The first 200 lines.
Wipe sweat.
I'm a little nervous.
The work you just did was perfect.
I'm not nervous about the surgery. I just feel anxious though.
Scissors.
Forceps.
I communicated with NICU just now.
They normally have bed vacancies.
This child can stay there until the second surgery.
In terms of cost, it'll be about 70 to 80 thousand yuan.
Their family should be able to afford it.
That's quite thorough. You arranged everything in advance, didn't you?
Because I believed you would be able to persuade her.
How crafty you are.
You can express your thanks after the surgery.
Liu Ling?
How come you're out of bed?
Do you need to use the restroom? Come.
I... I want to see my child.
Isn't he still in surgery? It's only been a little over an hour.
There's still at least another hour before he comes out.
I want to go see my other child in General Surgery.
She... She is my daughter.
How are you going to go like this?
What is her name? Why don't I bring her here?
No, no. I...
I just want to see her from afar.
I won't do anything!
Dr. Zhao, please help me.
Dad.
After I get well, are you going to take me to an amusement park?
Yes.
That's why you have to get well quickly.
When you're all better, I'll take you and Grandma
to Hong Kong Disneyland.
Will Snow White and Cinderella be there?
Yes.
Would that cost a lot of money?
The bonuses I received in the past two years
is enough to take you and Grandma to Hong Kong.
Dad.
What is it?
I don't want to go to Disneyland. I want to go find Mom.
Dad, I'll tell you a secret.
What secret?
I saw Mom a few days ago.
Yu Xi, you were mistaken.
I wasn't.
Grandma and the doctors all said it wasn't Mom.
Grandma even cried, so I pretended to believe them.
Actually, I know that was Mom.
Yu Xi.
I know you are a sensible child.
I also believe Mom still loves you.
Liu Ling.
You've been out here for too long.
I have to change dressings for Bed 12. We should head back.
Dr. Zhao, you go first.
Let me stay a little longer. Just for a little bit.
I can't do that.
I brought you out here. If anything happens, I'm responsible.
Unless you sign discharge papers right now.
Otherwise, I can't leave you alone.
Right?
All right, we should head back.
Let's go.
You should be focusing on your son right now.
Don't think about so much.
He needs meticulous care after this surgery.
There are many things you need to learn.
Dr. Zhao.
I know you and Dr. Lu are quite nice to me.
But, I know you all look down on me
and think I'm not an honorable person
and would do anything for money.
We are doctors.
We can't interfere or judge patient's personal lives.
What we have to do is cure your and your son's illnesses.
Cure?
A person can be cured of illness, but can he be cured of himself?
Dr. Zhao.
Do you know what is meant by "Using a wicker basket to draw water"?
Qi Da Wei can't give me any guarantees right now.
Even if I am cured of my illness
I still can't get what I want.
In the past, I refused to live a simple life.
I had to find someone wealthy.
I just like money.
But is it wrong to like money?
Why did God have to do this to me?
Why make my child suffer for my sins?
I was the one who had done wrong.
Why is my son paying for it? I should be.
Don't get too worked up. Don't cry.
You need to recuperate after giving birth.
Thank you for taking me out here to see her.
I'm sorry.
I forgot you still had work.
I've talked too long.
Let's go back.
Blood oxygen has dropped to 85 percent.
Give me another two minutes.
We can give a low flow of oxygen. You don't need to rush.
Okay. Dr. He, low flow of oxygen.
Okay, low flow of oxygen.
Blood oxygen rising.
Blood glucose dropped to 2.0. Add glucose?
Give glucose. Pay attention to the rate.
Okay. Giving glucose now.
Wash the chest cavity.
Not bad.
Perfect.
It's easy to worry about too much after giving birth.
This is a normal phenomenon.
But don't be superstitious. Believe in science. Believe in Dr. Lu.
Dr. Zhao.
I want to use the restroom.
It is about time.
It may be a little difficult in the beginning. Don't worry.
If it doesn't work the first time, keep trying. You'll slowly adjust.
Dr. Zhao.
Can I use the doctors' restroom?
It's private.
I want to take my time so I can be more comfortable.
All right. I'll go get the key. Wait here for me.
Lulu, blood loss volume?
You've asked five times already. It's definitely less than 10 milliliters.
It's been five to six years since I've done this chest closure work.
When Dr. Lu asked for blood loss volume for the fourth time
I was afraid that if Fang Zhi Wei did the closure
he would be scolded even if there was just a little bit more blood lost.
Who knew that even when I'm closing up myself
Dr. Lu still isn't at ease.
The baby is so small. Even half a milliliter is precious.
All right.
After you're done, be careful on your way back to your room.
I'm going to Bed 12 to change dressings.
- I'll come by later to get the key. - Thank you.
I'll definitely change.
If one time doesn't do it, then I'll take my time changing.
What?
Did you work yourself silly today?
I now understand clearly more than ever before.
Understand what?
Understand where I am lacking compared to you.
Just because I had made arrangements for Liu Ling's child?
The whole day, I've been preoccupied with quickly obtaining the surgery consent
so we could save this child.
That's why I made graphs and studied data
and waited outside her door, afraid she would run off.
Yet, I never made proper considerations for her future.
Instead, you were the one to invite my cured patient to come persuade her
and arranged a NICU spot for the child
so he can receive the appropriate care after surgery.
You were more considerate than I was.
What are you trying to convey by saying all this?
You just want to say I'm better than you, right? I already know.
You... No wonder you don't have a girlfriend.
Wait.
I mean to say...
I'm lucky you're here. Thank you.
Liu Ling?
Are you inside?
Liu Ling?
Liu Ling? Are you inside?
Are you okay?
Get the key, quick!
Liu Ling, open the door!
Dr. Lu, hurry to Obstetrics!
What happened?
It's too late.
It's over.
You can stop now.
Dr. Lu, I'm sorry.
In the end, I still chose to be a deserter
abandoning my child once again.
I have no husband, no job.
The house and money I once thought were at hand, have come to nothing.
In the future, I have to face a child who requires meticulous care by myself
as well as my own surgery.
I can't bear it.
This child was once my only hope.
I wanted to use him to snare a marriage
and obtain a stable and plentiful life.
On the first ultrasound, he was said to have a deformity
and I wanted to die.
But I couldn't accept it.
I deceived myself, hoping a miracle would happen.
But what reality gave me
was only retribution, no miracles.
Dr. Lu.
You said this child cannot speak yet.
Nobody can be certain he doesn't want to live.
So that's why I couldn't deprive him of a chance to keep on living.
But, I am very certain I do not want to keep on living like this.
The only thing I can do for this child and for Yu Xi
is to let them be free of a mother like me.
I know what happened.
Where are you?
I want to save people.
