Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 375: You Ordered Lu Mingxu’s Leg to Be Broken, Didn’t You?
Before the surgery meeting, Xu Qinghuan saw the images the hospital took for Lu Mingxu, surrounded by several surgeons and nurses.
Seeing the X-ray image Shao Lizhong took out, with the fractured condition of the bones inside, everyone gasped in shock. One honest doctor spoke up, "This looks like it was smashed with a hammer!"
A segment of about twelve centimeters on the calf was completely fractured, unimaginable how painful it must have been at the time.
It’s like a glass bottle, smashed horizontally, creating a hollow section with all the fragments piled together.
Even though Xu Qinghuan had never had any feelings for her biological brother, she couldn’t help but feel a bit of sympathy for him now. Having a leg smashed like this must be incredibly painful!
"How is the patient’s overall physical condition?" Xu Qinghuan asked Shao Lizhong.
Xu Qinghuan asked very coldly, making Shao Lizhong feel a bit ashamed in front of this young girl, "He’s okay."
"How about his mental state?"
Xu Qinghuan finally glanced at Shao Lizhong.
Shao Lizhong said, "You’ll know when you see him."
Lu Mingxu was staying alone in a ward. His physique was very frail, not short, even taller than peers, but too thin. The blue and white striped hospital gown hung on him like a cloth draped on a bamboo pole.
Outside, the wind and rain were swirling, fierce gusts blowing in through the half-opened window, forming a sail on his body.
Jiang Xingye worried that Xu Qinghuan might catch a cold, so he went over to close the window.
Lu Mingxu’s eyes, somewhat similar to Xu Qinghuan’s, moved mechanically with Jiang Xingye’s actions, like a puppet without a soul.
Xu Qinghuan walked closer to him; he raised his eyes to look at her but quickly lowered them again.
His hand rested on his leg, not daring to move, woodenly, even when he moved or breathed, he still seemed like a sculpture.
"How did your leg break?" Xu Qinghuan asked.
Lu Mingxu raised his head again, tilted his head to look at Xu Qinghuan for a moment, then lowered it without saying a word.
Lu Mingqiu rushed in; Lu Mingxu shuddered the moment he saw her. When he spotted Liu Qidong standing at the doorway, he screamed and turned to bury his head in the blanket.
Lu Mingqiu paused in shock, hurriedly came over to hug Lu Mingxu, "Xuxu, what’s wrong, what’s wrong, your sister is here."
"Go away, all of you go away, go away, ahhhhh!" He tried hard to kick Lu Mingqiu with his uninjured leg, but his other leg couldn’t move, each kick was a miss.
The screams were deafening, making Xu Qinghuan somewhat irritated; she commanded, "Prepare for the surgery!"
Lu Mingqiu asked again, "You will heal my brother’s leg, right?"
Xu Qinghuan looked deeply at her, pushing her away, walked to Jiang Xingye, grabbed his hand, and placed a bottle of medicinal powder in his palm, "Ah Ye, the surgery will take quite some time; don’t leave, stay outside the operating room door, I will see you as soon as I come out."
Jiang Xingye was somewhat reluctant for her to go in, "Can’t other doctors do the surgery?"
Xu Qinghuan hesitated for a moment but still shook her head, "This child’s leg injury is very severe; normally it should be amputated, but I want to try. If he weren’t Song Wanlin’s son, he wouldn’t have to suffer like this. After all, he is just a bait."
A bait used to lure her.
No matter how many tricks the Lu Family prepared, Lu Zongsheng was now lying in bed, rendered useless.
Even if Lu Mingxu’s leg healed, the psychological issues will accompany him for life. With a healthy leg, even if he ends up as a beggar in the future, at least he can run a bit faster.
The surgery lasted a long time, waiting at the door were not only Jiang Xingye but also Lu Mingqiu.
Lu Mingqiu approached to speak with Jiang Xingye several times, only to be ignored and quickly avoided.
The last time, Jiang Xingye was already impatient; not knowing what Xu Qinghuan had handed him, he flicked some of the powder onto Lu Mingqiu, causing her to trip and fall.
She fell somewhat badly, kneeling directly on the ground, hearing a "crack" sound, the nurse passing by felt a twinge of pain in her teeth, taking a moment to help her up. Her ankle was swollen like a bun.
The nurse escorted her for treatment.
Jiang Xingye finally had a moment to sit peacefully on the chair.
Xu Qinghuan came out, the sky was already dark, the surgery difficulty was higher than the one for Huo Zui, lasting twelve hours, leaving her utterly exhausted.
Upon exiting, Xu Qinghuan sat beside Jiang Xingye, tilting her head to say to Shao Lizhong, "The surgery was definitely successful; now go take an image, to prevent someone from tampering later and blaming it on me."
"This... wouldn’t happen, right?" Shao Lizhong hadn’t expected that Xu Qinghuan’s trust in them was completely gone, "Doctor Xu, this is a hospital..."
"Do as I say; I am still his attending physician and haven’t handed over the patient. Are my words not useful at all?" Xu Qinghuan gave Shao Lizhong a mocking look, "Or can you really not tell that his leg was smashed with a heavy object?"
The surrounding medical staff were all utterly shocked.
Shao Lizhong dared not escalate matters, hurriedly said, "That wouldn’t be the case!"
Shao Lizhong arranged for someone to push Lu Mingxu for imaging; in the corridor, Lu Mingqiu limped over, saw Lu Mingxu on the bed, rushed towards him, almost colliding with his fragile leg, when Shao Lizhong grabbed Lu Mingqiu.
"Comrade Lu, the patient’s leg just had surgery, it can’t be moved now."
Lu Mingqiu quickly steadied herself against the wall, wiping away tears, exhibiting joy through tears, "That’s good, that’s wonderful."
She was somewhat disappointed.
The image was taken, Shao Lizhong specifically gave one to Xu Qinghuan.
She flicked the image, saying to Lu Mingqiu, "Dean Shao is here, the post-surgery image is here too; the surgery was very successful. If there’s any issue during recovery, don’t come looking for me."
Lu Mingqiu said, "Qinghuan, really thank you. However, even if Mingxu’s surgery was successful, it depends on how well he recovers, right?"
Xu Qinghuan looked at Shao Lizhong.
If Lu Zongsheng doesn’t wake up, the future of the Lu Family is uncertain. He wouldn’t risk offending Xu Qinghuan for an obscure girl like Lu Mingqiu, "The surgery has been very successful thus far.
The hospital will also do its best to aid the patient’s recovery, but the family must be cautious; incidents like today of directly rushing towards the injured leg should not happen again."
Lu Mingqiu showed immense guilt, with no trace of pretending, humbly accepted the advice, "I was too anxious earlier; I only have this one brother. I was too excited seeing him come out of surgery.
Qinghuan, after his leg recovers, he’ll be able to walk, right? It won’t affect walking in the future, right?"
Xu Qinghuan asked, "Do you hope so, or not hope so? Lu Mingqiu, you had his leg smashed, didn’t you?"
