell my wife?"
"Not for the time being, but we’ll talk about it later. You should have an idea of the old master’s situation after seeing him just now. We’ll try our best."
People in high positions had to arrange many more things than ordinary people, so it was better to let them know early to avoid any problems.
After confirming that Second Old Madam Li had only fainted and that her body was fine, Madam Li rushed to the ICU to visit Old Master Li. In the middle of the corridor, she saw Doctor Li standing there with a serious expression. She didn’t know what he was saying to her husband.
