Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Chapter 549 Standing with Mom

Did he cry too?

"Dad, did you put the eye drops in your eyes too?" Zhangzhu asked in a puzzled voice.

"Yes, Dad got eye drops in his eyes too..." His voice was clearly choked with suppressed sobs.

Zhiyuan's feelings for Gu Juncheng are now somewhat complicated.

He grew up in a military camp. Gu Juncheng was a hero in the military camp, especially in the hearts of the children in the military camp, and was an object of worship.

Later, he lost his home, and it was Gu Juncheng who took him back to the Gu family and gave him a place to live.

He will always admire and be grateful to Gu Juncheng.

Later, he had a mother.

Throughout his formative years, he spent most of his time with Lin Qingping.

The days he and Lin Qingping spent supporting each other were the warmest times of his life.

He had sworn in his heart that no one could let Lin Qingping suffer, but he found that there was only one person who could truly hurt Lin Qingping's heart each time—Gu Juncheng, whom he regarded as his role model and hero.

He had resented Gu Juncheng. Even after he learned that finding a wife for Gu Juncheng was just Gu's wishful thinking and that Gu Juncheng himself was unaware of it, he still felt that the fact that Lin Qingping had been wronged had already been established.

Ultimately, it was his father who didn't handle this matter well. He caused such a scene while his mother was sick, hurting her feelings. Otherwise, would his mother have become so forgetful?

He knew that his father loved him and his daughter, and of course, he must have cared about his mother as well. However, he could not forgive him on his mother's behalf.

Thinking about it that way, he stopped worrying about it.

Anyway, he respected his mother's attitude and stood by her side.

This has always been his attitude!

The surgery took a very, very long time...

They accompanied Lin Qingping to the operating room early in the morning. Time dragged on, and although it felt like a long time had passed, only five minutes had gone by.

Every time the operating room door opened and a patient who had just finished surgery was wheeled out, they all stood up involuntarily, but every time, it wasn't Lin Qingping who came out.

again and again.

Hour after hour.

At noon, Gu Juncheng gave Zhiyuan money and asked him to go out and buy lunch for everyone.

Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, wanting to wait here so he could see his mother as soon as she came out, but he still took the money and went.

He is his mother's support, his darling's support, and the man of the family.

Gu's father didn't seem capable of handling things today. He kept pacing back and forth outside the operating room, or carrying his daughter around.

Aunt Tianjiao and her second aunt told him not to go, that they would go instead, but he still took the money and ran away.

I bought a meal for everyone, but actually, no one could eat it.

Gu Juncheng opened a box of food, intending to feed Zhangzhu.

But after experiencing disappointment time and time again as the operating room doors opened, Zhangzhu was now somewhat bewildered. Pointing at the operating room door, she frowned and said, "Eat, wait for Mom."

We need to wait for Mom to come out so we can eat together.

Upon hearing this, Gu Juncheng lost his composure. His hand holding the chopsticks trembled, and the small piece of meat he managed to pick up fell to the ground.

"I'll feed you, you eat first." Zhiyuan took the pearl from his arms, rinsed it, and opened a box.

But Zhangzhu refused to eat, insisting on waiting for her mother.

"Listen to me." Zhiyuan suppressed his sadness. "Mom is sick. She won't have the strength to walk after the surgery. Zhuzhu needs to eat a lot so she will have the strength to support Mom."

Upon hearing this, Zhangzhu immediately frowned, looking very serious, and then said to her father, "Daddy, eat your fill! Help Mommy!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Tianjiao, despite having no appetite, said to everyone, "That's right, we have to eat even if we can't! We still have heavy responsibilities on our shoulders and need to take care of the patients. We have to listen to Zhangzhu and eat even if it's just to complete a task!"

This time, everyone had a profound understanding of what it felt like to eat something tasteless, but as Wu Tianjiao said, they treated it as completing a task and finished their meal completely.

Even after finishing the meal, the wait continued for a long time...

As dusk fell, the operating room doors opened once more, and the call of "Lin Qingping's family" rang out. Ten hours had passed since she entered the operating room that morning...
