Chapter 270: Those About Hate ①
Nie Qiu was pushed into the operating room, and everyone faced another long wait.
Li Kai sat on the ground outside the operating room, staring blankly at the light that read ‘Surgery in Progress’. Ye Haifei stood in the corridor in the distance, clutching his chest, which felt so sour and astringent it made it hard for him to breathe. He stumbled outwards.
When Ye Lian received a call from an old classmate working at the Provincial Second Hospital at four in the morning, she was completely stunned. Once she came to her senses, her first reaction was to shake awake the husband sleeping beside her.
Ye Lian’s husband was a chef at a large hotel. Usually, hotel chefs finished work around eight or nine o’clock, but the chef on duty had to wait until all customers who had finished dinner had left before they could clock out. Ye Lian’s husband was on duty last night, so he got off work very late, which was why Ye Lian’s phone call didn’t wake him.
Ye Lian woke her husband, throwing him the car key as she put on her clothes, “Xiao Fei is in trouble, let’s go to the hospital to pick him up.”
Her husband, groggy, got out of bed when he heard her words, rubbed his eyes, and followed Ye Lian out, putting on his shoes.
Ye Lian’s heart ached as she saw Ye Haifei squatting by the wall outside the hospital entrance. She stepped forward and gently placed her hand on Ye Haifei’s head, “Xiao Fei…”
Ye Haifei looked up, his mouth still full of blood, “Sis… I killed someone…”
Ye Lian’s heart trembled, and she crouched down, “Xiao Fei, don’t worry… You’re only sixteen now, no… you’re not even sixteen yet. Your sister knows a lawyer, don’t worry… it’s okay. The law stipulates that those under sixteen who commit murder are not criminally liable. Don’t worry.” She knew she doted on her younger brother a bit, but what could she do? Should she hit him or scold him now? Would that help? She only knew that he was her only family.
“Sis… I killed someone…” Ye Haifei’s eyes were lost as he looked at Ye Lian, “Sis, I killed someone…”
“Let’s go home, home… let’s talk about it at home, okay? Xiao Fei… okay?” Ye Lian no longer said ‘don’t worry’. Ye Haifei’s appearance frightened her.
“I… I killed the girl I like the most.” The tears that had been welling up in Ye Haifei’s eyes began to flow again. “Sis, I’m in discomfort.”
Ye Lian reached out and hugged Ye Haifei tightly, letting the tears of this helpless child soak her clothes. Since she was little, she had never seen her younger brother cry. Even when he got into fights and bled, even with a bloody head, he wouldn’t shed a single tear. He didn’t cry even when Dad left. From the beginning, she knew her younger brother was someone who bled but didn’t cry, but now… he was crying.
Her heart also felt a great discomfort.
Killing the girl he liked the most? Ye Lian remembered the girl Ye Haifei had said he wanted to pursue before. Was it that girl? What does it feel like to lose your beloved?
It wasn’t unheard of in medicine for a patient whose heart had stopped to come back to life, but it was indeed rare. If they truly managed to revive and save the patient, their hospital would usher in another peak! Fame, reputation, money, and wealth – doctors were no exception. Upon hearing the news, the directors of each department and the dean rushed to the hospital. The experts allowed into the operating room put on sterile gowns, sterile caps, and gloves, and all entered the operating room.
