After the divorce, my ex-husband and son lined up to pursue me.

Chapter 50 is in trouble
In the hospital, the treatment proceeded as planned, and nothing unexpected happened.

As soon as Ruan Muhuai returned to the hospital, he went to the intensive care unit to check on Jiang Xia. He saw that she was still fast asleep and receiving intravenous medication. He then went to the doctor's office to inquire about the attending physician.

Upon learning that her condition was stable, he returned to his own ward.

The ordeal of going out, while preventing his wound from becoming infected, was still somewhat detrimental to his recovery. So the nurse gave him a few words of advice and quickly gave him an injection.

As usual, Ruan Muhuai was receiving an IV drip while working on his computer, checking his email inbox, and making a few phone calls with the vice president.

Time flew by, and it was already afternoon.

Just as his IV drip was about to run out, and before the needle was removed, he received a call from the old man.

His voice was filled with anger. As soon as the call connected, the old man said, "Leave this child to me. Tell Xiaxia not to contact Ruan Yuanchao for the time being!"

"I confiscated his phone! Your parents are taking your sister back to New York in a few days, and I'm taking your son into the mountains with my second brother! There'll be no one at home, and no one will be watching you. You and Xiaxia better behave yourselves. If you dare to make her angry, Ruan Muhuai, you'd better try me skinning you alive!"

Before Ruan Muhuai could even say a word, the old man finished venting and hung up.

With no family interference and no more trouble from his rebellious son, Ruan Muhuai was happy to have some peace and quiet. He then pulled up Jiangxia's medical records, only to hear a knock on the door.

Xin Rou, carrying a large fruit basket and two large bouquets of flowers, struggled to walk in, her hands almost full: "Mu Huai, how are you?"

As she spoke, she put down the fruit basket, took out a bunch of fresh flowers, and handed them to Ruan Muhuai: "I didn't like the other varieties in the flower shop, so I chose roses. I hope Jiang Xia won't misunderstand?"

Both bouquets were of roses, their vibrant red color incredibly beautiful.

Just like Xin Rou's smiling face at this moment.

Ruan Muhuai smiled and took the flowers with one hand: "It's alright, she's still in the intensive care unit, so she can't accept flowers for the time being."

Xin Rou nodded in realization, pulled over a chair and sat down, her expression turning serious: "Why are you in the intensive care unit? Are you badly injured? What's wrong with you?"

She took out her phone again: "My dad happens to know the vice dean here. He was a classmate from when we were studying abroad, and we're quite close. How about I help him find someone?"

“No need.” Ruan Muhuai shook his head reassuringly: “The examination revealed a tumor in her brain, which was in a bad location. The car accident also caused the tumor to shift, but it has been surgically removed.”

The attending physician explained to him about the tumor and said that a medical examination had been conducted, but it would take time to know the results.

Xin Rou nodded nodding: "And then? Didn't you say anything else?"

"Not for now." Ruan Muhuai watched as the nurse removed the needle. He pressed his hand against the bleeding point and shifted to a more comfortable position. "But we still need to see the medical records and tests, and we also need to see how Jiang Xia recovers. I estimate there will be a second surgery later."

Because the previous surgery only removed the misplaced tumor, there were still some remnants. Due to their very poor location, it was not convenient to remove them all at once.

Xin Rou was nervous and at a loss: "Oh, is that so? Sister Jiang Xia is usually fine, she doesn't seem like someone who is sick, how could she suddenly... Sigh, life is really unpredictable."

"Mu Huai, don't be too nervous. Sister Jiang Xia is a lucky person and will definitely turn bad luck into good. She probably won't even need a second surgery. She'll recover quickly."

Ruan Muhuai smiled lightly: "I hope so, I take your good wishes."

Xin Rou smiled and said, "Of course." But she felt a strange mix of emotions inside.

What Uncle Sato gave her was not only the medical records from Jiangxia's car accident examination at the county hospital, but also the records from Haicheng Guokang Hospital, which showed that the brain tumor had already turned into cancer, and even if the surgery was successful, it wouldn't change the fact that she was going to die!

No wonder Jiang Xia suddenly wanted a divorce.

She abandoned her husband and her son. She rushed back to the research institute and rejoined the project team.

It turns out he was dying and wanted to fulfill his last wish.

Would you make it that easy for her?

Xin Rou narrowed her eyes slightly, smiled brightly, and moved to sit beside Ruan Muhuai's bed: "Muhuai, I'm really sorry about Chaochao. I didn't expect that because of me, he would be so resistant and rejecting of Sister Jiang Xia..."

She lowered her head in self-reproach, her fingers clenching nervously repeatedly.

Ruan Muhuai grabbed her hand and gently pushed her into a chair next to the hospital bed, but his words were very comforting: "It's not all your fault."

If Ruan Yuanchao were a good child with a strong sense of self, and understood the hardships his mother had endured, how could he have fallen out with Jiang Xia and caused a rift between mother and son because of a few words from others?

The problem has arisen; the important thing is how to solve it.

Moreover, even if one were to reflect on their actions, they should first look for the reasons within themselves. Ruan Muhuai has already reached the limit of disappointment with Ruan Yuanchao and no longer wants to make excuses for him.

"Alright, let's not talk about that little bastard anymore." He said, glossing over the matter.

Xin Rou smiled and frowned slightly, then took out her phone and pulled up some experimental data from the project team: "Mu Huai, didn't I tell you? I recently invested in a research project and joined a project team. Can you help me analyze it from a business perspective..."

With a new topic emerging, Ruan Muhuai took the phone and looked at the complicated data. Some of the data seemed vaguely familiar. Without thinking too much about it, he asked Xin Rou to introduce the project's original intention and purpose, as well as its current progress.

There's a lot to talk about when it comes to these things.

The two were chatting animatedly, while in the intensive care unit, the nurse who came in to change the IV bag also noticed the problem.

"Jiang Xia? Jiang Xia, wake up..."

Since Jiang Xia first woke up last night after the surgery, she only stayed awake for less than twenty minutes before falling back asleep. She hasn't opened her eyes since and has been sleeping soundly ever since.

This……

Something just doesn't look right!

The nurse became increasingly nervous and hurriedly called out to Jiang Xia while pressing the call button to summon the doctor.

But when the doctor came in, Jiang Xia also slightly opened her eyes, as if she hadn't slept enough. It took her sleepy eyes a while to focus.

Where...am I?

The abrupt question was followed by the intense pain from her wound as the anesthesia wore off, and she couldn't help but frown, trying to suppress her pain: "Where...is my mother? Jiang...Xinxin, it's me, Xinxin..."

The doctor stared at the doctor, wide-eyed: "..."

"Aren't you Jiang Xia? Miss Jiang, you were in a car accident and have already had surgery. You're in the hospital now, and your husband..."

The doctor didn't continue, looking at Jiang Xia's bewildered and confused gaze, and hearing her murmur again, "No, I am... Where's Mom? Mom, don't say it's my sister..."

The nurse was confused, but also had a bad feeling!
