Chapter 631: Chapter 631 Doctor Qiao, does this person know you?
Director Song had already left with his team to visit other wards. The only person left here was a nurse who had been taking care of the patient. The same nurse who had called Qiao Yin.
Upon seeing Qiao Yin, the nurse’s eyes lit up, “Doctor Qiao, you’re here!”
Qiao Yin nodded at her and walked over to the patient.
The patient looked straight at her, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
The nurse smiled at him, “This is the doctor who woke you up. Her name is Qiao Yin. You can call her Doctor Qiao. You should be very grateful to her. She has been relentlessly treating you with acupuncture which has allowed you to wake up. Without her, you would still be in a vegetative state!”
It took the patient a while to digest this information. Using a hoarse voice, he finally managed to speak, “Thank … you … Doctor … Qiao.”
Qiao Yin smiled, “You’re welcome. Don’t worry about remembering everything right now, you have been lying here for so long, your brain is still not used to being awake. It will be better in a few days.”
The patient nodded vaguely.
Seeing his condition, the nurse couldn’t help but feel some pity, “Sigh, it’s kind of sad. Right now, he seems like a young, confused child. It’s hard for him to speak and it takes him a long time to respond to what we say, sometimes he doesn’t even respond correctly.”
While taking the patient’s pulse, Qiao Yin said, “Yes, this happens when a vegetative patient wakes up. But his pulse is very good, his recovery should be faster than others.”
“But, what do we do when he doesn’t remember anything? His face is also … in this dreadful condition. I fear even his family would not be able to recognize him!”
Qiao Yin looked at the patient’s face and sighed softly.
His face was badly damaged, full of uneven scars. It was hard to recognize his original appearance, he was extensively disfigured.
“There’s nothing we can do about it, we’ll just have to try our best to find his family. If necessary, we can get the police to do a nationwide DNA screening.”
The nurse was somewhat moved, “He really is lucky to have had you, Doctor Qiao, such a skilled doctor to revive him, and the Hospital Director to contact the media to help find his family. Maybe we can actually find them?”
“I hope we can find his family. Also, I hope his memory returns, that would make things easier.”
The nurse was pleasantly surprised, “His memory can return?”
“It’s possible. Even if he doesn’t completely remember everything, he may be able to recall deeply ingrained memories.”
“Oh, that would be wonderful!”
While the two were talking, the patient in room 517 suddenly spoke, “I feel like I … know you.”
Qiao Yin was taken aback and asked uncertainly, “You feel like you know me? Have you seen me before?”
The patient repeated, “Familiar…”
The nurse was also taken aback, “Doctor Qiao, does this person know you? Do you have any missing friends or relatives?”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Qiao Yin didn’t have many friends or relatives, she could count them all on two hands. None of them were missing!
She wished that some people would disappear from her life, but unfortunately, they never seemed to leave her alone.
After some thought, Qiao Yin said, “Perhaps he feels familiar with me because I’ve been doing acupuncture for him every day.”
Unable to think of any other reason, the nurse could only nod in agreement, “That’s possible. You have been doing acupuncture on him every day, so he would definitely feel close to you. Even though he has never seen you, he should be familiar with your presence and voice. Patient 517, is that right?”
Patient 517 just continued to stare blankly at Qiao Yin, showing no reaction, as if the person who said he thought she was familiar wasn’t him.
Looking at his bewildered appearance, the nurse sighed, “Just like a three-year-old who doesn’t understand anything. He probably was just blurting out nonsense when he said he recognized you, we can’t take it seriously.”
