Chapter 411: Su Jianguo Has Woken Up

Two days later.

The hospital room was deathly silent.

Aside from Su Yan and Zhou Li, there was also Su Jianguo's attending physician, Li Si, who stood before the hospital bed with a grim expression.

Su Yan claimed there was a liquid that could wake the long-comatose Su Jianguo, but Li Si did not believe her at all.

As Su Jianguo's attending physician, he understood Su Jianguo's condition better than anyone.

Su Jianguo had essentially entered a vegetative state; no medication would have any significant effect on him. Unless a miracle occurred, it was absolutely impossible for him to regain consciousness.

Furthermore, no matter how much he requested, Su Yan refused to hand over the liquid for him to examine, which made him even more opposed to the matter.

However, as Su Jianguo's only relative, if Su Yan insisted on doing it, he had no way to stop her.

"Su Yan, I need to remind you once more. Your father's condition is currently stable. If any deterioration occurs after he drinks your so-called liquid, it could very well endanger his life."

Li Si's voice was extremely solemn.

In his view, a girl Su Yan's age making such a move was nothing more than acting recklessly.

"Dr. Li, you don't need to persuade me. I have already decided," Su Yan's attitude was incredibly firm.

In fact, before entering the ward, she had already signed a waiver for Li Si.

Li Si's brow furrowed into a knot, his face written with protest.

"Dr. Li, please rest assured. Even if Senior Sister Su's liquid cannot wake Uncle Su, it definitely won't cause any harm," standing to the side, Zhou Li explained with absolute certainty upon seeing him try to stop Su Yan.

Moreover, in his opinion, Su Yan was simply too soft-tempered. If it were him, he wouldn't bother going through a doctor for such a thing.

Li Si gave him a disgruntled glare.

Who exactly was the doctor here, him or these kids?

He had no idea where these children got such "wild medicines" and treated them like precious treasures.

If the patient actually woke up because of this, he would bang his head against the floor until he died right here.

"Since you won't listen to anything I say, then bear the consequences yourselves."

He had said everything that needed to be said. Now, the only thing he could pray for was that the patient's condition would not worsen.

Su Yan took out the Profound Spirit Liquid and approached Su Jianguo.

At this moment, her hands were trembling slightly.

Zhou Li noticed her nervousness and encouraged her softly, "Senior Sister Su, do it boldly. Nothing will happen."

The Profound Spirit Liquid was a heavenly treasure; it would never harm a life.

Su Yan took a deep breath and aimed the mouth of the bottle at the corner of Su Jianguo's mouth.

One drop.

Two drops.

Her movements were very slow, feeding it to him while keeping a close eye on Su Jianguo's reaction.

By the time the bottle of Profound Spirit Liquid was empty, her heart was in her throat.

Li Si was equally nervous, having even prepared himself to immediately perform emergency resuscitation on Su Jianguo.

Time passed bit by bit.

For a full ten minutes, Su Jianguo still showed no reaction.

Li Si stepped forward to check his condition.

Sweat was already breaking out in Su Yan's palms.

If even the Profound Spirit Liquid couldn't wake her father, then she could only truly leave it to fate.

"I told you it wouldn't work," Li Si quickly reached this conclusion, though he felt a sense of relief in his heart.

No effect meant that the condition had not worsened.

Zhou Li stared at Su Jianguo, unwilling to give up. It didn't make sense, did it?

Li Si lingered for a few more minutes, and seeing still no abnormality, he couldn't help but look at Su Yan.

"Su Yan, I can understand your desire to have your father wake up, but please, don't do these meaningless and dangerous things anymore."

After saying this, he prepared to leave. Although he had wasted half an hour, it was worth it if he could get relatives like them to abandon such superstitious practices.

Su Yan didn't hear a word he said; she stared motionlessly at Su Jianguo, waiting for a miracle to happen.

Suddenly, Zhou Li said with a hint of pleasant surprise, "Senior Sister Su, his finger moved!"

Though it was only a tiny movement, he had seen it clearly.

Su Yan's breathing suddenly quickened, and she had to use all her strength to keep herself calm.

Li Si, who had already walked to the ward door, turned back, his eyes widening significantly.

"That's absolutely impossible. Are you seeing things?"

Before his doubt could even fade, Su Jianguo's eyelids began to tremble slightly.

And this time, they all saw it clearly.

Su Yan's eyes reddened as she leaned toward Su Jianguo's ear, calling out, "Dad, please wake up!"

A moment later, under the tense gaze of the three, Su Jianguo actually opened his eyes.

At this moment, Su Yan could no longer control the tears in her eyes.

It was so good; her father had finally woken up.

Zhou Li felt a weight lift off his shoulders and subsequently broke into a smile.

Although he had great confidence in the Profound Spirit Liquid, he only truly relaxed at this moment.

Li Si checked Su Jianguo rapidly, his emotions visibly agitated.

"Su Jianguo, can you hear me? If you can hear me, blink your eyes."

Not only did Su Jianguo blink, but he also directly made a sound.

"Yan... Yan..."

Su Yan wept with joy, tightly grasping Su Jianguo's palm.

After a brief moment of confusion, Su Jianguo's gaze cleared completely, and he slowly raised his other hand to gently stroke Su Yan's hair.

Li Si was too shocked to think; this was simply a medical miracle!

After confirming that Su Jianguo's condition was indeed fine, he excitedly signaled Zhou Li to go out with him.

"What kind of medicine did you give the patient?"

Li Si's voice was clearly trembling with suppressed excitement.

Zhou Li, of course, understood what he was thinking. "It's just a type of liquid medicine that can treat a patient's coma."

"Is there any more of this medicine? Even just a few drops would do!" Li Si even had an expression of pleading.

If he could obtain this liquid and research its components, it would be a boon to all of humanity!

Zhou Li shook his head. "As you just saw, Senior Sister Su has already used up all of the liquid."

Li Si still wouldn't give up. "Then where did you buy this medicine? Tell me the address!"

"It's not that I won't tell you, but the person who sold it to us is itinerant. We tried to find him later, but we had no way to do so," Zhou Li lied with a straight face.

Li Si's brow tied itself into a knot; it felt as if he knew there was a mountain of gold right in front of him, yet he simply couldn't find the entrance.

"Is there really no way?"

"There is no way," Zhou Li answered quite firmly.

The fact that a treasure like the Profound Spirit Liquid existed among Exorcists was already the best possible outcome; if the world knew about it, it would certainly not be able to remain.

Li Si was extremely disappointed.

Yet, he was utterly helpless.

It seemed he truly had been looking at the sky from the bottom of a well, being so ignorant that he had no idea such a miraculous liquid even existed.
