Chapter 102: Can’t Be Concealed

Xiao Sa looked at Xiao Jing, who continued, “You were too seriously wounded. The doctors in the hospital couldn’t save you. It was Rourou who operated on you. Surgical professors may need a whole day to complete this kind of operation, but Rourou only used an hour and twenty-five minutes to complete it and save you.”

“But after Rourou announced that you were safe, she fell into a coma and has yet to wake up,” Xiao Sa said.

Xiao Yao frowned and took a deep breath. Recalling the scene of the girl falling from the sky, he clenched his hands hard and asked in a deep voice, “What did the doctor say?”

His sister was a fairy, and she was going to be fine. Since she could fall out of the sky to save him, she would keep herself safe just to spare them from worry.

Xiao Sa shook his head and replied, “The doctor couldn’t find anything wrong with Rourou. He just said that Rourou wasn’t brain dead, but... he also said Rourou’s body is failing... though he didn’t know which part of her body was failing.”

Xiao Yao frowned again. “Have you told Mom and Dad about this?”

Xiao Jing shook his head. “No, I don’t dare. I don’t dare tell them about you, and neither do I dare tell them about Rourou. I just told them that Rourou will be staying at a classmate’s house for several days because of what happened in these two days, but this morning I found that Mom and Dad aren’t buying it anymore.”

( Boxno vel. co m ) Fortunately, Mom and Dad didn’t ask him about Yao... they only complained that he never called home when he was out.

“Help me up.” Xiao Yao tried to stand.

Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa hurriedly held Xiao Yao up from either side. Xiao Sa asked, “Yao, where are you going?”

Xiao Yao frowned and asked, “Where’s Rourou?”

“Next door,” Xiao Jing answered. “There are no other patients on this floor for our convenience, and Rourou is right next door to you.”

Xiao Yao nodded. “Take me there. I want to see her.”

His wounds ached badly, and he was in a cold sweat from getting himself up just now. Since there were two men at his service, he could ‘use’ them and save his energy.

Xiao Yao arrived at Tang Xi’s ward with the help of two brothers. When he saw the pale yet still beautiful girl in the sickbed, his heart ached. Was it because she had exhausted her strength to save him that she became like this?

She said she was a fairy, but she had never shown her abilities in front of them. However, that day, she suddenly appeared to save him...

Rourou, please wake up, or how can I allow myself to live otherwise? You sacrificed yourself to save me. Even if I continued to live on, I would live in pain and sorrow for the rest of my life, you know?

Xiao Yao was in a cold sweat when he went back to his ward. Xiao Jing hurriedly called over a doctor to give Xiao Yao a painkilling injection, but the latter raised his hand to stop the doctor from doing so as he could only forget his mental pain with his physical pain. Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing couldn’t change his mind and could only let the doctor leave. Xiao Jing said, “Yao, why are you so harsh to yourself?”

Xiao Sa chimed in, “Yeah, Yao, Rourou wouldn’t want to see you like this. You have to recover soon, for Rourou’s sake too.”

Xiao Yao ignored them and said, “Give me my phone.”

Xiao Sa immediately looked at him on the alert. “What are you going to do?”

Xiao Jing gave the phone to Xiao Yao and Xiao Sa shouted loudly, “Xiao Jing, you traitor, we’ve been keeping this from Mom and Dad for so many days. If Yao calls them now, they’ll beat us to death!”

“Shut up!” While injured, Xiao Yao was still domineering; Xiao Sa quickly shut up. Xiao Yao called his superior. After the other side picked up the phone, Xiao Yao reported what had happened. The superior asked something, to which Xiao Yao answered, “Yes, Kloss was shot on the spot.

“I’ll recover as soon as possible and report to you when I leave the hospital.” The other side then followed up with another question. Xiao Yao frowned but still answered, “Lin’an Hospital of City A!”

He hung up the phone and turned around, only to see the eyes of his two brothers burning with curiosity. He asked coldly, “If you want to ask me something, ask me when I’m done.”

The brothers nodded. Xiao Yao took a look at them before making another call. He briefly spoke a few words and told the other party to come to Lin’an Hospital. As soon as Xiao Yao hung up, the two brothers asked, “Yao, is what Rourou said true? Are you really the captain of a special division of the Special Forces?”

Xiao Yao nodded and said, “Don’t tell anyone about it, okay?”

The brothers nodded with shining eyes, and then they asked, “But when did you join the army? You didn’t have time for training or anything... You’d have to be trained and screened to get into that department, right? Besides, you’re already a major.”

“Lieutenant colonel,” Xiao Yao corrected flatly. “After this matter, I think I’ll be a lieutenant colonel.”

In fact, he had already been qualified to be a lieutenant colonel long ago but had simply lacked an opportunity to become one. Besides, his promotion was too quick to look fair. However, the mission this time was very important and he had managed to kill Kloss, which was a great merit...

Thinking of his fallen teammates, Xiao Yao looked sad as he said coldly, “Okay, call Mom and Dad and tell them that I’m in the hospital because of a car accident. Xixi accidentally fell down the stairs and injured her head when she came to visit me.”

Xiao Sa smirked. “Yao, do you think Mom and Dad will believe this?”

Xiao Yao also felt that this story was too far-fetched. At that moment, Xiao Jing’s cell phone rang. Xiao Jing took out the phone and had a took at the screen, after which he immediately threw it to the sickbed nervously. “Oh, sh*t, speak of the devil!”

Xiao Yao glanced at Xiao Sa and gestured at him to hand over the phone to him. Xiao Sa obediently picked it up and handed it to Xiao Yao, and the latter answered the call. “Mom...”

Yang Jingxian and Xiao Hongli had arrived at the hospital almost at the same time. Seeing Xiao Yao lying in the bed, they were very worried, especially Xiao Hongli. Finding his son so badly hurt and seeing that his injuries were clearly gunshot wounds, he scowled and said, “You’d better give me a good reason, or else you and your brothers will never be able to step out of the house from now on!”

Yang Jingxian was worried about Xiao Rou, so instead of continuing to ask about Xiao Yao’s injury, she looked around the ward and asked softly, “Where is Rourou? Didn’t Sa say she’s also in the hospital? She hasn’t been home for the last few days. Was she here taking care of Yao?”
