Chapter 520: Don’t You Think That She Resembles a Celebrity?
At this time, it was already five o’clock in the morning. The sky was very clear and it was a bluish gray color as it was just slightly after dawn. There were rays of red sunlight as the sun started to rise.
After driving for a whole night, the black car had finally arrived in front of a dilapidated old building.
This was the military hospital. There were many trees in the yard and a few elderly patients and nurses who were on duty would walk pass them occasionally.
“Second Brother, you can go in first. I will not bother you until you have already understood the situation. I will wait for you in the car,” Jiang Yuning quickly said to Lu Jingzhi.
Lu Jingzhi straightened his coat before he pushed the car door open and stepped out of the car immediately. However, before getting out of the car, Lu Jingzhi quickly instructed Secretary Ho, “Go and buy some breakfast for the young mistress.”
“Okay, principal.”
“No, Secretary Ho. You should take a short nap. I will walk around and get some food myself,” Jiang Yuning replied immediately.
Both Secretary Ho and the driver were already very tired since they had taken turns driving all the way here last night. Therefore, Jiang Yuning felt that she should give them some time to rest.
“Alright then, young mistress. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.” After that, Secretary Ho pulled his coat tightly together as he leaned back against the passenger seat and closed his eyes.
At this time, Jiang Yuning opened the car door and got of the car before she put on a cap and looked at the old building before her. It was really a very shabby and old building.
Jiang Yuning could not help but sighed as she looked at the building. However, at this time, Jiang Yuning saw a young child who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, sobbing as he squatted down under the big tree.
Did he lose a relative?
Jiang Yuning walked over to the big tree before she sat down next to the child. At this time, Jiang Yuning did not say anything because she wanted to wait for the child to be done crying. However, the young boy suddenly raised his head and started cursing, “Bad hospital! This is a lousy hospital! There is no equipment that they can use to inspect the patient’s body at all. Sob. Sob. This is a lousy hospital!”
Jiang Yuning took a piece of tissue out from her bag before she handed it over to the young boy. “Are you worried about your relative? Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to your relative.”
“You don’t know anything at all. This is the worse military hospital that I have ever seen in my life. The man is already so badly injured. How can they possibly save him in this broken and run-down place?” the young boy replied in a sad and frustrated manner. “This is all my fault. This is all my fault. He got injured just because he was trying to save me.”
Jiang Yuning remained silent as she listened to the child because she did not know how to comfort him.
However, she agreed that the hospital was indeed in a very bad condition.
How would they be able to take care of the soldiers under this kind of conditions?
It was no wonder why Lu Jingzhi looked so gloomy throughout the entire journey. His friend was fighting for his life inside this building.
“Who can help us?”
The young boy continued crying in a helpless manner as a stream of tears flowed down his cheeks.
Jiang Yuning could only comfort him as she patted him gently on the shoulder. At this time, a few more cars drove past them and parked in front of the entrance of the hospital. There were also an ambulance accompanying the cars. Wasn’t this a rescue team?
“Young boy, look! The experts have already arrived.”
The young boy was overjoyed when he raised his head and saw the doctors and nurses who were dressed in white lab coats. “They are here! They are finally here! There is hope for him now.”
At this time, Jiang Yuning could not stop herself from guessing whether the man that the young boy was talking about, was actually Lu Jingzhi’s comrade?
The young boy quickly followed in the doctor’s footsteps as he ran into the hospital. Jiang Yuning took this opportunity to walk around the small town before she bought some breakfast and headed back to the hospital compound.
Secretary Ho was already awake when Jiang Yuning returned to the car but his eyes were still bloodshot.
“Young mistress, I am so sorry that you have to take care of me instead. I am sorry that you have to work even when you are supposed to be enjoying your vacation.”
“Since this is Second Brother’s itinerary, there is nothing much that I have to do anyway. I am not tired at all.”
Moreover, Jiang Yuning felt that Lu Jingzhi would love to have her by his side so that he would be able to see her whenever he wanted to.
“Hurry up and eat your breakfast. After that, you can go for a walk around this town. You will definitely feel better because this place is really beautiful.” After that, Jiang Yuning got out of the car because she saw that the hospital was conducting some volunteering activity at this time. Therefore, Jiang Yuning put on a set of volunteer clothes before she participated in the event without any hesitation at all.
The free clinic under the hospital was preparing to carry out some basic ENT examinations for the elderly at this time.
When two of the nurses saw Jiang Yuning running up and down to help them, they felt that she was a really hardworking and diligent person. However, the more they looked at her, the more they felt that something was not right.
“Don’t you think that she resembles a celebrity?”
“Yes. She really looks like the celebrity from <Desert Island Rescue>. Don’t you agree with me? But I don’t think that is possible…”
“Why don’t we ask her then?”
After that, one of the nurses with a rounder face quickly called out Jiang Yuning’s name.
“Yes?” Jiang Yuning replied as she subconsciously turned around.
“Ahh! She is really the celebrity that we were talking about!” the two nurses exclaimed as they approached Jiang Yuning. “Are you really Jiang Yuning?”
At this time, Jiang Yuning put down the stool in her hand as she made a hush gesture at the both of them.
“Can we take a picture with you and can you sign an autograph for us?”
“Yes, but you have to promise not to say anything to anyone else, okay?” Jiang Yuning replied in a gentle manner.
“Okay, we will not say anything at all!”
Both the nurses were very excited as they took some pictures with Jiang Yuning. After that, they also took some picture for Jiang Yuning doing the volunteering work from time to time.
She was a very popular celebrity but she was actually doing volunteer work at such a small town on top of the mountain. Moreover, she was offering to do all the hard and tedious physical work.
Jiang Yuning also took advantage of this opportunity to ask the two nurses about the condition of the military hospital. The both of them sighed and shook their heads before replying, “Even though it is a military hospital, the condition of this hospital is really in a terrible state. A soldier who was seriously injured was sent here last night but everyone was at a loss because no one knew what to do. Therefore, we had to send an expert over here by helicopter so that he could help to stabilize his condition but we do not know the situation right now.”
“There were also several patients who had been severely injured who died in the emergency room because they were nothing that we could do to save them.”
Jiang Yuning nodded after listening to their explanations.
Although the two nurses did not say anything, the other people also knew who Jiang Yuning was. However, they did not disturb her or cause any trouble for her at all.
Later at noon, Lu Jingzhi stepped out of the military hospital because he wanted to take a look at the little descendant. However, he did not step forward to bother her when he saw her surrounded with people as she was working as a volunteer helper at the moment.
When Jiang Yuning felt that someone was staring at her, she glanced in the direction of the outpatient building and found out that Lu Jingzhi was staring at her from afar.
Jiang Yuning knew that the situation had not gotten any better because Lu Jingzhi’s brows were still tightly knitted together.
At this time, Jiang Yuning mouthed the words, ‘I am okay’ to Lu Jingzhi before she continued chatting with the old auntie next to her about her condition.
Lu Jingzhi gradually relaxed a little as he looked as his woman.
No matter how many years had passed by, no matter how much Jiang Yuning had suffered in the past and no matter whether she was the daughter of a wealthy and prestigious family or a famous celebrity, Jiang Yuning had never changed…she was still a kind hearted and helpful person who would shine whether she performing on stage, or whether she was volunteering to help the public and the people in need.
How nice.
The medical experts came in, one after the other but it seemed as though there were really no optimistic view about Lu Jingzhi’s comrade’s situation. At the end of the day, the conclusion was still the same. They should send him back to the city using a helicopter because if they kept him in this military hospital, he would only be waiting for death.
However, the biggest problem at hand was how they would be able to move someone who was in such a critical condition?
Lu Jingzhi returned to the ward to look at his friend. He was still in a coma and he had tubes all over his body. This was really a crisis.
