Chapter 58 Xia Ningxi Faints

The Yu family members arrived at the hospital in twos and threes. They were all furious after hearing about the incident, but Huo Nanxiao was standing right there, so no one dared to cause trouble in front of him.

This is, after all, the Huo family's hospital.

However, they couldn't bring themselves to believe Xia Ningxi.

The lights in the emergency room were flashing.

Time is slowly passing by...

One hour, two hours, three hours...

Six hours have passed, and still no one has come out.

The Yu family members were all devastated during this long wait, and Madam Yu even fainted twice from crying.

Everyone waited patiently, and even the dean rushed over.

Upon seeing Yang Yue'an arrive late, the hospital director asked, "Why weren't you the one performing the surgery?"

"I just went out this afternoon," Yang Yuean replied truthfully.

The hospital director was so anxious he kept stamping his feet: "Dr. Xia is inside, is she capable of this surgery?"

Yang Yuean was also worried, but he was calmer than anyone else. He said, "Wait a little longer, give her some more time. Six hours is not the limit. Last time when we were abroad, we encountered a patient with a more difficult condition. We rescued her for twelve hours. Since Dr. Xia has not come out yet, it means there is still hope."

When Yang Yuean said this, everyone looked at him.

Huo Nanxiao was also surprised. In just a few years, Xia Ningxi had grown into such an excellent doctor.

Huo Nanxiao's mind was filled with mixed emotions.

Everyone in the hospital was waiting for the outcome of this surgery.

Xia Ningxi stood on the operating table, her forehead covered in sweat.

Her assistant, worried that sweat might get into Xia Ningxi's eyes and obstruct her vision, kept wiping it away for her.

She was completely focused, her eyes fixed on the operating table. Although her hand was injured, it did not tremble at all when she picked up the scalpel. She held the scalpel more steadily than anyone else!

No mistakes allowed!

This was the only thought in Xia Ningxi's mind.

As long as she doesn't make any mistakes, this surgery has a chance of being successful!

The assistants beside him dared not utter a sound; they were more nervous than anyone else.

The surgery lasted a full eight hours! The moment the stitches were finished and the patient's vital signs returned to normal, Xia Ningxi finally collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

"Dr. Xia!" the assistant shouted excitedly.

Seeing this, Zhao Qian rushed over and hugged Xia Ningxi tightly, only to find that she had already fainted.

Zhao Qian quickly carried Xia Ningxi out of the operating room.

The moment the door opened, everyone in the Yu family looked over.

Mrs. Yu rushed forward anxiously, about to ask what had happened to her beloved son, when she saw Xia Ningxi being carried out. Her voice trembled as she asked, "What happened? Why did she faint? Where's my son? Where's my precious son!"

"Young Master Yu's surgery was a success." After saying that, Zhao Qian said to Yang Yue'an, "Dr. Xia fainted from exhaustion."

"I'll take her back." Yang Yue'an stepped forward, preparing to take the unconscious Xia Ningxi.

Before Yang Yuean could even touch Xia Ningxi, a pair of long, strong arms caught the unconscious Xia Ningxi in their embrace.

Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment, but he couldn't worry about anything else because there was still some work to be done and he had to go back and deal with it immediately.

After handing Xia Ningxi over to Huo Nanxiao, Zhao Qian returned to the emergency room.

Yang Yuean had already raised his hand, but he froze in mid-air the moment he saw Huo Nanxiao hug Xia Ningxi. He didn't know whether he should snatch Xia Ningxi away.

When Yang Yuean noticed that everyone around him was looking at Huo Nanxiao with very strange eyes, he knew that Huo Nanxiao's actions would bring unnecessary trouble to Xia Ningxi.

"Young Master Huo, leave the person to me. I'll take Dr. Xia back to rest," Yang Yue'an offered.

Huo Nanxiao ignored him completely, picked up Xia Ningxi, and turned to leave!

This action finally made everyone lose their composure. Everyone was shocked and looked at the man's back as he carried Huo Nanxiao away in disbelief, deeply moved!

"Dr. Yang, what is Young Master Huo doing?" Su Huixue asked.

Yang Yuean said, "Dr. Xia has been taking care of Young Master Huo day and night these past few days. Young Master Huo must be worried about her health. I'll go check on her now."

Yang Yuean chased after him.

Huo Nanxiao walked very fast, but he didn't even realize that what he was doing would cause a huge sensation.

The entire hospital was stunned as Huo Nanxiao carried Xia Ningxi back to her ward in a princess carry, especially the people in her department, whose eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

"Dr. Yang, what's going on? Isn't Dr. Xia the one Young Master Huo is holding?"

What's going on with them?

"Wasn't Dr. Xia performing surgery on the young master of the Yu family? How did she end up in Young Master Huo's arms?"

"Are those two people...?"

The more people talked, the more outrageous their claims became.

"Nonsense! Dr. Xia just collapsed on the operating table from exhaustion, and you're saying such things? Don't you feel ashamed?"

After angrily cursing, Yang Yuean turned and left.

Huo Nanxiao settled Xia Ningxi in Huo Yuan's hospital room.

When Yang Yuean went over, Huo Nanxiao did not stop him, but instead asked him to give Xia Ningxi a check-up.

Yang Yuean said, "She's just exhausted and needs to rest. I'll prescribe some glucose for her."

“Okay.” Huo Nanxiao did not refuse.

Yang Yuean said, "There's an empty ward next door. I'll take Dr. Xia there."

"No need," Huo Nanxiao refused.

Yang Yuean said very seriously, "Young Master Huo, because of you, Dr. Xia has already been heavily criticized at the hospital. If she were to sleep here with you tonight, what would the people at the hospital say about her? Have you thought about that, Young Master Huo?"

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Huo Nanxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously, his lazy movements resembling those of a fierce cheetah.

Yang Yuean said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Dr. Xia needs to rest."

Huo Nanxiao was furious. "Get out!"

"Young Master Huo, you can't be so selfish. Dr. Xia has nothing to do with you. What you're doing will ruin Dr. Xia's reputation."

Yang Yuean had barely finished speaking when he was carried out by the Huo family.

Huo Nanxiao was furious, his handsome face filled with anger.

Huo Nanxiao had heard earlier that Xia Ningxi and this Dr. Yang were childhood sweethearts and had been flirting. Today, however, Yang Yuean actually dared to interfere with him.

"Xia Ningxi, you're really something!" Huo Nanxiao felt a fire burning inside him.

But Xia Ningxi had already fainted and couldn't hear Huo Nanxiao's words at all. Her peaceful sleeping face was full of exhaustion.

The eight-hour high-pressure surgery left Xia Ningxi almost exhausted. Even when she was asleep, her face was deathly pale and devoid of any color.

Huo Nanxiao was angry, but seeing Xia Ningxi so weak, he felt a mix of emotions.

He walked to the bedside and gazed intently at Xia Ningxi's haggard face, his heart inexplicably heavy.
