Chapter 55 Chapter 55 The fire scene incident...
The investigation of the fire scene was very clear. There was naturally no fire escape in the illegal building. Once the fire started, it was unstoppable. Not only did it burn down the playground, but the surrounding houses were also affected by the fire.
This was a major case in the local area and was reported extensively in the news.
Jin Man sat on the bed, and when he heard the death toll, he pulled the thin quilt tightly with his fingers imperceptibly.
The nurse noticed his nervousness and said gently, "Did it hurt?"
Jin Man shook his head. He was nervous not because of the pain.
The nurse fell silent with understanding. Many people will have various psychological problems after being on the verge of death.
"You will be discharged from the hospital soon."
Jin Man turned toward the source of the voice. His face was bandaged and he looked very ill. "Thank you."
The nurse pushed the ward round cart. Alpha not only had gauze wrapped around his cheeks, but also around his neck. That was where the glands and vocal cords were located. Damage to the glands was more troublesome for Alpha.
She sighed softly and left.
Jin Man pretended not to hear the sigh. He groped his way out of bed. The nurse had familiarized him with the structure of this ward before, and he remembered where the bathroom was.
Jin Man walked along the wall and slowly touched the handrail.
The completely dark world brought a certain degree of panic. He could no longer remember how old he was the last time he felt so helpless.
The water in the ward was dripping.
The doctor scanned around and didn't find any patients. The Omega who came in with him changed his expression slightly and strode towards the bathroom.
He followed closely behind, but the door slammed shut.
The doctor pushed his glasses and knocked on the door politely: "Mr. Lu, how is the patient? Do you need me to call someone?"
The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and the foggy glass window reflected the entangled figures in the sunlight. Not long after, the door opened. Lu Yanlin lowered his head and carried the person out of the bathroom. The other person was probably unwilling, but his vision was impaired and he had no way to resist.
"The gauze on his face is wet."
The doctor immediately pressed the call bell, saw the blood on the gauze, and reminded: "Let me come, you are injured too."
Jin Man paused, he was surprised and confused, his fingers touched the cold suit.
Lu Yanlin gave the doctor a warning look. The doctor blinked, took the patient from the Omega, and put him on the bed. The nurse came over quickly to help them change the gauze.
"The test results are out, temporary optic nerve suppression and chemical ocular surface damage.
During this period, you should avoid strong light stimulation, avoid rubbing your eyes, and receive treatment on time."
Jin Man frowned, the gauze on his face had been replaced with a brand new one: "How long will the recovery period take?"
The doctor said: "It's hard to say, it depends on how well he recovers, maybe about a month and a half."
“Will it have a big impact on your eyesight?”
"It's hard to say, but I've seen many cases of this kind. A few with a poor recovery period can lead to blindness, a few have blurred vision, and most are normal. It depends on the recovery period. Since you're an Alpha, you can get pheromone-assisted treatment, which may help you recover better."
Jin Man didn't move. Lu Yanlin couldn't tell his emotions, but he just felt that he seemed to have something he didn't want to say.
In fact, the recovery period is not too long, and getting this result is a blessing in disguise.
The doctor said: "If you are really uncomfortable or have vomiting or nausea, you can be prescribed a pheromone soothing patch."
Jin Man suddenly said, "I can't smell pheromones."
The ward suddenly fell silent. Jin Man couldn't see it, but he could feel the suffocating atmosphere.
Pheromones are AO's talent and instinct, just like no one will forget how to speak or how to walk.
So how come there is an Alpha that can't smell pheromones?
How is that different from beta?
The doctor was momentarily speechless due to shock, and the patient looked uneasy, only concerned about the most important question: "Is it serious? Will the lack of pheromones affect the visual recovery period?"
Not being able to have sex/make love with pheromones is not nearly as terrible as going blind.
Lu Yanlin stood up and said, "Let's go get checked first."
After a morning, all the test results came out, and they were not too bad.
Jin Man was taken back to the ward with the newly prescribed medicine. At this time, he didn't want to care about anything. If Lu Yanlin was willing, then let her be a nurse.
His memory was not bad, so he felt for the cup and drank some water.
This is not the hospital in the small town. From what the doctor said, he might have been taken to Bincheng while he was unconscious, a place Jin Man thought he would never return to in his life.
He felt very emotional, but he was not so sad knowing that there was a great hope for his eyes to be restored.
The side of the bed sank slightly, and he heard Lu Yanlin's voice: "At that time...you were away for more than ten days. Did you have surgery for pheromone disorder?"
Jin Man didn't want to recall this incident, but he couldn't avoid it: "Yes."
Logically speaking, this kind of concealment between partners is excessive. He chose not to inform Lu Yanlin at the time. In addition to panic, there was also a hint of childish revenge. He was retaliating against Lu Yanlin for making him lonely and wronged. He tried to hurt someone with guilt.
Unfortunately, the divorce came so suddenly that these little thoughts were drowned in anger and pain, seeming insignificant and pitiful.
Only those who have no love will hurt themselves to make the other person care.
No one spoke in the ward for a long time. Jin Man groped his way onto the bed, hugging his knees: "Lu Yanlin, I want to ask you a question."
Jin Man heard the sound of a chair being pulled away. From the moment he woke up until now, Lu Yanlin had been very gentle and polite. He did not have any unnecessary contact with Jin Man when he was not looking.
"Can."
Jin Man's eyes were filled with darkness. His back rested against the pillow, the soft touch offsetting his uneasiness. His expression was cold, but his voice was mixed with confusion and impatience: "I dreamed of you."
Lu Yanlin paused for a moment and asked softly: "I'm sorry?"
Jin Man laughed briefly, probably because he felt that the apology was inexplicable. But when he realized the caution and flattery in it, he found it incredible again.
He ignored the slight feeling in his heart and continued, "It wasn't a good dream... There was fire and blood everywhere, it was so hot, I kept running and running, Duoduo and Lu Zhi were about to die, and then someone pushed me hard... I ran out, but you didn't."
The ground was tilted, the sky was ablaze red, and thick smoke filled the air. He heard shrill screams and cries, and explosions.
Lu Yanlin was hit by something falling and his figure was swallowed by flames.
Jin Man had this dream repeatedly, and every time he woke up he felt a palpitation in his heart. He couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
Lu Yanlin sensed his uneasiness and trailed off with a smile, a slight laugh, but enough to make his otherwise indifferent tone seem different: "It's actually not bad, isn't it? I'm pushing you out, not dragging you in."
Jin Man was unhappy with his relief: "This is a nightmare."
Lu Yanlin was silent for a moment, and said gently: "But it sounds like everyone is alive except the people you hate."
Most people have a strong desire for revenge against their ex.
Jin Man: "I never thought of letting you die." He had seen danger and darkness, much worse than his ex-husband. Lu Yanlin could not actually be called a bad person.
"Thanks."
Lu Yanlin said after a long while.
Jin Man's medicine contained tranquilizers, and he fell asleep soon after taking it, breathing evenly. Perhaps those words had affected him, for at least he slept soundly, without frowning or groaning.
Lu Yanlin stood up and his eyes fell on the beach outside the hospital.
On the golden beach, the sun is as warm as a golden flame, and the sea is sparkling.
He didn't look for long, gently pulling the curtains shut, dimming the light in the room. He walked to the bedside, then bent down after a moment, looking at the young man in his arms. He lowered his eyes and kissed the Alpha's gauze-covered eyes gently, his expression filled with worry.
Yan Qiong rushed to the hospital, but was stopped by security on the fifth floor.
"What's the meaning!"
The man in the black suit was only following his employer's orders, and it wasn't illegal: "You need Mr. Lu's permission to enter or exit the fifth floor, ma'am."
Yan Qiong said angrily: "I am his mother, let him come to see me."
The man in the black suit mechanically repeated his request. Yan Qiong didn't expect that he would not be moved by her persuasion. If she could contact Lu Yanlin, why would she come all the way here? Wouldn't she be comfortable recuperating in the hot spring villa?
The door of the ward opened a crack, and a furry little head poked out.
When Lu Zhi saw Yan Qiong, his eyes lit up. He hadn't seen his grandmother for a long time. He pushed open the door and came out of the ward.
Yan Qiong suppressed her excitement and said, "Xiaozhi, come here."
Lu Zhi obediently walked over to let her hug him. The man in the black suit did not stop him. The employer only said that he was not allowed to go in, but they would not restrict him too much when the young master came out.
The fire was so terrible, but fortunately the children were okay.
Yan Qiong was still terrified and couldn't help but complain coldly, "Your father is so rude. He actually put you in danger for such a low-level Alpha. I can't allow this to happen again."
Usually, Yan Qiong will not change her decision for anyone.
The smile on Lu Zhi's face gradually disappeared: "Dad saved me, your words are too harsh."
Yan Qiong sneered, her cold face intimidating. "How dare you compare your life with that kind of person? He abandoned your father and you. From a family perspective, he's irresponsible. From a social perspective, he doesn't even have the right to be close to you. He put you in danger, and I'm supposed to be grateful to him?"
Lu Zhi looked at her speechlessly, a hint of disappointment flashing across his eyes.
To a certain extent, both Yan Qiong and Lu Yanlin are quite selfish people, and they rarely consider the feelings of others.
Even if they are his own relatives, he has no scruples.
The ward door opened again, and Duoduo, who couldn't find his friend, ran out.
The small shadow, like a rabbit afraid to leave its nest, pawing at the door frame anxiously: "Lu Zhi, Lu Zhi."
Lu Zhi looked over, suddenly struggled, and slipped out of Yan Qiong's arms.
Yan Qiong wanted to hold him back but was stopped by the bodyguard.
Lu Zhi held Duoduo's hand, and Duoduo complained listlessly: "Where have you been? I'm so scared."
Lu Zhi said: "Don't be afraid, go in."
He did not look back at Yan Qiong. People need to make many choices in their lives, and some choices will make them drift away from the people they were once familiar with. Lu Zhi is not an ordinary child, he understands this truth, but strangely, he hardly hesitates when making the choice.
