Chapter 1292 - 1292 628 Hope for Surgery (First Update)

?Chapter 1292: 628 Hope for Surgery (First Update) Chapter 1292: 628 Hope for Surgery (First Update) The Duke was very quiet.

Gu Jiao wasn’t sure to what extent his consciousness had recovered—whether he could only vaguely respond to external stimuli or he could clearly discern external sounds.

In plain terms, she didn’t know if he understood what she was saying.

But Gu Jiao still treated him as a patient with complete self-awareness; she rolled up his sleeve, fully exposing the wound on his forearm.

“The wound isn’t long or deep, no need for stitches. I’ll clean it first, then apply some herbal ointment and that should do,” she said.

As she spoke, Gu Jiao used a disposable iodophor stick to wipe the blood around the wound, then opened her homemade herbal ointment, dipped a bit on it, and evenly spread it over his wound.

Dusk settled, and slanted rays from the setting sun struck outside the house.

The Duke’s breathing was very even; he didn’t move an inch during the entire process of applying the medicine.

“Done,” Gu Jiao withdrew the medicine bottle and the cotton swab, wrapping the swab in wax paper. She never discarded any used medical supplies carelessly but handled them with utmost caution.

Having saved the person and treated the wound, Gu Jiao planned to leave.

She took one last look at the man on the bed; his situation seemed indeed better than when they first met, his body at least wasn’t that cold anymore.

Gu Jiao reached out a finger, touched his forehead, and felt a slight perspiration.

She slightly lowered his cotton blanket and opened the window to ventilate. Only then did she turn to leave.

The Duke on the bed trembled as he raised his hand, as if trying to grasp something.

…

After leaving the Duke Residence, Gu Jiao visited several Medical Halls. This time she changed her strategy, not asking about the Operating Room but rather about her family member suffering from a severe heart condition and whether there was a cure. She also handed over the Traditional Chinese Medicine prescription she had written to the doctors.

Based on the prescription, the doctors could generally gauge the severity of the patient’s heart condition; experienced doctors all knew that medication alone couldn’t cure it.
