Chapter 099 Going to see her
"Really? Which hospital is she in? I want to see her!"
Shen Yi struggled to lift the blanket, and in his haste, he almost pulled out the IV needle from the back of his hand.
The light in his eyes was frighteningly bright, like a drowning person grabbing onto a piece of driftwood.
"Quick, call me a car! No, I'll go myself!"
Lin Wei quickly pressed him down:
"Mr. Shen, please don't move! The doctor said you just woke up and shouldn't engage in strenuous activity!"
"I'm fine!" Shen Yi shook off his hand, his voice filled with an undeniable urgency.
"How is Su Qiu? Is she badly injured? Will she suffer any lasting effects?"
A barrage of questions came crashing down on me, each word dripping with anxiety.
His breathing became rapid, his chest heaved violently, and fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
It trickled down her cheeks, dripping onto her hospital gown and leaving a small, dark stain.
Her face, which had been pale just moments before, was now flushed with an unnatural redness from excitement.
He gripped Lin Wei's arm tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force.
"Tell me quickly! Which hospital is she in? I have to see her!"
This frenzied energy was just like someone wanting to avenge Su Qiu, fiercely grabbing Su Qian's neck.
Lin Wei was in pain from his grip, but dared not try to persuade him again.
He looked at the bloodshot eyes in Shen Yi's eyes, and at the urgency that seemed to be bursting out of his eyes.
Suddenly I understood.
For Shen Yi, Su Qiu was someone whose life was tied to his.
"Zhao Family Private Hospital, Room 302." Lin Wei sighed and gave the address anyway.
"I'll send someone over to make arrangements first. You...you hold off for a bit while I go arrange a car."
"No need to make arrangements!" Shen Yi had already thrown off the blanket, his bare feet stepping on the cold floor, the IV tube stretched even longer.
"I'll go myself!"
He staggered for a moment before regaining his balance.
The wounds on my body were being pulled and were causing me pain.
But this pain was as light as a feather compared to the news that "Su Qiu is still alive".
He didn't bother to put on his coat, and he forgot that he had contemplated suicide because of Su Qiu's death.
At that moment, all he could think about was "Ward 302".
When he pushed open the ward door, he didn't even turn around to look at Lin Wei's hesitant expression.
My steps were unsteady yet firm, like a piece of iron drawn to a magnet, plunging headlong into the morning light outside.
The smell of disinfectant wafted through the corridor, but Shen Yi found it refreshing.
That's the smell of life, the smell of Su Qiu still being alive!
He's going to see her, right now.
Shen Yi had only taken a few steps out of the ward when he heard steady footsteps coming from around the corner of the corridor.
Looking up, I saw it was Black Wolf.
He was wearing a black jacket, stood tall and straight, and had little expression on his face, yet he exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay.
"President Shen," Black Wolf spoke first, his tone calm.
Shen Yi, as if grasping at a lifeline, hurried forward, his voice still tinged with urgency:
"Where is Su Qiu? Take me to see her."
"That's exactly what the boss intends to do, please." Black Wolf stepped aside to make way and gestured for him to proceed.
At this moment, Lin Wei also chased after them, holding Shen Yi's coat in his hand, panting as he shouted:
"Mr. Shen, your clothes!"
Shen Yi didn't stop, turned around and glanced at him, his tone leaving no room for argument: "You don't need to come!"
After saying that, he turned and followed the black wolf, his steps hurried.
Without turning his head, he acted as if everything behind him had become an insignificant background.
Lin Wei stood there, holding Shen Yi's slippers, watching the two figures walk further and further away, silently complaining to himself:
Seriously, Mr. Shen? You just woke up and you're already abandoning me like this?
I'm the one who's taking care of you!
Lin Wei shook his head helplessly, sighed, and turned to walk back.
Oh well, what can I do when the other party is Boss Su Qiu?
We can't fathom what the boss is thinking, so we just do as he says.
……
The car drove smoothly.
Shen Yi, however, was restless, his fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of his clothes.
My eyes were fixed on the fleeting street scenes outside the window, and waves of anxiety washed over me.
He turned his head to look at the black wolf beside him, his voice trembling:
"Mr. Qiu, Su Qiu... how badly is she injured?"
Black Wolf looked straight ahead, his tone steady: "It's quite heavy."
Shen Yi's heart sank, and he pressed, "Then... is she in pain?"
"Mr. Shen, don't worry, our people have been taking care of the boss." Black Wolf answered calmly.
Shen Yi's fingertips turned white as he asked again:
"Specifically...where are the injuries located?"
Black Wolf remained silent for a few seconds, then told the truth:
"He was shot eleven times, two of the bullets were very close to his heart, he almost died..."
He paused, then added, "There are also burns and numerous abrasions, and two broken ribs."
"Eleven shots..."
Shen Yi murmured the number repeatedly, as if he could already see Su Qiu covered in blood.
His heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, the pain almost making it hard for him to breathe.
That must hurt so much...
She almost died.
I almost didn't get to see her again.
Shen Yi closed his eyes, trying not to let the tears fall.
It's hard to imagine her lying weakly in a hospital bed.
Two ribs were broken, he was shot eleven times, and he had burns... Every word felt like a needle piercing his heart.
"How could this be..." His voice choked, and his eyes instantly reddened. "How could he be so badly injured..."
He raised his hand to cover his mouth, barely managing to hold back his tears.
Heartache, self-blame, lingering fear, anxiety...
A mix of emotions almost overwhelmed him.
He hated himself for not being by her side, hated himself for not being able to shield her from those harms.
Black Wolf glanced at him but said nothing more.
Some heartache cannot be soothed by words.
He could only calm down a little when he saw the person in person.
As the car pulled into the hospital parking lot, Shen Yi's movements as he opened the car door were trembling.
He knew that what he was about to see might be even more heartbreaking than he had imagined.
Several tall and imposing bodyguards stood guard at the entrance of ward 302.
When the white wolf saw the black wolf bringing Shen Yi over, it simply nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Then, he hurriedly pushed open the ward door and gestured for him to enter: "Boss, he should be awake by now."
Shen Yi's heart was pounding, and his legs felt like they were made of lead, making each step feel incredibly heavy.
The moment he pushed open the door, countless images flashed through Shen Yi's mind.
Su Qiu lay on the bed, covered in tubes, her face as pale as paper.
Or their bodies are wrapped in thick bandages, making even breathing difficult.
Or perhaps they are barely breathing, showing no signs of consciousness...
Those imagined vulnerable images almost suffocated him, his eyes stung, and something was about to burst forth.
But the scene in the ward was completely different from what he had expected.
Su Qiu leaned against the headboard, covered with a thin blanket. Her face was indeed a little pale, but she seemed to be in good spirits.
She was holding an apple in her hand and taking a big bite.
Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on her face, giving her a serene and gentle appearance.
