On that day, Fu Hengyi slammed Mu Liancheng hard aside. The bullet, which originally should have been shot into Mu Liancheng’s chest, as shot into Fu Hengyi’s body instead. Although the criminals were finally all captured in the end and the hostages were also rescued, Fu Hengyi was still undergoing treatment at present.
The bullet was too close to Fu Hengyi’s heart. The local hospital simply did not have the capability to handle this kind of surgery, so they could only stop the bleeding and send Fu Hengyi overnight to the nearest hospital.
But because of the delay in treatment time, even the experts also dared not be certain that the operation would definitely be successful. Moreover, once the operation was not successful, then Fu Hengyi ……
After a group discussion, the people decided to make a call to inform Fu Hengyi’s family. But the call was not received by Grandpa Fu. Instead, it was received by a person who claimed to be Fu Hengyi’s wife. Only then they found out that Fu Hengyi was married.
Shen Qinglan received the phone call and found an excuse to leave the Fu family’s house to rush over. As the Fu family’s only grandson, for this kind of mishap to happen to Fu Hengyi, it could only be imagined what a blow it would be to Grandpa Fu. Consequently, for the sake of the old man’s health, Shen Qinglan did not tell him for the time being.
She also did not think that just in case Fu Hengyi could not make it, how Grandpa Fu was going to cope if he did not see his grandson for one last time.
In Shen Qinglan’s view, a man like Fu Hengyi would not die so easily. It was her trust in him.
Mu Liancheng and the other people were also in disbelief when they saw the person who came to the hospital. It was because Shen Qinglan was too young. However, very soon Shen Qinglan’s first words made them confirm this was indeed Fu Hengyi’s wife.
“How’s Fu Hengyi?” Shen Qinglan knew exactly who they were without even checking their identities.
“And you are?” It was Monkey who spoke.
“I’m Shen Qinglan, Fu Hengyi’s…wife.”
“Brother Fu is still inside, undergoing emergency treatment. The doctor says the bullet is too close to the heart. Moreover, he has missed the golden hour of rescue treatment, so the risk of surgery is very great. Brother Fu may…..” Mu Liancheng spoke in a heavy voice with an agonized tone.
“How did he get injured?” Shen Qinglan asked.
The group of people fell silent. In the end, it was Mu Liancheng who spoke up to explain how it had happened to Shen Qinglan.
“Missus, I’m sorry,” Mu Liancheng apologized once again. Shen Qinglan was magnanimous in not blaming him. But he still owed an apology. If it had not been for his carelessness and relaxed vigilance, Fu Hengyi would not have met with a mishap.
“I’ve already said that I don’t blame any of you. You don’t have to apologize to me.”
Silence fell again in the corridor. The group of people stared silently at the operating room door.
Shen Qinglan half-leaned against the wall. Her face looked calm. There was no hint of panic at all. But she slightly clenched her hands, which revealed her inner concern.
After an unknown amount of time, the operating room’s light finally went out. The door, which had been closed for more than ten hours finally opened. A doctor, wearing a white coat walked out.
“Who is Fu Hengyi’s family?”
Shen Qinglan got up and answered, “I am.”
“The surgery was successful. He’s out of danger. But the patient has lost too much blood and is still in a coma. He will only wake up in two days’ time.”
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief with those words, especially Mu Liancheng. With reddened eyes, he immediately cried when he heard the doctor’s words.
Fortunately, and thankfully that Fu Hengyi was all right. Otherwise he would not be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.
Shen Qinglan could perhaps be considered the calmest on the scene. Any expression akin to panic and worry also did not appear on her face from the beginning to end worry, which caused the people present to somewhat doubt whether she was really Fu Hengyi’s wife.
If the people who were familiar with Shen Qinglan were here, they would know. It was not that she was not worried, but just that she did not show it. She was already used to hiding her true feelings.
Fu Hengyi was wheeled out and Shen Qinglan followed behind him to enter the ward.
Fu Hengyi was staying in the first class ward. He laid quietly in bed, with both eyes closed. Due to the excessive blood loss, his face did not have the slightest bit of color.
Shen Qinglan had never seen such a frail Fu Hengyi. She sat by the bed and quietly watched him. She saw that his breathing was even and the indicators on the instrument was normal. Only then she gradually felt more at ease.
At this time, Shen Qinglan picked up her cell phone to call Grandpa Fu, explaining Fu Hengyi’s condition.
“Grandpa, I’m sorry to have hid this from you before,” Shen Qinglan apologized. She really did not handle it well in this regard, but she did not regret it.
Grandpa Fu was silent for a moment before he spoke, “I don’t blame you for this matter. How is he now?”
“The doctor said that he’s out of danger and will wake up after two days. But the bullet was too close to the heart. Even though the operation was successful, his body took a bad hit and he needs to rest for a period of time so as not to repercussions later.”
“I see,” Grandpa Fu said, calmer than Shen Qinglan had imagined him to be, “Wait for Hengyi to wake up and we will transfer him to the Capital. It’s also easier to take care of him.”
“I also have the same idea, Grandpa. You can rest assured that I will take good care of him.”
“Well, girl, you have to take care of your own body too.” Grandpa Fu did not forget to remind her.
Shen Qinglan looked at the crowd standing at the door of the ward, wanting to enter but dare not come in. She opened her mouth and said, “I have already made a phone call to home. After he wakes up, he will be transferred to a hospital in the Capital. You all just go back first. I’ll be here.”
Mu Liancheng looked intently at Shen Qinglan and said, “Missus, I want to wait until Brother Fu wakes up before leaving.”
“Me too.”
“I do too.” The other people simultaneously echoed the same words.
They could not really feel at ease without seeing Fu Hengyi wake up with their own eyes.
Shen Qinglan took a look at them and said, “As you wish.”
Fu Hengyi woke up a day later. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Qinglan reclining in front of the hospital bed with her eyes closed in sleep. But she seemed to sleep fitfully with her shapely eyebrows tightly knitted.
Fu Hengyi had wanted to move when he discovered Shen Qinglan was holding his hand. He stared blankly for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth raised into a good-looking arc.
Shen Qinglan suddenly opened her eyes and immediately met Fu Hengyi’s gentle gaze looking at her. She started and instantly responded, “You’re awake. Where are you not feeling comfortable?”
Fu Hengyi gently shook his head and looked at Shen Qinglan’s obvious dark circles underneath her eyes. A wave of apology surged in his heart and he said, “I’m sorry to have let you worry. Such a situation will not happen again in the future.”
He did not anticipate that such a matter would happen this time. He had acted at the time out of instinctive reaction. Looking at Shen Qinglan at this moment, he realized that he was no longer alone. He also had a wife, a person whom he wanted to take good care of and cherish.
