Chapter 112: Return Home

Seeing the patient record sent by Vincent, Su Xiyan frowned dubiously.

She always felt this tumor looked somewhat familiar?

When Su Xiyan fell into the sea back then, her head hit a reef, and she lost part of her memory.

When she woke up again, Su Xiyan remembered she was only 18, and when she discovered she actually had two babies in her belly, she was so shocked her jaw almost dropped!

My goodness, she was clearly still an unmarried young lady!

How could she have gotten pregnant!

And it was two at once!

But after thinking it over, Su Xiyan was actually quite happy.

She had always liked children; keeping the kids and letting the father go, she was truly satisfied.

It's extremely hard for a woman to raise two children, and she also had to prepare her doctoral thesis and clinical trials.

But her life was incredibly fulfilling; the children always healed her when she broke down, Tangtang and Tiantian were extremely well-behaved, they were legendary angel babies.

Now, they are the sole focus of her life.

Regarding the matter of returning home for surgery, after Tangtang and Tiantian got out of school, Su Xiyan decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with them.

"Tangtang, Tiantian, Mom needs to go back home to have a surgery.

"But this surgery is very high-risk, so I need to stay in the homeland for a period of time.

"So, I want to ask what you think."

Tangtang pouted, "Tangtang doesn't want to be separated from Mom."

Tiantian's face showed maturity beyond her years: "Mom, you said before you'd stay abroad with us. Now why do you need to go back home for surgery?"

Su Xiyan greatly respected the children; she always believed each child was an equal individual.

She thought seriously, "At first, I refused Professor Vincent's invitation."

But after his repeated persuasion and after looking at this patient's record, I have reconsidered.

I think this way: first, this patient is someone who has important influence on our country and even the global economy.

Saving him might allow many people to avoid unemployment.

Furthermore, he has always been enthusiastic about charity, building orphanages and establishing an Angel Fund, allowing many children your age who are not so fortunate or are suffering to be redeemed.

Lastly, it's just a little selfishness on Mom's part.

His condition is extremely tricky; I haven't seen such a tricky record in a long time, so I want to take on the challenge.

This also counts as a challenge to my career; I want to reach a new height.

"If I can cure him, this will be a new calling card for me."

Hearing Su Xiyan's words, Tangtang and Tiantian were both deeply moved.

Tangtang spoke first: "Mom! Although Tangtang wants to stay with you, Tangtang thinks what you said makes perfect sense, Tangtang supports you!"

Tiantian also nodded very maturely: "Mom, go ahead with peace of mind; my sister and I can take good care of ourselves."

Seeing the two children so sensible and not spoiled, Su Xiyan felt moved to tears.

She tightly hugged the two little cotton-padded jackets, "Mom, having treasures like you is truly wonderful.

Don't worry, after the surgery I'll be back soon.

"By then, Mom will bring you specialties from my hometown."

Tangtang nodded: "Mm-hmm! Tangtang wants to eat osmanthus cake, walnut pastry, White Rabbit candy, and chicken feet!"

Su Xiyan nodded repeatedly: "Sure, sure, whatever you want to eat, Mom will buy it for you."

Saying that, Su Xiyan turned her head to ask Tiantian, "What do you want to eat?"

Tiantian shook her head: "Mom, I want you to go see the old grandma."

Hearing Tiantian mention grandma, Su Xiyan lowered her head somewhat wistfully.

Back then, after she finally woke up and managed to give birth to the children, once she had settled abroad, she tried to look for grandma.

But she didn't expect to receive the news that both grandma and Su Qingming had passed away.

She had considered contacting Su Airan, but thinking of their past relationship, she felt it unnecessary.

Later, after Tangtang and Tiantian grew a bit older, she returned to the homeland once.

When she actually saw grandma's tombstone, her heart was filled with immense sorrow.

Fortunately, with Tangtang and Tiantian's companionship, she was able to get through the toughest times.

Now, besides Tangtang and Tiantian, she has no other relatives in this world.

After packing her luggage, Su Xiyan will take tonight's flight.

She arrived at the children's room, saw Tangtang already asleep, and Su Xiyan carefully covered her with a blanket.

While covering Tiantian with the blanket, Tiantian suddenly opened her eyes.

Seeing the usually independent Tiantian suddenly look at her with an admiring expression, Su Xiyan's heart turned completely soft.

She pulled Tiantian into her embrace and softly said, "Why aren't you asleep yet, dear?"

Tiantian sniffed, losing her usual maturity, her voice soft and sweet: "Mom, come back soon."

Su Xiyan softly hummed, then kissed Tiantian's forehead.

"After Mom finishes the surgery and the patient is out of danger, I'll return right away."

Tiantian couldn't help but burrow into Su Xiyan's embrace, then she heard Tangtang say:

"Hehehe, it turns out Tiantian is the little spoiled one."

Never expecting both little treasures to still be awake, Su Xiyan couldn't help but laugh, but thinking they were acting this way because they were about to be separated from her, she couldn't help but hesitate,

"Maybe Mom shouldn't go after all; you're still too young, although I'll have Wei Lian Tai Tai look after you.

but I really can't put my mind at ease.

Tangtang's soft, sweet little voice, she said, shaking her head and swaying: "Oh dear, it's fine, Mommy. Wei Lian Tai Tai is super capable; even the fiercest hooligan on the street has to bow when he sees her."

Moreover, her muffins are super delicious; Tangtang loves playing with Jie Fu, although it always likes to snatch my muffins to eat.

Wei Lian Tai Tai is a retired Fubole special agent; Jie Fu is her lifelong police dog, a Tibetan Mastiff that stands two meters tall on its hind legs.

Wei Lian Tai Tai has no children of her own; her favorites are Tangtang and Tiantian. After Su Xiyan performed surgery on Jie Fu, Jie Fu came to regard Su Xiyan as the dearest person to him besides Wei Lian Tai Tai.

Su Xiyan feels fortunate to continually receive help from kind-hearted people.

The night before departing, Su Xiyan slept on the same bed with Tangtang Tian tian, and she told them many, many stories.

There were stories about her childhood, as well as Tangtang and Tiantian's childhood; that night, Su Xiyan slept especially soundly.

The next morning, she took Tangtang and Tiantian to Wei Lian Tai Tai's home.

Su Xiyan set off on her journey back home with her luggage.
