My Youth Began With Him - Chapter 57

Chapter 57

For a moment, she thought that it was Qin Chu walking out of the room, but it was Doctor Liu from the hospital's Neurosurgery Department .

"Doctor Liu, how is my brother?"

"The surgery went great; it was very successful . "

Upon hearing his words, Huo Mian let out a sigh of relief, as if a huge weight had finally been lifted from her shoulders .

"Your brother is very lucky . The blood clot was in a very sensitive area of his brain, and there were no successful precedents for this kind of surgery in our country . Dr . Qin's surgical skills are truly masterful . With him as the lead surgeon, the success rate drastically increased . " The admiration in Doctor Liu's voice was evident .

Huo Mian responded with a smile . Everyone was praising Qin Chu so it was easy to see that he played a crucial role in the operation .

"Where is my little brother?"

"He was brought to the VIP room by one of the assistants and will wake up after 12 hours . Don't worry too much . "

"Alright . Thank you very much for all of your hard work, Doctor Liu . "

"No problem, it wasn't a lot of work for the rest of us as we were only assisting Dr . Qin . He's the real hero . He doesn't look too well though and is currently resting in the lounge . "

Afterward, Doctor Liu and the other doctors and nurses left the OR, one by one .

Seeing that Qin Chu hadn't come out, Huo Mian pushed open the door to the OR and walked inside .

The surgery was over . The lounge next to the OR was for the lead surgeon to rest in .

When Huo Mian went into the lounge, she saw an exhausted Qin Chu sitting on the sofa .

What she didn't know was that Qin Chu had just returned to the city the night before this surgery .

Before the surgery, he had just attended an all-night meeting . Given GK's involvement in multiple industries, the company was very busy, 366 days a year, eight days a week, 25 hours a day .

Although Qin Chu's father, Qin Yumin, was the chairman of the board, his heart was in poor condition, and he was suffering from high blood pressure . As a result, he was already entering retirement . Other than high-stake, billion-yuan projects, he left everything in the care of Qin Chu .

Although Qin Chu disliked his status as GK's president, he had made a promise to his father many years ago, and he was going to do his best .

With such a massive workload, a sleepless night, and an ensuing surgery, it was natural for him to feel utterly exhausted .

Perhaps the most important reason was that he hadn't eaten the entire day .

His stomach already began to protest . . .

Brain surgeries are incredibly demanding as they required the complete focus from the surgeon . One wrong move and the patient may lose their life or suffer long-lasting after effects .

Plus, the patient was Huo Mian's little brother . Qin Chu was obviously trying his hardest . . .

"Here, have some water . You don't look well . " Huo Mian filled a disposable cup with warm water and handed it over to him .

Qin Chu lifted his head and looked at Huo Mian, remaining silent as he took the cup of water .

"Thank you for today . Really . " Huo Mian expressed her gratitude sincerely .

Holding the cup of hot water, Qin Chu replied slowly, "We're married . You don't have to be so polite . "

" . . . " Huo Mian was momentarily speechless . If he didn't remind her, she would've forgotten that today was the day they received their marriage certificate .

"Qin Chu . "

"Hm?"

"Could you please not tell anyone about our marriage . . . "

"Why not?"

"We're not from the same world, you . . . ?"

"So what you're saying is, my status as GK's president will embarrass you?" Qin Chu put down the untouched water, his tone cold .

"No, it's not that . I just don't want it to get onto the media . My mother will see, and she has deep misunderstandings towards you . "

"So we have to hide our marriage our entire life?" Qin Chu was evidently unwilling to do that . Who would want to hide the fact that they're married? In fact, he couldn't wait to tell the world that he and Huo Mian were husband and wife .
