"No more... I don't want it, I was wrong..." Shen Jin choked out intermittently, constantly trying to spit out the medicine in his mouth.
"Swallow it quickly," the man pat...
Chapter 116 Shen Jin is Rong Jin
If it were any other time, and Yan Yu remained calm, he would never have called Madam Rong, since she was already in poor health and naturally wouldn't donate blood for others.
But Yan Yu had no other choice. His chaotic mind prevented him from thinking too much, so when the name came to mind, he dialed her number immediately.
Madam Rong was lost in thought in her garden when she heard a servant rush over to inform her, and she then borrowed the phone from the servant.
She had lost a lot of weight during this time, and her face was a little pale. When she picked up her phone and saw the person on the screen, her eyes flickered slightly. She still remembered Yan Yu chasing Shen Jin at the banquet.
After that, both of them disappeared without a trace.
Madam Rong hesitated for a moment, then answered the phone, her voice soft as she said, "Hello?"
Even though another DNA sample circulated online, which was indeed the same as her son Rong Jin's, and according to the source of that DNA sample, it did not come from Shen Jin, the idea that Shen Jin could be Rong Jin was thus seemingly put to rest.
Madam Rong, however, did not think so. After all, she had given birth to the child and raised him for so many years. Even though he had not been by her side all these years, she had always missed him. So how could she have made a mistake?
After the call connected, Yan Yu heard the woman's soft voice on the other end of the line. He quickly suppressed his own near-breakdown and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Madam Rong..."
He didn't want to look too disheveled, and even at this moment he wanted to maintain his status as CEO Yan, but the thought that Madam Rong might refuse, and that Shen Jin might leave him forever...
If that's the case, what use are those empty titles and dignity now?
"President Yan?" Madam Rong said calmly, "I haven't heard from you since we met at the banquet. Why are you calling me now? What brings you here?"
She was eager to ask about Shen Jin, but her intuition told her that Yan Yu's sudden call at this time was unlikely to be anything good, so she reluctantly suppressed her words and decided to wait for him to speak.
“Madam Rong…” Yan Yu took a deep breath, watching the time tick by, the person in the operating room getting closer and closer to death. He dared not delay any longer, and lowered his voice, saying, “I want to beg you, please help me… save him…”
"...What?" Madam Rong was completely bewildered, not understanding what he was saying at all. However, she could tell that his tone was urgent and his voice was hoarse, as if he was about to cry. She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What happened? Explain yourself clearly."
She wasn't familiar with Yan Yu, but she was very concerned about Shen Jin, whom he had chased after back then. Madam Rong had investigated and found that the two met in City A, seemed to be lovers, and had even lived together for a period of time... This became a thorn in the side for many people who wanted to find Shen Jin.
So when she saw him so anxious and flustered, the first person Madam Rong thought of was Shen Jin, wondering if something might have happened to him, and her heart skipped a beat.
Her eyelids had been twitching all day, and she had a feeling that something bad was about to happen. Now, Yan Yu's phone call, which she couldn't quite put her finger on, was like a fuse that almost ignited all the worries in her heart.
“…Shen Jin, Shen Jin, he…” Yan Yu swayed unsteadily, his head spinning, almost collapsing. He could only slump into a chair beside him. “You know him, right? He showed up at Rong Lan’s banquet that day, and you were chasing after him, weren’t you? He’s now…he’s now…”
He worried that Madam Rong, being of noble birth, might be unwilling to condescend to help him, so he could only try to get Shen Jin to establish some kind of relationship with her first. Any kind of relationship would do, as long as she was willing to remember their past friendship and save him...
"Don't tell me anything else yet! Just tell me what happened? What's wrong with him? Where is he?" Madam Rong's tone was somewhat agitated and anxious. She naturally sensed that Yan Yu was trying to connect her to Shen Jin, and there must be some reason for it.
Yan Yu really wanted to explain what had happened to her concisely, but he just couldn't calm down. He bit his tongue and managed to utter a sentence: "...He...he's in the hospital, in the emergency room..."
Madam Rong's head exploded with a bang. Her already weak face turned even paler. She stood there, frozen in place, several possibilities flashing through her mind. She cried out, "He... what happened to him... is he alright?"
Madam Rong nearly fainted, because Yan Yu's words reminded her of the nightmares she had dreamt countless times, in which she saw Rong Jin covered in blood leaving her...
"Sir, sir!" Seeing that Yan Yu's condition was extremely bad, the nurse was afraid that he would waste time if he continued like this, so she hurriedly said, "Please hurry up!"
After the nurse's reminder, Yan Yu's face paled even more, but he dared not delay any longer. He said in a hoarse voice, "Shen Jin was in a car accident. His condition is very serious. He is currently lying in the emergency room, his life hanging in the balance. He has lost too much blood, and his blood type is rare, so I beg you to save him... Please give him a blood transfusion... I beg you..."
Madam Rong's pupils suddenly contracted, as if an answer was about to be revealed. Her eyes gradually reddened, as if she had grasped a possibility. Her voice trembled uncontrollably: "...What is his blood type?"
Yan Yu: "Rhnull blood type".
Madam Rong seemed to have been struck by lightning, and stood frozen in place.
Previously, everyone thought she was overthinking things. The dead can never come back to life. Even if Shen Jin reminded her of Rong Jin, he couldn't possibly be Rong Jin... She was just deceiving herself and refusing to accept the truth.
"Madam Rong? Madam Rong?" Yan Yu, not receiving a response, grew anxious. He lowered his voice again, pleading earnestly, "I beg you... this blood type is too rare, there's really none left right now, I..."
Madam Rong bit her tongue: "Stop talking nonsense! Where's the address?"
Yan Yu was slightly taken aback, a hint of joy flashing across his grief-stricken face, and he excitedly told her the hospital's address.
After hanging up the phone, Madam Rong put on her coat, called her driver immediately, and was eager to go to the hospital. Her anxious appearance made the servants at home think that something had happened to her, and they were all very worried.
"Madam, Madam! Please wait!" The butler quickly pulled her back. "Are you feeling unwell? We'll call the family doctor right away! You should lie down and rest! We..."
"I'm fine, I'll be right back after I go out for a bit." Madam Rong's attitude was firm, and no one could persuade her. She got into the car and insisted on leaving, and no one could stop her.
The housekeeper had no choice but to call Rong Lan and her father, who were not at home. Both of them changed their expressions after hearing the news and tried to stop her, but to no avail.
The housekeeper said, "After receiving Mr. Yan's call, he hurriedly said he was going to the hospital. He looked terrible, like he could be blown away by a gust of wind. I don't know what he was going to the hospital for!"
At this moment, Rong's father and Rong Lan were in the coastal area, quite close to the home of the person whose DNA matched the clue they were investigating. If it weren't for this phone call, they would have been able to meet the so-called "Rong Jin" immediately and find out whether he was real or fake.
But this unexpected phone call disrupted their plans, so they had to hurriedly turn back, as they were really worried.
Because they all knew that Shen Jin was with Yan Yu, and Yan Yu had called her, the reason she was so moved and anxious was probably because of Shen Jin... In order to avoid any accidents, they also rushed to the hospital.
At this moment, Madam Rong arrived at the hospital. Yan Yu hurriedly went out to greet her, but before he could even express his gratitude, Madam Rong interrupted him: "Quick! Quick! Take me to see him first!"
When Yan Yu called, he originally thought that Madam Rong would not agree so easily, but who knew that she would rush over in such a hurry, which made Yan Yu think more deeply about the relationship between the two of them.
But no matter what he thought, Shen Jin was just an orphan with no name or status, so how did he get involved with her?
When Yan Yu saw Madam Rong arrive at this moment, her face and expression seemed somewhat familiar, as if... she resembled Shen Jin...
This thought startled Yan Yu; his heart skipped a beat and sank slightly. The unrealistic things he had previously speculated about seemed to be on the verge of being revealed...
—Is the same as the ashes?
Is that... even possible?
“He’s in the emergency room right now… he…” Yan Yu recalled Shen Jin’s pool of blood and his deathly still appearance, and couldn’t help but change his words, “He’s too badly injured, I’m afraid his current state will frighten you…”
Unfortunately, Madam Rong wouldn't listen and insisted on going to take a look, otherwise she wouldn't be bleeding. Yan Yu had no choice but to let the doctor make an exception and go in for a look.
Just a quick glance was enough to make Madam Rong nearly faint. Yan Yu had to help her out, and only then did he realize that this esteemed lady was already in tears…
“…Madam Rong, please…” Yan Yu was a little unsure of what to say, so he pulled some tissues over to her.
The person, tears streaming down their face, grabbed Yan Yu's hand and choked out, "How could this happen... how could this happen... how... how did he become like this?"
Yan Yu lowered his head in shame, not daring to look into her eyes, and even less daring to say that it was because he was too selfish, wanting to keep Shen Jin by his side, that he had caused Shen Jin to try every means to escape, and that Shen Jin had ended up in a car accident while being chased by Shen Jin...
"Doctor! Quick! Test my blood!" Even as she cried, Madam Rong didn't forget the important matter, grabbing the doctor beside her. "Test my blood right now! See if I can donate to him! See if my blood matches his..."
