Early the next morning, before Huo Lingxiao sent Fang Yunxuan to the kindergarten, his mobile phone rang.

Fang Ruoning's face changed when he saw him answer the phone, and hurriedly walked over and asked, "Calling from the hospital?" ”

"Well," Huo Lingxiao's face was faintly excited, and there was a little joy hidden between his handsome eyebrows, "The old man has signs of waking up, I have to hurry over." ”

Fang Ruoning turned around and took his coat, went around his back to help him put on his shoulders, and then turned to him, "I'll go with you to have a look, right?" ”

"Then who will send Xuanxuan?"

Fang Ruoning turned to look at his son and asked, "Uncle Li sent you to kindergarten, okay?" ”

Fang Yunxuan nodded obediently, "Hmm." ”

Turning his head to look at the man again, Huo Lingxiao was ready, and seeing that his son was fine, he urged: "Then hurry up, let's go." ”

"Wait, I'll take my phone." With that, she hurried back to her room, and soon took her mobile phone and coat out, "Let's go!" ”

On the road, Huo Lingxiao drove, and Fang Ruoning sat in the passenger seat looking at his mobile phone.

Last night, she never replied to Chu Junzhong's call, and she kept thinking about it in her heart. But now she has to go to the hospital again, and I'm afraid it's going to be more difficult to get out, so she has to > [Good morning, it was inconvenient to answer the phone last night, what did you find?] 】

Chu Junzhong was hung up by her, and she understood it at the time, so she didn't call again, and now seeing that Fang Ruoning didn't call back but asked on WeChat, she knew that she was still inconvenient, but she remembered the news from him here, so she asked first.

Since it was inconvenient, he thought about it, and he didn't say anything about it on WeChat, worried that she would behave abnormally after learning about it and be seen by Huo Lingxiao.

After thinking about it, he had no choice but to reply: It's not important, I want to ask you what other details you know, and I'll talk about it when you have time to call.

Fang Ruoning calmed down a little and replied: Okay, I'll call you when I'm free.

After chatting, she deleted the chat records of the two, and deliberately went to chat with Feng Xuejing for a few words.

When I arrived at the hospital, almost everyone from the entire Huo family arrived.

Huo Lingyuan was already on his way to the company, and when he received the news, he turned the car around and rushed over, and he had just arrived at this time.

"Big brother, what did the doctor say?"

Huo Lingxiao also just came, and it was not clear, Mrs. Huo heard her youngest son's inquiry, and explained: "The experts are still consulting, and they need to do a detailed examination, and they will not know what the situation is until a while." ”

As he spoke, the doctors had already walked out of the ward.

Huo Zhengzhao took the lead to greet him, "Doctor, how is the old man's condition?" ”

The old expert took off the medical mask, looked at the huge Huo family in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Huo, the old man does have signs of awakening, but, through detailed examination, we think that the old man's situation is still not optimistic, and it can be seen that the old man's willpower is very tenacious, but after all, he is old, the scope of cerebral infarction is too large, and it also involves core areas such as the thalamus, plus the old man's heart is not very good, and it is difficult to even breathe on his own. ”

"You mean, he's going to be in a coma like this all the time? Living on a ventilator? ”

"It's hard to say for the time being, with the current situation, the condition will deteriorate at any time, but it is not ruled out that he has been in a coma and wakes up again after a few months. However, it can now be concluded that even if he wakes up, the old man will be highly paralyzed. ”

Originally, when I received the news from the hospital in the morning, everyone was very excited, thinking that the old man had carried it, but I didn't want to, but now I am happy.

The excitement and anticipation on everyone's faces gradually dissipated, and even the air in the corridor was suppressed and frozen.

Fang Ruoning looked at Huo Lingxiao, saw that his side face was cold and solemn, silent, and quietly held his hand and pinched it.

The man glanced back at her, pressed his thumb the back of her hand, and slowly expressed the grief in his heart.

"Forget it, let's go our separate ways, just keep people here." Huo Zhengzhao turned around, looked at the children and grandchildren of the Huo family behind him, and greeted him in a deep voice.

Huo Lingxiao raised his voice: "I'll stay." ”

"Ling Xiao, I'll accompany you." Fang Ruoning's hand was still being held by him, and when she heard him say this, she immediately whispered.

Huo Zhengzhao's gaze shifted over and looked at this unrecognized eldest daughter-in-law, as if he wanted to say something, but finally stopped his thoughts.

A group of people slowly dispersed, but before they could take a few steps, suddenly the special guards in the ICU rushed out and shouted excitedly: "Director Liu!" Director Liu! The patient is awake! Open your eyes! ”

Everyone in the corridor was startled, and quickly turned around again, incredulous, and asked, "Who is awake?" ”

"Old man Huo! Old Man Huo is awake! ”

Everyone was so surprised that they couldn't believe it, obviously the doctor just said that he couldn't wake up, but now why did he suddenly wake up again?

Without waiting for them to ask in confusion, the team of experts returned to the ICU in a hurry and continued to check.

Soon, a doctor came out: "The old man has been calling Ling Xiao...... Ling Xiao ......"

Everyone's eyes turned, and they all looked at Huo Lingxiao.

"Brother! Grandpa told you to go in! Huo Lingyuan said tightly.

"Hmm." Huo Lingxiao turned his head to look at Fang Ruoning and let go of her hand, "You wait outside for a while, I'll go in first." ”

"Okay." The old man woke up suddenly, and Fang Ruoning was also very excited, his eyes flashed, "Go quickly!" ”

Huo Lingxiao followed the nurse to change into a sterile gown and immediately entered the ICU.

The old man did wake up, but he could also see that his body was very weak.

The sequelae of the stroke not only caused him to lose the ability to move his limbs, but also his mouth and eyes were crooked and distorted.

The vicissitudes of life and the old mouth squirmed with difficulty, and it took a lot of attention to hear what he was saying.

"Sky ......"

The medical staff got out of the way, Huo Lingxiao walked over, grabbed the old man's hand, and wanted to use some force, but he was afraid that the old man would not be able to bear it, "Grandpa, I'm ...... I'm Ling Xiao......"

The old man's fingers trembled, and he obviously wanted to hold his grandson's hand tightly, but he had more than enough strength to do so.

"Grandpa, if you have anything to say......

"Ling Xiao ......" The old man was stiff and couldn't move, only his lips were crooked and trembling, "That'...... And what about the kid - the kid ......"

"Kid?" Huo Lingxiao's face turned pale, and he understood, "Do you mean Xuan Xuan, or Ziqian?" ”

"Hmmm......"

"Xuan Xuan and Ziqian are both in kindergarten, if you want to see them, I will have someone pick them up immediately."

As he spoke, Huo Lingxiao made a phone call and went out, "Ling Yuan, hurry up and arrange for someone to pick up Ziqian and Xuan Xuan." ”

As soon as Huo Lingyuan heard the call, he also realized something, and responded tightly: "Okay!" ”

"Grandpa, Ling Yuan asked someone to pick it up, and he will be able to come soon."

The old man blinked hard again, in response.

"Kid...... Change back to the Huo family's surname...... That woman, you...... If you really like it...... "The old man's physical strength is extremely weak, even though the ventilator has not stopped, but it is still very difficult to breathe.

However, hearing this, Huo Lingxiao also understood.

It seems that a serious illness has changed the old man's mind and he is willing to accept Ruoning.

"Grandpa, I understand what you mean, don't worry, we will be fine, Ruoning is a very good girl, she deserves to be the daughter-in-law of the Huo family."

The old man closed his eyes, and his Adam's apple trembled and rolled hard.

In fact, the old man still disapproves of it in his heart, but when he is dying, he can realize it himself. I don't want to die with regrets, the old man wants to see the scene of a family and a reunion with Meimei, so that he can leave with confidence.

During the time when he was waiting for the two great-grandsons to come over, the old man met the old and young of the Huo family one by one.

Fang Ruoning was not "summoned" and sat quietly on the side. Looking at this posture, she also realized in her heart that she was afraid that the old man would return to the light, so she was in a hurry to explain the future.

"Mom!" Suddenly there was a son's voice in the corridor, Fang Ruoning was startled, and hurriedly got up, "Xuan Xuan!" ”

"Mom, what's wrong?" Fang Yunxuan was sent by the driver's speeding car all the way, and he could feel that something must have happened.

Fang Ruoning squatted down, touched his son's head and explained: "Xuan Xuan, grandpa is seriously ill, I want to see you now, you will go in later, remember to call grandpa and say something to make grandpa Tai happy, you know?" ”

Fang Yunxuan's eyes widened, and although he hesitated, he still nodded.

Next to him, Huo Ziqian had already been taken into the ward by Huo Lingyuan.

Huo Lingxiao came out, Fang Ruoning stood up, frowned, looked at him with a solemn face, and said in a low voice: "Is the old man ......?"

"Hmm." Huo Lingxiao nodded, suppressing the pain in his eyes, "I'm afraid time is running out." After speaking, Junting's eyebrows were shrouded in heavy pain, and even his eyes lost their brilliance.

Fang Ruoning looked at it, feeling very distressed, and didn't know how to say anything if he wanted to comfort him.

"Big brother, grandpa let your family in." Huo Lingyuan came out and said to them.

The couple looked at each other, neither spoke to each other, and the two took Fang Yunxuan with a tacit understanding and entered the ward.

The old man's spirit was a little better than it seemed just now, but his body still couldn't move. It was probably the first time to see such an old man who was about to die, Fang Yunxuan's immature pupils showed a faint nervousness and fear.

"Xuanxuan." Fang Ruoning's hand gently fell on his son's shoulder, reminding him.

The little guy is not bad, I remember what my mother told me just now, even though he was a little helpless and afraid, he still took a step forward and shouted clearly: "Grandpa, I am Fang Yunxuan, I hope you will get better soon." ”

The old man moved his fingers, he couldn't lift his arm, and one eye could still be opened, staring at this great-grandson all the time, all the time.

His mouth was moving, and there was a voice in his throat, but Fang Yunxuan didn't hear a word clearly.

Huo Lingxiao looked at his wife, his eyes lit up thoughtfully, and after a little hesitation, he said, "Grandpa's meaning, I hope Xuan Xuan can change his surname back to Huo." ”

Fang Ruoning was stunned for half a second, and then said, "Okay!" No problem! Xuan Xuan was originally a child of the Huo family! ”

At this point, anyone who still has a little kindness will not refuse the old man's dying wishes.
