My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 858: Chapter 842 Is This Still My Sister?

“Sis, where’s Mom?”

Tang Xincheng was drinking soup with one hand while the other still had a needle in it.

The Tang Family’s children were independent from a young age, and he wasn’t so incapacitated that he needed someone to wait on him hand and foot, so he still had to do everything for himself.

“She’s doing better than you.”

Though Tang Yuxin’s voice was even and detached, a discerning person could tell there was quite a bit of resentment in her tone.

Tang Xincheng dared not plead on behalf of his mother, not because he resented her—on the contrary, he loved her the most and was worried about her.

But in their household, his sister’s word was law, and with her temperamental disposition, it was crucial not to contradict her while she was angry.

Once she calmed down and thought things through, everything would be fine.

However, if he focused solely on his mother and neglected his sister’s feelings, his sister would stop caring for him.

As a patient, he couldn’t do without his sister.

With dad by mom’s side, he wasn’t worried about her, but if his sister stopped looking after him, he’d be as vulnerable as an unattended bok choy.

Realizing the situation, Tang Xincheng sensibly stopped mentioning Ren Li’s name and obediently cooperated with all the check-ups.

As long as he was able to recover, everything would be well.

As for the wound on his back, it didn’t hurt much when he didn’t move.

The worst of the pain had passed, and now there was just a slight numb, uncomfortable sensation—nothing too intense.

Regarding other matters, such as the Ren Family and the Wu Family, he didn’t need to concern himself.

The adults at home would handle them.

He was still just a child; his job was to recover and return to school as soon as possible.

Moreover, he had exams coming up, and if he didn’t do well, he would be in for a beating.

It’s just…

Why does it seem to hurt again?

He shifted slightly, and a heartrending pain shot across his back once more.

Wasn’t the pain supposed to be gone?

Why had it started up again?

“Endure it.”

Tang Yuxin frowned.

She knew he was in pain, but no matter how painful, he had to endure it.

This was a necessary part of the recovery process—it would get better once he got through it.

Tang Xincheng really felt the struggle of endurance.

It wasn’t too bad when he was still, but the slightest movement brought on unbearable pain.

He had thought the pain was gone, but he had been wrong—it had been bearable only with painkillers.

Now, without them, the pain was excruciating, almost too much to bear.

Tang Yuxin carried on as if nothing was wrong, doing whatever needed to be done as if the pain wasn’t hers to feel.

As for empathy, could she truly lack it when she had donated bone marrow to a certain man twice?

She knew all too well the agony of that experience.

“Sister…”

Tang Xincheng called out to Tang Yuxin again, “Is there any way to stop the pain?”

“There is.”

Tang Yuxin lifted her eyelids.

Do you want to try?

“Yes, yes…”

Tang Xincheng nodded vigorously.

If there was a way, he wanted to try it—he couldn’t stand the pain any longer, with cold sweat beading on his forehead, unable even to move.

He imagined few could endure such agony.

“I’ll call your brother-in-law in.”

As Tang Yuxin spoke, she was ready to leave.

“Wait…” Tang Xincheng was somewhat taken aback, “Sis, what are you calling your husband for?

He’s not a doctor, is he?”

“Don’t you want to avoid the pain?”

Tang Yuxin turned back, her eyes somewhat cool.

It wasn’t true coldness; it was simply Doctor Tang’s usual professional demeanor, which had led everyone to think of her as aloof and unapproachable over time.

Actually, she was an extremely dedicated doctor; it’s just that for two lifetimes now, her work ethic had been too rigorous.

She was a doctor, not someone paid to smile, and she was always too busy with surgeries to have any time to practice smiling.

So, over time, it just became like that, and really, you couldn’t blame her.

Of course, her aloofness could intimidate others, but Tang Xincheng wasn’t scared by it at all, because they were siblings, after all.

Tang Xincheng pouted, “Sis, you’re the doctor.”

“Right,” Tang Yuxin knew, “I am the doctor, but your brother-in-law has a heavy hand.”

“What do you need strength for?” Tang Xincheng was still completely confused.

“To knock you out.”

Tang Yuxin said this quite seriously, and although she was very proper, the current conversation between the siblings sounded like they were telling some sort of dry joke.

But you must know, Tang Xincheng was really in pain, and Tang Yuxin absolutely didn’t like to joke.

Because she was too serious, especially in the hospital.

Who had ever heard Doctor Tang tell a joke?

In such a serious place, with such a serious profession, joking didn’t make sense—her brains weren’t broken, were they?

The door to the ward outside was opened, and Li Jia stood there looking utterly dejected.

“Alright, no need to knock him out.

I’ve brought the medicine.”

Li Jia walked in, somewhat speechless about Tang Yuxin, her sister-in-law.

“Medicine isn’t good for his body.”

How could Tang Yuxin not know about using medicine?

But Tang Xincheng was still young, and this time he had hurt his vitality.

Moreover, using too much medicine would burden his body.

And feeling pain was good in a way; it would remind him to learn from this lesson.

Sometimes, even his real parents wouldn’t be of any help; he could only rely on himself to survive longer.

Especially considering the pressure brought on by such a huge family business.

Better to suffer now than to pay with his life later.

“What kind of sister are you?” Li Jia came over without asking and immediately applied the medicine to Tang Xincheng, and of course, Tang Yuxin didn’t forcefully stop her.

After the medication was administered, Tang Xincheng didn’t know if it was a placebo effect or something else, but he suddenly felt much lighter, and the pain was considerably less.

The pain in his back was also fading bit by bit.

He let out a light sigh of relief and smiled broadly at Li Jia.

“Thank you, Sister Jiajia.”

“You…”

Li Jia couldn’t help but ruffle Tang Xincheng’s hair.

Alright, she wouldn’t say any more, to avoid speaking too much or asking too much.

That would only bother Tang Yuxin, and if she got angry, none of them would have it good.

The thing that the doctors and patients at their hospital feared the most was Doctor Tang’s frown.

If she decided to frown all day, it wouldn’t be a good day for anyone in the hospital, from the doctors to the patients, to the cleaners, to the toilet cleaners—no one would be spared.

And the first one to not have any good days would be her, since she was the one who was closest to Tang Yuxin.

With the year-end approaching, those who were close to her were the ones dragged out by the hospital director to take the heat.

And there she was, inwardly smiling wryly.

How had she become a professional shield?

She just hoped Tang Yuxin would be in a slightly better mood; otherwise, she felt like she might have to call Gu Ning for help.

In this world, the only one who could persuade Tang Yuxin or get her to change her mind was Gu Ning.

She should be prepared to call Gu Ning to the rescue.
