Chapter 180 Waiting for You to Come Back and Marry You
Old Qin lay peacefully in his hospital bed, receiving only an IV drip; in the doctors' eyes, his chances of recovery were slim.
The doctor told Qin Kaijiang and Qin Ge the truth, meaning that they should prepare as soon as possible.
Late at night, Qi Tongwei pulled the heartbroken Qin Xue to the stairwell, took out a small ceramic bottle containing a longevity pill.
"Xiaoxue, what I'm about to say is a bit absurd, even a bit like a fantasy, but there's a pill in this small bottle that might save Grandpa."
Qin Xue's pupils dilated with joy. Could it really save her grandfather? She didn't want him to die like this.
"Tongwei, you really can save Grandpa!"
Qi Tongwei held Qin Xue's hand tightly, "Xiao Xue, I can't be sure, but I guarantee this medicine is absolutely fine."
Qin Xue perked up immediately. No matter what the method, she would try it as long as it could save her grandfather.
"I'll give it to Grandpa right away."
Qi Tongwei nodded, but he wasn't sure himself. This medicine was called the Longevity Pill, but it wasn't a panacea. He really regretted not giving it to Old Qin sooner. If Old Qin passed away, he would lose a great support.
The two quietly returned to the ward. Qi Tongwei stood guard at the door, while Qin Xue went to her grandfather's bedside, pried open his mouth, and fed him the food. Even if he couldn't swallow, it would slowly melt in his mouth.
Qin Xue prayed all night that her grandfather would wake up.
Qin Kaijiang and Qin Ge have both accepted the fact that their father is about to pass away.
When the doctor came to check on him in the morning, he was astonished to find that Old Qin's vital signs were slowly recovering.
"That's strange."
The doctor couldn't help but marvel at Qin's incredible will to live.
Qin Xue quickly asked, "Doctor, is my grandfather feeling better?"
Doctors are not sure yet; it could be a final burst of energy before death, because modern science has not fully understood the intricate machine that is the human body.
"Old Qin's condition is better today than last night, but we still need to observe him further; we can't draw any conclusions too easily now."
Overwhelmed with emotion, Qin Xue hugged Qi Tongwei tightly, disregarding her father's presence. She knew that the medicine must have played a crucial role.
If her father hadn't been lying in a hospital bed, Qin Kaijiang would have definitely given his daughter a good scolding. What kind of behavior is it for a girl to hug and kiss a man so casually?
Qi Tongwei dared not look Qin Kaijiang in the eye. The little cabbage had been eaten by a pig, and the old father's heart was bleeding.
After a morning, Old Qin's vital signs improved.
In the stairwell, Qin Xue hugged Qi Tongwei tightly, unable to express her gratitude in words.
The two of them held each other tightly, waiting for a miracle to happen.
When Zhong Zhengmei received the news, she almost set off firecrackers to celebrate. She wanted to see if Qi Tongwei would still dare to be so arrogant after Old Qin's death.
Not receiving any news of Qin Lao's passing made Zhong Zhengmei extremely anxious. That afternoon, she brought Zhong Xiaoai and Hou Liangping to the hospital to feign a visit to Qin Lao, hoping to confirm the news in person before she could feel at ease.
Zhong Zhengmei feigned a sorrowful expression, "Prosecutor Qin, I had some misunderstandings with your daughter's boyfriend before, please don't take it to heart. The two gentlemen have already cleared up the misunderstandings. I didn't expect that Elder Qin would fall ill so soon. My husband's health has also been poor. I hope Elder Qin will recover soon."
Qin Kaijiang didn't think much of it. The descendants of the two families weren't familiar with each other, but the visitor was a guest.
Thank you, that's very thoughtful of you.
Zhong Zhengmei was just there to go through the motions. Seeing that Old Qin hadn't woken up yet, she felt much relieved, because the longer he was unconscious, the less likely he was to wake up.
Before leaving, she gave Qi Tongwei a fierce glare, full of provocation and contempt.
Qi Tongwei felt a sense of crisis. Now that he had offended the Zhong family, if he didn't go abroad, his final fate might be like Zhao Ruilong's.
Of course, the best way is to trample the Zhong family underfoot, or to latch onto an even stronger patron.
Qi Tongwei now especially hopes that Old Qin can wake up and live for another ten years to protect him.
At 6 p.m., a miracle happened. Old Qin woke up, and after the doctor's examination, all of his physical indicators were normal, which was simply incomprehensible to a group of experts and professors.
"Grandpa, Grandpa"
Qin Xue knelt down beside her grandfather's sickbed and cried uncontrollably, her tears flowing like a burst dam. She had never been so afraid before.
Old Qin raised his trembling hand and touched his granddaughter's hair. His biggest worry was this granddaughter. Now that someone was taking care of her, he had no regrets. Now that she was alive, he was determined to send her off to get married as soon as possible.
When Zhong Zhengmei received the news that Qin Lao had woken up, the abalone in her mouth suddenly lost its flavor. "That damn Qi Tongwei, I'll let you live a few more years!"
Mr. Qin was discharged from the hospital just one day later, which can only be described as a medical miracle.
Grandpa woke up, and Qin Xue was in a great mood. She took Qi Tongwei to climb the Great Wall.
The two stood on the beacon tower, gazing into each other's eyes, their affection growing stronger with each passing day.
Looking at the vast expanse of white ice and snow, Qi Tongwei couldn't help but shout, "The scenery of the Northland is magnificent, with thousands of miles of ice and snow..."
Qin Xue gazed at this poetic and artistic man with an adoring look, feeling a warmth in her heart. A single glance felt like an eternity; what more could she ask for?
She didn't ask about the source of the pill because Qi Tongwei told her there was only one, and she firmly believed that Qi Tongwei wasn't lying to her.
Qi Tongwei took many photos of Qin Xue with his camera. Every time he pressed the shutter, Qin Xue smiled brightly. Being with Qi Tongwei made her rediscover her childhood self.
Kyoto Airport.
Qi Tongwei held Qin Xue tightly, the two reluctant to part, unwilling to separate for even a moment.
Old Qin woke up, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Qi Tongwei decided to take a gamble and agreed to Ye Xingguo's request to go to eastern Guangdong to crack down on drugs.
"Xiaoxue, don't worry, I will definitely come back alive."
Qin Xue wiped her tears on Qi Tongwei's clothes; she was just like a little crybaby when she was a child.
"Tongwei, drug dealers are ruthless and vicious people. You must be careful."
Qi Tongwei cupped Qin Xue's face in his hands and said seriously, "Are you sure drug dealers are as fierce as me?"
Qin Xue couldn't help but laugh at his serious yet comical expression. She wiped away her tears and said solemnly:
"Qi Tongwei, I'll marry you when you come back."
Qi Tongwei was stunned for a moment, then picked up Qin Xue and was overjoyed. No words could express his feelings at that moment.
"Passengers flying to eastern Guangdong, please proceed to the boarding gate; boarding is imminent."
A voice urging the two to separate came from the loudspeaker, and with a reluctant look back, Qi Tongwei disappeared from Qin Xue's sight.
The roar of the engine vibrated in his ears as the plane soared into the blue sky and passed through the white clouds. Qi Tongwei looked up and saw the plane getting further and further away from the ground. He thought that he could marry Qin Xue when he came back next time. His heart was filled with the power of love. The drug dealers were the stumbling blocks on his road to a happy marriage. They had to be killed.
Guangdong Province, with its capital city of Tianhe.
The weather in Lingnan is so nice! Qi Tongwei doesn't need to wear a down jacket and be bundled up like a dumpling. He can wear short sleeves for 300 days a year, and a long-sleeved shirt is enough to get through the winter. It saves a lot of money.
The task force meeting room.
Ye Xingguo personally brought Qi Tongwei before the crowd, saying, "From today onwards, Comrade Qi Tongwei will serve as the acting captain of the Provincial Narcotics Control Detachment. I hope everyone will work together to bring all the drug traffickers to justice as soon as possible."
"Welcome Comrade Qi Tongwei! Let's give him a round of applause!"
Li Jitao, deputy head of the task force and head of the provincial anti-drug squad, was the first to applaud. He was in charge of the specific work, while Ye Xingguo was just a figurehead.
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances and applauded. Such a young anti-drug squad leader, personally brought by Director Ye—was he some privileged son of an official who came to steal credit and gain prestige?
