Chapter 228: Chapter 228: The Most Important Thing is That Mother Survives

Nan Qingqing heard Nan Zhuoyuan’s angry shout and instantly tears of grievance welled up in her eyes.

Her frail body trembled slightly, as if she were deeply aggrieved; her eyes reddened, and tears plopped down while her voice softened.

"Big brother, I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose, I was just a bit worried about mom, so I wanted to go in and see her."

Nan Zhuoyuan looked at her feigned weakness and felt a hint of irritation rise in his heart.

Thinking of Nan Yu, who was treating their mother in the ward at that moment, he closed the ward door, stood in front of Nan Qingqing, and tried to calm himself down.

He placated her with pretense, "Qingqing, Dean Li is treating our mother, and it’s necessary to maintain quiet. We shouldn’t disturb him here. Let’s go talk on the seventh floor."

Nan Qingqing glanced at the tightly shut door and remembered the phone call from Gu Chuxin.

Her nose twitched, and she nodded hoarsely, "Okay."

Nan Zhuoyuan led Nan Qingqing down to the seventh floor and into the innermost office.

"Qingqing, in order to ensure that Dean Li’s treatment proceeds without any mishaps, I have already issued an order that no one, except for me and his team, is allowed to enter."

Upon hearing this, Nan Qingqing’s footsteps halted, a hint of suspicion flashed in her eyes, and a murderous intent lurked in her gaze towards Nan Zhuoyuan.

Yet her face showed hesitation, and her voice was soft and weak.

"Big brother, can we trust Dean Li? Is he even more skilled than Ghost Doctor?"

Nan Zhuoyuan had anticipated Nan Qingqing’s response; a dark flicker crossed his eyes as he turned away, immediately adopting an exhausted and haggard demeanor.

He sighed heavily, "Qingqing, Vice Chairman Gu has told you, right? I’ve turned down her suggestion."

Nan Qingqing asked, puzzled, "Big brother, why refuse Ghost Doctor? She clearly can save mom, and keeping mom alive is what matters most!"

Nan Zhuoyuan placed his hands on Nan Qingqing’s shoulders, comforting her, "Qingqing, I know you are very worried about our mother, but calm down first, and let big brother explain to you."

Nan Qingqing’s emotions eased, her eyes swollen and red, she waited for Nan Zhuoyuan’s explanation.

Nan Zhuoyuan said, "Qingqing, Vice Chairman Gu’s solution would leave mother in an eternal sleep once she takes that medicine, but Dean Li found our father and directly claimed that not only could he save our mother’s life, but he could also wake her up."

"When father learned of this, he told me to follow Dean Li’s arrangements, even if there’s only a sliver of hope, we must try."

"It’s not that I refuse Vice Chairman Gu’s solution, but it concerns our mother, and we can’t accept a solution where she would never wake up again."

He paused for two seconds, then added a final sentence.

"Qingqing, I think you, just like us, can’t accept Gu Chuxin’s proposal, right?"

At this point, if Nan Qingqing refused, the good-daughter image she had built up would completely collapse.

She suppressed the urge to curse inwardly, her face turning wan as she struggled to maintain her composure.

"Big brother, I wish for mom to wake up more than anyone, and since Dean Li has a way, let’s try his solution first."

"If his solution doesn’t work, then I will go and ask Vice Chairman Gu for help."

Nan Zhuoyuan observed all of Nan Qingqing’s expressions, the darkness in his eyes growing deeper; he put on the facade of a caring older brother.

"Qingqing, you must have been quite frightened at the zoo earlier, and these past few days, you’ve been overexerting yourself and worrying about our mother without getting a good rest."

"It’s a good opportunity for you to rest now, and let your fourth brother accompany you for a health check. Don’t fall ill yourself."

"As for mother, with big brother here, you can be at ease."
