71 Successful Surgery (2/2)

.....

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.

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.
