Chapter 133 Fear

No one knows how scared he was during the rescue.

Especially when he saw the knife pierce Su Wanwan with his own eyes, his heart almost stopped beating.

Seeing the blood splattering out, he had already decided to kill the man while fighting him.

Only at the last moment did Su Wanwan's cry of pain awaken his senses.

Afterwards, Su Wanwan was rushed to the emergency room, and blood even dripped down the stretcher, leaving shocking bloodstains on the floor.

He acted as if his soul had been detached, quietly handling everything.

He himself didn't know what would happen to him if something really happened to Su Wanwan.

Fortunately, she is still alive.

Although they were still in critical condition, at least the person survived, and both sets of parents breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Wanwan was still under anesthesia when she was taken directly to the ICU after the surgery.

Tonight is also a crucial time.

Seeing that Xie Yanning was still covered in blood, Gu Ruyi patted him gently with heartache and said, "Go back and change your clothes first. We're here, everything will be alright."

Xie Yanning raised her head, wiped her face, her eyes were bloodshot, and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, I'll be there in a bit."

Su Wanwan wouldn't want to see him like this.

Xie Yanning went to the bathroom. The hot water stung his hand, and he noticed several cuts on it. He glanced at his hand, rubbed it a few times, and the cuts reopened. A trickle of red blood flowed down with the water and eventually went down the drain.

I quickly rinsed myself off, opened the first-aid kit, and gave myself a quick bandage so it wouldn't look scary.

When he arrived at the hospital, both sets of parents were waiting outside the ICU.

He didn't try to persuade them.

Su Wanwan was not truly out of danger, and no one was in the mood to go back.

Through the glass wall, Su Wanwan was lying quietly on the hospital bed, her face still pale, with a bandage wrapped around her right chest.

In my memory, Su Wanwan was almost always energetic and radiant.

Ironically, the suspect, Yang Zhi, was also admitted to the ICU, just a few beds away.

Despite the pressure, Chai Jianming spoke with his team, saying that since the suspect was still unconscious, there was no need to rush Xie Yanning to assist in the investigation.

It won't run away anyway.

Yang Zhi's condition is also very serious; he has broken ribs and a traumatic brain injury. Whether he can wake up is up to fate.

As Xie Yanning's friend, he felt that such a person deserved to die, but as a people's police officer, the rules and regulations had their own necessity. Whether Xie Yanning was suspected of excessive self-defense still needed to be investigated. In fact, if he really died, it might be very troublesome, as excessive self-defense could also lead to criminal penalties.

According to the doctor, Su Wanwan will be considered to have passed the critical period only if she wakes up six hours after the anesthesia wears off.

They were all silently counting down the passing time.

Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, for Su Wanwan woke up.

She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, which seemed somewhat familiar.

So this is what the ICU looks like from this angle.

It's very cold.

The anesthesia had worn off, and the wound was still a little painful. She still had tubes inserted into her body and couldn't move. She had met her attending physician a few times before.

Seeing that she was awake, they checked her vital signs and, finding nothing wrong, breathed a sigh of relief.

As Su Wanwan regained consciousness, she was transferred to a regular ward.

Zhong Qian is a strong woman who rarely sheds tears, but seeing Su Wanwan like this, she cried countless tears. Now that Su Wanwan is awake, she didn't want to worry her, so she forced herself to wipe away her tears.

"How are you? Is anything bothering you?" Zhong Qian asked.

Su Wanwan was still not in good spirits. "Mom, I'm fine, you don't need to worry."

Looking at the weariness in my parents' eyes, I guessed they had been watching over me since yesterday.

Su Chengze was also watching from the side, and even though he was a grown man, his eyes turned red.

Su Wanwan said weakly, "Mom and Dad, I just need to rest now. You two go back and rest first." She even tried to joke, "Don't let me be fine while you collapse."

Gu Ruyi secretly wiped away her tears, "It's good that you're alright."

Xie Yuanqing comforted him from the side.

Xie Yanning said, "You guys go back and rest first. I can watch over her here."

Su Wanwan: "Mom and Dad, don't make me worry."

Only after she said that did both sets of parents agree to go back and rest for a while.

Zhong Qian and Su Chengze, in particular, have been waiting at the hospital ever since they got off the plane yesterday.

I'm exhausted after staying up for a whole day and night.

After seeing them off, Xie Yanning stayed in the ward with Su Wanwan.

He held Su Wanwan's hand and kissed it: "Rest well, I'll stay here with you."

Su Wanwan looked at his smile, which was more like a grimace, his eyes still bloodshot. She gently touched his face with her fingers. "Don't be like this, I'm fine. I can't bear to leave you all."

"I'm fine too, go to sleep," Xie Yanning said, tightening his grip on her hand.

Su Wanwan was really tired, and fell asleep after saying a few words.

Before falling asleep, she thought that Xie Yanning was probably the one she was most afraid of.

He watched as the knife pierced him with his own eyes.

She still remembers the terrified expression on Xie Yanning's face before she lost consciousness, and the almost fatal beating she gave the prisoner.

I don't know if anything will happen.

After Su Wan went to bed, Xie Yanning walked out of the ward and saw Shang Haoyan who had come to visit her.

Xie Yanning didn't deliberately mention that Su Wanwan had an accident.

But such a big incident happened at the hospital that it became a trending topic on social media that very day, although the names and faces of the people involved were blurred out.

Even if they couldn't tell, they knew that Su Wanwan worked at this hospital, so they immediately called her.

Xie Yanning handled all of it.

Su Wanwan needed rest most of the time, so she declined all offers.

As for Shang Haoyan, it was because of Jiang Zhaoyue.

Although he chose to give up on Su Wanwan, he had feelings for her in the past, and given the good relationship between their families, he felt it was only right and proper for him to come and see her.

If he wanted to come, Xie Yanning couldn't stop him.

Peering through the crack in the door, Shang Haoyan couldn't help but scold, "I told you to look at someone, and this is how you see them?"

Xie Yanning offered no explanation for the accusations.

He always felt that if he had been just two steps ahead, Su Wanwan wouldn't have suffered this undeserved disaster. In the end, it was all his fault; he hadn't protected her.

"She's asleep. Let's come see her again in a few days."

Shang Haoyan wasn't there to interrogate her; he asked rather irritably, "How is she doing now?"

"It's nothing serious, just need to rest for a while."

Su Wanwan is young, exercises regularly, has no bad habits, and has a good ability to recover.

In a few days, I will be able to get out of bed and walk around without any problems.

After Shang Haoyan left, Xie Yanning returned to the ward.

I sat by the bedside, quietly watching her.

Only now does he feel a huge weight lifted from his heart.

Xie Yanning took a few days off from school. Apart from necessary matters to attend to, she spent the rest of her time at the hospital with Su Wanwan.

When I got tired, I lay down on the other small bed in the ward that was being used as an extra bed.

Su Wanwan felt a pang of sympathy seeing such a tall man curled up on that small bed, and said to him, "I'm fine now, you can go home tonight."

Xie Yanning said, "It's okay, I won't be able to sleep anyway."
