e would necessarily say."The second question!" Fu Xiaoyao raised her second finger. "I asked this before, but I want to know when did you find out that I was your daughter After you found out, did you..."This..." Shao Siniu rubbed his chin, replying to her with some uncertainty, "It's not that there is still hope, it mainly depends on a miracle."
"Miracle" Fu Xiaoyao was taken aback, then clutched the fabric on her stomach. "You mean, like my miracle"
“More or less, you should know that in medical history, there have been many cases of people in a vegetative state who slept for ten or even decades and suddenly woke up, right”
Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "I've heard about it. There was even news about it recently."
“Yes, they were initially labeled as unresponsive by the hospital, but miraculously, they regained consciousness later. That’s what constitutes a miracle, of course. My explanation might be a bit complicated. Simply put, it requires a trigger.” Shao Si Nian inserted his hands into the pockets of his white coat and stated seriously.
"Opportunity" Fu Xiaoyao whispered the two words.
Shao Si Nian pushed his glasses up. "Yes, the catalyst. Over eighty percent of patients in a vegetative state wake up because of a catalyst. That catalyst could be something they heard during their sleep, causing them to wake up. That means these past two weeks, you can talk to Tang Yi more. Maybe he'll wake up."
Fu Xiaoyao pursed her lips and did not feel happy because of his method, instead, her brows became even more heavy.
“I heard... there are two types of vegetative state, one is brain death and the other is consciousness leaving and entering another space, unable to find the way back so they can’t wake up. The ones you just mentioned who woke up from a vegetative state should be the type where consciousness left, right Then what kind of situation is Tang Yi in”
This is her top priority at the moment.
If Tang Yi is brain dead, then he will truly never wake up, and there will be no miracles.
If it's a case of disassociation, there's still hope. As Shao Si Nian said, talking to Tang Yi more might help. Perhaps in that space, Tang Yi can hear their voices and wake up.
What if it really was brain death......
Fu Xiaoyao shrank back, not daring to think about it any further.
Shao Si Nian saw her worry and remained silent for a few seconds before speaking again, "Regarding this, it's currently impossible to make a judgment. Determining whether a patient in a persistent vegetative state is brain dead or has consciousness detachment requires a period of time, which is what I meant by half a month."
"So, in half a month's time, we'll be able to determine what kind of situation Tang Yi is in" Fu Xiaoyao looked at him.
Shao Si Nian hummed in agreement, "Yes, that's why I just let you talk to Tang Yi more these past two weeks, trying to wake him up. As long as he wakes up, he'll be fine. If he doesn't wake up, then it could be brain death, or it could be a detachment of consciousness."
"I understand!" Fu Xiaoyao's heart sank to the bottom, her two hands clenched tightly. "We will do our best to wake him up."
"That's good, keep it up." Shao Si gave a slight nod of his head, then lowered his eyes to hide the emotions within them, and left the ward.
What he didn't say was that no matter how hard they tried, the chances of Tang Yi waking up were slim.
Tang Yi was destined to become a vegetable, as for what kind of vegetable, it would take another half month to determine.
And the reason he told her to try her best to awaken Tang Yi was not only to see if there would be a miracle, but most importantly, he wanted to give her some hope and didn't want to see her being too self-blaming.
The door to the ward closed again, Fu Xiaoyao leaned against the pillow, her pale face full of worry.
Aunt Song felt so sorry watching this, she couldn't help but advise: "Madam, are you worried about the second young master"
Fu Xiaoyao rubbed her throbbing temples and responded, "Yes, I'm really worried that I won't be able to wake him up in the next half month."
"No, I believe the Second Young Master will wake up." Song Yi said.
Fu Xiaoyao strained a smile. “Let’s hope so, Auntie Song. Please help me up.”
"Madam, do you need to use the restroom" Auntie Song bent down and pulled out a small basin from under the bed.
Fu Xiaoyao saw someone holding a basin, her eyes widened in shock. A bad premonition filled her heart. She asked tremblingly, "Aunt Song, what are you doing"
Don't tell her this potty is for her.
But as it turned out, she was right.
Aunt Song put the basin aside and explained with a smile, "I went to the bathroom. Madam, it's inconvenient for you to go to the bathroom with an IV drip. This is just right."
Having said that, he was about to go and help Fu Xiaoyao.
Fu Xiaoyao shook her head repeatedly, dodging Song Yi's hand, her little face full of resistance. "No no no... I don't need it, Aunt Song, please take it away!"
She refused this way of using the restroom.
"But..." Auntie Song still wanted to say something.
"Oh, Auntie Song, I'm not broken or anything, I don't need that! Please help me up, I can go to the restroom by myself," Fu Xiaoyao hurriedly said.
“Alright then.” Seeing her insistence, Aunt Song had no choice but to give up the idea of using a basin to help her go to the toilet. She carefully helped her out of bed and, holding the drip stand, escorted her to the restroom.
After finishing in the restroom, Fu Xiaoyao didn't return to her sickbed but let Aunt Song support her to the ICU to see Tang Yi.
Tang Yi has passed the danger period and can accept visits, so Fu Xiaoyao successfully entered the ICU ward.
However, she couldn't directly touch him. She could only sit by his bedside and watch him, talk to him, but not too loudly, and not for too long.
Therefore, Fu Xiaoyao tried to tell Tang Yi about some important matters, such as the major events that had happened to the Lu family over the past twenty years, and her and Lu Hanchuan's worries about him.
As she spoke, she kept observing Tang Yi's eyelids and fingers, watching for any movement.
If so, it means that he could hear what she was saying, and his consciousness is clear. Then the probability of him waking up in the next half a month would be very high.
However, after she had spoken for so long, he remained completely still, like a dead man. This caused Fu Xiaoyao's heart to sink involuntarily.
At that moment, Auntie Song appeared on the glass window outside the IUC ward, making a gesture towards her, indicating for her to come out.
Fu Xiaoyao looked at Tang Yi, then propped herself up on the bed railing and walked out lightly.
"Aunt Song, what's wrong" she asked as she came up to Aunt Song.
Auntie Song's face couldn't hide her surprise, "Madam, what good news!"
"What good news" Fu Xiaoyao tousled the hair by her ear.
Her hair had grown quite long, having not been cut in a while, almost reaching her shoulders.
But the hair that had fallen out before hasn't grown back yet.
As a result, her hair was not as plentiful as it once was, both in appearance and reality.
"Of course, there's good news from Mr. _____. " Aunt Song said.
Hearing this, Fu Xiaoyao's spirits lifted, her eyes filled with excitement. "Hanchuan caught Tang Shan"
"No, it's the Tang Group." Auntie Song shook her head.
Fu Xiaoyao frowned, the excitement in her eyes slightly subdued. "Tangshi Group"
"Yes, the Tangshi Group has gone bankrupt!" Aunt Song said loudly, her tone couldn't hide her schadenfreude.
Fu Xiaoyao was stunned for a few seconds before she managed to recover from the shock, her voice trembling with emotion, "Really bankrupt"
"Really!" Auntie Song emphasized with a nod. "Just now Qiao's assistant called me to tell me, and it should be reported on the news now, Madam, take a look."
"Okay, I'll check right away." Fu Xiaoyao responded as she took out her phone and started searching for news about Tangshi Group's bankruptcy.
A lot of things popped up after that search, the most eye-catching one was a video.....This really left her at a loss as to what to do..."He didn't believe it, he insisted that you were right here with me. After all, I had been watching him so closely before, if he still couldn't fi...
