No one wanted to see Qi Bufan fail to get through this difficult time and end up sleeping forever.
In the past few days since Qiao Jiusheng had not been discharged from the hospital, she had been visiting Qi Bufan regularly every day. On the first day, she had seen what he looked like, but on the third day, he still looked the same. The nurse was wiping Qi Bufan’s body, and Qiao Jiusheng happened to be by his side. She realized that this nurse was different from the one in the morning.
Qiao Jiusheng frowned. When the nurse left, she told Fang Yusheng, “Why don’t we find a separate nurse for Bufan? This way, anyone can touch his body. It doesn’t feel good.”
Qi Bufan had always been a strict person. In the past, when Qi Bufan had lived with them in the Fang Family’s house, he dressed very neatly and seriously even in the summer. He would button up a few times.
He probably did not like different people touching his body.
Fang Yusheng glanced at Qiao Jiusheng and rubbed his brows. “I was careless. Okay, I’ll do as you say.”
Fang Yusheng told the nurses about this. The head nurse said, “Everyone is quite busy. If we want to find someone to take care of Mr. Qi, the price will be relatively expensive. Besides, the nurses in the Cardiology Department are very busy. We can’t find anyone suitable at the moment.”
“Then can we get private care?”
The head nurse was in a difficult position. She frowned slightly before saying, “Mr. Fang, I suggest you find someone in the hospital. If you find a private nurse outside, our hospital won’t be responsible if anything happens to Mr. Qi.”
Fang Yusheng had also thought of this.
“Let me think.”
He returned to the maternity ward and told Qiao Jiusheng about this.
Coincidentally, a middle-aged nurse came in to help Qiao Jiusheng change the bedsheets. Upon hearing this, she said, “Our department has a professional nurse who graduated from Binjiang Medical University. Although that young lady is young, she has a lot of work experience. Mr. Fang, if you want to find someone to take care of Mr. Qi, you can look for her.”
“Oh?” Qiao Jiusheng was a little curious, so she asked, “She has a lot of work experience? What job did she do?”
The woman said, “Before she came to our hospital, she used to work at the Changkong Elderly Home.”
Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng looked at each other, both tempted.
The Changkong Old People’s Home was not an ordinary old people’s home. The people living there were all retired and seriously ill state officials. Those who were qualified to take care of them had top-notch working capabilities.
“What’s her name called?”
“Her name is Tong Jiao.”
After getting Tong Jiao’s name from this nurse, Fang Yusheng went to find their head nurse and told her about this. The head nurse was a woman in her thirties. After hearing Fang Yusheng’s request, she did not nod in agreement. “I have to ask Tong Jiao. If she agrees, there won’t be a problem.”
“Of course.”
Tong Jiao only came to the hospital at night when the morning shift ended.
Binjiang City was getting colder. Tong Jiao was wearing a beige woolen coat and a vermillion towel around her neck. Her face was fair and she looked especially playful. After checking in, she changed her clothes and switched shifts with her colleagues.
The head nurse, Chen Ling, found her. “Jiaojiao, I have something to discuss with you.”
Tong Jiao turned around to look at her as she buttoned her uniform.
The head nurse said, “Mr. Fang is looking for a nurse for Mr. Qi today. He’s very satisfied with you and wants to ask if you agree.” Seeing Tong Jiao’s eyes widen, Chen Ling thought that she did not agree, so she said, “The salary is quite high. It seems to be 12,000 yuan…”
Tong Jiao did not hear the salary clearly. She only asked, “Who am I taking care of?”
“Mr. Qi.”
Afraid that she had made a mistake, Tong Jiao asked cautiously, “What’s Mr. Qi’s name?”
“Qi Bufan. He’s the uncle you praise every day.”
Tong Jiao heard the fireworks in her heart explode.
Oh my god, this was a godsend opportunity!
She suppressed the joy in her heart and asked Chen Ling, “Why does Mr. Qi want to find a nurse?”
“Don’t you know?”
“What?”
“Mr. Qi was shot in the heart. He’s been hospitalized in the Cardiology Department and is currently unconscious.”
Tong Jiao was stunned, and the joy on her face disappeared instantly.
When she had not seen Qi Bufan appear in the maternity department for the past few days, Tong Jiao had thought that he was busy and did not have time to visit the lady surnamed Qiao at the hospital. It turned out that he was not busy with work but was injured?
“In a coma…” Tong Jiao asked Chen Ling calmly,” How many days has it been? ”
“It’s been three days.” Chen Ling could not read Tong Jiao’s thoughts, so she said, “He’s like a vegetable now. It must be very tiring to take care of him, but there’s also a benefit. A vegetable is not as picky as other patients.”
“Sister Chen, Mr. Qi is not in a vegetative state. He’s just in a severe coma.” Tong Jiao did not like the word ‘vegetative’ being used on that uncle.
Chen Ling knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she shut up.
“Let me think about it.”
Tong Jiao did not agree immediately.
She did not dare agree.
That uncle looked completely to her liking. She was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and lay her hands on him. Once she agreed, she would not be able to bear to let go. Tong Jiao was on the night shift and was quite busy at night. Three pregnant women had given birth, and two had been hospitalized at the last minute.
She was not a midwife, so she did not need to help them give birth, but she was still very busy. When she was done, it was already past five in the morning. After drinking a cup of instant coffee, Tong Jiao rubbed her sleepy head. She thought of something and forced herself to be energetic as she went to the floor of the cardiology department.
The hospitalization department was very quiet at night. Occasionally, she could see family members walking along the corridor with basins or water bottles in their hands. Tong Jiao found Qi Bufan’s ward. Qi Bufan was treated very well and was staying in a VIP ward.
Tong Jiao stood outside the door and watched for a while.
There was someone else accompanying Qi Bufan in his ward. It was not Fang Yusheng, but a serious-looking man. It was one thing for this uncle to look serious, but why was everyone around him like this?
She stood quietly at the door for a long time.
The next day, Fang Yusheng helped Qiao Jiusheng pack her things and went to help her with the discharge procedures. At this moment, Tong Jiao, who had deliberately delayed her departure time, walked over. She smiled at Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng and said, “Mr. Fang and Miss Qiao, good morning.”
“Good morning.” Qiao Jiusheng smiled, but she was wondering when such a cute nurse had come here. Why had she not seen her before? If she had seen her earlier, she could have asked her to take care of her.
“I’m Tong Jiao.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng were a little surprised.
“Ms. Tong is very young,” Fang Yusheng said objectively.
Tong Jiao smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly and said, “Being young doesn’t mean I’m frivolous and careless.”
Fang Yusheng’s expression turned serious. He guessed the reason why Tong Jiao was here and asked, “Then, is Miss Tong willing to take on this job?”
Tong Jiao did not answer.
She looked at Qiao Jiusheng and asked, “If Mr. Qi is like this, why didn’t his lover come to take care of him?”
