Chapter 170 Barbecue at Night

Once they arrived at the hospital, Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo knew that Li Xiuqi decided to perform the operation at 8 a.m. tomorrow.

Lying in bed, Yao Sheng kept holding Shen Jiani’s hands and Shen Jiani didn’t refuse him. Instead, she kept comforting him. Ling Tianyi said something to him and encouraged him to overcome it. With Shen Jiani’s accompanying, Yao Sheng was delighted to do anything Ling Tianyi asked.

Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo accompanied Yao Sheng for the whole night. Yao Sheng was taken into the operating room at 8 o’clock in the morning.

Li Xiuqi told them repeatedly that it was risky and a craniotomy was more risky. Ling Tianyi didn’t sleep for the whole night, but he was reluctant to have a rest at home. Instead, he stayed with his friend since childhood in the hospital, because he wanted to wait for the good news. Xia Xiaoluo also stayed with Ling Tianyi. She was worried about Yao Sheng because he has helped her for many times.

The operation lasted for 14 hours, ending at half past ten in the evening.

Li Xiuqi came out, being exhausted.

“Doctor Li, how is my son? How’s the operation?” Feng Mingjun rushed to Li Xiuqi immediately and the other people followed.

“Don’t worry. The operation is very successful! It’s better than expected!” Li Xiuqi took his mask off. He felt proud of the operation even though he was exhausted.

“Wonderful! Doctor Li, thank you very much! When will he wake up? Will you send him to the ICU or the general ward?” Feng Mingjun asked. She was worried about Yao Sheng even though the operation was successful.

“We will send him to the ICU first. If there is nothing abnormal in 48 hours, we will send him to the VIP ward. Because we gave him anesthesia, he will wake up at about 10 tomorrow morning. We will arrange physical examinations, then we’ll know is the situation. Seeing from the operation and his body indicators, we can conclude that it’s much better than expected. So please don’t worry.” Li Xiuqi told them Yao Sheng’s situation, which made them relieved.

After thinking for a while, Ling Tianyi asked, “Will he regain his sight after waking up tomorrow?”

“Will he?” Feng Mingjun asked too.

“The operation is successful, so he is likely to regain his sight. But we can’t guarantee it, because everything is possible in medical area. After he wakes up, we will put a blinder on his eyes to protect them from sunshine. After another 12 hours, we will take the blinder off and let him try to see things. We will know the result at that time.” Li Xiuqi said.

At the same time, several medical staff took Yao Sheng out. Although he looked pale, he seemed to be satisfied with a slight smile.

They sent Yao Sheng to the ICU together.

“Well, it’s late now, let me arrange the things.” As the elder generation and Yao Sheng’s father, Yao Houde arranged everything for them.

“Yi, it’s too late now, send Jiani and Xiaoyuan home safely. After that, you go home to have a good rest with Xiaoluo. Mingjun will rest in the ward and I will stay in the ICU.” Yao Houde would accompany his son. He asked the others to have a rest. He thought that it was the most reasonable arrangement.

Yao Houde was over 50 years old. Ling Tianyi thought that it would be harmful to his health if he stayed here for the whole night. So Ling Tianyi said, “Uncle, I will come back after sending them home. You didn’t sleep well last night, so please have a good rest in the ward.”

“Yi, don’t belittle me. I will be ok even though I don’t sleep for several nights. What’s more, I took a nap when Yao Sheng was in operation. So don’t worry about me. Well, I’m afraid that we are not able to control Yao Sheng if he loses his temper after waking up, so come here at 10 tomorrow morning and I will have a rest then. We will accompany him in turns. It’s settled.” Yao Houde said firmly, Ling Tianyi had to obey him without saying anything.

After sending Feng Yuan and Shen Jiani home, Ling Tianyi drove home. There were still some barbecue stands along the road.

Xia Xiaoluo has stayed in the hospital for a long time, only eating some take-out food. So she was a little hungry. She couldn’t help licking her lips and swallowing saliva.

Ling Tianyi saw that when he was driving. He didn’t allow Xia Xiaoluo to eat the food in roadside stands and she had to obey his order. Ling Tianyi wanted to satisfy her this time because she wanted to eat it very much. What was more, she was not pregnant. Although it was junk food, he thought that nothing serious would happen because they seldom ate it.

“You must be hungry. How about eating some barbecue?” Ling Tianyi asked.

Xia Xiaoluo was stunned, without knowing what to say. She did not know why Ling Tianyi let her eat barbecue. Did he do it deliberately? She didn’t know whether he would be angry if she said yes. However, what if he really allowed her to eat it? By then, she would miss the barbecue if she said no. But she really wanted to eat it.

Xia Xiaoluo was hesitating.

“Em? Don’t you want to eat?” Ling Tianyi knew what was in her mind and he felt a little depressed.

“I will eat it with you.” Xia Xiaoluo finally said, making a compromise.

Ling Tianyi stopped the car immediately and got off without saying anything. He opened the door for Xia Xiaoluo. “Hurry up or we will go home right now.”

“Yeah!” Xia Xiaoluo jumped out of the car delightedly at once because she was sure that Ling Tianyi was willing to eat barbecue with her.

After arriving at the barbecue stand, Xia Xiaoluo ordered some kebabs she liked. She also recommended to Ling Tianyi. Ling Tianyi became delighted when he saw that she was so happy.

Ling Tianyi has been upset due to Yao Sheng for a long time. While Xia Xiaoluo could get rid of everything annoying by eating barbecue in the roadside stand. Only the roadside food could give her so much pleasure, which impressed Ling Tianyi a lot.

They sat at the table, the shopkeeper served them with roast food, including roast squid, roast potato slices and roast ribs. What was more, he brought a bottle of beer for Ling Tianyi and some coke for Xia Xiaoluo.

“Wow! It smells delicious! Darling, hurry up and it’s hot now!” Xia Xiaoluo also asked Ling Tianyi to eat something when she was eating.

Seeing that Xia Xiaoluo was satisfied, Ling Tianyi took one roast chicken wing and tasted it. “Em! It’s delicious!”

In fact, Ling Tianyi decided that no matter how awful it was, he would say it was delicious in order to satisfy Xia Xiaoluo. But he really liked it after tasting.

“Sure! I ordered the most delicious food here!”

“Darling, have some roast squid tentacles! They are also delicious!”

“Try some roast potato slice! Although it is vegetable, you must order it when you eat barbecue because it is so delicious!”

Xia Xiaoluo recommended to Ling Tianyi excitedly, so he tried some to satisfy her.

They were full, just spending 61 yuan. The generous shopkeeper only asked them for 60 yuan. “60 yuan is enough! I earn a little money. I want to return the customers, so come here next time if you like it!”

Ling Tianyi always gave money to others, but it was the first time for him to receive the change from other people. So he took out several hundred-yuan cashes and said to the shopkeeper, “It’s not easy for you to manage the barbecue stand, so take it!”

In fact, Ling Tianyi didn’t want to go to the barbecue stand again, because he didn’t allow Xia Xiaoluo to eat it anymore even though she liked it very much.

Taking the money, the shopkeeper was still confused, because it was the first time for him to see such a generous customer like Ling Tianyi. But several young people beside them stood up before the shopkeeper could react. A gangster came to Ling Tianyi. “You must be the Fortune God! Give me some money!”

The gangster put one of his hands on Ling Tianyi’s shoulder, but Ling Tianyi put him away and said, “Who are you?”

“Xiaoluo, let’s go home.” Ling Tianyi intended to take Xia Xiaoluo away.

In fact, Ling Tianyi would beat those who offended him, but he didn’t want to cause troubles today because Xia Xiaoluo was here and it was late.

Ling Tianyi wanted to smooth things over, but the gangster was so bold that he took Xia Xiaoluo’s arms directly. “What a beautiful girl! How can you take her away in front of me?”

Seeing the gangster dare to offend Xia Xiaoluo, Ling Tianyi couldn’t bear it anymore. He began to hit them. The other gangsters also rushed to them immediately.

Not being afraid, Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo behind himself to protect her. “Who is your boss? How dare you to offend me?”

“Brother B! Have you heard of him? You must be afraid!”

“Leave the girl here to satisfy us so that we can let you go!”

Ling Tianyi was irritated at once, intending to beat them. Xia Xiaoluo said to him, “Darling, don’t fight! Let’s call the police!”

“What? We are not afraid of that! Brother B’s uncle is a leader of the police! He won’t arrest us but you!” The gangster said and burst into laugh.
