A Billion Dollar Exchange-Chapter 71: Successful Surgery
71 Successful Surgery
Liling paced around the corridor, her heart beat was increasing by the second.
It was three hours already but they weren't out yet?
Xin Yong was leaning on the wall, they both had worries written all over their faces.
Doctors were going in and out of the operation room, but no one was talking to them.
They were extremely worried.
After about another hour, a female doctor walked up to them.
Liling rushed to her and held her hands.
"How was the surgery? Is he okay?, will he wake up?"
The doctor smiled and patted her shoulders.
"Miss Liling, the surgery went well, he'll soon be transferred to the emergency care unit for proper supervision but if I'm correct, he should wake up in the next three days. He's a very strong man"
When Liling heard what she said, she didn't know when she hugged her happily.
Xin Yong who was by her side screamed excitedly, they were extremely overjoyed.
Liling felt relieved, at last it ended well. She released the doctor and thanked her over and over again.
Her joy really knew no bounds.
She was told she won't be able to see him till they had confirmed he was okay, so after he was transferred, she took Xin Yong to the hospital cafeteria for a good meal.
After the meal, Liling bade Xin Yong goodbye as she waved down a taxi to take her back home.
When she was out of sight Liling went home too.
She was going to get a very beautiful sleep that night.

Da Xia had been keeping a low key for a while, she didn't want to take things fast. Though she often came by Liu Wei's office, she didn't make obvious her intentions.
Liu Wei was no longer as cold as before, at least he acknowledged her presence.
Since everything was going on so well, he may begin like her at a point, after all he was single and she was obviously beautiful.
He would one day notice her. She thought.
She didn't need to worry, besides she had not seen him with any other woman, he was rightfully hers, all she needed was time and everything would fall into place.
Her dad was an old friend of Liu Wei's dad. During their youth, they had promised each other that their children would get married, if they had children of opposite sex. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
They had waited patiently for the kids to grow into adulthood before trying to bring them together. Though Da Xia knew of this, Liu Wei was ignorant.
His dad didn't see any reason to tell him about it, he was supposed to do as commanded. To him, it wasn't negotiable.
Though Liu Wei had not been told officially, any reasonable person would know what was going on.
Da Xia had told her dad she was going to handle it herself, so the parents had kept calm and waited patiently for the results.
....
Liling's dad woke up after three days. When she felt him move, she was so overjoyed, she screamed for the doctors as she hugged him with tears of joy in her eyes.
As days passed by, her dad was able to eat, though it was restricted to liquids. Liling fed him and cleaned him till he was able to help himself.
He had been asking for her mom but Liling had always told him that she was ill and in the emergency care unit and that visitors weren't permitted yet.
She wasn't prepared to tell him the truth yet. Not when he was still recovering.
By the third week, her dad was almost fully recovered, though he had not asked her anything about the bills, she knew he was bothered about it.
