She was surprised by what she saw—Bai Wu’s chest was charred, his burnt clothes were drenched in his blood. When she got closer, she caught a whiff of roast meat.
“What’s going on? Uncle Xu, what happened to Bai Wu?” Surprised by how severely injured Bai Wu was, Xiao Xiao asked with slight displeasure.
“It’s a long story. Hurry up and get us an ambulance!” Xu Lan was worried sick about Bai Wu. After all, Bai Wu had never sustained such serious injuries ever since Xu Lan rescued him!
Once again, Xu Lan set foot in the city hospital at Whitehorse City. The doctor at the emergency department was still the same young and handsome doctor, while Bai Wu remained as the patient. The only difference was, Bai Wu was a grown man and the doctor did not look at him with disdain.
“What’s going on?” Xiao Xiao paced back and forth in the corridor, she seemed more anxious than Xu Lan who was seated on the bench.
“Stop walking around, would you? My head hurts from watching you do that,” complained Xu Lan, who was occasionally glancing at the elegant black cat seated next to him.
“Are you kidding me? You’re still in the mood to play with the cat? Seeing how Bai Wu is severely injured but you escaped unscathed, I’m guessing that he took all the damage for you again. Uncle Xu, I don’t understand this. Is your heart really made of iron?”
To Xiao Xiao, the way Xu Lan looked at the cat suggested that he was nonchalant about Bai Wu’s predicament. Xiao Xiao noticed something was wrong with Bai Wu back when she was taking his photos. After ditching her boyfriend to visit Bai Wu, she found out that Bai Wu was living in repression all this while. Xiao Xiao could not help but lash out at Xu Lan.
Xu Lan stood up and shouted at Xiao Xiao. “Heck! What do you want me to do? Rush in and monitor the doctor as he operates on Bai Wu? What makes you think that... Sigh, forget about it. There’s no point for me to bother myself with a kid like you...” He massaged his temple and sat down again.
Xiao Xiao was surprised by Xu Lan’s reaction. She finally calmed down and took a seat quietly.
Xu Lan was aware of his sweaty palms and tensed muscles. Still, no one was out yet. After a long time, the lights in the operating room finally went off.
“Doctor? How, how’s he doing?” Xu Lan rushed forward and asked the doctor worriedly.
“Phew, he’s fine. Just make sure that he’s well rested,” the doctor elaborated slowly after taking off his mask.
“That’s great, that’s great. Thank you, doctor.” Xu Lan felt the load being taken off his mind and trailed after the stretcher. As Xu Lan followed Bai Wu back to his ward, he noticed how pale Bai Wu’s lips were. With a thick layer of gauze wrapped around his chest, Bai Wu smiled cheerfully at Xu Lan.
“Heck, only someone like you can smile after everything that happened. What happened to your vigor!”
Xu Lan was angered by Bai Wu’s silliness. Xu Lan knew that Bai Wu was holding back on Qiao Yi, but his act of injuring himself to gain the enemy’s confidence was unnecessarily convincing! Bai Wu used to be a crybaby who wailed whenever Xu Lan was slightly mean to him; yet, at that moment he was merely chuckling like a silly boy.
“Did everyone get out?” Bai Wu looked around and did not see anyone but Ka Daiwen, who was seated unwillingly on Xu Lan’s shoulder.
“Excuse me, excuse!” Before Xu Lan could respond, the nurses brought another stretcher over hurriedly.
Xu Lan immediately made way and moved toward Bai Wu’s stretcher. Unfortunately, he did not move in time and ended up bumping into an anxious man.
“Sorry.”
“Meng Chengjun?”
