Chapter 60 Guo Shu Critically Ill
```
Fang Jueyu hurriedly started the car while dialing Guo Xinyu's number. After a long silence, a sobbing voice came from the other side.
"Xinyu, don't worry. How is your dad now? Take your time to tell me!" Fang Jueyu said as calmly and gently as possible.
"I'm not sure either. A few days ago, a foreign medical team happened to come to Huaxia for an exchange, and my dad was lucky enough to become their patient. In these past few days, his complexion and health have improved significantly, and the dialysis has been much less frequent."
Fang Jueyu knew that it must have been Zhuang Ying who arranged for that medical team.
"And then?"
"Just now, my dad only had some lean meat porridge, but he suddenly started convulsing all over. The doctors said it was heart failure, and he's being resuscitated now." As she spoke, Guo Xinyu's voice was already choked with tears.
"What on earth is going on here?" Fang Jueyu asked Xiao Yi. "As long as regular dialysis is maintained, shouldn't uremic patients be able to live normally? A little porridge wouldn't cause this, right?"
"Host, uremia in humans is a very complicated disease. Usually, when uremic patients fall ill and pass away, it isn't directly related to the kidneys but rather due to anemia, bone issues, heart failure, and various other complications. I find it difficult to understand Xinyu's father's condition right now."
"Can those failed elixirs left by my ancestors cure his body?" Fang Jueyu asked anxiously.
"There should be no problem. As long as it doesn't involve severe physical limb damage, most conditions can be cured. Uremia should be able to be treated!"
With these words from Xiao Yi, Fang Jueyu finally felt a bit more at ease.
"Xinyu, I'm coming over right now. Don't be so anxious; I have a way to cure your dad!"
"You're not a doctor, how can you cure him?" Guo Xinyu thought Fang Jueyu was just trying to comfort her.
"Of course, I'm not a doctor, but I own many large hospitals and research institutions. My research facilities have already made significant progress in treating uremia, and we've even developed a special medication. It's just not yet officially used or produced!"
"I'll be there soon! I'm on my way now!" Fang Jueyu sped up. Jiangnan City's First People's Hospital and the high-tech industrial park just now were almost half a city apart, and it took more than an hour to drive there.
By the time Fang Jueyu arrived at the hospital, it was completely dark. He found his way outside the operating room, where Guo Xinyu sat on a chair, covering her face and sobbing. Next to her were a middle-aged woman and a boy who looked about eleven or twelve.
"Xinyu!" Fang Jueyu walked over to her, gently placing his arm around her shoulders.
Guo Xinyu trembled all over. She looked up, still with a glistening tear hanging from her curved eyelashes. All this time, she had borne almost all the pressure from home. Even a strong woman couldn't hold up any longer.
Upon seeing Fang Jueyu, it was as if she found an outlet for her emotions, burying her head directly in Fang Jueyu's chest and began to cry.
Fang Jueyu felt a bit at a loss. He couldn't stand seeing girls cry, especially the girl he liked.
"Alright, don't cry. I'm here!" Fang Jueyu gently patted her back and then wiped away her tears.
"Xinyu, who is this…" Xinyu's mother looked at Fang Jueyu and asked. From Guo Xinyu's reaction just now, it wasn't hard to see that the relationship between the two seemed not so simple.
"Oh, Auntie, I'm Xinyu's friend. You can call me Xiao Yu," Fang Jueyu said.
"Mom, I told you about him. He's the one who helped me on the live-streaming platform."
Guo Xinyu's mother nodded and gave Fang Jueyu a slightly tired smile. Guo Xinyu had mentioned him briefly.
Initially, when Guo Xinyu started live streaming, her mother was adamantly against it. In the eyes of the older generation, this was almost no different from not doing honest work. However, due to Guo Xinyu's insistence and the family situation, Yao Yefang had no choice but to let her have her way.
Not long ago, Guo Xinyu suddenly sent a large sum of money home. Yao Yefang's first reaction was not happiness, but worry. If a wealthy businessman gave a small streamer over a million RMB in gifts, didn't he have any ulterior motives?
Until today, when Fang Jueyu finally met him, although it was just for a short while, his courtesy and the tenderness in his eyes when he looked at Guo Xinyu removed most of the defenses in Yao Yefang's heart at once.
"Auntie, how long has Uncle been in there?"
"It's been almost two hours now!" Yao Yefang said worriedly. This long resuscitation time indicated that Guo Shu's situation was very severe.
"You haven't eaten yet, have you? I bought some porridge downstairs at the hospital. You should eat something first." Fang Jueyu picked up the plastic bags he had previously placed on the chair.
"Did you eat?" After such a long ordeal, Guo Xinyu, her mother, and her brother Guo Junyu were all somewhat hungry, but they had no appetite.
"I ate; don't worry. Uncle will be fine. He will need you to take care of him later. If you don't eat, how can you have the energy to take care of him?" Fang Jueyu directly opened the plastic bag and handed the food to them.
"Xinyu, eat a little!" Mother Yao Yefang also persuaded. What Fang Jueyu said was not unreasonable.
"Mm!" Guo Xinyu nodded and began to eat. In reality, she was already so hungry that she felt numb.
…
The resuscitation lasted for three full hours. With the doctors' efforts, Guo Shu finally overcame the danger. There were several moments when he almost couldn't be saved.
Guo Shu was pushed into the ward, and after explaining some precautions, the doctors left.
The effects of anesthesia had yet to wear off. Guo Shu lay with his eyes closed. The torment of illness had left his body emaciated, but one could still see that he was a very elegant middle-aged man.
"Mom, you and Xiao Yu should go home first and rest. I'll stay here and keep watch. Xiao Yu has to go to tutoring classes tomorrow!" With Guo Shu's condition stabilized, the burden in their hearts relaxed.
"Can you manage on your own?" Yao Yefang was a bit worried.
"It's okay, Auntie. I'll stay here with Xinyu, you can go home and rest assured," Fang Jueyu smiled, "Or do you not trust me?"
"Oh no, please don't misunderstand," Yao Yefang quickly waved her hands, "I don't mean that."
"Hahaha, I'm just joking," he said, "You should go back. If anything happens, Xinyu and I will let you know. We got this covered here."
"Then… thank you for taking care of Xinyu and her dad," Yao Yefang said gratefully.
Once Fang Yefang and Guo Junyu left, the ward became significantly quieter. It was a special ward arranged by Zhuang Ying, not only large and comfortable but also fully equipped. Even for Fang Jueyu, it was his first time coming to such a ward.
"Do you want to sleep for a while?" Seeing Guo Xinyu's slightly exhausted eyes, Fang Jueyu felt a pang of sympathy.
"Will you leave?" Guo Xinyu looked at him as if, with Fang Jueyu's arrival, she found her grounding.
"I won't leave. I'll be right here!"
Fang Jueyu silently said in his heart, "I won't leave now, and I won't leave in the future..."
