Chapter 1574
“Yes, Uncle Qin . ” Huo Mian nodded .
“But, where did you possibly borrow this much money from?”
Uncle Qin was still in shock . He stared at the young lady in front of him and contemplated – Even he and his brother wouldn’t be able to borrow this much money in such a short amount of time to avert the crisis .
“I had a couple of friends that helped me . ”
“Well, very nice friends, indeed . ” Uncle Qin was still recovering from the shock .
“Yes, I’m very grateful for them . ”
“I came with 8 billion yuan in liquid capital . You can use this first . If it’s still not enough, I will figure something out when I get back to the U . S . Headquarters,” Uncle Qin said as he pulled out an internationally-accepted cheque and passed it to Huo Mian .
“Uncle Qin, I already have enough . ”
“Take it . We’re family, you don’t need to be polite . My brother called me a while ago, I would’ve come much earlier if I wasn’t stuck in South Africa . I feel terrible about that . ”
“Forget that, Uncle Qin . Dad’s surgery is about to start soon, I will go and get ready . ”
“I heard what happened from Mr . Wu . To be honest, I’m really shocked . But please, don’t feel any pressure and try to be calm . Take care of my brother . ”
“Of course, Uncle Qin . I will give it my all . ”
“Sis-in-law! You can do it!” Qin Ning gave Huo Mian’s hand a squeeze .
Mrs . Qin walked over warily . After much contemplation, she finally asked, “Mian, what are the chances?”
“Mom, to be honest, I don’t know . I will do my best . ”
“Okay . I believe in you . We’ll wait for you right here, right outside of the OR . ”
Huo Mian nodded . She changed into scrubs and walked into the OR with her team . The three members of the Qin Family huddled closely together and watched until her shadow disappeared into the OR .
To be honest, Huo Mian was a little nervous, because this surgery didn’t allow for any mistakes .
The surgery lasted for seven full hours . By the time Huo Mian walked out, she was so tired that she almost passed out . A nurse grabbed her by the waist quickly and was able to prop her up . “Dr . Huo, are you okay?”
Huo Mian shook her head . “I’m probably just too tired because I haven’t been resting well . I’ll be fine . ”
“Dr . Huo, you look pale . You should go home and rest now . We’ve done all we can, the rest is up to the patient . ”
“Dr . Liu, what’s the likelihood of my father-in-law waking up?” Huo Mian asked wearily .
“To be honest, I’m not sure either . If you really want a number, it’s probably about 35% . ”
“It’s that low?” Her tired face showed a sense of deep sadness .
“It’s not low at all . We knew from the start he had a tumor . It’s difficult to predict how well he will recover, and it’s difficult to predict how fast the cancer cells are spreading . It’s all up to him now . ”
Huo Mian walked out of the OR with much on her mind .
“Mian, how is he?” Mrs . Qin was the first that ran up and asked .
“The surgery, the surgery was a success . ”
“Thank goodness!” Mrs . Qin’s hand shook with excitement as she grabbed Huo Mian’s hand .
“Dad will be under observation in the ICU for the next 24 hours, the critical period has not passed yet . ”
Mrs . Qin’s smile faded when she heard what Huo Mian said .
“I believe Dad will be alright . Mom, you should go and get some rest, you don’t look so well,” Huo Mian comforted her .
“You look very pale too, you should go and get some rest as well . ”
Huo Mian simply shook her head . “I still have a lot to do at the company, Dad will be in his room . ”
After leaving the hospital, Huo Mian headed to GK . However, after driving off the freeway, she was stopped by Huo Siqian’s car .
He walked out of his car and knocked on Huo Mian’s window, who lowered it .
“Mian, Qin Chu’s going to be sentenced during his second trial, and you won’t be able to do anything about it then . Are you sure you don’t want to beg me to let him off the hook?”
“It doesn’t matter what I say, it’s not like you’re going to let him go, are you?” Huo Mian stared at Huo Siqian extremely icily but with a calm expression on her face .
“Why don’t you make me happy first, maybe that’ll help . ” Huo Siqian looked at Huo Mian, deeply mesmerized by the young woman in front of him .
