After Rebirth, the Celebrity Daughter is the Medical Expert!-Chapter 74 - 56: If You Leave, Our Paths Will Never Cross Again_4
Liu Susu ran forward and asked, "Doctor, how is it?"
The doctor shook his head gravely.
"Family, please accept my condolences, we did our best."
The hands that the young boy had resting on his knees suddenly fell limp.
You Guang’s breath caught.
Liu Susu burst into tears, asking the doctor helplessly, "Doctor, what should we do now?"
The doctor was also a bit puzzled as to why, after resuscitating for so long in the operating room, only the wife and children who followed the ambulance, along with a little girl, had come over.
However, this was not a moment for him to gossip.
"Do you want to take him home, or should we leave him in the morgue and wait to take him directly to the funeral home?"
"..." Liu Susu was stunned; she didn’t know either.
She was crying while looking blankly at the doctor and then at her son, who was staring at the operating room, not knowing what to do.
Shi Wangyue turned his head to look at his sister, who was watching him with worried eyes. He recalled her saying, "Little Wangyue, stay calm in the face of trouble. If a person becomes flustered when faced with a situation, they won’t be able to use their skills no matter how adept they are. On the other hand, if they can ’remain unfazed even if Mount Tai crumbles before them,’ they can find ways to resolve the crisis."
"Sister, I don’t know what to do." He was filled with desperate sorrow, speaking to Ning Youguang in a near whisper.
You Guang leaned her ear closer to his mouth to hear him clearly and then hugged him tightly, her tears flowing as she calmly said,
"First, call home and ask the family how they plan to arrange things. If no one’s arranged anything, we’ll find someone to do it ourselves."
The boy’s body was as cold as ice on that warm summer night in July.
You Guang felt her heart clench, but her mind swiftly calmed down.
"Auntie, why don’t you call the family?"
"Alright." Liu Susu seemed to have found a pillar of support and finally picked up her phone to shakily call the Shi family.
When Shi Tingsong had been put into the ambulance that afternoon, the home’s workers had seen it.
The Shi family already knew that Shi Tingsong had fallen from upstairs and was being resuscitated at the hospital. The call from Liu Susu was quickly answered.
Liu Susu explained to the Shi family what was happening at the hospital, and they quickly responded.
With tears, Liu Susu hung up the phone and told her son, "They said your father can’t be brought home."
Without being able to take him home, the only choices were the funeral home or the crematorium, both of which needed to be arranged in advance.
Shi Tingsong’s sudden death meant no prior bookings had been made for the funeral home, let alone the crematorium.
"Doctor, is there someone in the hospital who can perform last rites?" You Guang asked.
"No, there isn’t."
"Alright, we understand," You Guang turned to Liu Susu, "Auntie, it’s very late now, let’s find a hotel nearby for the night."
After someone dies, families with taboos don’t let anyone who’ve seen the deceased enter their homes, especially considering how the Shi family treated Wangyue’s family. You Guang felt it would be safer to go to a hotel.
Liu Susu and Shi Wangyue were like headless flies at that moment, not knowing what to do. With someone to rely on at last, they naturally listened to her.
The doctor, watching this little girl calmly making arrangements, found it quite remarkable.
"Yes, have a good rest tonight and contact the funeral home to return to the hospital tomorrow."
"Okay." Liu Susu nodded absentmindedly.
Soon, hospital morgue staff pushed in a cart, wrapped Shi Tingsong’s body, and took it from the operating room to the morgue.
When Shi Tingsong was moved to the morgue, Shi Wangyue collapsed in tears on the ground, howling like a grieving animal.
You Guang stayed by his side, her tears flowing continuously.
That night, You Guang spent the night talking with Wangyue in the hotel.
The child initially didn’t talk, just cried. He cried for a long time before he started speaking, "Sister, I don’t have a dad anymore. I don’t have a dad anymore."
You Guang leaned against him and gently said, "How could you not have a dad? As long as you remember him, he’ll always be alive, living in your heart. And once freed from this life’s physical body, your dad will return to the original and best form of his soul and will soon find a better body to experience a new life."
"I saw in a book that even if a person was disabled or sick in this life, during the intermediate stage before rebirth, they would have a perfect mental body, which is described in an ancient classic to be the size of a child about eight to ten years old.
This means Uncle can go anywhere without obstacles, including beside you. He feeds on scents and nourishes himself from burning offerings, but he can only enjoy offerings made in his name.
So tomorrow, when it’s convenient, we can hold a memorial for him, provide offerings, and help him walk a better path to a better world."
"For the forty-nine days after his passing, he will exist in the most perfect state of soul, wise and intelligent. You can tell him anything you want to say, and he will understand.
If he thinks of someone, he will return to the human world to see them.
Maybe he’s with us right now; you can talk to him, think about him, but you don’t need to be overly sad.
Because he loves you so much, once he feels that you can’t let go of him, he’ll be unable to move on to another world, a better world, and will keep wandering in the human world.
After 49 days, he’ll forget who he is and not know where to go, becoming a soul with nowhere to belong."
She said, "Wangyue, death is not an end but a beginning. You also want your dad to get a better body and live a better life, right?"
The boy, as if in a dream, nodded: "Yes." Yet, he was not as lost as before. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Because he found what he should do from now on and what he could do for his dad.
That night.
Shi Wangyue was also told by his sister that his dad was a fallen angel. Though not smart, he had the purest heart in the world and a unique soul.
His dad loved him very much, and he had the most loving dad in the world. His future will be to experience life with the greatest love his dad gave him.
He inherited endless strength from his father, and he will be truly wealthy.
At that time, he didn’t understand how many meanings "wealth" could have.
Later on, someone asked Master Wangyue what was the best and most precious food he had ever eaten in his life?
The gentleman as beautiful as jade in the wind smiled and said, "Candy and buns."
The candy given by his sister, and the buns given by his dad.
