Chapter 648

"What?" Zhang Tezhu exclaimed in disbelief, unable to control himself.

How could she be in a vegetative state?

A perfectly healthy person, who just went to the county town once, ended up in a vegetative state?

Have these doctors examined her properly? Have they thought of any treatment plans!

He immediately looked at Qiao Muting.

Sure enough, Qiao Muting's expression was deeply cold and stern, "Exhaust every possible method; you know I absolutely will not accept her remaining in this state."

The hospital president sighed deeply, "We have already shared the various examination reports and the patient's condition with some famous experts abroad for study, and they all say this is an unsolvable problem. Qiao, we can only hope for a miracle later on."

Once these words were spoken, it meant that the entire hospital was now at its wit's end.

It was not that they did not want to save her; the patient was someone Qiao cared about, so they had naturally thought of everything they could.

The final result was still unsatisfactory.

After the hospital president and the attending physician left the ward, Zhang Tezhu immediately said to Qiao Muting, "Qiao, should I contact hospitals abroad? Also... should I notify the lady's family to come? They still don't know about Miss Shu's situation."

And also... Old Madam Qiao.

This news had been kept from Old Madam Qiao, for fear that she would not be able to handle it if she found out.

Gu Lao and Chen Lao had returned from the county town two days ago, and after seeing that the hospitals in Jing City were also helpless, they were filled with self-reproach.

They had also spent the last two days looking for people to help find solutions, and helping to keep it from Old Madam Qiao.

Qiao Muting's expression was cold as he said in a deep voice, "You go out first."

Zhang Tezhu was stunned for a moment, then immediately left the ward.

Qiao Muting walked to the bedside.

He sat down to the side.

He lowered his head to gaze at Shu Xia.

The ward was quiet to the extreme.

Suddenly, a ringtone came from the mobile phone placed to the side.

Qiao Muting glanced over; it was a call from Shu Xuan to Shu Xia.

For the past three days, Shu Xia's phone had been quite quiet, with no one calling.

This was the first call.

He glanced at it and withdrew his gaze, letting the phone continue to ring, as he did not know how to tell Shu Xuan and the others right now.

After the call hung up, a second call came shortly after.

It was still Shu Xuan.

Qiao Muting frowned.

Just then, a woman's hoarse voice reached his ears, "Phone..."

Qiao Muting's expression jolted, and he turned his head sharply to look at Shu Xia on the bed.

He saw that Shu Xia had opened her eyes, and perhaps because she was not accustomed to the light in the ward, she squinted them half-shut again.

Seeing that the person in front of her was Qiao Muting, her brain felt a bit sluggish, "You..."

Her throat was exceptionally dry and uncomfortable, as if she had just been through a major illness.

Qiao Muting looked as if he had been pressed with a pause button, staring at her blankly.

Shu Xia was even more bewildered by his gaze; she wanted to speak but her throat hurt too much, and when she wanted to sit up, she discovered she had no strength in her body.

She could only look at Qiao Muting.

The two locked eyes, and Qiao Muting finally came back to his senses.

Then, he stood up abruptly.

He walked toward the ward door and said to Zhang Tezhu, who was waiting outside, "Call the attending physician over!"

The attending physician?

Shu Xia realized it belatedly; she finally realized that after waking up, she had felt something was not quite right, and only now did she discover she was in a hospital.
