The hospital room had already quieted down. The nurse, considerate, ushered people out because visiting hours were over. Moreover, An Zhiyuan’s condition did not allow so many people around him; he was still not completely out of danger. After all, the doctor had said recovery takes time, and leaving the ICU depended on his physical condition.
Bai Xiao could finally quietly stay by An Zhiyuan’s side; he was still unable to eat anything.
A tube was inserted in An Zhiyuan’s throat because his jaw needed repair after those bastards had shattered it.
Bai Xiao gripped his wrist tightly; now that they were not disturbed, she could finally treat him thoroughly.
The special ability was quickly transferred out.
Beep beep beep.
Glancing sideways, Bai Xiao saw unfamiliar faces on the monitor above, An Zhiyuan’s heart rate was speeding up, including blood pressure and other vitals, and the footsteps of nurses and doctors were already heard hurried in the corridor.
Hurriedly withdrawing her hand.
The input of the special ability was cut off.
The doctor and nurses had already burst through the door.
Well, that door was merely symbolic anyway.
"What’s going on?"
The doctor and nurses surrounded An Zhiyuan, began detailed examinations, checking his pulse, blood pressure, and after everyone busied themselves for a while, they sighed relief.
The patient was all normal.
The nurse and doctor were embarrassed.
Explaining to Bai Xiao, "That, perhaps the machine is a bit sensitive; a slight change in the patient’s condition seemed amplified." The explanation sounded too insecure.
Is it appropriate to explain this to a family member of a patient in the ICU?
Would it not lead to future medical disputes?
But what can be done since the words were already said.
Bai Xiao smiled and sent them away, "Perhaps."
This gentle attitude almost made the nurse and doctor want to cry.
This understanding, and non-complaining family member of the patient, send us a dozen of them.
Dr. Bai is also a doctor, probably can understand their hardships, so he said nothing, really a good person.
This is what true understanding triumphs.
This is a living example.
Watching the somewhat reddened eyes of the doctors and nurses, Bai Xiao didn’t know what she had done wrong.
After sending everyone away, Bai Xiao sat next to An Zhiyuan.
An Zhiyuan was actually already conscious, but due to the tubing, he couldn’t speak; their eyes met, both unsure of what had happened.
His wife’s ability was not unknown to them.
After the anesthesia wore off, An Zhiyuan realized that facing the brutality of enemies he could clench his teeth and not utter a noise, but facing his loved ones, even this kind of post-surgery pain became unbearable, a pain that slowly tortured his will like a rising tide.
Bai Xiao clenched his hand; the tip of her fingers transferred her special ability once again, their contact did not hinder the performance of her ability, when the two were together, the ability seemed to even sense An Zhiyuan’s presence, the joyous rhythm compelling An Zhiyuan to surge forward, just like the affection of a family reunion.
Resistance seemed impossible, but this time it still occurred.
Bai Xiao stared dumbfounded as the machine beeped again.
Alright, there was an alarm here, firmly stopping their treatment.
She helplessly withdrew her hand.
The doctors and nurses swarmed in again.
After various checks, this time even the doctors and nurses started doubting their machines.
The patient had no issues! Heartbeat normal, blood pressure normal, everything normal.
Their machine was malfunctioning.
So after the third alarm, the doctors and nurses decisively changed the machine, not wanting the patient to witness their embarrassment.
This time Bai Xiao was also relieved.
With a device able to detect her special ability, continuing like this was impossible; they could only wait for An Zhiyuan to return to a regular hospital room and remove this machine before acting.
