“What special ward? Where did you hear about such a thing? I can understand your feelings, but you may have misunderstood. This is a public hospital, not one of those private hospitals outside, and we don’t have the kind of special wards you’re talking about,” the doctor shook his head. He didn’t make things clear but also didn’t entirely rule out the possibility, instead offering a reminder, “If you really need something like that, you might want to talk to our hospital’s director.”

Having said that, the doctor looked at the nurse and asked, “Qin, which director is on duty tonight?”

After thinking for a moment, the nurse answered, “Director Song is on duty tonight.”

“If you have any special requests, you might consider talking to our Director Song,” the doctor nodded to Lin Mo, then went on to explain some details about accompanying care before leaving the ward with the nurse.

Once the doctor had left, Li Lingling spoke softly, “Husband, don’t you know Director Wang from this hospital? Why don’t you give him a call and ask? See if it’s possible to get a different ward or find a specialist?”

Most people are aware of the special wards in hospitals.

It’s just that hospitals can’t openly acknowledge that.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo’s father-in-law hurriedly added, “Really? Now is the time when our family must pull together. Miao, if you really have those connections, please help us out. Your cousin and her husband won’t forget your kindness!”

Li Jinwen and Lin Mo’s gazes also turned toward Liu Miao.

Although Lin Mo didn’t have a very good impression of this cousin-in-law.

There had been some tension a few days ago.

But if he could do this favor, Lin Mo would definitely let bygones be bygones, and in the future, if he came across some useful information, he wouldn’t treat him unfairly.

However, Liu Miao followed up with a sigh, looking helpless as he said, “Uncle, cousin, brother-in-law, don’t listen to Lingling’s nonsense. It’s not that I don’t want to help, and if I had the power, I would surely do so, but my relationship with the hospital’s leadership… isn’t really like that, not even friends, at most just acquaintances.”

“Besides, this is North City’s First City Hospital after all. Getting a spot in a special care ward is not just a matter of money; you need some very powerful connections,” Liu Miao continued.

Everyone actually knew this in their hearts.

In Rakshasa City, with its advanced healthcare system ranking among the top in the nation, wealthy people from all over the country come here when they fall ill.

This place does not lack for wealthy people, let alone those with tens of millions. Even those with modest goals find it the same.

After all, how much money do many of the Rakshasa City natives have from just a few resettlement houses?

To get a special single room in a public hospital, you need to have someone high up, someone with a very solid relationship.

Otherwise, you won’t even come close to the threshold. They’ll tell you bluntly there’s none available!

Lin Mo knew Liu Miao was not deliberately unhelpful.

Although he had some money, he was, after all, just a vegetable vendor, a wholesaler; how many high-level connections could he have?

“It’s alright, I’ll figure out something myself.”

Lin Mo didn’t place too much hope on Liu Miao. He glanced at the time; it was almost midnight. He said to his in-laws, “Mom and Dad, you heard what the doctor said. It’s not suitable to have too many people staying here, and it’s very late now. You should go back and rest. Jin Wen and I will stay here and watch over things.”

“Xiaoxiao, you should also go back with grandma and grandpa, be a good girl.”

“No! Daddy, I don’t want to go back… I want to wait for grandpa and grandma, as well as auntie, to wake up…” Lin Xiaoxiao started crying loudly, her voice strained as she said, “I won’t go….. Grandpa is the most fond of me, he’ll be upset if he opens his eyes and can’t see me…”

Lin Changshui loved his granddaughter the most.

Similarly, Lin Xiaoxiao also adored her grandfather the most.

With her grandfather’s life hanging in the balance, Lin Xiaoxiao, even if she went back, would certainly not be able to sleep through the night.

A child’s crying is the most infectious.

When Lin Xiaoxiao cried, Li Jinwen, her mother-in-law, and Li Lingling, the three women, couldn’t help but start shedding tears as well.

What a predicament this was!

“`

The lottery shop was finally ready to open, business had brought in money, and after decades of struggle by two generations, they had finally managed to find a place for themselves in Rakshasa City. They were about to own a house of their own, but then they received this devastating news!

Heavenly Father, won’t you open your eyes and see?

“Alright, we won’t go back, don’t cry, Xiaoxiao, we won’t leave, I won’t let you leave.”

Seeing his daughter in pain tore Lin Mo’s heart apart, and with reddening eyes, he picked up Lin Xiaoxiao, comforting her, “Grandpa and grandma, and your aunt, they will all be alright. When they wake up, we can all go to Disney together.”

“I… I can’t stop, I can’t stop… Daddy… wu wu wu…”

Lin Xiaoxiao cried very sadly.

Lin Mo comforted his daughter over and over, and Li Jinwen also came over, embracing both Lin Xiaoxiao and Lin Mo.

After a long time, Lin Xiaoxiao gradually calmed down.

Li Jinwen held her, sitting on a recliner nearby. Xiaoxiao had been keeping watch all day and it was now very late. Crying herself out, she had fallen asleep.

Li Jinwen looked to his parents, “Dad, Mom, these next few days are going to be a burden on you.”

“What burden is there!”

“Actually, if you think about it, it’s all our fault. If we hadn’t moved to Rakshasa City, none of this would have happened…”

Lin Mo’s mother-in-law began to cry as she spoke.

She had been holding back these words all day.

She felt very guilty.

Because she realized that it was her coming to Rakshasa City that led her in-laws to come here especially for a gathering.

“Mom, don’t talk like that. You can’t say such things about this matter!”

Naturally, Lin Mo couldn’t blame his in-laws.

Li Jinwen placed Lin Xiaoxiao on the recliner, covering her with a blanket, and came over to comfort his own mother as well.

After about ten minutes.

The in-laws supported each other and left the sickroom.

Li Lingling and her husband also left. Before leaving, she sincerely said, “Brother-in-law, I’ll come over again tomorrow. If there’s anything you need help with, remember to call. Uncle is right, we are all one family. Being strangers in a foreign land, the more difficulties we face, the more we need to help each other.”

Although Li Lingling could be harsh, when it came to major right and wrong, she still had a clear head.

Liu Miao also followed up, saying, “That, brother-in-law, I’ll also try to find some connections tomorrow, get in touch with various people, and it would be best if we could get into the special care ward!”

After everyone left, only the unconscious Zhang Li and Lin Siyu remained in the ward.

And sitting between the two hospital beds was Lin Mo, with Lin Xiaoxiao asleep on the recliner beside him.

Soon, Li Jinwen came back as well and sat beside Lin Mo, gently holding his arm, without saying anything.

At that moment,

The heavy rain that had fallen all day had finally stopped, the clouds had dispersed, and looking out the window in the dark of night, a quiet moon was rising, accompanied by the starry sky illuminating the entire heavens.

After the rain, the sky cleared, and the moon shone amidst numerous stars.

Tomorrow is bound to have fine weather, right?
