A few days later, Wei was fidgeting in his ward as Mingshen and Bojing were busy with their checkup. He expectantly moved his head from Mingshen to Bojing and from Bojing back to Mingshen, his eyes beaming with hope and joy.
Mingshen said without raising his head as he wrote on his notepad, "If you turn that damn head of yours one more time, I will snap it with my own hands."
Bojing stumbled, horrified. "B-Boss, he is our patient…"
"Shut up. He is a fucking patient, so he should act like a patient and stay still! Why is he moving around his head like that?"
Wei was unaffected by his outburst and was instead smiling with excitement like a child was going to the amusement park. "Today, I will be back home, right? Right? Right?"
His gaze darkened. Then he sneered. "Mafia King. You see, I am the one who wants to throw you out of my lab as soon as possible. Trust me, nobody is more excited than me."
Wei said with pride in his voice, "You cannot be happier than me because I get to go back to my Lihua," he trembled, his body shaking with anticipation, "The moment I step out of here, I will marry Lihua. She will be my wife again."
Bojing beamed. "R-really, Mr. Jiang? That's such good news!"
His eyes then teared up, and he sniffled. "That's really s-such a g-good news. Sis Lihua will be so h-happy now…She really missed you a lot in these months…"
Mingshen grimaced. "Stop crying and do your job!"
He jolted and nodded hard.
Then he sneered at Wei. "Mr. Jiang. Please keep your excitement to an optimum level. I don't want you to get a heart attack and come back to my lab because if that happens, then I won't even look at you."
Wei didn't care. Instead, he asked, "You didn't answer my question from before. I will get a discharge today, right?"
"Are you asking me or threatening me?"
"If yes, then I am asking you otherwise I am threatening you."
Mingshen smiled. "You see, Mafia King. Just like nobody can teach you how to do your job as the Mafia King, nobody can tell me what I should do as a doctor either. My lab, my decisions. So stop yapping."
Wei frowned and pursed his lips. "I am already healthy now."
"That is for me to decide, not you. So shut up."
After a full cross-examination from all angles and taking all tests, Mingshen finally concluded that it was okay for Wei to get a discharge.
Wei beamed. "I told you."
He could hardly wait anymore to meet Lihua, marry her and take her back home once again with him.
Mingshen sneered. "Don't you think you should say thank you to somebody here who worked day and night to bring you out of your damn coma?"
Wei looked at Mingshen and Bojing and nodded. "Naturally. You two have my deepest gratitude."
Bojing blushed with the praise while Mingshen smiled. "I want gratitude in terms of cash, Mafia King. This is not for free."
Bojing choked.
"Heh. There is also somebody else who should have your gratitude so make sure to feed her well."
Bojing brightened. "Yes, Mr. Jiang! Qingqing helped you a lot! In fact, what she did gave us a lot of areas to study about healing in general! Qingqing is so awesome!" Tears pooled in his eyes once again, feeling proud of Qingqing.
"I don't understand."
When Lihua stepped in with Qingqing, the cat stared at Wei with her beautiful green irises and shrugged. She went back to snuggling against Lihua's chest.
"Qingqing…"
Bojing approached her with a wide smile on his face.
Qingqing meowed and jumped onto his shoulder and perched upon it like a Queen.
Jiang Yubi and Jiang Weizhe had followed Lihua too who couldn't hold their thrill of Wei coming back home. As soon as they got the news, they rushed to Mingshen's lab.
"Wei…"
Jiang Yubi hugged her son, her heart overwhelmed with emotions.
Lihua asked, "What were you talking about Qingqing? I heard she helped Wei from his coma!"
Jiang Yubi wiped her tears. "Yes, tell us too."
Mingshen shrugged and let Bojing take charge, who was more than happy to explain. "Sis Lihua! Do you remember that night Qingqing was sleeping on Mr. Jiang's chest?"
"Of course, I do. Hehe, Qingqing looked so cute sleeping on Wei's chest like that," she grinned.
Bojing eagerly said, "Actually, Qingqing wasn't sleeping. When we looked through his vitals and test reports around the time when he woke up, we found some activity around his heart, and that wasn't because of the drug we injected. I mean, it sure was effective, but Qingqing helped a lot to let the drug take its effect!"
"Ah? I don't understand. How? Qingqing wasn't doing anything."
"She was. We have small cameras in the room to monitor the patients or research subjects in the rooms."
She stiffened.
Does that mean they saw…
Mingshen sneered. "Yes, little chilly. I saw your and Wei's passionate kissing session a few days ago. I wondered why I didn't just gauged my eyes out."
"..."
Jiang Yubi cleared her throat and pretended she heard nothing, the same as her husband.
Bojing brought them back to the point. "When we checked the footage in detail, we observed that he woke up soon after Qingqing sat on his chest. When we zoomed in, we saw her purring very softly. You might have not heard of it. It was very quiet. But when she was purring, we saw a change in his blood pressure. When we did a scan, we found that the tissues on his heart that were in a delicate condition because of the bullet had been repaired in places here and there."
The trio stared at him with utter shock.
Lihua asked in disbelief. "Qingqing repaired Wei's heart!? How? Does she have magical powers!?"
Mingshen sneered in disdain. "This is not a fantasy world, little chilly. Qingqing is a normal cat. She doesn't have any powers, but her purring does have some healing properties which has opened a new door of a whole research world to us."
