My Youth Began With Him

“Alright, I’ll be there immediately.” When Huo Mian heard that her father-in-law fainted, she immediately took the day off and drove to the First Hospital.

– Outside the VIP room –

“Doctor Liu, how’s my father-in-law?”

“Dr. Huo, your dad’s situation isn’t looking good. He has high blood pressure and his heart is fragile. The stress made the situation even worse.”

“What should we do now? Does he have to undergo surgery?”

“My suggestion is to keep him under observation in the hospital for now. At his age, the chances don’t look good. Look at this, this is the CT from the neurology department…” Doctor Liu then handed Qin Yumin’s medical file to Huo Mian, who read through it before looking up at Dr. Liu with a stern expression on her face.

“You’re right, surgery isn’t the best option right now. I agree with what you said. Lower my dad’s blood pressure for now. High blood pressure is too dangerous, it can cause a vein rupture in the brain at any moment and cause a brain hemorrhage.”

“Mhm.”

“Thank you, Doctor Liu.”

“Don’t mention it, we’ve known each other for a while now. I’ll go back to work then, you can see the patient now.”

“Mhm.” Huo Mian nodded. When she entered the room, only Mrs. Qin was by his side.

She held Qin Yumin’s hand worryingly as if she was saying something. Tears rolled down her face.

“What are you crying for? I’m not dead yet,” Qin Yumin replied weakly.

Huo Mian took in a deep breath, walked over, and greeted them, “Dad, are you feeling better now?”

“Mian, you’re here.”

“Mian.” Mrs. Qin turned around too, and the couple looked at Huo Mian.

“Mhm, I heard that you fainted and was really worried.”

“I’m fine, it’s just some old problems… You’re busy with work, you shouldn’t run back and forth.” Qin Yumin looked like he didn’t want to inconvenience his children.

“Dad, we’re family. Nothing is more important than your health.”

Huo Mian walked closer, found the speed of the infusion to be too fast, and adjusted it. “Dad, I talked to your doctor. He’s a really famous neurosurgeon. Don’t worry and relax, he said that you’re fine.”

“I can’t, Chu’s not at the company, and there’s a lot of things to take care of. I have to go back.” Qin Yumin looked like he didn’t want to stay at the hospital.

“Yumin, listen to Mian. Look at yourself, you can’t possibly go back. Is money more important than your health?” Mrs. Qin seemed to be scared as she clutched her husband’s hand tightly.

“But…” Qin Yumin seemed like he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Huo Mian interrupted him.

“Dad, I’ll take care of everything at the company. I called for a day off at the hospital, so just leave the company to me before Qin Chu comes back. You should just focus on recovering, don’t think about anything else, okay?” Huo Mian seemed like she was trying to convince a child as she persuaded the kind old man.

“Did you hear what Mian said? Mian’s the best doctor at this hospital, you should listen to what she’s saying.” Mrs. Qin tried to convince her husband as well.

“There are a lot of things to take care of, Mian. Can you handle it?” Qin Yumin was still pretty worried.

“Dad, I’ll handle it.” Huo Mian smiled confidently.

Then, Huo Mian helped contact the best caretaker at the hospital to take care of her father-in-law. She didn’t leave until after buying them lunch. “Mom, I’m going to head over to GK now, here’s lunch and some fruit. Take good care of Dad, I’ll come by after work.”

“Mhm, go. I’ll take care of him here.”

When she left the hospital, Huo Mian called Qin Chu and told him that his dad was fine and not to worry.

Only then did Qin Chu rest at ease and continue taking care of the things in T City.

– At GK’s Headquarters –

Huo Mian went back to South Hill Manor to change into a casual black suit before going to the company.

After all, it was a company, not a hospital. She didn’t have the luxury to wear whatever she wanted to.

When Huo Mian arrived, it was the president’s lead assistant, Bella, who greeted her.

She was Qin Chu’s most competent assistant other than Yang. She was a strong independent woman and a workaholic.

“Young Madam, you’re here.”

“Mhm, please inform everyone that there will be an executive meeting in five minutes.”

“Is President Qin back?” Bella froze for a second, and Huo Mian shook her head. “I’m holding it.”
