Chapter 525 "Why call me brother-in-law? Call me brother!"
Amidst the anticipation of hundreds of millions of Chinese football fans, news about Wang Xiucheng has finally been updated.
Shams and Woj have once again jointly released information.
After a joint examination by numerous experts at the New York Special Surgery Hospital, Wang Xiucheng's injuries were determined.
The bad news is that Wang Xiucheng's injury is indeed a torn meniscus in his left knee.
The good news is that Wang Xiucheng's injuries are better than expected, and the surgery will not have any impact on his future health.
Shams and Woj also mentioned that Wang Xiucheng's surgery will be performed by sports medicine expert Dr. Riley J. Williams and his team.
Chinese fans may not be familiar with this person, but in the American sports circle, Dr. Riley J is a well-known expert who has performed surgery on many players in various fields.
This news reassured many fans a little.
Finally, two days later, good news arrived.
Wang Xiucheng's surgery was very successful.
Woj and Shams, the mentor and student, still jointly released information, and conservatively gave a general recovery time of 3 to 6 months.
However, The Athletic's New York correspondent wrote that Wang Xiucheng would recover in a maximum of three months.
Of course, he only said "recovery," not "returning to competitive form."
Although three months is not a long time, it is too long for Chinese football fans.
It's already June, and Wang Xiucheng is certain that he won't be able to participate in the World Cup.
Chinese basketball seemed to have just seen a glimmer of hope, only to have it extinguished again!
However, that same evening, Jonathan Feigen, a reporter for the Houston Chronicle who was on vacation in New York and had a good relationship with Wang Xiucheng, surprisingly released a short video interview with Wang Xiucheng.
In this five-minute interview, Wang Xiucheng addressed his injury issues for the first time.
"I will definitely be back before the World Cup, wait for me."
Wang Xiucheng concluded by speaking to the camera in Mandarin.
……
New York, Presbyterian Hospital, a luxury ward.
Wang Xiucheng, whose leg was in a cast, lay on the bed with his mouth open.
Wang Xiucheng's mother put a segment of orange into Wang Xiucheng's mouth, and then asked with concern, "Are you really alright?"
"It's nothing," Wang Xiucheng said vaguely. "I know my body. I don't need three months. I'll be lively and energetic again in two months at most."
Although they knew their son was trying to comfort them, Wang Xiucheng's parents still felt much better.
"By the way, Mom and Dad, you shouldn't go back this time. Stay in New York and take care of your grandchildren."
Wang Xiucheng tilted his head and spat the orange seed in his mouth into the trash can next to him, and continued, "Reba's parents have been taking care of the child in New York for several months. Although they don't say it, I can tell that they are very uncomfortable here."
“That’s what we were thinking when we came here,” Wang Xiucheng’s mother nodded. “It’s time for them to go back to their country.”
“You should go back to the Stanway Building now. Let them fly back to China with Reba tonight,” Wang Xiucheng said.
The two nodded and stood up.
Ma Wei immediately stood up from the sofa, greeted Wang Xiucheng, and then left with Wang Xiucheng's parents.
During this period, Wang Xiucheng refused all his sisters' requests to come and visit him.
Even Jennie Kim was appeased by Wang Xiucheng and stayed in Los Angeles.
There was no other way; my parents were still alive. If these older sisters and my parents were to run into each other, I figured my other leg would be crippled too.
Only Dilraba returned to New York the day after Wang Xiusheng was injured.
After staying for several days, Wang Xiucheng finally got Reba to agree to return to China tonight.
Watching his parents and Ma Wei leave the room, Wang Xiucheng opened his mouth. Ma Xiaoxuan, who was next to him, picked up an orange and was about to put a segment in Wang Xiucheng's mouth when the door opened again.
As if a secret had been discovered, Ma Xiaoxuan immediately withdrew her hand and looked up.
When Ma Xiaoxuan saw that it was her younger brother, she was so angry that she almost threw the orange in his face.
Seeing his sister and Wang Xiucheng's expressions, Ma Wei chuckled, picked up the car keys from the table, and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, you two continue, I'll be leaving soon."
Wang Xiucheng frowned slightly upon hearing this: "What brother-in-law? How many times have I told you I'm not your brother-in-law? If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll beat you up."
Ma Wei shrank back, immediately took the key, opened the door, and left.
"You eat it yourself." For some reason, Ma Xiaoxuan, who had been fine just a moment ago, suddenly threw the orange to Wang Xiucheng.
Wang Xiucheng instinctively caught the orange with his hand, but instead of eating it, he suddenly cried out in pain.
Ma Xiaoxuan was startled and quickly came over to Wang Xiucheng's bedside, asking with concern, "What's wrong? Didn't you say it wouldn't hurt? Why does it still hurt? I'll go find a doctor."
Seeing Ma Xiaoxuan's concerned expression, Wang Xiucheng suddenly grabbed Ma Xiaoxuan's hand.
Ma Xiaoxuan was startled again and looked up at Wang Xiucheng, "What's wrong with you?"
"Sister Xuan, it hurts," Wang Xiucheng said pitifully.
"Wait a moment, I'll go find the doctor." With that, Ma Xiaoxuan stood up.
But Wang Xiucheng pulled Ma Xiaoxuan into his arms with a forceful movement, saying, "Just let me hug you for a bit."
At that moment, Ma Xiaoxuan suddenly felt her mind go blank.
Feeling Wang Xiucheng's warmth, Ma Xiaoxuan didn't know what to do!
"What's wrong with you?" Ma Xiaoxuan asked with some concern after leaving Wang Xiucheng for more than a minute.
Wang Xiucheng seems a little different today.
"It's nothing." Wang Xiucheng seemed to shake his head, looking worried. "This injury made me realize how fragile people are."
Ma Xiaoxuan frowned even more deeply. How could Wang Xiucheng say something so old-fashioned?
"When I was injured and fell to the ground, do you know who was the first person I thought of?" Wang Xiucheng seemed to be lost in memories.
"Your parents?" Ma Xiaoxuan asked tentatively.
Wang Xiucheng nodded. "I thought of my parents and my sister. I think they would be very sad if I died."
Upon hearing Wang Xiucheng mention the word "death," Ma Xiaoxuan instinctively covered Wang Xiucheng's mouth with her hand.
"You're not allowed to say that word," Ma Xiaoxuan said angrily.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiucheng grabbed Ma Xiaoxuan's hand again.
Then I thought of you.
"I?"
“Yes.” Wang Xiucheng nodded: “I think if I… I’m gone, then you might never know that I liked you when I first came to the United States to attend high school.”
Hearing Wang Xiucheng's sudden confession, Ma Xiaoxuan blushed slightly and said in a voice barely above a whisper, "I know."
"You know? Impossible. I only told Ma Wei about this." Wang Xiucheng immediately shook his head, seemingly not believing Ma Xiaoxuan's words.
The next moment, Wang Xiucheng suddenly realized: "It was Ma Wei who said it."
Ma Xiaoxuan nodded.
Perhaps because Wang Xiu was injured, the two of them started chatting quietly.
“I even told Ma Wei that I wanted to be your brother-in-law in the future.” Wang Xiucheng chuckled. “He said I was dreaming, haha.”
Ma Xiaoxuan laughed and peeled the orange for Wang Xiucheng again.
Wang Xiucheng opened his mouth again and waited, so Ma Xiaoxuan could only put another piece in his mouth.
But Wang Xiucheng pulled Ma Xiaoxuan back again, saying, "My legs really hurt a bit."
"What should we do then?" Ma Xiaoxuan looked at Wang Xiucheng, who seemed genuinely distressed.
"A hug will do," Wang Xiucheng said shamelessly again.
Ma Xiaoxuan was stunned for a moment, but in the end she still hugged Wang Xiucheng.
However, Wang Xiucheng's actions were anything but honest...
Ma Xiaoxuan quickly left Wang Xiucheng. Just as she was about to stand up, Wang Xiucheng cried out "Ouch!" again.
"Sister Xuan, my leg hurts a little," Wang Xiucheng said again.
Ma Xiaoxuan frowned slightly. She didn't know if Wang Xiucheng did it on purpose, but she was really worried. So, despite Wang Xiucheng's objections, she called the doctor over.
The three doctors gave Wang Xiucheng a thorough examination, and then spoke to Ma Xiaoxuan.
"His surgery was successful, but it's impossible for someone with such a serious injury to be completely painless. He also refused to take too much medication, so the best approach was to distract him."
"How should we disperse?" Ma Xiaoxuan asked.
"Talk to him, let him watch TV, play games, play on his phone, read books, anything is fine. Do you need to teach him?" the doctor said.
Ma Xiaoxuan nodded slightly, and after seeing the doctor off, she took out the game console that Ma Wei had brought.
But Wang Xiucheng didn't even look at the game console.
Ma Xiaoxuan turned the TV back on, and Wang Xiucheng kept his eyes tightly closed, seemingly annoyed.
Left with no other choice, Ma Xiaoxuan turned off the TV again.
She took out her phone, wanting to show Wang Xiucheng some videos, but Wang Xiucheng kept his eyes closed.
Ma Xiaoxuan even noticed a bead of sweat on Wang Xiucheng's forehead.
"Are you... really in pain?" Ma Xiaoxuan asked with concern.
Wang Xiucheng nodded, "If I hold you, the pain will go away."
Ma Xiaoxuan sighed: "Then you'd better keep your hands to yourself..."
"it is good."
Three minutes later.
"Didn't you say to behave yourself?"
"I can't control it either..."
"Then I'm leaving..."
"My legs hurt!"
"Okay, okay, I won't leave..."
