“Nothing is wrong, I’m alright. Let’s go to the hospital.” Old Master Lu said as continued walking forward. Since he wanted to go to the hospital, the security guard did not dilly-dally and swiftly helped Old Master Lu to the entrance before driving the car over. Somehow, Old Master Lu’s heart felt uncomfortable. Perhaps, it was because he was worried, or it was due to something else. Anyway, his face was as pale as a ghost.
Old Master Lu’s body continued trembling even after he entered the car.
“Lu Qin, that rascal, that rascal,” Old Master Lu could not stop babbling to himself. Then, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Yan Huan who was sitting next to him, asking, “How much of a failure do you think I am to have brought up a good-for-nothing son like Lu Qin? He won’t even save his own brother. Not some random stranger, but his very own brother.”
Yan Huan’s heart jumped slightly. What did… he mean by that?
Who was Lu Qin’s big brother?
Lu Qin.
Lu Yi…
Would there be someone else apart from Lu Yi? However, what is wrong with him?
She used one hand to tightly grip the corner of her shirt, then patted herself all over. To her surprise, she had forgotten to bring her cell phone while hurrying here. She dared not ask Old Master Lu anything, so all she could do hold it in the entire journey. Luckily, they made it to the hospital in no time.
Old Master Lu slowly walked forward. However, he was already very old and his legs were not as strong. He looked like he would fall down at any moment.
“Father!”
“Father…”
Suddenly, Ye Shuyun called out to Old Master Lu when she saw him. Before Yan Huan could react, He Yibin had already pulled her aside.
As Yan Huan was about to ask him something, He Yibin pulled her to the emergency room, saying, “Don’t say anything now. Lu Yi has lost too much blood, he needs you to save his life.”
Yan Huan woodenly stared at him.
Her ruby red lips softly moved as blood instantly drained from her face. Then, she slowly nodded.
He Yibin felt relieved. His eyes were burning and he was about to tear up. Although there was nothing shameful about a man crying, this was not the time to cry.
“Father, don’t worry, everything’s alright.” When Lu Jin saw the state that Old Master Lu was in, he quickly went over to support him. His nose was runny and his throat felt tight as well.
“Luckily, you brought Huanhuan here. Don’t worry, Huanhuan and Lu Yi have the same blood type. Lu Yi’s going to be alright, everything will be alright.”
“Is that right?” Old Master Lu let out a long-drawn breath, and this exchange of breath gave him back some strength. Then, his breathing calmed down and became easier with each breath.
“That’s right Father, everything is alright.” Lu Jin wanted to help Old Master Lu sit down, He was afraid that something would happen to Old Master Lu before Lu Yi’s problem was resolved. Then, the Lu family would have mishaps one after another. He was already extremely anxious now.
Just as Old Master Lu’s sat on the chair, he immediately jumped up again.
“Bring me to Lu Qin. That ingrate, such an ungrateful scoundrel. I’m going to beat him to death today.”
Lu Qin’s name filled Lu Jin with intense hatred and disgust. How could the Lu family have such a son? Perhaps, the apple did not fall far from the tree? Lu Jin was not a decent person in the past. Hence, the son he fathered was just like him, merciless and heartless, even to his blood relatives. That was his brother, his own blood brother… Even his aunt has knelt down to beg him, how could he really still refuse to help?
Lu Jin helped Old Master Lu to walk over, but as they opened the door, they saw that there was no one inside. The nurse said that both patients had left, complaining that their doctor was too rowdy. They took the blood with them, wanting to continue the transfusion at home.
Hearing this, Old Master Lu almost choked with anger. His chest felt tight as he coughed endlessly.
Outside the emergency room, Madam Lei was helping Ye Shuyun sit down. Then, she patted her hand and comforted her, saying, “Everything will be alright, don’t be scared. Lu Yi will be fine.”
Ye Shuyun slowly turned her face to the side and looked at Madam Lei.
“Is he really alright?”
“That’s right.” Madam Lei let out a sigh of relief, replying, “The heavens are still on Lu Yi’s side. Do you remember? Not even the floodwaters can take him away. It will be the same this time. He will improve and recover.”
Ye Shuyun hugged Madam Lei, muffling her cries. Previously, no tears would even if she wanted to.
Meanwhile, in the emergency room, Yan Huan placed her forearm on the table as a large syringe was already drawing her blood slowly. It channeled into an empty blood bag before ultimately transfused into Lu Yi’s body.
She turned her face away, as she did not want to witness this. She had to force herself to endure that excruciating heartache and stop her tears from pouring.
“Is it uncomfortable?” The nurse walked over and carefully asked, “500cc of blood has already been withdrawn, it’s normal to feel a little uncomfortable.”
“I’m still okay.” Yan Huan was not uncomfortable because of this, but the circumstances that the two of them had to meet in.
“How much more does he need?” she asked again, without thinking too much of it. If he needed more, they could continue drawing her blood.
“We might need another 500cc,” The nurse looked at what was going on and asked, “But, are you sure you’re alright?” She was worried about both her patients Lu Yi and Yan Huan. Usually, not more than 500cc of blood should be drawn from a person.
“It’s alright.” Yan Huan could feel her forearm and her entire body slowly grew cold. This blood was not only taking away her vitality, but also her body temperature.
“I have donated more than 1000cc of blood before, I know where my limit is I also know that it’s a matter of urgency to save him.”
She knew her body well. Now, she was glad that Old Master Lu had been feeding her like a pig before this, giving her supplements here and there. She leisurely lay down daily, so her weight and health had drastically improved. Otherwise, she could not donate any blood as she would be underweight.
The nurse felt relieved when she heard this. She was afraid that after Yan Huan would stop after donating some blood. As this was a very crucial moment for the patient, the patient might die on the surgery table if there was not enough blood.
“We’ve reached 1000cc already.” The nurse quickly entered the operations room and yelled, “Dr. He, we’ve already gotten 1000cc!”
“Continue to draw more.” He Yibin was busy with surgery and could not afford to be distracted.
“But Dr. He, if we continue to draw blood, the person outside will be hurt.”
The person outside? He Yibin suddenly lifted his head. Damn it! How could he have forgotten this? They were not using prepared blood but the blood that was being drawn directly from a human body. 1000cc was almost a human’s limit and if they continued, it would cost her life.
“Dr. He, what should we do?” the nurse continued to ask.
At this moment, He Yibin’s forehead was beaded with sweat. He had never encountered such a tricky situation.
