Chapter 45: Devastation

With all hope shattered, Tian Jiao'e could no longer hold on and fainted.

Noticing this, Yuan Yutong and the old woman next to her were startled and quickly helped Tian Jiao'e up to prevent her from falling to the ground.

After helping Tian Jiao'e up, Yuan Yutong and the old woman helped Tian Jiao'e to a chair nearby to sit down.

Upon seeing Tian Jiao'e suddenly faint, Huang Runmo rushed over and began administering acupuncture to stabilize her condition, allowing her to regain consciousness.

The matter is not yet resolved; they still need Tian Jiao'e to make the final decision on the treatment plan for Yuan Zhirong.

This matter still needs to be decided by Tian Jiao'e. They dare not bypass Tian Jiao'e and directly take action against Yuan Zhirong, lest they have to bear the responsibility afterward.

During the time Huang Runmo served as the family physician, he had a fairly good understanding of Tian Jiao'e and Yuan Yutong. He knew they wouldn't do such a thing, nor did he have the right to do so.

Even though Yuan Zhirong's injuries were already very serious and could not be delayed, Huang Runmo would not allow himself and Chen Cunfeng to fall into a disadvantageous situation or be schemed against or used.

Thanks to Huang Runmo's timely acupuncture treatment, Tian Jiao'e, who had just fainted, slowly woke up again.

However, after such a huge shock, knowing that her eldest son Yuan Zhirong's injuries had become so severe that even his physical strength had been destroyed, which would affect Yuan Zhirong's subsequent recovery and require a long period of recuperation, she knew that she would definitely not be able to seize this opportunity. Her eldest son Yuan Zhirong's future had been ruined, and Tian Jiao'e's mood and mental state were very poor, and she was still struggling to hold on.

All of this is largely due to her previous indulgence and lack of discipline towards her eldest son, Yuan Zhirong. She bears a heavy responsibility for her son's life being ruined at such a young age!

The more Tian Jiao'e thought about these things, the more she regretted her past actions, yet she was powerless to change them and had to accept this cruel reality, the severe price and consequences.

Should she be asked to make the decision? Tian Jiao'e really didn't want to wake up at this moment, and really didn't want to make this decision herself, so she could only continue to remain silent for the time being.

Seeing Tian Jiao'e like this, how could Huang Runmo not see it now?

Knowing that things couldn't be delayed any longer, Huang Runmo bluntly shattered Tian Jiao'e's thoughts of escaping and continued, "Madam is suffering from a heart attack due to anger and needs to rest in bed."

"Otherwise, if she doesn't take care of herself, she may develop heart problems, which will affect her future life, and the symptoms and consequences will become more and more serious."

"This cannot be ignored. Please take good care of yourself, Madam."

Judging from Tian Jiao'e's current physical condition, she has indeed suffered a severe shock, which has caused her great distress and excessive worry. This can easily affect the Qi of her internal organs, leading to more serious problems.

Since Huang Runmo has noticed these problems, he will directly remind Tian Jiao'e to prevent her from continuing like this, which could really affect her health.

He is currently still the Yuan family's physician, and Huang Runmo is still aware of the proper boundaries in his duties.

Of course, the treatment for Yuan Zhirong's injuries, who is still unconscious in the inner room, should also be decided as soon as possible!

Seeing that Tian Jiao'e remained silent, Huang Runmo continued, "However, we really can't afford to delay with the eldest young master. Please make a decision as soon as possible, Madam."

"If this continues, the injury to his left eye will cause blood to pool in his brain. Given the severity of the injury, the young master may never wake up again."

"Madam, the matter is very urgent. Please make a decision."

Given the current situation, Huang Runmo was determined not to let Tian Jiao'e continue to delay.

If Yuan Zhirong were to be injured even more seriously, or if other accidents were to occur, they would be in serious trouble.

Pressed by Huang Runmo, Tian Jiao'e knew she couldn't avoid it any longer and could only look at Chen Cunfeng and Huang Runmo again, asking with difficulty, "Doctor Chen, Doctor Huang, is there really no other way?"

"Guier, is it really impossible to save his left eye? Does it really need to be gouged out?"

"This concerns Gui'er's future. If we gouge out his left eye, his entire future will be ruined!"

As she spoke of these things, Tian Jiao'e couldn't hold back her tears and began to shed them. She hurriedly wiped them with her handkerchief, but still couldn't stop them.

After enduring for a while, Tian Jiao'e managed to control her emotions slightly before shaking her head and saying with great pain, "Doctor Chen, Doctor Huang, please think of another way!"

"If you can save my son's left eye, please do your best to help with the treatment. We will cooperate fully with whatever you need. We will definitely reward you handsomely afterwards!"

"I... I really don't want to see Gui'er completely ruined! Doctor Chen, you're a doctor at Huichun Pharmacy, your medical skills are superb, you must have a way! I beg you!"

The thought of her eldest son, Yuan Zhirong, having his eyes gouged out, leaving him crippled and his future ruined, was still unbearable for Tian Jiao'e. She continued to plead with Chen Cunfeng, hoping he could find another way to save him, at least to preserve Yuan Zhirong's eyes and prevent them from being gouged out, thus saving his life.

If it were truly possible to achieve that level, Tian Jiao'e would be willing to give it her all, no matter the cost.

Their family has already gained the favor of their clan and been given some opportunities. They need to seize these opportunities to develop better and have a brighter future for the family.

The eldest son, Yuan Zhirong, was the most crucial figure in making all of this possible.

Tian Jiao'e never imagined that her eldest son, Yuan Zhirong, would be so badly injured and have his body hollowed out, ruining all the benefits that were practically within their grasp.

Even though Tian Jiao'e was already very remorseful, she still hoped that Huang Runmo and Chen Cunfeng could protect Yuan Zhirong.

It's possible to lose sight in the left eye, but it's best not to gouge out the eyeball to avoid such obvious disability.

Chen Cunfeng sighed deeply and said, "Madam Yuan, please forgive my limited medical skills; I truly cannot achieve that level of medical expertise."

"The young master's injuries are too severe, exceeding my capabilities."

“If Madam Yuan still wishes to protect the eldest son’s eyes, then Madam Yuan can find someone more capable, but I really cannot do it.”

Although Tian Jiao'e asked that question, she already had the answer in her heart.

Seeing Chen Cunfeng's firm shake of the head in denial, Tian Jiao'e's last shred of hope vanished.

At this moment, Tian Jiao'e's eyes were lifeless, and she could only weakly say, "Doctor Chen, I'll do whatever you say, please save my son's life!"
