After Nie Xin came out of the operating room, she was transferred to a VIP ward. The ward had a large glass window, and Sang Qing sat outside the window, quietly watching Nie Xin lying on the bed, her calm expression concealing untold pain.
It was at this moment that she realized that a person under immense pain is incapable of making any response.
It can't cry, it can't laugh, it can't speak, it can't move.
She would just sit there like a wooden statue, staring at him, afraid of missing a single second.
The scene before Nie Xin fainted kept replaying in my mind...
He was covered in blood, but he held her hand with all his might, and then struggled to pull out a diamond ring and put it on her finger.
"I...I proposed..." Nie Xin's mouth was also filled with blood, and his words were slurred. "Sang Qing, don't be afraid...I will definitely live, and I still want to marry you..."
His words were incoherent, and Sang Qing felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
She looked down at her hands and saw that the large patches of blood had dried and turned dark red; it was all his blood.
He lost so much blood!
Sang Qing bit her lip tightly, wanting to cry but unable to. She looked at Nie Xin in the ward, and after a long while, her lips suddenly twitched and she smiled slightly.
"Uncle, you're a movie star...you're a great actor, aren't you?"
"So now, you're just putting on an act with me, aren't you?"
Jiang Can couldn't help but shed tears, and the others were also very sad, not knowing how to comfort her.
The surgery was performed by Yin Cheng, and the bullet was successfully removed, but Nie Xin lost too much blood.
Despite receiving a blood transfusion in time, he was unable to regain consciousness immediately. The longer he remained unconscious, the worse his condition would become.
At this moment, Yin Cheng walked over, sighed softly, and said to everyone in a low voice, "Everyone can go back and rest first. Brother Xin will receive the best care here."
Huo Zhixing asked worriedly, "When will he wake up?"
Yin Cheng glanced at him, then lowered her head. "I don't know..."
"How could you not know!" Yin Ruohong became furious. "You messed up such a simple surgery! You've disgraced the Yin family!"
"Dad!" Yin Cheng said innocently, "You studied traditional Chinese medicine, while I studied Western medicine! There are some things about Western medicine that you might not understand!"
Yin Ruohong's eyes widened. "What?"
"Anyway...anyway, you wouldn't understand!" Yin Cheng said vaguely, "Everyone should go back. Staying here won't help Brother Xin's situation much!"
"You little rascal, what are you up to?"
Yin Cheng's heart skipped a beat... No one knows a son better than his father. Pufferfish not only have spines, but their eyes are also poisonous!
But Xin-ge had never asked him for anything, except for this one thing.
"Sigh!" Yin Cheng sighed inwardly, feeling truly caught in a dilemma.
"Alright, alright, let's go back now!" Yin Cheng pushed him out, muttering to herself, "You don't understand Western medicine, you don't understand!"
Jiang Can and Huo Zhixing exchanged a glance, also sensing something was amiss, but Yin Cheng said nothing, only whispering to them to rest assured.
People left one after another, until only Sang Qing remained.
“Your Highness,” Yin Cheng came to her side, “you should go back and rest too! Brother Xin will be fine here.”
Sang Qing looked sad and did not react.
Yin Cheng coughed lightly, "Um... I have something to give you."
Sang Qing was taken aback. He took out a ring from his pocket, and the large diamond on the ring sparkled with dazzling light.
“When Xin was brought here, he was conscious for a while. After he went into the operating room, he handed this to me… He wanted to say something, but he didn’t. I thought this ring must be very important to you, so I brought it out and gave it to you.”
The ring was the same as the one on her hand, only one was bigger than the other; they were a pair.
If this unexpected event hadn't happened...
Sang Qing clutched the two rings, and thinking of how Nie Xin had desperately slipped the rings onto her finger after being shot, a sharp pain shot through her heart.
“He…” She opened her mouth, wanting to ask so many questions, but her throat felt blocked, and she couldn’t utter a single word.
Yin Cheng felt a pang of pity and could only vaguely say, "The bullet hit his shoulder, not a vital area, and he has already received a blood transfusion. He will wake up soon."
"real?"
"Yes, really."
"How long will that take?"
“This…” Yin Cheng hesitated.
My cousin didn't tell him how long it would take!
Honestly! He's always been an excellent student and an honest person, never lying, and the first time in his life he's ever lied was to a member of the royal family...
Yin Cheng touched his nose and scratched his head, his ears turning red. Finally, he forced a smile and answered irrelevantly, "He's just temporarily unconscious. He'll wake up soon, very soon..."
Sang Qing nodded, clenched the wedding rings in her hand, and squeezed them tightly.
Diamonds are the hardest substance; if you squeeze them hard, they can really hurt your hand.
But it is precisely because of its hardness that it is regarded by the world as a symbol of unwavering loyalty.
Sang Qing cheered herself up and forced a smile.
"Excuse me, may I go in and take care of him?"
Yin Cheng was taken aback. This line didn't seem to be in the script... But it doesn't matter, Nie Xin will definitely like this plot development!
“Actually, Your Highness, you don’t need to take special care of him,” Yin Cheng said politely. “Our hospital has the most professional doctors and nurses who will take good care of Xin-ge. Of course, since Your Highness is willing, I will arrange it right away!”
As soon as she said that, Yin Cheng ran off to find her a sterile suit.
Just as Sang Qing went to the nurses' station to change her clothes, Yin Cheng sent a voice message to Nie Xin from her office:
"Brother Xin, I've finished the mission ahead of schedule! His Highness is personally taking care of you now!"
"Um, can I leave now? I still have surgeries and ward rounds to do, I really can't get away!"
"Besides, I'm someone who has never lied before, and you're asking me to tell this outrageous lie... tsk tsk, you don't know, I don't even dare to look my dad in the eye!"
"But Brother Xin, the young princess is really good to you! She looks quite haggard, so you should know when to stop, okay?"
Nie Xin's phone was under her pillow. She took it out with her uninjured hand and listened to it one by one.
Then tears almost welled up in my eyes.
That incompetent Yin Cheng! Who told him to actually bring Sang Qing in here?
He clearly wanted Yin Cheng to exaggerate the situation to make the little girl worry, but not for too long, just until tonight!
But Yin Cheng actually...
"Brother Xin, did you hear the message I sent?" Yin Cheng sent another message.
"I heard you." Nie Xin practically spat out those words. "Thank you!"
"We're all family, no need to be so polite! Alright, Your Highness has changed your clothes, I'll let her in right away!"
Nie Xin quickly hid her phone.
It's all thanks to him... We could have wrapped filming up early, but now we have to make a sequel!
