"Junmian, Xiaoguang, Luhan, Yifan, the four of you go back first." Jin Minzhi's voice broke the silence, with unquestionable fatigue and determination.
She looked at the four young boys, the worry and panic on their faces almost overflowing.
“Sister Minzhi, how can I leave when Yixing is in this condition?” Ouyang Guang’s voice was choked with suppressed sobs. He tried hard to control his tears from falling, but his red eyes betrayed him.
As he said this, he turned his gaze to Jin Minzhi, his eyes sharp and determined.
"I need to know how he is. I can't go back home with him alone."
Jin Junmyeon took a deep breath and tried to stabilize the situation.
“Sister Minzhi, we know you’re worried about us, but Yixing… the way he looked just now…”
His throat rolled over and he couldn't speak anymore. Zhang Yixing's voiceless pain and cold sweat were engraved in everyone's mind like a brand.
Kim Min-ji looked at them and understood their feelings, but as the person in charge, she had to consider more.
"I know, I know you're worried about Yixing. Me too!"
"But it's no use for you to stay here and worry. I'll tell you when the results come out."
She paused, and her tone softened and soothing.
"Besides, Yixing's back injury is no small matter, he may need to rest and receive treatment later. You still have rehearsals, you need to rest, you need to stay in shape. If you also collapse and Yixing knows about it, how upset he will be? The first thing he will do when he wakes up is to worry about whether you are tired and whether you have delayed your work!"
"You guys go back! I'll stay!" Ouyang Guang decisively interrupted Jin Minzhi's next words, his voice carrying an almost paranoid stubbornness.
He stepped in front of Kim Min-ji, his eyes burning, with no intention of backing down.
"Sister Minzhi, I don't understand what you mean. But I can't do it! My brother is alone in there now, and we just saw how much pain he is in! I... I can't just walk away and leave him alone in this cold hospital!"
Kim Min-ji frowned, trying to persuade this usually calm child.
"Xiao Guang, listen! What else can you do here besides worrying? You need to rest!"
"I won't do anything! I'll just sit here and wait!" Ouyang Guang raised his voice with a stubbornness unique to young men, and his eyes turned red!
"I won't make any noise or trouble. I'll just wait quietly! If my brother wakes up, he'll see familiar people at first sight. Isn't that right? Sister Minzhi, please! Let me stay... I promise not to cause any more trouble!" There was a barely perceptible pleading tone in his voice, and his fingers were tightly clenched around the corner of his clothes.
Seeing Ouyang Guang almost collapse, Jin Junmian's heart softened. He looked at Jin Minzhi: "Sister Minzhi...how about letting Xiaoguang stay? They have such a good relationship. If he goes back, he will definitely be restless. It will be even more uncomfortable."
Lu Han also echoed in a low voice: "Yes, Sister Minzhi, let Xiaoguang stay with us. If he stays, we can feel more at ease when we return to Dong."
Wu Yifan also looked at Kim Min-ji, and although he didn't say anything, his eyes expressed the same meaning.
Kim Min-ji looked at Ou Yangguang's attitude of "If you don't agree, I'll fight you to the end", then looked at his red eyes that were trying hard to hold back the tears, then looked at the pleading eyes of the other three people, and sighed deeply.
She knew that forcibly driving Ouyang Guang away would only make him more out of control, and he might even sneak back.
"...Okay," Jin Minzhi finally compromised, but her tone was serious, "Xiaoguang, you can stay, but you must abide by a few points: First, keep absolutely quiet and don't disturb the doctors and nurses; second, don't try to break into the emergency room; third, sit here and wait, close your eyes and rest when you are tired, don't force yourself; fourth, if there is any situation, tell me the first time, don't move without permission! Can you do it?"
"I promise!" Ouyang Guang immediately nodded rapidly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Jin Minzhi rubbed his brows helplessly and turned to the other three people: "Then you three, go back home immediately. Have a good rest when you go back home, and don't delay the rehearsal tomorrow. I will inform you immediately if there is any news."
In the empty and cold corridor, only Jin Minzhi and Ouyangguang were left. The smell of disinfectant seemed to be stronger.
Ouyang Guang sat on a cold plastic chair, his hands clasped tightly together on his knees, his body leaning forward, all his attention focused on the little light shining through the gap in the emergency room door, and the faint sounds of instruments and whispers coming from inside the door, which were obscured by the door panel.
He was like a frozen watchman, motionless, with only his slightly trembling shoulders revealing his great uneasiness and anxiety.
Kim Min-ji leaned against the opposite wall, looked at Ouyang Guang's stubborn back, and closed her eyes tiredly.
She knew that this long wait had just begun. A heavier cloud was weighing heavily on everyone's heart.
With two members injured and hospitalized one after another, can EXO still make it through smoothly?
