Chapter 159: The Master's Wife's Background

Su Ruo had thought that after her rebirth she had already let go of everything, but when she finished the surgery and saw the Master's Mother lying on the bed, one day passed, two days passed……

But the Master's Mother showed no sign of waking up; Su Ruo's emotions inevitably became anxious, and she searched through many books, yet found nothing useful recorded.

Su Ruo couldn't understand: the tumor had clearly been removed, and after the system's examination, the Master's Mother's data were all normal, so why wouldn't she wake up?

Due to her anxiety, Su Ruo began to suffer sleepless nights, even started losing hair; within just a few days, her weight began to plummet, her whole body became thinner, letting her, who was already not fat, become so thin that her bones could be seen.

The senior brothers all advised Su Ruo not to be too tense, to give herself less pressure and rest more, but she couldn't take it in at all; having the Master's Mother wake up had become her obsession.

Finally, the Master couldn't stand it any longer and called Su Ruo over, saying: "You are still young; you will encounter many difficulties in the future."

We are doctors; healing the sick and saving lives is the principle and integrity we must uphold for a lifetime in this profession, but to have a long career in this field, we must learn to let go, to view life and death lightly, and to release our obsessions, because we cannot save everyone.

If you keep sinking into it, you will only cause yourself pain; do your best in everything and have a clear conscience.

In fact, being able to pull your Master's Mother back from the hands of the Death God already makes me deeply grateful to you.

As for whether your Master's Mother will wake up and when, we must accept it; in life, things won't always go as you wish, and when you reach the Master's age you will know that the most important thing in life is to let go of obsessions, reconcile with yourself, life has its own fate, and for what cannot be changed, you must learn to accept it, otherwise you will only add to your suffering.

But the Master's Mother, frightened, clutched her head with her hands and couldn't hear a word.

"What about my Master's Mother's current condition—is it temporary or permanent?"

At this moment, the Master also arrived with his three senior brothers.

Su Ruo hurriedly comforted her: "Master's Mother, it's all right; this is the Master and the senior brothers, you have nothing to fear."

"What's...?" Ji Linye rushed in anxiously to ask, and upon seeing the Master's Mother awake, he excitedly stammered: "Mas... Master's Mother..."

Although he advised Su Ruo to relax a bit, he himself was no different, constantly hoping day and night that his wife would wake up.

"Ruojun, what's wrong with you? I am Ninth Brother; don't you remember me?"

That year, the Master's Mother was six, the Master was over ten, and it was the Master's Mother who rescued him from the snowy wilderness, preventing him from freezing to death.

The Master's Mother resembled a female celebrity who later portrayed Daji; although she had a face that could bring disaster to a nation, her eyes were as gentle as water, and when they gazed at you, not only would men be moved, but women could not help but feel their hearts stir.

At this moment, the figure before Su Ruo was certainly not an elderly woman, but a middle-aged beauty whose charm still lingered.

After seeing the Master's Mother calm down, Su Ruo cautiously asked: "Master's Mother, do you know me? Do you still remember the Master?"

The Master had said the Master's Mother was a famous beauty; Su Ruo originally doubted it, but upon seeing the woman before her eyes, she instantly believed.

Seeing the happiness and affection in the Master's eyes, Su Ruo suddenly let go at that moment.

Su Ruo knew how much the Master longed for the Master's Mother to wake up, and also knew how distressed the Master would be by her current state, but she could do nothing about it.

Su Ruo carefully examined the Master's Mother's mouth and throat, finding no issues, and then realized that since the Master's Mother had been unconscious for ten years, it was normal for her to be unable to speak at first.

Seeing his wife like this, Yan Jiu worried she might hurt himself, and immediately dared not approach any closer.

Su Ruo anxiously asked: "Master's Mother, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

It was also because the Master's Mother begged the Founder Ancestor to take the Master as a disciple that the Master no longer had to wander aimlessly, gaining a place to settle and a way to earn a living.

But when he excitedly stepped toward his wife, she fled in fear and hid behind Su Ruo.

Even if Su Ruo were slow-witted, she now sensed something was wrong, and immediately asked the system: "001, what on earth is going on? Why is my Master's Mother like this?"

It was also from that day onward that the Master placed the Master's Mother in his heart, and he kept her there for decades.

"Little Ruo, let's go out first; you take good care of your Master's Mother."

Since her rebirth return, Su Ruo had constantly pushed herself to run desperately; at this moment, she suddenly wanted to slow down, as if giving herself a vacation to relax and enjoy life.

The Master's Mother has just awakened and must absolutely not be subjected to any stimulation.

That day, as usual, Su Ruo was reading beside the Master's Mother's bed when she suddenly felt the Master's Mother's hand move slightly; but when she lifted her head, she saw the Master's Mother's eyes filled with loving kindness, as gentle as water.

Upon seeing the Master's Mother awake, Su Ruo's first thought was joy, and her second thought was: "She's so beautiful, she surely won't despise the Master, will she?"

Su Ruo quickly recovered from her shock, she wanted to speak, but became so nervous that she lost her voice.

Only Su Ruo and the Master's Mother remained in the room, and under Su Ruo's gentle soothing, the Master's Mother gradually calmed down.

The next second, Ji Linye rushed out in a panic to find the Master and the senior brothers.

Moreover, the human brain is an extremely complex thing; many matters cannot be explained even by technology.

When Yan Jiu saw his wife finally awake, he lost all his former dignity, overcome with emotion to the point of nearly bursting into tears.

Su Ruo intended to put the book down, but accidentally knocked over the water cup on the cabinet; the cup fell to the floor, making a clanging sound that attracted Ji Linye outside.

"Your Master's Mother may be like this because she has been unconscious for too long, so upon waking she temporarily forgets some things; or perhaps that tumor had been pressing for too long, causing some brain damage; or maybe it's due to this cerebral hemorrhage..."

Yan Jiu led the way out, and Wen Xiuyuan and the others, glancing at the Master's Mother with complex expressions, also followed and left.

But the Master's Mother merely looked at her and smiled, saying nothing.

Su Ruo sensed something was off; she touched the Master's Mother's forehead with her hand—no fever—and after the system scan, it confirmed that the Master's Mother's body was entirely normal.

Although Su Ruo still couldn't fully understand the Master's words, her mood instantly became much more open.

Yan Jiu wanted to draw near, but the Master's Mother became even more frightened, her whole body hiding behind Su Ruo and trembling.

Su Ruo also recovered from her shock at this moment, she immediately took the Master's Mother's pulse, confirmed that aside from some weakness the Master's Mother's body was normal, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

It felt as if a stone that had weighed on her all along had suddenly been lifted; she had always regarded curing the Master's Mother as repaying the Master, never expecting that the Master's kindness toward her had never sought repayment, and on the contrary, seeing her so distressed would also cause the Master pain.

Later, the Master told Su Ruo many things, explaining that the Master's Mother was actually over ten years younger than the Master, and was the only daughter of the Master's own master.

Yan Jiu had countless times imagined the scene of his wife's arrival, but never expected it to be like this.

She was no longer anxious; instead of endlessly researching treatment plans, she relaxed, each day combing the Master's Mother's hair and reading.

Perhaps Heaven thinks I'm too fortunate, which is why it set this trial for me; but it's all right, as long as I have your Master's Mother by my side.

But the Master's Mother merely looked at her and smiled without speaking; that smile was like that of an innocent child, utterly pure.

The Master's Mother opened her mouth, but only emitted some hoarse syllables, unable to utter a single word.

Su Ruo gazed at the woman before her, having never seen such a beautiful woman before, and somewhat nervously asked: "Master's Mother, how do you feel now?"

The Master's Mother was originally over ten years younger than the Master, about forty years old; plus having slept for ten years while being nourished by heavenly treasures from the Master, she showed no signs of aging over that decade, her skin so tender it could almost drip water.

The Master said that when your Master's Mother was young, she was a renowned beauty of this generation, pursued by many, yet she somehow chose me, who possessed nothing.

I have always felt that marrying your Master's Mother is the greatest fortune of my life, and I am indeed fortunate, except for the fact that your Master's Mother fell ill.

001 said at the end, its voice getting softer and softer, after all, the situation of the person in front was too complicated, even it couldn't figure it out.

001 was also at its wit's end, and it had to voice the guess in its mind.

001 fell silent instantly, for even it could not answer this question.

Su Ruo felt an indescribable complexity in her heart, but she also knew this wasn't 001's fault; she softened her tone and asked, "Then why is the Master's Wife afraid of the master and them, but not afraid of me?"

Su Ruo felt very strange, because the master she got along with day and night and the senior brother she raised with her own hands were afraid, yet she alone was not afraid of the face she had never seen.

001 immediately said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Chick Scenario, because when she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was you, so she took her as her mother; that's why she fears everything around her, but only not you, because you can give her a sense of safety."
