After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!

Chapter 781: Chapter 629: Second Update

"Today I suddenly had a stroke of inspiration and came up with a great idea to make a little money. I’m so happy that I wanted to treat everyone to dinner and celebrate with you all."

Although the real reason was to thank everyone for visiting her at the hospital after her car accident, this wasn’t something she felt was appropriate to say directly.

Ning Youguang just made up an excuse.

The senior students in the research lab didn’t realize she was making it up, and were all amused after hearing what she said—

"Wow! What’s the great money-making idea? Can you share it with us?"

"Does Ning have a lucrative project?"

"Don’t forget us when you’re rich."

"Sure, sure."

"In that case, we won’t be shy."

"I want a feast!"

Ning Youguang took the opportunity to ask everyone, "Have you decided what you want to eat?"

This time, their responses were quite unanimous, "Xiao Siji."

The location for the dinner was agreed upon.

Ning Youguang then turned to Brother Duan, "Brother Duan, would you like to join us for dinner? If not, what would you like to eat? I can have the staff bring it to you later."

The others chimed in encouragingly, "Old Duan, come with us."

"You can’t skip a meal waiting for the results."

"You can wait while eating, too."

"..."

Waiting for results is one thing, but meals are still necessary.

Originally intending to stay in the office and wait for news from home, Brother Duan was persuaded by everyone, "I’ll go with you."

...

When Ning Youguang and the others arrived at "Xiao Siji," possibly because of the cold weather, there weren’t many students eating out, so the restaurant had plenty of empty seats.

They quickly settled into a private room and started eating with enthusiasm.

The taste of the dishes at "Xiao Siji" was as good as ever.

Even Brother Duan, who had been harboring worries, found temporary solace the moment he tasted the fragrant, spicy fried beef.

Seeing his mood improve, the atmosphere among the others lightened up, becoming even more lively and relaxed.

Since everyone had to work in the afternoon, nobody drank alcohol.

Ning Youguang specially ordered some nourishing soup for everyone to drink.

In the chilly winter, gathering around the table to eat a warm meal and sip delicious soup was incredibly satisfying.

Everyone was eating happily.

As lunch was nearing its end.

Brother Duan’s phone, placed on the table, rang.

The screen lit up right in front of everyone, and those sitting nearby saw who was calling.

"Old Duan? Your mom’s calling."

Not only was Brother Duan waiting for news from his mom, but everyone else was too.

At this moment, his mom calling had a purpose probably not far from what they imagined.

In curiosity, Brother Duan nervously answered the call from his mom.

Brother Duan’s mother was typically direct and wasted no time expressing her happiness over the phone from the hospital, "Son! Make sure to thank your younger sister for us. Your grandmother has been saved!"

Perhaps because his mom was so happy, her speaking tone was extremely excited and her voice was loud, so loud that even though Brother Duan didn’t have the speaker on, the senior schoolmate beside him heard her clearly on the phone.

Her eyes instantly lit up.

Everyone else had already focused their attention on Brother Duan when he took his mom’s call.

Seeing the expression of the senior schoolmate next to him, they knew that it was almost certainly good news.

Their faces lit up with joy one by one.

Soon, Brother Duan smiled and ended the call, and was bombarded with questions, "How’s it going?"

"Was Ning right?"

"What’s actually happening with your grandma?"

Looking at the beaming faces around him, Brother Duan’s typically shy face broke into a big smile, "Yes, Ning was right."

Then, he turned, full of gratitude, to Ning Youguang, "Ning, my mom says that after investigation, the doctors confirmed that the end of my grandma’s previous stent wasn’t properly placed, which caused repeated emergencies. Now that the cause has been identified, the doctors have scheduled another surgery for her to reposition the stent."

"Wow!!!!"

Upon hearing the confirmed news, the senior students were even happier.

"That’s great!"

"Congratulations!"

"Let’s raise a toast to Ning instead of alcohol!"

"Definitely, Ning is truly a miracle worker!"

"Young sister, is there anything you don’t know? A Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner understanding Western medicine."

"No, no, I don’t know Western medicine; I just understand the body’s structure."

Among the laughter, Ning Youguang humbly replied.

Brother Duan was undoubtedly the happiest person there.

He sat in his seat, smiling, watching the senior brothers and sisters teasing Ning Youguang until they’d almost said everything, then picked up the teapot and refilled his cup. He carefully walked over to Ning Youguang, bowed without saying a word.

She was taken aback.

Ning Youguang jumped out of her seat to help Brother Duan, "Brother, don’t do that."

Brother Duan stood up straight and then earnestly said to Ning Youguang, "Ning, from today on, you’re my grandma’s savior and my family’s great benefactor. My mom asked me to thank you on behalf of my family!"

Over the phone, Brother Duan’s mother told him—"Son, the doctors said that with your grandma’s stent repositioned successfully, her hope for recovery is great. Ah, this is wonderful, just wonderful! You must really thank your younger sister today; she’s our family’s great benefactor, your grandma’s savior. Thank goodness for her! Without her, your grandma might not have survived..."

Later, the atmosphere in the private room became lively due to everyone’s heightened emotions.

As a result, the upcoming words from Brother Duan’s mom on the phone could only be heard by Brother Duan alone.

So everyone didn’t know that besides being extremely excited and happy while sharing the good news, Brother Duan’s mom quickly broke into tears.

Of course, Brother Duan understood that his mom’s crying was tears of joy.

Completely different from the hopeless tears when she told him over the phone earlier, "Your grandma couldn’t be saved!"

As her son, Brother Duan understood why his mom was so emotionally excited.

For he knew very well the significance of his grandma to their family.

That’s why, when he heard his mom telling him to truly thank Ning, he immediately came over and bowed to her, and offered his sincere gratitude.

Yet, he understood that this bow was far from enough to repay Ning’s grace towards their entire family.

His mom also said over the phone, "Once your grandma’s stent is repositioned and her condition stabilizes, I’ll go to your school with your aunt personally to thank Ning!"

But that, he felt, didn’t need to be mentioned right now. 1314
