Chapter 284: Between 2 Men
Mo Li walked over to Quan Yu’s side and patiently massaged his limps. Mo Li was an atheist but at that moment, she prayed that Quan Yu would wake up as soon as possible.
Initially, her plan was to treat Mo Zheng’s legs first and then Quan Yu’s congenital heart disease. However, his current physical condition wouldn’t survive the surgery. The surgery required the surgeon to cut through the sternum to expose the patient’s heart. This came with 2 complications, 1, the surgery would be very exhaustive; 2, it would leave behind a nasty scar.
According to the original story, Quan Yu could die from his heart illness at any moment. It was also hereditary so normal non-invasive surgery wouldn’t help him. Even if Mo Li conducted the surgery and the surgery was successful, Quan Yu wouldn’t recover to the level of a normal person. However, at least he wouldn’t need to be constantly worried about his heart failing him anymore. He could work, study, exercise like a normal person. He only needed to take care of his diet and had to rely on medications to adjust his body. Drugs like digoxin and spironolactone would be necessary to help his heart.
However, for that, Quan Yu had to wake up first. Even though Lu Xuan said that Quan Yu was fine, Mo Li knew Quan Yu had lost a lot of blood and was in a temporary coma, no one knew when he would wake up. Staring at his steady heartbeat, all Mo Li could do now was to come to visit him from time to time.
Mo Li exited one ward and entered another. Mo Xiao’s body was healing. Even though she had not technically heard his voice since they reunited, Mo Li also hoped that his brother would wake up soon enough. Mo Li examined Mo Xiao’s vitals and sighed in relief when everything looked fine. When she was about to turn to leave, someone grabbed her wrist. “You’re finally awake?” There was only Mo Xiao in the room, so who else could it be?
Mo Xiao’s eyes slowly fluttered open. Even though he was injured, he was conscious. He knew who had saved him. Even though he couldn’t believe it, he had to accept that in the half a year he was away, his wastrel of a little sister had become an impressive doctor. It was also Mo Li who saved him from the Goddess of the Sea.
“When did you learn all these skills?” Mo Xiao’s voice was hoarse and he spoke very slowly. He hadn’t fully covered so he could only manage a few words.
“You need to rest. We can talk about this when you feel better.” Mo Li wanted to give Mo Xiao a proper explanation, but based on his condition, she felt it was best if he was given an uninterrupted rest.
Mo Xiao had more questions but the pain drowned him out. He drifted back to sleep. Yes, I’ll know more after I recover.
He was certain that Mo Li had sacrificed a lot to save him from the ship.
Mo Li walked out from the ward and sat on the bench in the corridor. She went through the events in her mind. The case was close. Dong Yun was murdered because he was close to exposing the secrets of the Goddess of the Sea. Yu Xuan was ordered to murder Dong Yun.
Zhao Jing and Pink Rabbit were silenced because they threatened to expose the dark secrets of the Goddess of the Sea.
However… Mo Li thought of the people around her. Nie Li, Ah Si, Ah Zhong, Zhan Hai, how were these people involved? Was the case really over? There had to be something about Flower Appraisal that she still hadn’t figured out!
Mo Li took a deep breath and called Xiao Rui. “I need to meet someone.”
At the station, Yu Xian and Mo Li sat opposite each other. “You finally dealt with the Goddess of the Sea.”
“We were just lucky.” Mo Li didn’t hate this woman, she liked to deal with clever people.
“Officer Xiao has found Dong Yun’s eyeball inside my little sister’s stomach. If I have ordered her to deal with it any other way, perhaps you wouldn’t have been able to pin it on me. However, that was the only solution that we had at the time.”
Xiao Rui shivered whenever he thought about the fact that this woman had ordered his sister to eliminate the evidence using this method.
At that moment, Kang Zhi ran in very excitedly. “Boss! Mo Li! I’ve found it! I’ve found the cipher Headmaster Shen used to contact Flower Appraisal! It is in an exercise book!” Xiao Rui glared at Kang Zhi and tossed a towel at him. “Shush, not now!”
Seeing Yu Xuan, Kang Zhi hurriedly covered his mouth. “Yes, yes, yes. Let’s talk outside then.”
