Chapter 504: A Peaceful Survival
When Lu Zhanlin finally saw Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao, it was in the hospital.
There was no so-called telepathy or extraordinary prediction. It was just a very simple development. Xu Feng drove to the fire scene first and heard about the general course of events from the onlookers.
Especially after hearing about Chu Yue's heroic feat of rescuing two children from the fire.
"How could there be two children?" Xu Feng asked subconsciously. They thought that there was only one child, Lu Yuanbao, and they didn't know that there was also another child, Pei Tianci.
Even in his haste, Lu Zhanlin didn't think that it might be Pei Tianci.
Then they heard that Chu Yue and the children had been sent to the hospital, so they turned around quickly and rushed to the hospital.
In the hospital.
"Where are the patients who were just brought in from the fire? Where are they now? Which ward are they in? Are their lives in danger?"
"Go to the end of the front, it's the second ward on the left, the patient is..."
Before the nurse on duty could finish her words, two tall figures rushed out in front of her. Their footsteps were so heavy and muffled that almost the entire corridor shook.
Lu Zhanlin opened the door with a heavy heart, and what he saw was not separation of life and death, nor heartbreaking sadness.
Everything seemed normal. Lu Yuanbao was sitting awake on the hospital bed. There was a washbasin next to the bed with some warm water in it. Chu Yue soaked a towel in the warm water, and then used the wet towel to wipe Lu Yuanbao's face bit by bit, wiping off the stubborn traces of black smoke on his face.
This scene was so peaceful and tranquil that Lu Zhanlin and Xu Feng both widened their eyes at the same time.
Everything is fine, but why is it so different from what they imagined?
"Why are you here?"
Chu Yue put down the wet towel in her hand and looked back at the two stunned men. She didn't expect Lu Zhanlin and Xu Feng to appear so soon.
There were no telephones in those days, so how did they get notified so quickly?
Chu Yue would never have thought that Lu Zhanlin's abnormal behavior was just because of an ominous premonition in his heart.
Lu Zhanlin lay motionless, holding the door handle of the ward with one hand and clenching his fist with the other. He had never let go of his hand from beginning to end. Even when he saw Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao were safe and sound, he still couldn't completely let go.
So in the end, Xu Feng reacted faster.
He quickly came back to his senses and said in surprise, "Sister-in-law, are you and Yuanbao... okay?"
When Chu Yue heard this, she immediately understood why Lu Zhanlin and Xu Feng were acting abnormally. They were frightened.
She endured the pain in her throat and smiled, then said in a dry voice, "You saw the grocery store on fire and thought Yuanbao and I were seriously injured and lying in bed dying?"
Isn’t it…supposed to be…like this?
This is the most popular way to portray it in novels and movies.
Chu Yue's smile remained relaxed. After patting Lu Yuanbao's head, she said, "Don't worry, Yuanbao and I are fine. We just inhaled some smoke in the fire, and my throat feels a little uncomfortable."
"Dad, Uncle Xu, Mom and I are fine. You can see I'm fine now."
Lu Yuanbao spoke at this time, his voice was as dry as Chu Yue's, not as clear as before.
He had fainted in a fire not long ago, but Chu Yue rescued him and sent him to the hospital. After a checkup, he was found to be in no danger of life. The most serious injury on his body was the blisters caused by sparks.
The follow-up treatment of the burns should have been the responsibility of the nurse on duty, but coincidentally, the nurse on duty recognized Chu Yue at a glance because she had previously treated Ye Xiaoman. The nurse on duty was deeply impressed by Chu Yue, who had superb medical skills.
Therefore, she simply gave the medical tools to Chu Yue and let Chu Yue directly treat the blisters and bandage the wounds.
After all, for Chu Yue, letting her handle it herself would make her feel more assured and at ease.
It was while bandaging Lu Yuanbao's wound that Chu Yue confirmed that Lu Yuanbao was really alive and well and there was no need for her to scare herself.
As for Lu Yuanbao, although he was just a little kid, he had experienced so much in the past six months...
From small things like witnessing Chu Yue saving people, from Wang Chunling to Fang Xiuli; to big things like fighting with the devilish Principal Feng and brushing shoulders with death with a ferocious tiger.
Some people's life experiences are not as much as Lu Yuanbao's.
He has a big heart hidden in his small body.
At the fire scene, the moment he saw Chu Yue appear, Lu Yuanbao knew that he no longer had to worry because his mother would definitely rescue him.
Everything that happened afterwards was just as Lu Yuanbao had expected.
When he woke up again, he was already in a safe hospital and smelled the familiar disinfectant. Chu Yue often had this smell on her body. After Lu Yuanbao smelled it many times, he didn't find it unpleasant at all. Instead, it gave him a sense of security.
When Chu Yue was picking the blister, she asked him with concern, "Does it hurt?"
Lu Yuanbao shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt at all," and he could even smile happily at Chu Yue.
This calm mind is even better than that of the adult Chu Yue.
They are a close mother and son, and their emotions influence each other. It is also because Lu Yuanbao recovered quickly that Chu Yue also recovered from the huge impact of the fire.
Lu Yuanbao's bright dark eyes looked at the motionless Lu Zhanlin and Xu Feng, calmly and naturally.
Such a contrast makes the two grown men look "fragile" and "panic".
After listening to what Lu Yuanbao said.
Xu Feng scratched the back of his head and uttered slowly, "...it's true. I was saying that, sister-in-law just saved so many people not long ago, and you, Old Lu, did the same, saving so many disaster victims. You two have done so many good things, even if the King of Hell wants to take someone away, he won't take your child. I'm glad you're okay! I'm glad you're okay!"
Lu Zhanlin took a heavy step forward, approached Chu Yue, and asked again in a low voice to confirm, "Are you really okay?"
"Of course it's okay, I'm just talking to you."
Chu Yue responded softly to Lu Zhanlin's concern.
Lu Zhanlin still had his brows furrowed tightly, and never relaxed.
At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door.
"Sister Ayue, I'm back..." Ye Zhaodi walked back in a hurry. She was holding a thermos, two enamel cups, and a black glass bottle in her hands. Her hands were full and she didn't push the door empty-handed.
Xu Feng, who was near the door, reacted quickly and opened the door immediately when he heard Ye Zhaodi's voice.
Ye Zhaodi wanted to open the door with her shoulder, but she didn't expect there was someone in the ward. Her force was in vain, and her body tilted and she almost fell to the ground.
She was startled and her eyes widened.
Xu Feng didn't expect it to turn out like this. He let go of the door and quickly reached out to hug Ye Zhaodi and the thing in Ye Zhaodi's arms, shaking and making crackling sounds.
