After arriving at his office, Fu Cheng put down the documents and immediately made a phone call.

Yao Yao's surgery went smoothly, and he should thank Aunt Zeng.

After the call connected, Fu Cheng spoke first, "Aunt Zeng, thank you for your help. I will definitely visit you in person when I have time."

A hearty laugh immediately came from the other end of the phone, "Then you'll have to make an appointment in advance, kid."

Fu Cheng smiled and agreed.

The Fu and Zeng families are old friends. He could say that he grew up under the care of Aunt Zeng, and he knew Aunt Zeng quite well. As a nationally renowned obstetrician and gynecologist, Aunt Zeng had a simple lifestyle and was rarely seen.

When she's working, she's busy with hospital visits and academic exchanges across the country, making it difficult for even patients to get an appointment with her, let alone others. During her long holidays, she travels around the world.

Although Aunt Zeng is an obstetrician and gynecologist, she is also a non-marriage advocate. Although she is nearly fifty years old, it is difficult for most people to guess her real age. Even face to face, they would think she is at most in her thirties.

Fu Cheng usually only runs into her occasionally when he sends greetings during holidays; he rarely sees her otherwise.

After a moment of silence, Fu Cheng said, "No matter what, I still want to thank you."

Aunt Zeng across from me smiled and said, "As a doctor, I'm very happy to be able to save a precious life and a family with my professional knowledge. It's my honor. You're helping me accumulate good fortune..."

Fu Cheng smiled again but didn't say anything.

"However, if you can't book me, you can ask Ruijie to go out and have some fun together. You two haven't seen each other in a long time, have you?"

Zeng Ruijie is Aunt Zeng's nephew, and Aunt Zeng watched him grow up. He is about the same age as Fu Cheng.

As she was speaking, someone next to her reminded her, "Dr. Zeng, the next surgery is about to begin."

Zeng Huizhen shouted into the phone, "I'll be right there."

Then he said to Fu Cheng, "Xiao Cheng, I have another surgery. Let's talk next time."

After saying that, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

If Aunt Zeng hadn't mentioned it, Fu Cheng would have almost forgotten that he had a best friend named Zeng Ruijie.

They haven't seen each other for a while; it seems they should get together sometime.

As for Aunt Zeng, she never asked Fu Cheng about the rescued person, because to her, that person was just her patient, nothing more.

This is what Fu Cheng admires most about her; Aunt Zeng is the person he knows who lives the purest life.

……

When Fu Cheng finished his phone call and left the office, Lu Shiyi was still at the hospital with her sleeping sister.

Not long after, her best friend Tangtang also arrived.

Tang Yiran contacted her to discuss a dinner gathering for the three of them, but Yao Yao suddenly had an accident and was hospitalized, so she rushed over as soon as she found out.

At the door of the ward, Tang Yiran saw Lu Shuyao sleeping unconscious on the hospital bed, and her best friend Lu Shiyi by her side. She was somewhat surprised.

Under these circumstances, she rushed over with great concern upon hearing the news, only to find that neither Yao Yao's husband nor her in-laws were there.

Tang Yiran felt a pang of emotion, but she neither asked nor mentioned it. She quietly opened the door and went inside, softly calling out, "Eleven."

Lu Shiyi turned her head and saw her best friend. She glanced at her sister and then pointed to the door, indicating that the two of them should go to the ward together.

My sister is fast asleep right now and probably won't wake up anytime soon.

The two sat together on the bench outside the ward.

"Tang Tang, thank you for coming." Lu Shiyi thanked him earnestly.

Although the two often bicker and act without any seriousness, Lu Shiyi will still express her gratitude very seriously and formally when it is time to do so.

"No need to thank me. I'm not used to you talking to me so seriously all of a sudden."

Lu Shiyi smiled. "I've always been very proper, okay?"

"Hey, that's right, that's the taste. I still prefer you talking to me like this."

Tang Yiran made a joke, which lightened the atmosphere a little.

Then, she comforted her friend, saying, "Eleven, don't worry too much. Fortunately, Yao Yao is alright. She will definitely get better and better in the future."

Lu Shi nodded, just about to speak, when the phone rang.

She glanced at the incoming call and quickly answered, "Hello, Mom."

"Your dad and I are on the train now, and we should arrive at Nanshi Railway Station around 10:30 p.m.

"In the car? Dad, what brings you two to Nanshi all of a sudden?"

Lu Shiyi was a little surprised. She hadn't told her parents about her sister's situation yet, afraid that they would worry. She planned to tell them after Yao Yao was discharged from the hospital.

Did they already know? Or did they just happen to come and take a look?

Lu Shiyi wasn't quite sure.

“Yaoyao had such a big accident, and you didn’t even tell Mom and Dad. If Yaoyao’s mother-in-law hadn’t called, we would still be in the dark.”

On the other end of the phone, Lu's mother couldn't help but complain about her daughter.

She is both heartbroken and angry.

"No matter what happens from now on, you're not allowed to hide anything from me and your dad, understand?"

Lu Shi opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. She hadn't expected that Yao Yao's mother-in-law would actually call her parents specifically to talk about Yao Yao.

It's one thing if they don't take care of Yao Yao, but why did they go directly to tell their parents without consulting the sisters?

Are you afraid that I'll cause trouble for them and make them take care of my sister?

That family once again shattered Lu Shiyi's perception of the lowest limits of human nature.

After a moment of silence on the phone, she hummed in agreement and then said, "Mom, Dad, don't worry. Yao Yao is fine now. I'm right next to her. Be careful on the road. I'll come pick you up later."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Yiran asked, "Are your parents here?"

Lu Shiyi nodded and said, "Yes, they will arrive at the train station around 10:30 p.m.

Before she could finish speaking, Tang Yiran continued, "Yaoyao can't be separated from us. You can go pick up her aunt and uncle, and I'll stay here with her."

"But……"

Lu Shiyi knew that by the time she picked up her parents and rushed to the hospital, it would probably be past midnight, and her best friend wouldn't get home until at least one or two in the morning. She felt really bad about it.

Just as she was hesitating, a woman dressed as a caregiver came to the door of the ward.

Upon seeing Lu Shiyi and the other person on the nearby bench, he asked, "Hello, is this Lu Shuyao's ward?"

Upon seeing this, Lu Shiyi stood up and replied, "Yes, who are you?"

The woman was about forty years old. Upon seeing that she was indeed a family member of Lu Shuyao, she quickly introduced herself: "Hello, I am a senior caregiver at our hospital. I am here specifically to take care of Lu Shuyao. Please rest assured that we will take good care of her in every way until she is discharged from the hospital in good health."

Lu Shiyi had heard before that hospitals have caregivers who are employed by patients or their families and are specifically responsible for taking care of patients.

But she didn't hire a caregiver.

Lu Shiyi asked, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? I didn't hire a caregiver."

“We can’t be mistaken. It was arranged by a Mr. Fu. He has already prepaid half a month’s fees. I’m in charge during the day, and another colleague of mine is in charge at night, until the patient is discharged in good health.”

"Surname Fu? Fu Cheng??"

Lu Shiyi was somewhat surprised.

But the only person she could think of with the surname Fu was him…
